Chapter 690 - Entering The Wormhole
In the middle of the air, Asabanor and Xiao Lin stared at each other, both of them trying to see how sincere the other party was. Asabanor was the first to avert his gaze because he could not see anything from Xiao Lin's eyes, and he was worried that Xiao Lin would see through his lies.
"Do you not dare?" Xiao Lin smiled mockingly, pressing on.
"Fine. I have always wanted to know what the river of time and space looks like anyway!" Asabanor seemed to be finding a reason for himself, so it did not seem like it had been forced by Xiao Lin's threats. However, he was still only mocked by Xiao Lin.
"Xiao Lin! No!"
"The wormhole is like an endless sea. The moment you enter, you'll forever be lost inside!"
"Because of that, you can't enter it!"
"You absolutely cannot go in!"
Gu Xiaoyue and the others had naturally heard Xiao Lin and Asabanor's conversation, and they were incredibly anxious. They hurriedly shouted out their objections. Even if they did not understand time and space, they had been sternly told repeatedly whenever they went between Earth and the New World that space and time were ever changing, and was like an endless sea. If someone fell in, they would never be able to come back.
Even more terrifyingly, those who entered the river of time and space never really died. In fact, death would be considered an escape. They would not be able to die, and would continue to be lost in space and time, bearing an unending sentence. That was something even more terrifying than death.
Xiao Lin sighed. He obviously understood that logic because of his intelligence and his experience, but it was already something he no longer cared about. The moment Myth ended, his body would be unable to bear the power inside and he would die anyway.
He forced himself to ignore Gu Xiaoyue and the others, worried that he would falter, and also worrying that he would use up valuable time if he continued. So, Xiao Lin no longer said anything, and the tip of his feet stepped on the empty space. He suddenly moved next to Asabanor, and he then reached out and lightly slapped the space in front of Asabanor.
The sudden white light almost caused Asabanor to shout in fear, but this time, Xiao Lin's goal was not him, but the spatial shield in front of him. Suddenly, the shield completely disappeared.
Asabanor looked at Xiao Lin deeply. He obviously knew that the shield was not omnipotent, and a strong enough amount of energy would be able to break the distortion of space. He knew as well that Xiao Lin definitely had that amount of energy. What really shocked him was that Xiao Lin had actually already advanced his control of the power to an unimaginable level!
Asabanor suddenly celebrated in his heart. Thankfully, Xiao Lin was about to die very soon. Otherwise, if Xiao Lin had been given enough time to grow, that man might really have become the first person to fully control the power of law since the creator of the power. He was suddenly filled with a bit of horror. Thankfully, that would not happen!
Xiao Lin was a bit confused by the change in Asabanor's expression, but he did not pay it any mind. Before Myth disappeared, with his absolute power, he was not afraid that Asabanor would pull some tricks. He pulled Asabanor's collar. Even though Asabanor was a spirit, if he condensed energy in his palms, he could touch spiritual power.
"Yes, that's much more convenient.!" Xiao Lin was satisfied with his ability to control that energy, and then he dragged Asabanor and flew toward the blood moon.
Asabanor was immediately infuriated, and his entire body trembled from the rage. The position he was in was reminiscent of that of a dog. He was the high priest, but he was actually being dragged around like a dog; the humiliation he was suffering was even worse than death.
However, Asabanor did not dare to voice his anger, as those with absolute power could do whatever they wanted. He suppressed his anger, and coldly smiled. He tried to shift the topic by saying, "Do you need me to tell you about the corridor of space and time? Entering with your body is completely different from using the spatial carriage."
Xiao Lin let out a cold snort; that man even knew about the spatial carriage. It seemed like the new dean had revealed a lot of information. He had basically completely revealed all of Earth's secrets. Even though he was incredibly angered, he could not help but be curious. He wondered what Asabanor had given in exchange to move the new dean so much.
Asabanor was once again embarrassed and angered by being ignored. He decided to just shut up. He wanted to see Xiao Lin make a joke of himself. The river of time, even though he had never entered it before, he felt like he had researched it more than anyone else, including anyone from Earth.
Xiao Lin's focus was not on Asabanor at that moment. He was completely inexperienced with the situation. Even though Lilith and himself had entered the blood moon in New Washington, it was different this time. The last time, they had only gone into an isolated space that was within the New World's moon, where the difficulty was much lower.
This time, it was different; it was using the power of the moon to forcibly tear open space and allow him to enter the corridor of time. Even though the colonists were no strangers to that corridor, because they would always need to go through it to travel between the New World and Earth, it was like Asabanor had said -- it was completely different.
The spatial carriage allowed them to travel back and forth from two fixed coordinates. The coordinates were like a track that allowed the carriage to move with a path. If they entered with just their physical bodies, the coordinates would be impossible to find because that would be like finding a needle in the middle of the ocean.
Of course, they were not actually entering the moon. Even if Xiao Lin knew how to turn his power into a shield, he did not know if he could directly enter outer space. Even though he had some excitement at the thought, it was not the time to do so. He merely dragged Asabanor's spirit and slowly flew further into the sky.
When they were ten thousand meters above the ground, the air began to get thinner and thinner. Thanks to the shield, Xiao Lin was not affected too much, and in the sky, they were already covered in the light of the blood moon. It enveloped them like a fog, and it was as if they were dreaming. Being covered in the fog, he could vaguely see a golden light. That was the entrance of space and time. Asabanor had used an immense amount of power to rip open that opening.
"You should think about it. Once you enter, you'll never be able to return!" Asabanor smiled coldly.
Xiao Lin glanced at him, his intuition telling him that the cunning high priest would definitely not have admitted defeat so easily. Bringing him into the river of time, Asabanor definitely did not have any good intentions.. However, he had no other choice, so he coldly snorted, "You should worry about yourself!" After that, he increased his speed, and with a flash, he disappeared into the golden entrance.
