Under the scorching sun, a sand turtle scurries swiftly across the desert.

The rolling sand dunes outline smooth, gentle lines, just like the undulating waves on the sea.

The sand turtle's powerful limbs, as large as palm fans, moved swiftly through the sea of ​​sand, as if the sand itself were making way for it.

The three-story building on the sand turtle's back was exposed to the scorching sun, and the white walls seemed about to melt.

The rooftop outdoor swimming pool was empty because it was too hot, and the passengers were all hiding indoors to cool off.

Suddenly, a spatial rift opened above the swimming pool, and a person walked out of it.

As a result, he lost his footing and fell into the pool.

A little white rabbit was perched on the person's head, and the rabbit's eyes looked like a spinning galaxy.

The combination of a human and a rabbit is Xin Sui and the ethereal beast.

Xin Sui looked around. This time, he shouldn't have made a mistake, right?

A long-lost electronic voice rang in her mind:

[Host, where have you been! I can't find you anywhere!]

The system is still bound to its host, but it just can't find her. It's been quite frustrated lately.

The system's voice felt very familiar to Xin Sui, and it also confirmed to her that she had truly returned this time.

Instead of being taken to another time and space by Xiaobai.

"You might not believe it, but I spent 14 years in the apocalypse, and then I went to another world's apocalypse for 277 years..."

"After traveling through different times and spaces several times, I have finally returned here."

[The apocalypse 14 years ago? The apocalypse 277 years ago in another world? Tell me in detail what happened.]

The sun was too strong overhead, especially with the fluffy white kitten perched on her head.

Xin Sui broke out in a sweat in no time, so he took Xiao Bai into the Turtle Pearl Space.

He collapsed into the beanbag chair and then began to explain to the system.

However, before recounting her experience, she asked the system a question.

Has the world changed since then?

[Yes, just now, Xuan Tu found another member of the Earth Core Clan and killed him.]

Xin Sui: "...I'm not referring to that kind of change, but rather, overall, is there anything different from before? For example, has Xuan Tu embarked on a completely different path from before?"

[Host, what exactly are you trying to say?]

The system was a little confused by her question.

"Okay, after I finish telling you my story, you'll probably understand what I mean."

"Didn't I chase Xuan Tu into the spatial black hole before? But I couldn't catch up and got stuck inside."

"Later, I encountered the ethereal beast, which is the little white rabbit in my arms. I coaxed it to take me out—"

[Yes, I know all that, you don't need to repeat it. The key question is, what happened after you got out? How did you disappear?]

[I expended a great deal of energy searching the entire world, but I couldn't find you.]

Xin Sui: "That's because after I went out, I arrived in the 14th year of the apocalypse."

"We're not even in the same time and space, how could you possibly find me?"

system:[!]

"...I saw Xuan Tu when he was little. He was only three years old, with round, bright eyes like a cat's pupils, and a round face that was so cute to pinch—"

[Host, can you skip the details and get to the point?]

The cuteness of human babies is something that one system simply cannot grasp.

Xin Sui: "..."

"The point is, I figured since I'm already here, I probably won't be able to leave anytime soon, so I decided to stay with Xuanwei and Xiaoguang and change their situation."

"The past has changed, and the future will naturally change as well."

[Host, are you stupid? How can the past possibly be changed?]

Xin Sui sighed, "I only understood this later."

If the world is likened to a tree, then the apocalyptic world she initially transmigrated to is the trunk of that tree.

When she returned to 14 years after the apocalypse, believing that the changes she made could influence the future, a new parallel world actually emerged from that point in time.

It's like the World Tree growing a new branch at the point in time "14 years into the apocalypse".

This new branch overlaps with the main trunk to some extent, but their future development trends are quite different, and the two are unlikely to intersect again.

The past of the main world will remain the same as the future, and will not change because of her time travel.

Because the past she altered belongs to a parallel world that was derived from it, rather than the main world.

In the main world, Xuan Tu remains a major villain.

Therefore, the system says the past cannot be changed.

Xin Sui: "I didn't realize this at the time, so when I encountered Xiaobai again in the space black hole, I asked it to send me to the end of the world in 277."

"After the results came out, I found that I had arrived in the year 277 of a parallel world, which is a parallel world derived from the time point of the apocalypse 14 years ago."

"In this parallel world, there is no system like you, no villain Xuan Tu, but a great president named Xuan Guang who unifies the entire apocalypse and whose status is comparable to that of a god."

[hiss]

The system emitted a single exclamation.

"You must be surprised too, right? When I saw Xuan Guang surrounded by everyone, I felt both familiar and unfamiliar."

[Did you manage to speak to him? What was his reaction?]

"No, I didn't go forward. I stayed in that world for a while, but I didn't do anything."

"Until I encountered Xiaobai again, I had it send me back to the black hole in the space where I first met.
