Electrolux's Theory of Parallel Time and Space
As for the lingering sense of familiarity, Aromatic Silk Beauty gradually discerned something. He repeatedly murmured the name "Aromatic Silk Beauty" in his heart, finding it increasingly profound with each recitation.
Just like him, his name has the word "Qiluo" in it.
Although the physical appearances of the two Immortal Herb were completely different, he had a vague intuition that their functions and talents as Immortal Herb were the same.
He remained silent for a long time before finally speaking with a somewhat complicated expression, "My true form is the Aromatic Silk Beauty."
Upon hearing Youyou, the large pink flower trembled in surprise, its petals trembling. Its voice held undisguised delight. "Aromatic Silk Beauty? Our names are so similar!"
She seemed very excited about the discovery; her petals opened and closed, causing the whole flower to tremble slightly.
But Aromatic Silk Beauty didn't respond to her words. She just hovered silently in mid-air, her eyes filled with an extremely complex expression.
A moment later, he transmitted his voice into Huo Yuhao's Spirit Sea, saying, "Yuhao, I feel that she should be me. The resonance of the Heart of Qiluo cannot be wrong."
"But she's completely different from me, it's such a strange feeling."
Huo Yuhao also somewhat confused, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure out what was going on.
Just as he was racking his brains trying to figure it out, Electrolux's aged voice suddenly came from the depths of his Spirit Sea.
"Actually, there's nothing you can't figure out. The reason you're confused is simply because you're always thinking about things from the perspective of a single world."
"Looking at it from another angle, the answer is actually quite simple: they are just two parallel worlds."
These words immediately attracted the attention of Huo Yuhao and all the Spirit Soul in the Spirit Sea.
Huo Yuhao quickly pressed on, "Teacher, what do you mean by parallel worlds?"
Electrolux chuckled softly. "I told you before that there are countless planes in this world."
"The Shengmo Continent where I once lived, and this Douluo Continent where I am now, are both real planes that exist in the vast universe. This can be considered a spatial concept."
He paused, then continued, "However, compared to space, time is far more mysterious."
Space can be torn apart, folded, and pierced by brute force by the strong, but time is different.
"Time is a one-way flowing river, irreversible, unstoppable, and unrepeatable—at least within the legal systems I know of."
"Your ability to traverse ten thousand years of time, traveling between two completely different eras, is something even the supreme beings of the Divine Realm find difficult to accomplish."
At this point, Electrolux's gaze fell on Huo Yuhao, and his tone became more serious. "Actually, over the years, you should have noticed some clues to some extent."
"In this world ten thousand years ago, you have successfully altered the original trajectory of your destiny."
"But when you return to the World Ten Thousand Years Later, the legends about the Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao recorded in those history books will never change because of what you did here."
"Those legends continue to exist along their original paths, as if all the efforts you made ten thousand years ago left no trace on the timeline ten thousand years later."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao's pupils contracted slightly. He had indeed noticed this matter, but he hadn't given it much thought before.
Seeing that he seemed to understand, Electrolux stopped being mysterious and said directly, "This is enough to show that the two Douluo Continent ten thousand years ago and ten thousand years later are not the past and future on the same timeline, but two independent parallel worlds that operate independently."
"What you've traversed isn't time itself, but rather the barrier between two parallel world lines that even the gods cannot cross."
"Every time you disappear from World Ten Thousand Years Later, you are not returning to the past of your own world, but entering another parallel universe that is highly similar to it, yet not entirely the same."
"These two worlds share roughly the same historical context and the fates of their figures, but they diverge in countless minute details, like two branches that have split off from the same trunk. They seem to share the same origin, but in reality, they grow independently and do not affect each other."
After Electrolux's clear and concise explanation, Huo Yuhao finally understood what a parallel world was.
Finally, Electrolux brought the topic back to the present, his tone still as nonchalant as ever. "Since they are two parallel worlds, it's only natural that there are differences."
He looked at the Aromatic Silk Beauty and said, "There's nothing to be confused about. In the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well of this world, the Aromatic Silk Beauty that grows by the lake."
"And in the world you came from, the one rooted in the same spot was you Aromatic Silk Beauty."
"You could be considered ' Heterotopic Identical Body ' from parallel worlds, like a seed that took root and sprouted in two different worlds, growing into two similar but different flowers."
After Electrolux finished explaining his theory of parallel universes, Huo Yuhao remained silent for a moment before readily accepting it.
Although this explanation overturned his long-held understanding of time travel, it was the only answer that could seamlessly connect all the contradictions and confusions.
Just moments ago, Aromatic Silk Beauty had been looking completely bewildered and confused, but now her expression had finally returned to normal.
However, when he recalled Youyou's clear, melodious, and innocent female voice, he still felt a little awkward.
Seeing the purple figure, whose aura was extremely similar to her own, suddenly disappear, Youyou became somewhat anxious.
She swayed the petals, the pink fragrance swirling in the air, and her clear female voice carried undisguised regret and urgency. "Oh, why did you leave?"
She looked at Huo Yuhao and said, "I've been here for so many years, and I've never met Immortal Herb that looks so much like me. Can you let her come out and say a few more words to me?"
Aromatic Silk Beauty never reappeared. Since he no longer existed in this world, his sense of belonging to this "home" instantly diminished.
Looking at the Aromatic Silk Beauty that emitted a dreamlike pink glow, Huo Yuhao stated his purpose directly. "I came for the Immortal Herb."
Upon hearing Youyou, Youyou turned her attention back to the human boy in front of her. She gently shook her petals and said, "Since you were able to pass through the Poison Array and enter this Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well unharmed, you can be considered a destined person. According to the rules, as long as you pass the test, you can take away a Immortal Herb."
"One plant?"
Huo Yuhao frowned slightly. In his plan, he was to take away at least several Immortal Herb from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well this time.
Moreover, he remembered very clearly that although the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was controlled by the Tang Sect ten thousand years later, and the Tang Sect stipulated that only a certain amount of Immortal Herb could be taken within a certain period of time in order to prevent the depletion of resources, he had never heard of any test required.
Why are there so many more rules and regulations now that we've reached ten thousand years ago?
