Time was never unique. The future of a node had infinite possibilities, and so did the past. Countless pasts were interspersed with this node.
Therefore, the past was infinite, and the future was infinite.
Achieving the Fifth Dimension was to grasp his own past and future, and everything was in his own hands.
The Fourth Dimension and the Fifth Dimension were not on the same level at all.
Standing in this scryer recording, Li Yue's expression did not change. Between his eyebrows, countless Daos and Truths intertwined, and chaotic light spots appeared. Then, they intertwined and merged into the scryer recording bit by bit.
It was not a simple merging.
Instead, it was a fusion on a deeper level.
This was the reflection of one's mind in the void, and it was an organic combination with this scryer recording space.
Using the power of the mind to communicate with the past and future, pulling them out from the river of time and merging them into one's present.
It was also at this moment that a mysterious concept flowed through Li Yue's body and into his surroundings.
"My past!"
"Come out!"
Li Yue roared.
Countless chaotic radiances emanated from his body. They were like beams of eternal divine light that bloomed among the stars in the universe.
It was an incomparably powerful Profound, an incomparably profound Intent Domain.
It was a mystery that transcended everything and existed only for himself.
"Boom!"
In an instant, his soul, mind, and mind were wiped.
He saw all kinds of things, he saw many things.
Countless pieces of information flowed into his mind. Strand after strand, they flowed endlessly into his mind.
This was the memory of his countless lifetimes, or rather, knowledge!
It was a powerful force.
The reason why Grand Heavenly Realm experts were stronger than those below the Grand Heavenly Realm was not only because of their strength, but also because of their experience, knowledge, and the future that belonged to them.
Knowledge was power.
Li Yue's eyes were empty, and information flashed through his pupils.
He saw through the past, saw through millions and millions of reincarnations.
He had truly reached the feeling of seeing through millions and millions of years with a single glance.
In his first life, he was a tree that sprouted from the ground from a seed, and then slowly grew. Regardless of wind or rain, he existed for decades until one day, when lightning struck his body and lit the tree on fire. Only then did this life end!
In his second life, one of his wild beasts, a lone wolf in the grasslands, lived a very short life in this life, dying in just a few months!
In his third life, he was a demon!
The fourth generation, the Dragon Race!
…
The memories and reincarnations of countless lifetimes, knowledge, understanding, comprehension, and so on all touched his heart, making him feel a change in himself at every moment. It was a qualitative change on a deeper level.
That was his heart, and also himself!
After a long time, Li Yue's eyes flashed and he came back to his senses.
"The precipitation of time, the carving of time!"
Li Yue moaned softly, but he did not stop moving.
Seeing the past and the future wasn't anything special. Only by severing all of these, or absorbing them, could one truly transcend.
"My past will become mine, and my future will fall into my hands!"
Boom!
Following his words, the entire scryer recording shook.
Rays of light flickered, and those were the rebirth of the past. At this moment, everything in the past was reversed, turning into a complicated light that entered Li Yue's body.
Endless light entered, immersing into Li Yue's heart, and then was absorbed, turning into his own strength.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, all the reincarnations of the past were absorbed by Li Yue, and everything became his own.
Every life in the past had been merged.
What was left now was the future.
In between his eyebrows, the chaotic light appeared again, filling this space, wanting to reflect everything in the future.
Using his heart to feel.
Li Yue emptied his heart. After this experience, he continued to feel everything in his future, striving to merge everything in his future.
Very soon.
Through his senses, streaks of light and shadows appeared in his mind. They were the future.
But …
"My future is incomplete?"
At this moment, Li Yue's eyes narrowed. In his senses, those rays of light appeared, but there was a break in the air.
It was as if it was forcibly cut off.
What was cut off wasn't just Li Yue's fate, but also the future and eternal hope.
How could an incomplete future be gathered, and how could one jump out of time?
There was no possibility!
As time passed, Li Yue's face became colder and colder. He stared at the broken light, but there was nothing he could do.
The past was complete, but the future was broken.
"Did I fail?"
Li Yue muttered to himself, "Or should I say, as expected?"
"But …"
However, Li Yue didn't say anything. That was because another figure had mysteriously appeared in this space at this moment.
Alsace!
Yes.
Alsace actually appeared here.
This was the river of time that belonged to Li Yue, but Alsace's figure appeared. This wasn't an illusion, but the real Alsace himself.
Li Yue could clearly feel this.
However, there was a difference.
"Why? Did you fail? "
Alsace walked towards Li Yue step by step, staring at him with a sneer.
"…"
Li Yue's expression didn't change, and he was still cold.
"Not talking? It's useless if you don't talk! "
Alsace shook his head, "It's impossible for you to succeed because you're not the real Li Yue. I, Alsace, am the real 'Li Yue'!"
"…"
Still silent, still cold.
"Hehe, are you confused? If you didn't try to break through and awaken me, would I still be in a deep slumber? "
"Let me explain it to you properly!"
Alsace smiled coldly, and spoke slowly. He didn't say a word, but his eyes were fixed on Li Yue's pupils, not letting go of a single detail.
"Everything has been planned from the very beginning!"
"To achieve the fifth dimension, one needs to go through calamities and tribulations. Only after overcoming the final tribulation can one be completely sublimated and become a fifth dimensional life form! But do you know, the real Li Yue, or should I say, me, after I descended into this world, I understood one thing.
"I'm invincible!"
"Therefore, in this world, there's no one and nothing that can become my ultimate fear, my final whetstone!"
"Only myself!"
"From the day I descended, I understood this principle. Therefore, I set this up long ago! "
"This universe restricts me. Therefore, in order to break through, I need a fifth dimensional universe, a powerful whetstone, and a body that can adapt to this universe."
"Therefore, I created Alsace. This body contains the genes of a fifth dimensional true dragon, myself, and Death God Karsus. Therefore, it has the potential to sublimate into the fifth dimension and has the ability to assimilate into this world. At the same time, it can also perfectly carry my soul."
"From the very beginning, the real me had separated my soul from my origin and fused it into this body that I had created. However, my origin soul had always been in a deep slumber, and this body gave birth to a will of its own. This is the later Alsace. As for why his strength increased so quickly, it was because my origin soul was modifying this body, providing him with energy. It was laughable that he thought that everything was bestowed by you. "
"As for you, Li Yue, you are not the real 'Li Yue'. I am. You are just an obsession I left behind, an obsession to ascend to the fifth dimension. "
"Look at yourself. Other than ascending to the fifth dimension, what else do you have? Nothing, nothing at all. Because you are an obsession I left behind, a chess piece to clear all obstacles for me. You are not me, and your life is not complete. Therefore, you are destined to not succeed in ascending to the fifth dimension. "
"Do you understand now?"
"I am the real 'Li Yue'. You are just my whetstone, my obsession!"
"Now, let me take back everything that originally belonged to me!"
Alsace, no, the 'real Li Yue' said and walked towards Li Yue step by step. (Let's just use Alsace. Otherwise, it would be too tongue-twisting.)
"What a beautiful theory!"
Li Yue looked at Alsace and nodded indifferently.
"I am your obsession, your whetstone. You are the real mastermind behind all this, right?"
"That's right!" Alsace sneered.
"What a perfect theory. What a pity …"
Li Yue's expression did not change. What's a pity? He did not finish his words because Alsace had already arrived in front of him.
