Chapter 1094 Time is not merciless, but the fairest judge.
Inside the magic lamp of space.
Cang Mingzi was completely dumbfounded.
He now possesses a divine artifact—the Space Seal!
In the cultivation world of Qingyuan Star, at most a few down-on-their-luck immortals have emerged by accident, but how could they possibly seal divine artifacts?
Or is it a divine artifact at its peak, possessing a spirit?
Unfortunately, he can't do anything now, he can't even move.
After removing Li He and Cang Mingzi, Su Xiaoya put the puppet "Su Mingyi" into a separate jade box and sealed it away.
Looking around, Su Xiaoya immediately made a hand seal and unleashed a wide-range light magic spell—"Ten Thousand Stars Falling, Galaxy Falling to Earth".
"Ten Thousand Stars Fall, Galaxy Descends to Earth" draws upon the power of the galaxy to transform into a thousand-meter-long meteor of light, covering hundreds of miles and forming a deep crater of light that continues to burn, purifying dark and evil elements and creating a permanent zone of light.
Just as all the ghosts, monsters, and bone demons were completely purified, Su Xiaoya felt a blur before her eyes and found herself in a vast starry sky.
It felt somewhat similar to the vast starry sky in her own sea of consciousness, yet also somewhat different.
The Three Gates of the North Sea Secret Realm:
The first level – the Miasma City.
The second level – the Cave of Ten Thousand Souls.
So, have you successfully passed the second level and entered the third level?
Sure enough, before Su Xiaoya could be puzzled for long, the countless stars in the vast starry sky began to tremble wildly, and then formed a meteor shower.
Crucially, the meteors combined to form four large, glittering characters – Void Temple.
Su Xiaoya smiled.
Therefore, Cangmingzi was merely a gatekeeper, no, a gatekeeper artifact.
Ha ha!
The master of the North Sea Secret Realm—the Space God—is no ordinary being, capable of using divine artifacts to guard checkpoints and misleading challengers with the artifact's spirit.
As she traveled along, Su Xiaoya came to understand that the North Sea Secret Realm not only contained the inheritance of the Great Dao of Space, but also the Great Dao of Time.
Perhaps, there is also the Great Dao of Reincarnation?
At this moment, Su Xiaoya felt something.
Su Xiaoya was like a dazzling pearl, suspended in the vast and boundless starry sky, with swirling nebulae beneath her feet and billions of twinkling stars above her head, like a gem embedded in the night sky.
The meteors that formed the words "Void Temple" did not dissipate. Instead, they seemed to be given life, transforming into four dazzling pillars of light that stood like giant pillars supporting the sky in all directions of the starry sky.
Countless silver-gray spatial patterns intertwined between the pillars of light. As the patterns flowed, the faint shadows of palaces and pavilions could be seen appearing and disappearing in the starlight, like a mirage.
She could clearly feel that the power of the laws of this world was so dense that it was almost tangible, hundreds or thousands of times denser than that of the outside world.
The barriers of space resembled transparent glass, shimmering faintly in the light and shadow, with countless tiny spatial cracks opening and closing playfully within them like mischievous sprites.
The flow of time also becomes incredibly mysterious, sometimes as fast as lightning, sometimes as slow as a snail, and you can even catch strands of pale golden time threads entwining around your fingertips, as if telling the secrets of time.
At the intersection of space and time, a deep and ancient aura permeated the air, as if it were a call from ancient times, connecting the other side of the cycle of life and death, causing the reincarnation bloodline within her body to stir restlessly like a ignited flame.
"As expected, this is the place where the three supreme paths of space, time, and reincarnation are passed down." Su Xiaoya took a deep breath, trying to suppress the turbulent emotions surging in her heart like a vast ocean.
She could sense that this Void Temple was not an ordinary physical building, but an illusion formed by the condensation of laws, like a mysterious treasure trove. Only those who truly comprehend the essence of the Great Dao can unveil its mystery and touch the core of its inheritance.
Without any hesitation, Su Xiaoya took the lead in stepping towards the pillar of light to the east, guided by her intuition. The spatial patterns within the pillar were as dense as a spider web, and the silver-gray light surged like flowing water, exuding a pure and rich aura of spatial laws.
As soon as she stepped into the range of the pillar of light, Su Xiaoya felt as light as a feather. The surrounding starry sky instantly became distorted and deformed, and countless spatial fragments shattered and reassembled like mirrors. Countless overlapping figures appeared before her eyes.
These figures include her heroic figure breaking through the formation in the Miasma Sea City; her righteous and awe-inspiring presence when purifying demons in the Cave of Ten Thousand Souls; and even different scenes she experienced before, such as when she first established the Imperial Preceptor Hall and went to the East Sea twice...
However, Su Xiaoya's understanding of the Great Dao of Space was like that of a wise person who had reached the pinnacle, and she had already reached an extremely high level. Therefore, she was not confused. She simply focused on feeling every bit of spatial power and experiencing the subtle differences within it.
"The essence of space is the folding and connection of dimensions." An ancient and majestic voice resounded in her mind, as if it came from a god in ancient times, not from the outside world, but from the resonance of the law itself.
She could clearly sense that space was not a flat plane, but was composed of countless tiny spatial particles, which were like stars in the universe, and could be infinitely divided or infinitely aggregated.
Just like the space travel technique she used before, it was merely a childish and superficial manipulation of the arrangement of spatial particles. The true path of space, however, can fold and overlap spaces of different dimensions and regions like a master, traversing billions of miles in a single step, and even creating independent spatial realms.
Suddenly, the surrounding spatial fragments began to squeeze out like a tidal wave. Su Xiaoya felt as if her body was being torn apart by countless invisible hands, as if she were about to be crushed into dust.
She showed no panic, but instead, like a steady mountain, she circulated the "Myriad Transformations Heart Sutra," merging her own aura with the spatial particles.
Gradually, she felt herself transform into a wisp of spatial airflow, like a light butterfly, able to freely move between the fragments. The squeezing forces not only did not harm her, but instead became a bridge for her to understand the resilience of space, like a gentle breeze.
She began to manipulate the surrounding spatial laws, her fingertips gliding across the surface like a nimble dancer, and a silver-gray spatial blade condensed like a dazzling beam of light, its power several times stronger than before.
Then, she formed a mudra with her hands and tried to fold the space in front of her.
At first, the space fluctuated slightly, but as her understanding of the arrangement of spatial particles deepened, a crack suddenly appeared in the starry sky before her, and on the other side of the crack was the scene of the Ten Thousand Souls Cave—she had successfully connected the two different spaces!
"The true meaning of space lies in its boundlessness." Su Xiaoya suddenly understood.
She no longer clung to the form of space, but instead allowed her divine consciousness to merge with the laws, sensing the expansion, folding, fragmentation, and recombination of space...
After an unknown amount of time, a silver-gray aura of law began to surround her, and the spatial patterns, like snakes, burrowed into her body, completely merging with the fragments of the spatial seal in her dantian.
At this moment, her understanding of the Great Dao of Space has progressed from beginner to expert. She can now easily handle spatial traversal, spatial sealing, and spatial cutting, and can even initially construct small-scale spatial secret realms.
When Su Xiaoya stepped out of the spatial pillar of light, the trajectory of the stars was reflected in her eyes, and she could tear space apart with a flick of her finger.
Indeed, there is no end to learning.
As long as you keep learning, you can continuously break through your own limits.
At this moment, Su Xiaoya was exceptionally clear-headed and her mind was exceptionally sharp.
Ah!
It's a good day for cultivation.
Su Xiaoya couldn't help but look with great interest at the dazzling pillar of light in the south—the pillar of light was like a majestic golden mountain, radiating a pale golden light, and the aura of the laws of time flowed like a babbling brook, allowing her to truly feel the vicissitudes and mysteries of time.
The moment Su Xiaoya stepped into the pillar of time, she felt everything around her slow down, as if she had been enchanted.
She could clearly see her hair growing slowly, like strands of silver swaying in the breeze;
She saw the dust particles in the air slowly drifting down, like feathers fluttering in the air;
She could even see the trajectory of the power of laws flowing through time, a trajectory as mysterious and captivating as the twinkling stars in the night sky.
At the same time, countless images flashed before her eyes like a movie:
In ancient times, the God of Space and the God of Time fought side by side, like two dazzling stars, together creating the myriad worlds.
In the medieval era, cultivators fought like hungry wolves for the inheritance of time, stirring up waves of bloodshed; in a future fragment, she saw herself as a war god, standing tall above the river of time, confronting powerful enemies...
"The essence of time is the flow of cause and effect and the measure of fate." That ancient voice, like a resounding bell, rang in her ears once more.
Su Xiaoya knew that time was not a single linear flow, but a vast river woven from countless threads of cause and effect. Everyone's fate rose and fell in this magnificent river. By mastering the great principle of time, one could be like a fish in water, go against the current, peek into the past, foresee the future, and even change the established cause and effect.
However, the Great Dao of Time is far more dangerous than the Great Dao of Space. A slight misstep can lead to falling into an abyss, being swallowed by the turbulent currents of time, eroded by the power of the years, or even getting lost in the labyrinth of cause and effect.
Su Xiaoya dared not be careless. She circulated her divine sense, merging the power of light within her body with the laws of time. The power of light was extremely yang and pure, capable of dispelling the evil energy in the turbulent flow of time and protecting her soul from being eroded.
She began to try to capture the threads of time, those pale golden threads that were delicate yet strong, each one connected to a causal node.
She reached out her finger and gently touched one of the threads. Instantly, countless pieces of information flooded into her mind—the life of an ordinary cultivator, from birth, cultivation, core formation, nascent soul, to the eventual exhaustion of lifespan and return to heaven and earth.
Su Xiaoya could sense his joys and sorrows, and see the various choices he made on his path of cultivation. These choices were like crossroads that eventually converged to form the trajectory of his destiny.
Next, she tried to manipulate the laws of time, speeding up the flow of time around her—the starry sky before her eyes changed instantly, and the speed at which stars were born and died increased by more than a hundred times, as if a thousand years had passed in the blink of an eye.
She reversed the flow of time, and the rapidly rising and falling stars slowly turned back, returning to their original state...
During this process, Su Xiaoya carefully experienced the immense pressure her soul was under. The backlash from the laws of time caused blood to spill from the corner of her mouth, but her eyes grew increasingly resolute as she continuously adjusted her resonance with the laws.
She recalled the destructive power of the tsunami in the fragments of time, the tragic state of the souls in the Cave of Ten Thousand Souls after being corrupted by the power of time, and the loneliness of Cang Mingzi, as the spirit of a divine artifact, trapped in the secret realm for countless years...
At this moment, Su Xiaoya gained a deeper understanding of the Great Dao of Time: Time is not ruthless, but the most impartial judge. It can make or break everything. Only by conforming to the laws and controlling one's own cause and effect can one stand firm in the long river of time.
