Chapter 85 Old Dreams

It seemed like there was endless light coming towards my face.

But the brilliance contained in that fierce light was so dazzling and dazzling that Ji Jue could not see anything clearly. What he could feel at the moment of rotation was the unique aura originating from the Gate of Eternity.

So pure, without any flaws.

It's like jumping into the torrent of time, letting it take you to the unknown and distant past.

Until the infinite light dissipates from the eyes.

The breeze blows from afar.

The sound of the bell echoed in the square, and the birds started to rise and fall. They lowered their eyes curiously from the rising and falling branches, looking at the visitors who did not belong here.

Ji Jue looked around blankly, only to find that he seemed to be back on the ground again.

But it was clearly not like this on the ground. The ruins were gone, the collapsed high-rise buildings were gone, and only slightly mottled buildings stood on the streets.

Pedestrians, talking and laughing, passed through his body, leaving only faint ripples.

In the distance, the church bells echoed, like a celebration.

"What's this?"

Ji Jue stretched out his hands in a daze, subconsciously wanting to touch the things around him, but his palms passed through them without any obstruction, leaving only ripples like water waves.

"Have we traveled through time?" He couldn't restrain his doubts, and at the same time, he was the first to deny such an idea.

This is not the real world, but more like a reflection in time, so incomplete... If you look carefully, some flower pots on the roadside are constantly flashing, the flowers are changing, and the colors are difficult to determine.

The hanging branches of the willow tree are also constantly twitching, unable to fix their shape.

Most of the faces of pedestrians are blurred, hard to see clearly, and the sounds are so far away. There are more places where the buildings and scenery don't even have color, and even the positions are constantly changing.

At the end of the sky, the majestic tower soaring into the clouds is so brilliant and shining - but the cracks are constantly emerging and opening from above, and at the same time, they are quickly restored.

It's like a game full of bugs.

"What on earth is this?"

"Fragments of time, reflections of the past, nothing more."

The prophet stared at everything in front of him: "This is what Mercury has collected... The results of the workshop over the years -

——What her hometown looked like before it was destroyed."

【Holy shit!!】

In Ji Jue's arms, the ghost work ball was shaken, and it seemed that it was finally online: [I understand, I finally understand why this piece of shit Mercury is so thankless that he spreads his workshop to the entire Split World! 】

This is the most difficult question for Tiangong to understand.

Control the world, control everything.

It certainly sounds exaggerated and terrifying.

But in fact, there is no value for money at all.

To achieve the same effect, there are countless secret rituals in the Tianyuan series, and even several split worlds can be pieced together.

It's going to be windy, it's going to rain.

The workshop can be controlled centrally, and there is no need to go to all the trouble of transforming the entire world into a part of the workshop. The huge amount of work required is simply astronomical.

No matter how crazy Mercury is, he can't even solve a math problem clearly.

Moreover, the bigger the workshop, the better. Ensuring the alchemy effect to the greatest extent is the first thing that the workshop must ensure, not the scope of influence.

With Mercury's ability, if the radiation range of the workshop could be reduced by half, no, even by one-third, it would not be as out of control as it is now.

[It’s not that Mercury wants to cover the split world with the workshop, it should be the other way around. She needs this split boundary to become her own workshop. 】

Ghost Gongqiu suddenly said: [The entire world has been transformed by her into a work with a workshop as the core, a collector specially built for the Supreme Good and the Gate of Eternity!

It took so much blessings and materials, and tens of hundreds of years, just to complete the collection of time!】

Just like in remote areas of Yacheng or small gathering points outside the city, where the signal is poor, someone will prop up a huge pot lid to receive the signal.

The entire world has been transformed by mercury into an unprecedentedly huge receiver!

With such an exaggerated scale, even a sage would go bankrupt and even borrow endless amounts of money...

For a long time, it has been independent from the present world, floating among the stars, chasing the sun endlessly, trying to capture the scattered past in the darkness.

Day after day, year after year.

For four hundred years, it has continuously collected relevant time, pieced together and repeated it tirelessly, trying to trace the past.

Everything on the ground is just a symptom of this achievement.

The records and events hidden in this deep well are the treasures she really wants to get!

"What does she want to do?"

Ji Jue wandered among the past records and couldn't help but ask questions.

"Didn't you already see it?"

The prophet stared at the old days and sighed softly: "It's just that I want to return to the old days, that's all."

I want to take back everything I once had.

I want to take back my homeland, my relatives and their future, from death and the destined ending... from the disaster that I have caused!

The endless reincarnation of the town day after day, the Tianyuan Tower constantly collapsing in the sky.

And everything that can't be repaired...

Finally, in front of Ji Jue's eyes, what appeared among the countless things was a fleeting phantom.

The lonely figure wandering among the ruins.

I tried my best to dig and move away the rubble with my own hands, but all I saw were piles of bones.

She bent down, hugging half of the blood-stained wedding dress, and cried silently.

No screams can be heard.

This is the price that mercury pays.

For a moment, it was as if lightning flashed across my mind, and everything I had seen before entering the split world, those ancient histories and past, seemed to be finally connected together.

"The disasters in the town are caused by mercury, right?!" Ji Jue suddenly turned around and asked: "Is it because of the collapse of the Tianyuan Tower?"

boom!

The scene of the earth shattering that day appeared again in the reflection of time.

In the wail of the tower breaking, natural disasters emerged from the sky again, and the fire spread and swallowed everything.

Wails and cries echoed in the wind.

Devour everything.

All the blessings attributed to Tianyuan dissipated, leaving only endless evil changes. The prosperity and glory thus established disappeared with the wind, and all that was left was the fractured appearance that seemed to be eternally imprinted in time.

Tianyuan lost his position!

"Kill the Lord of Eternity, cut off the Tower of Tianyuan, break the world that has been stagnant for thousands of years, and cut off all the bad karma accumulated by the Eternal Empire - the long-cherished wish that has been passed down for 1,200 years is completed in the hands of the Mohist, Mercury

That’s the crucial key.”

The prophet said: "The edge of change that cut off Tianyuan was forged by her...but what's the price? What's the price?"

She said, "The price is to lose everything."

Just like everything that appears in front of you.

At the moment when the Tianyuan Tower is shattered, all participants will experience the backlash when the order collapses - no matter what their original intentions are, when the fall of the Eternal Empire begins, endless disasters will spread across the earth.

This is the evil result caused by her own hands.

She knew that she was about to lose everything, and she should have understood.

But she loves too much, and there are too many things she can't let go of.

Even if you seek help from the sages of the ether, you will forever erase your original name and modify your past history. But fate is not something that can be fooled so easily.

She thought that after the fall of the empire, she could retire and return to her hometown. But after everything was over, she had nowhere to go but the ruins.

Everything she held dear was completely destroyed with the fall of the empire.

First there was a natural disaster, then an earthquake, then the distortion caused by the loss of Tianyuan, and the military disaster caused by the chaos... Everything she cared about was completely destroyed in just seven days.

Her daughter, brother, sister, mother, friends...even every ordinary person who recognized her name were all destroyed by the disaster.

Only the lonely sages are left, wandering among the ruins and deserts, receiving honors and curses.

"How ironic. She personally ended the rule of the Eternal Empire, hoping to create an ideal country, but instead she created disasters and caused endless poison...

Therefore, he became the first cursed person in history to survive a disaster."

The prophet looked around at the false yesterday in front of him and sighed: "Even if I spend the rest of my life and work hard on this, I want to make everything return to before the disaster happened, and I want to get back what I lost.

But what is lost is lost, even if it is fake, it cannot come back.

All that is left is this false dream and the cycle of suffering that can never stop."

In the brief silence, Ji Jue was stunned for a long time: "Can't it be done?"

"It can't be done."

The prophet replied emphatically.

So Ji Jue fell silent.

As if frozen, he stared blankly into the air, and in his ears he seemed to hear the roar of the train in the distance, as well as the erratic and distant singing.

How come it can't be done?

It is clear that sages are superior to the world, and it is clear that the embers of creation are endless!

This world is too huge and too gorgeous.

The Twelve Great Goods, the Nine Great Evil Fools, the Federation, the Empire, Middle-earth, the Security Bureau, the Wild Set, the Ring of Taiyi... so many blessings, so many abilities, and so much power that I can only dream of.

He had, no, still has illusions until now.

Perhaps in the future, when I am strong enough and have enough power, I can recover everything I have lost, or even prevent that disaster from happening.

"I thought there would be a chance."

He was talking to himself, but he didn't know who he should talk to.

"She thinks so too. What you see is the end." The prophet sneered, "People cannot change their past, nor can they choose why they become successful...

What is gone will eventually pass away, no matter how unwilling it is, no matter how many regrets there are.

That’s why the present is more valuable than the future.”

She was indifferent at first, unable to suppress her contempt, but in the end, she couldn't help but stop. She just sighed: "Why do you let me, a puppet who can't even control his own life, teach you such a truth, Ji Jue?"

"Who knows?"

Ji Jue murmured softly to himself: "Who would be willing to do this?"

When facing fate, should we bow our heads docilely, endure silently, or resist without knowing our own capabilities?

What lay before him was the tragic end left by the pioneers.
Chapter completed!
