589 What Happens Next?

Arbiter's Rights — which are created from the profound understanding of the Laws — are responsible for the existence of Gods. Knowledge becomes power, and the one with that knowledge attains godhood. In this sense, if someone were to acquire even more knowledge than a god, that god would instantly lose their divinity and become something of a quasi-god. 

However, it would still take millions of years for one to usurp the Arbiter's Right of a god, even if the challenger had Baiyi's intellect and mental caliber. Baiyi should not have managed to steal the Time God's Arbiter's Rights because he did not have the time. Fortunately, the Laws Baiyi tried to grasp were the Laws of Time, and it had a pretty large loophole for him to exploit.
