Chapter 894: 106 Ten-Year Restriction_4
Chapter 894: Chapter 106 Ten-Year Restriction_4
Ten seconds flashed by in an instant.
Within a 500-meter radius, there were still nearly three hundred people, each one a fourth-tier fighter, each carrying a strong self-confidence, wanting to see what Zhao Yu would do.
“I gave you the opportunity. If you can’t seize it, don’t blame me!”
Zhao Yu said indifferently and then raised his hand to snap his fingers.
“Snap~!”
The crisp sound echoed, and the whole place went silent.
“What’s going on?!”
People from afar looked at the situation in the center, not understanding the significance of Zhao Yu’s snap.
“It doesn’t seem to have any power, does it?”
“It looks like nothing happened!”
People at a distance were puzzled. After Zhao Yu’s snap, nothing seemed to have happened to the people around.
“Wait, something’s not right!”
Someone suddenly realized something and shouted out loud.
“Haven’t you noticed it’s too quiet inside?!”
“They were talking a lot just now, but now…”
The person who spotted something amiss stopped abruptly because the next scene made him gape, just like everyone else, completely frozen on the spot.
The fourth-tier fighters who were previously clamoring for Zhao Yu to hand over the treasure, at this moment, turned to dust as if they were eroded by the wind and were completely dispersed by a gentle breeze.
In the blink of an eye, the living figures from a second ago had vanished without a trace in the next second.
“This…”
“How is this possible?!”
Marquis Wei Wu was standing a kilometer away, staring dumbfounded at the scene.
He had come here with the intention of stepping in when Zhao Yu couldn’t hold on any longer, hoping to earn Zhao Yu’s gratitude for his help.
After all, blatant robbery was not his style, nor his way of behaving.
But now…
“Impossible, among that group, there were even four Marquises…”
Another ultimate fighter even stammered, awakened by this reality.
“Ultimate fighter?”
“No, he is at the pinnacle!”
“Even a pinnacle fighter wouldn’t win that cleanly…”
“Among those at the pinnacle, he can still prevail!”
All the ultimate fighters reacted, realizing that Zhao Yu was not just an ordinary fourth tier, not even a common ultimate fighter; he had crossed a great divide and become a pinnacle fighter.
Zhou Yiming stood out shakily, “Zhao Yu, have you… reached the pinnacle?!”
“Have you reached the pinnacle?!”
This question struck at the heart of everyone present.
In their world, nobody had ever reached the pinnacle.
Their world’s limit seemed to be just the ultimate fighter level, with the only hope perhaps lying in the foreign world, after all, there were many pinnacle fighters there.
But now, Zhao Yu’s emergence shattered everyone’s common sense.
“That’s right, I’ve reached the pinnacle!”
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, and it was only after ascending to the pinnacle that he deeply felt the force of the world and the shackles of some rules.
That is, in this world—or rather, for anyone branded by this world—breaking through from the fourth tier to the fifth is impossible.
Beyond that, what shocked Zhao Yu was that even at the pinnacle, he was unable to break the limitation or curse that the old citizens could only live for ten years.
“What exactly is this thing that’s like a law?!”
Zhao Yu was greatly shocked. Only after reaching the pinnacle did he vaguely perceive that this world was controlled by some power, or by the rules of the world.
It was as if the ten-year certain death for the old citizens was a rule akin to the law of universal gravitation, unbreakable by anyone.
Zhao Yu had no time to chat with others and soared into the sky, heading towards the Holy City.
He wanted to find a way to advance to the fifth tier.
In the following half a year, Zhao Yu traveled throughout the entire world, from the Holy City to remote little towns, and even ventured to the foreign territories several times.
But his efforts were fruitless.
Or rather, not entirely fruitless. After communicating with the ultimate fighters of the foreign realms, he clearly understood one thing.
That is, neither his world nor the other could advance to the fifth tier.
It was as if there were some rule in the universe restricting it.
Moreover, the points of light from the foreign world were found in the Heavenly Treasure Mirror by Zhao Yu. Like his own world, they were all tier-four and only required one hundred thousand Technology Points for transmission.
In terms of strength, Zhao Yu had reached the end, and he could be called the invincible tier-four fighter. In the process of competing with the pinnacle fighters from the foreign realm, he was able to take on three at once.
But at this moment, sweeping through the foreign realm wasn’t very significant, because for others to achieve the pinnacle, they inevitably had to accomplish something great.
As for Zhao Yu, he was an old citizen and could only live for ten years. The remaining nine years were insufficient for him to do anything significant.
What made Zhao Yu feel most powerless was that during this period, through the Heavenly Treasure Mirror, he visited several worlds of Tier 1, second-tier, Tier 3, and even tier-four.
However, no matter the world, he could not cultivate the Cultivation Technique of that world.
It was as if some barrier was blocking it, or perhaps the imprint of his own world was etched into him, unable to be removed.
“What on earth is going on with this world?!”
“And what’s the deal with these worlds in the Heavenly Treasure Mirror?!” Zhao Yu felt an unprecedented sense of confusion.
“Who set it up?!”
“And what is the purpose?!”
These were the questions he was pursuing, but he couldn’t find the answers.
Another half a year passed, and Zhao Yu finally connected with the consciousness of his other clones.
But what shocked him was that the Zhao Yu stationed at the Moon base, the original body, had died.
The time of death was precisely when he first encountered the Heavenly Treasure Mirror.
“King of Canaan… died of old age?!”
Zhao Yu did not expect that he had lived out his life in a place that seemed like an illusion and had inadvertently caused the death of his original body.
Furthermore, the other two clones had also reached the end of their tether.
“Has decades passed outside?!”
Zhao Yu didn’t expect that time here was different from the outside.
Only two years had passed inside, but outside decades had flown by, wearing down the two clones to near death.
“Damn it, if this continues, once they die, and my ten-year limit is reached, I’ll be dead too!”
For the first time, Zhao Yu felt panic.
In the past, he always felt that even if he died, it was okay, as long as the original body and other clones were there.
But now, influenced by him, his original body had prematurely died, and the clones were approaching the end of their lifespans.
“The only solution now is that one path…”
After deep consideration, Zhao Yu thought of a method.
That was to continue creating clones and have the new clones enter the sixth-tier world in the Heavenly Treasure Mirror.
Then, he would transfer there to assist the clone’s growth, hoping to extend his lifespan.
Of course, what was most important was that he wanted to figure out what was really going on.
Why there were such rules in a material world.
It seemed to involve the ultimate truth of the universe.
After prolonged communication with the system, Zhao Yu found the way to send clones into the sixth-tier world of the Heavenly Treasure Mirror.
The cost was three years of conquests across two worlds, plundering a large amount of resources.
“Only five years left, I hope I can find the clone and help it grow quickly…”
After sending the clone into one of the sixth-tier worlds within the Heavenly Treasure Mirror, Zhao Yu took one last look at the world he had spent five years in and resolutely activated the Heavenly Treasure Mirror to transport himself.
