Chapter 1886: Chapter 19: A Thousand Years in an Instant, Achieving the Life and Death Domain! Battle of Cause and Effect!
This person is none other than the Academy City Elder, Wisdom Heart, who is actually trapped inside the [General Knowledge Mirror]!
"Buzz!" The elder lightly tapped the mirror’s surface, causing ripples to spread.
Bo Wei didn’t turn around but allowed the elder inside to speak.
"...Bo Wei, turn back."
"The position of the Great Elder was always going to be yours, I just hope you don’t make mistake after mistake."
Bo Wei chuckled softly, "Teacher, you’re mistaken. The position of Great Elder was not something you passed on to me; I fought for it myself."
"Teacher, have you ever witnessed the splendor of the Eighth Dharma Realm?"
Wisdom Heart was momentarily stunned, then a complicated expression emerged on his face, "You can already reach the Eighth Dharma Realm..."
"See, how beautiful this knowledge is." Bo Wei pointed at the towering mountains of books ahead, "But if I do nothing, eventually they will vanish, and the entire Xuanling Star Domain will disappear."
Wisdom Heart weakly propped his hand against the mirror surface, "But your plan might destroy this knowledge even sooner!"
"Are you so confident that your scheme will succeed?"
Bo Wei turned around, still wearing a confident smile.
"Teacher, you yourself said perhaps."
"And I have just won a round on the cause and effect battlefield."
"Look, this is the best example." Bo Wei gently stroked the mirror surface, and a scene appeared before Wisdom Heart.
It showcased Zhao Xing and ’Wei Tianchen,’ traveling on a very ordinary Boundary Boat, heading towards the [Blue Butterfly Road].
The image shifted to a dim world.
Ancient Doctor Tianchen injected a flash of golden light into Zhao Xing’s body, and he immediately lost consciousness.
The next moment, Zhao Xing was lying in an ice coffin in the Academy City, surrounded by many other ice coffins. In one of them, Du Yun’s face was reflected.
"You, you..." Wisdom Heart was so shocked he couldn’t speak. "You’ve long schemed against him."
"The cause and effect battle... was it then? Did you give him a return void eviction order?"
"Yes." Bo Wei admitted openly with a nod.
"You’ve schemed against the geniuses of two superpowers, which will bring disastrous consequences to Academy City!" Wisdom Heart roared.
"Teacher, you wouldn’t understand." Bo Wei shook his head, looking at Wisdom Heart in the mirror with a gaze of pity.
....
On the Blue Butterfly Road, on an ordinary Boundary Boat, Zhao Xing and Wei Tianchen sat facing each other.
At this moment, Wei Tianchen was already in the form of a robust man clad in armor.
He had switched to another living corpse.
"Old Imperial Physician, now that we’re on the Blue Butterfly Road, can you solve the doubts in my heart?"
Wei Tianchen poured a cup of tea and pushed it over, "You don’t need to be so reserved, just ask whatever you want."
"How did you manage to successfully abduct me?" Zhao Xing asked. "Did you use the Destiny Dao?"
"Yes." Wei Tianchen looked deeply at Zhao Xing, "Tian Ningzi, you’re not simple, I had to win a cause and effect battle to find you this way."
Cause and effect battle?
Zhao Xing suddenly recalled an incident from the past.
Since the Heavenly Master from the Empire obtained the ’Ten Directions First Divination,’ which led to the massive development of the Desolate Domain, various superpowers had been using the Destiny Dao to attack the Empire.
Countless lines of cause and effect shot towards the empire’s Heavenly Master from all over the Xuanling Star Domain.
All trying to discern the specific content of the Ten Directions First Divination he had received.
This invisible war was called the "Cause and Effect War."
Whoever excelled could learn the secrets their opponent acquired.
Coral-level members of the Primordial Realm were protected by a higher layer of cause and effect defense.
I had also cultivated "Reincarnation" given by Qing Yu Zi, unexpectedly still being schemed against.
No wonder the Empire’s Heavenly Master said my destiny was unclear, my life and death uncertain.
Feelings were manipulated by that old man.
However, a cause and effect battle always requires an opponent. Who exactly was Wei Tianchen’s opponent? The Empire’s Heavenly Master? Or someone else?
Could he actually win against the Empire’s Heavenly Master?
Seeing Zhao Xing’s expression, Wei Tianchen said mildly, "I also know quite a few Fate Masters, some of whom have obtained the second divination of Ten Directions Mountain."
"They have owed me favors, and to win the cause and effect battle on you, I burned through three major favors."
"So, Tian Ningzi, what you mentioned better be true."
Zhao Xing clasped his hands together and said, "Since I promised, it won’t be false, moreover, my life and death are in your hands."
"I’m just curious when exactly did you take action."
"Not too early, not too late." Wei Tianchen took a sip from the teacup, "You might think carefully, I believe you can guess."
Zhao Xing pondered for a moment and then smiled wryly, "So it was, I was too careless."
"I didn’t expect you to give a Qi Fortune treasure to my homeland’s dynasty."
Reminded by Ancient Doctor Tianchen, Zhao Xing finally figured it out.
During the Great Zhou’s exploration era, they obtained a Qi Fortune treasure, which Ji Che said was a treasure from the Five Emperors Period.
As a result, the Great Zhou was even able to condense a ’Qi Fortune plus three ranks’ or ’breakthrough to the next realm’ Qi Fortune Golden Pill.
The first pill was consumed by Liu Tianning, and Zhao Xing unintentionally avoided the old Imperial Physician’s scheme.
The second was taken when entering the Spirit Void Realm during the battle with Lord Tian Gui.
Thus, a medium was created for the cause and effect transmission between the old Imperial Physician and himself.
The best medium for cause and effect transmission is Qi Fortune items!
In the unseen, it could even influence one’s experiences, guiding oneself into the major direction set by Fate Masters.
"Within the Empire, the old Imperial Physician certainly wouldn’t dare make a move."
"Carrying the Qi Fortune Golden Pill into the Spirit Void Realm, I immediately encountered the spirit turtle going through tribulation, and it happened to be the son of Lord Tian Gui..."
Having understood the crux, Zhao Xing couldn’t help but raise his teacup, "To destiny."
The old Imperial Physician’s mouth curled into a smile, and he too raised his teacup, "To destiny."
After a sip, Wei Tianchen said, "Tian Ningzi, you’re an interesting person."
"If I wasn’t forced, I truly wouldn’t want to use this method to meet you."
"Over the long years, few have been able to pique my interest."
"Can you tell me your real title?"
"Don’t mention Emperor Tianning anymore; the first to consume the Qi Fortune Golden Pill was Liu Tianning."
"Hahaha." Zhao Xing couldn’t help but laugh heartily. Having impersonated the name for many years, now finally someone pointed it out, making him laugh.
"Old Imperial Physician, if this matter is resolved, it’s not too late to discuss friendship after we clear our cause and effect."
"Oh?" Wei Tianchen paused, teacup in hand. "What do you mean?"
Zhao Xing said meaningfully, "I have a hunch that you haven’t truly won the ’Cause and Effect War."
Just as Wei Tianchen was about to continue, the Boundary Boat suddenly decelerated.
Progressing on the Blue Butterfly Ancient Road was achieved through time travel.
In less than three months, their Boundary Boat reached the coordinates Zhao Xing entered and arrived at their target star region.
Wei Tianchen and Zhao Xing simultaneously put down their teacups, looking at the gradually translucent cabin as a blue nebula appeared ahead.
The nebula was bright and beautiful, like a blooming blue jacaranda.
