Chapter 65: Test a Blow

"Is the future uncertain?That is to say, did you see the future of Perrin and then changed it?" Xiao Chen was a little worried in his heart, if he was facing an all-knowing, it would undoubtedly be a worrying thing, no matter who he was, he had some secrets that he didn't want others to know, let alone them, the traversers.

Icaza shook his head and said, "The past and the future are a web of threads of cause and effect. All we've done is look a little bit along the lines. Seeing Xiao Chen's confused face, he pointed to the coffee table and kettle beside him and said, "What will happen if I knock over this coffee table?"

"Well, the teapot will fall on the grass. Xiao Chen replied a little inexplicably.

"Yes, that's the prophecy. Pointing to his gray hair, Icasa asked, "What did it look like when I was younger?"

"When you were younger, they weren't white. ”

"That's right, that's history. Ikasa smiled and said, "You must be thinking, these things are things that everyone will understand." It's the simplest inference, isn't it?"

"That's true. Xiao Chen scratched his head and thought to himself, what kind of prophecy is this.

"But will it know?" asked Icasa, pointing to the white parrot perched in the treetops not far away.

Xiao Chen glanced at the parrot that shook its head and said, "If this is just an ordinary parrot, I'm afraid it won't be able to make this kind of inference." ”

"This is the difference between humans and parrots, because humans are better at reasoning than parrots, so humans know more than parrots. And the magicians of our Spirit Eye Tower may know a little more than ordinary people, which makes people a little surprised, and this has become the ability of the Spirit Eye Tower. But it is also impossible to see the accidents that arise from the entanglement of various threads of cause and effect. ”

"For example, when the teapot fell, I caught it with my hand. Xiao Chen understood a little now.

"Yes, or, I was originally gray-haired when I was younger. ”

"I now understand some of the prophecies about the future, and you can infer and calculate more based on the current situation, plus the power of magic, but why do you put the past and the future together, isn't the past something that has already happened and must be certain?"

"If there is no one in this world, the past is indeed certain and unchanging. But with the existence of man, with man's observation, the past is given the meaning of the present. ”

"You're saying that how we look at the past determines what the past looks like?"

Icassa told a story with a smile: "There was a young man who grew up in a harmonious family, where his parents were built, and for him, the past was some memories of life. But one day, he found out that he was not his biological parents, on the one hand, many of his adoptive parents' actions in the past had a different meaning in his opinion, and on the other hand, he also had the idea of finding his biological parents. At this point, has the past changed for him? What if he further discovers that his adoptive father is the murderer of his own parents? He will look at the past with hatred and intend to take revenge. What would he think if he found out that his biological parents were murderous bandits, and that his adoptive father had killed them to stop them from killing more innocent people?"

"It is an objective fact that the adoptive father killed his biological parents, but three different understandings of the same past can lead to different actions in the present and different results in the future. Xiao Chen said thoughtfully.

"That's right, that's how the past affects the present as much as the future. We don't have to know much about the past to the future. This is because our powers of observation are so limited that even with the help of the 'hole of insight', we can only see more and farther. There is no omniscient and omnipotent being, not even God. ”

"The hole of insight?"

"It's the blue ball of light you saw when you came in, it's a gap in the web of time. It makes it easier for us to peek into something. ”

"When I first came in, your eyes became like that ball of light, did you see my past and future?"

"I've seen something in you since you said the three words Tower of Dreams to Perrin, and now that you're standing before me, I'm even more convinced of that. That's the real reason why I'm inviting you here for the second time. ”

"Tower of Dreams......

"If you are not the inheritor of the Tower of Dreams, my disciple only needs to tell you not to use magic indiscriminately in the cities within the kingdom, and then register in the house outside, there is no need to bring you to this small world at all. The Tower of Dreams, when it comes to the Tower of Dreams, it is something that affects the past and the future, and is related to the lives of many people. ”

Xiao Chen couldn't help but get nervous, on the one hand, because he had only read the "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll" of the Tower of Dreams, and he didn't know the details of the Tower of Dreams. On the other hand, if the Tower of Dreams was really that important, he was afraid that the other party would have bad intentions, and he didn't think that he would be the opponent of a gray-haired old mage.

Icasa saw Xiao Chen's thoughts, waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, I won't harm you, if you really have any thoughts about your inheritance, you don't need to make so many detours." I have seen something in you, you were not originally part of this world, but now you are connected to this world. ”

Xiao Chen looked at each other dumbfounded, speechless for a while.

"Plane travel is a miracle, but it's not uncommon. It doesn't matter where you're from. Icassa ignored the identity of the traverser at all, and asked faintly excitedly, "Where did you get the inheritance of the Tower of Dreams, and what inheritance did you get, which is the big question related to this world." I hope you can answer my questions truthfully so that I can have a more accurate vision of the future. ”

Xiao Chen looked at the old mage's expectant and serious eyes, and could faintly feel that the other party had no malicious intent. The inheritance of the Tower of Dreams actually didn't have much to do with the school, and their foothold was not in an ancient book, so he didn't hesitate much, and decided to tell the truth: "I got the Tower of Dreams's "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll", and then read it. ”

"It turned out to be the first of the three holy texts of the Tower of Dreams, the "Shadow Scroll of Knowing the Sea". However, the premise of reading the "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll" is to practice the method of concentrating the mind, cultivate the spiritual power to concentrate the bottleneck, and then complete a special contemplation through the "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll", form a meditation world, and become a low-level mage of the 'Divine Consciousness Beginning', have you cultivated to this level before you get the "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll"?"

Xiao Chen said: "No, since you have seen our origin, I am not afraid to tell you." In the world I came from, there was no magic. It was after reading that book that I got magical powers. ”

"What? You watched the "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll" when you didn't know magic, and you didn't die of a mental breakdown? Instead, you directly contemplated success? Incredible, incredible, there must be special conditions in this that I don't know. Icasa said with a complete frown, "Then what did you see in your spiritual world after reading that book?"

"A boundless sea, I am on a boat in the middle of the sea. ”

Icasa stared at Xiao Chen for a long time with a look that looked at the monster, and then said excitedly: "Quick, attack me once with all your strength to attack Perrin." ”

"What are you?"

"Quick! don't leave your hands behind. ”

Xiao Chen had to brace himself and release his terrifying gaze with all his might, and as he waved his hand, the violent spiritual power rushed towards the old mage with this trembling aura. Master Icasa looked calm at first, but after a moment he frowned, and after less than five seconds, he had to pull out a pale green gem from his sleeve and block it. But within ten seconds, the gem shattered with a click. The old mage's face became heavier and heavier, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and fine beads of sweat appeared. At this time, Xiao Chen's power had spread out, and the white parrot that had originally stopped on the tree flew up in shock, but after flapping its wings twice, it fell to the ground with a twitch, and then there were bursts of rapid and short bird cries and insect chirpings from the surrounding trees.

Xiao Chen's spiritual power was still pouring out like a flood, and in his opinion, he was a pure novice, a real rookie. Although some details were seen through by the other party, they still had to show as much strength as possible, so that they would have more initiative. What's more, Icasar looks like a master, and is also known as a great magician, so he must be able to take his spells easily.

But he was so engrossed that he didn't realize that Icazar was almost at the limit. Xiao Chen already has a spiritual power foundation that far exceeds that of ordinary mages, in the past two months, he has seized every spare time to meditate, with the help of the Secret Law Inheritance Ring, the spiritual power he controls has already advanced by leaps and bounds, when he does it with all his strength, Master Icasa, who is not prepared enough, is tragic, his spiritual power defense line has been crumbling, his hands are trembling, and his face is white and terrifying. If he hadn't sat on a low stool, he would have collapsed on the ground.

Finally, Xiao Chen freely vented his violent spiritual power in this magic, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Master Ikasa on the opposite side was holding the coffee table with both hands, panting.

"You, are you okay?" Xiao Chen was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to support the other party. Master Ikasa, however, waved his hand and took care of himself.

After a long while, he raised his head with a serious face and said to Xiao Chen, "Now I understand that you are really merciful to Perrin. I almost fell for your magic. ”

"You're saying that my strength can fight with you?" Xiao Chen asked in disbelief.

Master Icasa glanced at the shard fragment in his hand and said, "No, I didn't release any defensive magic just now, I just used my mental power to take your attack. But this result is enough to be proud of. If I really want to deal with you, I have a lot of ways to take you down before you use your magic. ”

He put the fragments in the pocket of his robe, and then pointed to the white parrot that had fallen to the ground in the distance, and the parrot woke up. But when it saw Xiao Chen, it screamed and flew away in a hurry.

"Master Icassa, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect the movement to be so big. I have poor control over magic. Xiao Chen's old face turned red and apologized to the master.

Icasa waved his hand and said to Xiao Chen: "You are a genius, even when the Tower of Dreams is at its most brilliant, the tower master will definitely accept you as a disciple at any cost." ”
