Chapter 433: Infinite Moment Illusion Art
Considering this, Jiang Yue’s Infinite Moment illusion art extrapolated the rationale of Schrodinger’s cat.
Rather than choose one option among all possible options, he could realise all possibilities for a single moment.
In that single moment, all possibilities are true and lethal to his enemy.
However, allowing opposing realities to exist at the same time was easier said than done.
Fortunately, Jiang Yue had comprehended the law of time and space in the Nine Treasures secret realm.
Using this as a foundation, he worked hard and could finally allow nine realities to exist at the same time.
For a single moment, nine versions of himself could materialise to deal with the enemy.
This not only gave him a numbers advantage against his opponent but also gave him eight extra lives.
As long as a version of himself survived, Jiang Yue would not die.
’I shouldn’t force the tenth reality.’ Jiang Yue suddenly thought.
All along, he was obsessed with increasing the number of realities he could control.
However, he forgot that quantity was not everything.
’The way I have been using the realities is not efficient.’ He thought and frowned.
So far, Jiang Yue hadn’t thought too much about how the different versions of himself attacked when he used the Infinite Moment illusion art.
Now that he thought about it, he couldn’t help but despise himself.
’Instead of using different methods to attack, isn’t it better to use variations of the same method to create a superposition?’ He wondered.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yue cleared his mind and continued to meditate.
Half a day later, he opened his eyes and stood up.
"I am ready." He said.
Soon after, an opponent appeared across from him.
The opponent was the same as before and his unseeing eyes stared straight at Jiang Yue.
’I will defeat you this time around.’ Jiang Yue thought.
At the same time, a blue mist covered his eyes and the world turned a little hazy.
"Infinite Moment illusion art, nine realities." He shouted.
Simultaneously, eight versions of himself appeared and stood beside him.
Looking at the nine people, their appearance, aura and even the pipa in their right hands were exactly the same.
However, how they dealt with the enemy was different.
Although they all used the pipa, what they played was different.
One used a mind-soothing melody, another used an illusion song, yet another used a soul-rending melody...
As Jiang Yue hoped, the effects superimposed and soon controlled the enemy.
Unfortunately, the effect only lasted for a moment and was soon broken.
However, Jiang Yue was not disappointed.
Instead, he was excited and immediately began to meditate as soon as his opponent disappeared.
’I need a way to instakill the enemy.’ He thought and then chuckled in amusement.
He and Yu Nianzhen had lived longer in the Cangxing world than on Earth.
However, he still couldn’t forget Earth and some of the things he used to like.
This time, he suddenly thought about the online games he used to play and how he spent a lot of time powering up his game characters.
’Unexpectedly, I am still grinding even in the cultivation world.’ He thought but soon focused his mind.
’My qi cultivation is not suitable for instakilling an opponent.’ He thought and frowned.
’If I can’t use my qi, I can only use my body or soul.’
’Although my body cultivation is already at the peak of the fifth level, I have never learned martial arts. It’s impossible to rely on my body to deal with powerful opponents.’
’In that case, I can only rely on my soul.’
With that, Jiang Yue calmed his excited heart and began to meditate.
In this way, six years passed before Jiang Yue slowly opened his eyes.
"It’s time." He said as he stood up.
A moment later, his opponent appeared and Jiang Yue didn’t waste time.
He immediately used his Infinite Moment illusion art and faced the enemy.
As before, the different versions of Jiang Yue used their pipa to attack.
However, one of the Jiang Yue’s condensed all his soul power into a soul sword and attacked the opponent.
Since the opponent was controlled by the other Jiang Yues, he didn’t react to the attack and his soul was instantly killed.
Seeing this, all of the Jiang Yue’s smiled before eight of them disappeared.
"Success." Jiang Yue shouted happily when his opponent disappeared.
"I will call that attack the Soul-Destroying sword." He said.
At the same time, he felt something enter his body and his cultivation began to rise uncontrollably.
Soon after, his cultivation broke through the bottleneck and entered the peak of the nascent soul realm.
"Congratulations." A voice sounded from behind him.
Hearing the voice, Jiang Yue turned around and his lips curved upwards.
"Azhen." He shouted, even more happy than when he defeated his opponent.
"Azhen." He called again and ran towards the man.
Seeing this, Yu Nianzhen also ran forward and caught the person who had recklessly thrown himself towards him.
"Did you miss me?" Jiang Yue questioned.
"I missed you very much." Yu Nianzhen wasn’t stingy with his emotions.
Over the years, he desperately missed his lover and wasn’t afraid to admit it.
"I also missed you." Jiang Yue said as he nuzzled into his husband’s arms.
"You have just broken through and you need to retreat for a few days."
"I know." Jiang Yue said with a sad look on his face.
"Don’t worry, I will wait for you." Yu Nianzhen said as he rubbed Jiang Yue’s head.
Hearing that, Jiang Yue sighed.
After taking another look at Yu Nianzhen, he sat cross-legged and began to meditate.
While Jiang Yue was retreating, Yu Nianzhen studied his husband.
When he used the golden teleportation talisman to find Jiang Yue, he was transferred to an empty plain.
At first, Yu Nianzhen thought the golden teleportation talisman took him to the wrong place.
With such thoughts in mind, he used it again and ended up in the same place.
In the end, Yu Nianzhen could only conclude that Jiang Yue was training in a hidden formation.
Since that was the case, he settled down to wait.
Unexpectedly, this wait lasted for more than six years.
However, Yu Nianzhen did not feel like he wasted his time.
Although the environment was not as good as the sword tower, it had abundant heaven and earth qi.
While waiting for Jiang Yue, Yu Nianzhen retreated to absorb some of the things he hadn’t understood when he left the sword tower.
At the same time, he improved his cultivation and was now at the peak of the late stage of the nascent soul realm.
With a little chance and effort, he would directly break through to the peak of the nascent soul realm.
’We still have a little more than one hundred and forty years.’ He thought but soon frowned.
If he and Jiang Yue didn’t find a way, they would follow his master and other ancestors to be stuck at the peak of the nascent soul realm.
"Brother Li said there will be a way." He muttered but his mind didn’t relax.
Other than finding a way to advance to the reincarnation realm, Yu Nianzhen was also worried about resources.
At the moment, he and Jiang Yue only had a few million mid-grade spirit stones and three peak-grade spirit stones.
Although the spirit stones sounded like a lot, Yu Nianzhen didn’t know if they were enough to break through to the reincarnation realm.
’We have too little information.’ He thought with a frown on his face.
Unfortunately, they had no way to solve it for the time being so Yu Nianzhen didn’t continue to think about it.
After taking another look at Jiang Yue, he stood up and began to practice his swordsmanship.
In this way, one month passed and Jiang Yue stabilised his cultivation.
"Are you okay?" Yu Nianzhen asked.
"Good." Jiang Yue said with a smile on his lips.
Hearing that, Yu Nianzhen pulled the person and their lips locked.
After more than one hundred and fifty years, their first kiss was like dry wood and fire.
Before long, their clothes were removed and the two landed on the ground.
Under the clear sky, an ancient dance was staged and a beautiful duet resounded in the empty plain.
When it was over, the two embraced and the years slowly went by...
Four months later, Jiang Yue and Yu Nianzhen left the Myriad Forms Mountain.
"Do you think the others have already gone to the Lightning Valley?" Jiang Yue questioned.
"I don’t know." Yu Nianzhen said and frowned.
"If I can, I want to come back to the Myriad Forms Mountain." Jiang Yue said and sighed.
"Me too." Yu Nianzhen agreed.
They had already talked about their different experiences and both felt the Myriad Forms Mountain was an extremely magical place.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t stay there for much longer because they still had to train their body.
"Maybe there will be a chance in the future." Yu Nianzhen comforted.
"I hope so." Jiang Yue said.
