Primordial Origin's words plunged the entire space into silence.
The five elders' presences were still fluctuating, clearly digesting the meaning of what had just been said.
Lin Ye, however, was considering another question.
"Primordial Origin," he began, "you said I already have one foot in the sixth dimension, but I don't feel any different."
"Where exactly is the threshold of the sixth dimension?"
Primordial Origin's presence fluctuated slightly, as though they were considering how to explain.
"Do you know why most civilizations fail when they try to ascend to a higher dimension?"
Lin Ye shook his head.
"Because they treat dimensions as a ladder of power," Primordial Origin said. "They believe that with enough energy, they can ascend to a higher dimension."
"But that is wrong."
"Dimensions have never been levels of power. They are levels of understanding."
Their words stirred something in Lin Ye.
"Life in the Third Dimension understands length, width, and height. That is the boundary of its understanding."
"Life in the Fourth Dimension understands time and can move freely along the timeline."
"Life in the fifth dimension understands possibilities and can observe every quantum branch."
"And the sixth dimension..."
Primordial Origin paused. "What we understand is 'definition' itself."
"What is real? What is illusory? What is possible? What is impossible?"
"In our understanding, none of these things are fixed. They can be defined."
Lin Ye frowned. "But I don't have that ability."
"You do," Primordial Origin said. "Your hyper-true force is, in essence, defining reality."
"When you say, 'This is real,' it becomes real."
"When you say, 'This is possible,' something that was once impossible gains the possibility of happening."
"That is the power of the sixth dimension."
"It's just that your reach is still very limited. You can only affect reality on a local scale."
