Chapter 19: Seven Demon Blades Defying the Heavens
Zhang Xuan's heart skipped a beat; having just barely managed to hoodwink Meng Qi, he felt a bit nervous.
He dared not spoil everything for Meng Qi, as the Other Shore in Meng Qi's world was too much of a bug, capable of modifying the timeline and changing the past and future at any time.
Everything proceeded according to the will of the Other Shore; one slight misstep and they would simply reset everything.
Meng Qi's future experiences were too tragic, too heartbreaking.
If he were to spoil everything for Meng Qi and Meng Qi simply gave up, that would be a huge disaster.
Although Zhang Xuan wanted to get ahead by swindling and bluffing, he still needed a win-win situation; he couldn't just swindle someone to their death.
Spoiling a portion of the future, letting the other party change their fate to get the result he wanted, while Zhang Xuan gained certain benefits from it—that was a win-win for everyone.
But if the other party ended up dead because of the spoilers, that would be a huge disaster.
Therefore, he was quite cautious when it came to spoilers for Meng Qi.
Regarding Chen Nan, Zhang Xuan also felt a bit conflicted; this person's fate was no less tragic than Meng Qi's—both were top-tier unlucky souls.
Zhang Xuan had just felt that the Heavenly Dao Controller's debut wasn't successful enough, but now, seeing Chen Nan crowd around, he felt a surge of joy.
Compared to Meng Qi, whose fate line was basically set in stone, Chen Nan, while equally unlucky—unlucky to the extreme—had a much freer fate line.
Heavenly Dao Controller: I know what you want to ask; Zhang Xuan and Meng Qi should both be able to give you some answers, no need to ask me.
I am very familiar with your world; I have a certain connection with him.
Knowing too much is not of much benefit to you; what I can tell you is that your father and your beloved have not died.
It is just that their state is not very good; you need to be strong enough to change it.
Chen Nan's heart shook; he felt both joy and unease.
Waking up after ten thousand years, the familiar items, mountains, earth, rivers, and everything else had changed; he felt very anxious and uneasy, most worried about his parents and his former beloved, Yuxin.
Now that he knew they were still alive, just in a bad state, he felt very relieved and couldn't help but clench his fists.
"Everything that can be changed, I will change."
"Possessing my former cultivation talent, I will definitely reach higher, and then change everything."
Chen Nan wanted to ask more, but the Heavenly Dao Controller's avatar had already dimmed and vanished without a trace.
He couldn't help but sigh; if he could, he would of course want to get more from the Heavenly Dao Controller, as this was, after all, a top-tier big shot.
And he was no stranger to the names Zhang Xuan and Meng Qi mentioned by the Heavenly Dao Controller, nor was he unfamiliar with the prefixes before their names.
Both were figures at Tier 1; for him, who was currently Tier 1, about to reach Tier 2 perfection, and just barely Tier 3, they were still a little bit lacking.
Zhang Sanfeng: Has that person left?
It wasn't until the Heavenly Dao Controller had been gone for a while that Zhang Sanfeng spoke, and it was precisely Zhang Sanfeng's words that broke the silence in the Chat Group.
The previously quiet Chat Group suddenly became active.
Not Wanting to Be a Monk (Meng Qi): Holy crap, this Heavenly Dao Controller is too strong. Why is he only rated as Tier 10 in the level evaluation? Is this Tier 10? What is the level above this like? It's simply terrifying!
Meng Qi's heart was full of amazement, and he had once again recovered his previously lively personality.
Despite having suffered a huge change, his temperament recovered very quickly.
I Woke Up After Ten Thousand Years: It is indeed unimaginably strong. I originally thought my experience was bizarre enough—waking up to find the surroundings full of dead Gods and Demons, and I was buried among them—but looking at it now, I was narrow-minded.
The scenes that appeared when the Heavenly Dao Controller showed up—any one of those people was not inferior to those buried beside me.
Zhang Sanfeng:?
Zhang Xuan:?
Not Wanting to Be a Monk (Meng Qi):? Tell me more!
When the Heavenly Dao Controller appeared, the Group Members were all excited, but there was also a distinct sense of oppression.
After all, the Heavenly Dao Controller's presence was too high-level, and the group wasn't familiar with the Heavenly Dao Controller, so they wanted to talk but didn't know how.
Once the Heavenly Dao Controller left, the whole group suddenly came to life.
Chen Nan's heart stirred, and he didn't hide anything; after all, the Heavenly Dao Controller had known his fate just by glancing at him, and had said that Meng Qi and Zhang Xuan likely knew about it.
Chen Nan naturally had to explain the cause of the matter so that he could receive fate guidance from Zhang Xuan and Meng Qi.
I Woke Up After Ten Thousand Years: I don't know what happened. Ten thousand years ago I died, and everything should have turned to ash, but when I woke up, I was in the cemetery of the Shenmo Lingyuan, and I crawled out of a grave...
Even though quite a long time had passed, Chen Nan's voice still trembled when he reached this point.
He was even a bit uneasy; he was terrified, he was afraid.
He was not afraid of death; otherwise, ten thousand years ago, he wouldn't have gone to a duel in despair, almost like committing suicide.
What he feared was that after waking up ten thousand years later, everything had become a thing of the past—his father, his mother, his former beloved Yuxin, all turned to smoke.
In the Shaolin Miscellaneous Affairs Courtyard, Meng Qi couldn't help but curse: "Holy crap!"
This time, at the Lunhui Zhi Zhu, he had seen the relevant exchange option for the Saint Body, and before he transmigrated from Earth, he was no stranger to Covering the Sky or the Saint Body.
At the same time, although Chen Nan's words were complex, he recognized this opening at a glance.
"Divine Tomb? My god!"
He hadn't read the whole of Divine Tomb, but he was quite familiar with the beginning.
As soon as Chen Nan mentioned it, he thought of it.
Not Wanting to Be a Monk (Meng Qi): I might really know some things... but not completely. I didn't read it in great detail back then, so I'm afraid I can't give you much help.
I have a vague impression that the reason you were resurrected was because of your father's help; your father is unimaginably powerful.
Meng Qi indeed couldn't remember many details from back then, but he believed a lot of what Zhang Xuan had said earlier—that the higher the energy of a world, the more information it projected into lower-energy worlds.
If it were only Zhang Sanfeng and Chen Nan, he wouldn't be willing to believe it.
But now that he himself was also a record within some book, he had no choice but to believe it.
"And the Lunhui Zhi Zhu also has the Saint Body, and many supreme Martial Arts from the Martial Arts novels I read in my previous life, like the Formless Sword Qi, the Heaven-Changing and Earth-Striking Great Method..."
"Perhaps for those true figures who stand at the very top of the world, they can observe the corresponding fate of all worlds."
A flash of realization dawned on Meng Qi, while Chen Nan was extremely excited.
"I was resurrected by my father. Does my father actually possess such ability? To bring the dead back to life—even those in the Immortal Martial Realm could not achieve this, right?"
Chen Nan's heart shook; he wanted to ask more, but Meng Qi did not really understand the Divine Tomb, so Chen Nan, feeling helpless, turned to ask Zhang Xuan instead.
Zhang Xuan was silent for a moment. Compared to Meng Qi's world, where those on the Other Shore could restart time at will, the world Chen Nan resided in, while equally high-level, did not cause as much concern even if many details were leaked.
Furthermore, Chen Nan had sent him a Dragon Pearl as payment that morning; having accepted someone's Red Packet for nothing, Zhang Xuan also felt a bit uneasy.
After pondering for a moment, Zhang Xuan gathered the chapters of the Divine Tomb's Human Realm from his memory into a book, then used the Chat Group's ability to turn it into images and sent them privately to Chen Nan.
Zhang Xuan: The relevant information has been sent to you privately, but limited by the current level of the Chat Group, although I know more information, it involves too many powerful figures, and I have no way to make their figures appear; if I were to force it, it would only result in a mess of garbled code...
A higher Chat Group level is required to send more.
The reason was, of course, false, but as the Chat Group Owner, Zhang Xuan simply added this rule to the Chat Group, and naturally, the lie became the truth.
Besides, if he told the whole truth and spoiled everything directly, shouldn't he collect some payment?
If you go directly to a fortune teller, those who are accurate require very generous compensation.
Zhang Xuan did not feel guilty about doing this; directly spoiling the future for others and calculating their fate so precisely—what fortune teller in the world has this ability? Collecting some payment is perfectly reasonable.
After Chen Nan watched it silently, his heart was also shaking wildly, and he felt a strange sensation.
"Zijin Shenlong, one hundred times, Dantai Xuan, Dantai Holy Land, Shoumu Laoren, Yuxin..."
Countless pieces of information swirled in his mind, making his heart surge and giving rise to endless hope.
"So they are all still there; then this time, I must make up for all the regrets."
Chen Nan clenched his fists firmly, and at this moment, Dantai Gucheng let out a loud boom, and a torrential rain poured down.
Amidst the endless wind and rain, Chen Nan's heart stirred; the True Qi that had been completely dissipated by the Heaven-Melting Earth-Fusing Great Method was reborn in an instant, and he once again stood at the peak of Tier 2.
It felt as if infinite power was erupting within his body at any moment; he was originally going to recover his strength in this area, and now, after learning about the relevant situation of the Human Realm, his strength was fully restored with just a thought.
Thinking of the generous payment he had received from the other party, Chen Nan's heart stirred, wondering how to repay him.
When he woke up from the Shenmo Lingyuan, even the invulnerable celestial silkworm silk from back then had rotted away; he could be said to have nothing else on him.
The Dragon Pearl he had obtained from the Ten Thousand Mountains had already been sent as a Red Packet; thinking carefully, he really did not have many items on him.
After a silence, Chen Nan thought about it and decided to send some martial arts; the ancestral martial arts, the Demon Summoning Scripture, could of course not be passed on casually, but other methods could be tried.
Ding, Chen Nan has sent a Red Packet!
Ding, Chen Nan has sent the Group File: Heaven-Defying Seven Demon Blades!
Ding, you have claimed Chen Nan's Red Packet: Heaven-Defying Seven Demon Blades!
Zhang Xuan's heart shook violently; he had not expected such an unexpected windfall.
