Chapter 1395 The Fire-Torch Project Begins!



Cheng Shi handed Longjing two things.

One is divinity, the other is a die.

He looked at the divinity in his hand and explained:

"Before coming here, I made a special trip to see Honglin and obtained this wisp of [Prosperity] divinity from her."

This will be the divinity you take to that world; barring any unforeseen circumstances, one unit of the [Prosperity] divinity should suffice.

Longjing was taken aback, and cautiously asked, "What if something unexpected happens?"

"Then you can pay for it first, and I'll pay you back when I get back."

"???"

No way, buddy, trying to get something for nothing!

I'm about to die, and you still want me to cover for you?

So you think dying means settling all accounts and ending it all?

Although this way of thinking is not wrong and it can be considered to make the best use of resources, Longjing's face still darkened.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi chuckled and continued:

"I told you not to be so pessimistic, I won't let you die."

Although Su Yida's death was verified by [Fraud] himself, don't forget that He was, after all, only [Fraud] within a slice of the universe. As long as He didn't leave that world, He couldn't possibly know what happened outside of it.

You've probably all seen Su Yida's memories, right? I think he couldn't see those memories from before he came into our world, right?

The Dragon King and Longjing nodded simultaneously, clearly indicating that they had thoroughly reviewed the memories of the Master of Deception in order to play their roles.

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Cheng Shi smiled.

“Very good, Longjing, this is your lifeline.”

I'll tell you the specifics, but before that, we need a life-saving item, Lao Zhang. Do you know of any life-saving items, like keepsakes, that can hold the souls of the dead for resurrection in another location?

Zhang Jizu narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and took out a small wooden piece about the length of a finger joint from his personal space.

"【Death】SS-level artifact, the Wood of Life, as you said, the soul of the life bound to it will not go to the Fishbone Hall when it dies, but will attach to it and wait for resurrection."

The advantage is that as long as the item is not destroyed, there is always a possibility of revival.

The drawback is that it can only be bound to one person.

This is one of my backup plans for survival; it hasn't been linked to anything yet.

As he spoke, Zhang Jizu handed it out.

Cheng Shi took the parasitic wood, examined it for a moment, nodded, and tossed it to Longjing, saying:

"Everything is ready; now it's time to plan the action..."

Cheng Shi laid out all the plans very seriously, and as Long Jing listened, his eyes gradually widened.

What?! You want to come with me?

Cheng Shi smiled and said, "Of course, otherwise how would the Cheng Shi from the other world meet his 'Cheng Da Shi'?"

Don't worry, my main body has things to do, but my shadow will go with you.

Now that you're traveling with someone, you should be relieved.

However, don't pin your hopes on me helping you. To avoid unnecessary accidents and changes, I will shield myself from everything, turn into an inanimate object, and become a tool on your body.

This die is made of wood of prosperity. When crushed, it will merge with the divinity of prosperity. I will hide it within the divinity until you reach that world, and then reappear as Cheng Shi of that world to complete all the 'history' I have experienced.

"no!"

As soon as Cheng Shigang finished speaking, Zhang Jizu shook his head with a solemn expression.

"This is too risky. With our current methods, we can completely simulate everything Cheng Dashi has done using a puppet-like method."

Unless absolutely necessary, you'd better not leave this world.

The real universe is dangerous.

Cheng Shi had anticipated that Old Zhang would say that. He smiled and looked at Old Zhang, asking:

"Wouldn't the real universe be in danger if you swapped places with another version of myself?"

Zhang Jizu was taken aback, then narrowed his eyes and said, "My life is insignificant, but you... are predetermined."

Cheng Shi smiled and shook his head:

"No, everyone's life is important, and I understand the importance of what is predetermined, but that should not be a reason to tie our hands and feet."

As I just said, different slices of the universe are already intertwined. If I don't get involved myself, how can I guarantee that this fire will be passed on?

Besides...

You might think this is sophistry, but I'm asking if it's possible that we must go through this situation before there's a path forward?

"......"

"......"

"......"

One sentence silenced all the clowns.

When it comes to sophistry, who can outwit a fool's joke?

If you insist on linking the future of the world with these vague and unreal things, who can refute that?

Zhen Xin seemed to see the scene of Cheng Shi saying goodbye to her again, and she sighed helplessly:

"Letting you be yourself doesn't mean letting you constantly court disaster."

Have you ever thought about what would happen if you...?

"No!"

Cheng Shi's answer was resolute.

Everyone's expression was solemn, thinking that Cheng Shi had another trick up his sleeve. Only Zhen Xin knew that Cheng Shi's trick was none other than their benefactor who had faked his death and escaped!

Whether the Joker's insistence on personally linking the fire was due to some messy worldly entanglement... is hard to say, but he definitely wanted to go to the real universe to look for [deception].

Thinking of this, Zhen Xin sighed again and said nothing more. She felt that no one could stop Cheng Shicheng from going.

Seeing that everyone remained silent, Cheng Shi smiled and said:

"Don't worry, someone will bring me back."

You must have faith in what is destined, for he has never lost his way in the vortex of fate.
