Void gap, Traveler Square.
One after another figures walked out of the newly opened portal in the square. The man in the lead was dressed in a green shirt and had a handsome face. There was a faint silver light flashing in his two dark eyes. It was Lin Zhongtian, the lord of the void gap.
Three days have passed since the founding of the Self-Immolating Celestial Immortal Sect.
Ye Fan broke through the four extremes, broke the curse, and with the equipment given to him by the alliance members, he swept across the young geniuses of the major holy lands and completely established himself as the number one of the younger generation.
Since then, the Burning Heaven Immortal Sect has officially established a firm foothold in the world of Shrouding Heaven.
Lin Zhongtian and many alliance members left that world one after another. Only a few people such as Li Yun and Bai Lang stayed there. Some wanted to comprehend the great Dao through the rules of heaven and earth of Zhantian, while others simply stayed to have some fun.
Lin Zhongtian naturally did not choose to stay, because he was only interested in the great rules of the two worlds.
One is the Panlong created by Hongmeng, and the other is the world of shelter for the supreme being.
The Panlong world has his divine incarnation and Hongmeng himself to help look after it, so there is no need to pay too much attention.
As for the shelter world, Lin Zhongtian's immortal clone has been staying on Earth.
During this period, the immortal clone tried to comprehend the rules of the earth and the universe, and then he was surprised to find that this world actually accepted the immortal cultivation system he brought and evolved an incomplete heavenly way on its own.
But unlike the Heavenly Dao in the world of immortal cultivation, the incomplete Heavenly Dao in this world is more like an abnormal containment object.
The so-called rules of the great way that are realized from the incomplete way of heaven are not the true truth of the way of immortality. Instead, they are more like abnormal effects disguised as magical powers.
With the status of the Lord of Void Gaps, Lin Zhongtian easily comprehended various "magical powers" from the new Heavenly Dao.
Among them, most of the magical powers are not effective in other universes.
But some magical powers are more special and have universal application in all the heavens and worlds.
Among these magical powers, the one that surprised Lin Zhongtian the most was an unparalleled magical power called [Uniting the body with the Tao].
In Lin Zhongtian's perception, the depth of information contained in this magical power even surpassed the new Heavenly Dao itself.
Lin Zhongtian suspected that the magical power of [Using the Body to Be in Harmony with the Tao] might be one of the ways to obtain the so-called supreme power of rules.
Considering the possible dangers of merging one's body with the Tao, Lin Zhongtian did not rashly try it in the shelter world.
However, in order to explore the secrets of this world, he still used the long river of time to take a peek at the future timeline.
Then he discovered that in a certain future, a Chinese Taoist discovered the Way of Heaven, and relying on the magical powers he comprehended from the Way of Heaven, he lived a long life of eight hundred years. In the end, he became one with the Way and completely completed the incomplete Way of Heaven.
Since then, the Chinese Taoist priest has taken over the heaven and earth on behalf of the Heaven, leading the Earth on the path of spiritual revival.
During this process, all members of the Time Travelers' Alliance were expelled, and even strong men like Bai Lang and Yamu were exiled to the Void Maze.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Zhongtian’s figure never appeared from beginning to end.
This is because the status of the Lord of the Void Gap is too heavy. When Lin Zhongtian was peeping into the future from the past, the long river of time could not produce a second Lord of the Void Gap of the same status.
Lin Zhongtian quietly peeked into the possibilities of the future.
While observing the Way of Heaven, Lin Zhongtian discovered that those so-called great truths were actually root information engraved in the universe.
To explain it in the simplest terms, the universe has a fundamental control console. As long as you can find that console and type in instructions and codes in it, you can tamper with the rules of the universe at will.
Moreover, the rules that are tampered with in this way are not subject to any restrictions or constraints.
No matter how outrageous the code you write, the universe will respond faithfully.
After discovering this, Lin Zhongtian's immortal clone felt a long-lost shock.
There is no doubt that this supreme being who created the world of sheltered objects has an understanding and application of the rules that far surpasses all the creators and gods that Lin Zhongtian had encountered before.
His control over power has risen from rules to information, which is even better than Hongmeng of the Panlong world.
Lin Zhongtian felt a long-lost excitement about this discovery, but he did not remember to try it. Instead, he first found Li Yun, dealt with the affairs of the Zhutian world, and then returned to the void gap, preparing to try to merge his body with the Tao.
…
…
With a flash of silver light, Lin Zhongtian's main clone arrived in the boundless sea of gray fog.
He sat cross-legged in the center of the sea of fog with his eyes closed, and activated the magical power that his immortal clone had comprehended - [To unite the body with the Tao].
In an instant, the main clone's field of vision rose layer by layer, as if it had ascended from the three-dimensional world to the four-dimensional world. Like God, it overlooked every inch of the entire virtual space gap.
This perspective may be a very novel experience for others.
But for Lin Zhongtian, it was an ordinary scene that he had long been accustomed to.
Because this is the daily life of his subjective consciousness every moment.
...Sure enough, the Heavenly Dao in the void is his subjective consciousness!
However, his subjective consciousness's grasp of the void gap was still somewhat superficial, and he did not grasp some deeper things.
Now, thanks to the world of shelter, Lin Zhongtian feels that he can transcend the concepts of time and space and get a glimpse of the "information" believed by the supreme being in the world of shelter.
Afterwards, Lin Zhongtian floated quietly in the gray sea of fog.
Lines of power wrapped around his body and enveloped the surrounding gray fog, separating him from the long river of time and making time lose its meaning in this temporarily opened space.
Just like that, I don’t know how much time has passed, it could be a moment, or it could be billions of years.
Finally, Lin Zhongtian opened his eyes.
He looked ahead thoughtfully, and with an idea in his mind, gray fog suddenly gathered from all directions and condensed into the shape of a fly swatter in front of Lin Zhongtian.
In an instant, golden light burst out from the fly swatter, and an ancient aura spread out, which seemed to contain great power.
Seeing this scene, Lin Zhongtian's expression became strange.
He waved his hand to grab the fly swatter, grabbed the pole and swatted it forward.
"boom!!"
A deafening roar was heard, and Lin Zhongtian shattered the gray fog sea with one blow, tearing apart layers of space, leaving countless densely packed golden cracks that spread for hundreds of miles in the void in front of him.
"It's really good..."
Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but complain.
He did not use any strength when he swatted the fly swatter. He simply relied on the fly swatter itself to easily shatter the space.
This is because he gave the fly swatter a whole new message, describing it as the oldest artifact in the universe, whose shape alone possesses immense power.
And the void actually responded to his request, making the fly swatter a sacred and ancient symbol.
This is undoubtedly an extremely outrageous thing.
But at an information level, it's not impossible.
Lin Zhongtian waved his hand to disperse the fly swatter, and then raised his mind to the supreme 'control console' again.
The so-called console is just a term that is easier to understand.
In reality, it is a place of information that exists at the root of the void.
Its existence itself is a kind of information, and only the same information can perceive it.
Lin Zhongtian discovered that his main consciousness itself had the management authority of the console, but he had never found the console before, so naturally he didn't know how to use it.
Now, in the process of the main clone performing [Body in Harmony with the Dao], Lin Zhongtian's main consciousness, with the help of the clone's power, was finally able to get a glimpse of the source of the information.
There, Lin Zhongtian made some small attempts.
The fly swatter that had great power just now was just a trial run for him.
Now that the power of information has been confirmed, Lin Zhongtian began to test his control over information in the void.
Through this experiment, he discovered that the subjective consciousness was quite lacking in means of operating at the information level.
This lack does not mean that there are too few means, but that the information level is not deep enough.
To give the simplest example, in the material universe, the supreme being can rely on information to create something out of nothing, and even ignore the most basic law of conservation of energy, allowing matter and energy to increase unconditionally and unlimitedly.
But Lin Zhongtian can't do that, his manipulation of information is still superficial.
Lin Zhongtian can operate a setting like "tampering with the fly swatter into a divine weapon that is in harmony with Taoism".
But if it involves some root information, such as the law of conservation of energy, or simply changing the setting of the clone to infinite energy, Lin Zhongtian cannot do this level of tampering.
Even so, Lin Zhongtian was still extremely happy about the existence of the 'Console'.
He has already decided that the subjective consciousness will follow the information path of this supreme being in the future!
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Zhongtian's mind suddenly withdrew from the attempt to tamper with the information.
He suddenly realized a problem. Although there were restrictions on his tampering with information, there was definitely no problem in searching for and perceiving information.
What if he added the tags of traveler and source universe when searching?
...Can we take this opportunity to find the existence of the source universe?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian's heart moved, and he began to search for information about the time traveler and the source universe in the console.
In an instant, dense information appeared before his eyes.
Lin Zhongtian started with the latest information and read through it patiently.
But unfortunately, among the massive amount of information stored in the gaps in the virtual space, the vast majority is information related to the alliance members, and only a small part is new travelers who have not yet been found by the alliance.
As for the source universe itself, Lin Zhongtian has searched it till now but still hasn't found any trace of it.
...Is it really that hard to find?
Lin Zhongtian frowned, feeling puzzled.
After a little hesitation, he decided to explore the information avenue first, and then try to find his hometown after his subjective consciousness had made further progress in information.
Therefore, he picked out a very special piece of information from this huge amount of information.
That was a traveler from the source universe who had traveled to the Three Kingdoms world. Because the alliance members arrived too late, the traveler died of old age and his soul disappeared after death.
Now, with the help of Information Avenue, Lin Zhongtian finally found the trace of that unlucky guy.
After his death, his soul traveled again and entered another world that was not connected to the void gap.
Lin Zhongtian's mind moved, and following the information from the unknown, he extended his consciousness to the world that had not yet been discovered by the alliance.
