Although the methods and stages in practice were different, Yale was confident to say that his old master was equivalent to a peak Law God when he died as Liye.
However, if a peak Law God descended to that universe, the battle would have been one-sided due to the difference in universes.
As far as Yale know the highest level registered in that universe was just equivalent to an Essence God, and due to the difference in the power granted to those who descended, even a Law Master of Yale's universe would be able to battle equally with someone comparable to an Essence God in that universe.
As for Yale who was a powerful Essence God, even his incarnation who was an ordinary Essence God was comparable to someone of a level equivalent to an Origin God in a lower universe.
However, since that level didn't exist, Yale's incarnation stood at the peak of that universe as long as no one else from a higher universe descended.
If anyone descended to those universes, there would be chaos on them. Yale finally understood the reasons for being so careful with people descending when he noticed about it.
After thinking a bit, Yale felt that most people would be unable to send an incarnation to those lower universes, and that probably he has succeeded because there weren't such restrictions for Timeless Sovereigns.
The reason for that was simple, those universes were created by a Timeless Sovereign or are under the protection of one of them, so there wasn't a restriction for those with the same title.
As far as Yale knew, only the creator of his universe, the Mysterious Expert and himself were Timeless Sovereigns.
Since Yale didn't put any universe under his protection and couldn't create any universe, the one who did it was one of the other two, but Yale felt that most likely was the one who created his universe.
After all, he was the first Timeless Sovereign, and it wouldn't be that strange that he didn't take measures against himself.
Yale guess was correct because those universes were created or fell under the protection of the first Timeless Sovereign. Even the Life and Death Trials had his approval to use those universes as targets, or else, there would be no way for someone who didn't even understand the Time Law to control the flow of time between two universes.
Even an Origin God could create a lower universe like the one which had the Purgatory World, but usually, only their creators could alter the flow of time there, and the Life and Death Trials never happened in any of those universes, or everyone would have discovered about the true nature of the Life and Death Trials long ago.
The only part Yale was mistaken was thinking that the universe creator forgot to protect the universes against other Timeless Sovereigns.
The truth was that the lack of protection was on purpose because he didn't mind if another Timeless Sovereign interfered with them as if he was sure that he wouldn't be the only Timeless Sovereign.
Giving the nature of the Timeless Border, Yale wouldn't have doubted that the universe creator knew beforehand who would become Timeless Sovereigns after him.
After thinking so much about the truth of the lower universes, Yale's incarnation walked towards the young master who was still frozen in the time.
"You like bullying the weak and even dared to disrespect me. However, your acts let me notice something important, so I will forgive your life. Sadly, it is probable that for you, the punishment will be worse than death."
Although the time was stopped, Yale could still manipulate the time of the young master and made his time in the future disappear until the point where he just had a year of life remaining.
That young master would age immediately after the time recovered its flow, but that wasn't Yale's only punishment for him.
Yale also destroyed all the chances of training of the young master turning him into a mere mortal for his whole life. Thus, his chances of training to increase his lifespan disappeared.
His only chance to live more time would be doing like Liye and consuming resources to expand his lifespan, but it was difficult that someone would spend those resources into a useless person like that young master.
That was the punishment for mocking about the efforts of the disciples and the old master that Yale had when lived as Liye in that world.
The meaning was simple.
"If you feel that you are already better than me at that time, show me how do you surpass me in the same conditions."
Although that was the meaning of the punishment, Yale knew that the young master wouldn't succeed.
People only respected him for his family, and he was important in his family because he had potential.
After having lost his potential, it was easy to guess that his family would ignore him until his death.
"It is better if I leave and reactivate the time. Everyone will think that it is a divine punishment for insulting Ancient Master Liye, so I doubt that they think that there is someone hiding here. Well, this had truly been a divine punishment for offending me, who I am the same person as Ancient Master Liye, so that way of saying it is still correct."
No one could control the time in that universe, so Yale felt confident that everyone would attribute it to punishment from the heavens.
The flow of time resumed, and the young master turned into an old man in less than a second.
He tried to speak, but he ended coughing with pain on his old throat.
"What happened? Why has he aged so much?"
Some people were shocked by what happened.
"This must be a divine punishment for offending Ancient Master Liye. I always knew that he was truly a descended god!"
While others who believed the story of Ancient Master Liye being a descended god deepened their veneration.
"Master is really awesome. He managed to leave such a fearful method in this world."
Yale's disciple believed that his master managed to seal part of his power on the statue when he lived in that world, but he couldn't even try to imagine how he did it.
