I traveled through time and space and became a drama queen in the harem!

The game between gods and demons, the rebellion of the soul

Lin Chen opened her eyes again, and everything before her was completely different. She stood on a boundless purple ocean. The water was no longer water, but a fluid substance composed of countless fragments. These fragments, like the rupture of time, like forgotten memories, overlapped and intertwined, constantly surging. There was no sun or stars in the sky, only a huge moon, a strange red, like a giant eye stained with blood, staring at her intently.

"Where...is this place?" Lin Chen narrowed her eyes, feeling an inexplicable sense of oppression. Something seemed to be watching her from all around her, every fragment watching her, waiting for her to make a move.

Suddenly, the blood-red moon shook violently, a massive crack appeared, and a golden beam of light shot out, piercing directly through Lin Chen's body. She didn't react at all. It was as if the beam of light had pierced through her soul, splitting her existence in two. Her body became transparent, like a cloud of mist, ready to blow away at any moment.

"You're finally here." A smiling voice echoed in the air. The voice was familiar yet strange, as if it came from the depths of her memory. "We've been waiting for you for a long time, Lin Chen."

Lin Chen's body was suddenly pulled into the air by a powerful suction force. Her feet left the surface of the sea, and her entire body was suspended in the air. The debris around her swirled faster and faster, as if she had entered an inescapable whirlpool.

"Who...are you?" Lin Chen's voice trembled slightly, but she tried to remain calm. She knew that this experience was far from over, and this change seemed even more difficult to understand.

"Who?" the voice echoed again, a hint of contempt and amusement. "I am an existence you cannot comprehend, beyond all you know. From time immemorial, I have watched you, watching every step you take, witnessing your shattering and rebirth time and again." The voice held a mysterious power, as if controlling everything about her. "Do you really think these reincarnations are just coincidence? Is this pain and struggle simply your own frustration?"

Lin Chen's heart trembled. She felt a powerful force descending from the air, a force that strangely resonated with the power within her. She was no longer a lost being, but a soul gradually awakening. She began to recall everything that had happened, the countless times she had been broken and reborn, the mysterious light, and the moment of awakening.

"Could it be that all this... is fate's arrangement?" Lin Chen whispered to himself.

"Fate?" The voice chuckled. "What do you think fate is? It's just a game between me and my kind. You're just a piece on the board, and where you go is determined by me."

Lin Chen's heart was in turmoil. She didn't believe what was said, but an invisible force within her consciousness told her that it wasn't a lie. She felt a heaviness she had never felt before. This wasn't just about her personal struggle, but about the entire universe, about the truth of all existence.

"If you truly control my fate, then why was I able to awaken? Why was I able to break free from these constraints?" Lin Chen's voice suddenly became firm, anger rising from the depths of her heart. She clenched her fists, and the power within her body began to surge involuntarily, causing the surrounding debris to vibrate under her control.

"Awakening?" The voice was filled with sarcasm. "Do you think awakening can break everything? You just think you've taken center stage, that you've mastered all the puzzles, but you're far from enough. The power of your awakening is nothing compared to mine, the difference between an ant and a god."

Before she could finish her words, Lin Chen's body was suddenly suppressed by an invisible force, and the entire space froze instantly. Her body could hardly move, and her heart felt as if it was being squeezed. She felt an unprecedented sense of oppression, as if the gravity of the entire universe was concentrated on her in an instant.

At this moment, the voice sounded again, with a relaxed tone: "You don't understand. You have never truly understood the situation you find yourself in. Your so-called shattering and rebirth are nothing more than toys in our hands. All your efforts are just repeated resets until you finally reach our predetermined goal. You are just a pawn on the chessboard we control."

Lin Chen's heartbeat suddenly stopped, and her eyes went blank. All those experiences she had believed to be real, turned out to be nothing more than manipulation by some force. Her life, all her efforts and struggles, had been a deception.

"If you wish to break free from this, you must break the true shackles." The voice suddenly grew serious. "Not just these empty spaces, but the shackles deep within your heart. You have always believed you were escaping your fate, but in reality, you have always been fulfilling the rules we designed. You will never escape unless you fundamentally destroy yourself, destroy what you believe yourself to be."

After hearing this, Lin Chen's heart was shaken even more. She seemed to understand something, but she couldn't believe it. Destroy herself? Was this the only way out?

In the endless fog, Lin Chen's consciousness began to twist and disintegrate, and her body began to be unable to bear this power. Her heart was swallowed by a huge fear, as if everything about her was collapsing and all of her existence was being destroyed.

Suddenly, a strong light burst out from her body again, breaking the darkness around her. This light did not come from the outside world, but burst out from deep within her own body. Her power has surpassed the rules of this world and all limitations.

"If I destroy myself, I will disappear completely." Lin Chen's voice was calm and firm. "But if I don't destroy myself, I will be bound to this game forever and will never be able to escape."

She took a deep breath, her consciousness becoming ethereal. She didn't choose to escape, nor did she choose to destroy herself. She chose to transcend everything, break free from constraints, and push through boundaries.
