"The space I am in is a side gate at the end of zero time, which only allows the unborn living to pass through and enter the pure land of zero time."

"However, only in the Fifth History will my flesh and blood rot like diseased willow catkins, my soul become abnormally decayed, and even the emptiness within will be filled with substance..."

The sky travels through a space formed by countless mirrors.

I've lost count of how many days this has been going on.

As the god of time, he should not have confused any concept of time.

But now.

The heavens had no idea how much time had passed.

This is a separate area.

"That's what you said at the time."

"Is this what you call 'zero hour'?"

"Is the Fifth Histories the Fifth Era?"

"What are you?"

"What is your purpose in contacting me?"

As he walked, Cang Qiong repeatedly asked the same question.

Whoosh!

This step has been taken.

But then it felt like I was back where I started.

They clearly didn't leave.

Then I felt like I had left.

Countless mirrors, and in the mirror in front of me, I see my own back reflected.

The mirror behind me reflected my own face again.

This space is so vast that it's hard to even call it an illusion.

It is still the real place.

How long will we be stuck here?

Is it finite, or forever?

Finally, perhaps after asking the question for the ten thousandth time.

In the mirror behind me.

A figure just like himself emerged from the crowd.

"Is it me again?"

Cang Qiong turned around, faced the figure, and said calmly, "I have seen too many versions of myself."

The sky reflected in the mirror smiled and said, "Is that so?"

The sky asked, "So, what are you?"

"I am your true demon."

Upon hearing this answer...

Cang Qiong looked inward and found that the original demon in his sea of ​​consciousness had actually disappeared.

Every time this demon is reborn, the first thing the heavens do is to obliterate it.

But... this time is different.

The demon's presence can no longer be sensed in my mind.

He appeared before him.

This future is not visible.

Since arriving in this place, the sky has lost sight of the future, or perhaps it's because this place has no future.

I sighed inwardly.

Sigh, it still happened.

This demon is definitely a bit problematic.

The demon said, "I sense that you are resistant to me."

“I don’t know why you’re resisting; you are Lu Cang.”

Cang Qiong: "I have been called Cang Qiong for much longer than I have been called Lu Cang."

"That should be the name of another friend of mine, rather than mine."

The demon asked, "I don't understand, why do you deny yourself?"

"And if you don't care, why should you care who the name is?"

Cang Qiong: "Really... so long-winded."

"So what if my name is Lu Cang?"

"It's just that I've gotten used to it because of what guys like Shin Sengen, Myne, Naraku, and Zhuya call me, that's all."

"In these billions of years, no one has called me Lu Cang, they have all called me Cang Qiong, that's all."

"I don't care at all whether someone has the character 'Lu' in their name or the character 'Qiong' in their name."

"I am who I am, and I have no qualms about my identity."

The demon opened its mouth.

The sky's answer was very straightforward.

It's clear that he wasn't confused at all.

This demon: "So, why did you try to destroy me?"

Cang Qiong seemed to realize that this demon was a problem child, so he simply sat cross-legged on the ground in front of him.

The mirror reflects the sky.

"I'm just worried that you're someone's backup plan."

"I know myself best. I'm a very troublesome guy, so you have to be careful."

I wonder if it's because of this space.

The sky seemed to have lost its restraint as well.

He scratched his head and said, "Sigh."

"Actually, I never thought I was such a troublesome person before."

"It wasn't until I realized I was facing my own opponent that I realized how formidable it was."

This demon: "Does it necessarily have to be an opponent?"

Azure Sky: "Who knows?"

"Naraku's choice was to kill that guy and let me obtain all three of the Phantom Body."

"Only by collecting all three illusions can we fight against Zero."

This demon: "But?"

Cangqiong: "But Naraku didn't urge me, and it's impossible for me to openly fight that guy to the death now."

If the heavens could see him from afar, they would probably be very surprised.

Because right now, I feel like I've taken truth serum.

They say everything.

"In the end, there is no real opportunity to take action."

"Kill both the enemy and him."

"We also need to kill one of the three phantoms of the Zero Order faction."

“Both he and the others are our own people.”

"Heh, cutting off our own main force before the big battle..."

This is undoubtedly tantamount to the actions of rebels. Even if the heavens have reason and evidence, and even if it is for the sake of final victory, this behavior is still unacceptable.

A choice to take a step back.

It means letting the other side kill.

The opposing team killed both Du and Lu Cang.

He will go and snatch the three illusory bodies back himself.

but……

If you kill Lu Cang, Lu Cang will enter the cycle of reincarnation.

They want to seize the reincarnation body.

Therefore, it is necessary to arrange in advance a method to prevent him from reincarnating.

To go even further.

Lu Cang... could he be killed so easily?

Naraku mentioned that Lu Cang also had his own ideas.

If it drags on for too long, and Ahkator achieves the power of the Inner God, he might be able to use Lu Cang's reincarnation body to open the realm of reincarnation.

At that time, he will lead more people to reincarnation.

However, this involves more people.

It doesn't include oneself.

If both Lu Cangs enter reincarnation, then who will reincarnate? Who will be reborn on the toilet and gain Lu Cang's complete consciousness?

If this happens.

What I'm about to inherit is probably just a dilapidated world.

You seem troubled.

Cang Qiong frowned.

He had actually thought about this matter a long time ago.

But thinking about it now, I feel a complex and inexplicable feeling in my heart.

"I am a little troubled."

The sky looked up again.

The [Lu Cang Original Demon] before them was already decayed, like a corpse that had been dead for a long time, rotting like fertilizer, with flies and mosquitoes flying around it.

But this place.

How could flies and mosquitoes possibly fly in like that?

"Perhaps this isn't your only option?"

The rot before my eyes.

But it posed a question that went deep into the soul. Cang Qiong looked into the other's soul and found that the other's soul was also decaying like willow catkins.

Only in the Fifth Histories will my flesh and blood rot like diseased willow catkins, my soul become utterly decayed, and even the emptiness within me will be filled with substance…

The sense of time in the sky suddenly returned to normal.

Although the space itself has not changed, it is still a space surrounded by countless mirrors.

But the heavens could sense it.

At this very moment, in the space and time I find myself...

It is the Fifth Era.
