294: Chapter 293 Hidden Killer Move
[Tang Zheng: Chu Xuan, I have some bad news for you. Revelation might possess a hidden True Authority; some information related to his past existence is rapidly disappearing from my mind.]
[He must have sensed that I have noticed his existence, felt the malice in my subconscious, and the potential crisis he faces, so he has started to actively erase all traces and weaknesses of his past existence.]
[But this also makes me more certain that Revelation is still alive. Originally, I was only eighty percent sure that he was the one harming you, but now I am one hundred percent certain.]
Chu Xuan's heart skipped a beat.
"In the future, Azure Dragon hid in the shadows and nearly destroyed this world. Now, although I have killed Azure Dragon, there is an additional Revelation..."
"Every choice I make causes different changes to the future..."
Chu Xuan did not know the extent of Revelation's actual strength or whether he had already achieved a Breakthrough to the next stage, but the mere fact that he could command an S-rank Specter was undoubtedly a terrifying matter.
While deep in thought, a sudden realization struck Chu Xuan, and he immediately asked: [On the previous timeline, you said that Azure Dragon plotted to sacrifice our world to the Evil God and nearly succeeded. If Azure Dragon is dead, could this candidate become Revelation?]
[Tang Zheng: The world will has awakened early, and many things have already changed. Although we are still in danger and can only be considered to be struggling to survive, it will not be as easily sacrificed as before.]
[However, just in case, from now on, I will set aside everything else and wholeheartedly search for traces of Revelation's existence.]
Chu Xuan nodded slightly.
At least he had gained one piece of not-too-bad news.
However, Chu Xuan immediately thought of another question: [Do you think Revelation could be Yang Yu? Similar to the identity relationship between Azure Dragon and Ming Xiucheng, is it possible that in the original timeline, Yang Yu killed Revelation as a self-directed act?]
[Tang Zheng: No! Because Yang Yu was always the top Transcendent in the early stages. Before the world underwent its great change, he was the only one who received world certification, could stand against an S-rank Specter, and could resolve large-scale Domains.]
[Azure Dragon was wary of Yang Yu's existence, which is why he didn't dare to act too recklessly in Haicheng. Instead, he took a roundabout way, using Xinyue Fox to manipulate the Xu family and Tao Jiajia to suppress the Night Watchers.]
[So, as the strongest combat force in the early stages, who could he possibly be wary of? If even he were a World Traitor, the Resurrection Society would have no need to hide behind the scenes; they would have already stepped into the light.]
Chu Xuan: [The strongest combat force in the early stages? Then what happened later?]
[Tang Zheng: Yang Yu is about to die, and it is precisely because of his death that the official organization known as the Night Watchers fell apart! Nuclear weapons destroyed the world, leaving living creatures in misery. The Resurrection Society stepped from behind the scenes to the front, claiming they could save the world. Those were days of utter darkness and despair. Of the nearly ten billion people globally, less than ten percent survived in the end.]
Chu Xuan's heart skipped a beat: [Is the less than ten percent you mentioned the future world after the changes?]
[Tang Zheng: That is correct. It is precisely because you became a Purifier ahead of schedule that the world will awakened early, and the global System tasks also unfolded in advance. That is why the future has improved somewhat. However, three years later, as of now, the total global population is less than one percent of what it used to be. Maybe there are only a few tens of millions of people left, probably...]
Chu Xuan could not help but fall silent.
Such an improvement really did not make one feel happy.
[Tang Zheng: I have already revealed enough information about the future to you today. In this last bit of time, it is time to answer the question from your first dream.]
[First, regarding the matter of the Charm attribute being a trap. You had best wait until you reach a higher stage before revealing it; you might not be able to bear such Karma right now.]
[As for your desire to make public the ability to strip away Specters, that is your own capability, not a future event I have revealed to you, so you may decide for yourself.]
Chu Xuan continued to ask: [Then, regarding my dream when I was Transmigrating to the War Dragon World, why did I wake up early? Do you know the reason?]
This was Chu Xuan's greatest confusion.
[Tang Zheng: Because, based on my conjecture, your Precognitive Dream Talent does not act upon you yourself, but is similar to capturing information about the future and using it to deduce. However, this future is only the future of our world; the deduction can naturally only be based on the world we exist in.]
[The War Dragon World belongs to another world and is not affected by our world. You naturally cannot deduce it, so when you entered another world in the dream, you would naturally be forced to wake up.]
Is that so...
Chu Xuan's heart stirred.
He immediately thought of the System's notation regarding the Dream Return ability.
Besides only being usable once per stage, it only takes effect on the world to which it belongs.
However, immediately after, Chu Xuan frowned again. This statement from Future Tang Zheng had some issues.
"Going to another world in a dream forces a wake-up? But when I used the random teleportation scroll before, I clearly arrived in another world, so why didn't I wake up..."
Chu Xuan muttered to himself, but before he could ask, Future Tang Zheng had already sent another message.
[Tang Zheng: Additionally, at my point in time, finding Revelation might be somewhat difficult, but the past Revelation's concealment should not yet be so strong.]
[I have three suggestions for you. First, find a way to reach a higher stage as soon as possible!]
[When you step into the next stage, your life level will reach a critical transformation, and you will naturally be guided by the Purifier Legacy to the world where the Legacy was left behind.]
[Although this Legacy is incomplete, the two Legacy skills, "Forbidden Darkness" and "Eye of Insight," are still there.]
[Obtain these two key Exclusive Skills as soon as possible!]
[Among them, "Forbidden Darkness" can largely immunize against the erosion of The Gloom aura; its effect goes without saying.]
[And when the "Eye of Insight" skill reaches level 5, you can investigate the target's type through spirituality value, allowing you to distinguish the existence of Specters and World Traitors.]
[Especially with World Traitors, when you see a "World Traitor," the Eye of Insight will automatically capture the target.]
Chu Xuan frowned and immediately replied: [I already obtained these two skills when I became a Purifier, and they directly reached the max level. Perhaps it is the great power bestowed by the world.]
[Tang Zheng: How is that possible? Our world only has the Fire of Nirvana left for the Purifier Legacy; the two Legacies of Forbidden Darkness and Eye of Insight are not in this world! In the original timeline, the person who became the Purifier also only had the Fire of Nirvana skill.]
Chu Xuan could not help but frown even deeper.
[Tang Zheng: Of course, there may be other factors I am unaware of, but in any case, this is a good thing. Regarding how to track Revelation's whereabouts, I suggest you try to find items that can capture traces and lock onto a location, or related positioning skills, or perhaps deduction-type prediction abilities. Only by combining these with the Eye of Insight is it more likely to find Revelation.]
Deduction and prediction...
Chu Xuan pondered in his heart.
[Tang Zheng: That is all. I have revealed enough information to you. I am about to be unable to hold on; another Lightning Tribulation is descending.]
[Next, you do as I say first. When you enter a dream again tomorrow, I will tell you the ending of the future. Although this Revelation is more secretive than Azure Dragon, you are no longer what you once were, otherwise it would not have hidden itself.]
Unknowingly, it was nearly eight o'clock. Chu Xuan was already prepared to spend spirituality value to extend the duration, but just at this moment, he inexplicably felt a strong palpitation.
"What is going on?!" Chu Xuan felt his scalp tingling.
At the same time, Chu Xuan noticed that Future Tang Zheng had sent another sentence:
[No! Revelation still has a backup plan. You are about to die in the nuclear explosion. Hurry and think of a way to solve this problem!]
Just as these words entered his eyes, Chu Xuan suddenly had a premonition. When he looked up, he saw a stream of light falling vertically at the entrance of the bank.
In an instant, the heavens and earth roared!
Scorching light shone, swallowing everything. Chu Xuan felt a burning pain sweep across his entire body. He only held on for a few seconds before his consciousness faded.
[You have received fatal damage.]
[Your health points have been cleared.]
[You are dead.]
