"Old man, when will the catastrophe caused by the final darkness you mentioned finally break out?"

After pondering for a long time, Gu Chen couldn't help but ask the King of Ultra.

"Well, it could be as short as 10,000 or 20,000 years, or as long as tens of thousands of years. There is no exact number."

Upon hearing this, King Ultra only gave a vague time range.

"Yeah, it seems like we still have a lot of time."

Hearing the answer from King of Ultra, Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"A lot? My friend, do you think tens of thousands of years is a lot from the perspective of the universe?"

However, the King of Ultra did not seem to agree with Gu Chen's statement, so he asked back.

Gu Chen couldn't help but fall silent. If one changes the perspective to that of the universe, tens of thousands of years is indeed not a long time; it can even be said to be just a blink of an eye.

But for a man like him who had only lived for 30 years in total, tens of thousands of years was already an unattainable amount of time.

But on second thought, tens of thousands of years should be enough for him to break through to the level of Ultra King, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Chen asked curiously: "Old man, can I ask how long it took you to break through to your current realm?"

"I don't remember the details, but it's probably over a hundred thousand years."

The King of Ultra did not hide this and spoke directly.

"Hundreds of thousands of years?! How could it take that long?"

Gu Chen's eyes suddenly widened, somewhat unable to believe that it would take so long to break through the mysterious level.

"Long? Perhaps, but this is normal, because beings at our level can be said to have mastered certain rules of the universe. We possess unparalleled power and stand at the pinnacle of the multiverse. Even the catastrophe caused by the final darkness cannot destroy us."

King Ultra didn't think much of Gu Chen's surprise. He even felt that he was very lucky to have been able to break through to his current level in more than 100,000 years.

After all, the path he chose was relatively easy to follow. After all, he sacrificed his most powerful combat power and specialized in assisting the guarding rules, so it would take relatively less time.

For example, Noah's time and space rules, Legend's cosmic will rules and Seiga's miracle rules are relatively stronger than King of Ultra in terms of combat power. Therefore, the time they need to reach this step is longer than the time King of Ultra needs to reach this step.

So the question is, even with the help of the mysterious four Ao, can Gu Chen grow from an existence not even at the ultimate Ao level to a strong man on par with the mysterious four Ao in tens of thousands of years?

Thinking of this, Gu Chen suddenly became a little unconfident again, and the pressure in his heart suddenly rose again.

"My friend, don't think too much. Just focus on taking every step you take now."

As if he could see the pressure and lack of confidence in Gu Chen's heart, the King of Ultra continued to speak.

"That's true, old man. There's no point in thinking so much now."

Hearing this, Gu Chen took a deep breath, grabbed the cup full of juice on the table in front of him and drank it all in one gulp.

"Okay, my friend, now that you know some of the secrets from those years, do you have any questions you want to ask?"

Seeing that Gu Chen quickly adjusted his mentality, King of Ultra nodded slightly and then continued to ask.

"Hmm... there is one thing I don't quite understand. Why did the so-called final darkness distort history and fabricate the origin of the dark Tiga that I made up? What kind of impact will His actions have on me? How will I step into the trap He set?"

Hearing this, Gu Chen frowned immediately and asked.

Only by knowing both yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. The Final Darkness seems to symbolize the existence of the underlying operating rules of the multiverse. Gu Chen can only understand it by learning more about its methods, so as to avoid stepping into the trap set by the Final Darkness at any time in the future.

"Regarding this, I don't know whether you are lucky or have already noticed something. Let me put it this way. The two disturbances in the universe before were caused by the Final Darkness. Its purpose is to make you absorb the darkness that is bred in the bodies of the creatures in the universe and contaminated by the Final Darkness."

"If you do that, then the final darkness's pollution will begin to affect you, brainwashing your spirit and will, and then your clone at that time will break away from the control of your original body and become a real, independent existence with a soul, and faithfully carry out the mission given by the final darkness."

"At that time, the distorted history will become an established fact. Even I will not be able to erase it under the gaze of the final darkness. And Dark Tiga will truly become the disaster of the multiverse, the messenger of the final darkness, and the knight of the apocalypse who announces the coming of the final catastrophe."

The King of Ultra spoke slowly, and his words made Gu Chen break out in a cold sweat.

My goodness, Gu Chen could guess that the turmoil in the universe was caused by the Final Darkness, but he never expected that this was actually a trap set for him by the Final Darkness.

If clone No. 1 had not felt extreme disgust and nausea from the polluted darkness, he might have absorbed it into his body for transformation, thereby enhancing his own strength.

Moreover, if so much dark power were all absorbed into the body of Clone No. 1, it is estimated that he would break through to the ultimate level in a short period of time. However, the price is that he would unknowingly become a puppet of the ultimate darkness and at the same time cut off the connection with his original body.

Thinking about it this way, it was a bit thrilling at the time.

"Old man, I was probably lucky at that time because I felt extremely disgusted and repulsive towards the polluted darkness, so I did not rashly absorb it, but chose to destroy it directly."

Rubbing his forehead, Gu Chen couldn't help but feel fortunate for himself.

"Really? Then it seems that the seed of the dark power after the interference of the higher dimension has endowed you with true darkness, which caused the final calculation of darkness to go wrong."

The King of Ultra nodded and said.

"Old man, isn't ultimate darkness one of the underlying logics of the multiverse? Even so, it can't be considered true darkness?"

Hearing this, Gu Chen continued to ask curiously.

"Without the interference of me and Noah, darkness would not have been born in the end, and He would still be the true darkness."

The King of Ultra did not give further explanation on this, but just sighed and shook his head slightly.

At that time, they were young and ignorant, and were full of passion and motivation to realize their perfect ideals. With perfect execution, their ideals were realized, but it also gave birth to the ultimate darkness, so that after realizing their mistakes, the King of Ultra and others had no chance to correct them, and could only desperately save lives threatened by the catastrophe caused by the ultimate darkness in one universe after another.
