Time seemed to stand still for both of them until Bai Lixin’s stomach let out a growl and Dijia let go of him.

The youth’s eyes were slightly red, and his expression was aggrieved.

Dijia smiled, “Hungry? I bet you haven’t eaten for a few days.”

The youth thought seriously, “Yes, for three days, I think.”

“There’s still some food there, come with me,” Dijia said, leading Bai Lixin forward.

Only then did Bai Lixin have time to look around.

Unlike the diamond mountains behind them, this place had other colors in it.

The soil was normal, and there were lush flowers and trees growing around, much like in a tropical rainforest.

Dijia was familiar with the place, and he quickly led Bai Lixin through the jungle with ease, soon arriving at a cave deep in the forest.

Bai Lixin followed Dijia and asked, “Why are you here?”

Dijia gave a slight pause in his steps and looked back at Bai Lixin before continuing on, “First tell me, who do you think I am?”

Bai Lixin: “Dijia, of course.”

“Hiss, that’s not what I meant,” Dijia thought for a moment, “Um, I’m asking, do you know which Dijia it is?”

Perhaps thinking the question was a bit strange, he added, “Aren’t there many soul fragments? Or which Dijia do you wish it was?”

Bai Lixin: “Why, which one aren’t you?”

“But if you must know, you’re the Dijia on the 999th level, right?”

“When did you wake up?”

Dijia turned back and gave Bai Lixin a satisfied look before continuing, “I woke up a few days ago and came to find you.”

Bai Lixin: “Oh, really?”

As the two of them spoke, they had arrived at the small wooden hut.

The cabin was simply decorated, but it was clear that the owner had taken care of it. Everything was brand new and unused.

Dijia found a few fresh fruits from the cabinet and brought them to Bai Lixin, pressing him to sit again.

When he saw that Bai Lixin was eating the fruit and was not repelled by it, Dijia secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stared at the youth in front of him, the nostalgia in his eyes almost overflowing.

As he was looking intently, Bai Lixin suddenly lifted his head and asked, “Speaking of which, why are you here?”

Dijia: “I woke up and followed you in the Time Cage. I was curious as to what you were planning to use to get out, so I came to take a look.”

“But it looks like you’ve given me another surprise; I didn’t expect you to be here so soon.”

Bai Lixin gave Dijia a deep look and said, “Yes, I also didn’t expect to get help from some birds.”

Dijia pulled out a rattan chair and sat down in front of Bai Lixin. “Really? Then you’re lucky; you must thank those birds.”

“You’re right,” Bai Lixin said, “thank you.”

Dijia froze, his eyes twinkling as he spoke, “What are you talking about? I told you to thank the birds you mentioned, why are you thanking me?”

Bai Lixin pursed his lips, his eyes locked onto Dijia’s eyes.

The gaze was firm and solemn.

Dijia was a little flustered by the stare, and he moved the rattan chair to the side and asked, “Why are you looking at me like that? It’s unnerving.”

Bai Lixin chuckled helplessly, “Do you still remember the copy of the Undead Magician? In that copy, your head was a skeleton.”

Dijia froze for several seconds, as if he were a patient suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. “Oh, that copy, what happened?”

Bai Lixin: “Your head was a skull when we did it. We got to touch each other’s body parts quite intimately, remember?”

Dijia gulped. “Are you saying that you are nostalgic to deliberately anger me, or are you implying something?”

“Heh, don’t pretend you don’t know what I’m talking about,” Bai Lixin yawned, his body sinking lazily into the back of the chair behind him. “When I touched your head, there was a familiar detail about your skill, a small bump in the middle. ”

“I didn’t notice it at first. I just thought that those birds were pecking at the Diamond Mountain like mayflies flying into the sky to reproduce after knowing they would die, after all, it’s their instinct.”

“That was until I inadvertently touched the skulls of those birds that reclaimed the sea.”

“I felt the same detail as your skull.”

The expression on Dijia’s face froze, and his eyes began to flicker rapidly as he opened his mouth to explain. But before the words could come out, he was interrupted by Bai Lixin.

“Of course, that’s not enough to prove the bird is you. It just seemed odd, so I started looking at them one by one.”

“Then it became clear that all the skeletons looked exactly the same, and although the weathering was different due to the time of death, it was still evident that they were not similar, but the same. There are no two identical leaves in the world, not even if they are cloned.”

“Unless it was the same person all along.” Bai Lixin paused and raised an eyebrow. “Oh no, it would be the same bird.”

A great drowsiness hit him, and Bai Lixin tried to open his eyes, but his eyelids were like workers on strike, refusing to go back to work.

Eyelids wobbling, Bai Lixin tried to reach out in front of him, his blurred vision no longer able to focus.

He watched as Dijia rose from his chair and his figure grew larger.

Dijia picked him up, and Bai Lixin looked up at the blurred face zooming in front of him and whispered, “Oh Dijia, you filled up a sea, chiseled a diamond mountain, paved a thorny forest… How long have you been here?”

After finishing these words with difficulty, Bai Lixin’s consciousness could no longer support him, and he sank into the darkness.

His strength was already hollowed out, and he ran without food or drink for three consecutive days and nights.

He hadn’t felt it while running, but now that he had relaxed from that state, he felt an unprecedented level of fatigue.

Before he completely lost consciousness, he heard a vague sigh from the man and his somewhat helpless reply.

“It’s about a hundred billion years.”

———————

The game lobby, the live broadcast area.

The players resting in the lobby were bored, swiping through the live streams to pass the rare days of peace.

As usual, nothing special.

It was the same for Li Cangshan, a new player who had just cleared his first copy after the trial copy, and his floor had been upgraded from the first to the eighth.

He nervously and expectantly opened the email the system just sent him, but it contained the same few words.

[Membership application rejected.]

Sighing lightly, Li Cangshan closed the email and turned his head to click on the live stream, wanting to see how other seniors cleared copies.

He was rejected probably because he wasn’t good enough!

When he learns the great method of being “good enough,” he will definitely make Sister Cancan accept him!

Li Cangshan went to see the only copy of God Xin that he had already memorized, and after saying “Hello, President” in his heart, he opened other live broadcast rooms with boredom.

He couldn’t explain it; they were also clearing copies, and there were some powerful characters, but it was not as good as watching God Xin’s copy.

He was fortunate enough to meet a fan of God Xin in his copy, and he heard a lot about his previous feats of clearing copies, and after listening, he only had one emotion: *I was not yet born when you were born, and you were old when I was born.

*A part of a poem lamenting the helplessness of not being with the person you want to be with.

Why did God make him know about God Xin only to give him one video of his?

Wuuu. Why was he allowed to have it when he was destined to lose it?

No, he didn’t even have it!

He wanted to watch Gid Xin’s livestreams too!

Li Cangshan’s eyes glazed over as he stared at the big screen in the live stream room and shouted, “Li Cangshan is willing to give ten years of his life in exchange for watching God Xin’s live stream once!”

A video window suddenly popped up in the live broadcast room.

On the face of the window was an official statement:

[Copy: Time Cage – Eternal Diamond Mountain. Players: Bai Lixin, Chi Yan, Zhao Nan ……]

Over twenty players were named.

Li Cangshan’s expression instantly froze as he silently clicked on the video window, looking at the characters in the video, and then at the introduction of the characters on the statement, and his widened eyes were about to pierce a hole through his computer screen.

Li Cangshan: “……”

Fuck, am I so spiritual?

It was a joke, ah, is it too late to take back that statement?!

The live broadcast room was quickly flooded with people.

Li Cangshan stared blankly at the number of people in the upper right corner, seeing the number of people soar from a hundred or so at the beginning to tens of thousands in the blink of an eye, and even continue to climb at an unabated speed.

The screen was filled with countless pop-ups, one after another.

[Welcome back, God Xin!]

[Welcome back, God Xin!]

[Welcome back, God Xin!]

One after another, the entire screen was completely covered, and only a little bit of the face could be seen between the gaps in the barrages.

Li Cangshan had never seen such a scene before. He looked at it with his jaw dropped for two seconds, then suddenly came back to his senses and quickly opened the private chat.

Li Cangshan: [Sister Cancan! God Xin! A live broadcast room of God Xin opened up!]

Li Cancan: [I know, we have seen it. Almost three years, he finally… finally appeared. We knew he would come out because he is God Xin Shen. He is powerful; how can he be trapped by eternity.]

Li Chanshan: [Did you all see it?]

Li Cancan: [Me, Zhou Guang, and Liang Xi were together, Xia Chi went to train, but we have informed him, and he is rushing over.]

Li Cancan: [Thank you for informing us.]

Li Changshan: [No, you don’t have to thank me. I know that God Xin means something different to you, it’s no effort.]

Li Cancan: [I never doubted him, we have always believed and waited in silence. We know it’s him, but it’s too good to be true. Xia Chi must be crying.]

Li Chanshan conjured up the image of the arrogant boy with tear streaks on his face and shuddered, [But how did God Xin manage to come back?]

Li Cancan: [I don’t know, but he will definitely give us an answer; just wait and see!]
