Traveler of the River of Time and Space

"Hold on tight!"

A rift in time and space was torn open. Amidst the dizzying teleportation, Su Ziyu suddenly found himself in an exceedingly strange space.

Everything seemed to be dissected.

The definition of time also started to blur, as he looked around to see a chaotic, bizarre spectacle, while he himself was sitting on a small stool. Opposite him, Lord Stephen was brewing tea, and on the small square table between them lay the previously inconspicuous little yellow flower.

Su Ziyu's gaze was quickly drawn to the little yellow flower in front of him.

Because it was blooming and aging at an astonishing speed, then withering rapidly, but immediately as if time was reversed, the withered flower revived, even slowly reverting to a bud.

"Where is this?" Su Ziyu asked in utter amazement.

Lord Stephen smiled, poured Su Ziyu a cup of red tea, and said softly, "Space-Time Turbulence."

"I use it to record the passage of time."

"The time we just experienced is in the future, so it quickly headed towards death, while now the time we are in belongs to the past, and it turns back to when it hadn't bloomed yet."

Incredible!

Su Ziyu attempted to observe his surroundings, but what he saw was entirely like a bizarre mirrored world, where everything rapidly flowed at an astonishing speed, slipping away in an instant, belonging to the future or past, unaffected by any power.

"This is the most dangerous place in the Multiverse."

"But for you, it should just be a transit station you must experience in the future." Lord Stephen's expression seemed a bit nostalgic, as he reminisced, "Back then, I almost lost my life here."

Su Ziyu was still observing the surroundings, and he noticed that after arriving here, the energy of the Hourglass of Time seemed to become a bit active.

"Young man." Lord Stephen leisurely brewed tea and even brought out some cookies that didn't quite match his demeanor, which were evidently not crafted skillfully, presumably by some maid, yet he didn't mind at all. Picking up a piece, he gestured for Su Ziyu to try it and then asked, "Do you know what time is?"

What is time?

Isn't this question too profound?

Su Ziyu gently shook his head and said, "I don't know."

"It's okay not to know. I'll teach you." Lord Stephen smiled, stood up, and said, "Look. This is time."

A spiraling endless nebula appeared in the palm of Lord Stephen's hand, then that nebula continuously evolved and contracted, ultimately becoming like an extremely compressed point of light. He said in a deep voice, "This is the beginning of time, the Big Bang of the Universe."

After saying this, a white hole-like existence appeared in the palm of his other hand, and he softly said, "This is the end of the Universe."

"Also the end of time."

"The distance between them is the length of time. Which we also manage as the river of time!"

The river of time that we manage?

Overwhelming.

Su Ziyu looked at the nebula-spanning river in the other's hand, and couldn't help falling into an inexplicable awe.

"Here is the Big Bang, the starting point of everything in the past, the beginning of matter's birth." Lord Stephen's fingers moved slowly along the nebula river, continued to evolve forward, stopped at some node, lightly touched it, and the nebula expanded like the roots of a great tree, many invisible crystal clear barriers emerging.

He softly said, "Here is the beginning of the Crystal Wall Element."

"The Law of Space in the Multiverse starts to emerge, and some spaces with more matter and energy begin to form the Crystal Wall Element."

"This period of time belongs to the original era."

Lord Stephen continued to evolve forward along the river of time, and softly said, "This is the era of the Ancient Gods, where the first Titans and Star Gods converged the energy essence of the entire Crystal Wall Element to be born, knowing by birth, born with immense power."

"Then."

"The Primordial Demons appeared."

Lord Stephen's finger traced a circle of black and purple ripples in the nebula, and slowly said, "They came from another Universe."

"The true void."

"A Universe that did not experience a Big Bang but directly annihilated and collapsed, no matter was born, massive energy returned to Chaos, nurturing the Primordial Demons."

"The Ancient Gods battled with them."

"A pyrrhic victory."

"Soon, the Ancient Gods discovered a problem, that no new Ancient Gods had been born for a long time."

"If it continues like this, they are bound to fail when the Primordial Demons strike next time."

"Thus."

"The era of new gods began."

Lord Stephen's finger pointed at a certain point in time and said in a deep voice, "The Space-Time Hub was born at this point, the first master of space-time created the Divine Hall of the Hub and, using the remnants of Star Gods born from stars, created the neutron star golem of the Guardian Prison."

"Meanwhile, another group of original Titans and Ancient Gods constructed the Pantheon in the deepest part of the Multiverse."

"The second and third generations of God of Faith began to appear."

Lord Stephen's palm-held Multiverse continued to evolve, and he softly said, "This time belongs to the past."

"The gods of the Pantheon are responsible for managing the various Crystal Wall Elements in the Multiverse."

"While we are responsible for overseeing the entire river of time."

"Time is the length of the Universe, while space is the width of the Universe."
