Starting with Growing Mushrooms-Chapter 453 - 355: Time Storage Jar, Creator_2

With a renewed savings, he returned to his own timeline.
Rejuvenated, Magaras began to retreat into seclusion to resume his cultivation.
Ten thousand years.
Hundred thousand years.
Unknown how much time had passed.
Magaras finally felt strong enough to leave this land in search of his old enemies.
"All these years, I’ve been refining defensive techniques, my defensive power is adequate!"
"I don’t need to consider offense!"
"As long as they can’t kill me, each of their attacks reduces their lifespan by one, while my attack power is maxed out."
Magaras understood his combat strategy well: become a punching bag, let them hit him while storing savings.
But when he found the civilization that destroyed his hometown, he discovered they had already perished.
"Forty thousand years ago, they were already on the path to Sixth Tier destruction?"
"I didn’t get a chance to kill them, and yet they died."
"No, I’ve already killed them, with my power, with the Time Storage, killed them with time!"
Bored, Magaras suddenly lost his aim and could only transform into a Longevity Seeker, traveling all around.
Time became meaningless.
Just find someone to attack him, and he could store time.
Ten thousand years, twenty thousand years...
He witnessed various cosmic civilization’s rise and fall.
"What’s over there?"
"Attack him and find out!"
One day, a fleet discovered him and launched an attack.
But the humans of Cloud Star Civilization were terrified to discover that attacking him made them age rapidly, each attack accelerated their own time, and civilizations advanced swiftly.
"Don’t attack me, you will die!"
Kindhearted Magaras treated people kindly, not wanting them to become addicted.
Yet the opposing side still became addicted during the process of attacking him.
This was a poison named time.
Attacking him induces a state of intoxicating addiction; every strike feels like an enigmatic and profound enlightenment moment.
"Let’s capture him!"
"Haha, this is the Sage’s Stone bestowed upon our civilization!"
As a punching bag, Magaras wasn’t skilled at offense, and was soon captured and imprisoned.
The entire Cloud Star Civilization attacked him, advancing rapidly.
"Don’t hit too hard, you’d kill him."
"Yes, we must attack carefully!" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
Tied to a stone pillar, endless pain and torment made Magaras forget the passage of time again.
He became a prisoner suffering endless torture every day, beaten frenziedly.
Ten years, hundred years, thousand years...
When Magaras came to his senses dizzily, he found himself alone on the stone pillar.
Indeed, the entire civilization had entirely died of old age.
In the "Sage’s Stone," they advanced swiftly and died swiftly.
"Pitiful, yet tragic."
"Another civilization killed by time."
Magaras still couldn’t break free from the shackles, nor did anyone release him.
He was bound to the peculiar stone pillar for ten thousand years, waiting for the sturdy chain to rot away.
Crack!
He shattered the chains, barely escaping.
He then spent ten years erecting a tombstone for the rapidly dying Cloud Star Civilization.
"Ah time, no civilization can escape the weapon named time."
Meanwhile, he discovered that the entire Cloud Star Civilization’s attack had brought his life storage to an astronomical figure:
[197640 billion]
"Devoured the life of an entire civilization, such exaggeration."
"I’m the calamity in their mouths; I can no longer approach other civilizations, for any life that attacks me would fall in love with the beauty of living and dying in a day."
"I’m the most beautiful hallucinogenic time poison in the Cosmos!"
"What should I do next?"
He stared at the vast starry sky, uncertain of his life’s purpose.
He could only continue to travel everywhere.
But several civilizations found him to be a poppy flower, captured him, and beat him, ultimately dying in addiction.
After several instances of destroying civilizations with time, Magaras grew a bit restless.
"Should I unravel the mysterious power of time on me?"
Soon, Magaras returned to seclusion again.
Tens of thousands of years passed, millions of years passed, countless days and nights circulated, countless supernova explosions echoed from afar.
Until one day, a civilization followed the ancient ruins of the Hilo Civilization, the Cloud Star Civilization, to find this place.
"Legend has it, there is ancient god’s Sage’s Stone here!"
"It’s a treasure pursued by countless civilizations; it’s the myth of the starry sky, the product of ultimate civilization, the path to Seventh Tier."
"It’s the Sage’s Stone, Magaras!"
When people uncovered the ruins of a rocky planet, they found he was just an ordinary man, inwardly kind.
"Why is he so ordinary?"
"Should we attack him and see?"
Amidst their conversation,
Magaras suddenly turned around, gazing at the sun above.
Countless years in the prolonged darkness of closed seclusion made the sunlight appear glaring, he muttered,
"The sun is attacking me."
Everyone followed Magaras’ gaze and felt an uncontrollable huge terror.
Because the sunlight shone on Magaras’ body, the sun attacking him meant lifespan -1-1-1.
People saw that scorching star overhead, the sun aging rapidly, from 4.6 billion years to 4.7 billion years.
