Chapter 643 The Changed Past

The rays of light converged into lines of small characters, which appeared before Liu Ping's eyes:

"Please choose from the following items to obtain the rewards of this stage."

"One, a dream card;"

"Second, creature slot (choose this option, and the number of creatures you can summon will increase by one);"

"Three, dream fruit (help you make up for some kind of regret deep in your heart)."

Liu Ping read it quickly, and then read it carefully again.

Obviously, the last time the "Omen" was triggered, he chose "the thing you fear".

This time "fear" became "regret".

——What will this cause?
This one is more likely than the other two options.

"I choose three, the fruit of the dream." Liu Ping said.

A fruit exuding hazy brilliance quietly appeared in front of him.

Almost in an instant, the fruit turned into strands of light and submerged into Liu Ping's body.

all of a sudden.

All the scenery around turned into quicksand, and went away with a bang.

Liu Ping found himself back in that restaurant again.

This is the future.

The future self is still sitting in the restaurant, holding a cup of tea in his hand, drinking slowly.

He glanced at Liu Ping and said slowly:

"You have more power of dreams, this is our turning point."

Liu Ping pondered for a moment, then asked puzzledly, "What will be the outcome of this future battle?"

That Liu Ping said: "The result of the future is that all sentient beings and all things will be destroyed, but since I realized the trick of 'Lonely Life' and triggered the 'Omen' along the way, everything has changed."

He reached out and made a pushing gesture in mid-air.

One after another dominoes appeared in the void, and they were pushed lightly by him, and they fell down one after another.

"The first domino stands here, which is your future."

"When I push it down, then from it all the way to the past, every link and every thing will change accordingly."

Liu Ping thought for a while and said, "It's not easy to understand."

The future he spread out his hands and continued: "To give another example, you sowed seeds in the field yesterday and harvested the fruits tomorrow. Is this understandable?"

"Yes." Liu Ping nodded.

"If you planted melons yesterday, you should reap melons tomorrow, right?"

"Correct."

"But the future has changed, tomorrow instead of melons you harvest beans - does that make sense?"

"It doesn't make sense."

"That's right, it doesn't make sense in terms of time, space, fate, causality, and logic, but you did get the beans, and these beans are already in your hands, what should you do now?"

Liu Ping thought for a while and said, "Unless I changed my mind after planting yesterday and planted beans in the field instead."

"That's right, so the past will definitely change!" the future Liu Ping said.

"When did it start?" Liu Ping asked.

"When I seal that guy, it means the 'guo' has changed." Future Liu Ping said.

"...But how to change the past?" Liu Ping murmured.

"This is what we are fighting for - what happened in the past? Why did it change? My enemies also want to know about this, and even want to control the past!" Liu Ping of the future said softly.

"Is there no one else who can help except me?" Liu Ping asked.

"Look around." Future Liu Ping said.

Liu Ping stood on the restaurant, leaning on the railing and looking into the distance.

The whole world is empty.

Only him and his future self are in this world.

Outside the world, there is only endless blankness and nothingness left.

Even the world has a deep sense of loneliness, as if nothing but the present world ceases to exist.

Liu Ping felt slightly suffocated and couldn't help taking a breath.

The future him turned his arms at will, and immediately rolled the teacup on the table into his hands.

Holding the teacup, he took a sip of the tea and murmured: "The art of the world, the world in my sleeve - I didn't know this before."

"I just learned it not long ago." Liu Ping shrugged.

"So now I will - look, you are in the middle of 'past' and 'future', you can change the two ends of time, what a rare opportunity this is." Future Liu Ping said.

"Are you waiting for me to work in the future? You don't do anything yourself?" Liu Ping said with his hands on his hips.

"What are you talking about, I am you, the future you." The future Liu Ping smiled.

Suddenly there was a creepy cry from the sky.

Both Liu Ping stood up.

Pieces of black scales appeared from the void and flew towards the future him.

"Listen, when I seal it, the 'result' will change, and the Four Laws will kick you back to the past—my enemy will also find ways to invest power in the past, you have to stop it!" Liu Ping said in the future.

"Me?" Liu Ping said.

"I'm staying here to fight, so it can only be you - or myself in the final analysis - the 'Omen' has activated, and the power of the dream is anchored in your heart, sending you to certain places. Time." Future Liu Ping said.

The voice fell.

He gently pushed Liu Ping in the dream.

Liu Ping disappeared from the restaurant immediately.

……

In a void.

The dark void is filled with wind.

Below, is an endless river of time.

Countless historical fragments flashed endlessly in the long river, showing everything that happened on the entire timeline.

Liu Ping floated in mid-air, waiting quietly.

suddenly.

He felt something in his heart, and looked up towards the end of the long river.

A deafening roar spread throughout the ten directions:
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

I saw that in the distance of the long river of time, a huge body connecting the sky and the earth suddenly appeared.

It was dressed in pitch-black scale armor, and it let out an extremely painful howl, as if it was in an ultimate battle with something.

That is my future self!
He launched "Lonely Life" with that huge black scale armor and sealed something!
Liu Ping looked at it calmly, and an incomparable sense of fear suddenly felt uncontrollable in his heart.

What is it!
It can destroy all beings and all things, and even all worlds!
What kind of existence can do this step?
Those nightmare masters, and those doomsday people, aren't they its opponents?

Lines of burning small characters quickly emerged:
"With the dual power of 'Omen' and 'Dream Fruit', you will go to a certain moment in the past."

"It was an incident that you regret immensely."

"You have to change it."

"—Because only by changing it, you can stay in the past for a longer period of time, and your enemies are trying to influence the past!"

"You have to do this."

"If you fail, everything on the entire space-time line will be invalid, and you will be obliterated by the four laws."

"--start!"

Liu Ping disappeared from the void in an instant.

……

It was quiet.

Liu Ping opened his eyes and found himself lying on the hospital bed with injuries all over his body.

Here is the hospital.

He lay in bed thinking silently.

——When was this in the past?
what happened?
Suddenly, a memory gradually appeared in his mind.

"……I remembered."

Liu Ping murmured.

This is an event in the past era, when I went deep into a certain world and studied the world's life-like bodies.

At that time, the consciousness of this world had just been born, and a nightmare master had come to destroy everything, plunder resources and sentient beings.

At that time, I believed that the master of all nightmares was the will of the world, so I only helped to resist a little.

When he realized that he could not defeat the nightmare master, he had no choice but to fly away and let the world be destroyed.

It was only after many years that I realized something.

- This world is innocent.

Its soul has just been born, if it can be guided correctly, it might become its own help.

Everything here will not be destroyed.

There is one more important thing.

This world... seems to be hiding some secrets.

Liu Ping thought about the cause and effect, and disappeared from the hospital bed in a blink of an eye.

He appeared directly at the gate of a temple thousands of miles away.

"That's right, it's here."

He whispered, standing outside the door and waiting quietly.

Soon.

There was a slight sobbing sound from the temple.

——It was a newborn world-like life body, because it realized that its gods had all died in battle, and could no longer resist the devouring of the nightmare master, and it was about to be destroyed along with the world, so it began to cry at the last moment.

Liu Ping pushed the door open and went in.

I saw that the statues in the main hall had collapsed, and all the candles were extinguished.

The rows of seats were empty, and no one came to worship the gods. There was only a small figure sitting in the first row, whimpering and crying.

"Do you need help?" Liu Ping asked.

The figure suddenly stopped crying, and turned to look at Liu Ping.

This is a little girl in a short skirt, her bangs combed straight, and her light blue eyes are full of despair.

"Excuse me, who are you?" she asked.

"I'm Liu Ping, a passing world master." Liu Ping said.

——Originally in this era, I was just a human master with peak strength.

But with the help of the 'harbinger' and 'dream' to do it again, now he is already a world-like life form.

I never talked to her back then...

But now, I have the qualifications to speak.

"My world is about to be destroyed." The little girl said.

"It's obvious that the Nightmare Lord is eyeing your world, but I happen to hate the Nightmare Lord very much, so if you want, I'll use your world as a battlefield to meet it for a while." Liu Ping said .

"Of course I am willing. I will remember your help in my heart." The little girl saluted solemnly.

"What's your name?" Liu Ping asked.

"I don't have a name yet, what about you?"

"My name is Liu Ping."

"Liu Ping?"

"Yes, let's kill the Nightmare Lord together."

"Okay, I may not be able to help much, I have already killed the gods."

"It's okay, cheering is also a good help, it can boost my confidence."

"Can we win?"

"In case I can't fight, I have a way to escape with you."

"Really?"

"Fake, your whole world is here, where can you escape, if you want to escape, only I can escape."

……

"Don't cry, I'm joking."

"Hey, don't cry, I was wrong, okay, I will try my best to fight this time."
