I Am Loaded With Passive Skills

Chapter 3816: Chapter 1841: Time Ancestor_2

Xu Xiaoshou opened his mouth, but made no sound.

The man waited for a while, then sighed:

"You have come."

This time, Xu Xiaoshou heard a sense of regret, a touch of lament, along with a release from seeing the changes in the world.

What is this...

Why is there someone here, could you be the Time Ancestor?

Xu Xiaoshou looked around, seeing the door had vanished, slightly squinting his eyes, considering whether he could return through the river of time to avoid this person.

"You have come."

The man spoke for the third time, his voice carrying a hint of displeasure.

Xu Xiaoshou adjusted his expression, dared not neglect, and spoke solemnly:

"I have come, yet you have aged."

The man’s back seemed slightly startled, he did not turn around, but said slightly surprised: "You remember?"

Remember what?

I know nothing!

Xu Xiaoshou hated this kind of pretentious person, just like Dao Qiongcang, he shook his head slowly, sighed:

"I might remember, you may have forgotten."

The man heard, fell silent for a long time, then let out a laugh: "You are still the same..."

He truly met me!

Xu Xiaoshou felt that this person might be an old acquaintance of his, yet he had completely forgotten?

Why?

What is he waiting for?

After pushing open the door, why is it him he sees, and not someone else?

His throat slightly rolled, Xu Xiaoshou pondered his words carefully, tactfully asked: "Cao Yihan, why are you here..."

The man’s figure trembled.

Xu Xiaoshou quickly corrected himself: "Oh, called wrong, Bazhun’an..."

The person seemed to have the impulse to turn around, but obviously restrained it, still facing away from him.

What are you doing, turn around... Xu Xiaoshou felt pressure: "Kong Yuhen, Kong Yuhen, I can’t recognize you?"

The man quieted down.

Strangely, he did not refute.

Is it really Kong Yuhen, or is it the Time Ancestor, the composite of all the Kong Yuhens on the river of time?

Then, where is this?

After hesitating for a while, Xu Xiaoshou decided not to pretend to understand, seriously asked: "Actually, I know nothing here, Brother... Yuhen, could you enlighten me?"

"What do you want to know?"

The back seemed easygoing, so Xu Xiaoshou asked frankly: "Where is this?"

"Time Realm."

"What?"

Xu Xiaoshou couldn’t help but express his surprise.

Isn’t the Time Realm not yet reshaped?

If this is the Time Realm, what is the empty sorrow at All Time Forgotten Sorrow Pavilion doing?

"Brother Yuhen, could you elaborate further?"

"You can also consider it the Heavenly Realm within the Time Realm, the Thirty-Three Heavens."

Heavenly Realm...

Xu Xiaoshou looked around again.

The sound of stream water, crane calls, birds and flowers, heaven on earth.

But aside from the sea of clouds and the bridge to heaven, and the pavilion ahead, he couldn’t see the other things he heard.

"This must be a façade?" Xu Xiaoshou frowned.

"When falsehood becomes true, truth is pretended, in terms of time, truth or falsehood, is merely the sequence." The figure shook his head slightly, "Guess at past or future."

Is this the past?

Or the future?

Xu Xiaoshou listed what was asked before, unable to summarize an answer, said: "Brother Yuhen, long time since you called my name..."

The figure seemed to smile, didn’t dodge the question, but responded: "What do you want me to call you, Xu Ancestor?"

Ancestor!

With this word out, Xu Xiaoshou felt he got the answer, this must be the future!

"Or Name Ancestor?"

The back spoke again.

Xu Xiaoshou seemed to see himself becoming gods and ancestors in the future, his face breaking into a smile:

"This is the future."

The figure before the pavilion shook slowly: "This is the past, you opened the door to the past, we meet at the origin of the river of time."

Whoa!

The sound of flowing water grew louder in his ears.

Xu Xiaoshou’s pupils trembled, yet he still couldn’t see where the river of time was, he stepped on the Time Dao Disc.

The Great Dao Disc appeared, yet the river of time remained unseen.

Brilliant Power Upanishad Formation, covered the heavenly bridge, pavilion, and the sea of clouds in sight, that back looked down, at the divine path patterns on the ground, whispering:

"Great Dao Disc."

Yes, this indeed is the Great Dao Disc...

No, how do you recognize this as "Great Dao Disc", isn’t it...

Xu Xiaoshou thought deeply, the three words "Great Dao Disc" were clearly given by the Passive System, the world should call it the Time Dao Discs.

Even if Zhong Yuanzi came, his definition of this thing, is only "Great Path Diagram."

"You have indeed forgotten quite a bit."

The silhouette in front of the pavilion didn’t turn around, yet it seemed to understand all of Xu Xiaoshou’s reactions. It slowly raised a hand.

Whish!

A flick of the fingertip.

A pale golden light shot out, hitting Xu Xiaoshou’s forehead squarely, leaving no chance to dodge.

"What are you doing... Ouch!"

Xu Xiaoshou clutched his forehead and stepped back, feeling the pain as if someone had flicked him hard.

When he lowered his hand, his head felt swollen, as if something had been infused into it.

Focusing his thoughts, he internally examined the Origin Court of the Purple Mansion.

Below the Passive System, there was now a golden bead, exuding an ancient temporal aura.

"What is this?"

Xu Xiaoshou did not feel any malice from the shadow named Kong Yuhen, but he was cautious of the golden bead.

"Take it out and see."

Upon getting a response, Xu Xiaoshou willed a thought and a golden bead appeared in his hand.

"This is the Origin of Spacetime, promised to be handed to you, but you came late, and now it’s somewhat incomplete, retaining only the power to retrace everything to its origin."

Retrace...

Is it a forceful reversal, or a brief return to the origin, then everything restores to its original state?

Could this work on Cursed Yin, turning it into a Yin baby, and then kill Cursed Yin while it’s in baby form?

"What can it retrace?" Xu Xiaoshou asked, holding the bead.

"Everything."

It seemed like an answer, yet not really one, leaving Xu Xiaoshou dumbfounded.

In a daze, he recalled a crucial point that nearly slipped by in the banter.

"Is this the past?" Xu Xiaoshou pointed at the ground beneath him.

The silhouette in front of the pavilion nodded slightly, no longer speaking, seemingly tired of Xu Xiaoshou constantly asking questions to which answers already existed.

Xu Xiaoshou had more questions in his mind.

If this is the past, then this shadow named Kong Yuhen called himself "Xu Ancestor" and "Name Ancestor."

How does this make sense?

Had his past self already reached the Ancestral God Realm?

The first title, Xu Xiaoshou could still interpret as a compliment, just as he met Bazhun’an and could call him "Eight Ancestors"—although this shadow had no reason to flatter himself.

But "Name Ancestor"...

The Way of Name, he only began studying half a year ago.

If the shadow named Kong Yuhen wasn’t lying, had he already been called "Name Ancestor" in the past?

Then why, among the Ten Ancestors, is there no mention of a Name Ancestor?

"I am a bit confused now..."

Xu Xiaoshou didn’t know what to ask or where to begin.

Time Ancestor Kong Yuhen, really shouldn’t be seen—seeing him induces more anxiety, he truly is the Ancestor of Anxiety!

Boom—

The Cloud Sea suddenly shook.

The surroundings showed signs of breaking apart.

In front of the pavilion, the silhouette remained unmoved, not turning around, only sighed softly:

"There’s no time, the Origin of Spacetime can retrace everything to the essence, begin by finding answers from the wheel."

Wheel...

While Xu Xiaoshou pondered what kind of wheel it was, a tremendous crash sounded, and this past realm shattered and disintegrated.

Darkness.

Chaos.

Glowing light.

Xu Xiaoshou opened his eyes, realizing he returned to the void, standing again before the gate.

However, the gate was no longer three, but only two remained.

Everything prior felt like a dream from which he just awoke, the memories slightly dimmed, yet the golden bead in his hand remained vividly real.

"Brother Anxiety, you really do make one anxious..."

Xu Xiaoshou mused silently; the wheel he spoke of, could it be the Passive System?

Could this Origin of Spacetime in his hand retrace the essence of the Passive System, illuminating everything for answers?

If so, he wouldn’t need to trade with the Demon Ancestor at all.

It turns out, not only the Demon Ancestor knows of the "wheel’s" existence, even Time Ancestor Kong Yuhen from the past time realm also knows of the "wheel"?

"Retrace..."

Holding the golden bead, Xu Xiaoshou hesitated.

Is this a trap? Should he press the golden bead onto the Passive System and see the past of the wheel?

"Wait, this doesn’t seem like the main point..."

Xu Xiaoshou recalled that Hua Changdeng might have arrived, his head aching, something forgotten.

But he should inform Bazhun’an first.

How to find Bazhun’an?

"Bazhun’an!"

The call went unanswered.

Then he could only use time reversal.

Xu Xiaoshou willed a thought, stepping onto the Time Dao Disc, seeing the river of time flow from afar.

When the river of time washed over the illuminated gate.

Before he could react, the second illuminated gate opened by itself, the light inside burst forth, sucking him in.

"Whoa..."
