Chapter 779 - The Sovereign’s Inverse
Chapter 779: Chapter 779 – The Sovereign’s Inverse
Seeing Zhou Xuanji’s expression, Shen Tang couldn’t help but ask, “What’s the matter?”
Shen Nianxing couldn’t help but also look back at him.
“Nothing, I just came up with a possibility. Let’s continue, ” Zhou Xuanji replied, shaking his head. He had regained his calm.
The nearby Little Sovereign snickered as a treacherous look appeared on his face.
They then made their way to the wooden house. The house wasn’t that big. Presumably, it only had one room. In front of the door, there was a garden. There weren’t any trees, just some flowers and shrubs. Despite there being no wind, they swayed side to side.
Zhou Xuanji looked at the wooden door with some hesitation.
“Hey, Sovereign, won’t you come out to see us?” Little Sovereign said, grinning. Shen Tang and Shen Nianxing immediately glanced at each other.
They were very puzzled. Does this Sovereign knows the current Sovereign?
They were so nervous that they didn’t dare to speak up. After all, they were at the Sovereign’s residence.
CREAK…
The wooden door suddenly opened. It was completely pitch-black inside. They couldn’t see anything.
A figure slowly walked out from the darkness.
Shen Tang and Shen Nianxing’s eyes widened in shock. They appeared to be in disbelief.
“You…” Shen Nianxing almost cried in surprise but quickly covered her mouth. She then looked at Zhou Xuanji and then at the Sovereign.
The Sovereign was none other than Zhou Xuanji!
The Sovereign was wearing a pure black robe. His hair was let loose and there was a smile hanging on his lips. His eyes were deep as if he could see through all the truth in the world.
Zhou Xuanji wasn’t shocked but there was a complicated look in his eyes.
Little Sovereign also focused his gaze on the Sovereign, carefully gauging him up before a satisfied look appeared on his face.
Little Sovereign clucked his tongue and stated in amazement, “It’s as I have expected.”
Zhou Xuanji looked at him and asked, “What do you mean? Why did you jump to this conclusion?”
Little Sovereign laughed and explained, “I was just like you back then. I came here nervously. But then I found out that the Sovereign was me. Later I realized that everything had its own cause and effect. Anyone who could break out of the Anti-Kunlun had to be the Sovereign of Anti-Kunlun. It involved time, cause, and effect. It’s difficult to explain.”
Zhou Xuanji was still confused. He didn’t understand the true significance.
Shen Tang and Shen Nianjing were still in a state of shock.
The Sovereign smiled and said, “To put it bluntly, if it were not for the Sovereign’s inverse, outsiders would not live long if they came here. Every Sovereign will encounter his own inverse after coming here, this is a test for you and for us as well.”
With a wave of his hand, a rocking chair appeared behind him. He sat down and began to rock the chair, like an old grandfather at leisure.
He then leisurely said, “Kunlun Origin Court and Anti-Kunlun have been a mystery since ancient times. Speaking of which, it’s most likely related to the Mortal Gods. Mortal Gods are the only ones in between the two planes.”
Little Sovereign nodded and smiled, “If these two Mortal Gods can live forever, they might become powerful enough to freely roam the two worlds.”
As soon as he said this, Zhou Xuanji couldn’t help but look at Shen Tang and Shen Nianxing.
It seems that the bald girl in red that I met at the beginning wasn’t Shen Nianxiang.
Why is it that only the Mortal Gods are unique?
Could it be that the rules of the two worlds were created by the Mortal God!?
Zhou Xuanji didn’t ruminate upon it further and asked, “Then can you let me return?”
He was very anxious to return. Whatever the rules of the two worlds were, they weren’t related to his current business.
He couldn’t understand. And plus he had to reach the realm of Sovereign to understand.
The Sovereign glanced at him, smiling very mysteriously.
“If you want to leave, you have to do it yourself, don’t look at me,” Sovereign answered with a profound meaning. Little Sovereign broke into laughter. Their smiles in Zhou Xuanji’s eyes seemed treacherous.
Zhou Xuanji asked, “How can I leave?”
Sovereign shook his head and replied, laughing, “No need to be in a hurry. I want to ask you some questions. How did you feel after coming here? How is it different from the Anti-Kunlun?”
The residents of both Kunlun Origin Courts believed the other to be Anti-Kunlun. This notion was rooted from the most ordinary beings to the Sovereign.
Zhou Xuanji replied, “There isn’t any vitality here. It’s like hell.”
Shen Tang and Shen Nianxing nodded in agreement.
From childhood to adulthood, they had seldom left the Mortal Divine Range because the elders said that it was too dangerous outside. Thus, restricting the actions of the younger generations.
“Then do you know why this is so?” Sovereign asked with a smile. Zhou Xuanji felt like he was looking in the mirror.
Including Zhou Fa, he had already met two people who looked exactly like him. He found it very awkward.
Zhou Xuanji raised his brow and asked, “I should be asking you this very question, right?”
Sovereign wasn’t just the strongest.
He had his own responsibility.
“Your Anti-Kunlun should have had a dark period, right? Our Kunlun Origin Court just experienced it. Had I not campaigned across the world and dominated the Sovereign List, suppressing all Divine Ranges, this Kunlun Origin Court would be already more like hell that it is now,” Sovereign explained with a smirk.
Zhou Xuanji sighed, “Since you and I are the same, you should understand my current mood?”
Sovereign nodded. His smile began to fade.
Zhou Xuanji keenly caught it. He immediately asked, “Do you have a family?”
Sovereign expressionlessly replied, “No, the road to being the strongest is lonely. Only by being alone can you be strong.”
Zhou Xuanji’s heart sank.
When he came to the Anti-Kunlun, he thought of many scenes where he met his family. However, he hadn’t expected things to turn out like this.
Are they dead?
Looking at the peaceful Sovereign, he inexplicably felt that he was looking at the dead him.
The two sunk into silence.
Shen Nianxing doubtfully looked at the two. She had no idea what was going on in their minds.
Shen Tang, on the other hand, was caught in her thoughts. She seemed to have thought of something. She looked at Zhou Xuanji with pity.
“Okay, let’s get to the point,” Little Sovereign broke the silence. There was a meaningful smile on his face, looking at Zhou Xuanji with expectations.
Zhou Xuanji looked at him and asked with his eyes.
“It’s very simple. It’s to prove your strength to the Sovereign, prove him that you will become the Sovereign. As long as you pass this, he will open the channel between the two worlds. One needs to at least have the strength of Origin Fusion Divine Lord to enter the passage between the two worlds. And the Inverse Chaos divine ability to stabilize the passage,” explained Little Sovereign. His gaze were glued on Zhou Xuanji.
We have arrived at this point. Kid, don’t let me down.
Zhou Xuanji, looking at the Sovereign, asked, “Is that right?”
Sovereign nodded and replied, smiling, “I’ll just sit here. If you can make me stand, you will win.”
With a wave of his hand, Shen Tang and Shen Nianxing were moved a hundred meters away as a circular barrier appeared, isolating them.
Zhou Xuanji directly cast the Sword Fusion Technique, holding the Lesser Supreme Sword in his left hand and the Great Destiny of Moon in his right. Immediately, his aura skyrocketed, shaking the sea of clouds.
The Sovereign raised his brow and praised with a smile, “Your Sword Fusion Technique is pretty good. It seems you have many swords. And all of them are extraordinary.”
Zhou Xuanji’s gaze became stern as he cast the Primordial Chaos Sword Shadow. Instantly, billions of swords appeared above the sky out of thin air, flying straight toward the Sovereign.
The sword shadows disappeared into thin air as soon as they came in contact with the Sovereign and the wooden House.
Zhou Xuanji kicked the ground as he arrived before the Sovereign in just one step. He then raised the sword and swung it down, but was immediately repelled back by an invisible force with a loud bang.
“It seems that your cultivation isn’t enough,” the Sovereign said, smiling. He had a contemptuous look on his face.
