"I wouldn't say I'm interested; I just sensed a very peculiar aura emanating from that broken sword."
After adjusting his expression, Li Jie began to explain softly.
"That's natural, after all, it's the sword of a sword immortal."
"Sword Immortal?"
Hearing Li Jie's questioning voice, the prince, who was sitting behind his desk, slowly stood up and walked to the side of the broken sword.
He stretched out two fingers, his face filled with nostalgia, and stroked the broken sword blade before speaking softly.
"Yes, he is a sword immortal... However, he did not comprehend the kind of power of laws you mentioned. He only stands above all living beings with his unparalleled sword skills."
Therefore, people call him the Sword Immortal.
Peerless sword techniques...
It seems that the sword immortal he mentioned is also a remarkable person.
"I have another question."
After regaining his composure and hesitating for a moment, Li Jie finally spoke up and asked.
"In the previous eighty-eight dream cycles, was it always you I encountered?"
"Yes."
"Then why do you say I am you?"
"Because I am your alter ego in another parallel world."
What the hell?
The prince's words did indeed touch upon a blind spot in Li Jie's knowledge.
Seeing the puzzled look on his face, the prince, who was reminiscing about the past, sighed softly and began to explain.
“Originally, we had no chance of meeting, but by sheer coincidence, the ambition of the God of Kroos grew stronger and broke the balance between parallel universes, creating a spacetime tunnel that is not very stable. The altar you entered earlier is one of the channels that connects to this world.”
"How do you know this?"
"Because... the civilization of this world has been completely wiped out in the battle against the gods of the Kreece. What you see now is just a projection left by me through the power of faith."
"The country was destroyed?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jie frowned and muttered to himself.
"Destroying a country is the least of my worries. The world I live in has been completely devoured by the God of Kelvin and has become his nourishment."
"And the meaning of my existence here is to wait for the arrival of the original body so that the flame of our world can be passed on."
"Wait a minute, I'm a little flustered, let me calm down first..."
Yes, what the prince said did seem somewhat incoherent to Li Jie.
Although he knew the power of those powerful gods, even the fully formed Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation could not annihilate them.
But why would his own clone preserve the spark of the parallel world and pass it on to him?
Why was he so sure he would come here?
He couldn't find the answers to these questions.
"It's normal not to expect the answer. Before our destruction, I also felt that I was the savior of the world."
As if seeing through Li Jie's doubts, the prince casually said in a low voice.
"So, who are you?"
"Confucian Immortal, Ancient Dust."
"Gu Chen? Then this place... is Western Chu?"
“That’s right…”
........
In the Great Summer Courtyard, at the Eastern Heavenly Gate.
After listening to Lulu's explanation, Xian'er couldn't help but frown.
This is far too bizarre. Why did that altar suddenly go out of control?
And they even took Li Jie away with them.
Unable to figure out the reason, Xian'er decided to go to the South China Sea to investigate herself. Just as she was about to set off...
The Primordial Celestial Venerable descended, riding on auspicious clouds.
"Old man, what are you doing here?"
Upon seeing the person who arrived, Xian'er rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.
They disappear every day when they need you, and only show up to offer empty advice after something goes wrong.
"What, don't you want to see this old man?"
The Celestial Venerable stroked his beard and said with a light laugh.
"I'm tired of seeing your old face. Do you have something to say? If not, don't waste my time. I'm in a hurry to save someone."
"If you put it that way, then I do have something to say."
Hearing Xian'er's barbed words, the Heavenly Venerable was not annoyed. He nodded to Xiao Jue and the other two girls with a smile in his eyes.
"If you're planning to go to the South China Sea, then I can tell you you don't need to go."
"Why?" Xian'er asked, puzzled.
"Before I came back, I did a divination for Li Xiaoyou. He should no longer be in our world, but his life traces are still relatively stable."
"Therefore, I guess this might be a stroke of luck for him. Even if you go to the South China Sea, you won't be able to bring him out of that altar."
"If you can't bring it out, I'll cut it down!" Hearing this, Xian'er became even more agitated. What did she mean by "not in this world"? Could it be that it was taken into the ghost realm by an outer god?
Upon realizing this, Xian'er was filled with rage and picked up the Zhuxian Sword to fly south.
"Wait a minute, if you really cut down that altar, then young friend Li might never come back."
The words had barely left her lips when Xian'er froze, only...
The chilling aura emanating from her even instilled fear in Xiao Jue and the other two, who were also sword spirits of the immortal sword.
"Fairy Sister, don't worry... Your natal flying sword imprint is still there, isn't it? Since it's still there, then everything should be fine."
Xiao Jue managed to fly to Xian'er's side, took her hand, and gently persuaded her.
Hearing this, Xian'er's breathing finally stabilized a bit, and seeing this, Lulu, who had caused such trouble, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness... I thought the fairy was going to kill me just now...
"Then let's wait a little longer..."
After hesitating for a long time, Xian'er dejectedly threw the Zhuxian Sword back to the Heavenly Gate and sat down by the immortal tree.
Xiao Jue, who had originally wanted to say something, shook her head helplessly upon seeing this and beckoned the sisters back to their seats.
The Celestial Venerable glanced meaningfully at the white-robed fairy who was resting with her eyes closed, then turned and flew away.
.........
On the other hand, Li Jie, having learned the truth, felt a mix of emotions that were hard to define.
Unexpectedly, his avatar in the parallel world was none other than the renowned Confucian immortal Gu Chen.
So what kind of spark did he want to pass on to himself?
Wearing a gilded robe, Gu Chen did not urge Li Jie, but stood quietly to the side waiting for Li Jie to receive the message he was conveying.
What kind of spark are you talking about?
"Nature is the very essence of this world that remains within my own realm..."
"And there is also the supreme skill born from the peerless powerhouses of my Western Chu, the Confucian Sword Immortals."
"【The Song of the Western Chu Sword】".
