"If you want to know the origin of the Sands of Time, you must first start with the origin of the gods."
After thinking for a long time, Amaterasu began to answer Xu Cheng's questions.
"Except for a few coincidences, most of the gods are born from nature and are the result of natural evolution. Sometimes you will definitely wonder why the gods look like humans. In fact, it is the other way around. It is the evolution of humans. Become a god."
Xu Cheng heard this theory for the first time and found it very novel: "Will nature evolve creatures like gods that can destroy the world?"
Amaterasu asked back: "If you give humans time, do you think they can destroy the entire earth? Since species like humans can appear, why can't gods be born?"
Xu Cheng couldn't refute, after all, it was a miraculous work of nature.
Amaterasu continued.
"Every god is born with various powers at the beginning of his birth. This is an innate ability. No god can learn it from the day after tomorrow. Among the various powers, time is regarded as the most special. One, because this is the most special and wonderful power in the world. Even gods who claim to have infinite lifespan, we know that one day we will be lost in the long river of time."
For a long time, there was no God of Time, and no god had mastered the power of time. At that time, the gods thought that time was a forbidden power, so naturally no individual would be born who could master this power. .
But what happened later made the gods realize that they were wrong. The power of time was not uncontrollable.
Xu Cheng, who was in the state of listening to the story, subconsciously asked: "What happened?"
"The invasion of black holes."
Amaterasu held Xu Cheng's hand with one hand, made a pipe with the other hand, put it into her red lips, and started puffing away.
"You should already know that Xu Fu opened a black hole to another world, and a long, long time ago, black holes appeared in our world."
"At that time, no one knew what it was. There were even gods who, driven by curiosity, entered the black hole and disappeared without a trace, never to come back again."
"Because it was the first time they encountered this situation, the gods who had enjoyed peace for a long time were not alert at all. By the time they realized something was wrong, it was already too late. The black hole eroded almost half of the world, countless creatures and the earth, and a large number of gods. They were all swallowed up by the black hole.”

"Just when everyone thought the end was coming, the power of time appeared. It appeared in a hero. At the cost of his own life, this hero made the entire world's time go back to before the black hole invaded, for us. When we get a chance to regret, we realize that the power of time is not uncontrollable, but it travels in the long river of time and will only appear at the most critical time. We call it the sand of time. Just like an hourglass, it will turn back and reverse time at the most critical moment.”
Xu Cheng asked curiously: "Is this the hero you told Yin Lisabai about before?"
"No, that's another thing, but the deeds done by the two heroes are equally great, and they also saved the entire world."
Amaterasu puffed out smoke while staring at Xu Cheng with eyes full of meaning.
Xu Cheng suddenly took a breath of air
If Amaterasu is not lying, then the manager is the Sands of Time, and every time the Sands of Time appear, it is when the world encounters a crisis of annihilation.
Amaterasu raised the corner of her mouth: "Why did I look at you differently and choose a fair deal with you, a person who can strangle someone with just one hand? It's because I saw that you are the owner of the Sands of Time, and I think Yin Lisabai also saw it. Only after knowing this will I choose to become an ally with you.”
She had been complacent about finding a savior before, but she didn't expect to be cut off by that woman Yin Lisabai.
"Then you are wrong."
Xu Cheng corrected her: "When Lisa Bai Yin became an ally with me, I didn't show the power of the sand of obsolescence at all."
Seeing Xu Cheng speaking for Yin Lisabai, Amaterasu couldn't help curling her lips.
"In short, this is the origin of the Sand of Time, and its appearance also means that the world is in crisis, just like a prophecy."
Amaterasu changed a relaxed posture: "The world tree collapsed, the original spirit was resurrected, everything was as predicted."
Xu Cheng remained silent. He didn't expect that he was actually involved in the survival of the world. This was the treatment of a protagonist.
"Hey, dog management, is what Amaterasu said true or false?"
He couldn't help but ask dog management in his mind.
[Please let the host make his or her own judgment]
Tired of being asked, the dog manager only replied this sentence. No matter how Xu Cheng asked, the dog stopped saying anything and kept pretending to be dead.
Xu Cheng turned to look at Amaterasu: "Who else knows about this besides you?"
"Any god who lives long enough will know."
Amaterasu could see what Xu Cheng was worried about, and blew out a breath of second-hand smoke from her red lips: "Don't worry, no one will covet your power. Every holder of the Sands of Time is a hero, but in the end they all use themselves. He saved the world at the cost of his own life, how could other people touch this fate?"
Xu Cheng's face suddenly darkened. He thought he was the protagonist, but he didn't expect that he was indeed the protagonist, but he was just abusing the protagonist.
"You already knew that I wouldn't live long, so you signed a three-thousand-year contract with me, right?"
"of course not!"
Amaterasu said harshly: "With my help, you will definitely be able to live safely for three thousand years."
"I believe you as a ghost."
Xu Cheng was in a bad mood for a moment. He didn't want to sacrifice his life to save the world. After all, he was not such a noble person.
"Do not worry."
Amaterasu comforted: "In the past, the appearance of the Sands of Time was very sudden, and the time of each holder was very short. This is the first time I have seen someone like you who has grown up with you since you were weak. Maybe you can It’s possible to change your destiny against the will of heaven.”
Her comfort had no effect, but Xu Cheng was not the one who scared him, and he would not panic over something that didn't happen.
He quickly calmed down and urged Amaterasu: "Don't be lazy, help me purify my power."
No matter what happens in the future, what he can do now is to master more power as soon as possible, so that even if he encounters an emergency, he will have enough confidence to deal with it.
Although Amaterasu was unhappy with his bossy attitude, she still worked honestly.
The purification lasted for a whole day, and at night, Amaterasu was so tired that her mature appearance suddenly shrank back to a lolita.
"I can not make it."
She lay on the ground without any gesture and begged for mercy: "If you keep doing this, I will be damaged by you, please let me go."
Seeing that she was really in trouble, Xu Cheng spared her and took a look at his personal attributes.
【Xu Cheng】
[Equipment: Killer Card, Ability Card]
[Special: The right hand (seal) that breaks the realm of extinction, the left hand (seal) that cuts off the end, the power of the god of fire, the heart of the artificial god]
[Task Points: 3]
[Random enhancement: 2]
[Evaluation: The protagonist is treated well, but the main text is abused]
"Do you still have a f*cking face?"
Seeing this comment, Xu Cheng was furious. Although the help of dog management to him was indeed irreplaceable, if this kind of help was based on the premise that he would eventually need to sacrifice himself, then he would rather not have it.
It's a pity that the matter has reached this point, and he can no longer tolerate his refusal, and he can't drive the dog management out of his body.
The only thing that can be done is probably to do what Amaterasu said, work hard to change fate and reverse fate.
In the next few days, Xu Cheng asked Amaterasu to help him purify the Vulcan's power every day, like a ruthless capitalist, squeezing free labor.
It wasn't until Devana came to the door that Xu Cheng ended his ruthless exploitation of Amaterasu.
Devana has been living in Japan for a week and has seen the customs and customs here. She is anxious to return to the headquarters, so she bites the bullet and comes to Xu Cheng, hoping that Xu Cheng can go back with her.
Xu Cheng did not refuse. Before searching for Guangming's whereabouts, he needed to solve his genetic disease and integrate the Heart of God.
Otherwise, Guangming, as the leader of the Celestial Clan, is definitely far more powerful than the rest of the Celestial Clan. He must be fully prepared to face this enemy head-on.
And Amaterasu is also preparing to set off around the world to find fragments of the World Tree. Originally, she was not willing to go out and travel. Like Yin Lisabai, she likes to stay in her own secret realm and be a great turtle show.
However, at Xu Cheng's request, she still had to embark on the journey, but she also brought two tool men, Chizuru Odera and Sarina, from being exploited to starting to exploit others.
"Take me with you!
"
Devana looked at the scene in front of her expressionlessly. She and Xu Cheng were about to leave Japan and go to the headquarters of the Super Power Association in North America.
Nagumo Narumi appeared out of nowhere, hugging Xu Cheng tightly like a koala and wanting to follow him.
Even though Xu Cheng had emphasized that this trip was purely a business trip with no adventure or excitement, Nagumo Narumi still refused to let go.
Japan has been completely at peace and has restored order, and as Xu Cheng's little cotton-padded jacket, Nagumo Narumi's status is even higher than that of her sister.
No matter where she goes, she is surrounded by stars, just like the emperor's favorite little princess.
But she doesn't like this kind of life at all. To her, peaceful Japan is a prison that restricts freedom. She yearns for the vast world and adventure outside.
Going out alone was not allowed, so Nayun Narumi could only hold Xu Cheng's thigh tightly and help him go out.
Seeing the eighteen-year-old Nagumo Narumi sitting on the ground hugging his legs and not letting go, Xu Cheng couldn't laugh or cry.
"You are already an adult, why are you still acting like a child?"
Xu Cheng reached out and touched her head: "Get up, I didn't say not to follow you."
Devana could hear the deep endearment in Xu Cheng's tone, and she couldn't figure out what the relationship between the two people was.
"Hmph, Mugu, haven't you heard of the saying that men remain young until they die? The same applies to me."
Nayun Minghai followed Xu Cheng's thigh, climbed onto his back, rode on his waist, raised his hand and pointed forward.
"Let's go! A new adventure is waiting for us in the distance!"
