My Bottle Cosmos

Chapter 887 - 829: Li Qing’s Conscience and the Direction of War

Li Qing looked at Atabia, whose face was full of regret, and recalled Elis, who was still gloating even after being tricked by him. A slight sense of guilt arose in his heart.

But he quickly adjusted his depressed mood.

He should not feel guilty.

After all, he knew that although he liked to trick and frame others, with unscrupulous methods, he still saw himself as the greatest benefactor in the cosmos, the greatest sage propelling the era.

This was verified from another Life Ancient God Star Lord!

People often said, sell out your conscience in exchange for benefits.

And Li Qing exchanged his conscience for one mythical era of the cosmos after another. If he didn’t have the largest conscience in the cosmos, how could his conscience be worth so much?

This precisely proved that he was not the greatest manipulator of all beings in cosmic history, but the greatest pure-hearted person in cosmic history.

Hoo!

Exhaling a long breath, Nokron looked sincerely at Atabia, "Atabia, I forgive you."

"Thank you."

Atabia felt a warmth in his heart, and his Tao Heart became much more at ease.

After all, his original goal was to traverse through all possible times, finding a timeline where as long as it wasn’t zero, everyone could work together and move towards a perfect ending.

He had sensed early on that destiny would create gaps between them over time, and he wanted to say no to destiny.

Yet now...

His own mistake had personally led to the division of the Saint Alliance.

What he feared most was that the Emperor or Nokron would no longer trust him, but he didn’t expect that Elder Nokron would still choose to trust him again.

"I actually guessed the worst of this elder sage from the remote past."

"He was chosen by Elder Dream Garment, the destined person to save the cosmos and overthrow the Dark and Light Ancient God in the last kalpa."

"Not every clever, monstrous person will use schemes to harm others madly."

Atabia felt that he was judging a gentleman’s heart with a petty person’s intent.

Perhaps seeing someone with talent and wisdom similar to his own, he instinctively became wary of the other, and developed an inexplicable instinctual hostility.

He introspected quietly.

Soon, they sat at a tea stall in the dense fog of the Corridor of All Heavens, and they ordered a few servings of tea snacks.

"Next, what do you plan to do?" Nokron asked.

"She cannot enter our universe; there are ultimate constraints, or else she could overrun all our nine universes in an instant," Atabia said solemnly.

Li Qing nodded.

Nokron being knocked down with one punch by her wasn’t because he held back.

She was truly that strong.

Each great realm achieved was as far apart as heaven and earth.

However, to be fair, the real oneself was stronger, while Elis was just half of his strength.

He possessed rough versions of the Space-Time and Spiritual Essence diagrams.

Belonging to the dual-seat Yuan Primordial Saint!

Time was truly a marvelous thing, allowing possibilities, time and again, to directly draw future technology to the present.

Otherwise, normal development would take who knows how many ages to reach this point.

"Next, I have to go to the rear universe to get more matter, traverse more, and create more parallel universes to expand our military strength," Atabia said.

"After all, now things have come to this, I no longer need to restrict the flow of cosmic matter constantly, and can deduce a multitude of multi-dimensional universes."

Nokron pushed the teacup, "You are being reckless!"

"But there’s no way not to be reckless."

Atabia showed a bitter expression and opened up, "Among the Four Great Saints, only I know the exact coordinates of the real [present-world] universe.... only I hold 80% of the matter universe’s key."

"Now even Elis can’t get that coordinate, can’t find the real universe behind our four defenses."

"But in the future?"

"Everyone wants to get the exact coordinates from me, so I am the target of all, and people want to capture and torture me."

"If a few real Saints of Time with equal realm to mine, and possessing 140 qualifications, they might truly reach the coordinate I hold."

By then, he will have no advantage.

Better than guarding the entire rear universe is to go directly to liquidate it before bandits rob their warehouse together!

Money spent is truly money!

Create a large number of parallel universes to gain more technology.

From the development trend of this universe now, a multi-dimensional universe is bound to emerge entirely!

Atabia said:

"From now on, I plan for us three to each create 28 parallel universes, each with 0.3% material, adding to the original two, giving each of us thirty."

"Each Saint’s territory with thirty parallel universes can withstand Elis."

Luckily, he managed the universe’s cash flow to create more universes, otherwise, they wouldn’t even be possible to confront Elis.

Li Qing nodded, "Using quantity to fight quality?"

Atabia had started pondering how to fight a multi-dimensional universe war.

Each of them having thirty universes to fight Elis’s three universes.

"But having more doesn’t mean winning." Nokron frowned, "It might be leading sheep to the tiger’s mouth, this matter can’t beat their Outer Domain Celestial Demons, their forces are more advanced, their civilization higher."

Not fighting head-on.

Spying is about quality, infiltration, single-person operations.

Following a route akin to special forces.

"I know more isn’t necessarily better."

Atabia gave a bitter smile, "But we have no other choice; waiting for death by guarding the rear warehouse isn’t an option, only by creating new parallel universes can we acquire technology."

"The multi-dimensional universe is the destiny among destinies." He had seen the future clearly.

Li Qing considered thoughtfully.

This is directly expanding 80% of the matter universe at his rear madly.

Becoming a lavish tycoon, first trying out thirty each!

However, this time and time again, crossing the Long River of Time, creating so many universe bubbles...

It seems there’s no use for the present him!

Because Li Qing’s two diagrams had reached a bottleneck, merely patched together, without completing the final step.

This cannot be built up with time travel.

It depends on opportunities, on life and death struggles.

That’s why he gave Elis this diagram, hoping she, like the former Star Lord, could perfect this rough Spiritual Wisdom Diagram in a life-and-death struggle.

Li Qing felt slightly at peace:

"Right now, crossing is just wasting money crazily..."

"I can’t let him traverse, wait for the Spiritual Wisdom Diagram and Space-Time Diagram to fight a war, perfect his own diagram thoroughly, break through the bottleneck; only then let him traverse."

When the two diagrams are utterly perfect, they undergo the final fusion!

By then, a massive amount of time travel is needed, but this present money isn’t certain to achieve that final breakthrough, so how could he let him squander it now?

"No." Nokron immediately interrupted his thoughts, "Creating more parallel universes is too risky, what if more heaven-defying enemies emerge?"
