I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

"Spatial teleportation, can it surpass the Safe Zone?"

He... wasn’t sure.

If he failed the attempt, the light screen of the Safe Zone would kill him!

But once the idea arose, it spread wildly like cancer cells, eventually infecting every neuron in his brain.

Even his essence cells were infected.

If... if he could surpass the Safe Zone, what would happen?!

Although the Rize people are a bunch of lizards, not very pretty, some individuals’ appearances do conform to human aesthetics.

In that moment, Lu Yuan realized his all energies were surging... As a normal male, it had been a very long time since he had seen a pretty girl; he wanted to see... big bears, long legs, pretty faces!

As long as he could surpass the Safe Zone, anything was possible!

He wouldn’t even need to return to human civilization to start a harem.

There must be a few civilizations with attractive appearances, right? The world is so big, perhaps there is an Enchanting Demon civilization?

Lu Yuan fantasized about living a life like Old Wolf, a joyful smile involuntarily spreading across his face.

"Hey, were you attacked by a ’Ghost’? Are you going to die, Lu Yuan!" Old Cat exclaimed dramatically, covering his eyes with his paws.

"What..." Lu Yuan was a bit allergic to the term ’Ghost’; he quickly snapped out of his heavenly fantasy, checking the iron box.

"The ’Ghost’ is fine."

"Didn’t you feel your life force slipping away?" Old Cat hinted.

"I... I do!!" Lu Yuan’s eyes widened.

"That means you are going to die; get ready for resurrection, Lu Yuan."

Lu Yuan could feel his blood rushing towards his brain and groin.

His mind felt hazy, likely a side effect of the spatial teleportation.

The rate of his essence loss was accelerating!

He miserably cried out, "Could it be that I... lose essence because I got hard? Why is this happening! What’s the reason?"

"Could I not become like Old Wolf?"

Old Wolf also started to howl, barking wildly at Lu Yuan, it was unclear what he was trying to express.

Old Cat deliberately played coy, saying in a ghostly tone, "Idiot, didn’t you notice you’re nosebleeding? Idiot, drip—"

Because of the swearing, it was warned by the system and then forcefully restarted.

...

Lu Yuan wiped his nosebleed, pretending to be alright.

He climbed to the top of the Sky Pit; the view here was uniquely beautiful, with peaks overlapping and waters as clear as mirrors, barely making out a stretch of yellow land at the end of the mountain range.

This peak marked the boundary between the barren yellow desert and the Primitive Forest, the green-yellow divide illustrating the confrontation between life and death.

Only, the Safe Zone of the Rize Civilization couldn’t be seen anymore.

"Theoretically, that Safe Zone should be at the foot of the mountain... it’s just that now it, has hidden itself again," Old Cat pointed a paw in a direction, "Only in the moment of dimensional fall can we see it."

Lu Yuan, feeling a sense of loss, activated his Different Space ability.

Unfortunately, his Different Space and the ’Monster’s Different Space were not the same.

The ’Monster’s ability was "Multiple Alternative Spaces," an Upper Ability.

Therefore, no matter how Lu Yuan activated his Different Space, he was still unable to see the Safe Zone.

So he settled for the next best thing: "How’s your radio equipment? Have the Rize people replied to you?"

Old Cat earnestly answered, "Actually, over the past ten days, we’ve received a lot of signals. They’ve sent a lot of information!"

"It might be a part of the mountains that broke free from Different Space, successfully surpassing the settings of the Safe Zone."

"However, decoding these languages still requires some time..."

Lu Yuan struck a muscle-flexing pose: "That’s really great; they must be celebrating... Are they going to erect a statue for me, Old Lu?"

"Too bad this race doesn’t match my taste... after all, they aren’t Indians, not perverted to that extent, huh."

Old Cat was at a loss for words.

Even though it really wanted to make some comments.

But this lifesaving grace was indeed too profound.

Not only had they killed the ’Monster’, but they had also allowed the Seventh Branch of Rize Civilization to regain the Extraordinary Spark...

What is this concept?

It’s almost identical to a recreate grace!

Any civilization with a bit of sense would make a big deal about it and heavily promote the friendship between both parties.

After all, the Rize Civilization and humans had established diplomatic relations, and seizing this opportunity to draw closer and augment the friendship was a great choice.

Old Cat finally squeezed out a phrase, "Aren’t you only thirty percent responsible? I also have thirty percent of the credit!"

"Then let’s erect a statue for our group!" Lu Yuan shamelessly said.

"Should I really risk my life crossing the Safe Zone?"

He was very conflicted.

Old Cat remained silent for a long while and suddenly said, "I’ve noticed that this Sky Pit is a bit strange."

"What’s strange about it?"

"Take another close look at Old Wolf." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Located in the Sky Pit, Old Wolf was like time had frozen, not moving at all.

It took quite a while before Old Wolf finally exhaled a breath.

Lu Yuan jumped down into the Sky Pit again; Old Wolf was normal, wagging its tail and showing goodwill toward him.

Looking upward.

He noticed that outside the Sky Pit, the plants were growing very rapidly.

The birds and insects were flying at a speed like bullets, so fast that he could barely catch them in his sight.

So, he jumped out again, thoughtful, "So this is what it feels like to look at the Pangu Continent from inside a Safe Zone. Everything outside is in fast motion."

Old Cat explained, "Yes, inside the Sky Pit, the passage of time seems consistent with the Safe Zone... probably because the Time Cage hasn’t been completely removed yet."

"This is like a mini Safe Zone that you can enter and exit at will."

"We could be here for a few hours, and outside it might have been dozens of days."

"This means that if you were to stay in the Sky Pit for 10 years, humans might have already left the Safe Zone."

"And what does that have to do with me? What a lousy idea..." Lu Yuan rolled his eyes.

He was acutely aware of just how vast and dangerous the Pangu Continent was.

Even if humans came out, they couldn’t possibly trek billions of miles to find Lu Yuan.

This was unrealistic.

One man and one cat explored the cause behind the "Time Cage" for quite a while but figured out nothing.

It might have been set by "God," or possibly by an ancient civilization that had tampered with it.

It seemed the "Time Cage" was just a space node, impossible to move...

This annoyed Lu Yuan.

"Didn’t you want to use Spatial Teleportation to enter the Safe Zone? Don’t worry about us; we’ll just stay here in this Sky Pit."

"Since the passage of time is the same anyway, even if you spend 10 days in the Safe Zone, it will only be 10 days for us here."

"I’m not certain, I might die..."

Lu Yuan used Spatial Teleportation once again.

It was indeed point-to-point spatial jumping, not "flying" over.

"Wouldn’t it be a waste if I just resurrected and then died again, delaying things for several more years?"

Growing a fruit takes at least three to four years and requires a lot of resources; it would take about three more years for the Tree of Life to produce him.

Resurrection was not meant to be used like this!

Having resurrected once, Lu Yuan understood that the stronger he was, the longer the cycle of resurrection took.

"I think, now is actually a pretty good opportunity to try." Old Cat, unusually, supported Lu Yuan crossing the Safe Zone.

"For one thing, it’s already the 4266th day of the Ninth Epoch, not the 42nd day of the Ninth Epoch."

"More than ten years have passed, and it’s pointless to be anxious. Opportunities aren’t something you just have when you want them."

"Wasting a little time doesn’t matter much..."

"On the other hand, because of the Time Cage, even if you die, the time Old Wolf and I have to wait is acceptable. We just need to wait in the Sky Pit for about half a month for you to be resurrected."

"Without this Time Cage, we would have to wait six or seven years, which would be very troublesome."
