“The next day, the Federation received the news and realized the seriousness of the matter.”
“Our world has changed.”
“Myths are no longer myths. Or rather, myths have been resurrected.”
“Dao Sect, Buddhist Sect, and martial artists.”
“All the information proves one thing. In the words of the Daoist and Buddhist sects, the Dharma Ending Tribulation has passed. The spiritual energy has recovered.”
An Ya’s tone was very calm. She was clearly talking about something that was closely related to them, but she was telling it as if she was telling a story.
Xu Bai frowned and did not speak.
Su Meng was also in contact with Xiao Jingtian, who had possessed her from the Great Desolate World. She should have known some things, but because her foundation was damaged, she did not know these things.
Still…
Su Meng didn’t think too much about it. Instead, she blinked and looked at An
Ya. “Sister An Ya, the recovery of spiritual energy should be a good thing.”
The recovery of spiritual energy meant that one could cultivate and become transcendent.
Cultivation could allow one to live forever!
Although the Federation had always been ruled by science, the people who lived in the Federation had heard of the legends that had been passed down for a long time. How could they not have a dream of cultivation in their hearts?
She was no exception. If she couldn’t bear to part with her master, Su Meng would have pestered her Uncle Pu Xin long ago and said that she wanted to enter that special disaster team no matter what.
As Su Meng spoke, she looked at Xu Bai. “Master, don’t you think so?”
Xu Bai didn’t say anything. Instead, he looked at An Ya because he knew that An Ya’s story wasn’t over yet.
Indeed.
An Ya looked at Su Meng and smiled. Then, she shook her head. “Yes, the recovery of spiritual energy allows us to pursue myths and even become myths. It’s indeed a good thing, but what if the recovery of spiritual energy is not the literal recovery of spiritual energy?”
Su Meng was slightly stunned.
“Sister An Ya, what do you mean?”
“This is because the spiritual energy of our Federation is not awakened at all. The source of this spiritual energy is the Great Desolate World that has opened the quantum space channel.’
“What?”
Su Meng’s jaw dropped when she heard that.
Xu Bai’s eyebrows twitched as he looked at An Ya. “Spiritual energy… came from the Great Desolate World?”
“Right!”
An Ya nodded.
“Furthermore, ever since the explosion in the quantum laboratory, the
Federation has become more certain of one thing.”
“What?”
“The Great Desolate World is gradually fusing with our world.”
Although Xu Bai had already speculated about this result after hearing Han Feng talk about the meaning of Two Moons in the Sky.
But..
Speculation was one thing, but once this speculation was confirmed, it was another.
The two worlds were merging?
Xu Bai frowned. Even though he knew that An Ya wouldn’t lie, he still asked in disbelief, “How is this possible?”
An Ya smiled and looked at Xu Bai. “If I’m not wrong, you already know that Liu San has been possessed by Xiao Jingtian from the Great Desolate World.”
As she spoke.
An Ya glanced at Su Meng.
Xu Bai noticed An Ya’s actions and neither admitted nor denied them.
An Ya then said, “However, what you see is only a kind of people from the Great Desolate World who have come to our world. Not only can they come to our world through possession, but it’s actually not common for them to possess us. Most of the people from the Great Desolate World have reincarnated. Those who are stronger can directly transmigrate with their bodies.”
Possessed?
Xu Bai knew this. He had also seen it. Liu San had been possessed by Xiao Jingtian. However, ne was unlucky ana was sent to the netherworld as soon as he was possessed.
Reincarnation?
Skinny Monkey.
Xu Bai also knew that Skinny Monkey had awakened his memories of the Great Desolate World after reincarnation.
But..
“Transmigration of the physical body?” “Yes, and you should know this person too.”
“…Xiao Jingnan?”
When Xu Bai heard An Ya’s words, the only two people in the Great Desolate World who he knew and didn’t die instantly appeared in his mind. They were Xiao Jingtian’s brother, Xiao Jingnan.
“Did Xiao Jingnan transmigrate here physically?”
“That’s right.”
An Ya nodded.
“Xiao Jingnan is an Invigorated Meridian Realm martial artist. Moreover, he’s in the high-grade Invigorated Meridian Realm. For him, it’s not difficult for his body to transmigrate here. What’s difficult is how his body transmigrated here.”
“…Two Moons in the Sky?”
Xu Bai thought of what Han Feng had said before he died. They planned to use the opportunity of Two Moons in the Sky to send the Holy Maiden of their Holy Sect here.
An Ya nodded again.
“Xiao Jingnan was discovered by Homeland Security ten months ago. At that time, we were very surprised.”
“This is because transmigration requires a channel. Even the person with the highest realm in the Great Desolate World can’t transmigrate here with their body. Therefore, they need to use the channel.”
“In other words, the quantum space channel that was opened at the Quantum Experiment Center back then.”
“That’s the world passage that connects the Great Desolate World to the Federation.”
“However, that place has already been strictly guarded by someone. There are mighty people from the Daoist Sect and Buddhist Sect guarding it. It’s impossible for Xiao Jingnan to escape from under their noses.”
Xu Bai listened to An Ya and continued, “So, the only way for Xiao Jingnan to come to our world is the so-called Two Moons in the Sky?”
An Ya nodded.
“Yesterday, after you left the Internal Affairs Inspection Office, I went to look for Su Bancheng. He does know about Two Moons in the Sky, but like me, he doesn’t know what this means.”
“I know.”
Xu Bai laughed.
An Ya looked at Xu Bai. “So it’s your turn now. I’ve told you what you want to know. It’s time for you to tell me what Two Moons in the Sky mean.”
Xu Bai smiled. “Of course.”
He might not have any other merits, but keeping his word was his unchanging belief.
If a person did not keep his word, he would not stand up!
Xu Bai told An Ya what Han Feng told him about Two Moons in the Sky when he was on the fifth floor.
What he adapted was only Han Feng’s stance when he said this to him. He changed Han Feng’s intention to stall for time to the point that Han Feng was just a standard antagonist. Like all antagonists, he liked to force the protagonist before killing him and smugly exposing their plan.
Xu Bai did not change the content.
He told An Ya exactly what Han Feng told him.
Xu Bai finished speaking.
It was An Ya’s turn to frown. “Two Moons in the Sky, boundless heavenly secrets.”
“Full moon next month?”
“When the passageway is open, will the Holy Maiden of the Great Desolate World’s Holy Sect come?”
An Ya came back to her senses and looked at Xu Bai. “Xu Bai, are you sure that Han Feng really said that?”
Xu Bai frowned and asked, “Is there something wrong?”
An Ya frowned.
“The Great Desolate World’s Holy Sect is also known as the Ming Cult. However, in the Great Desolate World, it’s called the Demonic Sect by the orthodox transcendents there. They call themselves the Holy Fire. The Holy Fire is bright, and the Holy Fire is dazzling.”
“Right, right!”
Xu Bai’s eyes lit up. He nodded and said, “This slogan sounds a little childish. That’s right. Han Feng shouted these two sentences back then.”
What on earth was “Holy Fire is bright”?
And the “Holy Fire is dazzling’?
He was speechless.
Still…
This slogan was indeed quite catchy.
Xu Bai thought to himself.
The next second.
An Ya came back to her senses and looked at Xu Bai.
She shook her head. “That’s not right!”
“…What’s wrong?”
“The Holy Maiden of the Great Desolate World’s Holy Sect is a person second only to the Holy Lord in their Holy Sect.”
“That’s right.”
When Xu Bai heard this, he did not feel that there was anything wrong. “Han Feng is saying that this Holy Maiden will descend on us on the night of the full moon next month when the Two Moons in the Sky are together.”
After saying that, Xu Bai recalled seriously and confirmed that this was what Han Feng had told him in his memory.
Xu Bai frowned and said, “Is there something wrong? I think Han Feng has no reason to lie to me.”
At that time, he was looking at Han Feng’s expression.
At that time, Han Feng did not show any signs of lying. At the very least, from Han Feng’s expression, he was telling the truth.
However, An Ya didn’t think so. “There’s a big problem.”
“There’s no problem.”
“The Holy Maiden of the Great Desolate World is already dead.”
“Is she… dead?”
Xu Bai thought of all sorts of possibilities, but he did not expect to hear such an answer.
The Holy Maiden was dead?
“Could she be the second Holy Maiden of the Holy Sect?”
“There’s only one Holy Sect in the Great Desolate World’s Holy Sect.”
“Hmm…”
Xu Bai took a deep breath and thought of a possibility. “Could it be that the
Holy Maiden isn’t dead? What if the Holy Maiden faked her death? That’s also possible.”
After all, the Holy Maiden was the Holy Maiden of the Great Desolate World’s Holy Sect.
What happened in the Great Desolate World was not in their world. They had not seen it with their own eyes. It was also possible to fake death.
An Ya shook her head.
“That’s impossible. The Holy Maiden is already dead. I’m very sure.”
“Are you sure?”
“Right.”
Xu Bai glanced at An Ya suspiciously.
An Ya took a deep breath and looked at Xu Bai. She said in a deep voice, “The Holy Maiden of the Great Desolate World died five years ago. She was ambushed by the Daoist Sect, Buddhist Sect, and demon races in the Great Desolate World.”
When Xu Bai heard this, he was a little curious. “Are you very clear about this?” An Ya sneered.
“That’s because it was our Federation back then… The Daoist, Buddhist, and demon races of the Federation attacked and killed her. We naturally know about it.”
Xu Bai looked at An Ya and could clearly sense that she was a little agitated.
An Ya noticed it too. She took a deep breath to calm herself down.
Xu Bai stroked his chin. “However, Han Feng did say that. He did say that the Holy Maiden would descend to this world on the night of the full moon next month.’
An Ya shook her head again. “Well…”
At this point, An Ya, who was about to deny this possibility again, suddenly paused and looked at Xu Bai. “Are you sure Han Feng said that she will descend and not come?”
Xu Bai frowned. “I’ve been talking about the descent.”
An Ya narrowed her eyes.
The next second.
An Ya seemed to have thought of something. She turned around and walked out of the ward.
