Chapter 1909 The "Past" Marked by Both Light and Darkness: An Era About to End

Chapter 1909 The "Past" Marked by Both Light and Darkness: An Era About to End
Although the method that came from the "future," from an unknown timeline completely hidden by the "veil," was merely to forcibly "give" him a memory.

The parallel world corresponding to that "future path method," which carries the origin of its existence, has been hidden and isolated by a force that even he cannot fathom.

But is there really no connection between the two?
it's not true.

The transmission of memories, especially those imprinted with strong emotions, obsessions, and power, is itself a profound "cause and effect," an invisible yet resilient "thread"!
It forcibly connects the "past" and the "future".

More importantly, that memory contains traces of "extraordinary power" and a vague understanding of "the myriad worlds".

This is as if a special "mark" has been left on this young Lufa.

Although it is impossible to directly locate or connect to the hidden "source world" through him, he himself has become a "special point" that is related to this matter, has had contact with the "alien force", and may even have another interaction with it in the future!
Given this, it seems like a very "worthwhile" thing to lay a "piece" in advance and make some "investments".

The Dark Emperor's "thoughts" stirred slightly.

The "dark mark" that had already condensed and taken shape floated out from the depths of the dark swamp, and along the causal path of that newly formed "tributary," it drifted unstoppably toward the "present" point in time, which was Ares where the young Lufa was.

He will integrate this mark into his "world," into some "things" he may come into contact with in the future, or into the dark seeds that sprout in the depths of his heart due to memories of the "future."

It will lie dormant, waiting for the right opportunity to amplify the negative, to induce depravity, and to subtly change certain seemingly insignificant "choices," so that in the long future, the trajectory of this "pawn" will be more inclined towards darkness and more "convenient" for His observation and exploitation.

But just as this "dark mark" was about to fully integrate into that timeline branch and begin its subtle infiltration and planning, another incredibly "distinctive" fluctuation appeared in the Dark Emperor's "perception".

It was a pure "mark of light" formed from the condensation of light and order.

It has already landed in the "cosmic bubble" corresponding to this newly formed tributary, or more precisely, it has landed on that blue planet, at a certain latitude of Earth.

That was the work of the Emperor of Light.

Sure enough, that guy noticed him too.

The Dark Emperor was not surprised by this.

On the contrary, when His "perception" confirmed the existence of the "mark of light", a "smile" full of mockery and amusement appeared on His face.

it is as expected.

How could the bright side, which wants to "protect everything" and "maintain balance," possibly remain indifferent to such obvious "variables" involving "extraordinary forces" and "time-space reversal"?
He left the "mark of light" perhaps to "observe," to "mark," and to maintain a certain bottom line of "order" amidst the chaos that this "variable" might cause.

Perhaps it is also a kind of "investment", hoping that this path, which has been impacted by memories of the "future", will eventually lead to a relatively "bright" path.

What a "correct" and "natural" approach!

But in the eyes of the Dark Emperor, this precisely shows that the light side also values this "variable" and sees some kind of "value" or "potential threat" in this young Lufa.

This is even more interesting.

A chess piece is "marked" by two opposing players on the chessboard at the same time.

This in itself has already destined his future path to be filled with twists and turns and choices far beyond his own imagination.

For the Dark Emperor, the intervention of the light side has made this "game" even more "exciting".

Let's see whose "mark" has a greater influence on him.

Let's see whose "guidance" is more likely to lead him in the direction he desires.

Let's see which side this "chess piece" will ultimately fall to in this silent tug-of-war between light and darkness.
Or, could we find a third way out of this tug-of-war that would surprise both sides?
That would be even more "interesting".

The Dark Emperor's "smile" seemed to deepen slightly.

He incorporated that "dark mark" into that newly formed tributary of timeline.

Unlike the landing point of the "Mark of Light", the "landing point" of the Mark of Darkness focuses more on the threads of "cause and effect" and "fate" of Lufa himself, especially those related to "hatred", "power" and "strength".

Having done all this, the Dark Emperor's "gaze" swept one last time over the tributary marked by both light and darkness, and over the young figure within it who knew nothing of this and was plotting for Ares's power.

Then, it slowly withdrew.

The pieces have been placed, the game has been set.

Now, all we need to do is wait and see.

Armor Universe, a parallel universe completely different from the "past" world marked by both light and darkness, is the "present" where the future path exists.

Accompanied by a dark purple spatial rift, the Asura Armor stepped out.

Behind him, the crack closed quickly, leaving no trace.

Lu Fa dispelled the Shura Armor, and the dark purple light faded like water, revealing his face.

He was naturally unaware that after he left, his younger self was simultaneously "targeted" by those two "emperors" of light and darkness from the multiverse level.

Unbeknownst to them, the timeline they inhabited had long been "hidden" by a force that even the "Emperor" could not fathom, thus isolating them from the tracing efforts of the two "Heavenly Dao" incarnations.

After all, the existence and nature of "chat groups" are far beyond the reach of "emperors".

A truly complete "world will" is one that is aware of its existence and even has connections or transactions with the chat group.

However, neither the Emperor of Light nor the Emperor of Darkness is considered by the "chat group" to be the complete "world will" of the "Armor Universe".

They are merely two sides of the "Way of Heaven," the embodiment of rules, and the ultimate power, but not the "collection of wills" of the "world" itself, which gives birth to, encompasses, and records everything, and is more fundamental and grand.

Therefore, they were unaware of the existence of the "chat group".

Lufa was unaware of all of this.

But none of that mattered to him.

The important thing is that he's back.

They have returned from that exhilarating revenge, the one they had waited a thousand years for.

Standing on the ground, Lufa let out a deep breath.

This breath seemed to release all the pent-up frustration, hatred, resentment, and violence that had been building up in his chest for thousands of years.

My tense nerves finally relaxed.

The fire of revenge that had been burning deep within his soul seemed to gradually die out with the demise of King Peel.

He raised his hand, looking at the palm that had just killed King Peel with a single punch.

The fingertips seemed to still retain the subtle tactile sensation of destructive energy penetrating matter and annihilating existence.

That feeling was truly incredibly pleasant.

Yes, it was pleasant.

A pure and unparalleled joy.

It was like drinking a thousand-year-old poison, burning the throat and stinging the bones, yet bringing a morbid satisfaction and pleasure that went straight to the depths of the soul.

The corners of his mouth involuntarily curled upwards.

It started as a tiny arc, then gradually expanded, and finally turned into a loud laugh.

"Hehehehehe. Hahahaha!!!"

Amidst the laughter, there was the exhilaration of revenge, the relief of finally ending a thousand-year obsession, and a hint of indescribable satisfaction.

That scene seemed to reappear before his eyes.

King Peel's face was streaked with tears, filled with fear and humble pleading; his own feet pounded on the chest, feeling the body tremble humbly with fear.

And finally, with that punch, watching his existence vanish into nothingness in that instant.

That feeling of controlling everything, judging everything, and ending everything; that feeling of unleashing a thousand years of hatred.
That's really great.

It was so good that he even felt that all the exile, war, killing, and all the pain and loneliness he had endured over the past thousand years had received a distorted yet real "reward" at this moment.

The laughter gradually subsided.

Lufa slowly put away his smile, but the long-standing gloom and resentment between his brows seemed to have truly dissipated.

Instead, there is a sense of ease, as if it were a "rebirth".

The revenge is over.

An era seems to have come to an end.

So, what should he do next?

Ares?
That "past" Ares is no longer relevant to him.

He personally changed that place, and he also personally severed most of the causal links between that "past" and the future belonging to the "young Lufa".

He didn't care what would happen there, or where that "self" would go; he didn't need to care.

The Netherworld Legion?

His brothers, in this timeline, also had their own lives because of his orders.

A thousand years of hatred, a thousand years of war, a thousand years of exile and slaughter not only exhausted his strength, but also left his brothers who swore to follow him to the death exhausted.

They need rest, a period of peace away from the flames of revenge.

However, there was one thing he absolutely had to do.

He slowly raised his head, his gaze seemingly piercing through endless void, and directed towards a familiar direction.

That was the location of Ares in his timeline.

In this world, King Peel has stepped down, but "stepping down" does not mean "dying".

Is the man who betrayed him and plunged him and the entire Netherworld Legion into eternal damnation still alive in this world?

Are they still enjoying a luxurious retirement in some dark corner, or perhaps still secretly manipulating something?
He had to confirm that.

If they are still alive, kill them; if they are dead, then everything in the past will vanish.

But he needs to restore the honor of the Nether Legion.

Yes, honor.

For thousands of years, in their quest for revenge and to seize energy crystals, they have destroyed countless civilizations and committed heinous atrocities.

He cannot deny these things, nor can he deny them.

That was the path they chose themselves, a mad act committed while immersed in hatred and despair.

They acknowledge every single blood debt.

However, the fabricated charges that King Peel leveled against them, those dirty excuses used to frame them and cover up his own betrayal, should never have existed!
It is the greatest insult to their past loyalty, to their honor and dignity as soldiers!

They can admit that they are "Avengers," "Destroyers," or even "Sinners of the Universe."

But they would never admit to being "traitors"!
We will never admit to false charges that have been defined by others and used to cover up the truth!

He wanted King Louis of Ares to understand this.

He wanted Ares's historical records to completely erase those false accusations!

He wanted to clear the name of the Netherworld Legion.

It's not about the innocence of the act itself, but about the innocence of the "cause" and the "reputation"!
This is what he owes his brothers as the commander-in-chief of the legion.

It was also one of the few remaining responsibilities he had to fulfill after he had completed his personal revenge.

This can be seen as a true period to his and his brothers' past.

But let's take a break first.

Despite the enhanced Shura Armor and his strongest aura, which allowed him to maintain his formidable strength and clarity of mind after traversing time and fighting in the "past" Ares.

However, consumption still exists, and it is not insignificant.

Traveling through time is a huge burden on energy and will, let alone the fact that he went to a thousand years ago and made such a drastic intervention.

He needs some time to fully recover his strength and regroup.

Moreover, even at his peak, he couldn't have gone directly to Ares.

Although the armor was powerful, his own strength was not enough to support such a long "transfer".

More importantly, he also wanted to lead the entire Netherworld Legion to accomplish all of this.

Instead of being alone.

This is not just his business, but the business of the entire Netherworld Legion!
It is the story of all the soldiers who suffered humiliation, were exiled to the stars, and gave everything because of that false charge!
Honor requires them to fight for it together.

Their innocence needs to be witnessed by all of them.

They should all work together to draw this final period.

"Let's check the chat group first."

"Let's see whether we use the shuttle talisman or the Afas."

"However, if we use the Afas, we'll probably have to go to war anyway."

Lu Fa thought to himself, but then felt a little self-deprecating.

Given their current status, what method could they use to avoid a war?
He shook his head and focused his attention on the chat group.

The oldest god-slayer: "What? Are you blind? Didn't my group name appear before my message?"

The oldest god-slayer: "Do I need to confirm that I insulted you?"

The oldest god-slayer: "If you want to confirm, I'll say it again: Loki, you're a coward."

"."

Lufa: "???"
