THE GOD EATER

Chapter 1394: Weakness Of Time Anchor.

Plus, Time Traveler’s son must have taken 5 units of divinity to be born, weakening him further. Then his Supreme Metac might have fallen in conversion efficiency from years of neglect.

But even with this maximum possible power output, he was still 2.70 times stronger than Time Traveler and would be able to drag the troublemaker to the present to deal with his problems instead of escaping into the past.

But to avoid accidents, such as Heavenly Eye’s four hidden large worlds being exposed and Time Traveler establishing Domains on all of them, for a total of 40.5 billion square kilometers of Domain Power, nullifying his advantage in Domain Power.

If such a thing were to happen, Time Traveler’s power output would immediately jump to Rank(10) × Divinity(108) × Volume(9^3 × 2 × 20%) × 40.5 billion square kilometers, which would be 12,754,584 units of celestial power.

So Time Traveler would become too strong for the Time Anchor to shackle. This was why he needed to advance as soon as possible.

This was only the threat from Time Traveler. If a Time Lord much stronger than Time Traveler suddenly appeared, or if a strong Dao Lord took the Time Loop Supreme Metac from him, the situation would get worse.

’One step at a time,’ he thought, as he tried to stop thinking about the worst-case scenarios.

’The next step right now is a fifth Divine Metac of the Time Pathway. I mean, I already have four and need five for a Supreme Metac.’

’So it would be a shame not to add a fifth one at this time. For future purposes and emergencies, of course.’

He didn’t intend to make the Time Anchor Supreme Metac just yet. He was only preparing the materials for when he felt the time was right.

If he were alone, he wouldn’t need five Divine Metacs of the Time Pathway to make the Time Anchor Supreme Metac. Any Divine Metac would do.

But he wanted to put on a convincing performance, so he had to pretend at least to be normal. On its own, and compared to what he has achieved so far, creating a Supreme Metac of the Time Pathway with Divine Metacs of the Devouring Pathway was normal.

After all, Rank 8 cultivators can manage it too. And Dao Lords create Supreme Metacs of other pathways with Divine Metacs of their pathway all the time.

The problem here, and what made what he intended to do special, was that the Devouring Pathway and the Time Pathway were not related. Usually, Rank 8 cultivators, and even Dao Lords, created Supreme Metacs closely related to their original pathway.

He didn’t need the Time Pathway and Devouring Pathway to be related since he used fundamental particles to create units of commonality.

He didn’t know if other Dao Lords could use fundamental particles. Still, he knew that doing something like that so soon would compound the extraordinary things he had done so far and draw an exponential amount of attention.

Since he couldn’t use the Time Anchor Supreme Metac anyway and still hadn’t determined whether he could copy Supreme Metacs into the spark of power without fusing them, he decided not to risk the extra attention.

He thought about all of this as a million threads of thought worked nonstop to produce the Divine Metac he wanted. Fortunately, he didn’t have to whip them to motivate them, or it would take a lot of effort to keep them working at maximum efficiency.

The intensive labor continued for 37 minutes until they finally produced something useful. He sighed in relief when he saw the product of his work.

Time Blade(Rank 6).

This was the fifth Divine Metac of a pathway he didn’t own that he managed to make in less than 4 hours. It would turn a few heads if the world found out.

He didn’t care much about the world’s opinion, though. The opinion he lived to watch for was the eye’s. So after the Time Blade Divine Metac was accepted into the Devouring Supreme Metac, he focused on the eye again.

The eye in question behaved like it didn’t see anything special. It continued to float around aimlessly. This time, Loki watched it bob up and down, doing nothing, for 23 seconds before he quit.

Then he turned to look at the Time Blade Divine Metac and thought, ’Good to see you again, my old friend.’

He made the Time Blade Divine Metac because he thought he should make an offensive one next. With this, he could grind down a target with the power of time, aging them rapidly and burning through their lifespan.

He nodded in satisfaction and thought, ’If I combine this with the Time Anchor Divine, I might be able to kill Time Traveler from afar.’

’With two Divine Metacs working together, the volume of the power output would increase, producing more celestial power. So it is very good.’

All in all, he was satisfied with the Divine Metacs he made. Even with the Time Anchor Divine Metac’s weakness, that it could only work when he was directly affected by the reversal of time, he was still happy with it.

If Time Traveler reversed time and did nothing in the new timeline that would affect him, the Time Anchor wouldn’t work. But if Time Traveler went back to the past and did things that would affect him, the Time Anchor would stop it.

It was like how he could only stop the Time Loop Supreme Metac if it was trying to reset a direct part of his existence. For example, the first time Traveler used the Time Loop Supreme Metac on him.

Time Traveler was always using the Time Loop Supreme Metac under the River of Death to maintain his Cave Heaven. Nothing stood in his way then. But then Loki came along and threw a rock into the finely tuned machine that maintained the Cave Heaven, destroying it.

(A/N: I like to show my workings so you don’t think I came up with the numbers, or that I’m just padding for word count like some of you think. I also want you to understand the power system in depth so you can appreciate all the work I put into creating it and keeping track of everyone’s power across many timeline resets.)
