Chapter 1080

Under the desperate efforts of the Twelve Yuan Chen, the figure behind the vortex finally appeared.

These eleven figures were no one else but the Twelve Yuan Chen themselves.

And their posture of existence was identical to that of the Time Dao's True Spirit previously summoned.

If observed closely, the previously summoned Time Dao's True Spirit was precisely the missing Yuan Chen.

In other words, the Twelve Yuan Chen this time were reflecting themselves, transforming into their own versions of the Time Dao's True Spirit.

The Twelve Yuan Chen, in their current state, could never achieve transformation into the Time Dao's True Spirit.

Even with the protection of the Heavenly Dao, the Twelve Yuan Chen could not accomplish it.

Because their realm was far too low; if they forcibly attempted to transform into the Time Dao's True Spirit, the only outcome would be direct assimilation by the Changhe.

Therefore, the Time Dao's True Spirit summoned by the Twelve Yuan Chen was their future selves.

More precisely, it was their selves from some future timeline.

Transforming into the Time Dao's True Spirit was not a good choice, even if one fused with the Time Dao itself.

But for the Twelve Yuan Chen, it was indeed a decent choice.

Because the Twelve Yuan Chen did not need to truly become the Time Dao's True Spirit—they only needed to hold that thought.

A single thought of a person can often give rise to a future branch.

Most of these futures born from thoughts are merely illusions.

But for cultivators who master the Time Dao, these illusions hold immense value.

The Time Dao's True Spirit summoned by the Twelve Yuan Chen was also a wildly inventive application of the Time Dao.

Many divine arts carry side effects.

Such divine arts may be immensely powerful, but their side effects are equally potent.

Normal people have only one life—they could never cultivate such arts, no matter how powerful they were.

But if one had infinite lives and it did not affect their true self, then cultivation might no longer be impossible.

A single thought of a person could give rise to a future branch.
