127: An ancient reincarnation? An endless sea of ​​stars!

“Actually...”

Yue Nanli turned her head. Under the starry sky, her slender body stood tall like a crane, her eyes looking toward the incomparably brilliant gate of stars in the Void Realm.

Her tone was as calm as an ancient well without ripples as she said, “Everything you saw and felt before was a Hallucination I set up.”

“A Hallucination?”

Ye Qingxian was stunned: “So, everything I experienced before was fake?”

“That is indeed the case.”

Sensing the disappointment in her disciple's tone, a hint of guilt flashed through Yue Nanli's heart, but she stiffened her expression and admitted it.

“Your state was very wrong at the time, and you completely ignored my advice. To prevent you from getting completely lost, Revered Master had no choice but to resort to this drastic measure.”

To prevent Ye Qingxian's impression of Gu Qingchen from worsening further, Yue Nanli was giving it her all.

After taking all the responsibility onto herself, she didn't forget to ask, “Xiao Xianer, you won't blame Revered Master, right?”

“Of course not.”

Although Ye Qingxian was somewhat disappointed, she still spoke to console her, “Thinking back, my state was indeed very wrong at the time, especially combined with the Memory Fragments in my mind.

I believe if Revered Master hadn't stopped me in time, after absorbing more Memory Fragments, they might have affected my Divine Soul.”

“That's not even the most serious part.”

Yue Nanli said, “What I am worried about now is that if there are too many Memory Fragments in your mind, they might even condense and form a new Consciousness.

Whether it replaces you or two Consciousnesses coexist within your body, neither would be a good thing.”

“Something like that can happen?”

Hearing this, Ye Qingxian felt a lingering fear in her heart.

“Mhm.”

Yue Nanli said solemnly, “I now feel that this so-called Myriad Stars Grand Offering and War of Divine Revelation seem like a scheme set up by a Supreme Lord.

And Xiao Xianer, you...”

Stopping there, she paused, seemingly hesitant about whether to continue speaking.

“What about me, Revered Master?”

“Alas.”

Yue Nanli sighed and said, “Xiao Xianer, you seem very much like a participant in this Game of Chess. You are either a chess piece—a vessel prepared by the Ancient Lord for their revival and return.

Or you are the Player—the Reincarnation of this Ancient Lord.”

Hearing this, Ye Qingxian lowered her head and remained silent for a moment.

Just as Yue Nanli feared her State of Mind would be damaged and was about to offer comfort, she saw Ye Qingxian raise her head.

“I am me. I will not be anyone else.”

Ye Qingxian's eyes were incredibly bright, seemingly more dazzling than the stars: “And if I am a chess piece, then I will flip over this Chessboard!”

“Very good!”

Seeing that Ye Qingxian's Heart-Nature seemed even more resolute, Yue Nanli felt relieved.

But the next moment, Ye Qingxian pouted: “But suddenly knocking me back from Great Perfection of Dao Refining to Grand Perfection of the Profound Grotto Realm, when will I ever catch up to Gu Qingchen...”

“...”

Hearing these words from her disciple, Yue Nanli was immediately speechless.

So in your heart, good disciple, Gu Qingchen is the high mountain that will forever be difficult to cross?

You have the confidence to flip the Chessboard against the scheme of the Ancient Supreme Lord, yet now you are troubled by not being able to catch up to Gu Qingchen?

“Ahem, is it possible that there isn't actually any Deep Hatred between you and Gu Qingchen?”

At this point, Yue Nanli thought for a moment before speaking, “After all, the Marriage Contract between you wasn't set by him, nor was the request to break the engagement his idea. Perhaps he doesn't even take this matter to heart.”

“That's exactly why he's even more infuriating!”

After hearing Yue Nanli's words, Ye Qingxian became even angrier.

“That's why I need to prove myself. I want to surpass him and make him look at me!

I want to tear up our Marriage Contract with an equal, or even superior, stance.”

“Actually, you don't necessarily have to tear up the Marriage Contract.”

Yue Nanli said seemingly carelessly, “When you can stand shoulder to shoulder with him, becoming Dao Companions wouldn't be bad either...”

“Huh?”

Hearing this, Ye Qingxian frowned.

She felt that her Revered Master seemed to have changed somehow.

“Ahem, ahem.”

Locked onto by her disciple's gaze, Yue Nanli realized her attitude had changed a little too quickly.

She quickly said, “What I mean is, the Great Dao is lonely after all, and having a Dao Companion to walk alongside is also a blessing.

Hundreds of billions of years later, The Sea Turns Into Mulberry Fields; people, events, and things of the past all turn into fleeting illusions, and even the world becomes completely unfamiliar, but as long as the person standing beside you remains unchanged, the heart will find peace.”

Hearing this sentence, Ye Qingxian felt a moment of trance, feeling as if she had heard it somewhere before.

Suddenly, a Memory Fragment flashed by.

In the fragment, a figure completely enveloped in Starlight was looking at a back view and chuckling softly.

“Crossing the Kalpa alone, fortunate to share the tide on a lotus boat;

The Wheel of Time reverses, the Ten Directions are destroyed, and Reincarnation is chaotic. Turning back, a figure in white stands amidst the mist, faintly glimpsing the light when the Grandmist was first settled.”

“Qingxian... Qingxian?”

In a daze, Ye Qingxian woke up to see her Revered Master looking at her, a trace of worry in her eyes.

“Qingxian, what happened to you just now?”

“I...”

Ye Qingxian hesitated for a moment, ultimately deciding not to reveal the Memory Fragment she had just seen.

“Nothing. Revered Master, did you call me for something?”

“Hmm...”

Yue Nanli nodded thoughtfully: “Nothing, just reminding you that the gate of stars has been open for a while now. I hear there are countless Opportunities inside. Are you going?”

“Of course!”

Ye Qingxian replied firmly, “What I lack right now is Opportunity.”

Although Ye Qingxian seemed to have some connection to the Myriad Stars Grand Offering, she had no thought of being afraid or retreating.

Compared to retreating when faced with difficulty, she preferred to meet the challenge head-on.

As she stepped through the gate of stars and arrived in a Void Realm filled with countless Light Cocoons, she immediately sensed a place that seemed to be calling out to her.

After pondering for a moment, she rushed toward that direction... “Is this a... Star Sea?”

After several hours of breaking through the Void, Gu Qingchen and the other two seemed to have passed through a layer of Boundary Wall.

The next moment, the three of them widened their eyes.

What greeted their eyes was a vast, boundless, and endless Star Sea!

A true Star Sea!

Endless Star Power flowed within it. Gu Qingchen could even sense the aura of all the star god origins inside.

As the Star Sea surged, it seemed to be slowly rotating at a certain frequency.

Star Light of various colors formed an incomparably magnificent spectacle.

“This Star Sea is too big! It feels much larger than the Bu Tian Mountain Range outside!”

An Zhiyu was also quite surprised.

One must know that the Bu Tian Mountain Range is one-tenth the size of the Great World of Myriad Stars, enough to stack millions of Ancient Life Stars without issue.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

Just then, the Void Realm trembled.

Immediately, the figure of a young girl appeared in the distant Void Realm.

“Oh?”

A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Qingchen's eyes: “She came too?”
