The QY-E63 spacecraft set sail again. It went into the wormhole and headed straight for the Great Qian Empire.
âThe wormhole is an extremely peculiar presence in the universe.
âItâs a narrow tunnel thatâs able to connect two different spaces. It might also be a space tunnel that connects a black hole and a white hole. Hence, itâs called a gray tunnel.
âRegardless, you can travel through space instantly using a wormhole⦠or rather, travel through time!â Round Ball happily showed off its knowledge in the command room of the spacecraft.
âTime travel!â There was a strange glow in Wang Tengâs eyes.
He had never come into contact with this mysterious field. Time was hard to grasp. It was many times more mysterious than space.
Round Ball smiled when it saw Wang Tengâs interest was piqued. It continued, âWhen the universe was born, everything was in chaos. Then, it operated by itself, and time and space came into being. These nine basic elements form the physical universe: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, and dark. They encompass everything.â
âChaos!â Wang Teng seemed to have caught something.
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, dark⦠He had everything!
He even had the space talent.
âYou should already count your luck since you possess the space talent. This is already very impressive. But if you want to have the time talent, I only have one word for you: Difficult!
âExtremely difficult!
âClose to impossible!â
Round Ball turned serious. It shook its head and continued, âOnly the deities can touch time. Ordinary beings wonât be able to feel it at all.
âIn the past, there were talents in the universe that possessed the time talent. What do you think happened to them?â
âWhat?â Wang Teng played along. He had to admit that Round Ball had ignited his interest.
People born with the time talent must be immensely powerful. But based on Round Ballâs tone, their ending didnât seem good.
âThey were corroded by time. Those who played with time get devoured by it,â Round Ball said after a moment of silence.
âCorroded by time?!â Wang Teng frowned, contemplating the meaning.
âSomeone used his time talent too early, which resulted in his physical body aging drastically because his lifespan wasnât long enough. In the end, he died an unwilling death. Others drew lessons from their predecessors and focused on building their foundation in the early stage of life. They only started using their time talent after reaching a high stage and gaining a longer lifespan. During their cultivation, they gained many benefits. They were indomitable. However, even martial warriors at the eternal stage are nothing in front of time. Some got devoured by time and disappeared from the physical world. It was as if they had never existedâ¦â
Round Ball explained to Wang Teng slowly. It seemed to be warning him of the dangers. âSpace is the same. It is mysterious. We can only grasp a section of it. There are too many unknowns out there. Since ancient times, many formidable martial warriors have been devoured by space.
âThe people who possessed the time talent were renowned characters too. But none of them escaped death. Thus, donât rely on your talent too much. Cultivation is still the key.â
Wang Teng nodded to express his agreement. He felt a little emotional.
His journey had been extremely smooth. He relied on picking attributes to raise his ability. Compared to those talents, he didnât have to care about such worries.
It felt amazing just thinking about it!
Cough. Wang Teng pulled his thoughts back and asked, âDoes anyone have chaos Force?â
â¦(â_â;)â¦
âWhat did you say?â Round Ball turned its head abruptly in astonishment. It didnât understand his question.
âErm, does anyone ever have the chaos Force?â Wang Teng repeated. He felt that Round Ball probably heard wrong.
âWhy are you asking this?â Round Ball asked him back in shock.
âNothing. Iâm just curious,â Wang Teng replied casually without changing his expression.
âCuriosity kills the cat!â Round Ball said earnestly. âI have never heard of anyone possessing the chaos Force. Even if there is, we might not be able to reach that level.
âBut trust me, chaos Force will probably never appear. Itâs even rarer than the time talent. Donât think too much.â
âWhy not?â Wang Teng was unwilling to give up.
âDo you really have to get to the bottom of it? Alright, let me tell you.â Round Ball snorted in anger. It sat down cross-legged in mid-air in front of Wang Teng so that it could look him in the eye. Placing its hand on its chin, it continued, âLetâs not talk about being born with this talent. I have never heard of something like that.
âAs for acquiring it during cultivation, thatâs unrealistic.
âYou should know that the chaos Force comprises all the elements I mentioned just now.â
âMetal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, dark, space, and time.â Wang Teng nodded. Then he frowned. âWhat about ice and poison? Arenât they counted?â
âIce and poison are mutated elements. They are not the basic elements.â Round Ball shook its head.
âPlease continue,â Wang Teng said.
âIf you want to form the chaos Force, you need to possess all nine basic elements as well as the space and time talent. The probability of possessing all these Forces and talents is one out of a billion out of a billion. Letâs talk about the dark Force. Besides dark apparitions, normal living creatures wonât be able to control it. Once you delve into the dark, you wonât be able to climb out of the abyss.
âYou also need to maintain a balance between all the Forces. There mustnât be a single mistake or you will explode and die. This is the only way you can merge all the elements⦠This is as difficult as possessing all the Force and talents. It might even be harder.â
It started to frown as it spoke. It didnât think that anyone could do it.
âYouâre thinking too much. I honestly admire you for having such bold and unrealistic thoughts.â Round Ball rolled its eyes at Wang Teng. Then, it turned and floated away. âAlright, Iâm not going to waste time on you anymore. I have to forge the battle armor. Have a good cultivation. Try to raise your ability as much as you can before our enemies come.â
It disappeared immediately after it finished speaking. It had merged into the main body of the spacecraft and could go anywhere it wanted. How convenient.
Impossible? Wang Teng muttered to himself. Suddenly, he saw a few attribute bubbles floating in the space in front of him.
He stared at them and released his spiritual power immediately, pulling the attribute bubbles over.
Time*1
Time*1
Time*1
â¦
There were only three bubbles and three points of attributes in total.
However, Wang Teng still widened his eyes in surprise. His eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets. He was flabbergasted.
Time attribute!
This was the time attribute that Round Ball said was even more mysterious than space!
