"Stop!"

Zhong Shenxiu looked at the battlefield and suddenly said a sentence.

In the blink of an eye, the battle flag that had been caressed by the gentle breeze suddenly froze, motionless as if it had congealed.

It wasn't just the flag, but also the firing muskets, the cannonballs about to explode...

Everything had come to a standstill.

It was as though someone had pressed the pause button on time.

Only the players and the Martial Artists of the third rank or above from the Jiuzhou Alliance could still move.

"Who are you?"

Ming Wuyi shouted loudly.

"In the presence of a great being, one should know humility!"

Zhong Shenxiu said nonchalantly.

But in the next moment, it was as if his words were truth itself!

Boom!

Cultivators were directly crushed by an invisible force, kneeling on the ground.

Ming Wuyi knelt straight up, spewing out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"Words become laws? Indeed, it's the power of a deity..."

The Heavenly Dao Sect Master, also kneeling, then loudly said, "Everyone... this is the God of the Game, the Lord of Order!"

Others were fine, but within the group of players, there immediately arose a disturbance.

Fortunately, thanks to the prior suppression by Zhong Shenxiu's mention of the Heavenly Constitution, they too lay prostrate, very quiet.

"Lord Shenxiu, Great Being, God of the Game... so it was you!"

Xie Biqi seemed to realize something and suddenly knelt down, "I beg for your mercy, I pray that you give mankind of both worlds a chance to live..."

"Ha ha, ridiculous, do you think I brought the calamities to both sides?"

Zhong Shenxiu laughed indifferently.

At that moment, he felt that his digestion of the key to the heart had finally been completed!

He had fully grasped the unique divinity of the Light of Order in his hands!

"To me, the changes in the two worlds, your disasters, even the variations of the long river of time, are all like a speck of dust..."

The Light of Order flashed in his eyes, and at that moment, both the worlds of Grotto Heaven and Xuanming Sky were completely datafied.

Heavenly Show Points soared at this moment.

After all, it represented a kind of origin of the world!

It's just that, previously, the process of acquiring Heavenly Show Points was more like shearing wool.

Moreover, one couldn't be too aggressive to provoke the world's retaliation.

But now, it was like slaughtering the sheep to feast on its meat.

Even if the world wasn't large, the rewards it brought were immensely generous.

"I once thought that Time's Ouroboros, with its endless world restarts, choosing the future development paths it desired, was a terrifyingly powerful ability."

"But now, I can do the same."

Zhong Shenxiu snapped his fingers.

Xie Biqi, Lin Fan, and the Heavenly Dao Sect Master suddenly felt that something was very wrong around them.

They were as if in a river that could only flow forward, countless rivers of time turned into data streams, twining around them.

Time, at that moment, reversed!

By the time the three of them, or rather, adding Zhang Peng's consciousness, came to their senses, they were already in the Grotto Heaven.

The streets were quiet and serene, although there was a crowd rushing to work, there was no sense of urgency as if life and death were at stake.

Ordinary people lived a leisurely and comfortable life, which made Xie Biqi feel somewhat bewildered.

On the television, a female anchor dressed in a blue suit announced with a sweet and formulaic tone, "On March 14th, the Imperial Prime Minister concluded his half-month state visit and has officially returned to the country..."

"The election for the Imperial Senate will conclude on the 19th, with the monarchist party securing 77 seats, effectively locking down the victory..."

"Up next is international news..."

...

"Senate election, is this... before the game's internal testing?"

Xie Biqi grabbed a passerby, startling them, "What are you doing?"

After applying a bit of force and earning the label of a crazy woman, Xie Biqi asked for the current date, and her expression was one of complete bewilderment.

"Have we... returned to the past?"

Her effort, everything she had done, what did it all count for in the face of a power that could turn back time?

"You few, are arguably representatives of these two worlds."

Zhong Shenxiu lightly tapped on Zhang Peng, and countless feathers flew out, forming into a figure— it was the Heavenly Dao Sect Master!

"Now, it's time to choose, to resurrect all those who have died, or to turn back time to the present... or, perhaps... to keep the original development timeline unchanged?"

Zhong Shenxiu asked teasingly.

At the same time, he had already started to deal with the traces on this temporal thread, erasing the flaws of his ceremony of absorbing the unique divine essence.

Even if someone else retraced this time period, they would not be able to find his weakness.

"Oh great god of games... why in my world, am I alone?"

The Heavenly Dao Sect Master looked at the two players and one native Outer Heaven Demon, and he was not feeling well.

If it was a voting system, where the majority rules over the minority, wouldn't Xuanming Sky be at others' mercy?

"Isn't the answer obvious? Of course, it's to turn back time to the present... wait, does this mean that we're all reborn?"

Xie Biqi suddenly felt a headache, "In this timeline, is there another me? What will happen to her?"

"If the story is altered, then the game might not even appear, without that world's vital energy... transcendence cannot be realized in Da Xia..."

Lin Fan hesitated, but not too much.

Ever since he mastered the 'Wind and Dew Technique', he had been able to use the infinite fusion power within him to replace the vital energy of heaven and earth, allowing his martial skills to advance by leaps and bounds.

"Reviving the dead... that's a huge problem, isn't it?" Zhang Peng was also hesitant, "The TV shows and novels I've seen... to resurrect the dead, often a terrible price must be paid, and the wishes frequently go unfulfilled..."

"Time's up, haven't you decided yet?"

Zhong Shenxiu smiled teasingly, "Then... I'll make the choice for you, effective today, the game shuts down!"

Although Xie Biqi felt regretful, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The final judgment of this supreme being seemed to have a touch of humanity?

"Thank you, my lord!"

The Heavenly Dao Sect Master was extremely thrilled.

Wouldn't this mean that the Outer Heaven Demons could no longer enter his world?

"The Grotto Heaven where the players are located previously lacked spiritual energy, hence the compensations afforded to players, but now... with both sides' combat power balanced, it's time to settle this."

Zhong Shenxiu continued, "Starting today, the passage to alternate dimensions will disappear because... these two worlds will merge together forever. In the Grotto Heaven, the resurge of Spiritual Energy has arrived! From now on, everyone can cultivate... and the Cultivators of Xuanming Sky have been granted the opportunity to seek vengeance freely, hmm, this is also a form of fairness."

"What does it mean for the worlds to merge?"

Zhang Peng's face showed a hint of confusion, which quickly turned to shock, "Then, the passage to alternate dimensions becomes an invasion of the entire world? Good heavens..."

Though human technology was powerful, facing millions or even tens of millions of Martial Artist Daoists, they would be utterly helpless!

"Order is only for a moment, chaos is eternal."

A mysterious smile played at the corners of Zhong Shenxiu's mouth.

Under his gaze, the two great worlds suddenly turned into a series of data streams, and began to merge into one another in a strange interweaving…
