Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic Chapter 780 - 393: Time-Space Mysteries, Split?_2
It was only later that he understood, such worries were unnecessary.
When the two Qi Feihang’s memories resonated and connected across time and space, there was only one Qi Feihang.
In that instant, Qi Feihang was like a peculiar higher-dimensional being.
At that time, Qi Feihang had two bodies simultaneously.
One body was a hundred years ago, and one body was a hundred years later.
The two bodies spanned time and space, sharing one consciousness, sharing all memories.
So there was no conflict of consciousness.
However, this does not mean that this time travel had no hidden dangers.
The hidden danger lies in the fact that history has been changed!
Qi Feihang’s consciousness brought memories from a hundred years later back in time, altering history.
Even if he did nothing, he was already completely different from the Qi Feihang in the original history.
Thus, in the "past," there existed two histories and two different Qi Feihangs.
Of course, these two Qi Feihangs were in different parts of history and would not meet or conflict.
And Su Yu instructed Qi Feihang, after traveling back, not to make any unnecessary moves, letting everything unfold according to the original historical trajectory.
This way, the only one affected by the changed history would be Qi Feihang himself, without impacting others.
Then, ten years ago, after Su Yu descended on this planet, Qi Feihang quietly contacted him and told him everything.
Thus, Su Yu’s history was also changed, adding another version of Su Yu’s history.
This version of Su Yu also went through history step by step, trying not to change anyone else’s past.
Until just now, both strands of history reached the "now," to the point of the experiment.
The other Su Yu, however, made a completely different choice and had Qi Feihang escape before the experiment.
This arranged escape was also a time-space experiment.
Previously, Qi Feihang traveling back had changed history.
But during the experiment, Qi Feihang’s escape changed the "now," altering reality.
Su Yu wanted to see, if "history" reached the "now" and was altered afterward, which version would prevail?
Now there was only one, at least before Su Yu, there was only one choice, surely only one would be affirmed.
Qi Feihang’s escape made the experiment impossible to proceed.
Was it that his escape succeeded, or the experiment succeeded?
The result was that the experiment succeeded, but within the resonance chamber, there was no trace of Qi Feihang.
This is because the two histories had fused.
Allowing Qi Feihang’s escape to succeed, and also Su Yu’s experiment to succeed.
The two different histories converged at the "now."
The two Su Yu’s also fused, acquiring all the memories.
Even their strength increased.
Su Yu, through this experiment, gained entirely new data, confirming some hypotheses, it was indeed a huge success.
However, Su Yu felt not only joy but also some gloominess.
Because the mysteries of time and space were beyond his expectations.
Although time travel was achieved, it harbored great risks.
"It seems that within one timeline, the same person is actually a unity. They form a line in time and there is no conflict..."
Su Yu mused to himself.
According to Qi Feihang’s experience, even if he traveled back and contacted his past self, it was still only him, there would not be an extra Qi Feihang.
Qi Feihang from a hundred years ago and now are the same person, the same consciousness.
The two bodies at different points in time are like a person’s two limbs, slightly different, but governed by one consciousness.
If Qi Feihang were stronger, contacting his self from ten years ago, twenty years ago...
Even every point in time.
Countless Qi Feihangs forming a line in time, sharing consciousness, would make him a peerless being fully mastering the Power of Time.
Almost detaching from the timeline, fully grasping past and future.
However, that realm is only theoretically feasible, even Su Yu is far from it, let alone Qi Feihang.
Moreover, to achieve that realm, freely traveling through time and space, one must solve an important hidden danger.
That is altering history!
If Su Yu also conducted the experiment, sending his consciousness back in time, there wouldn’t be consciousness conflict, no two Su Yu’s fighting.
But sending consciousness back would inevitably change history.
Even if Su Yu performed intentionally, trying not to change history, it couldn’t be perfect.
There would definitely be changes.
Even a tiny bit, a single cell, a molecular change, still counts as a change.
This results in two different histories, two different timelines.
In these two histories, there are two Su Yu’s.
These two Su Yu’s do not meet in history, like parallel lines that do not intersect.
But when reaching the "now," the two histories would merge, the two Su Yu’s would become one again, thus possessing two sets of memories.
Both histories are the "past," and the "now" is singular, needing to merge into one.
This leads to a huge risk.
Su Yu slightly altering history caused a slight difference and vagueness during the merge of the two Su Yu’s.
What if the two Su Yu’s were too different, unable to merge?
For instance, if one Su Yu from either history was tainted by something, his nature drastically changed.
Or what if one of the Su Yu’s from a history perished?
Then, at the "now," could the two Su Yu’s still merge?
Or would there be a complete split?
These various possibilities made Su Yu couldn’t help but have a headache, finding it difficult to discern clearly.
Now he could already achieve time travel, only needing some technological improvements to go back himself as well.
But each time he travels, history will be altered, causing a split in history.
When merging, these changes and splits will increase the difficulty of merging.
This fusion was smooth, even benefiting from it.
The next time might not be so.
Perhaps it would really split into two Su Yu’s.
Even...
"It may have already split! For example... how did this timeline’s Planet Governor Su Yu come to be?"
Su Yu’s expression was very grim.
He remembered that there was also a Su Yu in this timeline, who was the Planet Governor.
Originally, Su Yu wondered if it was the same name.
Now Su Yu suspected if it might be from some time-space history fusion that didn’t succeed, leading to the splitting of another one?
Although this was Su Yu’s first time performing a time experiment.
Others or other things, however, might not be the same.
If others or some other thing also conduct time experiments, heavily alter history, it would also result in two Su Yu’s, or even more.
If these Su Yu’s were too different, it could lead to a split!
This kind of thing is totally indefensible.
Su Yu didn’t even know how many times he had split? How many Su Yu’s there were?
And at this moment, Su Yu recalled another matter, which was the Galaxy Battle Armor!
When the Galaxy Battle Armor traveled back initially, there were two of them! They even met each other.
Now, Su Yu had to face such a situation too.
Perhaps one day, he would meet another version of himself, such as that Planet Governor Su Yu.
Although the Galaxy Battle Armor crossed back from the "future," causing a split.
Su Yu’s situation was due to historical changes, somewhat different from the Galaxy Battle Armor.
But there were many similarities involved in the mysteries of time-space.
When Su Yu achieved time travel, he imagined it to be wonderfully perfect, freely changing the past, almost god-like.
But now that it was finally realized, Su Yu discovered that this matter wasn’t as wonderful at all, rather full of eerie danger.
"In any case, the experiment must continue, the mysteries of time-space must be thoroughly studied."
Su Yu made up his mind.
This matter, although extremely risky with numerous hidden dangers, must be done.
Moreover, precisely because of its danger, Su Yu must do it, must grasp its mysteries.
Otherwise, next time he faces such power, he wouldn’t be able to resist at all, not even knowing what happened.
