"Huh?" Zhou Tian burst into an angry laugh. "What do you understand? You, such a prodigiously gifted Human Champion, what could you possibly understand? Of course you're powerful, invincible among your peers. But can you reverse the situation of this world? First, try surviving the hands of the causal monster 'Shang'!

"Only we can make countless powerhouses and Heavenly Prides rise!"
"Only we are the most correct path and future!"
"You know about the Immortal Palace Battlefield, don't you? And you've seen those two futures, haven't you? If the third Time Tree opens, you'll get to see a third future of despair!"
"Those are all futures where our plan was interrupted, or even where we never intervened at all!"
"Only death, only despair!"
"What rescuers arriving ten thousand years later? That's all a conspiracy of Hope and the God of Desperate!"
