Open up and break into another world

Boom!

The flames on Wu Yan's body connected with the sky.

Immediately afterward, Xu Ming saw that within this microcosm, and even throughout this entire Chaos World, all the members of the Floating Life Sect were engulfed in raging flames; moreover, all the flames shot towards the sky, eventually merging and converging into a massive pillar of fire, directly piercing into the endless chaos.

Xu Ming's divine sense expanded, enveloping billions of realms, yet he was astonished to discover that this massive pillar of fire instantly shot out of the range of his divine sense—such methods clearly shouldn't be possessed by a mere force within a small Chaos World.

"What's going on?" Xu Ming couldn't help but feel puzzled. "Could it be because of Hong Ling'er? What he meant by 'found' was finding Hong Ling'er?"

Xu Ming looked at Hong Ling'er again, only to find that the aura around Hong Ling'er had undergone earth-shattering changes! It had become… incomparably transcendent!

"This is…" Xu Ming's eyes widened instantly. "Gu Hanmo!!"

Yes, Xu Ming was absolutely certain that this was Gu Hanmo's temperament, not Hong Ling'er's! —He saw her lightly brush across the void, and ripples like waves appeared in the void. As the ripples surged, dozens of experts from the Spring Joy Sect nearby were reduced to dust.

Then, her gaze turned towards Xu Ming's direction, revealing a hint of a smile: "Xu Ming!"

Xu Ming felt as if struck by lightning, his whole body trembling. He was filled with disbelief, yet also anticipation: "Hanmo?"

"What do you think?" Gu Hanmo asked rhetorically, then smiled and said, "It seems I have to stay in this Chaos World for a little while!"

Stay?

Xu Ming could tell that Gu Hanmo seemed unable to stay for long.

However, being able to meet Gu Hanmo here was already the greatest surprise!

Whoosh!

Gu Hanmo waved her hand, and instantly, darkness enveloped the entire Chaos World, and time itself seemed to freeze.

Throughout the entire Chaos World, clouds no longer moved, raindrops no longer fell, rivers no longer flowed… From the Star Lord above to ordinary mortals and livestock below, all living beings were frozen in time. All the experts of the Floating Life Sect were also frozen.

Only Xu Ming and Gu Hanmo remained outside of the "time stop."

"This…" Seeing Gu Hanmo again, even though Xu Ming's strength had greatly increased, he was still shocked by Gu Hanmo's methods—even the "Supreme Realm" experts that Xu Ming had seen couldn't display such methods as Gu Hanmo.

Clearly, Gu Hanmo was definitely an extremely powerful existence among Supremes!

Ordinary Supremes were vastly different from Gu Hanmo!

In Xu Ming's eyes, it felt like tens of thousands of years had passed!

"Your strength has improved greatly; you've even comprehended the 'Imagination Realm'!" Gu Hanmo praised, "Moreover, you've comprehended… the 'Dao of Nothingness'? This is a path that's almost impossible to 'Attain True Self' on, but… I hope you can succeed!"

Almost impossible…

Which meant there was a sliver of possibility.

Xu Ming had heard that no one had ever succeeded in attaining enlightenment on the "Dao of Nothingness"; however, Gu Hanmo had a much broader perspective than Xu Ming and knew that there was actually one person who had succeeded!

Moreover… only one person had ever succeeded!

If Xu Ming could succeed, he would be the second!

"Hanmo, what is this…?" Xu Ming took a step and arrived in front of Gu Hanmo. "Reincarnation again?"

"Reincarnation?" Gu Hanmo shook her head and smiled. "I wouldn't dare to reincarnate casually!"

Xu Ming didn't know that reincarnation was a method only used in the most desperate situations, and the price was extremely high! Like Gu Hanmo, if she hadn't met Xu Ming back then, she might not have even been able to awaken her memories from her previous life; in that case, she would have quietly dissipated in the river of time.

"This is my incarnation!" Gu Hanmo said.

"Incarnation?" Xu Ming looked puzzled.

"Where should I begin?" Gu Hanmo pulled Xu Ming over and sat down on a mountaintop; clearly, she was considering how to explain her experiences in a way that Xu Ming could understand.

"Xu Ming, do you know that this endless chaos is not everything in the universe!" Gu Hanmo said.

"I know!" Xu Ming nodded.

Once, Xu Ming thought that the endless chaos was the entire universe; however, after his horizons broadened, he discovered that this wasn't the case!—The endless chaos that Xu Ming was currently in was actually just one realm in the universe, the Divine Phoenix Realm!

"Then it will be much easier to explain!" Gu Hanmo thought for a moment and said, "The universe, 'Yu,' is the four directions, up and down; 'Zhou,' is the past and present! The universe encompasses all space and time! All things cannot transcend the operating rules of the universe!"

Xu Ming listened quietly. Of course, he harbored doubts about these words in his heart—was the cheat system transcending the operating rules of the universe?

Gu Hanmo continued, "The entire universe can be divided into three parts: the True Universe, the False Universe, and the Chaotic Frontier!—The True Universe has only one world; while the False Universe contains countless billions of worlds! Everything in the False Universe is false, like a 'projection'! A stone in the True Universe, when projected into the False Universe, might become endless chaos…"

"This…" Xu Ming was stunned for a long time.

With great difficulty, Xu Ming asked in disbelief: "Are you saying… everything in the endless chaos is just an illusion?"

Like a movie being played.

"Yes!" Gu Hanmo said, "You are illusory, this world is illusory, and the entire endless chaos is illusory! Even now, the me you see is illusory!"

"This…" Xu Ming found it difficult to accept and understand; he even began to doubt his own existence—do I exist, or do I not exist at all?

"Precisely because it's illusory, sometimes, even the entire history of the endless chaos can be directly altered!" Gu Hanmo added, "For example, you should have been to the previous Chaos Epoch, right? I can sense the aura of traversing the 'River of Time' on you!—The previous Chaos Epoch you went to is a completely different history from the real previous Chaos Epoch! This is because, in the illusory world, the past is easily distorted!"

Even Realm Lords couldn't tell if someone had traversed the River of Time!

But in Gu Hanmo's eyes, Xu Ming was like someone who had just come out of the river, with "river water" still dripping from him.

"However…" Gu Hanmo continued, "The River of Time you traversed can only be called the 'False River of Time'! Only the River of Time in the True Universe can be called the 'True River of Time'!"

Gu Hanmo's words left Xu Ming bewildered for a long time, and then he asked in confusion: "Then… do I exist?"

Xu Ming couldn't figure out whether he truly existed or was just a false illusion.
