I am weak and friendly

Chapter 389 Everything is preordained, right?
Last time, Tang Yiping only glimpsed the outside world through the drones launched by Gao Ming and others.

He saw a "sheep" larger than the Earth nailed to a spear of light, and he saw the [Mother Tree of Primordial Dust] that enveloped the entire world, but it was only a fleeting glimpse, limited to a certain perspective.

But now, he has truly seen what the world is really like.

This is the other side of the world that Tang Yiping knows well. There are no stars, no darkness, only a deep "background".

From here, the universe looks like countless bubbles of all sizes.

These bubbles weren't actually completely separated; they were connected by something. Tang Yiping couldn't describe what they were—were they threads, channels, or something else entirely? It was something beyond human language to describe.

In fact, Tang Yiping was able to understand what was happening before him at this moment because he had once learned a weakness.

【Asymmetric semantic heterogeneity】.

This is the power I learned from Stoka.

Language reshapes thought, and thought determines perception.

Therefore, Tang Yiping perceived everything in front of him.

Tang Yiping turned around and looked back at where he had come from.

There is no Earth, no sun or moon, and not even the universe that Tang Yiping is familiar with.

It was a bunch of bubbles piled up together, big and small, scattered on the back of the [Wrong Path Sheep], just like the foam floating on the bathtub when taking a bath.

In fact, these bubbles were so huge and so far away that Tang Yiping wondered how he could have come from such a far place and how he could see them so clearly.

Then he suddenly realized that this was the power of the Stoka clan.

Distance and size do not seem to be able to be evaluated using real-world logic.

Through those bubbles, Tang Yiping could see the distorted cities and mountains and rivers inside, the earth's crust and mantle, and even the flowing magma and flames...

I even saw intense solar prominences.

These elements of Tang Yiping's world were simply piled together.

"Stoka, what exactly is our world?"

“Woo-chio-chio-chio,” Stoka explained.

Unfortunately, Tang Yiping couldn't understand.

Ah, so "master" is actually "woo-ji".

Tang Yiping thought.

He racked his brains, trying to find a description to clarify what this world really is.

The only description he could think of was that the whole world had been deconstructed and turned into individual assets, like models and textures in a game, haphazardly placed in different folders.

Then, the front end, as needed, calls upon numerous models and assets, piecing them together to create a world that appears complete, seamless, and harmonious on the surface, euphemistically called Earth.

In fact, they may be worlds apart from each other.

On the contrary, on the other side of the world, the "Forked Sheep" is complete, continuous, and spans across space.

If Earth and the "Crossroads Sheep" are opposite sides of each other, then perhaps the "Crossroads Sheep," or the true form of Stokka and Lux, are also such indescribable, ineffable, and twisted beings on Earth's side.

Could this be what we see when looking at Earth from a higher dimension?
At that moment, Tang Yiping took out his phone; he wanted to ask someone.

For example, Master Tang.

Master Tang can probably understand everything he saw.

Then he discovered that his phone had no signal.

He was about to take out his phone to take a picture when he discovered...

Well, this thing didn't even react.

I don't know if it's crashed or if it's the rules of this place, but these silicon-based and electronically constructed gadgets just can't get moving.

Tang Yiping observed from all angles and discovered that the main body of this world was the "Forked Sheep," and the Earth and the space around it manifested as the bubble space attached to it.

It is itself in a "bubble", which forms the boundary of Tang Yiping's "vision". It is filled with many small bubbles, and in the middle of the small bubbles, the endless "background" is filled.

The enormous body of the "Sheep on the Wrong Path," the delicate tendrils of the "Mother Tree of Primordial Dust," the numerous bubble spaces of varying sizes, the even larger "boundaries," and the black-and-white "background" flowing within them—this is the picture of the entire world.

The scene before him reminded Tang Yiping of the legendary Pangu creating the world, a world as chaotic as a chicken egg.

Or perhaps, Chaos in Greek mythology, a boundless, formless, and disordered void and rift.

This world, devoid of black and white, is like the legendary underworld, and the "background" flowing within it is like the River Styx.

At this moment, Tang Yiping couldn't help but think of many legends.

In ancient Greek mythology, the Styx River flows through "chaos," separating "being" from "non-being," "order" from "nothingness," and "life" from "death."

Perhaps this is the dividing line between the "existence" and "non-existence" of the world.

This side and the other side of the bubble space.

Thinking of the River Styx, Tang Yiping suddenly recalled another legend: the River Lethe of ancient Greece, which governed "memory" and "forgetting".

The same applies to Chinese mythology. After death, humans must cross the Naihe Bridge over the River of Oblivion, drink the Meng Po soup, forget everything, and only then can they be reincarnated.

Now, Tang Yiping's mind was filled with the "forgetting" effect of the [Original Dust Mother Tree]. He didn't know whether to think "Holy crap" or just sigh, "There really aren't that many coincidences in the world."

I wonder how many things in human legends originated from here.

It turns out, everything has a root cause.

The question is, where is Hailing City, which is located on the other side?

Tang Yiping turned around, took out the blueprint from behind his back, and asked Lux ​​to help him unfold it again.

After that "multi-dimensional" scene unfolded before Tang Yiping, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Old Master Du is truly a remarkable person!"

This painting and the scene Tang Yiping is currently seeing are not exactly similar, but rather identical.

“So…” Tang Yiping raised his head and looked up at the top of his head.

Then he finally saw his goal.

That was the only thing in his "line of sight" outside of the giant bubble that enveloped the [Crossroads Sheep].

Two spores, one large and one small, are connected to this enormous bubble space.

Small and very cute.

The smaller one was a blur, seemingly not fully developed.

The larger one, on the other hand, vaguely reveals a massive city within it.

Hailing City.

Another city, Hailing.

It turns out... the two worlds are actually so far apart.

It turns out that Earth is inside, and that other world is outside.

It turns out they really are "spores".

It turns out that my idea of ​​"removing the fruit" might actually be feasible.

The question is, how is he supposed to get there?

The distance between Tang Yiping and that spore cannot be described by ordinary "distance"; it flows like the "background" of the River Styx in the underworld.

Hmm... the River Styx?
Tang Yiping suddenly recalled that in ancient Greek mythology, there was a river called the Acheron River. All the dead who wanted to cross the river had to pay a boatman named Charon to ferry them across.

Hmm... Charon.

Tang Yiping sighed.

At that moment, he felt a sense of destiny and powerlessness, as if he were trapped in his fate.
