Su Ming didn't move too much.
He only controlled the Illusory World to move slightly downstream, then moved it back to the Douluo 1 node.
Looking up at his two selves downstream, anticipation surged in Su Ming's heart.
Was it possible?
It was possible!
A strong feeling arose in Su Ming's heart: as long as the current Illusory World could accurately move to the nodes of Douluo 2 and Douluo 3, his Douluo 1 main body could descend to those two time nodes along with the Illusory World!
However, he still didn't act rashly.
Looking at the fractured false history, he sighed softly.
If the false history directly extended to the Douluo 2 node, or even connected to the Douluo 3 side, he could simply use this false history as a rail to slide across.
After all, the essence of the Illusory World Spirit Skill was derived from false history, so it could certainly use it to 'slide'.
But currently, the false history hadn't yet spread to the Douluo 2 node, let alone the Douluo 3 node.
Su Ming didn't dare act rashly.
Without the restraint of a rail, if the Illusory World slipped out of control, he might slide into the unknown reaches of this river.
Su Ming gazed into the distance, looking across the river, and saw no end.
Whether horizontally or vertically, this river had always been endless.
The reason an upstream and downstream could be distinguished was only due to the rushing river water and the Trinity's positioning.
However—
Su Ming was cautious, but since he had already begun experimenting, he naturally wouldn't stop here.
He didn't rashly move the Illusory World, but synchronizing with the Douluo 3 Su Ming under the Trinity, he began to cooperate.
[Douluo 3]
Around Su Ming's body, rings of Spirit Rings appeared.
"Eighth Spirit Skill, Real World!"
Before the Real World had even begun to be constructed, he activated the power from Douluo 2.
Borrowing power!
"Turning Illusion into Reality!"
Also from the perspective of the River of Time, the Douluo 3 Su Ming stood upon the real future. Above his head was a Real World that had not yet taken shape.
As the Real World was transformed by Turning Illusion into Reality, it 'existed' on the River of Time. The scene within it also began to be constructed.
The content of the construction was very simple: the Illusory World located upstream.
Without the River of Time, without involving any other factors – only the Illusory World, and the Douluo 1 Su Ming within it.
However, just as he was about to change the future of this Illusory World, Su Ming hesitated again.
How could he make this Illusory World arrive at the Douluo 3 nodes?
He looked again at the River of Time below and fell into hesitation.
Without the river as a reference, how could he locate the time nodes?
The hesitation and doubt in his eyes gradually dissipated.
The River of Time was indispensable.
Therefore, in the Real World, besides the Illusory World and the Douluo 1 Su Ming within it, the River of Time also appeared below. However, it only included the false history section near the Illusory World and the real future section beneath the Douluo 3 Su Ming's feet.
Su Ming's mind raced crazily, thinking various possibilities.
He looked at the real future beneath his feet, seeing every detail within it.
He engraved these details into the real future portion of the Real World.
Then, he moved the Illusory World from the Douluo 1 node to the Douluo 3 node.
Everything else remained unchanged!
"This is the River of Time, a place beyond the temporal dimension. Therefore, the influence of the time factor on the effect of my Real World can be minimized!"
Su Ming's eyes gleamed. At this moment, his understanding of the Real World and of time further deepened.
"The longer the time, the more factors change, the stronger the resistance of the changing content, and the greater my consumption. The guiding effect of the Real World will also be worse."
"But the Douluo 1 version of me will control the Illusory World to cooperate with me. There is no resistance. The changing factor is also fixed by me to the point of the Illusory World. As for the length of time – it's zero!"
With various thoughts colliding in his mind, confirming that his logic was no problem, Su Ming boldly launched this rehearsal.
The rehearsal ended. Real World, activate!
The Real World above the Douluo 3 Su Ming's head shattered, merging into the River of Time below.
And as the Real World shattered, the Illusory World also disappeared from the upstream of the River of Time, appearing before the Douluo 3 Su Ming in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, the two Su Mings were seemingly within arm's reach. Facing each other, they revealed expressions of wild joy.
Success!
The Douluo 1 Su Ming had been transported to the Douluo 3 node.
Looking at the real future below, the Douluo 1 Su Ming didn't hesitate. He directly controlled the Illusory World and merged it into it.
Blood God Legion.
The Illusory World descended, overlapping with the surrounding world.
The Douluo 1 Su Ming emerged from it, truly appearing in this world.
The Douluo 3 Su Ming looked at the Past Self that had appeared before him. A look of shock was evident even in his eyes.
"I have crossed the timeline!"
Simultaneously, both gained various insights.
Along with this transport across the river, the two gained new understandings of time and their respective Spirit Skills.
After digesting the insights, the Douluo 1 Su Ming didn't rush to verify anything else. Instead, he used the same operation to return to the Douluo 1 node.
Confirming he could return, he no longer had any concerns. He descended to the Douluo 3 node a second time, conducting various tests with the Douluo 3 Su Ming.
The Douluo 1 Su Ming repeatedly visited the Douluo 3 Su Ming's real future, and when returning, also invited the Douluo 3 Su Ming to visit the Douluo 1 side's false history.
The two main bodies were now completely connected.
If the Douluo 3 Su Ming's power-borrowing Spirit Skill allowed the power of the three eras' Su Mings to flow through the river, then the mutual linkage of the three Su Mings' eighth Spirit Skills now allowed all things to flow along the river.
Not only Su Ming's main body, but he also tried placing external objects into the Illusory World, using it to transport them across time to another node.
Of course, he succeeded, but it also exhausted his vitality.
Just transporting a single piece of rare metal caused the Douluo 3 Su Ming, who was responsible for activating Real World, to completely deplete his Spirit Power, and even his Spirit Power limit was reduced by one level.
"Aside from myself, theoretically, anything else can also cross the river. But they do not possess my special characteristics. Therefore, attempting to descend into another era across a span of twenty thousand years would result in losses far beyond imagination."
Su Ming revealed a bitter expression.
"At this rate, I can only transport my own main body?"
If he wanted to transport supplies, he could only transport extremely important ones; otherwise, the cost would be unimaginable.
Unless the other party also possessed an extremely high status, enough to cross the river.
Thinking this, an idea came to Su Ming's mind.
"I wonder if a heavenly tribulation can be transported by me."
A heavenly tribulation's status was certainly high enough.
If he could lock a tribulation happening in Douluo 1 onto someone in Douluo 2, how would the Douluo 1 tribulation react?
At that point, if it was given the opportunity to cross the river to strike the target, could it drive the Illusory World to descend to Douluo 2?
Su Ming rubbed his chin, actually beginning to think about the feasibility.
"If it can truly be achieved, this would be a real divine descending from the heavens."
Verifying it would be simple, too.
