Chapter 293 - The Tower of Heaven is Really Killing U (1/2)

Thousands of years ago, there was no industrial pollution. When night fell, stars in the sky were like gems set on black cloth.

Lin Luoran is in a relatively clean and tidy room in a group of low houses made of mud. She looks outside the window and sees an oasis in the earth-yellow city with so many mud houses under the stars. A higher wall encircles a higher land in the city. That is the palace of the Neo-Babylonian Empire.

“Do you mean that the test behind the gate we entered is a restoration of real scenes in the Neo-Babylonian Empire, 600 BC?”

Lin Luoran caresses the asleep cyan little fox. Stars are s.h.i.+ning. Goldie stands at the window and looks into the distance with a lot of confusion in his eyes.

Yang Lisha paces in the room, “We are brought back to the Neo-Babylonian Empire around 600 BC by the Tower of Heaven. In a more popular term of human beings, we pa.s.sed through time to the past.”

Lin Luoran refutes immediately, “No matter how powerful is the Tower of Heaven, it can only do s.p.a.ce jump and interstellar transmission.”

Yang Lisha spreads a piece of thin silk on the stone bed and sits down, “I’m afraid I have to give you a lesson on physics. It is said in Nature, Wenzi that the universe consists of all the histories and places ever exist. The combination of time, s.p.a.ce, substances and energy forms the universe. Time and s.p.a.ce have always been inseparable. Since the interstellar transmission circle can transmit cultivators through the vast universe, it is possible for it to send us back to 600 BC.”

It’s shameful to be taught by a monster. Lin Luoran touches the mud wall in front of her. The uneven wall leaves damp mud that feels so real on her fingertips.

“I heard you called this test the restoration of real scenes. Have you taken this test before?”

Yang Lisha nods, “The so-called test is just the Tower of Heaven’s evaluation of whether the person entering the tower has abilities to pa.s.s through the interstellar transmission circle. I took the test once before and was brought back to the golden era of Huaxia’s Tang Dynasty. So, this restoration of real scenes is supposed to be chosen according to your personal abilities.”

According to my personal abilities? How can it be possible? Lin Luoran doesn’t even get a clue of Yang Lisha’s abilities. She definitely pa.s.ses the middle level of Laying Foundation. Even the crazy Taoist whom Lin Luoran thinks has extremely high abilities has to escape under the cover of closed-door training after stealing Reiki materials from her. Thinking of these, Lin Luoran takes a deep breath.

“Do you mean that people coming into the tower will not encounter the same test twice?”

Yang Lisha nods. Since she has already returned to the Tang Dynasty, of course, she will never be given the same restoration of real scenes again, which means that the city of Babylon they are in only shows up because of Lin Luoran.

Yang Lisha stares at her suspiciously, “Honestly, I’m more curious than you to know why the Tower of Heaven chose you as the main person to complete the test and bring us back here.”

Lin Luoran doesn’t know what to say. She guesses that it is because of the pearl she wears on her hand, but how can she tell Yang Lisha a reason like this? She can only change the subject casually, “Wait, back to the restoration of real scenes you just said. Is it because you once lived in the prosperous Tang Dynasty that you were brought back to that era? Why are we brought back to the Neo-Babylonian Empire? Don’t say it’s me. I am afraid that even the ancestors of the Lins who lived hundreds of years ago hadn’t been to Babylon. After all, this is the Mesopotamian plain in West Asia.”

In 600 BC, Huaxia was still in the Spring and Autumn Period. Even if the ancestors of the Lins lost their minds, they could not walk to West Asia.

Yang Lisha has never laughed since she comes here. Of course, Lin Lisha hasn’t seen her dimples either. “The Tower of Heaven brought us back here is surly because of your will.”

Her words almost make Lin Luoran faint. Because of her will?

She did look up at the starry sky in front of the tower and question the historical mysteries. The huge shadow of truth made her flinch, and she didn’t dare to think more about it. Is it because she was such a coward at that time that the Tower of Heaven brings her back to the era she thought about to solve the mysteries herself?

Lin Luoran wants to cry, but she doesn’t have any tears. She feels worried now, like Yang Lisha.
