Chapter 1068: The Direction of the Eighth Extreme
"Time is not just accelerated passage, reversing years, and freezing."
"There is also a deeper level of display..."
Xu Qing looked at the vast desert in front of him. At the moment of understanding the essence of this desert, even though he possessed the power of time, his heart was still stirred by the way time was displayed here, and he had many thoughts.
"Time can be macroscopic, falling on all star rings, or rather... falling on all living beings. As long as it exists, it is within its scope."
"The long river of time is everywhere."
"But it is not fixed and unchanging. Whether it is the influence of external forces or other changes, it can cause it to produce different changes."
"And what this desert displays is the branching of time."
Xu Qing took a deep breath, and the sense of epiphany in his heart became clearer.
"A grain of sand, every time it moves, will form a time line, and then on this time line, a second grain of sand appears."
"The first grain of sand and the second grain of sand are essentially the same, but the time lines are different."
"Operating like this, the time lines become more and more, forming chaos, just like this desert. If it can finally return to one, then it is equivalent to walking within time, but independent outside of time, which can be called control."
Xu Qing's eyes revealed a strange light.
"But unfortunately, I cannot do it now, I can only make it produce disorderly."
"And this kind of disorderly time line produced based on the change of the object itself, to some extent, seems to have appeared... different fates?"
"Every time one more time line appears, one more grain of sand based on this time line appears. The trend of this grain of sand after that has nothing to do with the most primitive grain of sand, and it becomes an independent path."
Xu Qing recalled the fate divine power possessed by his divine body, and gradually a strange feeling emerged in his heart.
Because he found that the authority and divine power actually seemed to have the same effect at this moment.
"But there are also some subtle differences. My fate divine power uses a carving knife to carve new fate silk threads, thereby allowing it to stand out and become dominant."
"But time branching is to evolve the object itself into a large number of different time lines..."
"The specific difference should have a clearer understanding when returning to Wanggu in the future, when the immortal body and divine body return to one."
"And now..."
Xu Qing's eyes revealed a dim light. He was thinking about how to display this time branching ability in battle.
At the same time, he took out a bottle of Liaoxuan Holy Liquid and drank it in one gulp.
These days, he had already drunk two bottles, and the one he took out now was the third bottle.
With the spread of the Liaoxuan Holy Liquid, Xu Qing's thoughts were also boiling.
"It can be used on myself. With every move I make, and even every heartbeat, I can form different time lines."
"Although I cannot make it return to one, I can use my own fate sundial to burst it out to the outside world at once, forming a chaotic sea of time!"
"Those who enter my chaotic sea will bear the power of time, immersed in chaos, and in countless time lines, they will either die or go mad!"
"If it is on the enemy... it is the same!"
"Every action of the opponent will form a disorderly time line. After more and more, because the opponent cannot control this change, they can only face it passively, causing chaos to themselves!"
"Even producing the feeling of that god, where one glance makes all flesh and blood independent. This divine ability, even a Sovereign can hardly avoid!"
Xu Qing's eyes rose with coldness.
"Entering the sea is all suffering, leading to calamity, no time to escape, so it is called... Wu Jian (Avici)!"
Xu Qing formed seals with both hands, operating his own power, covering the entire desert, and in his heart, he condensed his thoughts into ideas, imprinted them into the Dao, and imprinted them into the Seventh Extreme.
After doing these, his thoughts were still spreading.
The ability of the Liaoxuan Holy Liquid was also constantly volatilizing at this moment, making Xu Qing's already astonishing comprehension continuously blessed.
"In addition, regarding the ability of time branching, there should be other better display methods, which I need to ponder in detail later."
"For example... combined with spatial power?"
Xu Qing pondered, and after a long while, his heart suddenly moved.
"The extra time lines produced, plus a space unique to that time line, what appears is..."
"A... fate that is the same as my origin but with a different future?"
Xu Qing's breathing suddenly became rapid. He vaguely felt that he seemed to have grasped something.
"Or to be precise, it should be called... space-time?"
"Space-time based on me?"
"In countless space-times, countless me..."
Xu Qing suddenly raised his head, his heart stirred violently at this moment, and he immediately began to try.
Time passed, three days passed.
Xu Qing was still immersed in his own enlightenment, exploring the method of fusion of time and space.
During this period, he deduced some of the ideas he thought of, and actually unfolded some, but the results were without exception, all failed.
So he simply changed his thoughts, focusing on the disorderly formation of time lines, and tried to turn his spatial power into a box to accommodate the time lines.
This process was very slow.
But Xu Qing didn't care about these, all his energy was immersed in it.
However... for Yunmen Qianfan, the shock in her heart grew with Xu Qing's cultivation!
Her cultivation was at the Return to Void realm. Although whether she could break through to become Spirit Containment depended on opportunity, as one of the family cores, she possessed insight.
But even if her insight was not bad, and she had been in contact with other Sovereigns, these past few days, she was still stirred by the scene of Xu Qing's cultivation, causing endless storms in her heart.
The formation of this storm, following Xu Qing's enlightenment of the desert, was an explosive outbreak in Yunmen Qianfan's heart.
The first few days were because she noticed that all the sand grains in the entire desert were gradually shining, and finally, this desert turned into a brilliant starry sky in her eyes.
This made her heart ripple.
Then, all the sand grains were trembling, and for a short period, wherever Yunmen Qianfan looked, all the sand grains actually rose into the sky.
That dreamlike feeling affected her cognition, and the ripples of her mood became huge waves.
But compared to these, what happened later was even more subversive to her imagination.
She found... Xu Qing's body appeared distorted, appeared blurry, as if overlapping, and she didn't know if she was dazzled, but for a moment, she seemed to see countless Xu Qings!
Although these disappeared like hallucinations in the blink of an eye, what followed was the trembling of her body and intense dizziness.
The world spinning.
And what made her even more horrified was that in this dizziness, she aged in an instant, became a child in an instant, and recovered in an instant.
And hallucinations appeared frequently, as if experiencing one life after another.
Joys and sorrows, love and hate, were all in it. Fortunately, these were terminated after Xu Qing noticed at the critical moment and raised his hand to form seals, and there was a gentle force enveloping her, isolating the influence.
Otherwise, she would have become dry bones by now.
These scenes made Yunmen Qianfan's heart storm extremely violent.
"Even the ancestor didn't give me this feeling..."
Yunmen Qianfan gasped repeatedly, hurriedly retreating a distance, not daring to approach Xu Qing.
While feeling awe in her heart, there was also a sense of security even richer than before rising in her heart.
She once again confirmed that her divination Dao was extremely correct this time.
As for the life and death of other core clansmen, she didn't know, but she understood that this time, she should be fine.
At the same time, she vaguely felt that her divination technique seemed to have changed after experiencing these scenes just now.
"The changes caused by Senior Yan Xuanzi's cultivation, to some extent, coincide with the divination Dao?"
Yunmen Qianfan was thoughtful, sitting cross-legged in the distance, carefully sensing.
Just like this, two more days passed.
The entire desert became even more brilliant, countless sand grains constantly rose into the sky, pulling each other, forming a storm in this desert while circling.
When the rumbling sound spread to all directions, outside this desert, on the earth, a person walked over.
The person was a woman.
Dressed in a black gauze dress, holding a black long spear, her face was beautiful, but her expression was fierce, and her whole body exuded an icy aura.
She stood outside the desert storm, took a step, and stepped into the range of the desert.
But it was only one step, and the whole person paused.
After a while, she slowly withdrew her steps and stood there, as if turning into an iceberg, the surrounding air was frozen by her aura, and there was an invisible pressure spreading in all directions.
As if all living beings, as long as they approached, would be swallowed by that cold air.
However, all the momentum of this iceberg only appeared for a few breaths. With the withdrawal of her steps and the gazing, it began to melt.
Everything was quickly replaced by a sense of heaviness.
"Time Desert..."
"Time authority!"
"No wonder the previous elders and guest elders died bizarrely, so much so that I was summoned to stop him. This guest elder of the Yunmen family is not only a Sovereign, but most likely a mid-stage Sovereign!"
"His purpose in hiding in the Yunmen family must also be that secret key..."
The woman was silent.
As a peerless genius of the Earth Spirit Clan and the owner of the Quasi-Immortal Capital Order, she had fought countless battles in her life, and her insight surpassed ninety-nine percent of the clansmen.
She had confidence in fighting anyone of the same realm.
But now... the heaviness on her expression was gradually mixed with an increasingly strong sense of crisis in her heart.
That step just now, she felt death.
"This person, I am not an opponent."
After a brief silence, the woman took a deep breath and slowly retreated.
After three steps, her body suddenly paused, and her expression changed instantly.
She realized that her retreat was still a bit late.
The time she stood here was also a bit long, and during this period, her heartbeat and inner thoughts, as well as her body's movements, were too many.
Most importantly, she shouldn't have taken that step into the desert.
So, in her unconsciousness just now, time lines had already formed on her body, making her retreating body appear distorted, blurry, and overlapping.
But as a Sovereign, she was also extraordinary. The moment she noticed her abnormality, she raised her cultivation without hesitation, and was even more decisive, sparing no cost to collapse her own secret treasure, using its power to bless her own authority, and burst out. In a moment, a real and vast giant iceberg, with her as the center, roared up toward all directions and stood outside the desert.
Freezing everything, coldly condensing everything, including herself and time!
A few days later, the iceberg still stood.
And the storm on the desert slowly dissipated, and the entire desert returned to normal.
Xu Qing opened his eyes at this time.
He didn't look at the iceberg in the distance, only sighed at his own enlightenment in his heart.
After this period of attempts, he found that because his understanding was not enough, he finally could not make time and space fuse.
"But this is a direction, the direction of the Eighth Extreme!"
Xu Qing took a deep breath, raised his hand and waved, the desert immediately churned, all the sand grains were shaking, countless times here were intersecting, and the brilliant light was colorful.
Finally, it gathered in front of Xu Qing and became a brilliant road.
"Let's go."
Xu Qing stood up and spoke to Yunmen Qianfan.
And at this moment, Yunmen Qianfan was looking at the iceberg that suddenly appeared in her cognition, especially looking at the woman's figure sealed inside the iceberg, recognizing the other party, and instinctively looking at Xu Qing.
"Senior, she..."
"She tried to freeze time, but failed. She is not dead yet, but it's not much different from being dead."
"Ah, that... the things on her?" Yunmen Qianfan blinked.
Xu Qing shook his head and didn't continue to speak.
Because, the Wu Jian Sea sealed in that iceberg, although it was triggered by him, he also didn't have the ability to make it return to one. If he stepped into it, he would also be trapped in it.
Of course, Xu Qing would naturally not expose this point.
At this moment, he took a step forward, walked on the brilliant road in front of him, crossed time while walking, crossed the desert, and when he appeared... he was already in front of an ancient giant stone array.
Behind him, Yunmen Qianfan followed obediently. ===== CHAPTER 1071 =====
