Some people are alive, but they are dead.

Some people die, but they can live forever.

These two sentences are probably a true portrayal of Lu Shi's current situation.

……

If you choose to stay in the world that Dickens weaves.

Lu Shi in the real world is naturally completely dead.

But in this world, Lu Shi can live forever with his family, as well as relatives and friends.

……

And if you leave this side of the world.

Although Lu Shi is alive in the real world, he has lost everything.

When Lu even doesn't remember himself, what's the difference between him and death?

Faced with Dickens's soul torture, Lu Shi, who had just woken up, fell into confusion again.

……

"Lu Shi, there are not many opportunities for people to decide their own destiny in this life."

"And now, I'm giving you the opportunity to decide your own fate."

"With Mr. Lu's cleverness, he should have known that he had become a pawn in the hands of others."

"But after all, you don't know much about the otherworld, and it's probably hard to understand your current state."

"As an old friend who has been with you for so long, I will give you another chance to know the truth."

……

Although I hope that Lu Shi chooses to stay here forever.

But Dickens was not in a hurry, nor would he persecute, but laid out the facts and reasoned with Lu Shi.

Because he knew very well that his plan could only succeed if Lu Shi made a decision voluntarily.

What Dickens has to do now is to let Lu know "how cruel and desperate the real world is." ”

……

"Mr. Lu, allow me to introduce myself again."

"I am the true inheritance of the Heavenly Witch Spell Academy, a dependant of Dickens under the command of Chen Qi, the Viscount of the Tongtian Empire!"

"The latter, Mr. Lu, should be very clear about the gold content."

"As for the former, Teacher Lu only needs to know that the Heavenly Witch Spell Academy is the leader of the Inner World, one of the top ten overlords."

Dickens made an introduction unhurriedly, and Lu Shi was really shocked.

……

Ordinary people can not know the inner world, but they will definitely not know the Tongtian Empire.

After all, it was once the number one power in the human world.

The real viscount of that empire definitely belongs to the big people who only exist in legends.

……

"I have read Mr. Lu's biography."

"Although Mr. Lu has hidden a lot of content, it is not difficult for us to find out everything."

"The turning point in Mr. Lu's life should be that he met a group of very strange guys and signed a soul contract with them."

"Then Teacher Lu crossed to Angsa City for the first time."

"What I'm going to tell you now is that the soul contract is valid."

"And those who signed the contract with you are not humans at all, but the Skull and Bones Society."

Dickens knew a lot about Lu Shi's past, and then gave him a detailed introduction to the Skull and Bones Society.

Dickens didn't say too much bad things about skeletons, but just listed a few tragic events that have been quite sensational in the last hundred years, which is enough for Lu Shi to understand what kind of goods skeletons are.

……

"In short, Mr. Lu, the reason why you have amnesia."

"It's because your soul power is being stolen, and you're being covered."

"Now you are only one step away from being completely replaced."

"According to my calculations, even if you don't kill yourself, restart."

"As long as you stay in the city of Angsa for a long time, you will gradually lose yourself."

"So Mr. Lu, even if you leave here, even if you kill me out of Angsa City, everything you have lost cannot be recovered."

"You are destined to be replaced."

As he spoke, Dickens began to feel a little "sympathetic" for Lu Shi.

How can pie fall from the sky?

Everything Lu Shi has lost now is paying for his previous brilliant life.

……

"Dickens, although I have no proof, I know you didn't lie to me this time."

"So that's the price of selling your soul!"

"Thank you so much for not being a fool!"

At the beginning, hearing Dickens's revelations, Lu Shi was shocked and angry.

But gradually, he calmed down.

……

Because Lu Shi's instinct told him that what Dickens said was true.

Even he himself was aware of this, but he didn't face the cruel truth.

But now, he has to face it.

……

"Dickens, do I really have no third way to go?"

"I can cooperate with you, as long as you can save my life!"

Lu Shi's gaze lingered on Qingqing for a long time, but in the end he was still unwilling.

……

Recognizing the truth, of course, he doesn't want to deceive himself and live in such an illusory world forever.

But being replaced in the real world is also unacceptable to him.

So he pinned his hopes on Dickens and the Imperial Viscount behind him.

Maybe there will be a miracle?

……

Dickens, however, shook his head firmly.

"Lu Shi, it's impossible!"

"From the moment you sign the soul contract, you are destined to be a pawn."

"Either be replaced by someone else, or be killed by us in advance."

"There is no third way at all."

"How can all good things fall on you in this world?"

Dickens was extremely cruel to break all Lu Shi's luck and let him face reality.

This time, Lu Shi finally couldn't hold back.

……

"No, I'm not reconciled!"

"I'm an idol in the hearts of the world, and I'm a man called the god of comics."

"There shouldn't be a word for failure in my life."

"The plot shouldn't be like this, it should be me [Fisherman Profit] and go to the pinnacle of life."

"How can reality be so [unreasonable], I am the protagonist of the world."

Lu Shi, who had always maintained his composure, completely broke the defense.

……

Perhaps due to past success.

Or maybe it's because I've been working on it for a long time.

Lu has long developed self-centeredness and firmly believes that he is the protagonist on the world stage.

……

Crossing into Angsa City, he has been regarded by Lu Shi as a [new starting point] for his life to go further.

He has completed his leveling in the human world, and of course he has to change to a new map and enter the transcendent world.

But now, the harsh reality tells Lu Shi.

Not only is he not the main character, but he is not even a supporting role.

……

He's just a passerby, and he's the kind that's about to come to an end.

With such a huge gap, it's no wonder that Lu can accept it calmly.

However, as Dickens said, Lu Shi did not have a third option at all.

As for [Fisherman's Profit], it's even more of a joke.

……

He's just a mere mortal who knows nothing, what can he do to fight the old foxes of the inner world?

More insidious, he is inferior to the Skull Society.

Compared to age, he is not as good as [Superman].

As for luck, can he surpass the Viscount of the Empire?

……

"Lu Shi, you should feel honored."

"Because you met us, you met the great Viscount of the Empire."

"Otherwise, you won't even have a chance to make a choice now."

"So, Mr. Lu, how do you choose?"

Looking at Lu Shi, who had completely broken the defense, Dickens felt that the heat was enough.

Only complete despair and cut off all luck.

It is possible for Lu even to embrace the "false world", choose to sink into it, and turn it into reality.

……

And Lu Shi's reaction was as Dickens expected.

He looked around the world with great greed, and finally fixed his gaze on Qingqing.

After hesitating again and again, Lu Shi finally gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"I choose ......"

……

The moment Lu Shi made his decision, he froze.

Lu Shi's final decision may have been spoken.

But at the moment of exit, it was frozen and not transmitted to Dickens's perception.

……

And it was not only Lu Shi who was frozen.

On the contrary, with Lu Shi as the center, a force is spreading.

Everywhere it goes, everything is frozen.

Even Dickens did not escape.

However, in the moment of being frozen, Dickens saw through the origin of that power.

Lu Shi was "occupied", and some people were anxious and chose to end up in person.

……

"Juggernaut, I still haven't been able to complete the task you gave me after all!"

That was Dickens' last thought, and then he froze completely.

This freezing force seems to be issued from Lu Shi's origin.

It seems to only happen in the world woven by Dickens.

However, the truth is that the entire city of Onsa is frozen.

Or rather, it has stagnated.

……

The battle between Lu Shi and Dickens was about to be decided at the moment when the winner was about to be decided.

Suspended!

It's a big break in the rules.

And the only one who can do this kind of thing can be the real mastermind behind Onsa City, [Superman].

……

"Well, I knew it was going to be like this."

"How can there be fairness in competing on other people's turf?"

"There are few people in the world who pay attention to fairness and justice like Viscount Ben."

On the Nantian Gate, Chen Qi, who had been paying attention to the [Legend of Purgatory] all the time, let out a sigh.

……

Although the other party broke the rules and made a trick.

But it's really inconvenient for Chen Qi to make a move, after all, the entire spiritual dimension has become a mess.

Chen Qi has received a new task here, and he will do his best to monitor the [Reincarnation Realm].

……

[Reincarnation Realm] is the world where the spiritual dimension suddenly shines with golden light at the time of the collapse of the Heavenly Demons.

And it itself, naturally, is a golden spiritual world.

In the spiritual dimension, although there are billions of spiritual worlds.

But the number of golden spiritual worlds is actually not much.

After all, what is needed to achieve the golden spiritual world is an enduring heat.

……

This is enduring, spanning at least 3,000 years.

It has become a certain custom and cultural phenomenon, which is incomparably closely integrated with human civilization.

And even in the golden spiritual world, the [Reincarnation Realm] is also an incomparably special one.

Because it is related to the myths and legends of the human world about reincarnation.

Its existence time is beyond imagination, and I am afraid that it will be measured in 10,000 years.

……

Just when the Heavenly Demon collapsed, the Demon Punishment Alliance was planning to launch a major counterattack against the Heavenly Demon.

Unexpectedly, the [Reincarnation Realm] suddenly burst into golden light, directly illuminating tens of millions of spiritual worlds.

With such a mutation, it's hard not to think of the cruel words released before the vain.

They will "attack" some golden spiritual world.

Could it be that the vains not only had the audacity to do it, but also chose the incomparably special golden spiritual world of the [Reincarnation Realm]?

……

But how is this possible?

Even if the Voids really intended to attack the [Reincarnation Realm], it would not be possible to attack it so suddenly.

It is also impossible for humans not to receive the news in advance.

Otherwise, wouldn't those traitors eat dry food?

With Bloss's current "admiration" for Chen Qi, if the vains join forces to attack the golden spiritual world.

It is impossible not to report to Chen Qi.

……

But the [Reincarnation Realm] reacted so violently, something must have happened.

And the timing is so coincidental.

It is absolutely inseparable from falsehood.

……

The moment the [Reincarnation Realm] changed, Chen Qi received an order.

Let it observe how much vanity there is, in the siege there.

Obviously, the Demon Punishment League also made the same judgment.

……

However, the strange thing is that when the golden light converged, Chen Qi didn't see a single delusion around the golden star.

Subconsciously, Chen Qi couldn't help but wonder if his eyes had deteriorated.

How could it be that there was no vanity.

……

But even though Chen Qi withdrew the eye that looked at the boundary between the void and the real, his eyes stared hard at the [Reincarnation Realm].

But they still did not see any vanity.

Chen Qi is extremely convinced, with his own eyesight, with his own understanding of falsehood.

If it is a large-scale gathering of falsehoods, it is absolutely impossible not to find it.

……

The current situation can only show that outside the [Reincarnation Realm], there is no false siege.

But that's weird!

Where have the vains gone?

Could it be that he has entered the [Reincarnation Realm]?

……

But how is this possible?

If it is one or two, it is possible to quietly break into the golden spiritual world.

But once there are too many of them, this is impossible.

After all, the golden spiritual world has already given birth to world consciousness, and its reaction power and defense power are not comparable to the silver-white spiritual world at all.

……

As for one or two vain intruders into the [Reincarnation Realm], it is really to send them to death.

The terrifying golden spiritual world can easily kill them.

Although he was puzzled, Chen Qi still reported his observations.

……

This kind of troublesome matter will be investigated by the Demon Punishment Alliance.

Even if there is a vanity that has broken into the golden spiritual world.

With Chen Qi's eyesight, he couldn't see it at all.

Because the golden spiritual world would instinctively resist Chen Qi's observation, Chen Qi could only see a piece of golden light.

……

Although there has been a change in the [Reincarnation Realm].

But the great counterattack of human beings against the Heavenly Demons only paused for a while.

After Chen Qi's observation report was uploaded, the stalled counteroffensive continued.

The Heavenly Demons were directly beaten and lost their armor.

……

But it didn't last long.

Very suddenly, many teams that were chasing and killing the Heavenly Demon suddenly received new instructions.

This instruction is very strange, it is actually for them to "suppress" one spiritual world after another.

More precisely, it is to suppress those spiritual worlds that have been shrouded in the golden light of the reincarnation realm.

There seems to be a problem within those spiritual worlds, and they have begun to "infighting".

……

The "pulling" of a large number of chasing and killing teams immediately gave the Heavenly Demon a chance to breathe.

They are still fleeing, but they are no longer cornered.

It can be said that the human race's plan to take advantage of this counterattack to cut off the two waists of the heavenly demons is doomed to be unrealizable.

At most, you can cut off one.

……

The chasing team was withdrawn, and Chen Qi was not idle here.

He received a new task to closely monitor the [Reincarnation Realm]'s every move.

No matter what kind of existence it is, everything that enters and exits the [Reincarnation Realm] must be recorded.

……

"Senior brother, I'm afraid something big is going to happen this time!"

"That's the [Reincarnation Realm]!"

Gu Yunqing, who had been busy on the other door, finally found time to express his inner shock.

……

Transcendents have always treated "reincarnation" as a joke.

This kind of legend was concocted by an ancient sect to fool ordinary people.

Moreover, reincarnation itself has a long history and has been passed down to many intelligent civilizations.

The theory of that ancient sect is still "plagiarized", no, it is borrowed from some intelligent races.

……

Transcendent beings can regard the idea of "reincarnation" as child's play.

But the golden spiritual world born based on this legend cannot be underestimated.

After all, it can already have an impact on the real world.

……

"Senior, there is a tall man on top when the sky falls."

"Based on my observations, there may be something wrong with the Samsara Realm."

"We can't do this kind of thing, just be worthy of our salary."

Chen Qi is so busy now that he doesn't want to do much at all.

In fact, [Reincarnation Realm], Chen Qi had been in contact with it before.

But not in the spiritual dimension, but on the Isle of Ascension.

……

When he was on Shengxian Island, Chen Qi had a conflict with Yun Ze of the Reincarnation Dao.

The latter used the Eye of Reincarnation to directly trap Chen Qi's consciousness in the [Reincarnation Realm].

Now that I think about it, what Yun Ze was inducing at that time may be the power of the [Reincarnation Realm] of the spiritual dimension.

The golden spirit world is already capable of having an impact on the real world.

It makes sense that the path of reincarnation can make use of this.

……

To be honest, Chen Qi is still quite interested in the [Reincarnation Realm].

After all, it is not only a golden world, but also means "reincarnation".

This is all new knowledge.

However, Chen Qi still has a big trouble that is no less than the golden spiritual world, and he has to deal with it.

……

The real world, at the moment when the city of Onsa was frozen.

Chen Qi also began to act.

Chen Qi just made a move inconveniently on the Nantian Gate.

But in the real world, he has long been prepared for his opponent to "not talk about martial arts".

Since the opponent suspended the game, then don't blame the Imperial Viscount for "hurting people with hidden arrows".

……

"45% completeness."

"Hey, I've raised you for so long, you must not drop the chain at a critical moment."

In the spaceship laboratory, Chen Qi once again took out the golden immortal cells.

At this time, the immortal cells have solidified into the appearance of the blood-winged golden cicada.

This is the extraordinary golden bloodline in the immortal cell, which is becoming more and more complete.

……

"This is the pen that Mr. Lu used in his last creation!"

"Come on, eat it."

"Help us draw a successful end to Mr. Lu's life."

"As a mortal, he can die under the curse of the extraordinary golden bloodline, and it is not in vain that he can die!"

Chen Qi casually stuffed a paintbrush into the mouth of the blood-winged golden cicada.

……

The activation of the Extraordinary Golden Bloodline [Death Curse] requires the possession of the cursed.

After reaching 45% completeness, this time span has been magnified to 45 years.

The brushes that Chen Qi asked people to take from Lu Shi have only been separated from Lu Shi for a few months, which is completely applicable.
