At this moment, outside the primordial chaos, in the void.
Ye Ling had not yet realized what trouble he had gotten himself into. Currently, he was fully focused on confronting the remnant soul of the Dark Star.
Although the black tentacles had grown stronger and their attack angles had become more cunning, Ye Ling was still able to adapt to the intensity.
This was Ye Ling's first encounter with a creature from the dark side of the void. Therefore, Ye Ling did not intend to obliterate this remnant soul. Instead, he seized this opportunity to understand the characteristics of creatures from the dark side of the void as much as possible.
After all, the "Brain" also belonged to the dark side of the void. If Ye Ling could gather some intelligence from the remnant soul of the Dark Star in this place, he would be able to gain a certain advantage in his future battles against the "Brain."
"These black tentacles seem to defy our rules. As long as they lock onto me, no matter where I hide, they can attack me. This is quite similar to causality skills." Da Feng Novel
"Next, I'll try to use Mo Zhi Jian to decompose its specific attributes!"
Ye Ling had just used Absolute Divine Movement to tear apart a tentacle that was ambushing him from behind. As he was thinking about using Mo Zhi Jian for serious business, Yin Guo, who had been quietly residing within Ye Ling, suddenly issued a warning to Ye Ling: "Master, be careful! I can sense something very terrifying approaching us!"
"Something very terrifying?"
Upon hearing Yin Guo's words, Ye Ling was taken aback. He immediately transformed into the form of the Primordial Time Emperor, greatly enhancing his precognition.
However, Ye Ling found that nothing would happen to him within the next ten seconds!
"Yin Guo! What exactly did you sense?"
Ye Ling's heart sank when he realized his precognition was useless, and he quickly inquired of Yin Guo.
As the second-ranked causality spirit beast, Yin Guo subsisted on consuming causality power. Ye Ling did not believe that Yin Guo would make a perceptual error.
Yin Guo anxiously replied, "I don't know! It seems like it's not here, yet it seems to be everywhere. Everything is very chaotic. In short, Master, you must be extremely careful!"
Hearing Yin Guo's unhelpful response, Ye Ling knew he couldn't rely on Yin Guo to prevent danger. He immediately activated Absolute Divine Movement, preparing to teleport back to the Three Thousand Universes.
Since he didn't know what the danger was, it was better to run first. After all, this was just a remnant soul in the void, and it wouldn't cause any major problems if left unattended.
Ye Ling's goal this time was only to understand more about the characteristics of creatures from the dark side of the void. He had no reason to put himself in peril.
However, just as Ye Ling was about to teleport away using Absolute Divine Movement, he suddenly felt an indescribable searing pain. Afterward, his arm inexplicably bore the marks of being constricted by tentacles!
"How did these marks appear?"
Seeing the marks on his arm, Ye Ling's pupils constricted sharply, and a stormy sea surged in his heart!
In the future he had foreseen, absolutely nothing had happened, yet he had still been attacked by a creature from the dark side of the void...
"How can a mere remnant soul achieve this?"
Ye Ling muttered in a deep voice, but at this moment, he no longer had the energy to investigate how the other party had attacked him. He began to use his World to decompose his body and check for any abnormalities.
Earlier, Xing Yu had repeatedly warned him not to be touched by those tentacles!
Now that Ye Ling had been touched by the tentacles, he could only try to remedy the situation.
However, as soon as Ye Ling used his World to decompose the arm that had the marks, his other arm, as well as his thigh and body, and even his neck and face, all bore black marks!
Moreover, those marks looked like they had been there for a long time, bearing the imprint of years on Ye Ling's body!
At this moment, Yin Guo seemed to have discovered something and immediately said to Ye Ling, "Master! I understand now. That monster is attacking your past!"
"Attacking my past?"
Upon hearing Yin Guo's words, Ye Ling was greatly shocked. He had long since transcended the river of time. The past, present, and future were all his alone.
The Ye Ling in the river of time, both past and future, were merely phantoms with no connection to the current Ye Ling!
How could a creature from the dark side of the void affect the real him by attacking a phantom from the past?
Ye Ling was immensely shocked, but he also slowly realized that his memories had begun to change.
In his current memory, long before he first transmigrated to the Eastern Xuan Continent, he had been entangled by black tentacles, and his arm had been left with a permanent mark.
As for the other marks on his body, he could find corresponding memories from different stages of his life, as if... all of this had truly happened!
"What kind of ability is this?"
Ye Ling knew from his memories that he had been attacked by a creature from the dark side of the void in the past, and he was deeply shaken!
However, Ye Ling did not sit idly by. After discovering that his past had been attacked, he ignored the doubled consumption of using Origin Text in the void and immediately condensed Origin Text before him.
Since he could use Origin Text to customize the future, by thinking in reverse, he could also use Origin Text to customize his own past!
"Yin Guo, help me!"
"Alright!"
Yin Guo had already recognized Ye Ling as its master and was in sync with Ye Ling. It instantly understood what Ye Ling intended to do and immediately activated Origin Text with Ye Ling, using causality skills.
With Yin Guo's assistance, the consumption of Ye Ling's "Customize Future" technique was greatly reduced, and he successfully customized his "past," returning his "past" to its proper course!
All the marks of the tentacles on Ye Ling's body disappeared!
"Success!"
Seeing that the marks of the tentacles on his body had vanished, Ye Ling's face lit up with joy. He had confirmed his guess and temporarily resolved the crisis.
However, Ye Ling's current use of Customize Future had only found a way to deal with the attacks from creatures of the dark side of the void.
He still didn't know how creatures from the dark side of the void were attacking his past, which meant... his past was still in danger!
As expected, as soon as Ye Ling used causality skills to customize his past, his arm once again bore the marks of tentacles!
The creature from the dark side of the void had once again launched an attack on Ye Ling's past!
"Damn it! Where is this thing hiding?"
Seeing the marks appear on his body again, Ye Ling couldn't help but curse, but he dared not be careless and once again used causality skills to correct his past.
Ye Ling and the hidden creature from the dark side of the void were locked in a grueling war of attrition!
However, Ye Ling was currently in the void, with nothing around him. He could not replenish his spiritual energy from the outside.
Even with Yin Guo's assistance, if he continued to consume like this, he would only have a dead end!
Yin Guo, whose energy was greatly depleted, began to rumble, and it immediately shouted at Ye Ling, "Master! I can't hold on much longer! Hurry and think of a way!"
