Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next day…
Lin Bai, who had ended his honeymoon trip, walked out of the Human Emperor Palace.
Then, the Human Emperor Battleship soared into the sky. This time, Lin Bai’s target was the Ancient Race Ruins 250,000 light-years away from Planet Vast Ocean.
Ever since Lin Bai searched for the Ancient Sage Essence, this mission naturally fell on Lin Hao’s shoulders.
After Lin Hao’s extensive investigation, he finally found an Ancient Race Ruins.
As the name suggested, the Ancient Race Ruins were once the place where the ancient race of the Starry Sky lived.
According to Lin Hao, those large-scale Starry Sky Ancient Races once had Ancient Saints. As the Ancient Races disappeared, all kinds of treasures would be left behind in the ruins.
Among them, the Ancient Saint Essence was also possible.
Inside the Human Emperor Battleship…
“Master, the coordinates have been set for you.”
Chandalos, who was dressed in a long blue dress, spoke in a gentle voice.
Lin Bai sat on the spacious and comfortable sofa and nodded.
Compared to Flying Bird, the Human Emperor Battleship’s facilities were more luxurious and sophisticated.
The advanced artificial intelligence that came with it could completely deal with the various situations that Human Emperor Battleship faced.
Now, Chandalos was no longer playing the role of a controller.
In the deep dark universe, the golden-red Human Emperor Battleship was like a dragon traveling at superluminal speed. On the other side of the universe…
“Buzz!”
Silver light fluctuated around Lin Hao’s body, and he instantly crossed thousands of light years.
When he appeared, he was already in a hole that was about a million light years wide.
In the distance, an old man in a black and white robe floated quietly in space like a meteorite.
Compared to the cold darkness around him, the old man seemed even more lonely.
“You’re here…
The black-and-white-robed old man had his back facing Lin Hao. His voice was hollow, but it carried a trace of ancient and mysterious aura.
Lin Hao looked at the old man with a complicated expression, his eyes revealing respect and emotion.
The person before him was Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint, an elder of the Ancient Ice Phoenix Clan, who had died 1.21 million years ago!
“Senior.”
Lin Hao sighed. At this moment, the black-and-white-robed old man had already turned around.
His eyes were slightly closed. His hair was white, but his beard and eyebrows were black.
Even though the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint had been dead for more than a million years, her corpse was still intact.
A hoarse and hollow voice rang out from the body of the Ice Phoenix Ancient
Saint, “Are the descendants of the Ancient Ice Phoenix Clan still alive?”
Lin Hao said in a deep voice, “Before Senior died, you projected your Time Law power and time memory fragments to the present million years later and successfully affected a trace of the future timeline. This junior admires your skill!”
Ever since Lin Hao found out about the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint’s identity, he found relevant records of the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint in the True Vast Expanse Cosmos.
This was the last Ancient Saint of the Ancient Ice Phoenix Clan.
For the continuation of his race and the future of the universe, he had planned for 500,000 years.
In the end, when he fell, he successfully fluctuated the timeline of the future millions of years later.
It was precisely because of the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint’s scheme that the Great Expansion Desolate Master was able to come to Earth.
The Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint’ was once an Ancient Saint Realm powerhouse and had long stood proudly at the peak of this universe.
However, to be able to influence the future millions of years after death, this ability made Lin Hao marvel in his heart.
The Time Law was the most powerful and top-notch law power in the universe.
As a top genius, Half-Saint Lin Hao had already mastered part of the Time
Law.
He could stop time around him temporarily and even reverse the target’s age back to childhood.
However, Lin Hao was far from being able to influence the timeline a million years later.
However, Lin Hao was puzzled.
He did not understand why Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint would do such a thing.
Was it to save the Ancient Ice Phoenix Clan?
Or to save the entire universe?
Regardless of which aspect it was, what did it have to do with him?
The other question was, why did it have to be a million years later?
The Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint’s corpse was still floating in the universe like a small meteorite.
“I don’t know who you are, but according to the Spacetime Chessboard, you must be related to my descendants.”
“You might have helped our descendants greatly. If you can reach this point, you must have the ability of a Half-Saint.”
The Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint had deduced this based on the spacetime laws he had mastered a million years ago.
Lin Hao did not interrupt and only quietly stared at the star magnate who had died a million years ago.
“Can you bring that descendant to meet me?”
Hearing this, Lin Hao came to a realization.
Even though Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint could affect the timeline millions of years later, he could not see what was happening directly. He could only speculate.
Lin Hao did not answer the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint’s question. Instead, he asked, “Senior, how did you do it?”
He wanted to know how Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint could affect the timeline millions of years later.
He also wanted to confirm if the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint truly had no ill intentions.
Even though it was just a corpse that had been dead for a million years.
However, it could affect the timeline. Even the smallest change could have a huge impact on the present.
If the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint still had some means to control it, or if there was something Lin Hao did not know about, it would be difficult to clean up the mess.
In reality, if not for the fact that this matter involved so many people, Lin Hao would not have even thought of looking for Ancient Sage Ice Phoenix.
After all, he was not sure if what he did would affect the timeline.
The power of time was extremely mysterious. To understand it, one might be able to learn a thing or two from a movie.
For example, in Truman’s world, Truman grew up in a ‘timeline’ set by the director.
At this moment, Lin Hao was probably like Truman.
If he went to find the Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint, it was very likely that he would destroy the ‘time chain’ of this world and destroy the current timeline.
ce Phoenix Ancient Saint’s voice from a million years ago continued, “Forget it.”
“Since you were able to find me, perhaps you have some understanding of time.”
“Simply put, you can imagine the timeline as a tree. Every branch and leaf is a factor that can affect the tree of time.”
“This tree grew from a tender sprout to a towering tree. No one knows how many leaves it will grow, nor does anyone know the texture of each leaf.” “However, we can make a rough guess based on the type of tree and infer when it will germinate and mature.”
“What we need to do is to implant the elements we desire into this sprout and let it bear fruit.”
“If it succeeds, then it succeeds. If it fails, then this tree will be destroyed.”
“Of course, even if it succeeds, there will be some unexpected things happening to the tree, such as its veins and the number of leaves.”
“Time cannot be completely controlled. Not even Ancient Saints can do it.”
“You who came from a million years later, do you understand?”
Lin Hao fell into endless shock, unable to extricate himself. The Ice Phoenix Ancient Saint’s words were concise and comprehensive. With his strength, he was naturally able to comprehend it in an instant.
However, it was precisely because he had comprehended it that he was even more shocked and terrified!
“In other words, the current world is no longer the timeline you observed back then. There have been some subtle changes in this world!”
Lin Hao nodded thoughtfully..
