Chapter 1441

Where all memories sprout

Cheng Shi never thought he would return to that garbage dump of memory.

That's right, the "depths of memory" the blind girl mentioned was exactly the crystal world that refracted infinite memory light after entering from the Dream Nightmare.

And "where all memories sprout," Cheng Shi had also been there; it was exactly that huge canyon crack that ran through the crystal world!

At this time, apart from An Mingyu who led the way, those who came with Cheng Shi were Zhen Xin who didn't want her best friend to suffer any more accidents, Li Jingming who held the true Dream Nightmare and was in charge of 【Memory】, and Qin Xin who was heavy-hearted and failed to see the Fire of Hope off.

The five people walked all the way and arrived before the rift.

Cheng Shi didn't forget that it was from here that he crossed the rift to the other side behind the Dreamless Mirror, was picked up by the Fire of Hope, and met Him for the first time.

At that time, he walked through this abyss cautiously and probably never thought that there was a road under this abyss.

An Mingyu pointed under the rift and said:

"It's right below; let's go down."

Cheng Shi tilted his head and glanced at the Long Wang, but saw that the other party seemed to be swimming in the "garbage" of these memories with his eyes closed; after a while, the Long Wang opened his eyes and looked at Qin Xin with astonishment, making Qin Xin feel a bit confused.

"What?"

Li Jingming shook his head, his expression strange:

"No danger, but I really didn't expect it to be him."

"Forget it... let's go; we'll know when we go down and see."

Seeing that the answer was in front of them, the others didn't ask much; An Mingyu led the way and jumped down directly; Zhen Xin and Qin Xin followed closely; Cheng Shi paused slightly, looked at the Long Wang again and said:

"What did you want to say just now?"

Li Jingming sighed:

"I found that regarding the past, 【Memory】 is not all-knowing."

"The painted collection in the collection hall is the best proof; that is where the past that 【Memory】 is most interested in hangs, but here, the memory under our feet is not entirely uninteresting."

"For example, do you still remember the origin of the Dream Nightmare?"

The origin of the Dream Nightmare?

Cheng Shi pondered for a moment and nodded.

Of course he remembered; come to think of it, this matter had something to do with Aflos.

The "guidance" of the 【Gate of Joy】 made the followers of 【Memory】 turn against each other; at the moment 【Memory】 bestowed 【Memory Delusion】, the mirror shattered into two halves; one half became the Dream Nightmare, and the other half became the Dreamless Mirror.

Come to think of it, the Dreamless Mirror was on Qin Xin, and Qin Xin was in this team.

What a coincidence.

Cheng Shi was thinking, when he was suddenly stunned, seeming to understand the Long Wang's meaning, "You mean... Memory Delusion?"

A flash of light flashed in Li Jingming's eyes, and he nodded:

"Not bad, it is Memory Delusion."

"Strange to say, 【Memory】 seemed to have created a creation that even He often forgot, so much so that after I inherited His authority, I didn't think of this thing at the first time."

"Until today when I came here, I found that past in the infinite memory 'garbage'; interestingly, the memory of creating Memory Delusion was actually thrown here by Him."

"No, it should be said that Memory Delusion is the 'soul' of this garbage dump; His original intention for creating Memory Delusion was to force Himself to forget these trifles and only focus on the collection He was interested in."

"【Memory】 built the collection hall, selected collections in the long river of time, for the sake of pleasing 【Origin】, so these memories thrown into the Memory Delusion garbage dump were naturally the garbage He thought were unworthy of pleasing 【Origin】."

"Since they were unworthy, naturally He didn't want 【Origin】 to 'see' them."

"So the Fire of Hope chose this place as the place of farewell, the deep meaning in it..."

"Let's go down; I guess the future of the world might be in this canyon rift."

Not being seen...

Cheng Shi seemed to have grasped some key, but couldn't hold onto that flash of inspiration; he nodded and jumped down with the Long Wang.

Three gods were present; even if this canyon was deep, it was impossible for Cheng Shi to have any accidents; one person and one god landed lightly and walked toward the depths of the canyon along the footprints of the three people in front.

Not long after, they arrived before that depression and saw a shocking scene.

Only to see the burly Qin Xin holding a thin figure in his arms, slowly turning around; the person's face gradually became clear under the deep blue brilliance reflecting around; when that face was completely seen by people...

"Qin Xin!?"

Cheng Shi's pupils shrank, and the Long Wang nodded silently.

"I had seen him in the trial long ago, but he never showed his true face; you should have heard of him:"

"Still like a dream."

"What a 'still like a dream'."

"It turns out that the Fire-Passer who walked quietly in the shadow of the world was actually a big dream of yours!"

"He should be the real Qin Xin!"

Cheng Shi stared blankly at the front, looking at Qin Xin, but saw Qin Xin looking at the Qin Xin in his arms with excitement; the Qin Xin in his arms slowly opened his eyes; he was very weak, even could be said to be gasping for breath, but his eyes radiated the most brilliant and firm light.

He looked at the burly Qin Xin and grinned with bloodless lips:

"I felt your strength, Qin Xin; tell me, is this a good dream or my unwilling fantasy?"

Qin Xin smiled; he really wanted to tell Qin Xin that this could be considered a good dream, as for whether the good dream would turn into a nightmare again...

He was silent for a moment and looked up at Cheng Shi.

Cheng Shi didn't respond, just casually threw the purest healing spell on the body of the one who was still like a dream, without joy or sorrow:

"Of course it's a good dream."

"The sparks you ignited with your own hands have now illuminated this starry sky; the Fire-Passer is very good, the world... might not be very good, but we are working hard."

"We were able to find you because of the 'Final Edict' of the Fire of Hope."

"He guided us here; when you woke up, did you see Him?"

The thin Qin Xin was much more energetic after being treated; he patted the burly Qin Xin's shoulder, let him put himself down, and then stood before the crystal coffin, looking at the place where the Fire of Hope had burned, falling into memories.

"No."

"But no matter where He is, I know He is in my heart; no, it's in our hearts, in the hearts of all Fire-Passers."

"I know you are curious about my existence; actually, I also thought I was already dead, but in that trial with no vitality, it was 【Fate】 who saved me."

"【Fate】!?"

The thin Qin Xin nodded:

"Not bad; He made a deal with my Benefactor."

"He let 【Memory】 erase a memory for Him, and the chip was my fate, so I saved my life."

"My life is not important, but this memory might be useful to you all."

Saying this, the thin Qin Xin patted the coffin and said, "This is the memory that 【Fate】 was deprived of."

Li Jingming's face became solemn; he looked at Cheng Shi, and after seeing Cheng Shi nod, he activated the power of 【Memory】 to reproduce 【Fate】's memory.

That was a scene where He confronted 【Deception】 in the void; He asked Deception: "Who am I?"

【Deception】 dealt with it casually; 【Fate】 continued to ask: "Then who are you?"

【Deception】 responded with a smile again; 【Fate】 finally said: "I don't know who you are, but I just want to be me."

After the riddle-like exchange, 【Fate】 left first; He descended into another void, His gaze pierced through reality and illusion, looked at Cheng Shi on the roof, and then shifted His gaze, muttering to the pitch-black void:

"I don't know who I am, but you just want me to be me, so..."

"I am me!"

"..."

Seeing this, Cheng Shi was moved again.

It turned out that 【Fate】 had already discovered the clues at that time, but for the sake of 【Deception】, He chose to deceive Himself and let 【Memory】 erase this memory.

So who was pushing the Determined, was it really 【Fate】?

But it was clearly 【Deception】 who guided the world to this point...

If all departures were approaches, then wasn't resistance also a kind of Determined?
