Chapter 196: Unknown Space

As Mo Xiao stepped through the platinum door, the entire trial space immediately distorted, following Mo Xiao’s footsteps as they entered the gate.
In an instant, the entire Trial Canyon turned dark. It took a while before it returned to its original state.
Meanwhile, outside the trial canyon, Su Jiner’s expression became grave as she looked back at the canyon.
She looked extremely worried.
“How could this happen? Why did Junior Brother disappear? It shouldn’t be…” Su Jiner frantically searched on the map.
But she couldn’t see Mo Xiao’s figure at all.
If it weren’t for the team system still displaying Mo Xiao’s name, Su Jin’er would have thought that Mo Xiao had died inside.
“What’s going on? Could there be a special space inside this trial canyon?” Su Jiner couldn’t figure it out at the moment and could only wait in place. If Mo Xiao came out and couldn’t find her, it would be a problem.
Meanwhile, in an incredibly dark space, a platinum door slowly appeared.
Accompanied by the sound of unlocking, the door opened, and Mo Xiao slowly walked out.
[You have arrived at an unknown map. Please proceed with caution.]
“Unknown map?”
Looking at the information that popped up in front of him, Mo Xiao frowned slightly.
Although he didn’t sense any danger, this unknown factor made Mo Xiao vigilant.
As he walked out of the platinum door, the surrounding environment seemed to have sensed it and immediately rippled like waves.
At the same time, the platinum door closed rapidly, not giving Mo Xiao a chance to react, and it sank into the ground.
Seeing this scene, Mo Xiao’s pupils suddenly contracted.
Almost instantly, as if by reflex, Mo Xiao quickly activated the Tears of Time.
Suddenly, everything around him came to a halt.
“Reverse the Universe!”
In an instant, with the activation of the Time Reversal, the door that had been sinking rapidly ignored the system’s rules.
It began to rise under the influence of the Tears of Time.
Just as the door was about to rise back to the ground, a crisp snap of fingers suddenly sounded.
Instantly, the light representing the Tears of Time disappeared.
The slowly rising platinum door sank into the ground at an even faster speed.
“The reversal of the universe has been forcefully ended? That’s impossible!” Seeing this scene, Mo Xiao was also shocked. Before he could react,
a voice identical to his echoed in the entire space.
“Sorry, I was negligent. I didn’t expect you to be the new Sage of Time.”
Hearing this voice, Mo Xiao suddenly turned around.
He saw a colorful light slowly rising from the ground, and then it fluctuated rapidly.
In no time, it turned into a human figure and gradually solidified, becoming a real person.
And this person looked exactly like himself.
Seeing this identical figure in front of him, Mo Xiao immediately cast an Illusion Breaking Technique.
[No target detected. Illusion Breaking Technique has failed.]
“No target?” Mo Xiao frowned again. This guy was clearly right in front of him.
Seeing Mo Xiao’s actions, the man slowly smiled. “Although the Illusion Breaking Technique can detect all information, it can’t detect mine. After all, I’m not an individual.”
Hearing these strange words, Mo Xiao asked with a serious expression, “Who are you?”
As he spoke, he held both Thousand Mechanism Umbrellas in his hands at the same time, ready to act if the other side made any move.
Seeing Mo Xiao’s actions, the man’s smile became even brighter. “Don’t be afraid, Sage of Time. I have no intention of hurting you, and I can’t hurt you, at least not now.
“Of course, you can’t hurt me either.”
As he spoke, the man gently flicked his finger, and the Thousand Mechanism Umbrella in Mo Xiao’s hand immediately disappeared and returned to his backpack.
“!!!” Seeing this scene, Mo Xiao was also shocked. Just as he was about to open his backpack and re-equip, a system notification appeared directly in front of Mo Xiao.
[The inventory cannot be opened in the current space!]
“I can’t open my backpack?!” Mo Xiao was also shocked when he saw this. He quickly raised his hand and prepared to release his skill.
[Ding, the rules of space have changed. No skills can be used in the current space!]
“What?!!”
Mo Xiao looked at the information in front of him in disbelief.
He could not open his backpack, had no equipment, and could not use his skills.
Wasn’t that just asking him to wait for death?!
Seeing Mo Xiao’s shocked expression, the man smiled again. “I banned these things just to have a good chat with you.”
As the person spoke, he gently raised his right hand.
Immediately, Mo Xiao felt everything around him begin to flow rapidly, as if he was being pulled over.
And behind him, there was a luxurious sofa.
But the next moment, everything returned to normal. The originally
pitch-black environment had turned into a sealed room.
And behind him, there was a luxurious sofa.
“Sage of Time, please have a seat. We can chat for a while now,” the person said, raising his hand.
Mo Xiao’s body suddenly softened, and he sat directly on the sofa.
Watching everything that was happening, Mo Xiao was dumbfounded. It seemed that this person could control everything about him.
Mo Xiao took a deep breath and asked cautiously, “Who are you? What do you want from me?”
“To say who I am… In the words of your people from the Blue Star, I am the main system of this game,” the main system said lightly, “Or, in the words of the people in this world, I am the source of the world’s laws.”
“You’re the system?!” Hearing this, Mo Xiao was dumbfounded again.
The system?
A special existence that controls the entire world!
Why did it come to talk to me?
“Actually, there’s nothing special about it. Your abilities caused the program of the trial canyon to crash, so 1 came to take a look,” the main system said truthfully. “I originally wanted to compensate you with the reward for that key.”
“But I didn’t expect you to be the Sage of Time of this generation, so I thought I’d have a chat with you.”
“What reward?” Mo Xiao asked instinctively when he heard about the reward.
The main system raised an eyebrow and said, “That’s not important. 1 can adjust the reward anytime I want, so please be patient and chat with me.”
“…” Mo Xiao was silent for a moment before saying, “I’m not the Sage of Time. I just used the Sage of Time’s equipment thanks to the special abilities of my profession.”
“The setting for the Tears of the Sage is that the first person to use it becomes
the Sage with the corresponding ability, until the user’s death..”
