Chapter 474: Another Self (2)
The existence of Primordial Chaos was not a secret to the Primordial World in the past.
Many people even believed that the Primordial Space was a space above the world. They believed that this place was not restricted by the laws of heaven and earth and was truly beyond the world.
His goal was to enter the Primordial Space.
It was just like those ignorant children who always imagined that the so-called free and democratic world was the true heaven, but they did not know that that was the true hell.
The Primordial Space was not suitable for long-term living. Of course, this was for most creatures born in orderly spaces.
Some special and powerful existences were born and resided in this Primordial Space.
For example, Pangu’s consciousness was born from the Primordial Chaos, the Primordial Pearl, the Creation Golden Lotus, and other Connate Primordial Treasures.
There were also special creatures like Huang and Changjiang No. 7, who were also born in the Primordial Space.
“Looks like there were still people who spared no effort in searching for the Primordial Space in the Ancient Immortal Realm.”
Li Yu thought to himself. According to the information he currently possessed, the Heaven Shrouding Door was likely the barrier that completely isolated the Primordial World from the Ancient Immortal Realm back then.
In that case, the Kongtong Seal, one of the keys to opening the Heaven Shrouding Door, must have existed during the Ancient Immortal Realm.
However, it was lost later on.
Since the system indicated that it was in the Primordial Chaos, there was a high chance that its previous owner had brought it into the Primordial Space. However, for some reason, the Kongtong Seal was lost here.
Li Yu restrained his thoughts and began to search for the Kongtong Seal’s shadow in this chaotic space.
There seemed to be no sense of direction in this chaotic space. If he did not use the black domain as a reference, he would probably get lost if he entered.
However, with the system’s guidance, Li Yu quickly arrived at the approximate area where the Kongtong Seal was.
He saw the Kongtong Seal floating in the chaos.
At the moment, the Kongtong Seal was enveloped in a golden halo. Powerful magic power formed a special domain that blocked the invasion of the Chaos Qi.
After all, this was a divine artifact-level magic treasure that could withstand the refinement of the chaotic aura in the Primordial Space. Furthermore, it would become even stronger under the refinement of the energy in the Primordial Space.
Li Yu quickly flew over and reached into the golden halo to grab the Kongtong Seal.
“Ding… successful collection of Kongtong Seal!” The system’s voice sounded.
‘I didn’t expect it to go so smoothly!’
He thought that he would encounter some obstacles or some ignorant fellows who would cause trouble for him and slap their faces while he was at it.
He did not expect the process of obtaining the Kongtong Seal to be so ordinary.
However, just as Li Yu put the Kongtong Seal into the system space, he seemed to sense a figure pass by in the distance like a ghost from the corner of his eye.
At the same time, Li Yu realized that the surrounding chaotic energy seemed to have stopped for a moment.
Even stranger was that the moment that figure flashed past, Li Yu felt as if an electric current had run through his mind.
“What’s going on?” Li Yu found it strange, and he frowned slightly while he could not help but become vigilant.
‘I was just teasing about how smoothly I obtained the Kongtong Seal. It can’t be that quick, right?’
Li Yu thought to himself, but he carefully observed his surroundings as if nothing had happened, and he did not see anyone.
It must be an illusion!
Li Yu thought to himself.
That figure appeared again. This time, he stopped in his tracks as if he sensed Li Yu and looked over.
However, when Li Yu saw this figure, he was shocked, and then a sharp pain instantly swept through his brain.
He looked at the figure carefully. It did not seem to be an illusion, so why was there another him here?
“Who are you?” Li Yu endured his headache and asked.
However, the figure did not answer. His eyes seemed unfocused as he looked in Li Yu’s direction. He seemed to have sensed something amiss, but he did not see anything.
In the end, he shook his head strangely and walked away again.
Li Yu hurriedly chased after him, but the figure had already disappeared on the spot.
Furthermore, Li Yu clearly noticed that the moment the figure appeared, the surrounding chaotic energy stopped again.
As the figure disappeared, Li Yu’s headache disappeared.
“What’s going on?” Li Yu was puzzled. There must be a reason for this abnormality. He kept feeling that something was wrong.
Furthermore, he knew that it was not an illusion just now. Instead, it was as if a certain spatial dislocation had appeared, allowing him to see the past or the future him.
He seemed to have sensed something amiss at that time, but he could not see anything.
“If it’s really as I guessed, then was the me I saw just now my past or future self?” Li Yu pondered.
He soon had an answer. It should be his past self or even his previous life.
‘This Primordial Space is indeed strange!’ Li Yu thought as he continued to observe his surroundings to see if he could see his figure again.
After careful observation, Li Yu did not see that figure again.
He carefully recalled the special feeling in his mind when that figure appeared just now. However, he focused and repeated that strange feeling.
Indeed, the headache came again. At the same time, everything around him seemed to have stopped. His previous life’s figure gradually appeared in his vision.
He was walking away with his back facing Li Yu, but he seemed to have sensed something. He suddenly stopped and turned to look, his eyes filled with curiosity.
“It’s here again!” Li Yu was slightly excited. This might mean that he could establish a spatial connection with his previous life. Perhaps he could use this opportunity to recover his previous life’s memories.
As Li Yu pondered, the system interface suddenly popped up in front of him.
It read: Find the lost soul fragments of your previous life!
Upon seeing this system notification, Li Yu felt his head being struck by something. With a buzz, the pain became even more intense, as if ten thousand lightning bolts were striking him.
At the same time, Li Yu felt that everything around him seemed to have become illusory. Everything was silent, and he seemed to have entered a strange time and space or latitude.
The gaze of the figure in front gradually focused. In the end, he seemed to have seen him, and a wisp of surprise surfaced in his eyes.
However, just as he turned around and walked towards Li Yu, the still chaotic energy in the surroundings suddenly broke free from some sort of restraining power and moved again.
Li Yu seemed to have been forcefully dragged out of that strange space-time by some sort of power, and his figure disappeared again.
He held his head and calmed down for a while before recovering.
Although a trace of memories of his previous life seemed to appear in his mind, he still had no clue.
However, one thing was certain.
“So that figure is a soul fragment from my previous life! Furthermore, he should be living in a strange latitude in a certain time and space, unable to come into direct contact with me.
“But we have a natural connection and sensation towards each other!”
Li Yu was surprised. He did not expect that the figure was formed from his soul fragment.
He also understood why he had almost forgotten everything about his previous life. It turned out that it was only a portion of his soul that was reborn.
‘If I can find this soul fragment, I should be able to recover my memories from my previous life. Perhaps I can know how I died in my previous life and what was in the Heroic Spirit Temple!’
However, it was clear that it was not that easy to cross the dimension to find his soul fragment.
With a wave of his right hand, a ray of light flew out and transformed into a pearl. It was the Primordial Pearl.
“Little Primordial, help me suppress all the surrounding energy later!” Li Yu said in a low voice.
The Primordial Pearl did not know what Li Yu wanted to do, but it did not ask further and immediately replied, “No problem!”
