Chapter Thirteen: Arrangements Clearly(1/3)
“Where are we going now?”
"A relatively safe place. Let me introduce myself. My name is Qin Que. I should be the second person to come here. You are the third one."
"My name is Tang Maruzi."
Tang Junzi just thought that Qin Que had nothing to do with the owner of the body he now occupied and Qin Jian.
"You have also traveled through time? It turns out that this world has really traveled through time? Who is the first person?"
Once he let go of his guard or finds that he has no trump card, Tang Maruzi will no longer be as alert as before.
Those questions that I dare not ask were asked were asked.
Qin Que suddenly felt quite absurd.
It was obviously two months ago that I didn’t even know what it was like to travel through time.
Now there is a feeling that people around you are traveling through the party.
Speaking of which, these humans from the outside world can easily accept this bizarre phenomenon of body-taking.
Qin Que shook his head, his expression was a little painful:
"It was my first time. I lived a life of my wife and children, so I drank some wine and came here when I woke up. My wife was very beautiful, and I don't know if my neighbors were at peace."
Qin Que picked up a little bit of words to deal with.
Seeing that Qin Que's tone and expression were very consistent, Tang Maruko did not doubt that he was there.
She was already convinced that this person was indeed a time traveler, and the soul in the young man's body should be an uncle in his thirties or forties.
Qin Que continued:
"I only believe that seeing is true in anything, so there is no need for the questions you ask."
Tang Maruko nodded. It was true that seeing is true. He has already traveled through time, so why bother asking if there is traveling through time?
Just why?
Is it a coincidence of disordered time and space, or is it a mission that you have been given?
“So who was the first person to come here?”
"His name is Bai Ping. He is already dead."
"Dead?"
"It was killed by that Taoist boy. That Taoist boy is the first level we are facing when we come here. He will not really die.
Next is my guess. Whenever a time traveler arrives, this Taoist child will appear, looking for opportunities to deceive the traveler, or kill the traveler.
But strictly speaking, Taoist boys are not enemies, but more like detection mechanisms.
Because he is immortal, when the next time traveler arrives, the Taoist boy will be resurrected again."
Qin Que's words are two truths and one lie in three sentences.
Tang Maruko is indeed smart, but this kind of lie is too difficult to guard against.
She was still vigilant in her heart, but she had subconsciously classified Qin Que as "same disease and pity".
"So whenever a time traveler appears, it will appear here?"
"That's right, to be precise, it appeared in that ruined temple."
After thinking about it for a while, Qin Que said:
"We can regard that dilapidated temple as a vortex of time and space, a starting point of cause and effect."
“What a strange place.”
Tang Maruko thought about Qin Que's words and found that it made some sense.
She kept following Qin Que to the east, and soon walked out of Li Zong Mountain.
To the east of Li Zong Mountain is the entrance to the wilderness, and to the west is the prosperous Da Shang.
The same is true for Li Zongshan in the dream arranged by Qin Que.
But at the end of the west, there is no longer the prosperous Great Shang Kingdom, but... an abyss that cannot be crossed.
As for the end of the east, the entrance to the wasteland source—
Qin Que and Tang Maruzi both raised their heads at this moment.
A crack spread from the sky and fell and slashed.
It's like someone cut a terrifying crack in the space with an axe.
In the cracks, you can see the scene of the wasteland.
There are no source beasts on the edge of the wild source, and you can only see crystal-like bare mountains.
The colors of these mountains are not consistent, mostly red and purple, and occasionally blue and black.
At the foot of these crystalline mountains, you can occasionally see some strange-shaped plants.
These plants are very different from the original plants in the spiritual world.
It is like fluorescent snakes entangled together, occasionally squirming, like living things.
Most of the lights are golden or purple red, with strange tones, making the wild source and spiritual world-
It looks like two completely different worlds.
The real wasteland is indeed like this.
There are mostly some white bones next to those vegetation. As Qin Que continues to deepen, the white bones gradually decrease.
And deep in the real wasteland source, there are dangerous source beasts everywhere.
"What did you bring me here for?"
"This crack was not at this location three months ago. It was originally about twenty miles away from the ruined temple."
Qin Que looked at Tang Maruzi with a puzzled look on his face and continued:
"The world outside the crack is called the source. But I prefer to call it the source realm."
"Source Realm?"
"Do you know the Nine Realms?" Qin Que asked.
Tang Maruko shook her head in a daze.
Qin Que looked at Tang Maruzi for a long time.
Apart from reaching the conclusion that I was also handsome before, I couldn't see any reputation.
Tang Maruko doesn't seem to be lying.
Time travelers also know very little information.
However, Qin Que didn't care much and said:
"The world we are in is called the spiritual world, which is the starting point of cause and effect.
After three things have passed, it can be seen that people keep traveling here. It is a rule. According to this rule, there may be time travelers in the near future."
Tang Maruzi didn't understand at all, and Qin Que said slowly:
"The source realm is slowly expanding, while the spiritual realm is slowly shrinking. Do you understand?
Where we can survive is the spiritual world.
The source world is not conducive to our survival, and it can even be said to be extremely dangerous, while the spiritual world is being swallowed up little by little."
"So far, there are only Wilderness Sources, and there may be insect realms, demon realms, and god realms in the future... They will slowly squeeze out the space of the spiritual realm, or cover the space of the spiritual realm."
These words were understood by Qin Que these days after he left the Dragon Locking Formation.
It's the truth.
Tang Maruko now understood, her brain was spinning very quickly.
Soon, following Qin Que's words, he sorted out this clue:
Nine worlds, due to some kind of confusion, are about to collide.
But it is not a physical collision in the ordinary sense, but a more peculiar rule of spatial encounter.
The Source Realm is the vanguard, and it first hit the Spirit Realm. Therefore, the territory of the Spirit Realm is getting smaller and smaller, while the Source Realm is getting bigger and bigger.
Qin Que did not directly tell Tang Maruzi the answer.
Instead, he guided Tang Maruko to come up with the answer himself.
In this way, Tang Maruzi will not be suspicious. People are always willing to believe what they have calculated.
Tang Maruko said in surprise:
"Can we come here to guard the spiritual world?"
The answer is correct.
