After this explanation, Bai Qi understood.
Though he didn't know why the man named Dong Ji built this small hut, or how he knew about the system on his person, the fact was that with the Tarot cards he received, Bai Qi now had the qualifications to enter the void and intrude upon other worlds. Moreover, with Belial and Gatanothor, two seasoned veterans of the void, Bai Qi could acquire a lot of knowledge about it.
After chatting with the others for a while longer, everyone rose and returned to their respective worlds.
While the hut was nice, one couldn't stay there forever. Bai Qi still had the crucial mission of saving the world and spreading the dark energy. The others also had their tasks.
After consuming his original world, Gatanothor had been searching for the next suitable planet in the void. According to Gatanothor, he had devoured three planets and five civilizations during his time in the void, but none of them tasted as good as Earth.
As for Belial, he also had his own agenda: the destruction of the Land of Light.
One must understand that as protagonists, it is often easier for them to break free from the shackles of fate than for villains. This is because, in the end, most villains are killed by protagonists. The protagonists who eliminate these stepping stones often reach the peak of power in their respective worlds. When a world can no longer contain such a protagonist, it will, to prevent itself from being dragged down, directly cast the protagonist into the void.
At this point, the protagonist is faced with only two paths: either help the world plunder other worlds in the void to expand its own carrying capacity, or wander endlessly in the void.
Ultramen, as embodiments of light and symbols of justice, could hardly become bandits or engage in unrighteous acts.
Therefore, the Ultramen across the multiverse, after deliberation, arrived at a conclusion.
Take Tiga as an example.
In countless multiverses, there exist numerous Tiga. As their respective storylines conclude, they face the world's mission: either to plunder other worlds or be exiled. To prevent a large number of Tiga from appearing in the void, and given that some Tiga are unwilling to leave their own worlds or become bandits,
Finally, one strongest Tiga is chosen among them to enter the void. The other Tiga transfer their excess energy to the void-dwelling Tiga, thereby reducing the pressure on their own worlds.
This applies not only to Tiga but also to Taro, Zero, and other Ultramen.
These Ultramen gathered in the void, established a new Land of Light, and continued to help the weak and uphold justice in the void.
Belial, as a transcended being, although he had destroyed the Land of Light in his own world once, it did not diminish his inner hatred for it. Moreover, having lost his objective, he briefly became aimless.
Now, there was a Land of Light in the void, giving Belial a clear target: its destruction.
However, because the Land of Light in the void was a convergence of the strongest individuals from each Ultraman, its power far surpassed that of the Land of Light in Belial's original world.
But this was all the better; the stronger it was, the greater the joy of its destruction. Furthermore, Belial thoroughly enjoyed the process of preparing to destroy the Land of Light.
Belial now needed to continue his preparations to destroy the Land of Light.
Returning to his original world.
The moment he stepped out of the wooden door, the dark energy and the system re-established contact with Bai Qi.
This long-lost feeling brought Bai Qi immense peace.
Checking the time, indeed, not even a minute had passed.
However, the difference was that upon exiting the small hut, the system had quietly completed an upgrade and bound itself with the Divine Light Mirror and the Tarot cards.

Bai Qi briefly scanned the new missions. There were over forty new missions, spanning more than four pages, with varying scales. Some, like universe A919, had extremely high upper limits, while others, like universe E657, had lower ones.
However, these missions from different universes shared a common characteristic: more or less, problems had arisen, causing the plot to deviate from its original trajectory.
What Bai Qi had to do was enter these universes, correct the chaos, and bring everything back to the right track.
Unlike Bai Qi's previous missions, these spacetime missions were not mandatory. This meant Bai Qi could choose to accept them or not, entirely at his discretion.
