"At that time, it was probably just after the Second Epoch War had ended, and the Abyss was sealed for the second time; the whole world was in a stage of destruction and resurgence."
"The fierce battles with the Abyss Will had also left me severely weakened, and I knew that if nothing unexpected happened, the next time the Abyss broke its seal would be the moment the Mystic Mechanism World would be devoured."
Uncle Orange's face showed a hint of reminiscence, as he tucked his fluffy paws inside his embrace, sitting on a bluestone and looking up at the sky.
"So, it was at this time that the Heavenly Dao from my homeland came looking for me?"
Liang Yi raised his eyebrows, tentatively asking.
"Hmm, I don't know how it found me, nor do I understand the mysterious ways in which it operates."
Uncle Orange nodded, still vividly remembering that scene.
But then Uncle Orange's gaze shifted, and his expression turned somewhat unnatural as he turned his head away from Liang Yi and continued:
"What we specifically discussed, I'm not quite sure. I only remember that after the negotiation, I chose to reincarnate into a Spirit Light of Heavenly Dao, was taken by the Heavenly Dao of the Heavenly Origin Land, and was thrown onto you. After that, when the right moment came, they sent you over."
"I see..."
Liang Yi had a thoughtful expression, completely unaware of Uncle Orange's odd behavior.
If his guess was correct, the game called "Mystical Mechanism" that he played in his previous life might have been created based on the Mystic Mechanism World in Uncle Orange's mind.
Although Uncle Orange had reincarnated and left, his nature as the Heavenly Dao of the previous Mystic Mechanism hadn't changed; perhaps there was still some connection with the Mystic Mechanism World?
The Heavenly Dao of Earth created a new game with such a Mystic Mechanism World as a kind of Golden Finger for him?
After all, for a realm capable of creating a virtual world and accelerating the flow of time, doing so wouldn't be a difficult task anymore, and it would also explain why there are differences in game progress compared to reality, and why many things in the game differ greatly from actuality.
"Ah... With so much effort put into preparing all this, wouldn't it be nice to just turn me into a Tenth Realm cultivator directly?"
Liang Yi ruffled his hair, lying back on the soft and cool lawn with a look of frustration, muttering to himself.
Uncle Orange glanced at Liang Yi sprawled in the shape of the character "big" on the ground, then agilely jumped down from the bluestone and squatted beside his head.
He knew that Liang Yi wasn't being greedy, but just casually venting.
"The Heavenly Dao of the Heavenly Origin Land managing to deliver an ordinary person intact from so far away is already a miracle. Now you want it to directly transform an ordinary person into a Tenth Realm powerhouse? You might as well start dreaming directly, meow."
"Ha ha, I was just saying it off the cuff."
Liang Yi let out a hearty laugh; regardless, Uncle Orange had helped him resolve a knot in his heart this time, and that was a big help.
"In the Void, worlds with a strength limit of the Tenth Realm are few and far between; most worlds have personal strength limits around the First or Second Realm. Just be content."
Uncle Orange rolled his eyes.
"Thinking about it, my homeland really is quite an anomaly..."
Liang Yi pondered; in his previous life on Earth, life was indeed filled with nothing but ordinary people. Logically, even if the Heavenly Dao of such a world was strong, it couldn't be too powerful.
However, according to what Uncle Orange said, even among the Void, Earth's Heavenly Dao was of Overlord Level, which was quite preposterous.
"Who knows what kind of genius thought this up..."
Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, falling on Liang Yi, and when a breeze fluttered by, the light between the leaves shimmered like glittering glass, causing Liang Yi to involuntarily squint his eyes.
Having been previously overwhelmed by various problems since the great war, Liang Yi could finally let go of them for a moment.
Although there were still a plethora of issues he hadn't figured out, and despite the looming threat of the Abyss Will, Liang Yi felt better than ever before.
"If my junior sister were here, that would be nice. Her lap pillows are the best in the world."
Basked in the sunlight, Liang Yi unconsciously mumbled to himself.
