Arrival at Zeno's Palace, the Space-Time Corridor?!

[Is he the Grand Priest?! I can't see through him at all...] Son Goku remained silent, but his heart was beginning to stir.

The Grand Priest before him seemed shrouded in an invisible mist, making it impossible for him to fathom his true nature.

Compared to angels, the Grand Priest appears more mysterious and enigmatic.

It is yet another extremely terrifying being.

"Nice to meet you, Son Goku." The Grand Priest smiled quietly and greeted Son Goku.

It wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't spoken, but the moment he did, it instantly stirred up memories buried deep in Son Goku Wukong's mind.

Back then, after he was swallowed by the Negative Karma Ball of the Omega Shenron, the sound he heard in the darkness was this!

"You... you... you are the one who called me?!" Son Goku's pupils trembled as he recognized the Grand Priest's identity.

After I died, my soul followed the call of that voice and headed towards the end of darkness, eventually attaching itself to another version of myself.

He was still wondering who the owner of that voice was and why it was guiding him.

Now, the truth has come to light: the one who guided him to rebirth in the darkness was none other than the Grand Priest!

Whis, who was standing to the side, also looked surprised when he saw that Son Goku knew the Grand Priest.

It turned out that his father and Son Goku had already had contact before.

"Yes," the Grand Priest replied to Son Goku's question.

The one who guided Son Goku to be reborn in another world was none other than him.

The atmosphere suddenly became strange.

Son Goku was filled with countless doubts, while the Grand Priest remained calm and composed.

Although Whis was curious about the relationship between the two, he didn't ask any further questions.

"Whis, you may leave now," the Grand Priest gestured, indicating that Whis could depart.

"Yes, Father." Without hesitation, Whis withdrew immediately after receiving the order.

With Whis gone, only Son Goku and the Grand Priest remained in the vast Crystal Corridor.

At this moment, Son Goku had many questions he wanted to ask the Grand Priest face to face, but for a moment, he didn't know how to start.

"Son Goku, I know you have many questions in your heart. Come with me, and you will know all the answers." The Grand Priest turned and walked into the depths of the crystal corridor.

Watching the Grand Priest depart, Son Goku hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to follow behind Grand Priest.

The crystal corridor stretched as far as the eye could see. The Grand Priest and Son Goku walked one after the other, and no one knew where they were going.

The two remained silent throughout the journey, and after walking for an unknown distance, the Grand Priest suddenly stopped.

Seeing this, Son Goku also stopped and stood behind the Grand Priest.

"We've arrived." As soon as the Grand Priest finished speaking, the crystal corridor beneath their feet suddenly burst into dazzling light.

[What is this power?] The mysterious power expanding out of nowhere made Son Goku perk up.

He expanded his senses, carefully sensing the changes that occurred after the surrounding space combined with this special power.

This feeling is very peculiar, similar to the power of angels, yet fundamentally different.

It's like... a special force capable of influencing the structure and space of the surrounding world!

[Could this be the special power Whis mentioned before, the power from the beginning of the universe?!] Son Goku recalled Whis's hint.

It seems there is no better explanation than this.

Soon, the radiance spread throughout the crystal corridor, causing the crystals beneath people's feet to shatter and scatter, and the surrounding space to shift accordingly.

When the light faded, Son Goku and the Grand Priest had arrived in another special world.

In the surrounding space, Son Goku saw countless familiar scenes.

These spaces play out events from the past, future, and present, showcasing events from various worlds.

"Where is this place?!" Son Goku asked.

"This is the midpoint connecting all parallel worlds and timelines. Here, you can see the past, the future, the present, and anything that happens in other parallel worlds."

Also known as the "Space-Time Corridor".

The Grand Priest smiled and explained to Son Goku.

"You said I would know the answer I wanted, and now, I've come with you into this Space-Time Corridor."

"Can you tell me the answer now?"

Son Goku stared at the Grand Priest, his expression very serious, and said...

Upon hearing this, the Grand Priest's smile widened. He put his hands behind his back and walked deeper into the Space-Time Corridor. At the same time, his voice reached Son Goku's ears. "Don't rush. Follow me, and you will naturally get the answer you seek."

Without hesitation, Son Goku followed the Grand Priest again, heading deeper into the Space-Time Corridor.

Along the way, Son Goku witnessed events that occurred in all timelines.

The past, the future, everything that happens—nothing can be hidden from view.

"Is this when Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta?" Son Goku was drawn to a scene in one of the timelines.

In this scene, Frieza is about to destroy Planet Vegeta when a Saiyan who looks exactly like him bursts out of Planet Vegeta and fights Frieza to the death.

At this moment, the memories sealed deep within Son Goku's mind were released.

He remembered some things.

That Saiyan was his father, Bardock!

"Dad..." Recalling his fragmented memories, Son Goku instinctively reached out to touch the light barrier, hoping to help Bardock defeat Frieza.

Just as he was about to enter the time tunnel of this timeline, the Grand Priest's voice came.

"Son Goku, the answer you seek is not in that time and space." As the Grand Priest's voice rang out, Son Goku's thoughts were pulled back, and he stopped in time.

He stepped back and witnessed the final outcome of the light curtain.

His father, Bardock's, resistance was ultimately futile. Frieza's planet-destroying missile carried Bardock into Planet Vegeta, ultimately leading to the Planet Vegeta's destruction.

Although Son Goku was moved by witnessing this entire scene, he did not feel sadness or anger.

He has already avenged the Saiyan race. In his world, Frieza was defeated by him, then killed by Trunks, and finally killed by him again during the chaos in the Other World.

Everything is fate; he can't interfere with so much.

Regaining his composure, Son Goku continued deeper into the Space-Time Corridor.

Following in the footsteps of the Grand Priest, Son Goku ventured deeper and deeper, witnessing the past, the future, and events unfolding in other parallel universes.

He took in every single change.

What bothered him most was that in a parallel universe, there actually existed Super Saiyan 5?!
