Chapter 293: Unknown Territory! The Imprisoned Peach
Just as Jiang Yifeng was about to reveal the details of the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, Jiang Erbao interrupted him.
"Uncle Erman, you mustn't!"
"The evil method you're talking about, I can roughly guess; it's not yet the time of desperation, this technique must not see the light of day!"
"Otherwise, the defense line we've painstakingly built might be breached by the Immortal Dao cultivators!"
Jiang Erbao's reaction was completely unexpected for Jiang Yifeng.
However, upon hearing Erbao's words, Jiang Yifeng understood his concerns.
If this evil method were to spread, the first to collapse might be the Holy City.
After all, the Holy City is currently the place with the most Divine Dao cultivators.
If those Immortal Dao cultivators learn that there's a dark art that can convert them to the Divine Dao, some might set their sights on the Divine Dao cultivators guarding the silver waterfall.
Human nature is unpredictable. There are bound to be such people.After all, at this time, all cultivators know that the Divine Dao is the strongest, even capable of withstanding the silver waterfall.
Some uninformed Immortal Dao cultivators might believe that by cultivating the Divine Dao, they could fear neither the silver waterfall nor the apocalypse.
These are all uncertain matters.
Indeed, now is not the time for the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao to emerge.
As for Jiang Erbao's rough knowledge of the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao?
Jiang Yifeng wasn't actually surprised.
After all, the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao are really quite simple.
As long as one deeply understands what the Divine Dao is, knowing the underlying logic of the Divine Dao, it's not hard to deduce.
Now, Erbao is a Supreme God-level Divine Dao cultivator.
How could he not understand?
The reason the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao haven't emerged isn't due to a lack of technique; it's because Erbao feels it's not yet the time of desperation.
Erbao clearly refused Jiang Yifeng's Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, indicating he didn't need it.
Yet Jiang Yifeng uncharacteristically insisted on revealing the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
He conveyed the entire Dark Arts of the Divine Dao to Erbao through a voice transmission.
This left Jiang Erbao bewildered.
What's going on?
Didn't he say it wasn't needed?
Why insist on forcing it?
However, Erbao didn't say much more.
After all, he knew the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao weren't much.
He himself is a Divine Dao cultivator; would he even cultivate it?
Moreover, the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao were quite similar to what he had thought of before.
Even if "Uncle Erman" didn't say it, creating it wouldn't be difficult for him.
As for Jiang Yifeng?
What he was thinking now was: Is my guess correct?
Does a circle represent a closed loop?
Indeed, Jiang Yifeng insisted on revealing the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao because he was actively promoting a closed loop.
Upon seeing the numerous circles he left as hints for the future, the first thing that came to his mind was a closed loop.
After all, in previous simulations, there had been many closed-loop scenarios.
This made Jiang Yifeng wonder if his future self, at some point, failed to complete a closed loop, leading to something bad.
So, he left hints for his current self to complete the loop?
Or is it that the closed loop is a trap?
To break the loop?
With these speculations, Jiang Yifeng came up with an idea.
To actively complete a non-existent closed loop.
This way, if he is meant to promote the loop, completing one more shouldn't have much impact.
If he is meant to break out of the loop?
A loop that originally shouldn't have been completed by him, if he completes it, should have some effect!
Perhaps this is akin to planting a seed here.
Maybe it could help him in the future.
Of course, these are all just Jiang Yifeng's speculations.
There's a high possibility that they're all wrong.
So, he needed to choose something that wouldn't significantly impact the future to complete the loop.
Even if his guess is wrong, completing this loop wouldn't have serious consequences.
That's why he chose to reveal the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao.
In Jiang Yifeng's understanding, this loop shouldn't have been completed by him.
After all, for Erbao, a Supreme God-level Divine Dao cultivator, creating the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao is easy.
Initially, Jiang Yifeng was unsure and hesitant.
Until Erbao said it wasn't needed, that he could bring the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao to light anytime he wanted.
This instantly made Jiang Yifeng resolute.
Good, truly excellent.
He needed this kind of loop that shouldn't exist.
So, even after Erbao outright refused the Dark Arts of the Divine Dao, Jiang Yifeng still stubbornly transmitted the dark arts to Erbao.
No matter what, this loop was forcibly completed by him.
As for what changes it might bring, Jiang Yifeng didn't know.
---
In an unknown place.
A place even the simulator couldn't reach.
A woman sat cross-legged in the void.
Suddenly, a burst of laughter echoed from the void.
"Hahaha, your young master is still as foolish as ever, creating non-existent loops."
"Soon, soon, with a few more loops, my plan will succeed."
Hearing this, the woman sitting cross-legged sneered.
"Hehehe, let me think, how many times have you said that?"
With that, she really started counting on her fingers.
Immediately, the entire void trembled, and the woman spat out a mouthful of blood.
But she wasn't worried at all.
Instead, she laughed even louder.
"Hahaha, you're anxious, you're anxious!"
In the blink of an eye, a phantom black-robed figure appeared before her, gripping her throat.
Seeing this, the woman's eyes lit up.
"Come on, come on, kill me if you dare!"
"What, don't dare? You little trash!"
"****!"
A torrent of "national essence" spewed from the woman's mouth!
She kept provoking the black-robed man.
Seeing this, the black-robed man suddenly released his grip on her throat, sneering.
"Heh, trying to provoke me? Want me to kill you?"
"You want to die? Want your remaining soul fragment to receive your memories?"
"Hahaha, I won't let you have your way!"
Although he wouldn't kill the woman, she had dampened his spirits, so he decided to give her some suffering.
With a wave of his hand, the black-robed man banished the woman to a space filled with void beasts.
The woman wasn't surprised by this!
This wasn't the first time.
She knew what awaited her was endless battles; constant revival and death.
However, she wasn't afraid.
In fact, she was a bit excited.
Although being banished to this space would be painful.
But only here did she have a chance to leave the void, to get away from that black-robed man.
Only here did she have a chance to descend to her soul fragment, to catch a distant glimpse of the young master.
This woman was none other than Peach.
The previous outburst of Little Peach was actually triggered by Peach in this space.
And to be precise, it wasn't really a crossing of time and space.
Peach and Little Peach were never reincarnations; they were the same person.
Little Peach was a soul fragment Peach intentionally left behind.
Her contingency plan.
As for when she left this contingency?
It was before she was captured by the black-robed man.
How long ago exactly, she didn't know.
After all, in the void, there is no time.
Perhaps it was just recently!
