A certain sword soul's infinite journey

Chapter 693 Like Water Without Source, Tree Without Root
Lin Yi's preferences obviously did not affect the big brother's decision.

Since the boss has set the place where Lin Yi left the Void Dimension here, it means that the boss intends to let him know this new vest, or... only this vest can answer Lin Yi's full of doubts this time.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi didn't talk nonsense, and directly threw out his own question.

"Boss, I want to know how to comprehend the power of time."

"..."

The old priest fell silent, as if he didn't really want to answer this question, or he simply didn't expect Lin Yi to ask the question so bluntly...

After a moment of silence, the old priest said softly, "This is the confessional."

Lin Yi was slightly taken aback: "So?"

The old priest said seriously: "So, if you really have nothing to confess, then you can leave now."

"..."

Lin Yiman had question marks in his head. If the scene of the old priest admitting his identity was not still vivid in his memory, he would definitely doubt whether he had found the wrong person...

Obviously you set the anchor point of time and space that left the void dimension here, so it’s fine if you don’t answer my question now, but you still want to drive me away?
Lin Yi's eyes widened, and there was a faint silver light in his eyes, and he reconfirmed the identity of the person behind the wall.

Confirmation is correct, the old priest behind the wall is still the same as before...

Lin Yi quickly put away his prying eyes, looked at the wall and opened his mouth again.

But at this moment, the old priest behind the wall suddenly said meaningfully: "Lin Yi, I don't understand, since you want to comprehend the power of time so much, why don't you even want to wait for a few hours? "

"..."

Lin Yi was slightly taken aback.

The old priest said leisurely again: "Go to my study and wait. It's not too late to talk after the church is closed today. You and I have a long life. Time is just running water under our feet. Why rush for a moment?"

Lin Yi's heart moved, and he vaguely felt something inexplicable from the old priest's words.

Just when he had grasped a sliver of inspiration and was about to get to the bottom of it, the old priest spoke again.

"Let's go, as the master of the dimension, you already have a nearly eternal life, time has lost its power on you, but the believers outside the door are different, their life is short and busy, missed today, It will not be so easy to find a suitable opportunity to ask me to confess."

"……I understand."

Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully, turned around and walked towards the curtain door of the confession room.

"Wait a minute." The old priest said suddenly, and after Lin Yi stopped, he said softly, "You can also choose to stay in the confession room and listen to the confession of the believers with me. This may help you."

"..." Lin Yi thought about it carefully, but couldn't think of how these nineteenth-century Western mortals could help him, so he shook his head and declined the old priest's invitation.

"I'd better go to your study and wait!"

"Alright."

The old priest nodded gently, then fell silent immediately, without saying a word.

Lin Yi also took another step, and soon opened the curtain and walked out.

After Lin Yi left, there was still an endless stream of believers entering the confession room. It wasn't until the sun went down that the flow of people entering and leaving the church door gradually decreased.

Lin Yi stood by the window of the priest's study, looking at the peaceful people outside without saying a word.

The little black cat also stood on his shoulders, raised its head to look out the window, and whispered: "Brother, I think this God is a little different from the previous one."

"Oh? What's the difference?"

"I can't tell." The little black cat shook its head, hesitated for a while and then whispered, "It seems... It seems that it is not as scary as before."

"..."

Lin Yi nodded and agreed with the little black cat's judgment.

After he came to the old priest's study, he sat down and thought for a while, and found that the reason why he liked the cardinal's vest with evil spirits was because the image of the old priest was too gentle and too positive.

Compared with this gentle old priest, Lin Yi prefers to trade with a strong man like the cardinal.

Because only in the face of the strong, he can always remain vigilant in the transaction.

But in the face of this old priest who is more like a patriarch than God, Lin Yi is very worried that he will let down his vigilance because of His kindness and love, which will damage the interests he has finally won.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn't help sighing slightly.

The gentleman deceives him with the right way, God has got his lifeline right...

Not long after, the door of the church was finally closed, and the endless crowd disappeared into the street.

Lin Yi silently withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the door of the study.

Soon, there was a sound of regular footsteps coming from far and near. Lin Yi immediately found a chair and sat down. Without seeing any movement from him, the door of the study opened quietly.

The old priest was wearing a neat monk robe, with a warm smile on his old face, he walked into the study without haste, then turned around and closed the door slowly.

"I love experiencing human life."

The old priest turned his back to Lin Yi, and suddenly said something.

Lin Yi frowned, not understanding what the old priest meant by saying this.

The old priest did not say another word, but turned around slowly again, returned to the back of the desk at the speed that a normal old man should have, sat across the desk and looked at him with a gentle smile.

The muscles at the corners of Lin Yi's eyes twitched slightly, and he couldn't help asking, "Boss, I think—"

"I know the doubts in your heart." The old priest raised his hand and made a virtual press, interrupting Lin Yi's words, and then said with a gentle smile: "Since you want to understand the power of time, why don't you experience it yourself? Woolen cloth?"

"...Experience it yourself?"

Lin Yi was slightly taken aback.

The old priest smiled and nodded, and said in a leisurely tone: "I created the human beings in this world, but I did not create the human beings. They are the creations of another universe. I like them and want to understand them, so I let go of all the majesty and power of God, and personally experienced human life as an ordinary human..."

Lin Yi was stunned immediately: "You mean..."

"That's right." The old priest spread his hands and said slyly, "As you think, it's not that I don't want to close the door with a wave of my hand like you, but I can't do it at all. This body doesn't Any special power, he is the body of an ordinary human I created with a pious believer as a template."

Lin Yi frowned and said, "So you didn't know that I would appear outside the church before?"

The old priest nodded: "Yes, although I know your identity and past, this is what He told me. As for why He did this, I am not very clear."

Lin Yi looked at the old priest thoughtfully: "Maybe he thinks you can answer my doubts."

The old priest smiled: "Maybe, but, like his other bodies, I don't have the powerful power to destroy the world, or the infinite knowledge enough to create the world, if you want to get a direct answer from me , then I can only tell you: Sorry, let you down..."

Lin Yi pondered for a while: "Then what advice can you give me?"

The old priest laughed loudly: "Son, I have already told you my only suggestion!"

Lin Yi frowned: "I know you suggested that I experience the power of time, but the question is... how can I experience the power of time? Do I modify the time flow rate in the surrounding space and feel the erosion of time?"

"You're asking the wrong person!" The old priest smiled and shook his head, "I'm just a mortal without power, so it's hard for me to know such things as 'modifying the flow of time' and 'feeling the erosion of time'... But, even It is a mortal like me who has no strength, and he also knows the truth of "the one who knows starts with action, and the one who walks knows with success."

"Although you are powerful, you have only been practicing for 30 to [-] years. You haven't even lived half the life of an ordinary mortal. How can you truly understand the meaning of time?"

"..." Lin Yi stared at the old priest with a gentle smile on his face in a daze. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and bowed in the most sincere manner since he knew this God.

"I understand, thank you for your teaching!"

Different from the previous words of thanks that were more like "happy cooperation", Lin Yi's words came from the heart. He was really convinced by the old priest's words from the perspective of a wise old man.

This concise and simple sentence, like a blow to the head, completely woke him up from his impatience in pursuing the completion of the task.

That's right, Lin Yi has only experienced 30 to [-] years from the beginning of his practice to the present. Even if such a short period of time is put on an ordinary human being, it is only the beginning of a life. Nianhua realizes the power of time, what an overreaching decision!

In the end, the three swords of rules were forged so smoothly that Lin Yi forgot how difficult it is to comprehend the rules.

Thinking about it now, he was able to forge the sword of the holy light because the heaven gave him the authority of the holy light.

He was able to forge the sword of space because space is the most familiar to him. Whether it is the experience of traveling through the world, the sword realm that can be modified at will, or the raptors that can freeze time and space, all of them are given to him. Provides countless opportunities for spatial awareness.

But even with such a powerful help, Lin Yi still spent two years in that void dimension before completely forging the rules of space into a sword of rules.

As for the last sword of the sky, Lin Yi thought about it now, maybe it was a warning to him from somewhere.

Because he snatched the authority of the sky from Ares, not unreservedly given to him by heaven like the authority of the Holy Light. Under this involuntary and zero-foundation situation, even if Lin Yi forged The sword of the sky is still not [-]% mastered.

It was not until a few years later that Lin Yi completed the foundation of the power of the sky and truly took the sword of the sky into his palm.

These experiences all illustrate a simple truth: understanding without a solid foundation is like water without a source and a tree without roots. Although it is often picked and drawn, it will still dry up and wither.

After figuring this out, Lin Yi seemed to drink a large glass of iced Coke in the scorching summer. From his head to his body, from his heart to his soul, he felt extremely refreshed and transparent.

After thanking the old priest for his help, Lin Yi planned to turn around and leave.

But at this moment, the old priest suddenly stopped Lin Yi.

"Wait a moment!"

Lin Yi stopped, turned around suspiciously, and saw that the old priest opened the locker under the desk, and took out a brown leather suitcase from it and put it on the table.

Lin Yi looked at the old priest suspiciously. The old priest chuckled and pushed the suitcase forward with his hands.

"I almost forgot, this is something He entrusted me to give you."

Lin Yi showed a clear face, and immediately stepped forward and grabbed the handle of the brown leather suitcase, but just when he was about to lift the suitcase, a huge divine sense suddenly flowed from the suitcase to Lin Yi's mind.

"Boy, this is the message I left in the box in advance. Being able to see this message means that you have seen my human body. How about it? He should have an answer to your doubts, right?"

"Okay, I know you can't answer, but it doesn't matter if you can't answer it completely, I believe you won't let it go, so I plan to provide you with a chance to earn extra money..."

"A few days ago, when I was fishing in the River of True Spirits, I accidentally captured the coordinates of a naturally generated world. There are some creations that I am very interested in in that world. Sure enough, the naturally generated world is more powerful than the man-made one. Creativity, I plan to entrust you to help me catch a few and study them."

"This suitcase is a container for storing these creations. There is a space in it that is half the size of Australia. I also squeezed a small sun and put some plants and animals in it. It is absolutely suitable for them. Survival environment, so you don't have to worry about their survival."

"By the way, the technology in that world is not well-developed, and there is no extraordinary power that can threaten you. It is just a matter of effort for you, but such a small journey can obtain the equivalent of a broken heart. The reward for the splendid universe soul... How about it, doesn't it sound like a good deal?"

God's bewitching voice echoed in Lin Yi's mind.

Although his tone was interrogative, at the end of the words, the coordinates of that strange world were attached in the form of space rules, obviously confirming that Lin Yi would definitely accept this commission.

In fact it is.

Lin Yi left the DC world this time because he planned to go to another world provided by the awakening mission. For this reason, he has adjusted the time flow rate between the DC world and the sword realm to be infinitely small.

By the way, Lin Yi's current traversal method still uses the sword realm as a transit point, so that he can use the sword realm as a medium to adjust the flow of time between worlds.

Of course, Lin Yi, who has the sword of space, can travel freely without going through the sword realm, but in this case, due to the lack of a transfer station, the flow of time between worlds will appear chaotic. The understanding of the rules of time is still unable to extract the cocoons from this mess.

Therefore, before forging the sword of time, Lin Yi had to travel through the sword realm.

Closer to home, although Lin Yi had already made a decision after receiving this divine thought, Lin Yi still couldn't help complaining in his heart when he saw the way the boss sent the message to him.

He really couldn't figure out why he had to use this way to talk to himself even though the whole world was under the control of this boss...

Sure enough, this evil personality is the master personality of God!
Lin Yi complained in his heart, lifted the brown suitcase on the table in his hand, looked at the smiling old priest and asked, "Do you have anything else to convey to me?"

The old priest shook his head: "Not anymore."

Lin Yi nodded, turned around with the suitcase and walked towards the door of the study, and at the same time said calmly: "Then please tell him, I will accept this task!"
