Capítulo 1016: Chapter 570: Heavenly Fate, Another Path_5
He did not wait for Chu Zheng to question him but took the initiative to step forward, coming directly in front of Chu Zheng.
“Now, can you give an explanation?”
Chu Zheng frowned slightly, speaking in a deep voice. He knew that all this before him was inextricably linked to the manipulation of this little Taoist behind the scenes.
The little Taoist looked at the almost explosive anger in Chu Zheng’s eyes, shook his head slightly, and his expression returned to that detached indifference:
“What I said to you before was not false, but there was a slight deviation.”
He paused, eting Chu Zheng’s cold gaze, and said slowly:
“You were not following the ancient history before; it is precisely because of those deliberate arrangents you made that today’s events unfolded.”
Chu Zheng instantly understood the earth-shattering implication in the little Taoist’s words; a chill shot up his spine to his Heavenly Spirit, and his fingertips trembled uncontrollably:
“Are you saying… the ancient history was always like this?!”
It was not that he was acting in accordance with a predetermined ancient history, but that his actions now, every choice he made after returning to the Ancient Tis, were personally creating the ancient history he knew.
“It is precisely because of your choices back then that today’s ancient history exists.”
The little Taoist’s voice was calm as if undisturbed by waves, yet every word was like a knife: “The mory that you awakened first at the peak of the River of Space-Ti is the turbulence beyond the ancient history because you actively disrupted ti and space, thus your Divine Sense was buried in the Ancient Tis. However, your body did not imdiately die; the Incomplete mory took charge, leading to the unintended consequences that resulted in the situation of killing your wife.”
“You have been deceiving all along.”
Chu Zheng clenched his palm tightly, his knuckles turning white from exertion. He took a deep breath, using all his strength to barely suppress the fury that threatened to tear his chest apart.
“I did not deceive you.”
The little Taoist shook his head again, his tone still indifferent: “It was just that so things were not spoken openly; the ancient history is sothing you changed with your own hands.”
He looked at Chu Zheng, his expression as calm as ever, explaining softly:
“I brought you from the previous Epoch to this era precisely to find a successor.”
“Back then, you indeed t Xue Qing, and Xue Qing also had a good impression of you, but your mind was set on making a na for yourself in history, determined to accomplish a world-shaking deed like no other before or after, thus, due to circumstances, the two of you were destined but not destined partners and did not beco Dao companions.”
“The subsequent ending, as I told you in the Heaven Burial Palace, is still the truth. Xue Qing died at the end of the Epoch while aiding you in seeking help, and you also fell during the hunt by the ancient ancestors, resulting in death and Dao collapse.”
“By this point, according to the original trajectory, you should not have been the Master of Heavenly Fortune.”
Upon saying this, a slight pause ca to the little Taoist’s words, and an inexplicable confusion flashed in his eyes:
“But within the ancient history, one of the greatest unexpected events occurred, which was… your reincarnated Divine Sense returning to the Ancient Tis.”
His gaze toward Chu Zheng carried an aura of scrutiny:
“Your return to the Ancient Tis is truly too incredible. I can only say that this was a deliberate arrangent by the River of Space-Ti itself, a variable I could not fully predict. Otherwise, with the intensity of your remaining Divine Sense at that ti, it would have been utterly impossible to last to the Primordial Era, as it would have been completely worn away by the sands of ti.”
“You clearly told that ancient history is unchangeable.”
Chu Zheng took a deep breath, his voice carrying a hint of hoarseness.
“True history has never been altered from the beginning to end. What I spoke of was rely events that occurred on another path.”
The little Taoist shook his head slightly, saying directly:
“I gave you the choice back then. When you first ca to the Near Immortal Realm in the Ancient Tis, I asked you which path you wanted to take.”
“The path you are on now is the one you chose yourself. I already gave you the opportunity; it was you who let go of it.”
Hearing this, Chu Zheng was montarily stunned, observing the little Taoist before him, frowning slightly:
“Are you the Good Corpse?”
A slight doubt erged in his heart, as these words didn’t seem like sothing the Good Corpse could articulate.
“The Good Corpse is , the Evil Corpse is , and the Heavenly Lord is also .”
The little Taoist shook his head slightly:
“In the Heaven Burial Palace, I was the one who communicated with you. It was also I who divined for Xue Qing, instructing both the Good and Evil Corpses to kill you.”
“I have already warned you before that choosing this path will lead to many unpleasant events for you, but you cannot reverse them because this era belongs to , not you.”
“I simply followed the ancient history and played a ga of chess; you are on the chessboard, while I am above the ga.”
The little Taoist took a deep breath, his deanor serious, and spoke solemnly:
“Now it’s your turn to make your move.”
“What is the origin of the Soul Division?”
After a mont of silence, Chu Zheng’s expression subtly shifted:
“What did you say to Lingxue?”
“Song Lingxue was the expression of feelings that Xue Qing voluntarily severed. I did not provide her with any instructions; all the choices were her own decisions.”
Looking at Chu Zheng, the little Taoist’s eyes deepened:
“Or rather… all of this is your own arrangent. She is the only living creature to achieve Dao in the future of this Epoch. With the Dao Flower blooming in a later generation, I cannot interfere; that belongs to your era.”
The little Taoist shook his head slightly, appearing a bit weary, gesturing with his hand:
“After you cut down, you can control reincarnation and reclaim the Universe’s Heavenly Fate. You will be the true Heaven, whether it’s Song Lingxue or Xue Qing, her reincarnation is at your command. Don’t think too much; just take action.”
He had waited here too long.
“Heaven is omnipotent, with the entirety of ti and space beneath one’s feet. Why do you need to find a successor?”
Chu Zheng raised his gaze, looking at the little Taoist before him, his eyes sharp as blades:
“To this day, I still don’t know your na.”
The little Taoist’s expression tensed slightly but did not answer Chu Zheng’s question, remaining silent.
“In this world, no one knows your na; you are only called Heaven.”
Chu Zheng lowered his gaze, a hint of a smile blooming on his face, murmuring softly:
“Without even leaving a na, what’s the point of being the Master of Heavenly Fortune? The tasks you ntioned might not require becoming the Master of Heavenly Fortune to accomplish… I may not be limited to a single path.”
As his words fell, Chu Zheng raised his eyes, the anger within them almost manifesting as substance. He gazed at the Three Lives Stone beside the Reincarnation Road, lifting his hand to form a blade, and brought it down sharply.
Swoosh—
Accompanying a soft noise, a piece of the Three Lives Stone was forcibly cut, landing in Chu Zheng’s grasp.
“Insight into past and present lives, clarifying the cause and effect of the future; with this, it is enough.”
The little Taoist’s expression changed for a mont.
Before he could speak, Chu Zheng had already turned around, breaking the void beneath his feet, heading directly toward the Great Universe.
