Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 1203 - 14: My Dreams Soar Freely
The interior of the moon does not appear to be the naturally formed core that Wang Yunxiao had imagined; it looks more like some kind of artificially synthesized creation.
Along the smooth and steep walls, he could even see various deformed human skeletal fossils.
There were ones with wings, ones with three heads and three legs, and even giants of at least five meters tall.
"Legend has it that the Creators claimed to have created all things in the universe, and the moon is the fabled Eden, the origin of all life in the world, therefore calling it ’the primal embryo’."
Zeng Yun walked ahead, explaining to him in a low voice.
"What are the Creators?"
"The God created by the Stonecraft Association in the future era."
"Creating an omniscient and omnipotent God in the future era, and then reversing the timeline to return to the past?"
Wang Yunxiao was no longer the clueless novice he once was; his understanding of these concepts was much deeper than that of ordinary people.
"That was the plan, but in practice, it neither had feasibility nor execution."
Zeng Yun laughed, "Aren’t the Foreigners always like this, short-sighted and profit-driven? When they boast, they paint a huge cake, but behind the scenes, they only have their petty calculations."
"Theoretically, going back thousands of years to recreate a complete and advanced system of religious belief to guide the development of racial civilization is the ideal result, but it is meaningless in the present. They do not even trust their fellow kin, let alone ancestors from thousands of years ago."
In short, it’s about seizing the moment and enjoying life while one can.
As they gradually approached the core, the gravitational pressure around them grew stronger, and even the air temperature became unusually oppressive.
The walls on both sides displayed more and more bizarre fossils, and they could even see massive computers and solar panels.
Could these things also fossilize?
In the Real World, certainly not, but here—who can say?
Just as the gravitational pressure began to slightly unnerve Wang Yunxiao, his surroundings suddenly opened up.
They had arrived at the moon’s surface once more.
But it was not the moon suspended above the Shattered Star Sea.
Darkness enveloped them, with no starlight in sight.
Wang Yunxiao looked up and found an expansive and boundless land above his head.
A current, barely visible to the naked eye, flowed slowly between the moon and the land, while the roar of waves echoed in their ears, seemingly washing away Wang Yunxiao’s brain and continuously erasing his memory of the previous second.
This place is...
The scene appeared very familiar, and after a moment of thought, Wang Yunxiao guessed the answer.
The Time River.
More accurately, a branch of the Time River.
Though this was not his first contact with the Time River, previously he only glimpsed a fragment of it during advances in Cultivation Dharma Gate, at the level of his soul, like fragmented memories from a dream he couldn’t wholly remember.
"Look over there!"
Zeng Yun pointed to the side, and Wang Yunxiao followed his finger.
A towering peak rose abruptly from the moon’s surface, piercing deeply into the Time River.
Though he had never seen such a sight before, seeing the jagged mountain gave Wang Yunxiao a sense of familiar intimacy.
"That is my personal peak."
Zeng Yun said softly.
"You know, when Emperor Qin Shi Huang originally built the Great Wall, it was not meant to defend against the Xiongnu, but as a fortress to stockpile munitions and gather an army for an expedition beyond the frontier."
"When you advance to the Yulin Forbidden Army, you will also have your own personal peak. It is like a bayonet, replacing defense with offense, piercing deeply into the Time River." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
"As long as we stand guard here, the Temporal Tide cannot recklessly invade the Ming Country’s territory. Even if the mountain crumbles, we can use our bodies to block the shockwaves of the tide."
Wang Yunxiao looked around and asked puzzledly, "Is there only this one mountain?"
"Of course, there is not just this one; if you can climb to the top of the peak, you will see other mountains in the distance. However... there aren’t many."
Saying this, Zeng Yun’s tone grew somber.
"As of now, there are only seven Yulin Forbidden Army members nationwide, myself included."
"Even counting people like you, who have a very high probability of achieving a second advance before the arrival of the Grand Wave, we reach only eighteen."
"We are the first wall that blocks the Grand Wave."
A very high probability?
Honestly, Wang Yunxiao felt a bit unsure.
The paths of Garrison Soldiers Dharma Gate in the Righteous Path and Heretical Path were fundamentally different.
After advancing to Blood Slaughter, he discovered that his progress in the Righteous Path’s cultivation had almost entirely stagnated.
According to the Navy’s arrangements, after graduating from the Naval Academy, he would board a warship and become a ship captain, perhaps then finding an opportunity to advance.
But that was at least four years away.
If the Grand Wave could wait four years for Wang Yunxiao was another matter.
Speaking of the Grand Wave...
"Do you want to personally experience what the Grand Wave feels like?"
Zeng Yun seemed to read his thoughts and spoke directly.
"Is it something you can actually experience?"
Wang Yunxiao was surprised.
"Come with me!"
Zeng Yun, with hands behind his back, rose into the air, flying towards a distant mountain.
Wang Yunxiao followed closely.
The peak was over two thousand meters high, and as they approached, he realized it was not a natural creation—more like someone had grabbed a handful of mud and forcibly molded it into a pillar on the land.
