My Mysterious Left Hand

Chapter 81 A Bizarre Future Time and Space

"Okay," Li Chen replied telepathically, then began to release his physical aura.

In an instant, the sky changed dramatically.

Sitting next to Li Chen, Xiong Erkun immediately felt as if his blood was freezing, and looked over in horror.

In that instant, everyone in the entire Yanhuang Academy noticed that the sky had turned blood red.

However, apart from suddenly feeling depressed, the teachers didn't have any other special feelings.

However, the students on the playground—or rather, the examinees—suddenly felt immense pressure on their bodies due to the enhancement of the formation.

Many people lose their balance and fall down.

But some people suddenly become radiant, their power surging.

"Interesting." Li Chen was somewhat surprised.

"What did Teacher Li Chen see?" Xiong Erkun asked curiously, suppressing the feeling that his blood was about to freeze.

"This Illusionary Spirit Array has transformed my vital energy into other powers."

Li Chen looked at the array barrier in the sky: "This array has the effect of helping ordinary people cleanse their marrow and bones, but it seems that one must have a strong enough willpower to obtain this opportunity."

"Teacher Li Chen is amazing!"

Xiong Erkun exclaimed in surprise, "There shouldn't be many people who know about this function of the Illusionary Spirit Array."

Li Chen smiled but didn't say anything more.

More and more people on the playground collapsed, unable to withstand the invisible pressure.

However, many people suddenly broke out in a thick sweat, which meant they had received a great opportunity.

That meant their physique was directly tempered by the formation, and their marrow was cleansed along with their physical transformation.

While this won't directly improve their cultivation level, it can improve their cultivation aptitude to some extent.

Some people even suddenly glowed, clearly having awakened supernatural abilities.

It seems that the first batch of people who participated in the assessment must have been screened by the higher authorities and are extraordinary in themselves; otherwise, it would be impossible for so many people with superpowers to appear all at once.

Just as he was marveling at it, Li Chen suddenly narrowed his eyes, and the Space-Time Divine Eye was automatically triggered at that moment.

In that instant, he suddenly saw that two minutes later, among the people participating in the assessment on the playground, a young man would suddenly wreak havoc, and in the blink of an eye, a large number of people would die.

But something even stranger happened: Li Chen found that his consciousness seemed to have traveled through time and space, arriving two minutes later.

Without any hesitation, two minutes later in this time and space, he suddenly made his move, and a palm lightning bolt directly turned the young man into ashes.

In a daze, the illusion of the future vanished.

Li Chen looked down at the playground and saw the young man he would kill two minutes later.

The young man did not sense his gaze and continued to keep his eyes closed.

However, Li Chen could tell that the other party was not undergoing the baptism of the Illusionary Spirit Array. This person's talent surpassed that of most people present, and the baptism of the Illusionary Spirit Array was no longer effective against him.

"There's something wrong with this person."

Li Chen focused his mind and sensed it, and soon the Space-Time Divine Eye was automatically activated again.

Then he saw what happened two minutes later.

Two minutes later in the future, the young man suddenly looked up at the stands and met the eyes of the man from two minutes later.

As before, Li Chen discovered that in the future timeline he saw, he once again had his own consciousness, meaning that he was now able to interfere with his future self's behavior.

Without any hesitation, he teleported to the young man's side, ready to interrogate him about what he had done.

However, before he could make a move, the young man suddenly smashed his own head with a palm, and the next moment the future space-time disappeared.

In a daze, Li Chen came back to his senses and squinted at the young man on the playground.

This time, he activated the Eye of Time and Space to look at the information that time had left on that young man.

[He Jinlong, 23 years old, reached a strength of 30,000 jin when he was in the Body Tempering Realm, and is currently in the mid-stage of the Tendon Changing Realm. He possesses a special spacetime law that conceals more information about him.]

He Jinlong? That name sounds familiar.

Li Chen suddenly remembered that when he was cultivating at home, Hu Zhongming and a guy named Chen San interrupted his cultivation and said that he should follow a guy named He Jinlong.

Could the He Jinlong that Hu Zhongming mentioned be this person?

He was somewhat surprised: this person's final strength at the Body Tempering Realm wasn't just ten thousand jin of strength as Hu Zhongming and Chen San had described, but thirty thousand jin.

He actually concealed a force of 20,000 jin; it seems this person has a great secret.

With these thoughts in mind, Li Chen took the initiative to use his Time-Space Divine Eye to look into the future.

However, in the half hour that he had actively foreseen, He Jinlong did not show any unusual behavior.

Or rather, the only unusual thing was that the other party survived to the end and became the only one to be listed on the student list in terms of physical appearance.

Why is the future I see this time completely different from the futures I saw the previous two times?

Li Chen was filled with doubt and surprise: "The future I saw before, the present me, can actually interfere with that future, could it be that—"

A ridiculous guess suddenly popped into his mind: Could it be that the two futures he saw before were real, things that had already happened?

This guess startled him; even he himself found it impossible.

The statement "the future that has already happened" is itself contradictory.

And things unfolded exactly as Li Chen had envisioned for the future.

As time went by, more and more students succumbed to the invisible pressure and collapsed one after another.

In the end, only He Jinlong survived to the end, becoming the only person among nearly 100,000 people present to stand until the very end.

And this guy was the only one to make it onto the student list, just like the future Li Chen had envisioned.

The third assessment will follow immediately.

This test still involves immersing everyone in an illusion, where they must learn a set of techniques. The more they learn within a fixed time, the better their score.

However, this assessment had nothing to do with Li Chen, as he had already concealed his aura.

What Li Chen is most interested in right now is He Jinlong, or rather, the future timeline triggered by He Jinlong.

Finally, at noon, the first entrance examination of Yanhuang Academy came to a successful conclusion.

Unsurprisingly, He Jinlong came in first place with a score far exceeding that of the others.

"It's finally over."

Xiong Erkun stretched and said, "Teacher Li Chen, would you like to go to the cafeteria together?"

"No, thank you." Li Chen stood up and prepared to leave through the boundary marker.

At this moment, Qin Xiaotian walked over and asked, "Teacher Li Chen, would you like to take on a few apprentices?"

"No, I haven't even finished my apprenticeship yet," Li Chen refused directly.

However, Qin Xiaotian did not give up: "Teacher Li Chen, if you are willing to take on a few disciples, I can help you secure a spot to enter the Spirit Realm."

He has a lot of quotas for quickly cultivating strong individuals, and he simply can't do it on his own.

Li Chen's talent is terrifying. He might have some secret scriptures or special cultivation methods.

He had no intention of seizing those secret cultivation methods, but he hoped that Li Chen could use them to help cultivate a group of strong individuals.

"What kind of place is the Spirit Realm?" Li Chen asked, puzzled.

"Hasn't Vice Principal Xiong told you yet?" Qin Xiaotian asked Xiong Erkun.

"Look at my brain—I was so startled by Teacher Li Chen's aura that I forgot about this."

Xiong Erkun quickly explained, "Teacher Li Chen, do you still remember the Gate of Ascension I just told you about?"

"Is that so-called spirit realm related to the gate of ascension?" Li Chen raised an eyebrow.

"That's right. We suspect that the Spirit Realm may very well be the Immortal Realm, or rather, it was the Immortal Realm countless ages ago."

Qin Xiaotian picked up the thread: "That world has a lot of relics from the cultivation era, and it also has native inhabitants."
