After hearing Xuan Zhenzi's account, Xiao Buli's mind churned with a mixture of emotions. Xuan Zhenzi had been a legend, a myth in his eyes, his only hope for escaping his Heart Demon. Yet, unexpectedly, even that legend struggled to live until today, and the process of escaping the Heart Demon took a full thirty years. Was he to face the sa fate? Were his friends, those he had invited into the ga, also walking down a path of no return?
"Is there really no other way?" Xiao Buli pondered to himself, murmuring the question aloud.
"What did you say?" Xuan Zhenzi asked.
"Is there really no other way to escape the Heart Demon? Must I spend thirty years like you did?" Xiao Buli's voice was fraught with emotion. "But, but…" he found it hard to voice the trials he had been through. Should he share his past with Xuan Zhenzi?
"But what about your brothers?" Xuan Zhenzi seed as if he could read minds as he asked.
"How do you know? How could you possibly know that?"
"Although it took thirty years, don't forget that during those years, I was split into many selves, and each one had its own will, while their experiences also beca my mories. I think you must still rember Qin Shimoon, right?" With those words, Xuan Zhenzi imdiately put Xiao Buli on high alert—how could he forget Qin Shimoon? If it hadn't been for her, he wouldn't have ended up trapped alone in this underground base.
"You know Qin Shimoon?"
"To be precise, it's Qin Shimoon who knows of my images. I once entered her dreams to have her do sothing for ," Xuan Zhenzi said, his gaze piercing, as if waiting for Xiao Buli to co to so realization.
But at that mont, Xiao Buli was utterly confused, as he didn't know what Xuan Zhenzi's revelations had to do with him. When and what did he ask Qin Shimoon to do? And if what Xuan Zhenzi said wasn't related to him, why ntion it? If it was related, then the only significant interaction he'd had with Qin Shimoon was the few days he had kidnapped her. mories of Qin Shimoon's peculiar behavior at that ti flashed through his mind, along with the thought of the mysteriously broken Soul Contract—suddenly, answers to questions that had long puzzled him seed within reach.
"When did you send Qin Shimoon, and what did you have her do?" Having pieced things together, Xiao Buli enunciated each word clearly as he questioned Xuan Zhenzi. He was certain in his heart, but he still hoped for one last confirmation.
"Ha ha ha, haven't you figured it all out already?" Xuan Zhenzi appeared to possess so kind of clairvoyant Spell, "That's right, it was I who freed Qin Shimoon from the Soul Contract, and it was also I who had her trap you in that underground base. However…" Xuan Zhenzi paused for effect, as if to soothe Xiao Buli, wary that he might explode in anger. "However, I had my reasons for doing so. I can tell you how to cure this damned Soul Departure Syndro. According to the information I've gathered over the years, curing Soul Departure Syndro doesn't have to be as troubleso as my previous thod. You can not only cure Soul Departure Syndro but can also unravel all mysteries."
"How?" Despite trying to remain calm, Xiao Buli couldn't help but feel infuriated learning that Xuan Zhenzi had trapped him in the base.
"On the other side of the Barbaric Wastelands lies a sea, within which is a Pure Land. There live the Ancient Gods who survived the ancient war. Few in number, they guard the last vestiges of Ancient God civilization. Among the territories they protect is the Graveyard of the Forgotten Gods. If you find that place, you can naturally cure your Soul Departure Syndro and even uncover everything you've wanted to know."
"You know what I want to find out? You know how to get the answers, which ans you already know?" Xiao Buli didn't show much enthusiasm upon hearing these revelations. Deep down, he harbored a resistance against Xuan Zhenzi.
"That's right, I know," Xuan Zhenzi replied with an ease that suggested he had no intent to hide anything. "However, you also know I won't tell you." Since he had given Xiao Buli a direction, he naturally did not plan to disclose everything right away. Xiao Buli understood this, but what he couldn't fathom was why Xuan Zhenzi was playing this ga with him. If Xuan Zhenzi wanted to harm him, it wouldn't take long with his current power. And if Xuan Zhenzi wanted to help solve his problems, wouldn't it be faster just to tell him? Was it possible that there was sothing Xiao Buli had to discover for himself at that location? Perhaps there were Divine Artifacts or such that could cure Soul Departure Syndro, but if so, why didn't Xuan Zhenzi just say so? Why the mystery? Seeing Xuan Zhenzi's determined deanor, Xiao Buli knew that no matter how he probed, he would not receive any more answers. After pondering, he asked, "Then can you tell why you trapped inside the base?"
"There are two reasons. First, only within the base could you enter the ga in this particular way, which aligns with the initial setup of the ga, making it easier to operate. If you wish to break through the Barbarian Wilderness, this is key, and this form is the easiest way to obtain abilities within the ga. Why you need to obtain these ga abilities, you will co to know in ti. The second reason is currently unfolding, but now is not the ti to disclose that to you. I believe in about one or two months, you will understand. At that ti, you might even thank . Any more questions?"
