"This place …" Looking at everything around him, Wang Baole's eyes narrowed and shined brightly.
Right then, his own cultivation base was already extraordinary, and the scene before his eyes could be considered to be his own doing. That was why while his mind was clear, he knew very well that everything that was happening now had actually happened countless years ago, and it existed in the depths of his own memories.
To be more precise, it existed … in the memories of his original body. After all, compared to his original body, the Black Wood Nail's memories were like a long river, and he had only awakened at the end of this long river.
That was why the memories that belonged to his consciousness were only a drop in the ocean compared to his original body. However, as his cultivation level increased, he had the qualifications to trace back his ancient memories.
With the power of the Heaven Trampling Bridge, it made it a bit easier.
At this moment, what appeared before him was obviously the ancient memories that were infinitely close to the end. Wang Baole could feel that the Heaven Trampling Bridge's tracing back … had reached its limit here.
He couldn't trace back any further.
At the same time, Wang Baole, who had left the Stone Tablet Realm and stepped onto the Heaven Trampling Bridge, gained a more accurate understanding of the universe after his years on the Immortal Astral Continent.
Perhaps this universe had once had a name, but it had long since been forgotten. In terms of how it was addressed, it was simply called the Great Universe.
This Great Universe seemed to be infinitely vast, and the Immortal Astral Continent was only a small part of it. There was also the Origin Space Dao Kong, where the Celestial Emperor was.
At the same time, there were the homelands of the celestials and the Ancient Celestials, as well as the realms of many third step cultivators. Even though they looked like complete universes, they were all part of this Great Universe.
And this great cosmos wasn't without boundaries. Wang Baole had asked Wang Yiyi's father about this when he was at Wang Yiyi's house. He had also learned from some ancient books and his own senses that this great cosmos had its boundaries.
There were even other Great Cosmoses outside of this Great Cosmos.
"The universe we are in is like a leaf floating in a lake. Beyond the leaf … there is an even more majestic lake, and there are many … leaves. And at the edge of each leaf, there is a barrier that is nearly unbreakable."
These were the words that Father Wang had said to Wang Baole in his home.
They didn't talk much, but Wang Baole had a feeling that Father Wang … should have left this leaf and gone to the lake, or even other leaves.
"A barrier, huh …" Wang Baole raised his head as he pondered. He looked at the gigantic hole in the starry sky in the distance. It was clear that this place … was the boundary barrier of this universe.
That hole seemed to have been blasted open by some sort of power, either from the inside or the outside.
"Then why did this scene appear in the ancient memories I traced back to the original body …" Wang Baole narrowed his eyes.
"Could this hole be related to my main body? Or rather, was it caused by my main body? In that case … did my main body blast open the barrier from the inside of this Great Universe, or … did it blast its way in from the outside? " Having reached this point in his train of thought, Wang Baole found it impossible to remain calm. Waves of shock battered his mind, and his body flickered as he appeared next to the hole.
He sent his Divine Will out through the hole, but in the next moment, an indescribable sense of crisis exploded out. Wang Baole immediately fell back, a look of shock and confusion on his face.
Just now, he had the feeling that there was something incredibly dangerous outside of the hole. However, Wang Baole wasn't willing to leave just like that. After a moment of thought, his eyes filled with determination, and he waved his right hand out in front of him.
"Waning Moon!"
Considering the current level of Wang Baole's Cultivation base and Realm, the power of the Waning Moon magic was far greater than it had been in the past. Rumbling could be heard as a river of Time magically appeared, spreading out in all directions. Within the river of Time, countless images could be seen, all of which depicted the area he was in.
By borrowing the power of the Heaven Trampling Bridge, Wang Baole was able to trace back to the original body's ancient memories. However, the power of the Heaven Trampling Bridge had reached its limit. Theoretically speaking, it couldn't give Wang Baole any more power to trace the past. However, Wang Baole was no ordinary person. Using the power of the Waning Moon magic, he was able to trace the past back in time.
Compared to the power of the Heaven Trampling Bridge, this method of tracing the past back in time wasn't very effective. However, it was similar to walking a 300-meter path to the 999-meter mark. Although the final three meters weren't very long, they were extremely important.
Therefore, when the power of the Waning Moon reached its pinnacle, Wang Baole's image began to fade away, as if it couldn't withstand the power of the Waning Moon magic. Within the river of Time created by the Waning Moon magic, it was impossible to say how many years had passed, but suddenly … a different image appeared.
In that image, there was no hole in the area!
Wang Baole's image was now more than half blurry. However, when he saw the image, his expression flickered, and he focused his attention on it. In the blink of an eye, the world in front of him was completely replaced by that image.
In that image, the area where the hole had been was completely normal. However, in the next moment … ripples appeared, and cracks appeared. Shockingly, beams of red light shot out from those cracks. Before Wang Baole could get a clear look, a sound that seemed capable of rending Heaven and Earth could be heard coming from the cracks.
In the blink of an eye, the area filled with cracks collapsed, forming a gigantic hole. Countless pieces of debris flew out in all directions. Wang Baole was shocked to see a gigantic, crimson piece of wood crashing into the hole.
The gigantic piece of wood was so huge that the red light emanating from it illuminated the starry sky around it. It looked like blood …
In the next moment, as the rumbling intensified, the gigantic piece of wood entered the Multiverse through the hole and headed off into the void. As it did, it caused the Dao of the Multiverse to rumble. It was as if it wanted to fuse with the Dao and become one of them. As it moved off into the distance, the red light from the gigantic piece of wood dissipated rapidly. It began to turn transparent, as if it was about to disappear into the starry sky.
"It came from outside the Multiverse?!" Wang Baole's heart trembled violently. Suddenly, his eyes widened. They were filled with disbelief and even shock. With his current level of cultivation and mental fortitude, it would have been difficult for such emotions to appear. But … right now, as the giant tree completely entered the Great Cosmos and flew into the distance, as its full appearance was revealed and its translucency intensified, he was shocked and even trembling as he saw …
It was as if … there was a corpse inside the gigantic piece of wood!
The corpse was rapidly disintegrating. As the gigantic piece of wood entered the Dao and the starry sky, the corpse also entered the gigantic piece of wood.
The black piece of wood … was not a plank, nor was it a nail. Shockingly, it was ….
It was a coffin!
A coffin with a corpse in it!
A coffin with a mysterious corpse in it that had come from outside the Multiverse!
Wang Baole's mind was spinning, and the image in front of him vanished. When everything returned to normal, he was standing on the third bridge, not at the beginning, but at the end.
However, his expression was constantly changing, and his breathing was also incomparably hurried.
"I … am the will of the black piece of wood awakening? Or … is that corpse being reborn??"
