Chapter 674: Time and Space Freezer - Ice Mushroom

Li Yang stood in the empty conference hall, his thoughts surging like a tide.

The words of the mysterious visitor echoed in his mind, raising many questions.

He was a carefully designed chess piece... The entire universe was just part of a huge experiment...

Where did the other "self" go?

Just as Li Yang was lost in thought, Ella walked in gently:

"Li Yang, the visitor has left."

"What should we do with the current situation?"

Li Yang came back to his senses and looked at Ella: "No action is needed for the time being. However, we need to speed up the progress."

"You mean...?" Ella asked cautiously.

Li Yang nodded:

"Let's go back to the tower as soon as possible to take a good look."

"I think there may be more information hidden there, which may answer many of our questions."

Ella nodded slightly: "I understand, I will arrange the staff now."

When Ella left, Li Yang fell into thought again.

He recalled everything he had experienced before.

Especially after waking up from this restarted universe...it seems that many things are different.

Perhaps, the truth may really be as the visitor said, all this is calculated by another "self"?

He shook his head to dispel these disturbing thoughts.

Anyway, no matter what the truth is, he decided to move on.

In his opinion, even a carefully designed chess piece can have its own will and choice.

After a while, Li Yang returned to the original tower with a lot of intelligent mechanical researchers.

And this time, without the obstruction of the forbidden temple, the seal of the tower has been completely touched.

Li Yang entered the tower smoothly without any hindrance.

The scene in the tower is completely different from the last time.

It's simply...amazing.

Countless flashing light spots float in the air, forming a complex three-dimensional pattern.

Li Yang reached out and touched one of the light spots, and suddenly, a lot of information poured into his mind.

[Plant illustration update: Mythical plant · Space-time freezer · Ice mushroom unlocked]

[Plant characteristics: can instantly freeze the time and space of an entire universe, and all matter and energy within the area will be instantly sent into a permafrost state]

This time... is it [Ice mushroom]?

Once again... he has gained the power to easily destroy an entire universe.

Although there is a certain cooling period, the superposition of many plants can still create an immortal existence.

With each contact with the [heart] and the traces left by the previous "self", Li Yang is constantly gaining new information and abilities.

Every new plant surprised him, but at the same time, it also made him more and more confused.

Why did the other "self" leave these powers?

Is it to make himself stronger? Or is there another purpose?

Since he already has such a powerful power... why would that "self" choose to disappear instead of using these powers in his hands to achieve himself?

In the deepest part of the tower, Li Yang entered a room that he had not discovered last time.

Obviously, after the last seal was lifted, the structure of the tower has changed.

It was just because Li Yang left in a hurry that he overlooked a lot of things.

A crystal was suspended in the center of the room, emitting a soft light.

When Li Yang approached, the crystal suddenly lit up as if it had sensed something, and projected a figure.

That was another "self".

"If you see this message, it means you have come this far."

The person in the projection said, "First of all, congratulations, you have successfully done many other things that you have never done before, which is amazing."

"Secondly, I want to tell you something."

"As you know, the universe we are in is just one of countless universes."

"Even if we think we are unique, there are actually countless copies."

"And the [system] is an existence that runs through all universes... Our goal is to understand and surpass the [system]."

"You may ask, why do this?"

"I don't know if you have communicated with yourself in other universes..."

"In fact, many of us have this power that we call the [system]."

"And this is our own secret Secret... Even when facing ourselves in other universes, we won't mention it easily... right? "

"But this is the fact. "

"No matter how many of us there are, there is only one [system]..."

"The unresponsive [system] has become a kind of shackle, restricting our path to upward exploration..."

"So, we have to resist. "

"Because only in this way can we truly control our own destiny, rather than being controlled by some unknown force. "

"I have found the direction of the breakthrough, but I need more 'I' to verify this theory..."

"Yes, you heard it right. "

"Although I am sorry for not communicating with you in advance. "

"But I have already laid it out like this, you, and [us] in countless other universes, are all part of this plan. "

"I know it sounds crazy, but please believe me... If you were in my place, you would make the same choice as me after seeing what I have experienced."

"Keep going, collect more [hearts], and make yourself stronger."

"One day in the future, you will stand where I am now and see a wider landscape."

The projection disappeared, leaving Li Yang standing there, shocked and confused.

He thought he had touched the truth of the universe, but now it seems that what he knows is just the tip of the iceberg.

Li Yang stood there, unable to calm down for a long time.

He thought he had stood at the top of the food chain and mastered the power to destroy the universe.

But now it seems that he himself is just a chess piece in the chess game of another "self".

No, maybe not even a "chess piece"...

In the eyes of that higher-dimensional "self", he may just be an experimental data, a sample used to verify a certain theory.

This feeling made Li Yang feel a little uncomfortable.

But at the same time, he felt a little excited.

Because it means that outside this universe, there is a wider world waiting for him to explore.

"Ella." Li Yang said, "What do you think?"

Ella was surprised at this moment.

After all, unlike Jiang Xiaoxiao and Bai Xi, Ella did not have a clear understanding of Li Yang's specialness at this moment.

She only knew that Li Yang was special...but she did not expect that he was so special.

After thinking for a while, she swallowed her saliva and spoke slowly:

"In fact, logically speaking...this holographic video can indeed answer many questions we encountered before."

"But at the same time, other questions have become more confusing..."

"For example...what goal does the higher-dimensional 'you' want to achieve?"
