Chapter 329: Chapter 319: Divine Chosen Space
Upon reading the description of the attribute beads, everyone marveled at their miraculous nature, yet no one was curious about who owned the four that had already been found.
Are you kidding? No one who’d survived this long was a fool.
A single Attribute Pearl was worth ten thousand attribute values, and the attribute values of the top two people on the leaderboard were on clear display.
However, that still left one pearl unaccounted for, unfused by whoever had found it.
But since it had already been found, its fusion was only a matter of time. The others had no hope of getting it, so there was no point in dwelling on it.
The only one left to fight for was this last pearl with the spatial attribute. But would it really be their turn?
A question mark formed in everyone’s mind.
But soon, they found the answer they were looking for in the information that followed.
It turned out that the remaining Space Attribute Pearl had originally been hidden in some corner of the world. However, because it hadn’t been discovered by humanity before the Ice Age reboot...
...at the very moment the Hell Era arrived and the world was thrown into upheaval, the energy from the Space Attribute Pearl activated something else, something terrifying: the Divine Chosen Space.
The three words "Divine Chosen Space" made Tang Mo’s head spin. ’This world is becoming more and more different from the one I knew. It feels even more fantastical. Is this even the real world anymore?’
The Divine Chosen Space was a parallel dimension activated by Spatial Energy.
In truth, countless parallel dimensions already existed in the universe. Every different change that occurred from one second to the next constituted a different parallel dimension.
But although humans had always had the concept of parallel dimensions, no one had ever been able to find an entrance to one.
And now, what that surge of Space Power had activated was a door to a parallel dimension.
Furthermore, because the parallel dimensions activated this time were also influenced by the energy that came with the Hell Era, each one was apocalypse-related—a parallel dimension set against an apocalyptic backdrop.
The subsequent information also stated that to prevent the Ice Age from rebooting, all five Attribute Pearls had to be gathered.
And only the person who gathered and fused all five attribute beads could restore the world to its original state.
The only way to obtain the final Attribute Pearl, the Space Pearl, was to pass the trials of the Divine Chosen Space.
Everyone clicked on the detailed information about the Divine Chosen Space. It explained that to obtain the Space Attribute Pearl, one must enter three parallel dimensions and complete the respective tasks within each.
The first person to complete the tasks in all three dimensions would receive the Space Pearl and could fuse with it immediately.
Because all the parallel dimensions had apocalyptic settings, the risks involved were immense—even more lethal than the current freezing climate.
Death within a parallel dimension was true death; both body and spirit would vanish completely.
Failing to complete a task meant being trapped in that parallel dimension for eternity.
The method to enter a Trial Space was also quite simple. One just had to arrange some Energy Barytes into the pattern shown on the Divine Chosen Space page and stand inside it to be randomly sent to a Trial Space.
On the Divine Chosen Space page on everyone’s ID Watch, their name was displayed, followed by a "0/3" indicator.
This was easy enough to understand. The only exception was Tang Mo; her page showed a "1/3" indicator.
This meant Tang Mo had already completed one Trial Space task.
Tang Mo stared at the "1" and quickly understood what was going on.
’A parallel dimension... Isn’t that the space I entered before, in the Apocalypse Garbage Dump? I did complete a task there to change that world.’
At this thought, Tang Mo, who had been feeling down because her bead map was now useless, instantly cheered up.
’Being one dimension ahead of everyone else gives me a head start. There’s a great chance I can be the first to complete all three tasks!’
There was a lot of information, but Tang Mo still spotted a potential loophole. The watch’s information specified that *the person* who gathered and fused all five attribute beads could restore the world.
’So what if the five beads aren’t gathered by a single person, but by different people?’
’Could the Ice Age’s reboot still be stopped then?’
Although there was no answer to this question for now, the Space Pearl hadn’t even been obtained yet. Wasting time and energy thinking about it was a waste of life. Time was precious, so Tang Mo quickly pushed the question to the back of her mind.
Besides the information about the Hell Era and the Divine Chosen Space, there were also details on the various uses of Energy Barytes.
Tang Mo had already guessed most of it; they could be used as a substitute for energy sources and so on.
These Crystal Stones could indeed replace energy sources, but High-level Crystal Stones were extremely rare. Not everyone could afford to use them to generate heat.
The amount of information from the updated watch was enormous, and everyone fell silent as they processed it.
Even though it was the Hell Era, within Tang Mo’s protective circle, the threat of mutant beasts was gone. For many, aside from hunger, it was a relatively safe haven.
’Parallel dimensions with apocalyptic settings held even more unknown dangers. Could we really make it out of there alive on our own?’
’But if we don’t go to the parallel dimensions to try and survive, how long will our current food supplies last? How long can Tang Mo protect us?’
’The Ice Age is rebooting. If the Five Beads aren’t gathered, this world will only get worse, never better.’
’Besides, Tang Mo... she’s definitely going to the Trial Space, right?’
’If she goes, her protective circle will vanish. What will we do then? How will we survive?’
’But should we stop Tang Mo? And could we even if we tried?’
’If the Space Pearl isn’t obtained and the Ice Age reboots, will we be able to survive anyway?’
Countless unanswered questions swirled in everyone’s mind.
Entering the Divine Chosen Space was a suicide mission, but staying outside was just waiting to die.
It seemed this world hadn’t left a single path to survival for ordinary people like them.
Unconsciously, everyone’s gaze focused on Tang Mo.
At that moment, Tang Mo was still holding Jingjing, carefully studying the Divine Chosen Space page, trying to analyze what kind of tasks the dimensions would contain.
’If all the tasks are like the one in the Apocalypse Garbage Dump, I’m going to work myself to death.’
’There’s also the matter of my Power Pearl. I’ve had it for a long time but still haven’t fused with it.’
’Should I fuse with the Power Pearl first and then go to the Divine Chosen Space, which would make things easier for me? Or should I look for an opportunity to fuse with it inside the Divine Chosen Space?’
Tang Mo fell into deep thought, stroking Jingjing’s soft fur as she pondered.
