Witch Special

Half an hour later, the Lady of Light delivered a flower seed locked inside a silver ball of light to Lin Zhenxi. Lin Zhenxi held the ball of light, which had blocked the flow of time, with a face full of confusion that was difficult to describe.

She finally asked what exactly was the principle behind Kaguya Horaiyama's "Eternity and Moment" magic, and whether anyone else could possibly learn it. She also had a talent for time magic, but had never figured out how to use it. Now that she had finally found someone who could manipulate time, she naturally had to seize the opportunity to ask them questions.

Anyway, Lin Zhenxi puts herself in the position of a student. If she doesn't understand, she can ask. She can ask Patchouli or ask Kaguya Houraisan. What if she can get an answer? That would be a good thing.

Although they may not want to admit it, Lin Zhenxi is indeed a generation younger than them, and the age difference is huge, so Lin Zhenxi does not feel any psychological pressure to ask questions to anyone she meets.

And it seems that Kaguya Houraisan is not the kind of person who is self-centered. Although she was surprised that Lin Zhenxi was interested in her magic of "Eternity and Moment", she still gave Lin Zhenxi a sample of the magic of "Eternity and Moment" for free.

Yes, that's the silver ball of light she's holding now. If Lin Zhenxi hadn't mentioned this, she would have directly obtained the Udumbara flower seeds. However, Lin Zhenxi mentioned her interest in the magic of "Eternity and Moment," and Kaguya Houraisan used the magic of "Eternity and Moment" to seal the flower seeds. Only when Lin Zhenxi was able to break through the outer shell could she obtain the flower seeds inside.

If she had the ability to break through that magical blockade, she must have a deeper understanding of the magic of "eternity and moment".

So Lin Zhenxi is feeling very uncomfortable now. If she hadn't mentioned this matter, would she have been able to get the Udumbara flower seeds directly? A small wishing machine, eh? Making the Udumbara flower bloom should be easier than collecting all seven Dragon Balls, right?

As a result, because she mentioned her interest in the magic of "Eternity and Moment," the Udumbara flower seeds became sealed decorations, only to be viewed but not touched. Even with a backward thought, it was clear that "Eternity and Moment" was not a magic that was easy to comprehend. In exchanging the Udumbara flower seeds for a sample of "Eternity and Moment," Lin Zhenxi didn't know whether she had made a profit or a loss.

Never mind. It was a reward, not something she had paid for. Whatever Kaguya Hourai gave her, it was her freedom. Lin Zhenxi, who had gotten something for free, had no right to be picky.

Lin Zhenxi clutched the silver ball of light in his hand and held it in front of his eyes. Looking at the completely still and ordinary-looking seeds inside, he really couldn't figure out what was so special about this thing.

Lin Zhenxi felt that this thing was like a glass ball, with a completely transparent surface that looked crystal clear. However, she knew that there was a very sophisticated magical structure inside it, and what she had to do now was to study the composition, structure and production process of this glass ball.

Seeing with the eyes alone was not enough. Lin Zhenxi didn't even know how to find a breakthrough. She had no idea at all...

Lin Zhenxi looked at it for a while, then sighed and stuffed the ball of light into the space cube. That was good, one more thing to study.

Hmm? Lin Zhenxi turned her head and looked at her hand, which had already hit the flat surface of the Space Cube. She grabbed the silver ball of light and pushed it into the Space Cube again, but the flat surface of the Space Cube remained motionless. Unlike usual, it easily allowed Lin Zhenxi to put things in.

What's wrong? Is it broken? Lin Zhenxi picked up a clod of earth from the ground and threw it into the space cube. It fit in smoothly.

The space cube is not broken, which means that the light ball cannot be put into the space cube.

Why does this happen?

Lin Zhenxi immersed his consciousness into his body, established a direct connection with the space magic, and then repeated the previous process again. He checked the real-time status report submitted by the space cube and learned the reason why the Udumbara flower seeds could not be placed in the space cube.

The reason is not with the Udumbara flower seeds, but with the outer layer of "eternity and moment".

The time in the space cube is still. No matter what is put in, its state will not change, no matter whether it is hot food or boiling magma, it will remain the same when you take it out, without any change.

What about "eternity and a moment"? It's a subtle state of quasi-stillness. While objects in this state appear frozen in time, their state never changes, they actually remain in this state. However, within this magical state, time continues to flow.

A moment is also a unit of time, measuring ten to the power of -15 (10^(-15)), or one trillionth. This is an extremely short period of time, completely imperceptible to humans. The magic of "eternity and a moment" essentially swaps the concepts of "eternity" and "a moment," making "eternity" fly by in "a moment," or stretching "a moment" to the length of "eternity."

However, this still doesn't mean time is completely still. Even at one trillionth, time still operates according to its own unidirectional, linear flow. Therefore, this conflicts with the "absolute stillness" of time in the Space Cube.

It was clearly a space-based weapon, but it ended up resisting an object due to a conflict in the rules of time. This development of events surprised Lin Zhenxi.

Time and space, these two original magical attributes of Lin Zhenxi actually intersected in this unexpected place, and brought Lin Zhenxi a lot of inspiration.

It turns out that the way space unfolds can also reveal the differences in time. I unexpectedly learned some knowledge that I'm not sure if it's useful or not.

But now the problem facing Lin Zhenxi became: she couldn't carry this ball of light everywhere she went, right? If the Space Cube couldn't fit in, where should she put it?

After a moment of worry, Lin Zhenxi thought of how Patchouli had previously used the Witch's Book to contain the entire city of Haimen. Even if sealed within the pages of a book, time within it could flow normally, even like a progress bar, being dragged back and forth at will, freezing at any time.

Come and try to use the Witch's Book to seal the magic of "Eternity and Moment", just like Teacher Patchouli did!

Even Yanyan herself said that the Witch's Book itself is an excellent sealing container, but Lin Zhenxi has never discovered this feature of it.

Lin Zhenxi pulled the pendant out of her collar, unsealed it into the Witch's Book, spread the Witch's Book to a blank page, and then placed the light ball on the book.

Then he stared at these two things and began to use his eyes to exert force.

Go in, go in, go in.

Of course, it wouldn't work that easily. Neither the Witch's Book nor the ball of light on it was indifferent to Lin Zhenxi's wishes.

Tsk, what's the matter with you guys? When Lin Zhenxi got angry, he...

Just pull the black cat out of the witch's book and give it a good beating.

After waking up Black Cat, who had been dozing off inside the Witch Book, Lin Zhenxi told her about her plan. The Witch Book was Black Cat's home, and she was the one who knew the truth best... no, the cat. Now, Lin Zhenxi wanted to implement a new feature in the Witch Book, and who else could she ask if not Black Cat?

The black cat floated in the air, hugged its chest with its two front paws, and swung its tail, "emmmm" for a while, then spread its two paws to the sides and said, "Cats don't know either."

Lin Zhenxi:?

"Oh no, Yanyan, didn't you tell me before that the Witch's Book can be used to seal things?"

"Yes, meow, but how to implement it specifically requires the user to explore it on his own, meow." The black cat stretched in the air, then changed his posture, rested his head on his paws, lay in the air, looked at Lin Zhenxi leisurely and said.

"Isn't that why I came to ask you because I couldn't find the answer?"

"But Maki, have you really explored it carefully?" Yanyan asked back, causing Lin Maki's hand, which was about to reach for the back of the black cat's neck, to stop in mid-air.

She seemed to have tried to use her eyes to command the two things to merge into one, but after failing, she did not make any other attempts. Instead, she directly pulled the black cat out and tried to get the correct answer.

It seems that Black Cat has no intention of indulging Lin Zhenxi's bad habit, and the answer to this question is actually not difficult. As long as Lin Zhenxi studies it carefully, he should be able to find it without much effort.

Okay, there is really no reason for Lin Zhenxi to blame Black Cat for doing something wrong in this matter, so it’s okay for her to figure it out herself.

So Lin Zhenxi put the light ball containing the Udumbara flower seeds aside, held the Witch's Book, and began to study it carefully.

If you want the Witch Book to realize its containment function, the Witch Book is the key.

Well, let's communicate first and tell the Witch Book your thoughts clearly.

Black Cat was the spirit of the Witch Book, so she naturally had a way of knowing what Lin Zhenxi was doing with it. She nodded, but couldn't help but interrupt, "That's right, meow, we're going in the right direction."

You say you won't participate, but you still can't help but offer guidance...

Black Cat's confirmation gave Lin Zhenxin a huge boost of confidence. She then called up the weapon information of the Witch's Book and began to read the feedback information on the interactive interface.

Well... no matter what type of weapons issued by the company, the core information display is actually quite intuitive.
