When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 1060 - 404: The President’s Weakness (Part 3)

Li Xiu contemplated whether there was a possibility that the destination stated on the ticket was actually the end of the Time Tunnel.

Therefore, Li Xiu had to figure out whether this was the case; he needed to verify if what Guan Jinghao said was true or not.

Even if Guan Jinghao wasn’t lying to him, the information he had was also learned from his mother. Guan Jinghao had never been to the Time Tunnel; whether there’s a Gate of the World there or whether it would cause the President to lose his Undying Body, he probably didn’t know either and couldn’t explain why.

To enter the Time Tunnel, Li Xiu knew of two paths: one through the Jade Gate of Longevity Sky, and another through the Gate of the Green Field.

The Jade Gate was where Li Xiu entered the Time Tunnel, and the Gate of the Green Field was where he exited.

Li Xiu didn’t want the President to know he was going to the Time Tunnel, so he could only choose to enter through the Gate of the Green Field near Tyrone City.

To avoid detection, Li Xiu didn’t visit Kun Sha in Tyrone City and directly went to the Gate of the Green Field.

By the time Li Xiu reached the Gate of the Green Field, it was already late at night, yet the area was still brightly lit and bustling with people. More and more people were joining the ranks of Trial Takers, and at such an unclaimed Trial Gate, a steady stream of people entered and exited day and night. Outside, various stalls traded materials and goods.

He waited until nearly dawn when the last vendor couldn’t hold out any longer and went home, and no one was around anymore. Only then did Li Xiu approach the Gate of the Green Field, opened the door, and entered.

Li Xiu had only traversed the Land of the Green Field once before, but he remembered the route clearly. Staying invisible, he evaded the crowds and headed towards the place where he exited from the Time Tunnel.

Li Xiu was well aware that it was impossible to completely evade Li Boyang’s surveillance, as the Soul Devourer was inside his body.

Fortunately, Li Boyang himself was rejected by the world, and his sensing ability was not strong. As long as Li Xiu stayed far enough away, Li Boyang probably wouldn’t sense much — at most, he’d get a general idea of the location.

Soon enough, Li Xiu arrived at the stone stele, looking around without seeing the miniature train.

"Might as well try it," Li Xiu thought as he took out the ticket that bore the words "End Station." Since this was a miniature train’s stop, with this ticket, he should be able to board; the only question was how long he’d have to wait for the train to arrive.

Li Xiu waited a while with the ticket but didn’t see the train appear. He couldn’t help but silently muse, "After waiting so long, the train should have arrived. Could my judgment be wrong, and the ticket doesn’t summon the train? If that’s the case, then I’ll have to head back to the Jade Gate."

Thinking it over, Li Xiu glanced at the stone stele in the grass and felt a slight movement in his heart, extending the ticket toward the stele.

As the ticket made contact with the stele, the originally unremarkable stone suddenly shone with a peculiar light, revealing several Light Patterns on its surface.

"Time Avenue Station!" Li Xiu recognized those Demon Texts and was instantly overjoyed.

Woo! Woo!

The ticket in Li Xiu’s hand suddenly vanished, and the next second, he heard the familiar whistle. A train like one from a fairy tale appeared out of nowhere nearby, its wheels turning with a clatter, arriving promptly in front of Li Xiu, then coming to a slow stop.

"The ticket indeed can summon the train, but it seems it can only be used once. It looks like I’ll have to visit the station again to see if I can get a few more tickets." Li Xiu walked toward the train.

As Li Xiu approached the train, a bizarre occurrence unfolded. The closer he got, the grander the train became.

By the time he reached the train door, the miniature train had transformed into the size of a real train. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Li Xiu hesitated for a moment. The last time he didn’t use a ticket, he could only be considered a stowaway. This time, with a ticket, he wasn’t sure if he’d be trapped inside.

Even the Unparalleled strength of the Sixteen Ancestral Spirits was trapped inside the train once; he wondered if they used tickets.

After considering for a while, Li Xiu still boarded the train. Inside the carriage, there was no one around, and he casually found a seat to sit down.

"The Happiness Train is about to depart... Please sit tight, fellows... The next stop... Destiny Crossroads Station..." An eerie voice sounded from the train, a tone Li Xiu was quite familiar with. Last time, he had managed to wreck a train, but he wasn’t sure if this was the same one.

The train slowly started moving. The surroundings, which had been empty grasslands, transformed into the Jade Tunnel as the train gained speed.

The tunnel, glowing with soft green light, sped past rapidly as the train proceeded, its headlights casting twin beams of green light that illuminated only a short distance ahead within the tunnel.

The time inside the Time Tunnel seemed peculiarly chaotic. Despite Li Xiu’s keen sense of time, he experienced a disorientation — sometimes it felt like only a few seconds had passed, and sometimes it felt like months.

After an uncertain period, the train’s speed gradually decreased, presumably reaching the Destiny Crossroads Station.

"Destiny Crossroads Station has arrived, disembarking fellows please alight quickly, embarking fellows please board quickly, this station will stop for only three minutes..." The eerie voice echoed again from the direction of the engine.

Li Xiu, though curious about where all these stations led, remained seated without moving, deciding to reach the final destination first.

Originally, Li Xiu thought no one would board, as the Sixteen Ancestral Spirits had already freed themselves, and there shouldn’t be anyone else within the Time Tunnel.

Unexpectedly, he heard footsteps and someone pushed open the train door, climbing up the ladder.

Li Xiu glanced suspiciously over but saw no one — yet strangely enough, he distinctly heard footsteps coming aboard and heading toward his seat.

Li Xiu immediately focused his Light Energy Sensing, but still detected nothing, although the footsteps became increasingly closer.

"Hi there, may I sit here?" A voice sounded in front of Li Xiu, yet he saw nothing.
