Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 358 Past and Future
In the eyes of the rest of the East China Sea team, it took the captain nearly two days to strengthen his dual S-level bloodline, but in the eyes of Xu Feng, who was enduring dual S-level ancient blood, the time he experienced was even longer.

Each point of light merged into his soul, as if allowing him to return to the moment he first entered the cycle of reincarnation, and then experience this half of his life in its entirety.

Moreover, the past can be changed.

The power of the 'present' can influence the past self... But after such a thought arose, Xu Feng realized from the depletion of the light of the mind that the past determines the present. Once one stands in the 'present' moment and influences the past, the 'power to maintain the past's invariability' will inevitably cause the present self to bear all the influence.

If the impact is too great, it could even cause you to disappear.

That 'force that maintains the past unchanged' is very powerful. The greatest resistance that Xu Feng currently perceives comes from the multiverse itself and his current 'boss'—the Supreme God. There may be even stronger interference, but a 'weakling' like him who is just coming into contact with time-level abilities cannot even perceive those existences.

"The same person, different experiences will lead to different futures and form different 'me's'."

Xu Feng thought to himself, "Before I can fully grasp time, space, destiny, and myself, maintaining the past as it is is more important than making it seem better."

Completely mastering space and time is very difficult.

Time itself is a very 'illusory' concept.

Every Planck time is a process of orderly and disorderly change of matter. To completely master spacetime, one must completely master all the changes of all matter and spacetime in the entire world in every Planck time.

While simple matter can be simplified using rules, the difficulty of mastering space and time increases dramatically once the soul and mind are involved.

"Changing the past is dangerous, but it is very safe to draw strength from the 'unchanging past'."

In the process of observing the past, Xu Feng was able to grasp information that he had previously overlooked or was unable to analyze due to his limited abilities.

For example, in his first reincarnation world, he possessed the 'Feathered Corpse Demon' bloodline. At that time, he knew what it was but not why, and he hastily gave Tifa this bloodline.

Furthermore, since the boost from this bloodline wasn't significant, Xu Feng was too lazy to return to that world to study it.

Now, reliving that period, I easily recorded all the information about that bloodline, and can readily bestow similar bloodlines upon others.

The gains from the cycle of reincarnation, the abilities strengthened by the main god... all this information from the past was imprinted deep in Xu Feng's mind through repeated experiences, completely transforming into his power.

The power did not increase in the process, but all kinds of potential were fully explored with each cycle.

The subtlety of the Tathagata Palm technique has been elevated once again.

and.

This is a form of compensation and repair.

Xu Feng's cultivation process relied on a large amount of energy to achieve rapid progress. Theoretically, this should not cause too much of a problem, since the cultivation techniques were bestowed by the main god. However, it was still a rapid process and would lack some details. Through repeated practice, he gradually mastered everything in the various techniques.

This is still a form of accumulation.

When the foundation has been rebuilt countless times, the road ahead will be much easier.

Currently, Xu Feng has practiced the Sixteen Contemplations of Pure Land Sutra up to the tenth contemplation.

This experience during the enhancement process gave him confidence that he could cultivate this technique to at least the eleventh level of perfection before the exchange period ended. If he could develop more abilities with this double S bloodline, it wouldn't be impossible to cultivate it to the twelfth or even thirteenth level.

"The limit for returning to the past is the moment of entering the cycle of reincarnation... So, is it possible to step into an even more distant past?"

Xu Feng's heart skipped a beat: "It seems... there's a lot of resistance!"

To be precise, it's impossible!

"It might be possible to try in a separate reincarnation world. In the world of 'The Stranger,' I can travel to an earlier timeline, but this is the God Realm, and the time scale here is vastly different from that in ordinary reincarnation worlds!"

"The past in the cycle of reincarnation does not represent the past of the multiverse, nor can it represent my past..."

As a time traveler, Xu Feng was very aware of his unique circumstances.

Now that this skill, which can influence the past, has been enhanced, I am once again convinced that I am special!
"Ancient blood can also travel to the future... What can this ability do?"

Xu Feng attempted to step into the past: "I can only barely observe information for the next nine days... Is it still because of the Main God Space?"

"As expected, time within the main god system is completely independent!"

"All these abilities can only be developed within the cycle of reincarnation."

“The future we observe is not static… The past influences the present, and the present, in turn, determines the future… In the main god space of the East Sea team, there are very few variables, and the decisive variable is myself. In other words, the 'future' in this small space is entirely controlled by my thoughts!”

Xu Feng couldn't help but chuckle.

Then, he couldn't help but think: "If the size of a certain life form relative to the entire multiverse is like my current size relative to the East Sea team, wouldn't the future of the entire multiverse be in the hands of the other party?"

After having this thought in mind, Xu Feng's smugness about strengthening his dual S-level bloodline immediately disappeared.

"Compared to true powerhouses, I am currently just an insignificant weakling!"

Even though he was still in the process of strengthening the bloodline, Xu Feng had already developed several uses for it in his mind.

The most fundamental use is naturally in combination with the 'Reality Materialization Fantasy Technique'. In the past, he used this skill to 'borrow power from the future' essentially relying on the God's empowerment of the full understanding mode, borrowing a future that was bound to be reached without any unexpected events; now, the so-called 'borrowing power from the future' is no longer just an adjective, but a true acquisition of the power of the future.

The side effects of 'fantasy' bursts are greatly reduced, allowing one to remain in the state of fantasy bursts for an extended period.

Moreover, minor side effects can be mitigated by the Ancient Bloodline, allowing different versions of oneself to bear them at different times, turning major injuries into minor ones, which greatly reduces the difficulty of compensating for side effects.

Secondly, there is the attack that transcends time. Influencing the past from the 'present' will result in a backlash from spacetime, but attacking the future from the 'present' across spacetime is not difficult... This is essentially equivalent to charging up power, but if you 'charge up' enough times, the attack strength will affect the outcome of the battle.

A year's worth of attacks erupted in an instant, an eruption capable of fighting opponents of higher ranks.

After the enhancement was completed, Xu Feng looked up at the main god.

He has upgraded yet another puzzle piece to its highest level.

"The current enhancement is merely the seed of the power of spacetime. Its main ability is simply to travel through spacetime. However, as long as it is developed to a sufficient depth, it is not difficult for such a seed to grow into a towering tree. Traveling through spacetime to the future will naturally become mastering spacetime."

Xu Feng looked at his teammates.

The new recruits have browsed through the main god's database countless times in the past two days, but none of them have made any exchanges. Compared to the previous batch of teammates who needed to be coaxed and threatened, the current teammates are much more obedient. Even if he doesn't say anything, these teammates won't secretly strengthen themselves on their own.

Without him.

These people have become too discerning; they look down on low-level enhancements among the main gods.

The rewards you can get from the main god for a mere C-level side quest are too poor.

It's far inferior to what the captain can offer.

The only thing that made them feel they got good value for their money was the rare and precious ingredients, but consuming rare and precious ingredients without any preparation was extremely inefficient. Most of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth would be wasted, and even the energy that wasn't wasted would be used to extend lifespan... The importance of lifespan for reincarnators was far less than that of power.

"First of all, the next cycle world is Ultraman Tiga."

Before enhancing his teammates, Xu Feng first explained the cycle of reincarnation they would experience in the next battle.

“Tiga?” Shoko said, stroking her chin. “The next reincarnation world is going to be a tokusatsu film. The performance and setting in this kind of special film are completely different. In other words, it’s hard for us to be sure what level of world the main god will send us to!”

Xu Feng wanted to explain more information, but in order not to put pressure on his teammates, he ultimately kept quiet.

While searching for the next cycle of reincarnation, he also glanced at the connection between the main god and the real world... There were five connections.

In other words.

There will be five newcomers in the next round.

The cycle world that the East Sea team is about to experience is a 20-player difficulty level!

In short, the difficulty level has been pushed to the limit!
Xu Feng himself wasn't too worried. Whether he could defeat the BOSS in that world was another matter, but at least keeping his life wasn't a big problem.

Xiangzi analyzed: "The battles in the show are always confined to cities or islands, but the final BOSS Gatanothor is estimated to start with 'exploding the surface'; considering the planet-level home planet Softia in the same world view 'Ultraman Dyna', the power of Gatanothor and Shining Tiga may even reach the level of 'exploding the planet'."

"If the main god maliciously enhances this movie again, that guy's power might become even stronger."

This tokusatsu series is very famous; Shoko had watched it before entering the God Realm.

She couldn't help but click her tongue: "Is this what happens when you defeat the Celestials?"

“Captain Gatanothor will naturally handle monsters like that, but we should be more worried about monsters like ‘Zijera.’” Mei couldn’t help but shrink back and said, “If that monster gets enhanced by the main god, we’ll probably have to go through the helplessness we experienced in ‘The Demon Girl’s Curse’ again.”

The feeling of constantly suppressing desire is truly agonizing.

The little witch couldn't help but get emotional just from reminiscing, and couldn't resist snuggling up to the captain.

The monster Zigela will bloom with mesmerizing Zigela flowers all over the world. According to the show, an ancient civilization 30 million years ago was destroyed by Zigela.

"Zijira... I will prepare protective gear to keep everyone's minds undisturbed," Xu Feng said with a smile.

There's a significant difference in his current level compared to the character in "The Cursed Woman".

Protecting teammates is not difficult.

"Furthermore, I will prepare a spaceship for each of you that can quickly leave the solar system. In theory, Gijera can only affect Earth. Even the final boss Gatanothor can only cover the entire globe with darkness."

“Mental protection items, spaceships…” Sato Yoichi remarked, “If the main god doesn’t change the plot too much, this battle will probably be very easy for us.”

Nan Yelin said excitedly, "Hehe, there seem to be a lot of monsters in the next round: aliens, otherworldly monsters, demonic monsters... and hordes of minions under Gatanothor's command. If we take down those large monsters, we should be able to get quite a few reward points."

This veteran considered herself quite strong, and if the monsters in the next reincarnation world only had the fighting power shown in the show, she was confident that she could use her equipment to slaughter them all.

Furthermore, even relying solely on his extraordinary abilities, he could easily defeat the vast majority of monsters.

In the last interlude, the three veterans did not gain nearly as much from merging with nature as Tifa, but their improvement was still considerable.

"The show also mentions the technology to become a Giant of Light. Can the captain help us become Giants of Light?" Matsuoka Jintaka, on the other hand, doesn't value side quests that much. Monsters that are too easy to kill won't be given many side quests by the main god.

The monsters in Ultraman Tiga are only about fifty meters tall, which is naturally very large in the eyes of ordinary people. However, whether it is the snake monster in Anaconda or the demon in A Chinese Ghost Story, there are many monsters that are much larger than fifty meters.

Of course, the strength of a monster like Gatanothor is certainly not determined solely by its size.

But those monsters that offer a lot of side quests are naturally very dangerous, and are definitely not something that newbies like them can handle.

After recalling some plot points from the drama, he set his sights on the resources of the reincarnation world.

If the monsters are enhanced by the main god, then the corresponding giants of light will naturally become stronger as well. In that world, the technology to become a giant of light is extremely valuable.

Moreover.

From the time he was old enough to understand, the boy dreamed of becoming a giant of light!

After entering the Main God Space, I looked for this bloodline, but unfortunately, it was too expensive! Even the initial enhancement required an A-level side quest.

Now, however, there is a chance to get something for free in the cycle of reincarnation.

Matsuoka Jintaka has complete trust in his captain. If the scientists in the reincarnation world can do this, then his captain can certainly do it too.

Xu Feng's gaze was deep and mysterious: "If there are still materials in that world, I can definitely help you become a giant of light."

In his line of sight, the location where the next cycle of reincarnation would take place... was a little dark.

perhaps……

He began by saying, "The monsters in the next battle will be quite large, so I will prepare some larger combat tools for everyone, mainly including two aspects."

"On the one hand, it is a physical mecha. Theoretically, the most suitable size for fighting in that world is 100 meters tall, which is taller than Ultraman and monsters, and it will not affect movement too much."

"On the other hand, there are the spirits of nature. There are two main types of spirits of nature that can enhance you: one is the spirit of the Thunder Serpent from 'The Ring,' and the other is the spirit of Yin Mountain from 'A Chinese Ghost Story.' One is offensive and the other is defensive. Theoretically, their strength is even higher than that of the mecha."
