Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!
Chapter 367 The cruel truth
Everyone fell into deep silence.
Their reactions were different. Xuannu was shocked, Hongyi was thinking, and Dongwanggong was in disbelief.
"Didn't you tell me that father and mother were the gods of creation?"
He couldn't accept this fact:
"It turns out that he is only here to provide assistance?!"
It has to be said that Dong Wanggong's brain circuit is also quite good, but Jiang Lu is naturally more powerful.
"It's okay, kids. They may just be going there to work and will be back for the New Year," he comforted them.
Dong Wanggong was comforted: "Now I feel that the aid is not unacceptable."
"They are indeed the gods of creation, and this will not change." Queen Mother Xi explained with some fatigue: "It's just that they were not born in this world."
"So if we let Yuanshi Tianzun open the door, the being over there might come through the door, right?"
Hong Yi asked, "What are they?"
"I don't know either. I only know that the existing forces are absolutely unable to resist."
Queen Mother Xi said with some concern:
"Brother, he is courting trouble. I can't let him do this."
"Not necessarily. I haven't seen the kind of thing you're talking about." Jiang Lu from Earth said, "Although that place is indeed very special, and the characteristics of various gods can be found there, there is no trace of its real existence. Most people even think that those are fictional."
"You may not have noticed them because they just didn't appear in front of you."
Queen Mother Xi shook her head, as if she had seen through everything:
“Why don’t you think about it carefully? If there is really nothing magical, then why can you travel freely from that world to other places?
"I saw your body being destroyed by the lightning. It's fine that the other thing wasn't destroyed, after all, it's your companion creature. But where did that mouth, part of the brain, and the pair of kidneys come from? I don't need to remind you, right?"
"Ah, that mouth was opened from the gambling stone in my casino." Dong Wanggong raised his hand and spoke.
"That's not the point." Queen Mother of the West glared at him and said, "In short, even if the Lord God wants to break the world barrier, it won't be that easy."
Jiang Lu was silent.
Could it be that the strange advent of the real world he lives in is related to this?
But why did the world, which has been stable for so many years, go wrong at this point in time?
Scythe at the side thought carefully and suddenly spoke again: "I think I understand. I think I can share some clues about the world you are talking about. We come from the same place as Jiang Lu."
"Are you crazy?" The performer pulled him and whispered, "If the people here find a way to go to our world, wouldn't that be a dimensionality reduction attack? What are our superpowers of over 50 levels here? Golden Core or Nascent Soul? There's no need for us to fight so hard for a mission, and there's no need to be traitors to the earth."
His idea was very simple. Although everyone’s position was the same now, they belonged to two different civilizations after all.
If there is any clue provided by the sickle whose importance they are unaware of, but Queen Mother of the West knows it, it will make their world lose its mystery in the eyes of Queen Mother of the West, and give rise to different thoughts, causing her to change her mind and go through the door to the other side. At that time, no matter what she thinks, there will definitely be a collision between civilizations.
But it goes without saying that the supernatural beings who have become supernatural beings with the help of the Exorcist System are definitely far inferior to those of immortal cultivators in all aspects. These are the profound understandings they have gained since they came into contact with immortal cultivation during this period of time.
So when one of the two civilizations has obvious shortcomings and is inferior to the other, it will be difficult for the collision to end in a win-win and peaceful manner.
Scythe also thought of this, so he thought about it for a long time, but he still felt that there was a reason why he had to do this:
"I understand all of this, but what I understand even more is that even if there are no other threats, the Spirit Realm alone is still an unknown to us. If we remain in this passive position, we may be destroyed without any invasion.
Therefore, I think now is a great opportunity for us to understand the truth about the revival of the supernatural. I have a hunch that perhaps this will be a turning point in our own future.”
The performer rubbed his eyes.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the sickle was glowing.
In addition, he felt a little ashamed. Compared with the sickle, he felt that he was too short-sighted.
Looking at the others again, Scythe said seriously: "If possible, please keep my memory of this conversation when you erase our memories. I shared the secrets of our world with you, so I also need to bring back some information we need. This is my only request."
Upon hearing this, Queen Mother of the West and the others were a little surprised.
Jiang Lu was also a little stunned for a moment.
For a long time, he hadn't had a clear understanding of Scythe's responsibility to the Exorcist Guild.
He knew that he was proud of his identity as an exorcist who could protect ordinary people, and he also knew that his ideal was to realize his own value and contribute to the guild and all mankind.
But this is just a label for Jiang Lu.
Moreover, as the branch president, he was too far away from Jiang Lu, and Jiang Lu had no idea what he had actually done or what choice he would make when faced with two completely different paths.
So now was the first time he truly understood the so-called ideals of the sickle.
Now he is not negotiating with Black Jade, nor is he confronting Razor. He is facing a figure from the Pyramid of another world, but he is still considering the concerns behind him with dignity.
How could this be a small branch president? This was clearly an upright wall-facer!
It was rare that Jiang Lu suddenly felt touched.
He walked to the sickle, stood side by side with him, and asked sincerely: "Give me a favor and agree to his request."
After these words were spoken, the few people who were originally moved by the responsibility shown by the sickle suddenly began to look at Jiang Lu with strange eyes.
Including the sickle beside him.
His expression was particularly complicated.
"Although." Dong Wanggong, the great man, complained on Wuqing's behalf: "Didn't you want to erase their memories in the beginning?"
Jiang Lu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and scratched his head: "Is that so? Hahaha, then I agree."
The memories that he didn't want Scythe and the Performer to take back were mainly about his relationship with the underworld. Although in today's environment where mythological figures are everywhere, the two of them may not think there is anything wrong with the Lord of the Underworld, but when they return, they may not be able to guarantee that they will not think about it with horror, which will cause trouble for themselves.
However, he didn't care about the matter of supernatural revival. He just took it back. It had nothing to do with him anyway.
Since there's a chance I can help the Exorcist Guild, why not do it?
In order to ease the awkwardness, Jiang Lu deliberately changed the subject: "But let's be honest, there is no big difference between you and me, right? Even if the clues are not provided by you, you don't need to care too much. What should be left will be left for you."
"That's not what I meant." Scythe shook his head: "Many details of what you said may not be clear."
He said it very tactfully, but everyone understood what he meant.
Jiang Lu is not a core figure, and there are still many things he doesn’t know.
But Jiang Lu didn't understand.
"Eh? No way." He patted his chest carelessly and said, "I have read all the notices and memorized them all. Don't worry."
"That's not what I meant." Scythe explained with great embarrassment: "What I meant is that the system is not as simple as you think."
"Uh" Jiang Lu, who finally reacted, suddenly felt a little disappointed.
Dong Wanggong seized the opportunity and patted his shoulder comfortingly: "No wonder you know so much about working, it turns out you are working yourself?" Looking at Jiang Lu's expression, Sickle felt a little guilty and thought that what he said was too hurtful.
But I can't take care of him now, it is more important to know the truth.
"Jiang Lu has just talked about the general cultural background, so I won't go into details. I'll just get to the point."
Scythe sorted out his thoughts and described the situation of the supernatural revival over there in a way that everyone could understand:
“Twenty-two years ago, our world, which originally had no spiritual power or any supernatural powers, suddenly welcomed the advent of something strange. Countless ghosts and monsters invaded our world, and many terrifying visions that only existed in myths and legends suddenly became real.
In addition to this, many spiritual realms similar to what you call small worlds have descended, each with different laws. We need to enter them and complete specific tasks in order to stop them from descending and bringing greater threats to this already devastated world.
This is how we came to you.
People who are given this ability to enter the spirit realm, such as the three of us, are called exorcists in our world.
This ability, including some of the supernatural powers we gain after successfully preventing the advent of the spirit realm, requires a medium known as the Exorcist System.
Many exorcists don’t carefully explore its origins, and even Jiang Lu certainly doesn’t understand it, and this is the point I want to make.”
Having said this, he paused, and then said word by word:
"He did not appear out of thin air, but was given to us by a being who calls himself a guardian god to protect our world. This is a secret that only the top leaders know."
"Guardian Angel" Jiang Lu was shocked: "I have never heard of this before."
Having said this, the performers had no choice but to get on board.
He added on behalf of Scythe: “In fact, it is impossible to find out even if we investigate, because this matter is top secret and only the top leaders know about it.
That mysterious existence can only be seen by exorcists who have reached level 60. He guided the founder of the guild to establish the Exorcist Guild and taught us how to build a safe zone that can block the weirdness, but he never mentioned the truth about the revival of the supernatural.
So we still don’t know why the spirit realm came. If we follow the standard you just mentioned, Queen Mother of the West, then the guardian deity who can give ordinary people the ability to enter and exit other worlds at will may be the kind of existence you are talking about.”
Upon hearing this, Queen Mother of the West showed an expression of "as expected".
Jiang Lu also suddenly realized that it wasn't that there were no gods in the forbidden land of gods. It was because there were creatures higher than the main god. So just like it was difficult to see other predators in a jungle where there were ferocious beasts, were all other gods driven away?
"That should be it."
Queen Mother of the West nodded:
“Logically, when such beings are in an imperfect world, such as the Three Pure Realms, they usually lower their own dimensions, whether actively or passively, to adapt to the current world, just like my father did.
But if that guardian angel is really as you said, and can give ordinary people the ability to travel to other worlds at will, then he is definitely not just at the same level as me and my brother.
The fact that he can exert power beyond ours without lowering the dimension proves that your world is by no means ordinary. At least the upper limit is much more advanced than the big world in the general sense, such as the Three Pure Ones Realm.
You don't have spiritual power or supernatural powers. I guess it's probably because he restricts you. Maybe there's some reason or law that prevents this kind of supernatural power from appearing."
"I know." Jiang Lu narrowed his eyes: "I heard that after the founding of the country, no one can become a spirit."
Everyone: "."
“It’s not really such a rule,” the performer held his forehead with his hand.
"Okay, but the answer is obvious now." Jiang Lu shrugged, "I guess the psychic resurrection was caused by the guardian god. Otherwise, if he is really the guardian god, he has this ability, there is no reason why he can't solve it."
"Don't be too subjective." Scythe shook his head: "Maybe he has some difficulties, or some reason that he can't tell us. It's hard to say. After all, everything was fine for thousands of years before this."
"Thousands of years?"
At this time, Hong Yi suddenly asked:
“I was just wondering, the spiritual revival you mentioned has only been going on for 22 years, and I didn’t expect that your recorded history is only a few thousand years old?
Jiang Lu, it has been more than thousands of years since you died in the underworld, right?
What did you do during the missing time? "
"Well, this involves another setting." Jiang Lu explained: "Our time flow rate is different from yours. The ratio is one to one thousand. That is to say, if converted to your time here, the resurrection of the spirits was about 22,000 years ago, and my resurrection time was more than a thousand years earlier."
He had just finished saying this when he suddenly froze.
"Hong Yi, when you say thousands of years, do you have a specific number?"
The others also realized it later and their expressions suddenly became very strange.
"I don't know the details. I never paid any attention to you before you came here." Hong Yi looked at the Queen Mother of the West.
"I remember," said Queen Mother Xi, who had been secretly paying attention to Jiang Lu's situation, with a sudden dryness in her throat. "The exact time from your death to now should be 9,881 years."
Hong Yi's face was solemn: "After you were resurrected in that world, you have been growing according to time, right?"
"Isn't this nonsense? Can you grow while jumping?" Jiang Lu made a joke, but even he couldn't laugh.
It is absolutely impossible to be dead for ten thousand years in this world and exist for twenty-three thousand years in another world.
"Is it possible that the two worlds are not connected and are not running at the same time, or that the guardian god caused the distortion of time?" Xuannv analyzed.
Queen Mother Xi shook her head: "If they were two independent worlds that did not interact, this would indeed be possible, but they have come here, proving that the two worlds are connected, so this is absolutely impossible."
"Then why?" Dong Wanggong was very confused.
"Or maybe something went wrong when you were traveling through the world, resulting in the wrong time point for traveling?" Hong Yi put forward a new guess.
But there is no proof and no clues.
Only Jiang Lu and two other exorcists who were traveling with him had some vague guesses.
They knew clearly that the spiritual realm of Sanqing Realm was not a spiritual realm that could be entered normally.
It is a random spirit realm.
What is a random spirit realm?
There is no Exorcist strategy or the strategy has failed, and finally it descended into the real world and became a spiritual realm where the source of pollution floats around.
In short, it is a waste file.
Thinking of this, the three of them already had the answer in their hearts.
They looked at each other, as if considering who would tell the others the cruel truth.
In the end, Jiang Lu sighed.
"Well, I have a more reasonable guess."
He forced out a rather unpleasant smile:
"It may be hard to accept, but there is a more reasonable possibility."
"what?"
"The Three Pure Realms were destroyed 9,881 years after my death, so in the next 10,000 years, no matter when we arrive, we will appear at this time point." (End of this chapter)
