This is also the question he most wants to understand.
Given the terrifying nature of chaotic beings and the vastness of the universe, why did they choose the "Sea of Learning" as their dwelling place?
"After the chaos shattered, we were driven away by the goddess Nuwa and had to find another place to multiply and survive. After drifting through the universe for countless years, we found the 'Sea of Learning' located between the real and the virtual. Another reason is that the 'Sea of Learning' contains our race's sacred artifacts, and we can grow faster here."
"I refute this," Qi replied.
Shen Qian frowned, disbelievingly saying, "You mean you're hiding from Nuwa? But with Nuwa's power, if she really wanted to exterminate you, would she let you escape first?"
“I never said we were hiding from Nuwa.”
What is that?
"..." Bo Qi remained silent.
"Then the second question, what killed the Azure Lotus Buddha Venerable?" Shen Qian didn't press further, but instead asked.
"..."
"Okay, the third question is, why close off the 'Sea of Learning'?"
He took a deep breath before continuing to ask.
This time, Boqi finally spoke up, "'The Sea of Learning' is not something I've closed off..."
"Bullshit!" Shen Qian sneered. "Then do you dare let me explore the island? Although I don't know what methods you used, it's most likely related to the so-called 'sacred object' you mentioned. Didn't you just say it was the core of the rules of the Sea of Learning?"
Boqi's expression changed slightly, probably because he didn't expect that this seemingly young human could think so quickly.
"Fine, it's fine if you don't want to talk. I'll just destroy this space and see if your so-called isolation methods are still effective."
As Chen Qian spoke, the surrounding "sea of learning" began to tremble again.
"Human, is this all you know?" Bo Qi roared angrily.
"So what if it is?" Shen Qian ignored him and continued to activate the system.
Seeing that vortexes of energy were beginning to gather around them, Boqi roared angrily, but finally said helplessly, "I'm saving you..."
Shen Qian chuckled but didn't stop.
"It's true!" Boqi said urgently, "Some of you have been marked by her. If I don't close the seas and oceans off, she will soon descend again, and everyone will die. Our Chaos Clan will also be completely wiped out..."
"Her?"
Shen Qian slowly lowered his raised hand and narrowed his eyes.
This was the first time he had heard someone be addressed in this way, not as "he" or "she," but as "she," a gender-ambiguous yet all-encompassing being.
Most importantly, this title, clearly imbued with awe and fear, came from the mouth of a chaotic being of king-like status.
"So, she's the one you're avoiding?"
As the surrounding storm gradually subsided, Shen Qian confirmed, "She was the one who killed the Azure Lotus Buddha, and now it's because of her that you've sealed off the 'Sea of Learning'?"
“If I don’t do this, despair will descend and devour everything here,” Boqi whispered.
Chen Qian remained silent for a moment, digesting the information from Bo Qi.
she……
Is this the answer that Shen Qian has been searching for all along?
An unknown entity capable of annihilating even Emperor-level powerhouses.
An unknown entity that prompted the White Emperor and a host of first-generation kings to deploy the Three Suns Obscuring the Sun Formation, destroying Earth's ecosystem in order to conceal Earth's coordinates.
It said it was because someone among the human race had been marked by that being, which was absurd, but Shen Qian intuitively refuted Qi's claim that he wasn't lying.
etc!
Suddenly, something came to mind before he sank in.
If we assume that this "she" was someone who once pursued the past in the river of time, then everything seems to make sense.
Although he narrowly escaped sinking that time and escaped the river of time with the help of Jiangling Wang at the last moment, what if the other party left some hidden mark on him that time?
Given the other party's status, it's quite normal for someone capable of controlling the life and death of an emperor to be able to freely travel through the river of time.
This is also why the marks could not be detected before the sinking.
Even the system can't... If Shen Qian's guess is true, then it means that the system he has been relying on has finally failed.
This seems to correspond to the vague unease that had been lingering in Shen Qian's heart since he entered the "sea of learning".
It's still unclear why the mark hadn't taken effect until now, when that being was able to locate the "Sea of Learning." Was it because being on Earth blocked the mark's connection, or was there some other reason?
He had entered the "door" many times before sinking.
Or, when Shen Qian was behind the "door," he was actually in potential danger countless times, but he never stayed behind the "door" for long and escaped before the other party came to him, so he never ran into them.
"How do you know that there are traces of her among the human warriors?" Shen Qian paused his thoughts and looked up to ask.
"She has been gathering the remaining chaotic power in the universe. Our race has some of it, which is why we need to avoid her."
Boqi said, "With the help of the sacred object, I can sense that chaotic energy is approaching the 'Sea of Learning,' which is why I can foresee her imminent arrival."
"You mean, she's synonymous with chaos?" Shen Qian raised an eyebrow.
"She... is indescribable, unimaginable; 'chaos' is merely a description used by our people to describe her."
Listening to Boqi's cautious explanation, Shen Qian suddenly felt a toothache.
A synonym for chaos...
This sounds absolutely terrifying.
The Prince of Jiangling once came into contact with the power of chaos, which allowed him to directly cross the threshold of becoming a king or noble, and become the head of the nine kings.
