Bi Teng shook his head, "It doesn't matter to normal cultivators, but for someone like Master Lu, he can reverse time."
At this point, he paused for a moment and said with some apprehension, "For such a person, that kind of parallel universe is a consumable."
Bi Lan didn't understand, but seeing Bi Teng's expression, she didn't ask.
"If it doesn't work, I'll just tell him about that place," Bi Teng muttered to himself, but Bi Lan couldn't hear him clearly.
…
Along with the storm, the dark red sea surged with monstrous waves. In the distance, there were thunderbolts that connected the heavens and the earth and green fog that almost covered the entire sky. From time to time, huge creatures would leap out from the sea and swallow the seawater. Their bodies were covered in thunderbolts as they flew into the distance.
This was Yi Xing's twelfth spacetime.
Twelfth represented that the flow of time here was twelve times faster than in the Genesis Space.
Lu Yin stood on a deserted island that was as large as a continent on Earth. However, it was the smallest island in the ocean, which was much larger than Earth's.
This was just an ocean, and Lu Yin looked into the distance where the ocean connected to form a unique parallel spacetime.
This was a parallel spacetime formed by the ocean, and the ocean was either silent on a planet or floating in space. They were constantly connected, and there was no end in sight.
Lu Yin took a step forward and passed through the lightning, waving his hand to disperse the green fog in the sky to reveal a deep but slightly green starry sky. This space was poisonous, or at least not suitable for humans to live in.
This was also a parallel spacetime with no humans, but this one was larger than the fifth one.
Lu Yin's eyes trembled when he saw the lines in space. Sure enough, they were larger than the fifth one, and the flow of time here was twelve times faster than in the Genesis Space. If Flowing Light could adapt, then he would be able to see what had happened twelve seconds ago.
If he entered a parallel spacetime that was fifty times faster than the Genesis Space, then he would be able to bypass the twelfth one. Lu Yin had thought of this before, but he rejected the idea. The faster the flow of time in a parallel spacetime, the harder it would be to adapt. Flowing Light would be stuck in a quagmire if it was five times faster, and it might be rejected as soon as it appeared if it was fifty times faster.
It would also be difficult to gain recognition in such a parallel spacetime.
Of course, this was all just Lu Yin's conjecture. Whether or not one could be accepted by a parallel spacetime had nothing to do with the flow of time. Perhaps there were times when the flow of time was tens of millions of times faster than the Primordial Space, but they were still easily accepted. These were all possibilities, and Lu Yin could only rely on guesses for now.
Even if Yi Xing had it, he wouldn't give it to him.
He should not place his hopes on Yi Xing. He had to find out if others had such a parallel universe through Yi Xing.
With a cracking sound, the lightning swept across horizontally. Not far away, there was a huge tornado.
Lu Yin took a step forward and began to understand this parallel spacetime. Only by understanding it would he be recognized.
A month later, in the sky above the ocean, Lu Yin's astral source was frantically sweeping through the entire ocean, causing it to expand in all directions. Within the ocean, numerous behemoths stared at Lu Yin in fear. Some were fish, some were turtles, and there were even many other strange creatures.
These creatures were constantly wagging their tails or praying to Lu Yin in their own ways.
He discovered that although the creatures here were all beasts of the sea, they were quite intelligent and knew how to beg and submit.
The entire parallel space-time was an ocean that was divided up by these colossal creatures. They had territorial awareness, and some of them would even form alliances to deal with the stronger oceans first.
The beasts would then fight their own battles.
This was clearly a unique oceanic civilization.
As long as they had a civilization, things would be easier.
The only way Lu Yin could think of was to beat them all into submission. He could not possibly reason with these beasts and teach them. These beasts were not without a civilization, and their survival of the fittest was engraved in their bones. Thus, this was the only way to suppress them.
Wherever Lu Yin went, his astral source's pressure would suffice. The stronger a creature was, the more they would feel fear, especially when faced with an irresistible force. No one would resist, and they would all choose to submit.
Two months, three months, and then five months passed. Lu Yin swept through the entire spacetime and made all the strongest creatures in this spacetime submit. Less than half a month had passed in the Primordial Space.
Twelve times the normal flow of time gave Lu Yin twelve times more time.
He felt that this spacetime no longer rejected him. This feeling had not been noticeable in the past, but it had become increasingly obvious after going to the Fifth Spacetime. Now, Lu Yin was certain that he had been accepted by this spacetime.
Compared to using force to suppress, educating the rod node was obviously more troublesome and would take ten years. If Yi Xing had taken out this parallel spacetime from the beginning, Lu Yin knew that he would not have needed to waste so much time.
Although it was a pity, he could not blame Yi Xing. From the beginning to the end, Yi Xing had been forced.
It was time.
Lu Yin used his inner world, Flowing Light.
Flowing Light appeared, and the feeling was the same as when it had appeared in the Fifth Spacetime. It felt like he had fallen into a swamp. If he had not adapted to the Fifth Spacetime beforehand, this feeling would have been even stronger.
In the Fifth Spacetime, Lu Yin had been able to use Flowing Light smoothly after being accepted by this spacetime. However, he still felt like he had fallen into a swamp in this spacetime. Could it be that he had not been accepted yet?
Lu Yin looked at the starry sky and waited.
After a long time, he finally relaxed. There was no danger of being rejected, which proved that this spacetime had indeed accepted him.
These sea creatures were the overlords of this spacetime, just like how Lu Yin was the master of the Fifth Mainland. Gaining their approval and even making them submit naturally meant that he was accepted by this spacetime.
Since it had accepted him, why did he still feel like he had fallen into a swamp?
Lu Yin began to use Flowing Light to adapt to this spacetime. No matter what, he had to give it a try.
…
Above the Sky Sect, Tuo Lin stared blankly at the books piled up in front of him. The Second Nightking was behind the books and could not enter at all.
"These are the books that the Daolord ordered for you. Please take a look, Junior Headmaster."
The Second Nightking respectfully said with a hint of envy. This youth had been accepted as the Daolord's disciple. In the Primordial Space, even a Progenitor would not have a higher status than the Second Nightking.
Tuo Lin was stunned. "So many?"
The Second Nightking replied, "This is only a small portion of a small portion. More are being shipped over."
Tuo Lin's face paled. More?
How could he possibly finish reading all of them?
Looking at the pile of books, which was really piled up like a mountain, he started to have doubts in an instant.
"Junior Headmaster, these books are from the various sects and clans. They are all about human history. Once you've finished reading them, please inform me so that I can return them," the Second Nightking said respectfully.
Tuo Lin frowned. "Are these books very precious?"
"Very," the Second Nightking replied. This was what Lu Yin had instructed him to say.
Tuo Lin
He took a deep breath. His master would not lie to him. If he wanted to, he could have just found some ordinary books. Why did he have to find these precious books?
Only these books recorded the history that ordinary people could not see.
Yes, his master's expectations of him were too high, so much so that his test was very heavy.
He recalled every word that Lu Yin had said to him, as well as the look of praise in his eyes. For a moment, Tuo Lin felt a stifling sensation in his chest, but he spat it out fiercely. His gaze was unprecedentedly resolute. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, no matter how long his master's test lasted, he would complete it.
He had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting humanity. He was the savior of the world.
"Come." Tuo Lin picked up the book in front of him and began to read.
The Second Nightking did not know why Tuo Lin was suddenly so excited, but he decided to let him be and just read. These books were enough for him to read for several years.
…
In the Sky Sect's back mountain, Lu Yin waved his hand, and a stream of light shot out. He silently counted: One, two, three … thirteen. Eh?
There's more?
Fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen.
The stream of light returned to his body, and Lu Yin was shocked. How could it be eighteen seconds?
He had thought that after the stream of light adapted to a parallel space-time that flowed twelve times faster, he would be able to see the scene from twelve seconds ago, just like how he could see the scene from five seconds ago after adapting to a time flow five times faster.
But why was it eighteen seconds now?
Eighteen seconds could be understood as one second plus five seconds plus twelve seconds, which added up to eighteen seconds. In other words, it was the Origin Space plus the Fifth Space-Time plus the Twelfth Space-Time.
Why was it like this?
Lu Yin could not figure it out for a long time, but it seemed to be a good thing.
He had originally thought that it would be twelve seconds, but now it was eighteen seconds. If he went to a parallel space-time with a different flow of time, it could still be stacked, which meant that he could see even further back.
One minute?
Two hours?
One day?
Or a month?
Or even a year?
Lu Yin used the stream of light again, but he could still only reverse time by one second. However, he could see what had happened eighteen seconds ago. This was truly incomprehensible.
He was now more and more eager to obtain a parallel space-time with a different flow of time.
Not long after, Lu Yin returned from the back garden with an ugly expression.
He had asked Zijing about the space-time that the Hyperspace Dimension had given them to study the sequence particles. The flow of time was a hundred times faster than the Origin Space.
It was a pity that the Hyperspace Dimension had been destroyed by Hui Zu.
Lu Yin's eyes flickered as he contacted Madam Nalan and asked her to come to the Above Heaven Sect.
"Path Master, you've frightened Yi Xing's people by calling me here. They thought that you wanted a parallel spacetime with a different flow of time." Madam Nalan looked at Lu Yin lazily, and her bright eyes seemed to steal his soul.
Lu Yin laughed. "They guessed right. I really do want a parallel space-time with a different flow of time."
Madam Nalan was shocked. "But it hasn't been that long."
Lu Yin did not know how to explain this to her, nor did he need to. "Does Yi Xing have such a space-time?"
Madam Nalan was certain. "Definitely, but they all tacitly agreed not to tell me. I asked Bi Teng about it, but he didn't tell me at all."
As the Above Heaven Sect grew stronger, Lu Yin and the other members of the Above Heaven Sect became more direct in their actions. This phenomenon was a good thing, as it meant that the people of the Origin Space were very confident. However, it was also a bad thing, as this sense of superiority would destroy some people.
