Ye Xiao didn't say anything discouraging, nor did he ask what would you do if I couldn't come back or if I failed. For him, there would be no failure, and he would never allow this matter to fail.
Because he can't afford the consequences of failure.
After he finished speaking, he felt the soft cat sticking to him, and his heart became calm and gentle. Then the next moment, his body suddenly disappeared from where it was.
Lin Tantan was stunned for a moment, then screamed "Meow Meow" and jumped off the chair to look around, but he couldn't see anyone anywhere. Instead, the strong wind around him gradually died down, and the dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, revealing the moon again.
Lin Tan Tan knew he was gone, and she slowly stopped walking. Tears were about to fall from her big, yellow eyes. She meowed in disappointment, Ye Xiaowa...
Ye Xiao looked at her small and lonely figure in the night, his heart aching as if it was being rubbed. Thinking that he had made all the arrangements, he felt a little relieved. He hardened his heart and stopped looking at him, but looked towards the hazy front.
He didn't know where he was. Although he was looking at Lin Tantan on the ground from a bird's-eye view, he didn't feel that he was in the sky. It was more like he was in a... special and transcendent space. If he wanted, he should be able to see scenes from every corner of the world.
He didn't know why he thought so, but he was so sure of it.
Like now, he was cruel enough not to look at Tan Tan anymore. The scene in the area where Tan Tan was completely disappeared, leaving only white patches in all directions.
Ye Xiao had imagined all sorts of surprising scenes, so he remained very calm at this moment. He simply asked, "World rules? Did you bring me here?"
No one appeared, but after a moment, an inorganic, emotionless voice, seemingly hollow and ethereal, yet also grand and powerful, rang out: "Ye Xiao, among the creatures under my management, you are very good. You are the first person to evolve."
Ye Xiao was slightly taken aback, but not particularly surprised. The voice continued, "Because you are now fully evolved, I have been able to upgrade, so I can give you some preferential treatment and help you realize your wish."
Ye Xiao's eyes lit up slightly: "So what should I do next?"
The voice said, "Although I've upgraded, the rules of the world you're going to are only half a step higher, so I can't help you much. I can help you get there and then take you back, but I need to confirm one thing: are you going to bring back someone from that world?"
Ye Xiao felt that although the voice was emotionless, the question was very human. He said, "Yes."
"That's too difficult. I need to conserve my energy for this, so I can only send you there when the rules of that world are at their weakest."
Ye Xiao frowned slightly, at his most vulnerable moment... "The beginning of the apocalypse?"
"No, when the end of the world is about to end and the rules are about to take shape."
Ye Xiao: “…” That was the seventh year of the apocalypse.
He realized something and his face darkened a little.
"Remember, you cannot change anything, including the fate of living things and the course of history. Otherwise, everything will collapse, and you won't be able to come back."
Ye Xiao took a deep breath and looked at his body: "Can I live that long there?"
From the seventh year of the apocalypse to three hundred years after the apocalypse, that is a full three hundred years. To be honest, he really didn't expect it to be like this.
"That's up to you," the voice said coldly and mercilessly.
Ye Xiao was silent for a moment, then asked, "Then the time in this world..."
"Time will pass very slowly. The two worlds are not meant to be synchronized."
“How slow is time passing very slowly?”
The voice paused for a moment before answering: "No more than three years."
Ye Xiao clenched his fists. Three years was fine, but he'd been there for three hundred years. Suddenly faced with such a huge number, even someone as calm as him was a little shocked. But he remained unmoved and unfazed. He was wondering if his body could survive those three hundred years. And when he returned, would he be a gray-haired old man?
If they were still going to be separated, why would he bother? He loved talking, so he didn't want to leave her alone. They hadn't said it, but they both knew that if anything happened to either of them, the consequences would be shared. Neither of them would accept being left alone.
He looked at his hands. His body had been transformed. The poison in the Ning City base had transformed his body into an almost impenetrable barrier. The maximum level of superpowers also brought him huge changes. Tan Tan also said that powerful superpowers could make people live longer.
He was silent for a long time, and finally said, "I understand. Please take me there." In the end, he still didn't want to give up. He didn't believe that he could not defeat time.
"Very good." The voice sounded immediately afterwards. Although it was still so cold and emotionless, Ye Xiao felt that he heard a hint of satisfaction and joy.
The voice said, "Traveling between two worlds, taking someone from the other world, and completely changing the fate of someone so crucial to the rules of the world, comes at a price. These three hundred years are the price you need to pay, and also a test for you."
Ye Xiao calmed down instead: "Okay."
"In addition to this, that rule will give you another small test..." At this point, the voice suddenly stopped, as if it was forcibly interrupted by something. Ye Xiao frowned slightly, but he was no longer worried. Only the seriousness that he had at the beginning remained.
After a moment, the voice continued, "Okay, that's all I can say. Now, tear open the space in front of you."
Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand, and tore the space in front of him, revealing endless chaotic light and shadow, and then a force pushed him in.
Ye Xiao disappeared into this space, but the voice sounded again: "How did I break the rules? He awakened on his own, he wanted to do it himself, even the ability to tear space apart is his own, I just gave him some guidance and instructions." The voice was still as inorganic, but the tone was much lighter than when it was communicating with Ye Xiao just now, and it seemed to contain a hint of gloating. "He is a first-stage fully evolved person. He is qualified to talk to me and make demands of me. You can't deny me because you haven't cultivated a fully evolved person."
The voice stopped for a while, as if it was listening to someone saying something, and after a while it said again: "What do you mean by snatching people from you? That person was the one you didn't want, and you killed her yourself. You don't want her, but I still cherish her body." After she comes over and her soul and body merge, I believe it will soon have a second fully evolved person. The more such evolved people, the better, as it wants to continue upgrading.
There are also creatures that are about to become spirits. The more the better. The more it has, the easier it is to upgrade. It doesn't want to be like that half-finished product, neither up nor down, embarrassed and rigid, deprived of most of its thinking, and can only rigidly follow the rules. Even if the opportunity comes, it can't grasp it. Not only can it not grasp it, but it will also wipe it out. How sad that is.
The voice paused for a moment and then spoke again, this time with a hint of mockery in its tone: "Yes, I have to thank you. I am indebted to you. If her soul hadn't run to my world, there wouldn't have been so many changes, and I might not be where I am today. But this only shows that she is the greatest opportunity. You can't accept this opportunity, and you don't allow it to be given to other worlds? Moreover, her soul was not released by your kindness. She escaped. This is her opportunity, and it is also my opportunity." The voice finally stopped, and the space became completely quiet.
At this time, Ye Xiao had already arrived in another world.
I opened my eyes and stood still. What I saw was a devastated city. I could hear the howling of zombies in the distance, and the air was filled with a stale smell.
It's full of the taste of doomsday.
Ye Xiao was no stranger to this smell, but in the previous world, in contrast to such city ruins, there were also cities that had become quite bustling and prosperous, but here it was completely dead silent, as if there was no hope at all.
Ye Xiao looked down at his body. He was not wearing anything new. He did not prepare any weapons. He himself was his best weapon. He raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. Time stopped and the signal was shown as lost.
I don’t know what time it is now.
But since nothing can be changed and nothing can be done, and Tan Tan's birth is still nearly three hundred years away, Ye Xiao is not in a hurry at all. He thinks that from this moment on, he should think about taking good care of himself. If he can avoid worrying and working hard, he should rest peacefully and fully enter a state of health preservation.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile and took out a wallet. It was full of photos, photos of Tan in human form, photos of Tan in animal form, all of them were of her, some cute, some soft, some fierce, some grinning. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He was worried that these photos would delay his trip for a long time and would bring him some relief from missing her. He didn't expect that he had brought them. Not only would it delay his trip for a long time, but he would have to rely on these photos to get through the next three hundred years.
He let out a breath, smiled helplessly, put away his wallet properly, and prepared to find a safe place, but then he heard the sound of fighting. He immediately wanted to sense what was happening through the air, but stopped just as he was about to do so. Don't change anything, then don't do anything, and try not to use your abilities. Except for the necessary survival, pretend that you don't exist in this world at all.
He slowly walked towards the direction of the battle, not to do anything, but to see the people in this world.
Then he saw it. He had reached a high point. Below him lay a dense mass of corpses, stretching as far as the eye could see, as tiny and crowded as an ant colony. In the center lay a few surrounded figures. A helicopter hovered in the air, but its position was precarious, swaying in the wind.
The people on the helicopter were calling the people below to come up. Two people used their special abilities to hook the helicopter and jumped on, but at the same time, there were zombies with amazing jumping ability or able to release vines to attack the helicopter. Ye Xiao also saw zombies in the group that could fly for a short time, and there were zombie birds in the air that were eyeing him hungrily.
Although the situation was dangerous, it was possible to escape.
Ye Xiao thought so, but found that the last person surrounded by the zombies was reluctant to get on the helicopter and just let the helicopter go. He was a little surprised and looked at him intently. When he saw the man clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank.
