YM778.TV Chapter 108: Thrown back to the Southern Regions
Something felt off.
According to Bai Moyu, the Nine Mystic Realm had been in a constant state of war.
He could understand the concept of poison cultivation in such a scenario.
But Jiang Yifeng still couldn\'t wrap his head around it.
He remembered from previous simulations that whenever his father or the Lady in Red broke through to the Immortal Realm, it brought about a cataclysmic disaster for the Southern Regions.
It didn\'t matter if the one taking action was a powerful figure from the Nine Mystic Realm or the Immortal Realm.
It all seemed very unreasonable.
After all, could it be that anyone who broke through to the Immortal Realm was destined to become a Poison King?According to Bai Moyu, the war in the Nine Mystic Realm had been ongoing for millions of years. Could a single Immortal Realm expert really change the entire landscape of the Nine Mystic Realm?
Clearly, that was impossible!
Jiang Yifeng furrowed his brows, contemplating, "Could Bai Moyu be deliberately deceiving me?"
But that didn\'t seem right either!
The simulation had shown that Bai Moyu\'s strength was transcendent, even the Eye of Insight couldn\'t see through him.
What benefit would such a powerful figure gain from deceiving him?
Or perhaps Bai Moyu\'s conjecture was simply incorrect?
Maybe Bai Moyu himself didn\'t know the real reason?
"I just can\'t figure it out," Jiang Yifeng muttered to himself, shaking his head.
However, he decided that Bai Moyu\'s words couldn\'t be fully trusted.
Many things might still need to be verified personally within the simulation.
Nevertheless, Jiang Yifeng believed that the credibility of those three maps was still quite high.
After all, they corresponded with the locations of the cracks in the sealing formation of the Southern Regions.
In the end, he stopped thinking about it and looked at the simulator.
[You heard Bai Moyu\'s words and felt a bit suspicious, sensing that there might be some issues with what he said.]
[You were very puzzled.]
[But you couldn\'t directly ask about it.]
[You couldn\'t just say, "Why can\'t anyone in the Southern Regions break through to the Immortal Realm? Does breaking through to the Immortal Realm make you a Poison King?" Such words!]
[After all, these events hadn\'t happened yet; you only knew about them from previous simulations.]
[You felt that doing so might expose your knowledge of the future.]
[Clearly, that wouldn\'t be good for you!]
[So, you pretended to understand and didn\'t refute his words.]
[However, at this moment, you already felt a bit of distrust towards Bai Moyu.]
[Afterwards, Bai Moyu explained why breaking through to the Tribulation Crossing stage here would bring about a tribulation, but not in the Southern Regions.]
[He said it was because this place had been separated from the continent during the early stages of the Nine Mystic Realm\'s great war.]
[So it still retained the original heavenly rules of the Nine Mystic Realm.]
[The Southern Regions, however, had remained connected to the main continent, and because of the ongoing war outside, the heavenly rules had long since changed, hence there were no tribulations for the Tribulation Crossing stage there.]
[After hearing this, you were unsure of its truth, as the seed of distrust towards Bai Moyu had already been planted in your heart.]
[However, you still outwardly expressed your gratitude for Bai Moyu\'s explanations.]
[Half a day later, Bai Moyu looked at you and said it was time for you to return to the Southern Regions.]
[This startled you.]
[Before you could speak, Bai Moyu said that he had to store his memories underground here, and since you knew so much, you couldn\'t stay.]
[You were just about to say that you could give up those memories!]
[But Bai Moyu didn\'t give you a chance to argue; with a wave of his hand, he restrained you.]
[Then, you saw him separate himself, leaving most of his cultivation and memories in the underground bronze gate.]
[After finishing everything, he took you and sped southward.]
[At this moment, you couldn\'t move, but you were cursing inwardly.]
[You had finally left the Southern Regions, only to be sent back again.]
[You really didn\'t want those memories; you just wanted to live by hiding and growing stronger, why was it so difficult!]
[A day later, Bai Moyu brought you to a sea area, and not far ahead, you could see a light shield with a crack in it.]
[You knew this was the place connecting the Southern Regions to the Endless Sea, and that light shield was the sealing formation.]
[Upon arriving, Bai Moyu tapped the sealing formation several times.]
[After finishing, he kindly handed you a storage ring, telling you to use the resources inside to bribe the Mystic Turtle.]
[Then, he released your restraints and threw you into the crack in the sealing formation.]
[In an instant, you entered the Southern Regions.]
[Return to the Southern Regions? No, you were a thousand times unwilling.]
[After all, you knew it was really hard to live by hiding in the Southern Regions for long.]
[So, as soon as you entered the Southern Regions, you headed back towards the crack in the formation, intending to return to the "Eastern Regions" through it!]
[But just as you approached the crack, Bai Moyu\'s voice came from outside.]
[He shouted, telling you that he could only hold off the formation spirit for a moment, urging you to leave quickly.]
[Hearing this, you temporarily gave up your recent idea.]
[However, you were now even more puzzled.]
[Was Bai Moyu deceiving you? Or was he telling the truth?]
[Although you remembered the Mystic Turtle saying before that the formation spirit didn\'t allow people from the Southern Regions to leave through here.]
[But since you had just come in through here, you thought the Mystic Turtle might have been lying to you.]
[After all, if this sealing formation was set up by the predecessors of the Celestial Verdant Sect to protect the people of the Southern Regions, it shouldn\'t prevent them from entering and leaving.]
[But now that Bai Moyu said the same thing, you had no choice but to believe it.]
[Still, you felt something was off.]
[Bai Moyu\'s words gave you a strong sense of dissonance.]
[Could it be that Bai Moyu was very foolish? Mixing up his previous statements with his current actions?]
[Otherwise, how could it be like this?]
[After all, his words and actions were contradictory!]
[Moreover, his current act of throwing you back into the Southern Regions.]
[This was clearly throwing you into the fire.]
[Wasn\'t he afraid that you would resent him and doubt everything he had told you before?]
[Well, it seemed he didn\'t need to be afraid, as he was much stronger than you.]
[But once you started doubting, what was the point of everything he had told you before?]
[Could it be that he had also stored his memories about this in the underground chamber?]
[But you still felt it was wrong; he remembered to send you back to the Southern Regions, so those memories shouldn\'t be sealed temporarily.]
[As you were puzzling over this.]
[Bai Moyu had already returned to the Celestial Verdant Sect, back to the underground bronze gate.]
[Just as he arrived, a female voice questioned him, "Why did you lie to him!"]
[If you were there, you would have seen that the one questioning him was Bai Ruoxue.]
[Bai Moyu looked at Bai Ruoxue, who was immobilized, and smiled, "My dear daughter, when did I ever lie to him?"]
