BXBX NOVEL Chapter 549: 295: Past and Future
[You recognize the demon attacking you as the Iron Ape demon that you once killed. In an instant, you understand that you have returned to a time before Dianxing Sect attacked the Sky Wolf Valley.]
“It’s a good thing that I went back to a time before the Dianxing Sect attacked Sky Wolf Valley!”
Su Nan sighed in relief.
He remembered the Iron Ape demon clearly – it was the second demon he had killed. Back then, he had used the Iron Ape Sutra he had obtained from Zhou Lingyin, combined with the essence and blood he had acquired from the Iron Ape demon, to merge his second physique bloodline.
As he continued reading, the following information made him happy.
[You show no mercy and kill the demon with a single palm strike, then attempt to open the prison door with the Kun Tian Key.]
[As the Kun Tian Key touches the prison door, it opens immediately. Leaving the cell, you head straight for Cell No. 24.]
“I can take the Kun Tian Key out! That means the game’s Personal Space can be accessed in the Illusion Realm.”
Su Nan relaxed again, with the Kun Tian Key always stored in his Personal Space. The foreknowledge that he could take out the Kun Tian Key already proved the point.
[Using the Kun Tian Key, you successfully open Cell No. 24. Unexpectedly, Zhou Lingyin suddenly attacks you upon seeing you, but you react quickly to dodge the attack.]
[You realize that Zhou Lingyin does not recognize you at this time, and you have arrived at a point before you met her.]
[Zhou Lingyin attacks you again, and knowing that you are no match for her, you quickly reveal her identity and try to get her to stop.]
[Hearing you reveal her identity, Zhou Lingyin is puzzled but does not stop her attack.]
[You know that Zhou Lingyin doesn’t believe you, and in desperation, you tell her that you came here through the Illusion Realm and reveal your identity as an Outsider, trying to make her believe you.]
[However, you don’t tell her that you can only leave by killing everyone you know.]
[To your surprise, upon hearing that you came from the Illusion Realm, Zhou Lingyin stops attacking and curiously asks you for detailed information about the Illusion Realm and future events.]
“Did she actually…believe me?”
“How is that possible?”
Su Nan was stunned.
Telling people inside the Illusion Realm that everything here is fake and that he is from outside the Illusion Realm was simply absurd.
Not to mention that Zhou Lingyin is a mere illusion in the realm of foreknowledge, even if she were a real person, it would be impossible to believe that their world is an illusion.
But now, it seems that the illusion Zhou Lingyin believes it!
What does this mean?
It means that the Zhou Lingyin in the Illusion Realm might have independent thinking!
An illusion with independent thinking?
This is just absurd!
“How is this possible? It shouldn’t be the case!”
Su Nan was puzzled and looked serious.
It was acceptable that his bad luck worked in the Illusion Realm before. But now, even the people inside the realm had gained the ability to think independently, making him feel as if everything he saw was real and not an illusion.
“No wonder the patriarchs of the Five Great Families said that those who enter the Illusion Realm for the first time may mistake it for the real world.”
“This is just too realistic!”
[Hearing Zhou Lingyin’s inquiry, you realize that something is wrong, but you can’t figure out what’s going on.]
[Ten hours later, you describe in detail everything from meeting Zhou Lingyin to entering the Land of the Lost, and even show her the Kun Tian Key and Sun and Moon Jade Pendant in your possession to prove your words are true.]
[Seeing the two items, Zhou Lingyin also takes out the Kun Tian Key and Sun and Moon Jade Pendant, and after confirming that your items are genuine, she finally believes you.]
[Having successfully gained Zhou Lingyin’s trust, you want to ask her for help to leave, but she refuses.]
[Zhou Lingyin tells you that what you see is not an illusion but real, and that you didn’t enter an Illusion Realm, but returned to a past point in time. If she helps you now, the future might change.]
[You are shocked by Zhou Lingyin’s words, but you don’t believe her, so you search for a solution on your own in frustration.]
“I went back in time?”
“What a joke!”
Su Nan was also amazed, just like in the foreknowledge, he did not believe Zhou Lingyin’s words.
It was because it’s a terrifying piece of news.
What kind of power would it take to send someone back in time?
Not only would it involve space but also Time.
Even in Ancient Times, it’s far too unlikely that anyone could achieve that!
Moreover, if he hadn’t entered the Illusion Realm and was actually in a real timeline, then his previous killings of the five Great Family Patriarchs and three Elders of the Daxuan Royal Family in the Illusion Realm meant they would also die in reality, right?
If that were the case, those who entered the Ancient God Tomb before would have noticed something wrong.
[You attempt to use Across the Heavens Shift again to leave Kun Tian Prison, but to your disappointment, you fail to leave.]
[Twelve hours later, after several attempts, you understand that there is no other way to leave this place other than killing everyone you know.]
