Chapter 2384: A Terrifying Guess!

"What a unique existence! No wonder, no wonder I could never calculate you. Perhaps you truly are sent by heaven to save the human race from misery! My thousand years of waiting here have been worth it!" said the Mystic Mechanism Heavenly Sovereign.

Ye Yuan shook his head and said, "It's not me who will save the human race, Senior, but you!"

The Mystic Mechanism Heavenly Sovereign's pupils contracted sharply. Frowning, he said, "Do you know something?"

Ye Yuan nodded. "I think I do. It seems you've already begun to make your move. So, coming to see me this time—are you trying to recruit me?"

"How did you know?"

The Mystic Mechanism Heavenly Sovereign was greatly startled.

The existence of 'Godslayer' was an absolute secret; even among humans, very few knew of it.

He was certain that 'Godslayer' had never contacted Ye Yuan before. How did this kid find out?

Ye Yuan smiled. "Just consider it a guess."

The fact that he had traveled through time was simply too incredible.

Even the Space-Time Grand Ancestor Shang Heng could not easily traverse time.

So his journey back was definitely just an accident.

Probably, even Shang Heng hadn't foreseen it.

But to the Mystic Mechanism Heavenly Sovereign, these words only made things more mysterious.

His gaze darkened. "Fine, since you're unwilling to say, I won't press further. But I think our aspirations should be the same, shouldn't they?"

He had witnessed all of Ye Yuan's actions.

Seemingly bold but reckless, yet in truth meticulous.

More importantly, the impact of Ye Yuan's battle was far-reaching!

One could say that Ye Yuan had done everything 'Godslayer' found inconvenient to do!

Now, it was much easier for 'Godslayer' to carry out certain tasks.

Over the past millennium, although Jian Rufeng was not part of 'Godslayer', he had received news from there from time to time.

Ye Yuan's battle had a subtle but profound influence on people.

In previous understanding, the divine race was invincible.

But Ye Yuan's appearance shattered that curse completely.

He told the world that as long as your comprehension of laws was strong enough, you could defeat or even kill divine race experts!

And that was precisely why Ye Yuan had done it.

The human race was too ignorant; their perceptions had been clouded by the divine race. Someone needed to break that ingrained mindset.

Since no one else would do it, he would.

Ye Yuan nodded. "I deeply admire what you are doing, Senior."

Jian Rufeng said, "Your guesses are mostly correct. But you got one thing wrong: I'm not here to recruit you, but to invite you to 'Godslayer' as the chief instructor!"

Now it was Ye Yuan's turn to be surprised. He had thought Jian Rufeng intended to groom him.

Instead, Jian Rufeng was asking him to go back and train others!

This outcome was completely unexpected.

"Senior, have you mistaken something? Look at me—I'm only at the seventh heaven of Heavenly Sovereign!" Ye Yuan said skeptically.

Though a thousand years had passed, his cultivation had only reached the late Heaven-Earth realm, equivalent to the seventh heaven of Heavenly Sovereign.

Such a level should be nothing in 'Godslayer'.

If he were to teach others, would those Celestial realm experts accept it?

But Jian Rufeng was firm. "You need not doubt anything. I'm not senile yet. 'Godslayer' has many experts, but in terms of law comprehension, they are far inferior to you! The only thing you lack is cultivation level. And that can be made up for."

In the eyes of true geniuses, cultivation level was never a gap.

The real gap was laws!

"All races are suppressed by the divine race, severely limiting their comprehension of laws! Though the human race appears populous, true experts are few. Eighty percent of those Celestial realm experts succeeded in their tribulations by luck. In terms of combat power, some Celestial realms are even inferior to eight-mark peak divine race warriors! So it's not that the races don't want to resist—they simply lack the strength!" Jian Rufeng said gravely.

Ye Yuan listened, a thoughtful expression on his face.

No wonder, after returning to this era, he found that the warriors here were not as powerful as he had imagined.

Based on what he had seen and heard in another time, the ancient era should have been the human race's most glorious period.

That era had countless experts!

Each one was a world-shaking powerhouse.

Especially the Eighteen Grand Ancestors—they were terrifying beings capable of contending with the divine race's progenitors.

Yet even a peerless genius like Qin Chao had pitifully weak techniques and martial skills.

This was clearly unreasonable.

Even Hao Yu Heavenly Sovereign, when passing on the Bone Sword, showed contempt for later human geniuses.

As for the Space-Time Grand Ancestor Shang Heng, there was no need to mention him.

But after returning to this era, Ye Yuan found it completely different.

That is to say, the human race had not yet reached its peak!

Wait!

Suddenly, a possibility struck Ye Yuan. His expression changed drastically, and a storm raged in his heart!

"The previous Mystic Mechanism Heavenly Sovereign is still alive, the Eighteen Grand Ancestors have not yet appeared, and the human race has not entered its most glorious era!"

"The human race is weak, yet this era abounds with geniuses! What they lack is not talent, but inheritance!"

"Spiritual energy is abundant, geniuses are plentiful—all prerequisites for the human race's rise are in place! Everything is ready, only the east wind is needed!"

"Now, the previous Mystic Mechanism Heavenly Sovereign invites me back as chief instructor. Could it be that the grand event Shang Heng spoke of is closely related to me?"

"Could it be... that the later glorious era of the human race was actually created by me?"

"This... this is too absurd, isn't it?"

Thoughts raced through Ye Yuan's mind, and a terrifying idea took shape.

Though extremely absurd, the more he analyzed, the more possible it seemed!

Because chronologically, this generation's Mystic Mechanism Heavenly Sovereign would soon sacrifice himself.

If not for him, who else could stand up and pass on the true Dao to the human race?

Jian Rufeng himself had said that those so-called experts were utterly lacking in law comprehension!

Ye Yuan's own law comprehension was not yet at its peak, but the understanding of laws varied from person to person.

What he needed to do was not to teach each person individually, but to teach them how to enter the Dao!

Once he set them on the path, they would develop powerful techniques and martial skills on their own, reaching true pinnacles!

For instance, the move 'Space-Time Chaos'—if Ye Yuan's own space-time laws evolved naturally, they would never produce such a move.

At this thought, Ye Yuan shuddered.

This was too terrifying!

Then what exactly was he?

Was he a person of this era, or of that era?

In an instant, he was utterly confused.

"Space-time! Space-time! What are you? What am I? Where am I now? Who am I?"

Ye Yuan screamed wildly in his heart, trying to understand it all.

But no matter how he screamed, it was to no avail.
