After a long pause, Silverlight said slowly, Xiao Lin, you are special. You are different.

Uh, if you are thinking about discussing philosophy, I think you might have found the wrong person.

No, your specialty lies not in philosophy or in your intuition. You are different. I probably told you before that we royal family members have special abilities in our minds eye. One of my special abilities is Truth. I can see anybodys truth, but you are the only one who I am not able to glean. I was very surprised when I first met you. I never expected to be able to meet such a person again.

Again? Xiao Lin caught Silverlights choice of words, and he became more confused. Hold on. You said that Im special. Whats special about me? I dont think that I am very handsome. Uh fine, fine, Ill stop joking. So tell me, who was this other person whose truth you werent able to see through?

I dont know. We were fated to only have a brief encounter. It was about a hundred years before I met you. He was also passing by Silverlight Lake. However, my Control had no effect on him. He didnt plan to do anything to me. All he did was to greet me before departing. Silverlight frowned as she recalled the memory. Then, with a wave of her hand, a curtain of water rose from the ground. A young mans face could clearly be seen in the water.

Ivanovich? Xiao Lin was taken aback slightly but immediately felt relief. He had met Ivans residual memory fragments in his dreams, and he also knew how Ivan looked when he was young, so he recognized him in an instant. If it were him, he basically understood what Silverlight meant by his specialty.

I understand a little now. But, is this related to the wall of time?

Do you know what we called humans like you two back in our time? The elderly Silverlight seemed to have completely returned to the nature of a mischievous girl. Once again, looking slyly at Xiao Lin, she laughed and answered her own question, Non-humans!

Huh? I am only a talent user.

Talent depends on a persons blood lineage and genes. However, your talent is not as simple as genetics. Its source is the soul itself. Do you understand what I mean? There can be countless genetic talent users, but soul talent users are a rare find throughout the entirety of human history.

Silverlight pursed her lower lip, seeming a little distressed about how to properly explain the matter. She finally sighed and said, I have only seen descriptions of the soul talent users in very few books. Soul talent users are special. They possess unparalleled abilities, far surpassing the abilities of any other talented person. However, this also comes at a price. The excessively strong abilities of soul talent users would cause them to be rejected by the law. As their powers grow stronger, the strength of repulsion will also increase. The wall of time is an object that is a condensation of the law. It may be immune to damage from all physical spells, but it is not immune to the law itself.

So you are saying that I am actually a bomb. If I get close to the wall of time, I will cause the wall of time to shatter? Xiao Lin laughed bitterly. This was not a good effect.

Not quite.

Huh?

Silverlight was a little ashamed. It is because the wall of time was damaged before. When Poseidon finally called upon the powers of Heaven and Earth to destroy my homeland, it actually caused significant damage to the wall of time. You happened to be the last straw that broke the camels back. So, I apologize.

Xiao Lin did not actually mean to put the blame on her. He was quickly able to guess Silverlights thoughts and asked, You want to go back and have a look, right?

Yes. I may have an endless life on Planet Norma, but that does not make me happy at all. I was missing Earth all the time, missing those dear to me. At first, I thought that I would never go back to my old life, but you showed me hope.

So, from then on, you were actually trying to set me up? You had always planned on following me from the start to pass over to Earth. Thereafter, you looked for an opportunity to find the ruins of Atlantis, cast the Time Rewind spell to get me into the corridor of time, to finally break the wall of time, and get back to your home?

Silverlight did not deny this. She paused for a moment before adding, At first, I wanted to just cross over, and then send you all back, leaving myself to get lost in the endless corridor of time and space. However, everything that transpired later, I did not expect at all.

Xiao Lins mouth was agape. He ought to be furious for being used by someone else, but he just could not get angry. Especially before the face of Silverlight at this moment, he did not know what to say.

Silverlights initiative actually caused Xiao Lin a lot of trouble. Facing an opponent of Poseidons level was no joke. The final result was also decent, as Poseidon was successfully sealed. Xiao Lin then waved his hand in a dramatic fashion. You dont have to mention things that have passed, Silverlight. Is there really no way to keep you alive?

Silverlight seemed a little surprised, but also looked reassured. She shook her head gently and said, The law of life cannot be violated. Im glad you said that. You know, earlier, when Onyxia told me that there were survivors from my race, I was really happy.

The concept of race was very peculiar. People did not seem to care about their race at all in normal times, but when a race was really on the verge of extinction, the attachment to ones race suddenly became very intense.

The faint sense of loneliness that hung around Silverlight had actually disappeared. Hearing her talk about this topic once again, Xiao Lin was taken aback. He suddenly understood. With a sense of bittersweetness, he said, If there were really survivors of the Atlantis race from that time, then they should be the firestarter to light the torch of the continuation of human civilization. Reproduction and development will carry on for generations If thats the case, some of my distant ancestors may actually be your old acquaintances?

Silverlight could not help but laugh. After laughing, she tilted her head and thought out loud, So, I could be your ancestor. Then, as a reward for your effort in these times, and as an advanced compensation, I will give you two things.

The first being that I am leaving Big Bai in your care. When you return from my spiritual world, you will find this stone on me. Summoning Big Bai consumes some mental strength. The little guy is amazing, and I believe it will be helpful to you.

Seeing Silverlights determined look, Xiao Lin could only nod with a little sadness.

As for the other one Silverlight suddenly stood up and walked toward him mid-sentence, pointed her finger, and pressed it on Xiao Lins forehead.

Suddenly, Xiao Lin felt a sharp pain spread from his brain to the whole of his body. It was the kind of pain that went straight into his bones and almost made him faint on the spot. Xiao Lin panted as he waited for the pain to subside. Astonished, he was about to question Silverlight when he felt a strange sensation. He subconsciously reached out and touched his forehead. There was an ovular bump on his forehead where it was once smooth. Looking at Silverlight, there was now nothing left on the old womans forehead.
