Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 606

Chapter 604: Strange Phenomenon (Additional chapter for the Silver Alliance’s wolf guarding the lamb, thanks to Kanmida for the monthly ticket)

“Are you sure it’s Bai Ze?” Jiang Li wasn’t expecting such an answer.

“There’s no mistake. Although Bai Ze is now extinct in our world, before this, there was a detailed description of Bai Ze in the Immortal Beast Observation Manual.”

“The various characteristics of the man in black are enough to make me certain that his true form is Bai Ze.”

Bai Hongtu pondered. “The fact that he can maintain his human form means he’s at least a celestial immortal. And a celestial immortal-level Bai Ze, no, he’s already a Golden Immortal.”

“Could it be a Superior Envoy of Duye?”

Jiang Li took out the remote communication talisman and asked Immortal Elder Changcun: “Immortal Elder, are there many Bai Ze in the Immortal Realm?”

Immortal Elder Changcun didn’t ask Jiang Li why he asked this question. After a moment’s thought, he said, “Not many, and they’re all Earth Immortals. The only celestial immortal-level Bai Ze is the First Generation Bai Ze Emperor.”

“How can they all be Earth Immortals?”

“Because Bai Ze are too intelligent and difficult to control. Immortal beasts are still beasts after all, and immortals want obedient immortal beasts.”

“That’s why the fairy world deliberately suppressed Bai Ze and didn’t let him grow up. The first generation Emperor Bai Ze was an exception. He relied on various loopholes in the rules and miscellaneous knowledge to become a celestial being.”

Jiang Li cut off the long-distance communication symbol: “Confirmed, it is the first generation Emperor Bai Ze, the Supreme Envoy of Duye.”

The Lord of Entropy Increase didn’t realize the problem: “What’s wrong, is there something wrong with Bai Ze?”

“We met a man on the ninth mother planet. He claimed that he was instructed by the Supreme Envoy of Duye in a dream to make the star weapons public and use public pressure to force you to dismantle the star weapons.”

“We know about this. It’s not just the ninth mother planet. There are similar situations on other mother planets. I also captured a child who claimed to be the leader of the Truth Alliance. Most of those children come from officials and businessmen. They are very idle and rebellious. They have dreams of becoming heroes and think that the world is dark. They have to save the world.”

Jiang Li was not surprised that the Lord of Entropy Increase knew about this. There are cameras all over the world. Nothing can be hidden from them.

“Then why didn’t you deal with the child from the Ninth Mother Planet?”

“Because his methods were childish and posed no threat.” The Lord of Entropy shrugged. Kong Yi’s methods only made him laugh.

He continued, “We learned from those children that they were all instigated by a man named Du Ye Shangshi in their dreams. From what you said, Du Ye Shangshi is the Bai Ze we met at the beginning?”

Bai Hongtu nodded: “Yes, that’s why we find it strange. This person’s behavior is too abnormal.”

Jiang Li suddenly asked: “Before this, has your world ever experienced a disaster that could destroy the world, I mean, apart from those strange inventions.”

“Yes, but that was five or six thousand years ago. They were all very secretive means, but under our surveillance, those disasters did not cause any big waves.”

Yu Yin tilted her head and asked Jiang Li: “What do you think?”

“I have a guess.”

“Tell me about it.”

“In the past six thousand years, whether it was sending fallen immortals or using conspiracy and trickery to make trouble, it was not the work of Du Ye Shangshi.”

“Then who could it be?”

“Honghu Shangshi.”

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin were stunned, and instantly understood what Jiang Li meant.

Jiang Li continued, “Based on the existing evidence, it seems a single celestial being was responsible for destroying some of the worlds, and there’s no overlap.”

“After the death of the Honghu Envoy, it’s possible that the Duye Envoy was in charge of the Honghu Envoy region.”

“Then why did he leave us a way to save the world?” The Entropy Overlords were confused. They had always thought the black-robed Bai Ze was a good guy, an undercover agent from the immortal realm.

“Save the world? He’s not that kind.”

“If you knew his plans in other worlds, you wouldn’t think he was a good person. He left a way to save the world only in your world, which means there’s something he wants to know about your world.”

“And judging by his deliberate concealment of his identity, he doesn’t want the immortals to know.”

The three overlords frowned and thought for a moment. The Entropy Overlord said uncertainly, “It might be related to a phenomenon we’ve observed.”

“What phenomenon?”

“It’s hard to describe. I’ll take you to see it.”

The three overlords led Jiang Li and the others to a corner of the universe. Surrounded by numerous formations, it was a secret location, and it was extremely hidden. Unless approached closely, even those of the same level couldn’t discover it.

“The government calls this the Cosmic Data Observation Center, but we three call it the Monitoring Room.”

Entering the Cosmic Data Observation Center, the first thing that caught my eye was the neatly stacked rows of videotapes.

“These tapes have been specially processed to last tens of thousands of years.”

“This is the Mother Planet Eye, observing everything on the Mother Planet.”

“This is the Cosmic Eye, observing the laws of the universe.”

“This is the Void Eye, observing what’s happening in the void and guarding against the Great Demon.”

The Void Eye is a small metal box mounted on the boundary wall.

“A dozen days ago, I observed the three of you through the Void Eye. You were so close to the camera, it really startled me. I thought the Great Demon had mutated.”

The Lord of Entropy showed a photo of Jiang Li and the other two, heads together, observing the Void Eye. It looked like a group photo.

Yu Yin facepalmed, but Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu were amused and asked the Lord of Entropy to develop it into a photo.

Bai Hongtu also instructed, “Get high-definition, the clearer the better.”

As the Lord of Entropy developed the photos, he said, “Through subsequent observation, I’ve concluded that you are from another world and have nothing to do with the Great Demon. So I decided to show up and communicate with you.”

“Before you three showed up, I observed a strange phenomenon with my Void Eye.”

The Lord of Entropy rewound the surveillance footage by a few years. A statue floated quietly in the void, unaffected by the winds.

Bai Hongtu exclaimed, “Statue of the Divine Treasure?”

Jiang Li and Yu Yin’s expressions were solemn. This was the complete statue of Venerable Shenzang.

“Do you know it?” The Lord of Entropy noticed how knowledgeable these three were.

“Keep watching the surveillance. What exactly is this strange phenomenon?”

“When I found this statue in the void, whose shape I didn’t know, I was very puzzled. I suspected it was an immortal artifact. Otherwise, how could it float in the void without any damage?”

“Just as I was about to retrieve it from the void to study it, something strange happened.”

On the screen, the statue of Venerable Shenzang floated quietly. Suddenly, a small black dot appeared in front of it.

One small black dot became two, two became four, four became eight, and so on.

When the statue of Venerable Shenzang came into contact with the small black dot, it had transformed into a small black tide.

Even more astonishing happened: the black tide continued to expand, swallowing half of the statue of Venerable Shenzang.

Then the black tide disappeared, as if it had never appeared, and only half of the statue remained. The upper half disappeared with the black tide, while the lower half continued to drift in the void.

“We have tentatively named this phenomenon the Black Tide. This is the thirty-sixth time we have observed it.”
