Chapter 696: This is indeed a wrong path

~8 min read 1,435 words

This is indeed a wrong path

Correct, Cheng Shi activated "Fate also has a wrong path." He saw Qin Xin's plan and also realized that when Qin Xin chose such a way to skip class, what the opponent said just now "didn't find Abyss Color Crystals" could only be true.

And this also means that his guess was all wrong. The reason for the 【Time】 disparity was not on the Abyss Color Crystals. So, before thinking of a second inference, Cheng Shi chose to help Qin Xin at this last moment.

Of course, for Cheng Shi, this doesn't count as helping. He also wants to try to see if the answer to 【Time】 is hidden in the void. After all, on the point of going home, he and the current Qin Xin still have a common goal.

But when reality shattered and everything fell into the void, Cheng Shi and Qin Xin realized they were wrong.

Wrong, terribly wrong!

This is not the void.

Although the place they fell into was as dark as the void, players who often step into the void can recognize at a glance that this will never be the void. Because although it is dark before their eyes, looking toward the periphery, the "horizon" beyond the infinite is full of eye-piercing white light!

Those distorted and mixed 【Existence】 fragments like a revolving lantern are flickering and flowing in the outermost layer of this dark space. Qin Xin realized in shock that perhaps this is not the territory of 【Nothingness】 at all. They are still in the space of 【Existence】, but this position has fallen from the orderly surface of reality to the disordered and messy gaps of 【Existence】!

Qin Xin has never been here, but with his understanding of 【Memory】 and 【Existence】, it is not difficult to find that this is like the interlayer of some 【Existence】 planes. That is to say, in the trial where time lines are intertwined, what they broke is likely not just the reality of a certain world, but the outer wall of the chaotic 【Existence】 body intertwined by time lines!

They fell into the gaps of 【Existence】, fell into the pores where time lines are intertwined, and looking at this appearance, it seems they will keep falling down, until...

Forgotten by 【Memory】, blurred by 【Time】!

Qin Xin was startled. His whole body tightened, and he immediately gathered his last strength to draw his bow and shoot, shooting an arrow with a rope toward Cheng Shi at a high place. It looked like he wanted to use Cheng Shi's higher position to hang himself, so as to plot how to climb up from this gap of 【Existence】.

But why did Cheng Shi fall slower than Qin Xin?

Is it because he is lighter without heavy armor?

No!

Because he didn't fall at all!

He didn't fall endlessly like Qin Xin, because he always stood in the passage built by 【Death】, holding that pale bone door, cautiously not moving at all!

And this passage built by 【Death】 himself is like the strongest fortress in this space that is enough to grind 【Existence】, saving Cheng Shi's life again.

Whether it is the protection of 【Death】 or the steadiness learned from Old Zhang, they all saved his life at this critical moment!

So this Warrior of Today who stood by the door suddenly became the only life-saving straw in this space, becoming the supreme anchor point that would not fall in the gaps of 【Existence】!

But Cheng Shi is not happy at this moment, because he realized that skipping class failed. 【Fate】 was right, this is indeed a wrong path...

Thus, Cheng Shi, with a black face, casually grasped the arrow Qin Xin shot up, tied it to the door, and wearing the vest of the only life-saving straw, launched a friendly (extortionate) exchange with the teammate below who wanted to survive.

He first glanced at the watch in his hand and found that even the object recording time had frozen. And then he poked his head to look at Qin Xin hanging below, and said sarcastically:

"Believers of 【War】 are reckless. Your arrows are shot so well, could the arrowheads be made of brains?"

As he spoke, he also knocked on his own head, "Here, empty?"

"..." Qin Xin's expression stalled, sighed, "I just didn't expect His trial to be so comprehensive. However, Fate-Weaver, this last blow to break the barrier was not done by me."

"?"

So it's my fault?

Cheng Shi sneered, immediately untied the rope tied to the door.

Qin Xin fell suddenly by a third, and immediately changed his words: "You are helping me. For this, I express gratitude."

Cheng Shi exerted force and tied the rope back again. He poked his head to look at the "abyss" below, happy: "Warrior Qin is quite good at seeing the wind and steering the rudder. It seems you haven't been beaten by society less, right?"

"..." Qin Xin felt that his power recovery speed was not fast, sighed helplessly again, "Beaten every moment, used to it."

"No wonder there is so much resentment, feeling like you vented all your anger on me?" Cheng Shi laughed angrily. He leaned on the door cautiously, his eyes looking around, but his mouth continued to chat with Qin Xin.

"Where is this?"

"I don't know, but I guess it's the gap of 【Existence】."

"The gap of 【Existence】? 【Existence】 still has gaps?" Cheng Shi was stunned.

"Yes, but I only heard about it, but I have never been here."

"A bit interesting. Where did you hear about it? Has your world developed to the point of starting to study this?"

Development?

Qin Xin frowned slightly and shook his head:

"It can't be said to be development, it's just that everyone is forced to have no choice, and has to think of more ways on the crooked road.

【Fate】 is changeable, 【Time】 is multi-line. Since 【Fate】 is elusive, everyone can only add more research on 【Time】.

I heard that some organizations have been studying 【Time】. They seem to have found a method to use 【Time】 gaps, which can send people to another time line.

Of course, whether this method exists, is feasible, and can succeed, I don't know at all, because the Fire-Tenders... haven't mastered this method.

We also don't want to go to other people's worlds.

Cheng Shi, I can accept all your questions about me, but I cannot accept this one.

Qin Xin has never wanted to tend other people's fire. What we want to do is protect beauty, not seek beauty.

The beauty outside has nothing to do with us. Our own world should be protected by ourselves!"

"..."

After hearing these words, Cheng Shi felt mixed feelings in his heart.

The good news is, although this Qin Xin looks unpleasant, he is at least a real man.

The bad news is, his guess was indeed correct. Jiang Chi is likely the "disparity" who came to his time line through this 【Time】 gap.

Of course, disparity is just a way of saying it. His appearance means that the crisis of the 【Faith Game】 no longer arises purely between players, nor does it all come from Them. Now there is one more item, and that is the careerists who covet time lines other than their own.

They will always want to go to other worlds for various purposes. So, what exactly happened in the world where Qin Xin is?

Cheng Shi frowned, reached out and grabbed the rope, and dragged Qin Xin up bit by bit with a look of disgust.

"Why is the so-called fire-tending difficult? What exactly happened to your world?"

Qin Xin, who was being pulled up bit by bit, had a complex look on his face. He looked at the abyss under his feet and sighed:

"【Decay】 has fallen, the balance of faith has been broken, and the whole world has become the nourishment for 【Prosperity】 to wantonly absorb. The gods have started wars again. Whether it is reality or trials, it is becoming more and more difficult.

The 【Faith Game】... seems to be becoming unsustainable."

"!!??"

What is this?

【Decay】 has fallen?

【Decay】 actually fell on that time line?

What's the situation? Was He eaten by 【Prosperity】?

But...

This is not right, brother!

Are 【They】 not existences that transcend the dimension of time?

If his world is the fall of 【Prosperity】, logically speaking, the world where Qin Xin is should also be the fall of 【Prosperity】. How could it be the fall of 【Decay】?

Where exactly... did it go wrong? ===== CHAPTER 697 =====
