Meaningless Meaning

The blood in my body surged like a tidal wave, clearing away all feelings of despair and panic.

Lin Fan breathing heavily as he stared at the eyeball in front of him. A sense of foreboding washed over him: if he didn't take the eyeball, something terrifying would happen.

Lu Li reached out and caught the glasses in front of him, saying softly, "Deal."

Soon, Lu Li's Time Clone disappeared. You Qiying heard footsteps outside the tower, gritted her teeth, and jumped out of the window into Green Water Chestnut Lake.

Then, Lu Li arrived at the same time, slowly disappeared. Even before the Black Face vanished, Lin Fan could still feel the mocking look in the other's eyes.

Lu Li squinted as he arrived at the Lakeside Tower. Seeing the splash of water You Qiying jumped down, he informed the others via communicator and then jumped into Green Water Chestnut Lake as well.

Lin Fan could confirm that Lu Li had seen him, but he seemed to have no intention of talking to him at all.

"We're currently in the past, and Lu Li is traveling through the past," Lin Fan thought. "The time distortion below is the best time for communication."

Having figured this out, Lin Fan looked at the eyeball in front of him, and that terrifying feeling returned. Lin Fan couldn't help but pick up the eyeball and jump into Green Water Chestnut Lake with Lu Li, activating his basic Time Acceleration ability.

"That stone door, has the light barrier not been established yet?" Following the life force in front of him, Lin Fan arrived at a stone door at the bottom of the lake and entered without hesitation.

Looking around, everything seemed gray and hazy, and nothing could be seen clearly. There were some buildings standing around that were not clearly visible, but when you didn't look at them, you always felt that a pair of eyes were emerging from those buildings, scrutinizing you.

"The headquarters of the Ring of Time and Space is located in this space." Lin Fan dared not move rashly. This spacetime was completely chaotic. As time changed, or if you changed your location, you would arrive in another place. Various dangerous things once existed here, and it was said that an Evil God also roamed in it.

Lin Fan felt constantly watched, and a faint sense of danger lingered, sometimes near, sometimes far, making him tremble with fear. All these feelings were constantly challenging Lin Fan's nerves.

If an ordinary person were here, they would probably go crazy in a few minutes. After all, even spacetime is chaotic, so one's mental state wouldn't be much better. Even the headquarters of the Ring of Time and Space in the future would have a trace of chaotic energy flowing inside.

It's not that the Ring of Time and Space n't remove those chaotic auras, but rather that it uses these chaotic auras to better brainwash... oops, better educate those students who come to headquarters for further studies, making them contribute to the Ring of Time and Space's grand plan and dedicate everything.

Thinking about this, Lin Fan felt a chill run down his spine. If it weren't for the special nature of candles, he would have been taken to headquarters for further training. After that training, he would probably have developed a generic personality.

"Otherwise, I could light the Flame of Life. Most wild animals are afraid of fire, so that should drive them away," Lin Fan thought aimlessly, before immediately dismissing these dangerous ideas.

Who knows if these creatures wandering in the chaotic spacetime can be considered wild animals? Besides, his life flame isn't a normal flame either; perhaps that wandering Evil God has been attracted to it.

"Hurry up and come here, Lu Li, didn't you want to see me?" Lin Fan grew more and more anxious as he waited. In this environment, his nerves were constantly being attacked. If he stayed here long enough, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to function normally. Besides, he was here in his real body, not Time Clone.

Occasionally, one encounters creatures living in this chaotic spacetime. Most of these creatures are deformed and bizarre, seemingly not animals from Earth at all. Moreover, in order to survive in this environment, most of these animals have evolved various strange abilities, such as teleportation, which is merely instinct.

Among these creatures are some failed creations from the experiments conducted by the cult that created the Eternal City. Although they are failures, they are still extremely dangerous due to the environment they are in.

The red of life leaped, and the flames burned to death a snake that suddenly appeared behind him. Lin Fan also felt his location change once again.

"If they don't come soon, I'll have to cancel this time travel." Lin Fan's expression suddenly changed, because he seemed to hear footsteps. The footsteps were very heavy, carrying a sense of oppression and fear.

"Damn it." Lin Fan exhaled. As the footsteps drew closer, he was ready to leave this chaotic space-time at any moment. He didn't even want to see the person who made the footsteps. According to Shadow B, if he saw the other person, he would go crazy immediately.

But soon, the footsteps faded into the distance. Lin Fan was slightly taken aback, and then he saw a ring not far away that was filled with the principles of the universe, the beginning and end of spacetime, the perfect combination of past, present and future, the sum of the finite and the infinite, and burning with blue flames.

The moment Lin Fan saw this thing, he knew that it was the legendary, great existence, the Time-Space Circle.

"Perhaps you'll adapt better with a different look," Lu Li said slowly, revealing his figure.

"As expected, it was you who wanted to see me?" Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had expected it, he was still surprised that Lu Li was the Time-Space Circle, which was accompanied by Envy.

"That's right." Lu Li said to Lin Fan, his blue flames fading and stabilizing the surrounding space-time.

"In your eyes, my current existence is exceptionally perfect, the most ideal and truthful circle, but if..." The flames in Lu Li's hand surged, causing blue flames to gleam in Lin Fan's eyes as well. "If you possess a deeper, more powerful perspective on time, you will discover that, like you, I am flawed in time."

"And the part I'm missing is the experience that follows. Because I was stared at by too many unspeakable things, it's been extremely difficult for me to recover from this period," Lu Li said. "So I need a substitute to help me complete one or two small tasks during this time, such as lighting a candle, preventing a certain dusty guy from actually coming in, or even tricking a senior."

"I have a feeling you've said something serious." Lin Fan shuddered. "Then why should I help you? The more I learn, the more confused I feel."

"Do you want to live? If so, then stop thinking about so many meaningless things." Lu Li said with a smile, "The meaning of life and all that is meaningless!"
