Chapter 886: Time*1!
The QY-E63 s.p.a.cecraft set sail again. It went into the wormhole and headed straight for the Great Qian Empire.
“The wormhole is an extremely peculiar presence in the universe.
“It’s a narrow tunnel that’s able to connect two different s.p.a.ces. It might also be a s.p.a.ce tunnel that connects a black hole and a white hole. Hence, it’s called a gray tunnel.
“Regardless, you can travel through s.p.a.ce instantly using a wormhole… or rather, travel through time!” Round Ball happily showed off its knowledge in the command room of the s.p.a.cecraft.
“Time travel!” There was a strange glow in w.a.n.g Teng’s eyes.
He had never come into contact with this mysterious field. Time was hard to grasp. It was many times more mysterious than s.p.a.ce.
Round Ball smiled when it saw w.a.n.g Teng’s interest was piqued. It continued, “When the universe was born, everything was in chaos. Then, it operated by itself, and time and s.p.a.ce came into being. These nine basic elements form the physical universe: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, and dark. They encompa.s.s everything.”
“Chaos!” w.a.n.g Teng seemed to have caught something.
Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, dark… He had everything!
He even had the s.p.a.ce talent.
…
“You should already count your luck since you possess the s.p.a.ce talent. This is already very impressive. But if you want to have the time talent, I only have one word for you: Difficult!
“Extremely difficult!
“Close to impossible!”
Round Ball turned serious. It shook its head and continued, “Only the deities can touch time. Ordinary beings won’t be able to feel it at all.
“In the past, there were talents in the universe that possessed the time talent. What do you think happened to them?”
“What?” w.a.n.g Teng played along. He had to admit that Round Ball had ignited his interest.
People born with the time talent must be immensely powerful. But based on Round Ball’s tone, their ending didn’t seem good.
“They were corroded by time. Those who played with time get devoured by it,” Round Ball said after a moment of silence.
“Corroded by time?!” w.a.n.g Teng frowned, contemplating the meaning.
“Someone used his time talent too early, which resulted in his physical body aging drastically because his lifespan wasn’t long enough. In the end, he died an unwilling death. Others drew lessons from their predecessors and focused on building their foundation in the early stage of life. They only started using their time talent after reaching a high stage and gaining a longer lifespan. During their cultivation, they gained many benefits. They were indomitable. However, even martial warriors at the eternal stage are nothing in front of time. Some got devoured by time and disappeared from the physical world. It was as if they had never existed…”

Round Ball explained to w.a.n.g Teng slowly. It seemed to be warning him of the dangers. “s.p.a.ce is the same. It is mysterious. We can only grasp a section of it. There are too many unknowns out there. Since ancient times, many formidable martial warriors have been devoured by s.p.a.ce.
“The people who possessed the time talent were renowned characters too. But none of them escaped death. Thus, don’t rely on your talent too much. Cultivation is still the key.”
w.a.n.g Teng nodded to express his agreement. He felt a little emotional.
His journey had been extremely smooth. He relied on picking attributes to raise his ability. Compared to those talents, he didn’t have to care about such worries.
It felt amazing just thinking about it!
Cough. w.a.n.g Teng pulled his thoughts back and asked, “Does anyone have chaos Force?”
…(⊙_⊙;)…
“What did you say?” Round Ball turned its head abruptly in astonishment. It didn’t understand his question.
“Erm, does anyone ever have the chaos Force?” w.a.n.g Teng repeated. He felt that Round Ball probably heard wrong.
“Why are you asking this?” Round Ball asked him back in shock.
“Nothing. I’m just curious,” w.a.n.g Teng replied casually without changing his expression.
“Curiosity kills the cat!” Round Ball said earnestly. “I have never heard of anyone possessing the chaos Force. Even if there is, we might not be able to reach that level.
“But trust me, chaos Force will probably never appear. It’s even rarer than the time talent. Don’t think too much.”
“Why not?” w.a.n.g Teng was unwilling to give up.
“Do you really have to get to the bottom of it? Alright, let me tell you.” Round Ball snorted in anger. It sat down cross-legged in mid-air in front of w.a.n.g Teng so that it could look him in the eye. Placing its hand on its chin, it continued, “Let’s not talk about being born with this talent. I have never heard of something like that.
“As for acquiring it during cultivation, that’s unrealistic.
“You should know that the chaos Force comprises all the elements I mentioned just now.”
“Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, dark, s.p.a.ce, and time.” w.a.n.g Teng nodded. Then he frowned. “What about ice and poison? Aren’t they counted?”
“Ice and poison are mutated elements. They are not the basic elements.” Round Ball shook its head.
“Please continue,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
“If you want to form the chaos Force, you need to possess all nine basic elements as well as the s.p.a.ce and time talent. The probability of possessing all these Forces and talents is one out of a billion out of a billion. Let’s talk about the dark Force. Besides dark apparitions, normal living creatures won’t be able to control it. Once you delve into the dark, you won’t be able to climb out of the abyss.
“You also need to maintain a balance between all the Forces. There mustn’t be a single mistake or you will explode and die. This is the only way you can merge all the elements… This is as difficult as possessing all the Force and talents. It might even be harder.”
It started to frown as it spoke. It didn’t think that anyone could do it.
“You’re thinking too much. I honestly admire you for having such bold and unrealistic thoughts.” Round Ball rolled its eyes at w.a.n.g Teng. Then, it turned and floated away. “Alright, I’m not going to waste time on you anymore. I have to forge the battle armor. Have a good cultivation. Try to raise your ability as much as you can before our enemies come.”
It disappeared immediately after it finished speaking. It had merged into the main body of the s.p.a.cecraft and could go anywhere it wanted. How convenient.
Impossible? w.a.n.g Teng muttered to himself. Suddenly, he saw a few attribute bubbles floating in the s.p.a.ce in front of him.
He stared at them and released his spiritual power immediately, pulling the attribute bubbles over.

Time*1
…
There were only three bubbles and three points of attributes in total.
However, w.a.n.g Teng still widened his eyes in surprise. His eyeb.a.l.l.s almost popped out of their sockets. He was flabbergasted.
Time attribute!
This was the time attribute that Round Ball said was even more mysterious than s.p.a.ce!
