Above the gray fog

Time passed like flowing water, hundreds of years after hundreds of years, Lin Shan was trapped in a cycle.

For hundreds of years, he has been doing the same thing.

He kept shuttling between various gathering places, absorbing spiritual elements and improving the level of the puppet.

For Lin Shan, hundreds of years were just a blink of an eye. Although he could endure loneliness, the inexplicable emptiness in his heart could not be shaken off.

Lin Shan continued to move forward. Now he was familiar with everything.

After experiencing the events hundreds of years ago, he was no longer greedy.

Every time he arrived at a new gathering place, he only stayed for one or two days and left in a hurry without any nostalgia.

Day after day, year after year, Lin Shan had long forgotten how time passed.

The progress of the puppet became a new unit of time in his perception.

He calculated in his mind that if he continued to absorb at this speed, it would take at least a thousand years for the puppet to be promoted to Sequence 2.

Just as Lin Shan mechanically repeated this endless cycle, a familiar information wave suddenly came.

It was the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit took the initiative to contact him.

"My body, I am the Holy Spirit."

The voice of the Holy Spirit sounded in Lin Shan's heart.

Lin Shan did not reply. This was a message fragment similar to a message.

Two seconds later, the voice of the Holy Spirit continued to sound.

"I have been protecting those small four-dimensional lives in the wild. Over the past few hundred years, they have grown well and regarded me as their new guardian. However, I have encountered some troubles recently."

"Just a few days ago, I found an enemy called nightmare by the four-dimensional small life. It is very powerful. It is a four-dimensional life of sequence 1 or even sequence 0, specializing in devouring other weak four-dimensional life."

"If you are interested, you can come here. I built a place of faith in a nearby gathering place. You can come directly through the kingdom of heaven. Before you come, don't forget to build a small place of faith near you to facilitate the return trip."

"If you are busy, don't come. I can't beat that nightmare. It may not take long to go back."

The message ended here.

Plop, plop, plop.

Lin Shan felt the direct and powerful heartbeat for the first time in a long time.

Sequence 1 or even sequence 0 four-dimensional life, which will save him tens of thousands of years of strengthening time!

Lin Shan took a deep breath, and a series of clones emerged from his body, flying to the edge of the gathering place like a meteor, to establish a place of faith for him.

And Lin Shan's body was teleported through the kingdom of heaven to the place of faith established by the Holy Spirit.

As soon as he descended, Lin Shan got in touch with the Holy Spirit, and the consciousness of the two merged into one.

Only when the distance is far, the Holy Spirit will give birth to an independent consciousness.

After receiving the memory of the Holy Spirit, Lin Shan already understood the whole story.

His eyes swept around, and here was a quiet forest. The four-dimensional little lives were playing in the forest, passing through time and space, appearing and disappearing from time to time, looking carefree.

In this tranquility, Lin Shan felt a faint threat.

This threat came from afar, from that dark corner, it was the breath of nightmare.

It was hidden in the dark of time and space, staring coldly at Lin Shan, or rather, staring at these little four-dimensional lives.

The nightmare had attacked several times before, but was blocked by the Holy Spirit.

Perhaps it felt that the Holy Spirit had some strength, so it had been hovering around, waiting for the best opportunity.

With the help of the puppet's power, Lin Shan's eyes easily penetrated time and space, staring at the powerful four-dimensional life hiding in the dark of time and space.

Unlike his puppet, the four-dimensional life exuded dark smoke all over its body, and had an overall shape, like a mealworm growing in different time periods.

Lin Shan's fingers trembled slightly, not because of fear, but because of excitement.

"Can't let it run away."

The positions of prey and hunter will be exchanged from now on.

Without any hesitation, Lin Shan took the lead.

His eyes instantly became hot, and a dazzling energy light blade condensed in his hand, with the power to tear time and space, slashing towards the direction of nightmare.

The nightmare sensed the attack and emerged from the darkness, and the whole space was shocked.

Its shape was like a black mist, sometimes condensed into a solid, and sometimes dispersed into countless tiny particles.

When the light blade was about to hit the nightmare, it was instantly particleized, allowing the light blade to penetrate directly.

Nightmare let out a strange roar, and the entire space was distorted.

Nightmare's roar echoed in Lin Shan's ears, and the space around him was changing rapidly.

Time was like a crumpled piece of paper, pulled arbitrarily and twisted into strange shapes.

The concepts of time and space became blurred, as if all dimensions were intertwined and merged at this moment.

The next moment, Lin Shan felt that the space he was in was forcibly pulled into countless fragments.

Each fragment itself was like a sharp blade, trying to tear him into pieces.

His body kept flashing in these fragments, trying to keep his body intact.

Suddenly, Lin Shan's perception touched a hard object.

The space in front seemed to be the end, and all paths were blocked.

He was trapped in a cage made of time fragments. It felt like a two-dimensional life walking on paper, which was torn apart in all directions up, down, left and right.

Lin Shan immediately opened his eyes and saw the fragments of time and space around him floating like glass fragments.

The time and space he was in was completely separated and became an independent existence.

And the nightmare existed in all the fragments.

Lin Shan tried to use his mental power to explore the surroundings, but every time he explored, he would be bounced back, as if these time fragments had their own consciousness and refused any external interference.

Lin Shan was a little irritated. He did not lose in strength, but in the control of time and space. Four-dimensional life was born with the ultimate control of time and space. If he wanted to interfere with time and space, he had to use perception and mental power to pry, which was inherently slower than the other party.

Although the puppet could do the same as the nightmare, the puppet was only at the strength of Sequence 3 now, and taking it out was completely a dish for the other party.

Thinking of this, Lin Shan had black gas burning on his body, and the strong mental power condensed in his palm.

He condensed all the strength of his body on his fist, and used "infinity" to drive "black".

Black burst out from his fist, forming an invisible shock wave.

In an instant, the entire cage began to collapse, and the time fragments around it cracked like glass and collapsed in the endless void.

Lin Shan's body was sucked into a nothingness of chaos.

No, this is not chaos.

Lin Shan felt an invisible pressure around him, as if the whole world was squeezing his body crazily.

His body was gradually compressed, his bones and muscles made terrible creaking sounds, and his body was gradually compressed from a complete form into a meat ball.

The Time Lance took the initiative to float out of the inner world to maintain the last bit of "size" for Lin Shan, so that he would not be crushed into nothingness by the pressure.
