To figure out the space conversion entrances and exits between various castles, one needs to try and explore again and again. This is not boring, but arouses everyone's interest. Time passes very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Huzi and Du Xiaoyue spent half a day searching. I found a place to rest underneath. The sky was already dark, and the pale full moon was already hanging in the sky. But above the "heaven", the moon could not be seen, only the stars that had not yet shown their light and shadow in the human world. .

Kite and Wangxiang were the first to get tired and sat on the top of a castle to rest for a while. Then Lingdang and Fang Tianmu also stopped. Only Muziyun was still full of energy, looking for space transition points.

After an hour, everyone gathered together. Apart from the familiar space mechanisms, there were no other novel discoveries. Huzi really guessed that there was no one in this "heaven". As for the source of its powerful oppression, no one has ever discovered it. The reason why this "heaven" is suspended in the air is probably because of a special technique, which also exists beyond everyone's knowledge.

Not long after, Ling Ding suddenly said: "This city is a fake city."

"It must have been abandoned," Mu Ziyun said.

"No, no," the bell replied, "it has been deserted from the beginning to the end. It has been like this since it appeared."

"Why do you say that? Haven't you seen the strangeness of this continent in your memory? Isn't that proof that there are living beings? And if these castles are not man-made, are they natural?" Mu Ziyun shook his head and said: "It should be an abandoned place, and it can't be considered a city because there are only a few castles."

Kite asked softly: "Ling Dang, have you ever heard of such a 'kingdom of heaven' before? Why is it called a fake city?"

Lingdang paused for a long time before saying: "This is indeed a fake city. How to explain it? Just like when we want to build something, except for the final product, all items in the process are considered 'fake', and this The city is a 'fake thing' produced by the creatures during the process of creating the city in the sky. It is the result of some kind of confusion."

"Which aspect? Be specific." Mu Ziyun asked.

Lingdang explained: "You can detect the position of space transformation, but you don't know that space and time are often connected. For example, if I move to the position where you are standing, it is not that I am walking over or flying over, but that I am moving to where you are in an instant. There is no road in between, but a direct jump in space. So, your position now and your position one hour later are both the same space point. Can I transfer to your position one hour later? ?This is not impossible.”

Mu Ziyun immediately interrupted: "In my opinion, it is difficult to switch between spaces, but it is even more difficult to change time. What you said is based on the fact that a person can travel through space and time at the same time. If he has such ability, he can certainly do what you said."

"Actually, the spells of time and space are a bit similar. Although I have never been exposed to them, I know that they are very closely related to each other, because different points in time can be regarded as different points in space. Traveling through time is actually traveling through space. But time The magic technique is overly complicated based on the space magic technique. To put it simply, only by learning to travel through space can it be possible to travel through time. As for how to rise from space to the level of time, no one from ancient times to the present has known it. , can only be achieved by 'luck'."

"This has nothing to do with 'Kingdom of Heaven'

'Is there any connection? "Kite asked.

"Yes, when this castle was built, more than a dozen space conversion points were added based on the needs of the creatures, that is, space spells. But who can guarantee that all spells will not cause any errors? Or maybe Are the two spatial spells reacting to each other, perhaps producing chaotic effects?"

"Time travel?" Mu Ziyun guessed.

"Yes," Lingdang continued, "Time belongs to the oldest and highest-ranking god in the literature records of my home. For hundreds of millions of years, no living being has been able to understand it. No one has the ability to travel through time. Although some events recorded in the literature are suspicious of creatures traveling through time, none of them can be confirmed. Therefore, no one knows what will happen after touching 'time'."

After Zingdang paused for a moment, he continued: "I know this is hard to believe, but when the space spells of these castles are cast, they inexplicably produce the effects of time spells, but they are not complete. For example, in At noon today, the space spell was confused by the contact, resulting in a time spell, causing a city to appear at the same position at noon tomorrow, but the main body did not disappear because of the immaturity and incompleteness of the time spell, which is equivalent to it The shadow travels through time and space and reaches the location tomorrow. Then, when noon comes the next day, an identical city will suddenly appear at the corresponding location."

"You mean..." Mu Ziyun said, "This city traveled through time during its creation, the shadow of the City in the Sky?"

"Yes, the city I saw in my memory should be the main body, inhabited by living beings, and this city is the shadow, the fake sky city." Lingdang explained: "This city should be near the end of construction. , produced a time spell that traveled through time for at least a hundred years. At that time, the original creatures had already moved elsewhere. Yes, these suspended cities were moving at any time, so many years later, the original location suddenly A city has appeared, and no one will notice it. Maybe the original group of creatures have perished long ago, and this city is floating alone between heaven and earth. It was brought here after the world was reorganized."

"One question," Mu Ziyun stared at the bell and asked, "How can you be sure that this is a fake city and not the real thing? What if those creatures are dead?"

"Have you found the bones of any living beings here? Or traces of their movements?"

"No, but ten thousand years is enough time to wipe out all those things."

"Then after you have been exploring for so long, have you found some space transition points that you can only travel to but can never find the way back?"

"This?" Mu Ziyun lowered his head in confusion.

Bell said: "This is precisely because the effect of the time spell was produced before it was fully constructed."

"According to what you said, the construction has not been completed yet, so what about the creatures at that time? Shouldn't they also be taken through time? Even if they are brought here as shadows, they are still living creatures. At least some should be left here. Isn’t it something?” Mu Ziyun asked in confusion, and then asked Xiang Fang Tianmu, “Did you notice that there are traces of living things here?”

"No," Fang Tianmuleng replied. He was not interested in the time and space spells mentioned by Lingdang. But Wangxiang listened with great interest, because he had the ability to travel through space (teleport). Although he could do it, it was only a dead end and not a thorough one.

"Alas" Lingdang sighed and said: "Time is very scary. No god can completely control it or study it thoroughly. As I said just now, the time spell is completed on the basis of the space spell. Um, so what is the form of the space spell, and what form will the time spell follow? I said that the space conversion spell and other structures here are very ancient spells. That is because the form in which they transform space is very special. , or rather obsolete. Take Wang Xiang's teleportation as an example. He decomposes the space, causing cracks in it, and then opens the exit in the same way in another space. Wang Xiang's body just walked through a passage. But it’s done in an instant.”

"But the one here is different. It decomposes the shuttle objects and then reorganizes them in another space. During this period, there are no cracks in the space. Only the shuttle objects change. This is a very ancient space technique. Many creatures have already Its elimination. When the time spell is generated in this way, it will also decompose the shuttle objects and then reorganize them at the next point in time. But how can the originally incomplete time spell perfectly reorganize the shuttle objects? Those The stones scattered in the soil are proof of unsuccessful reorganization. Only simple things can be reorganized completely. After all, it takes hundreds or thousands of years to travel, but the process of traveling only happens in an instant, and the processes of decomposition and reorganization are all It is extremely fast. Conscious and flesh-and-blood existences such as humans or other creatures are difficult to be reorganized. They will be scattered and destroyed in the process, and what is left behind are stones, grass, and the like. "

"What about the original living beings?" Kite asked, "Their shadows have been transported through time...will they themselves be affected?"

Lingdang shook his head and replied: "They probably disappeared, or suddenly lost part of their bodies, because they have to be decomposed when they shuttle. If they fail to shuttle, they will be reorganized back. But those that are too complicated cannot be reorganized. And at least some of the things have traveled through time."

"I still don't understand," Mu Ziyun said with a frown, "Then is this from time travel or not? Why is there one here and another in the future?"

"This is the flaw of the ancient space transformation technique. The body must be decomposed and reorganized to complete the space transfer. If Wangxiang opens the space rift, then the entire city will shuttle to the next point in time, but if we want to decompose the shuttle It is equivalent to making a shadow in the water. Until the shadow is completely complete, the shuttle object can be completely transferred. If it is interrupted in the middle, the shuttle will stop, but the current time and the future will have some real objects. This is because some unexplored laws of heaven and earth also give them meaning of existence. Just like copying, the me now and the me two hours later are both meaningful, unless the current me disappears completely. , can it be proved that there is only one me at these two points in time, but in fact there are two me. Sigh... I was very confused when I first heard about this kind of thing, and I still don’t understand it now?”

"Where did you hear about it?" Mu Ziyun and Kite asked at the same time. Everyone stared at the bell and felt that this girl was a bit strange and mysterious. Yes, just like Fang Tianmu (Fang Tianmu never said that own life experience), no one knows what Lingdang’s life experience is.

Lingdang's face turned red and he hesitated, "I heard what the old man said. It happened in the past. You will know it when you travel."
