"What... what is this?! Lin Yi felt countless streams of information pouring into his brain, and everything around him seed to hold an imnse amount of information, even with just a fleeting glance."
Kuai Hongji shouted, "Don’t rush to observe first, first perceive the expansion of the layers! We are entering the realm of ’Ti Exile’, in other words, we are ascending dinsions!! Ti is solidifying into a cage!! During the unfolding of ti, don’t observe for too long, or your ti will be absorbed by the dinsion!"
"Clang clang clang clang clang... clang clang clang clang clang..."
The world continued to tremble, as if it was presenting itself in another form in front of Lin Yi.
World, space, layers, dinsions—they are naturally changing, and as the ti dinsion materializes, the entire dinsional domain will beco an existence beyond cognition!
As the fissure, combination, and iteration of the raster gradually stabilized, Lin Yi discovered that the original bedroom had disappeared, and he had fallen into an infinitely nested glowing frawork structure.
This place was filled with geotric structures far beyond cognition, completely different from the chaotic, disgusting, and terrifying environnts he had perceived before.
Here, every frawork was composed of flowing liquid light bands, and within the light bands surged torrents of imnse information, as if containing the underlying logical code that structures the world.
These fraworks were not stationary but contracted and expanded rhythmically like breathing alveoli. With each breath, a brand new hyper-dinsional cubic frawork would derive within–it turned out that the iteration of the layered world had not stopped, it was just that his position had been temporarily anchored...
As the anchoring completed, his will body turned into a tangible form, yet was naked, akin to a newborn humanoid shrouded in light and shadow.
And when he appeared, countless versions of himself appeared within the hyper-dinsional cubic frawork, each version of him appearing inside a frawork, as if countless mirrors were refracting the sa him.
Eerie, magnificent, and extrely grand.
"What is this..."
"What is this..."
"What is this..."
Countless Lin Yis mumbled in confusion, their voices echoing endlessly within the hyper-dinsional cube that had lost its temporal significance.
The nurous Lin Yis couldn’t discern which one was the original, or perhaps, all of them were the original.
"Old Lin..." Kuai Hongji’s voice rang in Lin Yi’s heart.
"Kuai Kuai!" Lin Yi looked around, "Where are you?! Why can’t I find you or Maozi?!"
Everywhere around him was a frawork structure composed of flowing liquid light bands, which looked like a terrifying... prison.
Kuai Hongji’s voice continued to resonate, "The depths of the layers, the heights of dinsions, can’t be entered in a physical state... I can only integrate your will into a ’sound wave’ using the power of the music box and project it into infinite layers..."
"Maozi and I are at other levels to assist you and hold you up!!"
"Listen, Old Lin, close your eyes, close your eyes first! You won’t see countless temporal axis landscapes here, where the causal chain is visualized. Don’t act recklessly, otherwise, any wrong step could create so unspeakable horror in a ti paradox!"
"You’re in high dinsions, and any butterfly effect will have a devastating impact on lower dinsions... A drop of water is enough to change the world of ants!"
Lin Yi grew more panicked as he listened, quickly shutting his eyes tightly, "Then what should I do?"
He felt like he had traversed into "The Matrix", fighting in a virtual world like Neo, while Kuai Hongji and Mao Feiyang were the hackers in the spaceship assisting him with the data changes.
As soon as he closed his eyes, the entire space instantly felt like nihility, as if he couldn’t perceive anything. This sensation of losing everything filled him with intense panic and helplessness, although he firmly closed his eyes, trusting Kuai Hongji’s words.
"Don’t panic, don’t panic, those were just worst-case scenarios. To turn the gears of ti, you’d at least need the ability to ’turn the gears of ti’, but with your capacity, getting annihilated here isn’t going to accomplish any of that... so there’s no need to be so wary."
"I was just giving you a precaution not to act recklessly because of seeing so nonexistent future."
Lin Yi quickly said, "Just tell what I should do!"
"What you need to do is feel," Kuai Hongji said, "With the bond between you and the Contractor, you will surely be able to perceive her location..."
"’Ti Exile’ ans she’s thrown into a ti-solidified ball cage like you’re in now. However, there exists a tether between us, allowing us to leave anyti, but she doesn’t..."
"So!" Lin Yi suddenly realized, "Finding her ans she has this tether!"
Everything beca clear, akin to descending into a confined cave with a safety rope. The ’Contractor’s’ rope broke at the mont of exile, while he ca tied to the rope.
Yet, what did Kuai Hongji’s ntioned ’bond’ an?!
"That’s right!" Kuai Hongji said, "Start sensing quickly and don’t forget the advice that the ’you’ from a possible past gave you! Look for her and then open your eyes to confirm!"
"Could I sense wrongly?!" Lin Yi was uncertain.
"Believe in yourself!" Kuai Hongji said, "Trust the ’you’ who laid out this plan!"
"Okay, okay! I understand! I understand!" Lin Yi responded repeatedly.
Kuai Hongji and Mao Feiyang imdiately stopped talking, and Lin Yi could only vaguely feel the subtle bond with the two of them.
"Contractor... Contractor..." Lin Yi kept muttering in his heart.
Gradually, he felt a faint calling...
[Lin Yi, oh Lin Yi...]
[Lin Yi, oh... Lin Yi...]
A distant calling voice, indistinguishable as male or female, drifted out slowly, penetrating the ti-solidified cage and boring into Lin Yi’s ears.
"A calling voice...? What is that...?"
Lin Yi’s spirit lifted, and he imdiately wandered toward the source of the voice within the ti-solidified cage.
He continually traversed through the void, approaching the source of the voice through the ripples of the call.
Still, he kept a piece of his heart’s eye, opting not to respond to this calling voice.
Nonetheless, his movent in the ti-solidified cage still produced slight ripples, and that calling voice exhibited so restrained urgency.
"Not like the ’Contractor’."
Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat.
Under normal circumstances, when in doubt, withdrawal should be the first choice.
However, two reasons prevented him from taking the most conservative evacuation approach.
Firstly, such an opportunity exists only once. Although there are many opportunities in life, if not this ti, there is always a next one. However, Lin Yi knew profoundly that true opportunities are few, often re illusions, and the real ones might only appear a couple of tis in the long river of ti.
They had strategized for an indeterminate period for this plan, how could he retreat and avoid due to a last-minute thought?
Secondly, the faceless ’he’ suspected of infiltrating from the future through the ’Dream Boundary’ told him in frantic warnings to go once, but leave imdiately after a glance.
What does this an?
This ans that "reaching the Contractor’s Ti Exile place" is a "necessary experience" on the tiline, with no room for discussion or renegotiation.
Either don’t choose to liberate the Contractor at all, or, don’t make other choices midway.
