Chapter 121
"Principal Liu, what exactly do you mean by what you're telling me? What will happen if there are more parallel worlds and the world becomes unstable?"
"Many, many things will happen, some of which are completely unpredictable, what we commonly call accidents. These things will affect our world and our normal lives. Although our world has the ability to connect with other worlds and possesses the power of thought, it doesn't mean we've transcended this dimension. We are still reptiles living in a three-dimensional space, with the mind of living beings. To keep the Tower of All Heavens stable, so that everyone can cultivate without worrying about the collapse of our world caused by their own transmigrations, we need someone to help us correct those disordered worlds."
"What should we do?" Upon hearing this, Guan Wen knew that the important part of the day was about to begin. Bald Liu must have called him here for this very reason.
"It's very simple. By entering those disordered worlds through the Tower of All Heavens, we can repair the timelines there. Once the timelines are repaired, those duplicated timelines can be merged into other parallel worlds. In other words, two timelines that originally made different choices will make the same choice due to some kind of change, and thus they will become the same universe, and the split worlds will disappear."
What benefit would I get from doing this?
"Hahaha," upon hearing Guan Wen's words, Bald Liu, with a cigar in his mouth, stood up and laughed heartily. He walked up to Guan Wen, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Young man, you are indeed a very smart fellow. There are many benefits you can gain from this. The first is that you can live in a safe and peaceful world without worrying about losing everything at any time due to the chaotic parallel universe. You should know that if the universe collapses, what you lose is not only the present and the future, but also the past."
"The traces you have left behind, the things you have left behind, and all your memories will turn into nothingness and become an unknown existence in the singularity!"
“Principal Liu, let’s get straight to the point. To be honest, if it’s for these empty words, I don’t think I have any reason to give up my current cultivation to repair those chaotic worlds.”
"Wait, I haven't finished yet. This is just one of the benefits. The second benefit is that you will be able to obtain the reward of the origin of the Tower of All Heavens!"
"The origin of the Tower of All Heavens?" Guan Wen was taken aback upon hearing this. The other party had said that the Tower of All Heavens was a four-dimensional machine, a machine that could manipulate time. Why was the origin of the Tower of All Heavens being mentioned now? What was the connection between these two things?
"Principal Liu, what does this mean? What is the origin of the Tower of All Heavens?"
"I said the Tower of All Heavens is a time machine, but do you think this time machine is just something you can move around at will by pressing a button?"
“Every machine has its own inherent structure. For example, a steam engine needs coal and water as its circulating substances, an internal combustion engine needs oil, and this time machine needs its own source.”
"The origin is not a kind of consumable matter. It is a four-dimensional matter that transcends the dimensions we can imagine. These things are what we have all worked hard to obtain. When we put them into the Tower of All Heavens, the Tower of All Heavens can operate on its own. This operation is not a kind of consumption in the traditional sense that ordinary people imagine. It is more like a kind of accumulation."
"This kind of gathering can be compared to combustion. When you ignite a combustible, the burning behavior of the flame will spread to other places and ignite all combustibles."
"The Tower of Trials is similar to this. The more worlds you travel through and the more parallel universes you create, the more origins it gathers, just like a burning flame becomes hotter and wider."
"This source contains immeasurable benefits. Existing research shows that almost everyone can obtain an extraordinary ability from this source."
“Extraordinary abilities…” Guan Wen’s eyes flickered upon hearing this.
"That's right, we call it time manipulation."
"What kind of time-related ability? Was it granted by the Tower of All Heavens?"
"Of course not, of course not. The four-dimensional world is vast and mysterious. Some people are indeed born with time-related abilities, but it has nothing to do with the Tower of All Heavens. The Tower of All Heavens can grant time-related abilities to some people who are not born with them."
"These two things don't conflict with each other, you know what I mean?"
Guan Wen nodded slowly. Bald Liu's meaning was easy to understand. Time ability was just the Time Ability Tower, merely a way to obtain time ability. Controlling time was a strange ability for them, one they couldn't understand, and it was quite rare because they were three-dimensional beings. Controlling time in a four-dimensional world was obviously not a rare ability; it was just an ordinary activity.
Of course, if intelligent beings exist in that world, such activities would be commonplace and no one would pay any attention to them.
Just like how we flip through books every day, move small pieces of furniture around, pick up a toothbrush or a pen casually, or spread ketchup on bread.
These things are incredibly wondrous and unbelievable to creatures in the two-dimensional world, but to people in the three-dimensional world, they are just everyday occurrences, nothing special, and they don't even care about them.
The same applies to the four-dimensional world compared to the three-dimensional world.
The benefit of the Tower of All Heavens is that it allows an ordinary person who is born without any connection to the four-dimensional world to gain time-related abilities.
