It was a huge, pure white cross, neither gold nor wood, seemingly made of nature, as if it were some kind of creation that did not belong to the mortal world, radiating a faint holy glow.
The pure white cross and its radiant glow created a pristine space in this world composed entirely of one-dimensional lines, where not a single one-dimensional line ever intersected with the pure white cross.
The area where the pure white cross was located was completely cleared away.
This was a sight Luo Tian had never seen before. In Luo Tian's understanding, these one-dimensional lines contained all sorts of underlying rules and great principles.
The most common one is the cause-and-effect line.
As long as there is a causal relationship between oneself and other things, causal lines will be generated, and even Luo Tian cannot avoid this.
During the time when Luo Tian beat the God of Gods to the point of amnesia, a faint one-dimensional line appeared when the Eye of Horus looked at Luo Tian; that was the line of cause and effect.
Once that faint line solidifies completely, it means that the Eye of Horus has seen Luo Tian, and this is the cause-and-effect connection.
Even the greatest divine power cannot completely obscure this causal connection.
However, on this pure white cross, Luo Tian saw a phenomenon that completely isolated all one-dimensional lines, which was almost beyond his comprehension.
Gazing at the cross, the holy light emanating from it almost made Luo Tian instinctively want to recite its name.
"The all-knowing and all-powerful One!"
Or perhaps we could call Him...God!
Ultimately, Luo Tian's willpower suppressed the desire to recite the name of the Venerable One, but the thought still inevitably flashed through his mind.
The next moment, Luo Tian seemed to sense a change in the pure white cross. A wisp of holy light emanated from the cross and quietly drifted toward his direction.
All the one-dimensional lines began to retreat, and the chaotic and complex lines were cleared away in an instant, leaving a passage leading straight to the heavens.
His soul trembled, and Luo Tian seemed to transform into a fanatical believer, wanting to embrace that sacred radiance. Several twisted and disordered lines quietly appeared around Luo Tian's body.
The next second, the fervor that had risen in Luo Tian's eyes vanished abruptly. The death instinct that had risen in his heart kept Luo Tian rational for a moment. In that instant, Luo Tian made a quick decision. He gripped the Soul-Sucking Strike in his right hand and poured the power of it into the sacred white cross without reservation.
"roll!"
The furious roar, carrying a world-destroying power, tore everything apart. In the entire one-dimensional world of lines, large swathes of one-dimensional lines collapsed. The twisted lines were quickly disintegrated upon contact with the aftershocks, turning into countless zero-dimensional points, and then completely vanished into nothingness.
Above the sky and on the earth, everything constructed by one-dimensional lines is rapidly disappearing, and vaguely, it seems that vast and boundless worlds are collapsing, rules are breaking down, and order is disordering.
This was the first time Luo Tian had displayed his full power in a one-dimensional world.
At the very heart of the attack, the sacred, pure white cross bore the brunt of Luo Tian's all-out strike.
In this world where even the concept of distance can be replaced by a one-dimensional line, Luo Tian's right fist landed on the pure white cross the moment it was thrown.
The holy radiance quickly dimmed, eventually turning into wildly twisted lines that disintegrated and dissipated under the power of the Soul-Sucking Strike.
On the enormous pure white cross, there was no fist mark left by Luo Tian's punch. The power of that soul-draining strike transformed into the Spear of Longinus, the mythical weapon that slays gods, and pierced the pure white cross completely with a strong will to die.
Pure white and dull, bright red blood trickled out from the intersection of the crosses, and the blood-red cracks spread rapidly from the intersection to the entire cross.
The once sacred and pure white cross now carried a strange, blood-red aura, as if it were about to collapse. The cracks on its precarious shape seemed to foreshadow that the pure white cross could crumble at any moment.
Meanwhile, Luo Tian's body seemed to disintegrate rapidly into countless basic particles.
Looking at the shaky, pure white cross, Luo Tian coldly said:
"Is he truly omniscient and omnipotent? I think...maybe not!"
A strange smile appeared on his face, and Luo Tian's body completely disappeared.
The next moment, the six paths of reincarnation within the underworld trembled, and Luo Tian strode out from the cycle of reincarnation, symbolizing the path of heaven and man.
After only a brief pause, countless lines intertwined before Luo Tian's eyes, and with one step, he once again entered a one-dimensional world of lines.
Chapter 352 Don't cause trouble, you'll die! 6000
As the surrounding landscape shifted, Luo Tian stepped back into the one-dimensional world.
Out of the corner of his eye, he could see that the cooldown time of the rebirth skill on the status bar had just finished, which meant that Luo Tian was fully capable of using a full-force attack again.
This is the huge boost brought about by repairing the four cycles of reincarnation. The two-minute cooldown can be completed by simply delaying it slightly within the cycle of reincarnation. There is no need to face the enemy head-on before the cooldown was completed, as was the case when facing the Abyss Will.
Having steadied himself, Luo Tian quickly scanned the world, which was entirely composed of one-dimensional lines, searching for the trace of the pure white cross.
In a world without the concept of spatial distance, Luo Tian enters a different location each time, making it impossible to locate the pure white cross immediately.
After scanning the surrounding space, Luo Tian looked puzzled.
There is no trace of a pure white cross in the entire one-dimensional world.
Even the numerous one-dimensional lines that had shattered when the pure white cross was pierced earlier have now been restored to their original state.
The entire one-dimensional world was just like any other day, seemingly no different from usual, and everything brought about by the pure white cross seemed to be just an illusion.
"Some kind of hallucination at the level of the soul?"
Luo Tian frowned, a hint of uncertainty flashing in his eyes.
But just a moment later, Luo Tian solemnly declared, "It's definitely not an illusion!"
With a sharp gaze sweeping across the entire world, Luo Tian's eyes became incredibly deep, as if reflecting a world of death forged from a great spiritual root.
With the power of death empowering him, Luo Tian seemed to be able to see more in this one-dimensional world.
Then, a ray of light caught Luo Tian's attention.
"Just a smokescreen!"
With a cold laugh, Luo Tian stretched out his right hand, revealing the layers of Soul-Sucking Strike, granting him the ability to easily interfere with the one-dimensional world.
In this world composed of chaotic and complex lines, Luo Tian's palm ignored the distance of time and space and grabbed a one-dimensional line.
It was a one-dimensional line that was constantly twisting and turning, hidden in the entire one-dimensional world without standing out, and seemed no different from other lines.
However, once Luo Tian captures this line, the anomaly on that line will be magnified.
Firstly, although most lines exhibit varying degrees of curvature, it is actually an extremely slow process. However, the line in Luo Tian's hand seems to have been given a certain active definition in the dark, twisting and coiling like a long snake.
What's even more peculiar is that this line can merge into other lines, interfering with and assimilating them.
Although it wasn't particularly fast, the moment Luo Tian caught sight of it, the line almost assimilated half of the sun, which was composed of lines, in the sky above.
Such astonishing characteristics are out of place in the otherwise peaceful world.
At that moment, Luo Tian suddenly recalled the sacred radiance emanating from the pure white cross.
That sacred radiance carried an unknown, fanatical devotion, as if it could assimilate all things in the world.
Even Luo Tian, who possessed a great status, was instantly captivated by the divine radiance and fell into a state of fervent devotion.
Its influence was so great that even Luo Tian felt a chilling fear creeping down his spine.
"Is this the essence of divine glory? Assimilation through this bizarre authority?"
This is truly a bizarre situation!
Luo Tian looked at the line that was trying to drill into his palm, and easily crushed it with a slight exertion of his right hand.
Looking around, Luo Tian tried to find similar one-dimensional lines, but there was no trace of them anywhere he looked.
Luo Tian felt a slight unease.
If the pure white cross is not an illusion, then its sudden disappearance can only mean two things.
The first interpretation is that the pure white cross was a tool used by the omniscient and omnipotent being to test Luo Tian. After Luo Tian's all-out attack damaged it, the pure white cross was taken back by the omniscient and omnipotent being because His purpose had been achieved.
The second possibility is that the pure white cross did not leave, but is still hidden somewhere in the one-dimensional world.
Imagine a pure white cross that appears to have nothing to do with one-dimensional lines, but in fact it is composed of lines and is hidden in a one-dimensional world.
If this is the nature of divine radiance, could the essence of the pure white cross also be the same as divine radiance, capable of transforming itself into a one-dimensional line and concealing itself within the entire world?
As long as it doesn't expose itself like the previous line, even Luo Tian wouldn't be able to fathom the depth of the entire one-dimensional world.
Those trillions upon trillions of lines are enough to make anyone's scalp tingle.
In the second scenario, Luo Tian might be able to force out the pure white cross.
Luo Tian has the ability to destroy one-dimensional lines. As long as he wreaks havoc in the one-dimensional world and destroys everything he sees, there is still a chance of finding the pure white cross.
However, this involves too much, and Luo Tian can sense a close connection between the one-dimensional world and the real world.
In the event of small-scale damage, the self-repair mechanism of the one-dimensional world can minimize the impact on the outside world, but large-scale damage will cause irreparable losses.
If he could guarantee the complete annihilation of the omniscient and omnipotent being, Luo Tian could grit his teeth and accept such a risk.
However, the pure white cross was clearly not the omniscient and omnipotent being, but merely a means of testing Him. A being of greatness could not be so easily suppressed by Luo Tian.
"He still escaped death!"
Luo Tian glanced at the world before him with a hint of regret.
His gaze swept across the surrounding void, and Luo Tian raised a middle finger towards it, his expression disdainful:
"If your test is only this little bit, then you might as well just wait to die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Tian stepped out of the one-dimensional world.
Shortly after Luo Tian left the one-dimensional world, the once peaceful temperature lines began to show signs of restlessness and unease. Lines began to converge from all directions, slowly forming a huge cross.
Then, accompanied by that holy radiance, the pure white cross reappeared in the one-dimensional world.
Strictly speaking, however, the crosses of today should no longer be called pure white crosses.
The cross was covered with blood-red cracks, and at the center, a huge blood-red hole pierced through the entire cross, the blood-red color mixed with pure white, giving it a strange and eerie feel.
The surrounding one-dimensional lines receded, and the blood-red cross stood tall in this one-dimensional world, like a god with outstretched arms embracing the entire world, watching over everything in the one-dimensional world.
The one-dimensional world began to fall into a state of restless unease.
......
Luo Tian stepped out of the one-dimensional world again, his expression containing a hint of disdain.
But just as the rift in the world closed again, Luo Tian's disdain quickly turned into solemnity.
"There's something wrong with that one-dimensional world we just saw!"
Luo Tianwu spoke up.
Upon resurrecting from the cycle of reincarnation and stepping back into the one-dimensional world, Luo Tian was unaware of any problems with that one-dimensional world.
After he crushed the restless line, Luo Tian vaguely felt a sense of oppression as if it came from that one-dimensional world, which made him immediately realize that something was wrong.
When he attacked the pure white cross, he tore apart large sections of the one-dimensional lines, but when he stepped back into the one-dimensional world, everything was intact.
