Chapter 676: ’Where It Is’

Chapter 676: ’Where It Is’

The cultivation world.

Blood Rain was cultivating by herself in a secluded mountain range.

She suddenly sensed something and stood up from the ground.

"What exactly happened? Why am I suddenly so excited and filled with the desire to kill? "

She paced back and forth a few times, then suddenly reached her hand into the void of space to grab a pale white bone.

"What is this? Why does it feel so familiar to me ... "

Blood Rain spoke with a dreamy tone.

She slowly pulled it back.

The flag that was completely manifested from black blood was pulled out, fluttering in the wind.

Strange fluctuations were being emitted from the flag, spreading into the endless void of space.

The flag of [Era Changing].

Blood Rain’s expression was blank, her gaze alternated between confusion and clarity.

"I remember now ... I’m a flag bearer."

She looked at the black blood flag in her hand.

Ferocious outlines began to manifest on the flag.

Her memories before and after reincarnation both appeared in her mind, connecting with each other to reveal the truth of what happened in the past.

Blood Rain’s expression alternated between ferocious, confused, and furious. For a moment, countless emotions appeared on her beautiful face, making her look like she was in some sort of deep suffering.

"Ah ..."

She uttered a sound that sounded like both a whimper and a roar, then knelt down on the ground, grabbing her chest as if she wanted to rip her heart out.

All of a sudden.

Another face silently appeared on the black blood flag, looking down at her: 「 How incredible, there are living beings capable of giving our flag bearer a sense of humanity ... 」

「 Let us do it. 」

「Come and destroy this final place.」

Blood Rain breathed heavily as she stood up, her expression no longer resembling a human.

She held the white bone flag and gritted her teeth: 「 No, I am the flag that conquers all living beings, I ... shall end everything and retrieve my lost demonic nature. 」

The ferocious faces on the Black Blood Flag looked at it quietly.

Finally.

They all disappeared into the flag.

Only a single statement could be heard from the black blood, drifting in the wind:

「 You have one final chance. 」

...

[You currently have no more Role Points]

[Within the Occultism Acting Technique, you’ve obtained the ability ’Dramatist’]

[Note: By activating this ability, you can turn all real things into illusions, as well as cancel this effect at any time]

[To use this ability, you need to draw power from a True Card]

All the burning words hovered motionlessly in the air.

True Card

What is a real card?

Liu Ping was puzzled. Suddenly, a voice rang in his ears.

"Finally, in the endless ruins, I saw the first ray of light."

Liu Ping had a thought.

The visor of the giant armor opened as he walked out and ordered, "Wait here."

"Yes, Master."

The giant armor replied.

It was quite strange. This armor had supreme power, but it could not be put away. It could only float in the void.

Liu Ping’s figure flashed as he shuttled in a certain direction.

Even with his speed, he flew for about 15 minutes before he finally saw the person who made the sound.

It was a lady.

She wore an ancient and plain long dress and wore a top hat. She held a scepter in her hand and looked at Liu Ping quietly.

She was the Lady of Mysteries.

"Are you waiting for me?" Liu Ping asked.

"I can know the details of all powers, so when you gained that ability, I was able to sense it." Lady Mystery replied.

"So that’s why, but I do have something I need to ask you." Liu Ping said.

"What is it?" Lady Mystery asked.

"When I wore that armor, my power increased countless times, so I gained the ability to observe all Laws of the void. I found that time doesn’t seem to exist at all." Liu Ping said.

Lady Mystery reached her hand out and lightly pulled.

A card abruptly appeared in her hand, giving off layers of mist that permeated the air.

This Card was grey in color without any power fluctuations, only a thick sense of death that seemed to want to break out from the Card.

Cracks began to appear on the Card.

Lady Mystery didn’t dare to touch it too much and could only carefully let it hover in the air, afraid that it would break into pieces if she wasn’t careful.

Liu Ping squinted his eyes and looked at the front of the Card.

There was a black and white clock drawn on the front of the Card, but the clock seemed to have been destroyed by something as it lay on the ground with all its hands no longer moving.

Lines of burning words appeared from the void of space above the Card:

[Time]

[One of the Law Cards]

[Destroyed]

Time had been destroyed.

Although he already knew this result, Liu Ping still felt his heart tighten and couldn’t help but ask:

"The man who kept spinning the coin in the bar, he had always been helping me. He once gave me a Day and Night Parade, that was the power of Time."

"It was indeed the power of Time, but that was something I simulated. After all, I am the Master of Mystery, I know the true essence of all powers." the woman softly said.

"Is he really dead?" Liu Ping asked.

Lady Mystery sighed. "It’s true."

"When did this happen?" Liu Ping continued to ask.

"A long time ago, before everything here happened, he was already dead." Lady Mystery answered.

Liu Ping’s gaze fell back onto the Card.

"Saving Time will be beneficial to us. To be honest, he is my lover, I hope you can save him." Lady Mystery said.

"Now?" Liu Ping asked.

"No, we need to face the imminent danger first. Your previous consideration was correct, rather than facing the other demons, it’s better to face the weakened Blood Rain." Lady Mystery said.

"Why not revive Time first? If he’s alive, he’ll be a great help to us. "Liu Ping was confused.

"Because now is not the right time." Lady Mystery sighed, "Actually, I can tell you now, when did Time die."

She pointed at the floating grey Card and softly said:

"Evil Spirits destroyed all worlds, ending the previous era and starting their own era. Time was besieged by billions of Evil Spirits and fell into destruction. From then on, all living things lost their past and future, everything came to an end."

The Warden Saber at Liu Ping’s waist suddenly vibrated.

Lady Mystery also raised her scepter and waved it around the void, as if she was knocking something.

Two lines of burning text appeared:

[The Warden Saber scabbard’s’ Silence ’is in effect]

[With Lady Mystery’s cooperation, the current secret has been completely suppressed and will not be known by any other existence]

Liu Ping’s expression didn’t change as he calmly said: "Even if you can simulate time, you can’t make me travel through the river of time so many times, in the endless past and future, and do so many things that can affect karma."

"You might not understand, I’m only simulating time. Time no longer exists, it’s been destroyed." Lady Mystery replied.

"What about the other Laws?"

"They’re all dead."

"Then you ..."

"Only I’m left, I simulated all the Laws."

"Then the past, present and future that I’ve seen ... what exactly are they?" Liu Ping was confused.

"The past cannot be obtained, the present cannot be obtained, and the future cannot be obtained, because ... the place we’re at, even without time and the other Laws, it can still exist. It is the last place to fight against the Evil Spirits." Lady Mystery explained.

"You’re talking about the Divine Pillar of Eternal Night and Purgatory, aren’t you?" Liu Ping asked.

"Purgatory and Eternal Night is the most unique Divine Pillar, the lower half punishes all sinful spirits, while the upper half subdues all dead heroic spirits ... it exists in this place, shouldering the last shred of hope for all eras." Lady Mystery explained.

Liu Ping was stunned.

The lower half punishes all sinful spirits ...

That’s not right!

This should be describing the Divine Pillar of Purgatory, it was clearly in the upper half, and the Divine Pillar of Void above it had already produced the Land of Origin of Souls.

As for the "upper half subdues all dead spirits", it was obviously referring to the Divine Pillar of Eternal Night.

Could it be?

The world is upside down?

"The world is upside down? How can that be? Time doesn’t exist, and the world is upside down, then what is this’ place ’that you’re talking about? Why hasn’t it been conquered by the Evil Spirits? "Liu Ping asked.

"The Evil Spirits don’t use the thoughts of living beings to judge the world, so they can’t find this place, other than the flag bearer, the power of the Era Changing will forcefully send them in." Lady Mystery explained.

Liu Ping didn’t say anything, he just looked at her and said softly."Are the companions around me all fake existences?"

"No." Lady Mystery replied.

"Then they." Liu Ping hesitated.

"Let me be frank, every companion around you, other than the Gods of the Four Saint Pillars, are not real enough, am I right?"

Lady Mystery looked at Liu Ping.

Liu Ping didn’t say anything.

"Other than the Pixie race, everything around you is a Heroic Spirit." Lady Mystery continued.

"The souls of your companions are all slumbering in the Eternal Night, and the reason why they can come to your side and fight with you is because of this’ place ’"

A thought suddenly appeared in Liu Ping’s mind.

This thought was so crazy that even though he had deduced the result, he still couldn’t believe it.

He could only stare at Lady Mystery.

Lady Mystery nodded and said softly, "Yes, this is the Dream World"

"You and I"

"We are in the Dream World of all dead spirits"
