Chapter 639 625: Swimming Fish and Bait

Within the illusion of the river of time, Wang Xuan gazed at the scenes unfolding before him.

Under the influence of the mental power of the Abyssal Master, the entirety of Yuzhang City became a massive vortex, engulfing both Immortal Martial Mountain and Celestial Sword Mountain.

This Alien Race Immortal was like a chess player, creating a tragic event where Sword Immortal Zhao Hao killed the Hall Master of the Immortal Martial Combat Hall on the chessboard that was Yuzhang City, based on the personalities and abilities of various figures, guided by his spirit.

The pride of Zhao Hao at that time, the grief of Chen Qingniu, everything entered Wang Xuan's eyes.

And when these events occurred, Wang Xuan discovered that the Abyssal Master was actually nearby, standing in deep space, admiring his masterpiece.

He watched as Immortal Martial Mountain and Celestial Sword Mountain competed for the Realm Gate, as True Immortal He Fang quarreled with Fangshan Sword Master's lineage, as Wang Xuan stepped onto new levels in his life.

The Abyssal Master curiously scrutinized Wang Xuan, watching him seek Source Power and rapidly improve his cultivation level after stimulating some unknown treasure.

Even as a Peak Immortal, he achieved nothing even after employing various Great Divine Techniques to investigate and interfere, unable to figure out what force isolated time and distorted space.

Since then, the Abyssal Master set his sights on Wang Xuan.

Standing within the illusion of the river of time, Wang Xuan also observed the Abyssal Master, searching for his traces, closely watching his every move.

In the long river of history, this Alien Race Immortal was like a ferocious giant crocodile, concealing itself within Earth Civilization, secretly stirring up trouble!

"So it was your handiwork, targeting me along with the Vice Hall Master and his son."

"Your influence was also present in the hunting encounter of the Greed Wolf Squad in Siberia."

"The incident with Lin Cheng's father encountering the Spirit Race was indeed your scheme."

Apart from himself, Wang Xuan even saw the Abyssal Master trap five prodigies with the potential to reach the Void Realm, personally manufacturing two tragic cases involving Void Cultivators.

How are these scenes any different from the fall of the Little Martial God back then?

The Sect Leader of Immortal Martial Mountain, Hong Xuanji, proclaimed himself the Martial God, while his young disciple Yue Yi, only a little over a hundred years old, reached the Void Realm with his cultivation level, earning the title of Little Martial God. Yet, he fell due to the Alien Race's scheming.

Afterward, a bit of Yue Yi's True Spirit reincarnated as Yue Yiyi.

This conspiracy not only cost Immortal Martial Mountain a promising Little Martial God but also estranged Hong Xuanji from his junior disciple Wu Jiu—the Insomniac Taoist.

"This matter might also be related to the Abyssal Master," Wang Xuan deeply suspected, seeing the shadow of the Abyssal Master in the tragic incident of the Little Martial God back then.

This Alien with immensely powerful mental abilities, using the spirits of living beings as a medium, could be omnipresent and act without leaving a trace.

Even in Earth Civilization's stronghold, home to numerous Immortals, numerous major cases were committed.

"The recent largest plot of the Abyssal Master is the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest, which took him an incredibly long time to occupy." Wang Xuan followed the Abyssal Master's figure, observing how much effort he had invested in this.

Unfortunately, after Wang Xuan exposed the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest conspiracy, it was thoroughly crushed by Earth Civilization, and even the Abyssal Master's clone was executed.

In the tributary of the river of time belonging to Earth Civilization, Wang Xuan diligently searched, and before long, he found the Abyssal Master again.

After one clone perished, he sent another, returning to Earth Civilization in a short time.

This time, his gaze was fixed directly on Wang Xuan!

Wang Xuan examined the Abyssal Master, his thoughts unending: this Abyssal Master's curiosity towards me is so intense, even laying plans for many years; he must have an ulterior motive.

Is he not taking action against me simply because he hasn't found an appropriate opportunity, or is he wary of Immortal Martial Mountain?

No, with the Abyssal Master's cunning, he must have left some hidden means on me!

"If I were the Abyssal Master, I might harvest the entirety of the fruit at the most succulent and complacent moment of the prey!"

If the Abyssal Master indeed left some trump card on me, then when I achieve the Tao Fruit would be when the Abyssal Master harvests the Tao Fruit and seizes the Tower of Space-Time!

Upon thinking this, Wang Xuan's expression grew more solemn.

"Would the cultivation of All Things Born, Three Elements Great Method, Primordial Spirit Sword Embryo, Time Rule, Creation Rules, Divine Beast Bloodline, etc., have an effect?"

"Or perhaps, hoping the supreme power of the Tower of Space-Time can protect me from the Abyssal Master's deadly assault?"

Wang Xuan's thoughts were vast, knowing the time left by the opponent would not be much; once he reached the Void Realm, he would have the power to contend with Immortals.

Perhaps the moment when he advances to the Void Realm would also be when his greatest crisis strikes!

"Abyssal Master, you may treat me as a swimming fish, but who said I couldn't use myself as bait to catch you, the giant crocodile?"

In an instant, Wang Xuan conceived of a perfect place for advancement! A place that could bury this Alien Immortal—Abyssal Master!

After much thought, he finally planned everything out.

Wang Xuan returned to his own timeline, continuing to sort out his time and causal links, without concerning himself further with the Abyssal Master's affairs.

Who knows how much time passed as he braved the wash of the river of time, until Wang Xuan finally sorted out his timeline and causal line.

His eyes looked towards the future.

Unlike the determined past, the future was uncertain.

The future contained a trend, and countless possibilities.

Before established facts came to be, no one could be certain of what the future held; one could only see many possibilities.

In Wang Xuan's eyes, as the river of time flowed to the "now," there emerged a myriad of paths ahead.

Every time the river of time surged forward a segment, the previous countless possibilities turned to foam, disappearing without a trace. And simultaneously appearing were countless new future possibilities.

"The grand momentum of heaven and earth, the swimming big fish, the collective will, the direction of civilization..."

Wang Xuan used the Path of Time to drive the Tower of Space-Time, consuming infinite energy to "foresee the future" as much as possible!

Compared to using the "foreseeing the future" divine technique himself, driving the Tower of Space-Time to take a glance at the future in the river of time's direction was vastly more difficult.

Similarly, the enormous price he paid allowed him to see a much greater range of future possibilities!

Turning possibilities into high probabilities!

In the river of time, countless "Wang Xuans" were striving to advance to the Void Realm, whether by secluding themselves in cultivation, bravely fighting in battles, seeking opportunities, or walking the world to comprehend the heavens and earth.

In these timelines, many major events unfolded naturally.

After Immortal Martial Mountain promoted reforms, it began to conduct trials on the land of Divine Land, recruiting a hundred times more disciples than before, giving hope to billions of people lacking cultivation resources.

In the process of promoting reforms, several exceptional talents emerged, and due to the chaos caused by the Alien Race, several tragic incidents happened!

The second matter was the union of Earth Civilization with the Four Realms Alliance, forming the Five Realms Alliance to jointly develop numerous Realm Gate resources.

After this seemingly cooperative effort began, numerous strong figures and prodigies from the Four Realms entered Earth, covertly challenging and suppressing various forces there, continuously exploring the bottom line of the Realm Gates to seek greater benefits.

Among them were several individuals who appeared on the land of Divine Land, causing a significant impact.

The third thing that caught Wang Xuan's attention was a technology forum within Earth Civilization, where each forum produced technology beyond people's imagination.

These technological products were almost epoch-making avant-garde products, leading the trend of the future.

"In these futures, I advance smoothly to the Super Star Position, with many methods and various results in advancing to the Void Realm."

"Several Tao Fruits I've cultivated are unsatisfactory, yet some exceed expectations and are worth pursuing."

"After I enter the Void Realm, time and space become turbulent, and a few thick time-space lines even break directly, indicating an unforeseen event."

Wang Xuan recognized that having information on these futures was immensely useful to him, helping him to cultivate more effectively by selecting the best methods and strongest Tao Fruits.

As for the crises following the advancement to the Void, he has his own plans, ready to see whether the Abyssal Master's techniques surpass his or not!

After much time, the weary Wang Xuan put away the Tower of Space-Time, departed from the river of time, and reappeared before his master He Fang, wife Lin Cheng, and others.

With each breath, endless starlight surged towards him, and utilizing the Chaos Stone's pulling ability, Wang Xuan refined a large amount of energy to recover quickly.

Exhaling, Wang Xuan opened his eyes to look at everyone.

At this moment, beyond Lin Cheng, Wang Tiantian, Hongze, and others, even He Fang was curious about what Wang Xuan had seen in the river of time.

If given the chance to know the future, who wouldn't be curious, for it was a power that transcended reality.

At this moment, they had the opportunity to know their own future.
