Chapter 1041: Cause and Effect 1

“Those who hinder me will die!!”

Garen’s silhouette moved violently and rushed towards the Space-Time Print like an arrow that had just left the bow. Within a few moments, he was able to reach a place that was extremely close to the edges of the Space-Time Print.

He split open a Blue Frost Sect powerhouse that appeared in front of him.

A clanging noise could be heard throughout his whole body before the noise of the blade jolted in his surroundings as he charged forward.

Whizz!!

Garen’s entire body burrowed into the Space-Time Print and instantly disappeared.

“Withdraw!” yelled Dragon Eye’s Golden Butterfly while raising her hand.

She looked precisely at the powerhouse who was rushing from behind. He definitely had a grudge against Garen. If she did not withdraw now, he would surely let out his anger on her later and the consequences would be disastrous.

The gazes of the disciples behind her from the three sects stared bewilderedly at the place where Garen had entered. No one had expected that Garen had such powerful strength here.

When they started to retreat frantically, a dark blue silhouette suddenly shot over from a far away distance.

The person who arrived was an imposing youth who had lost his sight. His face was cold and his entire body was somewhat in disarray. When he arrived, the entire sky distorted and turned blurry faintly. It was obvious that it was violently suppressed by his tremendous Energy Field. The air currents were somewhat sluggish as well.

Before the crowd could react, this person charged into the Space-Time Print directly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

“Senior Brother!” Some of the remaining powerhouses of Blue Frost Sect cried out in alarm but none of them could convince that man to return.

“What do we do now?!”

“Retreat! This is not something we can control anymore. We need to report to the Elders immediately!”

The members of Blue Frost Sect rapidly began to formulate countermeasures.

Most of the members of the three sects including Dragon Eye had withdrawn completely by now. There were only some animal Energy Machinery that were left behind to monitor this territory.

When Golden Butterfly left, she turned back and glanced at the Space-Time Print. When someone entered this thing, it was unnecessary for them to exit from the same place. Instead, they could select other Space-Time Prints freely. Garen would definitely exit from another place. The three sects of the Northern Yu Province had suffered terrible losses in the Void Battlefields this time. Dragon Eye and Nine Owl had lost one member each. This was something that was hard to imagine at the edges of the Void Battlefields.

“Senior Sister, what do we do when we return this time?” asked an Energy Machinist with a solemn look on his face quietly during the journey back.

“What do we do? What else can we do? We can only answer everything honestly,” Golden Butterfly glanced at Lonray and felt comforted instantly. They had not suffered the most. Scarlet Snow Sect had fallen to the point where they were only left with two members. Meanwhile, their Great Supervisor was merely…

“Sigh… There’s still that powerhouse. I hope that he’ll be able to leave safely…” When she recalled the blue youth that chased them all this way, Golden Butterfly felt a slight tremble in her heart for unknown reasons. It was clear that this was a phenomenon that was caused when the other party’s strength was far beyond her own.

“Lonray, what do you plan to do?” She asked after pondering for some time.

Lonray smiled bitterly.

“What else can I do? It’s fortunate that I completed my mission beforehand. I only have to wait near the Great Supervisor before returning directly after that.”

“Then what about your… The powerhouse that charged into the Space-Time Print is…” asked Golden Butterfly quietly.

“His name is Garen and he’s a newly arrived Three Hearted. No one had anticipated for that fellow to be so powerful. However, I’ve heard that he was recommended by Third Senior Sister Eva. It looks like he’s actually very powerful,” said Lonray while praising him slightly.

“Unfortunately, your Third Senior Sister is still participating in the Planet Supremacy War. If she were to return…” Golden Butterfly recalled Eva’s strength and sighed again. She had experienced too many surprises today. It was better for her to return earlier and rearrange her thoughts after visiting the Intelligence Organization. She needed to reevaluate the potential of Scarlet Snow Sect once again.

The group rushed towards a different base quickly.

Space-Time Print

On the unimaginably gigantic Space-Time Print, Garen smashed inside head first like a stone that had crashed into a wide stream. His entire body was covered it in for awhile as if he had passed through a layer of sticky liquid. The various colors in front of his eyes turned into a dark purple mess.

Dark purple. Everywhere was dark purple. The entire range that could be seen by his eyes was fully purple.

When Garen first opened his eyes, this was the scene he saw.

He was currently standing on a gigantic purple field that was devoid of other people. A huge, round, pale-white stone laid directly in front of him on the purple field quietly.

The sky above the round stone was purple while there were many patterns on the round stone that was also purple. There were motley traces on the surface of the sphere that remained from many years ago as well.

Yeah… Ah… Nah…

A drawn-out syllable that sounded like a song drifted over in the wind faintly. It sounded as if it was echoing from an extremely far distance.

Hum…

The earth started quaking faintly before the gigantic round stone that was a few thousand meters tall shook suddenly as well.

There was a cracking noise before a fissure appeared from the inside of the sphere. An unimaginably huge black rat’s red emerged from within.

Garen stared with his mouth wide open as the thousand meters long rat burrowed out of the round stone.

Its entire body was exactly similar to that of a rat, making it look completely like a normal rodent. However, it’s body that had been enlarged by a few thousand times shocked everybody.

Once the black rat had burrowed its way out, it started to chew the outer shell of the round stone beside itself. It seemed as though it was eating a biscuit while the scratching chewing noises filled his ears.

Suddenly, a purple ray of lightning flashed past.

Boom!

The sound of thunder rolled on while the purple sky was suddenly filled with layers of clouds, making it seem like it could rain at any moment. The sky was gloomy and filled with heavy rain clouds. It seemed as though the black clouds would come crashing down at any moment as they were unimaginably heavy.

It seemed as if the black rat had realized something. It raised its head and chirped twice. The sound of its sharp and terrifying cries made Garen feel as if his ears were pierced and injured by the noise. Both of his ears were numb from the pain.

Boom…

The sound of thunder filled the sky before the rat raised its pointed head as if it was angry.

At this moment, numerous short red lines appeared throughout its entire body. Fresh red blood dripped out of the edges of these red lines slowly. They covered its tail as well before the densely-packed short red lines increased and became even redder.

Rip!

A neat but strange sound could be heard as if its flesh had been torn instantly like a piece of cloth.

The short red lines throughout the rat’s entire body tore open suddenly. They were actually countless bloody red human eyes!!

Garen could feel his skin tingle the moment more than ten pairs of those eyes glanced at him. An extremely terrifying sense of danger assaulted him suddenly.

There was an explosion in front of his eyes and it immediately felt like the entire world was spinning and his body became unbalanced which caused him to fall face-up on the ground.

Although his body had collapsed, Garen’s Soul Seeds began to spin instead. They pulled and protected his Willpower independently.

An invisible force that resembled a stream began to flow through the side of Garen’s body slowly.

Although he could not see, he still felt as if he was floating through an invisible river. The contents of the river were not water but a liquid that could be detected but not felt. It was not the aura of the Mother Stream but felt somewhat like it. It was slightly familiar but unfamiliar at the same time.

“Are these the Forces of Cause and Effect?” Garen recalled the source of this power suddenly.

The Soul Seeds spun inside his mind frantically. The Northern Trident Frost-Fire True Water Evil Technique’s seed and the Holy Phoenix Demonic Book’s Soul Seed constantly stimulated an abundance of terrifying light beams. Within both of their respective blue and black-gold colored halos, shrouds of purple mist diffused slowly and became denser while increasing.

Garen’s eyes could suddenly see again.

However, neither of his eyes were open. This was a mysterious sensation. His eyes were obviously still closed but he could see everything in front of himself clearly. It seemed like he was dreaming.

“If this place is where the Forces of Cause and Effect gather, that explains the reason why those Energy Machinist prodigies were able to increase their awareness upon entering this place. The Forces of Cause and Effect represent everything that affects other things. In other words, there can only be effects if they are causes. Once they have seen the things that are necessary to cause sufficiently powerful strength clearly, it’s equivalent to seeing their own paths and directions. It’s understandable that they would be able to realize everything from there,” Garen’s mind became clearer.

“If a place like this was actually able to become a physical place that could be detected as well, I don’t know if there are others like me. Probably not!” Garen rejected his own assumption immediately.

This was the source of this world and universe. It was also the foundation and stream of every single path and rule. Although he could not see the invisible Forces of Cause and Effect that flowed around him, this did not hinder his Soul Seeds from detecting them. He felt that he could grope for a path that he could consider his own from here.

“Soul Seeds, go…” Garen’s mind stirred slightly as he allowed both of the Soul Seeds to release their powers fully. He no longer used the extremely careful mentality anymore.

Hum!!

Both Soul Seeds shook suddenly when it seemed as though they had received permission.

It seemed as if Garen had seen his own location in that instance.

He was lying face up in the center of an endless purple sea. They were countless layers of purple fog and clouds above him that seemed as though they could collapse at any moment.

Below him was an incomparably terrifying abyss that was unimaginably deep. Countless powerful and terrifying purple eyes were blinking slowly within the abyss and emitting intense malicious intents. Those malicious intents were enough to stir terrible fear within Garen’s finely-honed Willpower Soul Seeds.

“This place is… the Sea of Cause and Effect?” Garen felt the abundance of moving seawater around him. The things that flowed past the edges of his body was not water but was instead the Forces of Cause and Effect instead.

He was unsure if this was the initial use of the Space-Time Print. Scarlet Snow Sect was merely a small sect that did not have accounts of this aspect. Therefore, this was his first time coming into contact with everything here. He had no way of determining what was normal and what was abnormal.

He could faintly see a person floating from afar quickly.

That person was a man with a golden ponytail. Both of his eyes were tightly shut and he had handsome features. However, there were two thin red scars on his eyelids that looked somewhat bewitching.

The man who was fully dressed in white clothes floated and sank in the sea as if he had been in deep sleep for a long time.

Garen passed this man and floated unconsciously. He saw another person soon enough but his heart trembled greatly this time. The person that he saw this time was very familiar. It was Blue Pole Star!!

“He actually chased me all the way here!”

The big and tall youth that was blue from head to toe was floating face-up as well. Both of his eyes were tightly shut, making it difficult to tell if he was awake or asleep.

“Looks like I wasn’t the only one who entered this place,” Garen’s mind had cleared up.

He waited until Blue Pole Star had gradually floated further away before he sighed in relief faintly. It was clear that the other person was in deep sleep. Otherwise, he could not have escaped so easily this time. The difference between both of their powers was too vast.

Crack!

It seemed as though Garen had heard a cracking noise coming from himself suddenly.

He wanted to move and investigate it but was completely unable to raise his hand. He could only check his condition through all of the angles around him.

During an unknown moment, Garen realized that a pure white mark had appeared on the center of his own forehead suddenly. The mark was shaped like a simple ‘Y’ and resembled a white jade that was clearly embedded in his forehead.

Yeah… Ah… Nah…!!

The ancient drawn-out song slowly drifted over from afar again.

Garen could suddenly only feel the presence of unusual changes within the talents and powers of his body that had been calm all this while. The Attribute Pane and Skill Pane at the bottom of his field of vision spun and became blurry abruptly before shrinking into a red dot rapidly.

There was a crashing noise before the red dot exploded and occupied Garen’s entire field of vision completely without leaving a single gap.

An extremely strange sensation traveled out of Garen’s body. He felt as if countless threads, or even tentacles, were being shot out of his body instantly. These abundant tentacles constantly spread out towards the depth of the Sea of Cause and Effect. They were limitless and extremely long.

Thousands, ten thousands, and even millions of these root-like structures erupted from the inside of his body immediately.

Garen felt as though he had turned into a tree. These countless tentacles had taken root within the sea and were constantly absorbing everything that he needed from extremely far away places back to him.

At this moment, purple flashed filled his eyes and made him feel as if he had seen his destiny…

Seemingly endless information surged into the depths of Garen’s mind frantically. They were spun rapidly and absorbed by both of his powerful Soul Seeds before the information was organized and arranged into contents that were related to him. Although this was not the first time that Garen was imparted with information this way, he still felt a swelling pain in his brain.

His numerous roots constantly screened and filtered the relevant seawater from the Sea of Cause and Effect before absorbing it into his body. This was the second time they were being absorbed and arranged by the Soul Seeds before they formed dots of tiny purple light.

He had seen, heard, and even felt most of this information.

Garen could understand many things at that moment. He saw many things as well such as his future and the future of this world.

This was his destiny! As well as the destiny of those around him.
