Chapter 205: Mu Bingyao's Reincarnation Secret
As time passed, whether it was the power of the Divine Guards themselves or the power of the gods possessing them, all were completely exhausted by Han Yu.
Finally, Han Yu gave his sword a light wave, and the Divine Guards were once again submerged by Sword Qi, transforming into cluster after cluster of Immortal God essence.
Outside the Fan Ling Jie, in the vast universe, the true bodies of various gods stood proudly atop stars; they also sensed that their own portion of essence power had vanished without a trace, and they knew the final outcome.
They had lost after all, completely losing control over the Shen Ji Zhi Di; the only plan now was to notify the Immortal Dynasty God King and let them handle this mess.
"Damn Han Yu, do you think you've won just by defeating us? Heh, with the God King controlling the big picture, what kind of heaven can an ant walking out of a mortal world possibly overturn?"
"What is damned is destined to die, what should be extinguished must be extinguished; this Land of Divine Opportunity will eventually belong to my Yinghuo Immortal Dynasty!"
……
These true bodies of the gods had been stationed here for hundreds of millions of years; now that their efforts had fallen short at the final hurdle, they could only return in defeat. They left behind a portion of gods to continue guarding, while the other portion prepared to cross the starry sky to return to the Yinghuo Immortal Dynasty headquarters and report everything that had happened here.
Traveling back and forth like this, even with constant use of space-traversal techniques, would require a hundred years of time; however, as long as they informed the God King, the God King could cross thousands of star seas and arrive at this starry sky in at most a few dozen days.
Everything that happened in the Fan Ling Jie had already been observed by Mu Bingyao and the others; when they saw Han Yu annihilating a group of Profound Immortal realm Divine Guards as if slaughtering chickens and dogs, they were all deeply shocked.
Mu Bingyao admitted that Han Yu's existence had once again refreshed her understanding; the difficult problems she had not been able to solve despite reincarnating so many times had actually been handled so easily by that guy.
Although the process looked quite perilous, compared to her own death-reincarnation cycle after cycle, Han Yu's effort this time was countless times easier.
"Strange, too strange; I always feel like something isn't right!"
Mu Bingyao did not know why, but she always felt that Han Yu's appearance was too abrupt.
If Han Yu had this kind of ability, then in her previous thousands of reincarnations, he absolutely would not have remained unknown.
Unless Han Yu was, in her previous reincarnations, simply an unremarkable existence.
Logically speaking, even if such an existence became involved in her karma due to her influence in this life, it would be impossible for him to become this powerful; her influence on him was limited after all, and no matter how she influenced him, it shouldn't have been enough to let this guy turn the Fan Ling Jie upside down.
Everything was too abrupt, so abrupt that it was highly irrational.
Mu Bingyao pondered continuously in her heart, but she could not grasp the truth.
She temporarily set aside the doubts in her heart; regardless, the current situation was entirely beneficial and harmless to her.
Liu Ruyan and Ji Yanling also saw the battle happening on the other side of the Fan Ling Jie through Mu Bingyao's space prism; both of them felt a complex mix of emotions, feeling happy because of Han Yu's powerful strength, yet also feeling inferior due to the gap between themselves and Han Yu.
Especially Ji Yanling, who had thought that after breaking through to the Emperor Realm, she would be able to provide Han Yu with significant help.
But seeing the battle on the other side through the space prism, even though those Divine Guards were being suppressed by Han Yu, they could all feel the terror of the Profound Immortal realm powerhouses; every move they made could be called world-destroying, and a casual strike could shatter a star into thousands of fragments.
They didn't lose to Han Yu because they were weak, but because Han Yu was too strong.
Any one of those many Divine Guards could have wiped out the entire world if placed in the Fan Ling Jie, yet so many terrifying existences were actually pressed until they couldn't catch their breath by Han Yu; Han Yu's strength was truly astonishing.
The group was just preparing to go find Han Yu, but the next moment, the surrounding space fluctuated rapidly, and Han Yu's figure appeared before the three women.
Seeing the three women, Han Yu spoke up.
"There is one piece of good news and one piece of bad news; which one do you want to hear?"
The three women all stared at Han Yu with curiosity, and the latter did not keep them in suspense, directly explaining.
"The good news is that those Immortal Gods have all been driven away by me; they've likely gone back to fetch reinforcements, so we should be able to have a period of peaceful days."
"As for the bad news, it's that before long, even stronger existences will likely descend; by then, I don't think I'll be able to hold them off."
Han Yu was very clear about the terror of that God King; even the Heavenly Dao of the Fan Ling Jie had to fear the other party to some extent, let alone Han Yu, this Small Heavenly Dao.
And during this period, even if he exhausted all his efforts to cultivate Ji Yanling and Xiao Yuyao, Han Yu had no confidence that he could gain enough power in a few decades to contend with that God King.
What's more, judging from the intelligence obtained earlier, the Yinghuo Immortal Dynasty had more than just that one God King!
Han Yu roughly explained the situation of the outside world to the group; upon learning this information, the three women all fell into deep silence.
Especially Mu Bingyao; she had obtained more information from Han Yu, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.
Han Yu noticed that Mu Bingyao clearly had something on her mind and immediately asked: "Master, do you have something to say?"
Mu Bingyao hesitated for a long time, then stopped hiding it and directly confessed her identity.
"I have something to tell you all; I don't know if you'll believe it, but actually, I am a Reincarnator..."
Mu Bingyao directly gave a rough account of how she had reincarnated time and again, trying various methods to break the cycle and overthrow the rule of the Worshiping God Palace, only to fail in the end.
After hearing this, Han Yu and the others also fell into deep silence.
Han Yu suddenly realized a problem: if Mu Bingyao was a Reincarnator, then in her previous reincarnations, was he among them, and if so, what was the situation?
After Mu Bingyao finished speaking, she stared at Han Yu, her eyes filled with intense confusion.
"Han Yu, you might know what I'm going to ask; in the many times I reincarnated before, you never showed anything unique. If you had even one ten-thousandth of the strength you have in this reincarnation, it would be impossible for me not to know of your existence. So, can you tell me the reason?"
Regarding Mu Bingyao's doubt, Han Yu expressed that he could understand; if he were Mu Bingyao, having reincarnated so many times, and suddenly a variable like himself appeared, he would also be confused.
If Mu Bingyao's life were a novel, her countless reincarnations were for the sake of breaking the cycle, experiencing countless joys and sorrows, yet the moment he appeared, that desperate cycle was suddenly broken with ease—so easily and with so few twists that Mu Bingyao, the protagonist of this novel, didn't even have much sense of participation. This truly did not fit the other party's worldview.
Han Yu himself also felt it was somewhat absurd; he seemed to be an outsider who had jumped into a novel, and this novel should have had Mu Bingyao as the protagonist.
No...
Han Yu suddenly thought of another question, so he asked Mu Bingyao in return.
"Master, in your previous reincarnations, had you ever heard of the existence of Junior Sister Yanling?"
Mu Bingyao was stunned upon hearing this; she thought carefully, and it seemed she had never heard of Ji Yanling's existence in her previous reincarnations.
She immediately shook her head and spoke directly: "In the previous reincarnations, I had not heard of her either."
Han Yu continued to ask.
"Then what about Xiao Yuyao?"
Mu Bingyao shook her head again.
Han Yu narrowed his eyes instantly; he also felt a deep sense of confusion.
"Master, have you ever considered a possibility: that your so-called reincarnation is just a time loop within the Fan Ling Jie, a repetition under the influence of this Heavenly Dao?"
Hearing Han Yu's words, Mu Bingyao nodded, then shook her head.
"I have also thought about this question, but if that were the case, I have reincarnated so many times—why would those gods of the Worshiping God Palace also enter the cycle? Their true bodies are outside the Fan Ling Jie."
"Even if the Heavenly Dao power of the Spirit-Extinguishing Realm could influence them, I have reincarnated so many times, and the total time of my reincarnations is at least tens of millions of years. If it were just a reincarnation within the Spirit-Extinguishing Realm, then the so-called Yinghuo Immortal Dynasty couldn't possibly have failed to notice, right?"
"Didn't you just say that those deities in the Worshiping Temple have to report the situation of Spirit-Extinguishing Realm to the Yinghuo Immortal Dynasty every so often?"
Hearing Mu Bingyao's analysis, before Han Yu could speak, Ji Yanling, who was to the side, said.
"Is there a possibility that the Yinghuo Immortal Dynasty knows you are reincarnating and is deliberately ignoring it, or perhaps they are plotting something?"
Once these words were spoken, Mu Bingyao only felt her scalp tingle; some details from many of her reincarnations were suddenly connected.
"Right, why didn't I think of this situation? I should have thought of it!"
Mu Bingyao clutched her head, feeling that something was not quite right.
She felt that her life seemed to have been constantly manipulated by some unknown existences; if not for Ji Yanling's reminder, she might never have thought of this point.
She had been influenced, unknowingly, throughout one reincarnation after another!
Perhaps in one reincarnation, or many reincarnations, those unknown existences had already intervened—no, they must have already intervened.
But what were they plotting?
The previous Mu Bingyao could not figure it out; her thinking seemed to have been obscured by some kind of power, but at this moment, she understood instantly.
Combining the intelligence Han Yu had previously obtained, she knew that those unknown existences were plotting the power of divine miracles within her!
Every time they killed her, the deities of the Worshiping Temple could obtain more power of divine miracles, and every time she reincarnated, she became stronger, carrying more power of divine miracles with her.
Mu Bingyao had always thought that she could become stronger each time because of the experience accumulated through repeated reincarnations, but now it seemed that the influence of those unknown existences must also be involved; they were helping her!
But not out of kindness; rather, they wanted to raise her, this crop of leeks, well before harvesting!
Thinking of this, Mu Bingyao felt an irrepressible anger in her heart; she had not expected that just when she thought she had jumped out of the cage, she had discovered an even larger trap.
But after talking for so long, Mu Bingyao still did not understand how Han Yu had become such a major variable in this reincarnation.
Could it be that there were unknown existences intervening behind him as well?
Was he also a chess piece?
