Chapter 2133 The Future Replaces the Present
At the critical moment, He Lingchuan made another crazy and bold inference.
The reason why he said it was crazy was because he had never done this outside of Panlong World;
The reason why it is bold is that he has only one chance to verify it.
There is no time left, he has to make a choice between life and death.
Only one step away from the Aoki Gate, he took a last look at the dark space inside the gate and turned around resolutely!
He gave up the opportunity to enter and turned to face Emperor Jiuyou.
And face your own future.
The other party brought a fierce gust of wind and was only three feet away from him. He was iron-blooded, majestic, and cold.
It turns out that facing the Nine Nether Emperor directly is such a huge pressure. He Lingchuan took a deep breath and threw the ring snake necklace at him.
Come, the test of fate.
The Great Emperor Jiuyou raised the Fusheng Knife and changed from chopping to stabbing. The tip of the knife passed through the hole in the wood carving of the ring snake without damaging it at all.
But he was not so gentle to He Lingchuan. The blade flashed with cold light and pierced directly into his heart!
It was just like He Lingchuan had killed his original body before.
This time, there was no resistance, no tricks, and no accidents. The Fu Sheng Knife hit him firmly in the vitals.
Blood flowed down the micro grooves on the blade.
First it was a few strands, then one strand after another.
Blood also flowed onto the krait wood carving.
As expected, no matter how many times you die, it still hurts to be stabbed in the vitals. He Lingchuan smiled bitterly and looked at the Nine Nether Emperor who was so close:
"Take off the mask and let me see myself clearly."
He stretched out his hand with difficulty, trying to take off the mask of Emperor Jiuyou, but the other party did not dodge.
But before his fingers even touched the mask, it turned to ash.
He looked at his arms and body, which were also dissipating.
The Jiuyou Emperor opposite suddenly raised his hand and took off his mask.
He Lingchuan smiled when he saw that face, and his smile was full of relief:
"As expected, the future is up to you..."
Like his predecessor, he was reduced to ashes.
In this misty valley, there was only one living person left.
There was still a necklace on the tip of Emperor Jiuyou's knife.
Both He Lingchuan disappeared into thin air, but it still exists.
He took down the krait and spread it on his hand. The last drop of blood on the pendant seeped into his palm, as fast as being absorbed by a sponge, and the pair of snake eyes lit up.
Eyes stained with blood.
In this small foggy valley world, it is the only one that has experienced He Lingchuan’s past, present and future.
Holding the pendant, Emperor Jiuyou's eyes gradually changed from cold and stiff to bright and wise.
The Tower of Babel was still standing in front of him. The gate that was originally going to close in two or three breaths had now stopped, and the dark doorway was facing him.
However, he did not go in. Instead, he turned around and walked to the edge of the pond and observed for a long time.
There were some scenes in the water that he stared at intently.
But the picture soon faded, and what was left was just a reflection.
The reflection of Emperor Jiuyou.
Without the rough and repressed nature of the “previous self” and without the otherworldly face of the “present self”, he is the Emperor Jiuyou.
No matter the appearance or attire, it is exactly the same as in the real world.
"This is my world." He declared solemnly, "Not even fate has the right to trap me here!"
His voice echoed in the valley, "—not qualified"!
After he said this, the Tower of Babel behind him disappeared.
Emperor Jiuyou looked at the serpent necklace in his hand again.
The snake has begun to eat its own tail.
In this trial, the most difficult thing is not to escape from the pursuit of "Nine Nether Emperor", but to make the right choice.
How many people can resist the temptation to escape and turn around to face the terrible future?
He Lingchuan dared to do this, but he had to confirm a prerequisite first:
The Yuan power cannot fall on others, so the "Nine Nether Emperor" in this misty valley must be himself.
Therefore, this misty valley is neither in the large square pot nor in the immortal's treasure, but in the depths of his own sea of consciousness, just surrounded by the immortal's treasure.
Or use a word written by Qian Huan Zhenren in the General Outline of Illusion:
"In the midst of sleep."
It’s not “冥”, but “瞑”.
But the immortal's treasure cleverly dislocated and isolated his consciousness, forcing him to face the fear of death and the unknown.
However, the way "fate" works is that it constantly devours the past, like a snake biting its tail, in an infinite cycle.
If he had chosen to rush into the seemingly safer Tower of Babel, it would have been a form of escape and he would not have dared to face his own future.
Without the "present", how can there be a "future"?
Then this trial would fail, and his own "Ring of Destiny" would be broken.
This is because the Tower of Babel was obviously not an original creation in He Lingchuan's sea of consciousness.
I'm afraid that is the real trap. Once his consciousness leaves his sea of consciousness and his body and enters that unknown place, the outcome will be truly unpredictable.
Think about how the two black-armored guards around him died? He probably wasn't much better.
He Lingchuan made a knife flower and casually drew the word "乂" in front of him. It was like tearing through a curtain, and a warm breeze blew in from behind the curtain.
He drank softly:
"Disperse!"
At first, the fog covering the valley was blown away, and then the trees, valleys, and pools of water also turned into smoke and disappeared.
This depressing and monotonous world was shattered before the eyes of Emperor Jiuyou.
Now that he knew where this was, this place could no longer hold him back.
He didn't even have to flee, he just had to make this place disappear on its own!
……
Lufu ancestral temple.
In the eyes of everyone, golden light permeated the body of Emperor Jiuyou, which lasted only three breaths.
Then the golden light disappeared, and the black and red mist that filled the entire Lu Mansion also disappeared, leaving a clear blue sky above their heads.
The Jiuyou Emperor did not move, as if only a suit of armor was standing there.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on his wrist.
The golden ring on the wrist armor has been fully formed. It is a strange snake that keeps swallowing its own tail and rotates in a circle.
Under the sunlight, every tiny scale of it glowed with a strange light, like a living thing.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. After a long while, Wanqi Liang whispered, "Emperor?"
He Lingchuan suddenly opened his eyes.
There was a golden light in his eyes, ten times brighter than the midday sun!
Others couldn't bear to look at it and took a few steps back in horror.
Fortunately, this strange phenomenon only lasted for a short moment. He Lingchuan blinked a few more times and the golden light disappeared.
Business as usual.
A dead silence.
Everyone held their breath, wondering what kind of monster he had turned into.
Emperor Jiuyou first looked at Lu Zhensheng, whose despair, frustration and fear were written all over his face.
I thought I could take down Emperor Jiuyou this time, but I never expected that even my ancestors' treasures were ineffective!
"I underestimated you." Emperor Jiuyou took off the golden snake ring and let it float in the air. "How many people have you harmed with it?"
