Crossing the River of Time, Thoughts Reaching Days Gone By; Seeking the Self, Sword Pointing at Cangsheng

What was Spacetime Leap? Before encountering Sui Yin, Xu Xiaoshou had believed that Spacetime Leap was roughly the first realm of the Illusion Sword Technique.

Now, he felt that kind of Spacetime Leap ought to be called "spatial leap" instead.

After all, it had not truly realized the concept of "temporal leap."

Of course, those who had mastered this sword technique could indeed achieve a brief crossing on the temporal dimension by compressing space.

But for one uninvolved with the Way of Time, a few breaths were likely the limit.

To achieve a genuine "temporal leap," like Sui Yin had back then—forcefully returning within Flower World to the Relics of the Gods from over a month ago, planting a technique in the past and thereby changing future causality—was simply as difficult as ascending to heaven! "Difficult?"

To outsiders, it naturally was.

But after searching his own heart, Xu Xiaoshou no longer thought so.

With will as the driving force, space as the means, supplemented by the Time Dao Disc, and then using Hidden Pain to execute Spacetime Leap, he would replicate Sui Yin's technique from back then.

This sword was no longer the Illusion Sword Technique.

It was pure technique—Xu Xiaoshou forcibly sending a thread of his consciousness into the past spacetime of this very place.

"Go!"

Without the slightest hesitation, he slashed out with his sword.

He did so with the thought that, even if the attempt failed, he would merely lose a wisp of divine consciousness, which he could recover after a short period of rest.

Hidden Pain swept through the air.

That thread of will seemed to melt
