The Great Ruler wanted to lie down but was thrown into the Spirit Road.

"You should know about that guy's deeds, right? How did he cultivate before?" Wu Ling asked, looking at Qing He who was sitting cross-legged to the side.

During this time, news of Yun Mo had already spread throughout the Martial Spirit Academy.

Almost everyone knew that a new student at the Transformation Realm had arrived at the Spirit Academy, and that he had swept through everyone inside the Martial Arts Tower on his first visit.

His name now shines brightest on the records list of the Martial Arts Tower, which makes some senior students feel ashamed.

Some of them are still at the Fusion Realm level, but this new student named Yun Mo is already at the Transformation Realm level, and his strength is so formidable. How will he be able to demonstrate his status when facing the other new students?

Qinghe shrugged. Yunmo had been like this at Qingmu Academy before, and he was used to it. However, after glancing at Wu Ling, he still said, "Maybe that's just his talent. By the way, are you interested in trying out the Martial Arts Tower? I think we should also go there to hone our skills."

"The Martial Arts Tower... it's not impossible. If we go in, we should be at the Fusion Realm level, which is the second level. It's easy to climb the rankings, but it's a bit difficult to reach the very top."

Of course, unless your skill level is truly exceptional, you'll need a bit of luck.

"Luck? You mean, you just happened to be matched with some weaker players?"

"No, the Martial Arts Tower is very fair. On average, the strength of each region is about the same. What I mean by luck is that others expend a lot of energy while you expend very little, so you can reap the benefits in the end. That way, you might be able to defeat more people."

However, if you're unlucky, after defeating ten or so people, you might find that there aren't many left in that area, and you won't have a chance to climb the rankings.

"There's no need to worry about these things. Just try to rely on your own strength and see how far you can go. While you're at it, earn some Battle Spirit Points, and then you can cultivate in seclusion in the Martial Arts Tower for a while." Qinghe stood up and said to the Martial Spirit.

"Uh... okay, I guess Yun Mo hasn't shown up for so long, he must be cultivating in seclusion in the Martial Arts Tower. We can't let him leave us too far behind."

……

Yun Mo was indeed cultivating in seclusion inside the Martial Arts Tower, just as they had said.

After reaching the third level of the rankings, he received a decent reward. In addition to the people he defeated and the battle spirit points he automatically acquired during this period, he obtained a total of nearly six thousand battle spirit points.

However, while 6,000 Battle Spirit Points seemed like a good amount, it was only enough for him to stay on the ninth floor for six days. This led him to re-enter the war zone to try and obtain more Battle Spirit Points.

He also tried to directly enter the floors of the Tongtian Realm for trials, but the results were not very good. In terms of time, the efficiency of obtaining battle spirit points was only about the same as that of the third floor.

Although he could defeat even a peak Tongtian Realm expert, it would still take some time, and the spiritual energy in his body would be depleted even more, making the subsequent battles only slower and slower.

After weighing the options, I still chose the third floor of the Martial Arts Tower as the place to earn Battle Spirit Points.

With over 10,000 Battle Spirit Points in hand, he entered the ninth floor of the Martial Arts Tower.

"So this is the highest point of the Martial Arts Tower? It truly lives up to its reputation." Yun Mo felt the rich laws of heaven and earth and spiritual energy here, and sincerely praised it.

If he were to cultivate here for an extended period, someone of his level would indeed experience a significant improvement.

"I just don't know what makes this person in front of me different from me." Yun Mo narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the person who looked exactly like him not far away.

This was the first time he had ever seen such a bizarre scene, and the first time he had ever carefully examined himself from an outsider's perspective.

The person opposite him had the same face, the same robe, and even the expression in his eyes and the aura he exuded while standing in the void were almost identical.

But the power emanating from the person opposite him made Yun Mo's expression turn serious. This was the most dangerous person he had ever encountered, and the feeling of facing him was not pleasant.

"boom……"

The two finally started fighting. Space-Time Techniques, Imperial Techniques, Killing Qi, and other readily available spiritual techniques erupted at this moment, flying everywhere.

Yun Mo used the spacetime technique to fight back, and his opponent retaliated in kind. This was the first time Yun Mo had ever felt how troublesome the spacetime technique was.

Whenever his palm strikes towards his opponent, the opponent will freeze the force with space and then use the mystery of time to dissolve it completely.

Their strength was exactly the same, and their fighting habits were also similar—both were calm, peaceful, and domineering.

"Buzz!"

When the two palms collided, the earth-shattering sound was no longer produced; instead, they completely dissipated. Clearly, the force of the palm strikes was worn away by time in an instant, with not a trace of power leaking out.

The two figures flickered in the sky without stopping for a moment.

Their battle caused fragments of time and space to scatter and permeate the universe.

"call……"

Another collision, and the two separated. At this moment, Yun Mo's face gradually turned pale, and his long hair, which was originally tied up, also turned somewhat gray.

The profound mystery of decay and corruption between them, imbued with their essence, is far from being easily suppressed.

But after an unknown period of collision, Yun Mo seemed to fall into a kind of epiphany. He wandered through fragments of time and space, asking himself questions.

"What is spacetime in this world?" Yun Mo murmured to himself as he felt the dissolving power between the two forces.

Spacetime is a combination of time and space, vast and ethereal, mysterious and alluring.

Time is both fleeting and eternal. In other words, the river of time flows on forever. It is constant and cannot be turned back. However, it also needs space as its boundary; otherwise, all time would be nothing but emptiness and ephemeral.

They are like a chain with rules, from top to bottom, without any forks. So, under certain conditions, can the spacetime of the next moment be determined?

In Buddhism, cause and effect are explained; in Taoism, karma is explained. The effect of this moment is formed by the accumulation of countless causes in the past, and then the cycle repeats itself. The effect of this moment becomes the cause for the future.

If a cause is lost, will the subsequent effect change?

There are countless paths to the same destination, and time and space seem to be the same. The time and space of this moment are a continuation of the time and space of the previous moment. So, can it also be divided and defined as each independent existence according to one's thoughts?

If Yun Mo had not come to the Martial Spirit Academy, he would certainly not be in this space-time. Everything that happened before is affecting his current situation.

If spacetime can be defined, then is it possible to separate and dissolve past spacetime, thus altering the subsequent outcomes? It would be like taking a portion of a top-down chain of rules.

What kind of changes will occur?

That would be tantamount to severing its very foundation.

By dividing the opponent's foundation with space and causing it to wither and decay with time, isn't this the very essence of his use of space and time? But what if it were applied to the timeline of a single person? What would the result be?

Just like Yun Mo himself, his current realm is the Transformation Realm, but without the previous accumulation of power, how could he have reached this level?

If that part of the power is defined by space and withered by time, will he still have the strength of the Transformation Realm?

The black and white light in Yun Mo's eyes grew brighter and brighter. In the fight against himself, every bit of his power was gradually being dissolved, and even his injuries were getting worse. But he paid no attention to it, because in his heart, his own understanding of space and time was slowly being established.
