"A distorted... Time Law?"
Chu Sheng was stunned.
He had at least comprehended the Time Realm, after all.
Yet he hadn't felt the Time Law here being distorted at all.
Xue explained, "Let's compare time to a river flowing forward."
"It's divided into three parts: the past, the present, and the future."
"When we first entered, the time we were in was the 'present'."
"After we came in, someone downstream—in the 'future'—stirred the river's water."
"This caused the section of the river we're in to start flowing backward."
"Without realizing it, we returned to the 'past'."
"And the person distorting the Time Law has been watching us from the 'future' all along."
Realization dawned on Chu Sheng.
'No wonder I couldn't find a single soul even after searching for so long with Chaos True Sight.'
'So that person isn't even on the same timeline as us!'
Looking at the endless stream of Zombies swarming around, Chu Sheng finally understood why they had suddenly appeared.
