Against the Gods Chapter 273 – The Sudden Truth

Chapter 273 The Sudden Truth

Not an... illusory realm? Even though these were Jasmines words, Yun Che was still shaking his head: Impossible! Im very certain that cant possibly be the real world. Its only an illusory realm!

Jasmine faintly said: Although Im not sure why you are so sure that was an illusory realm, I am even more sure that it was the real world. Also, in deciding whether or not a world is real or not, Im much more qualified than you! With your current strength, youre also absolutely unqualified to determine whether or not its an illusory realm.

Yun Che: ...

He was certainly incapable of determining whether or not that was an illusory realm... Even in realms of the Phoenix Trial and the Dragon God Trial, apart from them being incredibly dangerous, he felt that they were no different than the real world. If he hadnt entered them during a trial, but had entered them under different circumstances, he wouldnt have even believed that they were illusory realms.

But Jasmine wasnt the same. The realm she was in was something that Yun Che had absolutely no way of comprehending. Her understanding of the elemental laws and her comprehension and understanding of spatial laws was something that Yun Che had completely no chance of reaching up to. When they entered the Heaven Basin Secret Realm, Jasmine could immediately tell the time that the Secret Realm was in and the fact that this was something that wasnt created by the people of this plane... Finally, with the confirmation from the Evil Gods soul, he found that that it indeed wasnt something created with human strength, but something that the Evil God had created.

The place we were in before that you believed to be the Azure Cloud Continent, had complete and stable elemental laws, natural laws and order laws. These laws are the basic laws that are absolutely impossible to create instantly in an illusory realm! Also, from the completeness of the laws, that was a continent that had existed for several billion years!! Its absolutely impossible for it to be some illusory realm... Even if the True Gods still existed, its still impossible to create an illusory realm that has more stable and complete laws than a continent that had existed for several billion years!

Yun Che: !!!!

Its absolutely impossible even for the Evil God... let alone a soul fragment of the Evil God. That piece of soul you conversed with was already extremely weak. Using its final strength to be able to complete a round trip teleportation is already its absolute absolute limit. Its absolutely impossible to create an illusory realm! Even a most simplest of spirit realms is impossible!

Jasmines words were like one strike of shocking lightning after another that exploded in Yun Ches brain. It turned his entire brain into utter chaos, as if it was a huge wave that crashed into heaven...

That wasnt an... illusory realm?

That was... the real world? A real world that actually exists? It was the Azure Cloud Continent that he was so familiar with?

Then Su Linger... and time...

No! Impossible! Linger had obviously already passed away. She passed away in my arms and I personally buried her. How could that have been the real her... and also the time. If they were actually in the Azure Cloud Continent, it shouldnt be that time at all...

Theres more... Jasmines voice continued during this moment: Not only is that Azure Cloud

Continent an actual existence, its distance from the Profound Sky Continent shouldnt be too far, because its laws of elements, nature, and order have many similarities with the Profound Sky Continent. It and the Profound Sky Continent might actually be on the same planet. Only...

Jasmine stopped for a bit. Her voice had a little doubt to it: Azure Cloud Continents fundamental laws are the same as Profound Sky Continents laws, but the temporal law which should have the most similarities are actually a bit different... Hmph! Although interfering with the time law is fundamentally impossible, for these sort of lower planes, its absolutely impossible for my perception to be wrong! Perhaps, Azure Cloud Continents temporal law has been tampered with, or maybe Profound Sky Continents temporal law has been tampered with, or maybe both have been tampered with!

Jasmines words have been filtered time and time again within Yun Ches head, making his originally impatient and disorderly brain even more chaotic... Now, he suddenly raised his head as if lightning struck his brain...

He suddenly remembered that in the realm of the Phoenix Trial, the Phoenix spirit told him something very strange...

...It seems that the girl whom you call Linger must have really been very important to you. And also because of her, your inner self holds heavy regret. However, you dont have to suppress this regret in the depths of your soul. You have passed through the reincarnation cycle due to the Heavenly Profound Treasure and it has tampered with this worlds karma. Under the butterfly effect, time, dimension, and planes will also change as well. Your regret and debt, you may have not yet lost your chance to make up for them.

...

...

Heavenly Profound Treasure...

Passing through the reincarnation cycle...

Butterfly Effect...

Tampering with karma...

Interfering with time...

These words rampaged within Yun Ches brain until they finally slowed down. With his unimaginable rebirth, with Jasmines words, with Su Linger in the Azure Cloud Continent within the illusory realm... Everything began to slowly make sense...

Passing through the reincarnation cycle... after he died in the Azure Cloud Continent, he woke up in a dead body in the Profound Sky Continent...

Isnt this precisely going through the reincarnation cycle... Since after a persons death, all of their memories and life should have been washed away, since they reincarnate into a completely brand new next life. But for himself, he retained all of his memories from his previous reincarnation...

If the Azure Cloud Continent that he was in wasnt an illusory realm, then the Su Linger he met wasnt an illusion... Then, wasnt it precisely... karma and time that had changed...

Him passing through the reincarnation cycle was a fact, because it was his most genuine and strange experience, then... then... Azure Cloud Continents time interference, Lingers existence... were real too!?

However, even Jasmine had said interfering with time was fundamentally impossible... Also, he didnt have the so called Heavenly Profound Treasure that was able to pass through the reincarnation cycle on his body. The only Heavenly Profound Treasure that he had was the Sky Poison Pearl, and its powers were concentrated in poison, medicine, refinement, containment and finding things; they had nothing to do with reincarnation at all. Apart from the Sky Poison Pearl, he had no other Heavenly Profound Treasures at all. If he really had one he didnt know about, how could Jasmine not sense it?

Jasmine... Yun Che breathed a deep breath and quietly asked: Within the Heavenly Profound Treasures, is there anything that allows... passage through the reincarnation cycle, and tampering with karma?

...I just said, temporal laws are fundamentally impossible to be tampered with, but I never said that its absolutely impossible to tamper with them, precisely because among the seven Heavenly Profound Treasure, there exists a heaven opposing item that can cause time to flow in reverse. Its precisely the seventh treasure of the Seven Heavenly Profound Treasures, the Mirror of Samsara. The power of the Mirror of Samsara is precisely tampering with cause and effect and transmigration! After the complete destruction of the True Gods, there hasnt been another power that was sufficient enough to tamper with time and dimensions. Apart from the Mirror of Samsara that is able to interfere with time, theres also the sixth treasure of the Heavenly Profound Treasures that could interfere with dimension, the World Needle.

The abnormalities of the temporal laws within the Azure Cloud Continent made me precisely thinking about the possibility that someone used the Mirror of Samsara... this is an extremely interesting discovery since at least this shown that the Mirror of Samsara once manifested on the Azure Cloud Continent! If those people knew about this fact, then perhaps a terrifying wave of carnage would sweep through this plane!

Mirror of Samsara... Mirror?

Yun Ches heart suddenly throbbed, and he subconsciously held the pendant that he always wore.

Could it be...

Jasmine, Yun Che calmly said: If the Mirror of Samsara actually manifested, then you can probably sense its existence with your power right?

No, Jasmine denied: Amongst the seven Heavenly Profound Treasures, the Mirror of Samsaras abilities are the most heaven opposing, but the reason its ranked last is because every time it activates, it must hibernate for twenty years. Within these twenty years, it does not have a shred of power. Itll become the same as most ordinary mirrors.

...

Yun Ches heart rate accelerated. He held his pendant tightly... In his memories of the Blue Wind Empire, he wore a pendant since young and never took it over. Similarly, in the Azure Cloud Continent, he had always worn it. In two different continents, two different lives, he had a pendant that he always wore with him.

After opening this pendant, there was a little mirror... A little mirror that could not possibly be more ordinary.

But according to Xiao Lie, the reason his birth parents were chased and killed was because of an item known as a... Heavenly Profound Treasure!

Could it be that it actually is... one of the seven Heavenly Profound Treasures, the Mirror of Samsara?

If it really was the Mirror of Samsara, it would explain why he went from the Profound Sky Continent to the Azure Cloud Continent and the period from the Azure Cloud Continent back to the Profound Sky Continent...his memories, his lifes transfer, without any breaks! All the questions could have a correspond explanation...

If it really was the interference from the Mirror of Samsara, then... then... the Azure Cloud Continent that he just went to... the Su Linger he had personally embraced...

Were also real!!!

His life in the Azure Cloud Continent, disruption in reincarnation, disruption in space and time... everything was real!!

Su Linger... is still in this world! Still on the Azure Cloud Continent that he was familiar with and grew up in!

Then, his master... perhaps with the reverse flow of time, might still be alive! After all, when Su Linger was ten, he was only twelve. At the time, he was still traveling the world with his master!

That was Linger... that was Linger... that was actually Linger... She didnt die... shes really Linger...

The sudden facts exploded Yun Ches brain. All the blood in his body practically began to boil. He looked at both his hands and violently trembled all over... He always thought the Linger that he had obviously seen and closely embraced was nothing but an illusion created by the Evil God. Jasmines words, combined with his experience with the voice of the Phoenix spirit made him hear the morning bell. His Linger had just been in front of his eyes, by his side. He treated her like an illusion and then left just like that...

Yun Che growled from the bottom of his throat, then fiercely reached out and pounded his head. He was occasionally mad with joy and then occasionally had a nervous breakdown... the Linger he was madly in love with was still alive. In his anger and regret, he treated her like an illusion, and didnt bring her back at all...

All of Yun Ches weird reactions had finally started to make Jasmine understand them. Looking at the pendant that he had been grabbing onto in his hand, she suddenly said: So thats how it was, no wonder you went to that continent and lost control when you saw that little girl... Its also no wonder why Sky Poison Pearl fused together with your body...

Dont tell me, the one who activated the Mirror of Samsaras power... was you!?
