Chapter 2885 - 2886: Even if Everything Is an Illusion, You Are the Sole Reality

Chapter 2885: Chapter 2886: Even if Everything Is an Illusion, You Are the Sole Reality

If not for the strong suppression of these fragments, relying solely on his own strength, he would first have to break the fragment’s power of words becoming reality.

Speaking of which, it is necessary to introduce the power of these fragments, starting from the one in Yun Lingxuan’s hand. Each piece has a different strength.

But if we talk about the strongest in terms of destructive power, it would be the current fragment.

After all, the power of words becoming reality is an almost unsolvable Rule Power.

This can be seen from when Xue An annihilated Jia Zijie with a single word.

Xue An thought quietly for a long time, before finally collecting his thoughts and descending onto the square.

By now, the people of the Hundred Benevolence Store had been completely swept away, leaving only Shu Jingchu following him, with no one else around.

Therefore, these elves were not too panicked but instead looked at Xue An with curiosity.

These elves had already learned of the previous plan through various means, so they had little barrier against Xue An.

On the contrary, his actions attracted many grateful and curious glances.

At this moment, Vila separated from the crowd and came before Xue An, formally offering a grand gesture.

"Thank you for saving my tribe from water and fire, my lord!"

Xue An smiled gently, "No need to thank me. It was just a convenient act, why talk of gratitude?"

Despite his words, Vila’s respect and gratitude did not diminish in the slightest.

Moreover, not only her, but the other members of the Elf Race also understood that Xue An had just done a huge favor for the entire Elf Race, so they all paid respects.

Xue An merely smiled at this, without making much of a statement.

Instead, Shu Jingchu seemed a little nervous.

Because it was her first time receiving such a formal thank you.

As she was always following Xue An, the elves assumed she was Xue An’s maid servant, so they were also very respectful to her.

This left Shu Jingchu feeling a bit at a loss.

However, her awkwardness was soon alleviated.

For at this moment, the Elf Queen parted from the crowd and came before the two of them.

"Great warrior, first I thank you on behalf of the entire Elf Race for everything you have done. If you wouldn’t mind, please accompany me to the Royal Court for a talk!"

Even Xue An had to show enough respect to this white-haired Elf Queen, nodding and saying.

"It would be my honor!"

Then, the two followed the footsteps of this scepter-wielding Elf Queen to the Royal Court located under the Elf Mother Tree.

Though called a Royal Court, it is actually a hollow on the trunk of the Mother Tree. Upon entering, the abundance of wood Spiritual Energy was extraordinarily pleasing.

Xue An, however, did not pay attention to these, instead calmly watching the Elf Queen, waiting for her words.

Sure enough.

The Elf Queen hardly hesitated and naturally said.

"Great warrior, you have done a great favor to our Elf Race, but what do you require?"

Xue An shook his head with a smile, "I had told Lisa and Vila before, I have deep ties with your Elf Race, so when facing such a predicament I naturally decided to assist. As for requirements, I hadn’t really thought about them!"

In fact, Vila had already said these words to the Elf Queen, but she had to make this statement, otherwise, it would be extremely disrespectful.

At least for the Elf Race, it is perceived as such.

After hearing Xue An’s words, this Elf Queen nodded and then said to Xue An.

"Great warrior, you seem very concerned about that fragment!"

Xue An’s heart tightened, knowing the crucial moment had arrived, he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, because this object is extremely important to me, have you seen it?"

The Elf Queen shook her head, "We have not seen this item, but there was once a Prophet in our tribe who predicted its existence!"

"Oh? What prophecy?"

Xue An immediately showed great interest.

"When I was young, the Great Sage in our tribe once received a divine revelation from the Mother Deity, telling her that in the near future, our tribe would face a great calamity, and afterward, a great warrior would descend to end it all!"

"This great warrior wields a terrible weapon, its power so great that it could end the Multiverse Realms!"

"At the time I received this prophecy, I didn’t think much of it, but until today, I realized all of this was the destined path!"

Although these words from the Elf Queen seemed ordinary, they stirred up a tempest in Xue An’s heart.

Because he suddenly remembered what Shu Jingchu had once told him.

She said she was originally just an ordinary girl from a plane, but by coincidence, she was sent into the Palace of Light by a boy whose identity and origin were unknown.

At that time, Xue An was curious about the boy’s background.

He even suspected that everything he had experienced might be a plot casually arranged by certain existences.

But this guess was so astonishing that Xue An never spoke of it to anyone.

Until this time, the Elf Queen’s words once again pushed Xue An to that terrifying realm.

If deities had long ago prophesied his arrival.

Then what do all his previous experiences count for?

A script arranged by some unknown existences?

This terrifying thought made Xue An’s complexion increasingly grave, and for the first time, he felt deep helplessness.

Throughout his cultivation path, Xue An had always forged ahead, fearless, never afraid of anyone or anything.

Even when confronting the unknown evil, Xue An never flinched.

But today, Xue An suddenly felt chills rising from his heart.

If everything is an arranged script, then what is he?

A pathetic pawn in someone else’s story?

Perhaps because of Xue An’s grave expression, the Elf Queen paused.

After a long time, the Elf Queen slowly remarked, "Great warrior, you seem to be lost in confusion!"

Xue An took a deep breath, "Indeed, I am feeling quite lost now!"

"I understand your feelings; does it feel like everything has been secretly predetermined, and there’s no more interest in anything?"

"Yes!" Xue An replied with difficulty.

"There’s no need for that, because the Mother Deity clearly stated that what she saw is merely one small stream among countless currents of destiny. It’s possible none of it will happen, or you might not even appear!"

"Even if there’s an invisible giant hand manipulating everything in the shadows, it isn’t all-powerful!"

"Destiny may be predetermined, but self-will decides everything!"

These words seemed to strike Xue An like a lightning bolt, and he stood still for a long while, eventually nodding.

"I’ve learned, esteemed Mother!"

As if anticipating that Xue An would see through her identity, the Elf Queen chuckled.

"Great warrior, I cannot see through your destiny, so you can confidently and boldly forge ahead. Even if this world is a carefully arranged script, you can be the most unexpected variable!"
