Chapter 1528 Leaving
That being said, having multiple skills is ultimately a good thing.
Who knows, someday, when you're entangled with a powerful opponent, you might be able to use this move to achieve a surprising victory!
Chen Mu was quite satisfied with the last fragment of Hell. All things considered, it gave him an extra backup plan.
Chen Mu waved his hand and put the Hell Fragment into his pocket, storing it in his spatial ring.
Now, Chen Mu has collected all ten fragments of Hell.
However, just as the Time and Space Lord had warned him, Chen Mu dared not easily assemble Hell without absolute certainty.
To be on the safe side, Chen Mu even took one of the pieces out and put it in his pocket, wrapping it with his innate evil energy.
Chen Mu was also worried that the cunning Supreme Being of the Deceptive Path was setting a trap for him. If the ten fragments could be put together and automatically fuse, he would be in real trouble.
The reason for removing one of the pieces now is to prevent them from merging automatically.
After completing these tasks, Chen Mu celebrated his gains at the Underworld Post Office: a strengthening crystal and a spatial tide.
Everything went smoothly, and the results were as expected.
Besides that, the biggest gain was probably acquiring a powerful spatial ability user.
Chen Mu's sphere of influence expanded from land, sea, air, and space to the ethereal dimensions of space.
If only I had another powerful subordinate who could extend my sphere of influence into the dimension of time.
In that case, one can expand their sphere of influence in all directions, without any blind spots, including land, sea, air, space, and time.
Chen Mu expanded his sphere of influence not primarily to cause trouble, but so that he wouldn't be afraid of trouble when others did.
With the title of "Supreme Ruler of Time and Space," if someone tries to attack him from within space, he will at least have a way to deal with it and the strength to retaliate.
Time seems even more elusive than space. Even a powerful being with a strong understanding of time would likely find it difficult to achieve.
Thinking of this, Chen Mu suddenly realized that there was one last chief among the seven chiefs of the Storm Defense Line whom he had not yet met.
If nothing unexpected happens, the black hole guarded by the chief will be the next mysterious portal.
Back when time rewound, and he was protecting his mother from being targeted, Chen Mu remembered Tian Shihhan mentioning something—
One of the chiefs of the Stormline has severed ties with his past.
Cut ties with the past...
This is a method that even Chen Mu, in his current state, cannot achieve.
The method Chen Mu is currently using cannot be described as severing ties with the past. He is sending his newborn self to a horror movie theater to simulate his own growth process.
This way, one can retain their childhood experiences while preventing malicious individuals from killing them.
However, this approach can only be considered as adding a protective shield to one's past self. It is far from severing ties with the past.
I have no idea how that chief executive managed to do it.
Chen Mu was eager to meet that powerful figure he had never met. After returning this time, his next step would be to conquer the tenth Ghost Gate.
At that moment, Chen Mu cupped his hands to the Lord of Time and Space, "Thank you for your hospitality, Lord of Time and Space. If you don't mind, please come back to Wangjiang Watch with us."
Although Chen Mu knew the other party would definitely not refuse, whether they refused or not was their business, while whether he invited them or not was his own attitude.
Showing respect is also an important way to win people's hearts.
“Of course, it’s exactly what I’d like,” said the Lord of Time and Space.
Chen Mu wasted no more time. He immediately activated the "Time-Space Grafting" skill and packaged the entire [Netherworld Post Office] on the spot.
"It's time to get out of here."
Chen Mu glanced back; only three or four days had passed since he stepped into this place. However, the density of information during that time was equivalent to ten days in other bizarre scenarios!
Not only did they overcome two bizarre missions, but they also pieced together the last piece of the puzzle, learned about spatial knowledge, and gained a subordinate with rare skills.
It was a very rewarding trip, and definitely worthwhile.
After the packing was completed, the passageway leading away from the eerie scene appeared before Chen Mu's eyes.
Chen Mu, along with Xiao Ye and the Time and Space Sovereign, headed towards the passage.
Entering the tunnel, it was another familiar spatial journey.
Chen Mu asked, "Supreme Being of Time and Space, are you saying that this kind of spatial tunnel is also a manifestation of spatial distortion?"
The Lord of Time and Space said, "Boss Chen, this kind of time tunnel is unique to high-level eerie scenes. It is specifically used to connect high-level eerie scenes with the entrance."
Theoretically speaking, it is indeed a distortion of space, and an extreme one at that.
You can imagine it as twisting space into a pretzel shape and then tying a knot in the pretzel.
In this way, two points that were originally far apart can overlap because of the knot. This overlapping part is what we now call the tunnel.
I must remind you that this type of tunnel is actually very unstable. The space is twisted and knotted, which has actually destroyed the original structure.
Next time you pass through this type of tunnel, it's best not to linger; leave as soon as possible.
Because you never know when the knot might come undone, triggering a terrifying spatial storm. As far as I know, there have been unfortunate individuals who, upon entering eerie scenes, have been strangled to death by such spatial storms.
Chen Mu looked at the tunnel in front of him. He used to think that such spatial tunnels were spectacular.
I never imagined that such a danger was hidden amidst the spectacular scenery.
The Lord of Time and Space said, "Boss Chen, after we leave, I will return to my original form. My black hole form is the result of space compression."
Doing this consumes a lot of one's innate spiritual energy; it's an extravagant practice, done only to reveal one's true form.
Generally speaking, I would spread out, making my volume 100 times larger than it is now, so that I wouldn't have to expend my innate magical energy.
I will stay by your side; you can sense my presence by observing changes in gravity.
When you get close to me, gravity decreases to one-tenth of normal, giving you a feeling of floating. But once inside my body, gravity increases threefold, making it extremely difficult to move.
Chen Mu nodded. He felt that if there were no changes in gravity, wouldn't the Supreme Being of Time and Space be in an invisible state?
It possesses rule-based skills that allow it to manipulate gravity.
If one's skills are combined with those of the Time and Space Sovereign, one can alter the Time and Space Sovereign's gravity.
Does that mean it can make the Time and Space Lord "invisible"?
Before Chen Mu could think it through, the time tunnel was already nearing its end.
Looking out at the end of the tunnel, at the empty, black universe.
Chen Mu thought with a somewhat wicked sense of humor that the universe is a vacuum, making it impossible for sound to travel.
Even if a ronin were to emerge from the wilderness, his voice would not be able to travel through space.
This means that now, when you emerge from a bizarre scene, you'll finally stop hearing that awkwardly cheesy welcome from the Wild Wanderer.
Thinking of this, Chen Mu's lips couldn't help but curl up slightly.
