Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 879 - 126: Knowing the Truth Doesn’t Matter Much

"Since you’d like to listen, I’ll give you a brief explanation."

"You should already have some understanding of the concept of Temporal Tide, so I won’t elaborate further."

Xia Yubing took out the Bronze Mirror and turned it over in her hand.

In the next instant, the three of them were plunged into a darkness so deep that they couldn’t even see their hands in front of them.

Behind Xia Yubing’s head, a halo of light appeared as she sat solemnly on a Lotus Platform, with a radiant lotus flower blossoming from the palm of her hand.

As the lotus flower bloomed, its petals unfurled gracefully. The outermost petals gradually withered and decayed, silently falling into the darkness, while the core of the flower shone ever more brilliantly.

"This is the higher-dimensional space-time model."

"It looks somewhat like something from Buddhism?"

"Different conclusions can be drawn from different perspectives. What I am showing you is one possibility constructed by the quantum computing institute within Daylily Academy."

"So you admit it!"

"Are you going to keep listening or not?"

"Yes! Teacher Xia, please continue!"

Xia Yubing supported the lotus flower and explained in a low voice, "The Buddha said, ’One flower, one world,’ and this lotus flower is equivalent to a ’world’ in a general sense, and the world lines you know are these petals."

"The blooming and withering of the lotus is a cycle. What we refer to as Shiyan is that at some point in the future, this lotus completely withers and falls into extinction. The lotus seeds nurtured within will then take root and sprout, beginning the next cycle."

"Every world line will enter a state of Shiyan, withering and decaying, essentially having exhausted its own nutrients. Only the lotus seeds in the heart of the lotus can continue to absorb nutrients and enter the next cycle."

"Thus, the only way to transcend the cycle is to become a lotus seed."

"Theoretically, as part of the petals, it’s impossible for us to transform into a lotus seed. Therefore, future generations proposed a plan to extract nutrients from the petals, changing their life form from plants to animals, becoming a worm that crosses the void and parasitizes the lotus seed, entering the next cycle under the protection of the seed’s shell."

"The Ancient Dragon Court Plan?"

Li Mumu suddenly grasped something she hadn’t previously understood when it was first mentioned.

"What are you talking about?"

Shen Qingxi looked left and right, her face full of confusion.

Hating this feeling of being excluded.

Clearly, my intelligence isn’t low, so why can’t I understand?

"The Ancient Dragon Court Plan involves planting ’Dragon Maiden’ seeds at crucial nodes along the entire timeline to gather the fire of civilization, promoting the evolution of life forms. But this essentially means extracting resources from the respective world lines, which inevitably brings enormous harm to that world line. Once the plan succeeds and all Dragon Maidens leave their current world line to return to the Royal Court, it means this world line would lose its highest level of combat power, making it easy prey for external invasions."

"In response to this, the Dragon Maidens have also performed subsequent preparations, leaving enough buffering in this world. Using a two-thousand-year node, there have been at least four design iterations that can be verified to date."

"It’s already been iterated four times?"

"Eight thousand years ago, at the start of the historical line, the first Dragon Maiden appeared. By six thousand years ago, during Xia Yu’s time managing the waters, Dragon Maidens began to appear symbolically as the Yangtze River and Yellow River, emerging in pairs. They competed with each other, and the loser would lose the qualification of being a Dragon Maiden, remaining in the Mortal World."

"Four thousand years ago, during the Zhou Wu’s conquest of Shang, the concept of ’Pseudo-Dragon Maiden’ appeared, further sharing the power of the Dragon Maiden with mortals."

"Two thousand years ago, in the Qin-Han era, Dragon Maidens established the General’s Mansion in the identity of ’Great General’, cultivating the strength of mortals and forming their own armies."

"Until now, Dragon Maidens of our era chose another route bypassing the Ancient Dragon Court Plan by annexing Fusang, using Fusang’s national fortune to cultivate feudal Dragon Maidens, namely the Master of Ten Thousand Transformations, Black Dragon Princess."

"When the Ancient Dragon Court Plan is initiated, all successfully evolved Dragon Maidens will ascend from their respective time points to integrate into the Dragon Court. Those who cannot complete their evolution, or those like the Black Dragon Princess who don’t belong to the Huaxia civilization, will be left behind to become the defense force of this timeline."

"Our current President, Xu Ziwei, is an unevolved Dragon Maiden. She inherited the assets left by the previous generation of Dragon Maidens, including the General’s Mansion and its army, allowing her to seize the world in mere decades and establish a new dynasty."

"And us... strictly speaking, in your memories, you are transmigrators from the future, graduates of Daylily Academy. In fact, Daylily Academy was founded by the Black Dragon Princess at some point in the future, specifically to train Dragon Maidens or artificially create Dragon Maidens. You are all replicas of Dragon Maidens."

"That’s why I say your knowledge base is inadequate and why you shouldn’t wildly speculate and guess."

Xia Yubing looked at the pair, who seemed lost in thought, and said gently, "After the initiation of the Ancient Dragon Court Plan, you replicas who failed to evolve are actually no longer needed. From your perspectives, it feels like you transmigrated from the future back to the past... But calm down and think clearly, is it possible to have such an unattainable fortune just falling from the sky?"

"No mission objective, your memories erased, and nobody seemingly managing you here."

"Have you ever thought about under what conditions your personal will would become insignificant?" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Is it that a higher-up needed to assign you important tasks and therefore sent you to this era, or... were you treated as test subjects on an experimental platform?"

"Are your personalities, thoughts, even your memories of the future real?"

"Is there a possibility that you were originally people of this era but had personalities and memories not belonging to this era implanted in you, as part of some internal plan experiment?"

"Wait, wait, you’re making my head spin!"

Shen Qingxi felt like her head was about to explode; pondering these philosophical questions was not her strength.

"Then how do I prove that I am myself?"

"Isn’t the answer quite simple? When your strength surpasses the dimension of the Real World, reaching a higher dimension, you’ll naturally understand the cause and effect from a higher vantage point."

Xia Yubing replied calmly, "Improving your own strength is the only hard truth. If your strength is too weak, you don’t even have value in being utilized, like a pawn easily sacrificed from a chessboard, you’ll have to go with the flow. Only by becoming powerful yourself can you control the game!"
