When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 1090 414: Strongest Demon Armor 3

"Even the Time Tunnel cannot withstand the cosmic powers of two individuals. If the Time Tunnel is destroyed, the world will collapse even more severely. Are you sure you want to fight there?" Li Boyang walked leisurely and soon arrived at the entrance of the Time Tunnel.

Li Xiu entered the Time Tunnel without saying a word, ignoring Li Boyang.

Li Boyang wasn't in a rush, following him into the Time Tunnel.

"Is what Li Boyang said true?" Jiang Lanling approached Belona and asked while looking at her.

Belona said bitterly, "Perhaps it's even worse than he says."

"Why?" Jiang Lanling asked, puzzled.

"We are not cosmic level beings, unable to understand how strong such powers truly are. Whether they could directly shatter the world or to what extent we cannot predict. But both of them have fused the Spirit Suppressing Stone within their bodies. A full-force battle will inevitably lead to the destruction of the world." The Gentleman Ancestral Spirit explained.

Jiang Lanling understood what he meant. The Spirit Suppressing Stone acts as a catalyst for this world; theoretically speaking, once the stone is completely consumed, the world should evolve into a complete state.

Now that both of them have divided the Spirit Suppressing Stone, if they have fully absorbed its power, their combined strength will undoubtedly exceed the total power that the world can bear.

So theoretically, their battle will certainly lead to world collapse.

"Even more tragic is that because they absorbed the Spirit Suppressing Stone, this world hasn't evolved completely and lacks the ability to self-repair. Once destroyed, the world order will be utterly destroyed, the power system will collapse, and cultivation will be impossible. Even if by chance, some beings survive, it would be hard to continue living in such a destroyed world; extinction is merely a matter of time." Belona said.

What she described closely resembled the scenes Li Xiu saw in the theater of life.

"So, what Li Boyang said is true, once Li Xiu fights him, regardless of victory or defeat, it's akin to losing." Jiang Lanling exclaimed.

She wasn't afraid of death herself, but she didn't want her child to perish with this world.

"This battle will be difficult for Li Xiu, unless..." Belona didn't finish her sentence.

But Jiang Lanling already understood her meaning, unless Li Xiu is willing to sacrifice himself and forego battle, this world will surely be destroyed.

"To give up one's life to save the world, easy to say, incredibly hard to actually do..." Jiang Lanling sighed.

For Li Xiu to reach this stage of cultivation, he must be a person with a steel-like resolve. To ask him to give up his life for others, not only is it something Li Xiu cannot do, Jiang Lanling herself cannot do it either.

The old male ancestral spirit fiercely took a drag of his cigarette, slowly exhaling smoke and said, "I wish Li Xiu wouldn't hold back and just kill Li Boyang. Without the Spirit Suppressing Stone, this world already has no future. Why linger miserably when he might as well pave a future, venture into the so-called main universe, if only to carve a path for this world, leaving behind a legacy."

"Easy to say, but I fear he might not win." The tower-like ancestral spirit replied.

"Impossible, impossible, this path cannot be taken. The world shatters, billions of demon spirits extinct, and other humans will surely perish too. Simply preserving one person isn't worth it...not worth it..." another female ancestral spirit shook her head and said.

"Not worth it? If you had to choose, would you choose to sacrifice yourself for billions?" The old male ancestral spirit sneered.

"Of course not, but Li Xiu might." The female ancestral spirit replied.

"Sure, if you yourself wouldn't make that choice, why assume Li Xiu would sacrifice himself?" the old man said with disdain.

"Perhaps he will, perhaps he won't. Since he hasn't chosen yet, we can do something to give him the chance to choose." the female ancestral spirit said.

"God of Love... What do you plan to do... don't forget... without Li Xiu... we'd still be trapped in the Time Tunnel, worse than dead..." Belona coldly stared at the female ancestral spirit.

"I said, just giving him a chance to choose." The God of Love ancestral spirit said blandly, her expression unchanged.

"What chance to choose?" Belona frowned.

All the ancestral spirits and Jiang Lanling looked at the God of Love, wanting to know what she intended to do.

They knew well that although the God of Love is an ancestral spirit, she is only of unparalleled level, which plays no role in such battles.

The God of Love spoke calmly, "If the world is truly to be destroyed, all beings should have the right to know, humans are no exception."

Her words were extremely cryptic, but all the ancestral spirits and Jiang Lanling heard her implicit meaning.

She intended to use Li Xiu's relatives and friends to pressure him, possibly inducing him to sacrifice himself to preserve the world.

"If you dare do this, I dare not." Belona looked at the God of Love with disdain and said, "Whatever Li Xiu chooses, I will accept."

"You can accept; can you represent all demons and humans to accept?" The God of Love said blandly.

Belona fell silent; she wasn't afraid of dying, but this wasn't about her life alone.

"Regardless, I won't do such a thing." Belona snorted coldly.

"And you all?" The God of Love looked at the other ancestral spirits.

The ancestral spirits were silent. If they had to put their own lives in Li Xiu's hands, many might not hesitate.

But now it's about the survival of the entire world and all demon spirits. Even those ancestral spirits most grateful to Li Xiu were now hesitant.

"Let's decide by voting." The God of Love remained expressionless, then raised her hand.

The ancestral spirits looked at one another, some continued in silence, while others slowly raised their hands.

Sixteen ancestral spirits, resulting in an eight-to-eight tie.

"How do you resolve a tie?" Belona sneered.

"Li Xiu is human, so the final decision should be left to humans themselves." The God of Love said without emotion, looking at Jiang Lanling.

Her implication was clear, putting the final vote in Jiang Lanling's hands.

The ancestral spirits all looked at Jiang Lanling, whose expression fluctuated, seemingly unable to decide.
