Zheng Ya, still harboring doubts, temporarily ignored Wu Wei and Sheng Xiang's threats and pressed Xie Ming for answers: "Do you know the restrictions on crossing boundaries?"
What seems like a minor issue actually reveals a major problem.
Who can compare to Zheng Ya, a cultivator who has merged three souls and transcended realms?
This is a problem in itself. Unfortunately, Zheng Ya's understanding of the boundary-crossing system is too superficial. Only by clarifying the boundary-crossing system can he analyze the legitimacy of Zheng Ya's existence as a boundary-crosser.
Xie Ming was taken aback, and said thoughtfully, "Brother, you might be asking this because you don't know about the system of crossing realms."
In fact, this is not a problem at all within the circles of the powerful and influential.
It sounds like monopoly capitalism. Whether it's resource monopoly or monopoly of supernatural abilities and cultivation knowledge, it's a system that restricts people from striving for progress.
I wonder if this explanation is acceptable to you, brother?
"Yes, in my opinion, being a simple, lower-class person is a kind of happiness." Zheng Ya was, after all, a soul that had lived three lifetimes. Having been exposed to the knowledge of four worlds, his knowledge was both one-sided and comprehensive, forming its own system.
A comprehensive knowledge base comes from growing up from the bottom and understanding the most fundamental ways of life for most people.
Then, guided by the Blue Star Plan, humanity developed and grew stronger, venturing into the starry sea, witnessing the decisions of the decision-makers, and gaining a general understanding of how people acted differently due to their status and occupation.
Although his knowledge was vague and he had not experienced it firsthand, Zheng Ya's understanding of it broadened his horizons.
It's normal for those in positions of power to keep core secrets from those at the bottom and to have their own system for dealing with ordinary people.
As the saying goes, core technologies are always in the hands of top researchers. Even national leaders may know about them and take them seriously, but they cannot control or utilize them. They only have the right to make decisions and use them, and these are classified as secrets and not known to the general public.
Given that Xie Ming revealed that only the Tower of Babel officials knew about the interdimensional crossing system, it's quite normal, isn't it?
Xie Ming smiled knowingly. It seemed that this older brother was no ordinary person: "Brother, there's only one thing I can say: rigorously cross boundaries and annihilate evil spirits."
"Uh, I see!" Zheng Ya's heart pounded; there was definitely something wrong.
These eight simple words reveal the iron-fisted approach of the system.
Zheng Ya then realized that his existence as a transmigrator with three souls united was definitely illegal.
It's a bold guess that it might have been used as a guinea pig by the Tower of Babel official team.
This is by no means accidental; there must be a reason behind it.
So they've become guinea pigs, mere tools?
This made Zheng Ya feel uneasy. Xie Ming noticed his unusual reaction and, unable to understand his situation, comforted him, "Brother, as far as I know, existence is inevitable."
"Hmm, thank you for reminding me. Are you really planning to return to the Qian Yuan Continent ahead of schedule?" Zheng Ya couldn't accept reality for a moment and asked in a state of confusion.
To avoid awkwardness, change the subject.
In a sense, Zheng Ya couldn't explain to anyone the existence of his three souls being one.
After all, the transmigrators arrived with the aid of the Tower of Babel mark, choosing the memories and appearance of the target person and merging them into one. They only used the target person's memories and appearance, and did not even use the target person's blood type.
Using this as a means to intervene in one's identity, one can cultivate across different realms.
Everything revolves around the superhuman's genes, aiming to achieve a complete cross-dimensional journey of body and soul, integrating the target's memories and appearance, and intervening in cultivation in another world.
This is completely different from Zheng Ya's method of crossing realms by merging his three souls.
If Zheng Ya knew that Wu Wei's soul had split and crossed realms, resulting in the birth of two souls in one body on Blue Star, he might have a new idea.
After all, the two of them had traveled to Earth, so theoretically they were competitors.
If the Tower of Babel officials discover that the soul of the transmigrator is abnormal and shows signs of demonic transformation, they will send an Annihilator to intervene.
This shows that Wu Wei's soul is unstable and needs a transmigrator to test the degree of Wu Wei's soul becoming demonic and compliant, and to determine whether Wu Wei should be kept or eliminated.
Of course, this relates to the loopholes in the Tower of Babel's markings that monitor those who cross boundaries.
Or perhaps the evil forces are constantly devising new methods, and may possess the means, treasures, and abilities to obscure the monitoring of the Tower of Babel's mark, thus making it a safer approach to have the transmigrators personally test the waters.
Unfortunately, Zheng Ya was unaware of the unspoken rules involved, missing an opportunity to discern the meaning of his own existence and the clues to the birth of the three souls merging into one.
Xie Ming smiled and said, "Big brother comes from a poor family and urgently needs to gather a huge amount of resources to cultivate."
But I have no shortage of cultivation resources.
The only thing lacking was Foundation Establishment, but now that my elder brother has helped me achieve it, there's no reason for me to stay and compete with him for resources.
"Well, I appreciate your kindness. When will you return?" Zheng Ya stopped being coy and refused. He had too many things to do and didn't have time to waste with people.
The key issue is that although the two became friends in this way, they each harbored some resentment and could not develop a deep friendship.
Furthermore, the two are not of equal social standing and have nothing in common to talk about.
It feels like the friendship between gentlemen is as pure as water.
Xie Ming said with a wry smile, "My brother probably thinks that if I stay and play Sheng Xiang to death, it will fit the image of Sheng Xiang and me being sworn enemies, with no end in sight."
In fact, once you successfully establish your foundation, your cultivation will accelerate, and your realm will rise. Killing enemies anywhere will be a piece of cake; there's no need to rush.
"Haha, you don't need to explain these things to me. I don't take Sheng Xiang and Wu Wei seriously." Zheng Ya wasn't exaggerating.
If Zheng Ya hadn't been concerned about offending the forces behind Wu Wei and Sheng Xiang, as well as angering the officials of the Tower of Babel, he would have taken action against them long ago.
Although Zheng Ya initially had no intention of killing Wu Wei, Wu Wei's repeated schemes against Zheng Ya had crossed his bottom line, causing Zheng Ya to secretly harbor murderous intent.
Of course, those who have crossed over from powerful and influential families generally possess one or more trump cards to protect themselves, making them difficult to kill, which is also what Zheng Ya is wary of.
As the saying goes, if you don't kill a snake, it will become a menace.
Zheng Ya's current dilemma is whether to refrain from attacking Wu Wei and Sheng Xiang, or to kill them both.
We are all executioners, our hands stained with blood, and we will show no mercy to our enemies.
Xie Ming smiled knowingly: "Alright then, Big Brother, you can go ahead and do it. If anything goes wrong, I'll do my best to support you. Farewell!"
"Okay, have a safe trip!" Zheng Ya wasn't sure how much his promise was worth, and always believed that it was better to rely on oneself than on others.
Besides, if Xie Ming really protects them, they'll be labeled as part of Xie Ming's faction, and who knows how much trouble that will cause?
In the struggle between forces, it is often the marginalized people and their retainers who are sacrificed.
Zheng Ya would never do anything that requires him to risk his life for others.
With a "hum," Xie Ming directly activated the Tower of Babel mark and chose to return to the Qian Yuan Continent.
He was enveloped in silver light, looking magnificent in the midday sun, before his figure gradually faded and he vanished into thin air.
It felt like I was watching a scene where silver enveloped a person and vaporized into a living person?
It gives people an unreal feeling.
Only a slight ripple remained in the space, like water rippling for a fleeting moment, resonating into the human senses.
Daiyu was filled with wonder: "Is this how you travel between worlds? How amazing!"
"If you envy me, then you should cultivate diligently and successfully establish your foundation as soon as possible. You'll then have a chance to cross over to the Qian Yuan Continent and embark on the path to immortality." Zheng Ya felt this even more deeply, and a sense of urgency inexplicably arose in his heart...
