Online Game: You Call Him A Newbie? - Chapter 499
499 Lightning in the Space Storm
Seeing that Lin Feng was staring at Landry’s hand, everyone also looked over. However, Landry’s hand was empty. What was Lin Feng looking at?
Landry then smiled and asked, “Fellow Daoist Lin, what do you see?”
“Lines, many lines,” Lin Feng replied.
The others were bewildered; they couldn’t see anything.
Little Black sighed, realizing that these two were acting strangely again, lost in their own world.
Landry was still smiling. “Apart from the lines?”
“Apart from the lines?” Lin Feng scrutinized and noticed numerous threads converging in Landry’s hand, almost forming a tangled mass.
But despite the tangle, it didn’t appear disorderly.
An idea struck Lin Feng. He followed those threads with his gaze and saw that they connected to the people trailing behind him.
Then, he focused his attention on the tangled ball of threads, but still couldn’t discern much.
Landry chuckled. “Your mental power has some unique abilities, right? Try using it to probe.”
Lin Feng’s curiosity was piqued. His mental strength surged into the ball of threads.
Suddenly, his ears were filled with a cacophony of noises, and various images flooded his mind. It was almost overwhelming.
Landry quickly advised, “Don’t try to see everything. Focus on just one thread.”
Lin Feng nodded and directed his mental strength to a single thread. He glimpsed images of a Flying Tiger’s growth, from infancy to adulthood, and memories of venturing into a level one world.
He quickly turned his attention to the Flying Tiger and realized it was trailing behind the carriage.
At this moment, the Flying Tiger and the divine level experts of the clan were following closely behind the carriage. When they saw Lin Feng look back from the carriage in the distance, they were startled.
This was because Lin Feng’s look seemed to penetrate their secrets.
What was going on?
Lin Feng’s mind raced. Then, he turned around and ignored the Flying Tiger. Instead, after pondering for a long time, he looked at Landry.
“Is this the karma law you mentioned?”
Landry nodded and smiled. “Interesting, isn’t it?”
Lin Feng was somewhat shocked. “Is this law so terrifying? It can actually see someone else’s life?”
Landry shook his head. “This is not only the effect of the karma law. It also has the effect of rewinding time. However, it’s not possible to see other people’s past at any time.”
“First of all, you need to start with the karma law. You need to have enough karma with that person. Then, you have to figure out the thread and use time to follow the thread. Only then can you see it.”
Landry spoke in a complicated manner, but Lin Feng was somewhat enlightened. However, at the same time, he was somewhat shocked.
This ability to spy on others’ past was too terrifying.
This was because if one mastered this ability, others would no longer have any secrets in front of them. From their birth to the other party standing in front of them, they would master everything.
Lin Feng followed the thread he had seen just now and looked at the Flying Tiger. He saw that there was indeed a ball of thread in the other party’s body.
The balls of threads were dense and chaotic. Many threads even separated from them and connected to the distant void.
Lin Feng knew that that was the karma line between the other party and others.
However, Landry had said that he had to sort out the other party’s karma line before he could see the other party’s life. How long would this take?
Then, he came to a realization. Time law!
He only needed to reverse time to dismantle those threads one by one and then reconstruct them again. Wouldn’t that be the other party’s entire life?
He asked Landry, “What kind of connection do I need to establish with someone to affect these rules?”
The karma law was not obvious, but it was strange and terrifying. Lin Feng was indeed tempted.
If he mastered this ability, would those people who hid something from him still be able to hide it?
Landry smiled and said, “You need a significant karmic connection that can alter their fate. Just having a single thread won’t be enough to influence their entire ball of threads.”
“For example, now, they’re following behind me. Their life and death have changed because of me. When I appear, they follow. This is the cause, and this cause can be controlled by me. I can decide their life and death. Then, I can affect their ball of thread.”
Lin Feng was deep in thought. Then, he was somewhat disappointed. It seemed that this could only be used by the strong against the weak?
The karma of life and death had to be completely controlled by him.
For example, if one placed a knife on the other party’s neck for no reason, this did not count. It had to be traceable.
In other words, something needed to have happened for him to be able to kill the other party. This was considered karma.
Landry seemed to know that Lin Feng had underestimated this karma law, so he said, “Other than life and death, there are actually other reasons. For instance, having partners, master-disciple relationships, or even parent-child connections can be strong enough karma.
“If the other party’s ball of thread is small, sometimes, you can also pull it with a casual karma thread. For example, if the other party is a newborn baby and doesn’t have any ball of thread, you can pull it at will.”
Lin Feng nodded, realizing the implications. However, wouldn’t it be bad for him to rashly pry into the past of the people around him?
Then a thought struck him. He looked at Landry, as if questioning something.
