Chapter 401 The truth
"I'm not Zhou Tian."
Yu Wenxuan spoke concisely and to the point, and at the same time glanced at Gu Pingsheng.
"You have become a little strange since you disappeared and came back. I just want to remind you..."
Yu Wenxuan withdrew his gaze and stared at Bai Yanliang: "Instead of falling into an illusory sense of self-awareness, it is better to do something real."
"Also, you have received too much information, and your energy will be wasted on distinguishing truth from lies. If you ask me, it is better to treat them all as lies. There is only one thing we need to grasp - The fog set is coming to an end.”
"No matter other people or organizations, no matter what conspiracies and calculations they have, they can't shake the fact that the last key to Fengquan Command Prison will be condensed in our hands."
Yu Wenxuan turned around, and the final reminder came:
"Don't analyze people and things whose authenticity is difficult to tell, let them analyze you."
"Don't follow in their footsteps, go in a new direction and let them follow you..."
Bai Yanliang's face was expressionless. He stood on the bank of the river and looked at Yu Wenxuan's retreating figure.
Everyone is like this and understands the truth, but when it comes to real matters, it is inevitable that the authorities will be confused.
"Yu Wenxuan!"
Bai Yanliang shouted.
This voice also reached the footpath not far away. Song Que and others who were confronting Gu Pingsheng turned their heads and their eyes fell on Bai Yanliang.
Yu Wenxuan stopped and heard Bai Yanliang ask:
"Am I the only one who can enter that world?"
Yu Wenxuan did not look back, but the voice came slowly:
"Don't you already know the answer?"
Bai Yanliang was silent, watching Yu Wenxuan go away.
Yu Wenxuan denied that he was Zhou Tian, but he and Zhou Tian must have some kind of relationship, otherwise, the huge amount of information Yu Wenxuan possesses cannot be explained.
And the last words he left really confirmed Bai Yanliang's guess.
I... am really not human.
Why is Yu Wenxuan convinced that only he can enter the "world of ghosts"?
Because he knew that the hometown of Bai Yanliang's soul... was that world.
He was just a strange soul that grew up in the body of a dead child named Bai Yanliang.
Yu Wenxuan's appeal is also very simple. He does not want to see Bai Yanliang confused, nor does he want him to be involved in the dark abyss and the "artificial settings" of the Nine Prisons.
There was always only one thing he wanted to do - enter the mist world.
Yu Wenxuan walked in the slightly cold night wind, the thoughts in his brain were extremely clear.
During the last fog gathering, Bai Yanren made a final attempt, but still failed. As for the reason, Yu Wenxuan knew it.
He knew almost everything about Wuji.
He didn't deceive Bai Yanliang, he was not Zhou Tian.
But...
He may be the only person in the world who can understand Bai Yanliang's struggle and empathize with Bai Yanliang.
However, these are not important. As he said just now, all man-made conspiracies and lies are nothing to be afraid of.
Over the years, the only people who have truly been on the right path are him and Bai Yanren.
Now, Bai Yanren is dead.
But his death was not in vain. He obtained important information and... left Bai Yanliang with a real way to survive.
Rather than just leaving subtle hints of blood to "themselves" in the next round, like in past reincarnations.
Will Bai Yanliang be selected by Wuji every time?
Of course...
Because Wuji has always been in control of his dead "brother".
Whoever has the most keys will have greater power. However, even if you can do something in the fog, it is only relative.
Wuji is indeed the boundary between life and death.
The rules of the human world and the ghost world are completely different. The two sides are involved and restrict each other. Rather than a confrontation between humans and ghosts, it is better to say that the wills of the two worlds are colliding.
The fog set is just a scale.
On the left is the human world, and on the right is the world of mist. Obtaining the key means gaining the qualification to open the "Door of the Mist Realm", and humans have gained part of the power of the Mist Realm.
Expressed on the scale, it becomes that humans can do something with the help of fog.
For example...
Leave a bloody reminder, or... designate the person to be selected next time.
The keys to the past are all in Bai Yanren's hands. After all, he is the only one who has the memory of all reincarnations.
But... Zhou Tian also has memories.
The person who discovered the fog world was Zhou Tian, and the person who unleashed this monstrous disaster was also Zhou Tian.
Zhou Tian knows everything about the Mist Realm, so... Yu Wenxuan also knows.
[Ship sailing under the moon, people perish in the water] is an insurance set up by the dead Bai Yanren, and it is also the last thing he can do in the fog with the key he owns.
Maybe he told Bai Yanliang the truth?
Maybe he didn't say anything and just wanted to see where things were going ten years later?
Who knows...
For Yu Wenxuan, none of this matters.
Time is running out.
Fog collection is a scale.
After the selected human clears the hell realm of the current reincarnation, he can obtain the key and manipulate the fog set to favor the human side.
This is the advantage of the human world.
However, the advantages of the Mist Realm are not gained gradually like humans.
In the nine reincarnations of hell, if all humans escape, the final game can be triggered.
Enter the mist, and... escape the mist.
However, it can't be done.
Bai Yanren, who has the memory of previous reincarnations, has already tried to enter the fog world. He did open the door, but it only opened up a subspace in the real world and could not reach the fog world at all.
Moreover, even those subspaces opened by keys were full of repulsion towards people from his real world, and he simply could not stay there.
This is a lie...
What a big lie!
Even if he successfully escapes all nine reincarnations of hell, he still gets all nine keys.
But humans...can't enter the mist world at all!
This life-and-death game between the human world and the fog world was doomed to failure from the beginning.
Human beings cannot survive in the fog world, so how can they go to the fog world to complete their last escape?
Who told this lie?
Or...
Who signed this contract with a certain being in the fog world, so that Wuji would wake up and humans would have to fight to the death with the evil ghosts?
It's Zhou Tian.
Others don't know, including Bai Yanren.
But Yu Wenxuan's memory told him that that person was Zhou Tian.
Although even Yu Wenxuan didn't know what Zhou Tian did, Wu Ji's awakening and the start of the Blood Letter missions were indeed caused by Zhou Tian.
Perhaps Zhou Tian, who signed the contract with Mist Realm, didn't know that he had been deceived.
Maybe he knew...but he had to tell this big lie to extend the nine reincarnations of hell as much as possible in order to survive.
Yu Wenxuan doesn't care what the truth is.
He raised his head and looked at the full moon hanging above his head.
He knew that in the end, whether the mist world swallowed the world or humans successfully escaped.
Everything will reincarnate again.
Because humans are slaves to emotions.
The strange forces floating in the mist world like to cling to those negative emotions the most.
People are immortal, and ghosts are also immortal.
They can't stop anything at all.
Maybe the only thing you can do is to let yourself live well.
