Zhou Li walked slowly forward. The surrounding environment gradually became turbid, the smell of blood filled the air, and magma spewed out from the cracks in the ground.
After passing through a curtain of light, the scene changed drastically, with blooming flowers blooming, and the fragrance of flowers overflowed in the sea of flowers.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and white clouds were floating. Under the petals of a huge manjushuahua flower, a blood-black coffee table was placed, and the tea in the teacup was still steaming.
I saw a vague figure sitting cross-legged opposite, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
Zhou Li pulled up the chair and sat down, drained the tea in the cup, looked at the mysterious man in front of him with the body of a snake and asked curiously:
"Excuse me, who are you? Why bother looking for me?"
The mysterious man with a body and a snake's tail did not answer. After drinking the tea in the cup, he pointed his left hand between Zhou Li's eyebrows, and a blood-red light went straight into his forehead.
Great forgetfulness!
Zhou Li closed his eyes subconsciously and carefully felt the information in the light. The name and usage of this technique suddenly came to his mind.
The Great Oblivion Technique is divided into three levels.
The first level can clear the memory of certain things in other people's souls. This is forgetfulness that goes directly to the origin of the self. No means can awaken forgotten memories.
Even a powerful person like Azathoth can only restore his memory from the side by reversing the future, peeling off relevant plots from the fragments of time and space, and stuffing them into the soul of the person whose memory has been erased.
The second level can modify the memories of everyone involved in a certain matter and rationalize the disappearance of the matter so that others will not notice anything wrong.
The third level represents the information law of the universe, which is modified directly from the source of the information, and forcibly removes someone or something. No one can change the matter anymore, as if it had never happened.
After Zhou Li finished digesting the amnesia, the mysterious man with the body of a snake and a tail said: "I thought about saying that I am Taiyi of the Eastern Emperor, but I know that I can't deceive you."
"You already know who I am from the moment you come to this micro-space and see the manjus and sandals all over the place."
"Zhou Li."
Zhou Li nodded after listening. As long as his mind was clear, he could make a rough guess by looking at this unique sea of flowers.
Just listen to Zhou Li ask: "So what do you want from me? Future Zhou Li, future me?"
"If it's nothing serious, I don't believe you would go to find me at such a high cost."
After hearing this, Future Zhou Li smiled softly and explained: "The future and the past are not unique, not even the universe is unique."
"You are wrong in one thing. I did not come here from the future, but from another world."
"Since I succeeded, it means you have succeeded too, and my trip was not in vain."
Zhou Li was confused when he heard this, but hearing him say that the world was not the only one in the universe, this aroused his curiosity.
In the future, Zhou Li looked at Zhou Li's slightly confused eyes, and the space above the tea table suddenly turned into chaos, and then he explained with a smile:
"Time, space, destiny, matter, quality, light and darkness, speed... these things form a world of the lowest order."
"These worlds collide with each other and devour each other to form a higher-order world. The higher-order world has more life, death, emotions, energy... than the lower-order world. These are very strange and more active rules."
"These active rules are always affecting the changes in the world, and are beginning to continuously derive parallel worlds."
"Perhaps a bug fell from a branch to the ground and was eaten by a passing frog instead of a bird. These changes in choices will lead to many parallel universes."
At the same time, the chaos on the tea table continued to demonstrate with Zhou Li's words in the future.
Looking at this vast scene, Zhou Li suddenly interrupted: "Such an inconspicuous thing can also create parallel universes? Then how many parallel universes are there in the world I am in now?"
Future Zhou Li was slightly startled, knocked on the tea table and said: "Listen to me first, you will know later."
"At this point, this world can only be said to have more parallel universes, and it is far from being called a multiverse."
"The high-order world has been constantly splitting into parallel universes, and at the same time, it is constantly devouring other high-order worlds, assimilating it with the parallel world in which it was born."
"This process is very long, and the high-order worlds required are extremely complicated. So far, no high-order world has been promoted to the multiverse in this way."
"At present, all the multiverses in the world are forcibly promoted by the birth of multi-dominance. However, multi-dominance is not something that is expected. If you want to become a multi-dominion..."
At this time, Future Zhou Li coughed twice and said apologetically:
"Sorry, I got a little off topic."
"Going back to the topic, the low-order world, the high-order world, and the multiverse are the basic units that make up the universe."
"In all the worlds, there are infinite lengths, infinite heights, infinite widths, infinite time, infinite matter, infinite worlds... even the ordinary creation gods master infinite rules. It can be said that
The concept of infinity has become obsolete in all the worlds."
"I once thought that the heavens and worlds were the real and unique one, but now I understand that the heavens and worlds are still not the only one. The infinite heavens and worlds are like one side of a multi-faceted Rubik's Cube. Due to certain rules, they can never be combined with other worlds.
Meet face to face."
Zhou Li saw that Future Zhou Li was silent and took the opportunity to ask: "If we can never be together, how did you get here?"
Zhou Li will organize the language in the future:
"I devoured all the concepts about Zhou Li in my universe and forcibly promoted myself to be the only one in the universe, so that even the word "Zhou Li" no longer existed in the universe where I was."
"After promoting myself to be the only one in the universe, I used some kind of ritual in the bottomless abyss to tear apart the rules at the cost of my existence and send my memory to other universes."
"You are the only one who has passed here. This means that you will reach a height beyond my reach, completely transcend, and break free from the constraints of chaos."
"The reason why I chose to go to other heavens and realms at such a high cost is just for an elusive answer."
The more Zhou Li listened, the more confused he became: "What's the answer?"
Future Zhou Li said seriously: "Is there a higher realm above the realm of the Venerable One?"
"I have stayed in this realm for an unknown number of years. I once thought that the Venerable Master of All Realms was the strongest person in the world. But three days ago, after I had nothing to do and swallowed up all the concepts of Zhouli, I vaguely felt something else.
of the heavens.”
"For this answer, I sacrificed my true self through the endless superstring altar of the endless abyss. After synchronizing with the pulse of the heavens and worlds, and after discovering other heavens and worlds, I handed over a copy to all the worlds I discovered.
Please post."
"Thoughts and memories are transmitted simultaneously. Under the Venerable Master of All Realms, please stay away."
Zhou Li digested these words silently, and finally concluded: "You came to this world for an answer, and you found the answer."
"And because of my presence, there is no parallel world in the blood moon world."
"Smart." Future Zhou Li praised.
The two fell into silence immediately.
Zhou Li asked: "Is it worth it?"
Future Zhou Li laughed loudly and said, "You will understand later."
After saying that, he waved his right hand, and the surrounding scene changed rapidly. The sun and clouds disappeared, the light dimmed, and the sea of flowers dissipated step by step.
The smell of decaying dust filled the air, and piles of rotten and collapsed bookshelves appeared out of thin air all around. The bamboo slips on the bookshelves had long been weathered.
Zhou Li stood confused in the ashes, his face full of questions: Who am I and where am I? The previous memory of Zhou Li in the future was ruthlessly sealed.
Suddenly, cold sweat broke out on his back, waves of fear surged into his heart, and his eyes as he looked at his home by the lake were full of terror.
"Tap, tap, tap"
There was a sound of footsteps, and Mr. Yao and the others walked to the library, stopped looking at the finely carved black wooden door, and slowly opened the door to see the dilapidated scene.
Gui Lao's expression changed from excitement at first, to shock, and finally to extreme despair. He looked at Zhou Li in the ruins, then looked at the dilapidated ruins on the ground, and fainted to the ground.
"Old ghost! Old ghost!"
Mr. Li hurriedly helped Mr. Gui up, and placed his right hand on his pulse. A stream of cool breath traveled through his body. He was sure that he had just fainted because of the heat, and then he felt relieved.
Zhou Li stood awkwardly, neither sitting nor standing, although this matter had nothing to do with him.
But there is no surveillance here, so I am the most suspicious no matter what.
After a while, Gui Lao woke up slowly, looked at Zhou Li who was awkwardly there, and said, "Little friend Zhou, come here first."
Zhou Li raised his leg, and the old ghost said in a slightly urgent tone: "Slow down, slow down."
Zhou Li suddenly froze on the spot.
"Come and lift your legs, slowly, slowly, move forward." Gui Lao said softly.
Zhou Li followed Gui Lao's command and walked out slowly step by step like a robot.
The old ghost climbed down cautiously, looked at the ashes-like bamboo slips, and said in a sad tone: "God is going to destroy my Yin-Yang family, how can the ancient books of our ancestors become like this!"
Yao Lao looked at Zhou Li and asked, "Why are you here? Is there any mechanism here?"
Zhou Li did not answer Yao Lao's words. He looked at Gui Lao and said uncertainly: "Gui Lao, there may be room for redemption of these classics."
"What did you say?" Gui Lao said excitedly.
Zhou Li continued: "I don't know how I came here, but I vaguely remember a name: Donghuang Taiyi."
Suddenly, everyone present was shocked. It was possible that Donghuang Taiyi was still alive. Could it be that this was the chance to solve the world's will?
I saw Gui Lao regain his sad expression, straighten his sleeves, form a seal with his hands, and perform the oldest technique of the Yin Yang family.
As the technique was running, the surrounding ruins were inexplicably blown by wind, and the ashes of the bamboo slips were blown away, and they continued to rotate around the central point.
Under the witness of everyone, the phantom of a human body and a snake's tail emerged, and the ashes and dust were continuously sucked into it, and his body shape continued to solidify.
He looked at Gui Lao with his bright white eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, and the changes of five thousand years of world history were imprinted in his mind.
An ethereal and steady voice sounded: "My disciples, the Yin Yang family is still alive. You have done a good job."
"I divined the starry sky five thousand years ago and predicted that my Yin Yang family would perish at the hands of the Han Dynasty. I didn't expect that you kept your name anonymous and allowed it to endure until now."
Gui Lao looked at Donghuang Taiyi excitedly and didn't say a word for a long time.
Upon seeing this, Donghuang Taiyi said: "I am a dead man, and I can't help you. I will pass on these outdated techniques to you."
He waved his sleeves, and the bamboo slips on the bookshelf condensed into shadows, and finally shrank and flew into the ghost's mind.
