Strong people will say that fate is in their own hands, but they often ignore the nature of fate.
Destiny is the footprint of history, the shadow of the steps that the giants of history have taken. People repeat everything in the shadow. They are full of confidence in their future. They always think that everything they do is their own decision, and Destiny has nothing to do with it.
In fact, no matter what people do, they just follow the trajectory of history and can never escape the arrangement of fate.
When the outer gods faced failure, they just blamed themselves for not having enough strength. No one thought that they were created by the ancient gods. Of course, the origin of everything comes from the ancient gods. If they want to defy fate, they must first give up their lives.
History is repeating, and after each repetition, a special substance will exist in the minds of those who have experienced history, and that is the blurred memory gap, whether it is something that happened in the distant past, or a trance from the future. , these will undergo substantial changes in the mind, from hazy nothingness to substantial memory, and will wonderfully show the role of fate in history.
Still on the bank of the River of Illusion, Lin Feng felt that there seemed to be a gap in his memory. Many memories that should not exist suddenly appeared. Lin Feng even doubted whether those memories were real.
Infinitely tall rocky peaks, lightning-thundering sky, endless sea, and crumbling stars in the sky. This is the scene that Qinglan Jia'e has seen for Lin Feng. After coming out of the River of Illusion, this scene becomes more real and the specific details can be clearer. However, this time the angle is no longer from the bottom up, but from the bottom up. Looking down from above, a vague feeling of being proud of everything comes from the heart, as if everything is very small under his feet. Even rocky peaks tens of thousands of miles high still cannot block Lin Feng's sight. All Everything is revealed under the drive of one's own will.
"Lin Feng, what's wrong with you? Why did you become in a daze after coming out of the River of Illusion? Is it possible that the River of Illusion has bad side effects on the human body? But your body now has exceeded the limits of human beings. It should not be a virus. Something like that. Besides, Lin Xiaobao is fine. Could it be that you were hit by some kind of spell? The Illusory River is a place we don’t understand. To ensure safety, let’s go back to the base and check up on our health.”
Dong Wu was very worried about Lin Feng's body. Lin Xiaobao on the side also discovered something was wrong. After coming out of the River of Illusion, many miscellaneous memory fragments appeared in his mind. Although he had not experienced it, it was very real. As if I have really experienced it personally, there are still some unusual energies that are constantly being stimulated. A hot flame is burning strongly in my heart, as if it is going to burn out the original energy and memory in the body, making it suddenly appear. New energy and memories take over the body.
"Lin Feng, where is the River of Illusion? Why have I never heard of it? It will only take three years for the apocalypse to appear. All the anecdotes during this period will appear in the databases of various bases. There is no record of this River of Illusion. , if it existed before the apocalypse, it shouldn't be able to control our bodies. Is there anything different here that we have overlooked? If so, should we go in and check it out again? "
Although Lin Xiaobao didn't say anything just now, his body still showed symptoms. Different from Lin Feng's, Lin Xiaobao seemed to have mutated. The strong uneasiness occupied his reason, and he even said it unknowingly, which made Lin Xiaobao unknowingly speak out. Dong Wu also heard it clearly.
"Xiaobao, your body has also changed? Is the effect of the Illusory River so obvious? I thought it would take a long time for you to awaken."
Hearing Dong Wu say this, Lin Feng and Lin Xiaobao couldn't believe it. They looked at Dong Wu with surprised eyes. Dong Wu around him had no strange energy, and no extra external soul invaded his body. , it can only show that Dong Wu is indeed the real Dong Wu, but he has his own ideas.
"Dong Wu, what are you talking about? What do you mean by this? What does it mean for us to awaken? Do you know about the River of Illusion? How do you know!"
The more Lin Feng talked, the less he dared to say it. He was afraid that all this had something to do with Dong Wu, and that the person who had been operating behind the scenes was actually his good brother Dong Wu.
Lin Feng has experienced so many things recently that he has not noticed that these things have one thing in common. Whether it is the war between the orcs and the underground world, or the traitor incident in his base, these all revolve around Lin Feng. Everything happens. They can all have a relationship with Lin Feng, which means that these things are planned by the people around Lin Feng, and they are the people who are with Lin Feng at all times.
There are only two people who fit this category, one is Dong Wu and the other is Lin Xiaobao.
Lin Xiaobao came into contact later. If he planned the incident, what happened before meeting Lin Xiaobao cannot be explained. Moreover, there is no need for Lin Xiaobao to meet Lin Feng, just stay behind the scenes.
Another suspicious person is Dong Wu. He has been in contact with Lin Feng for the longest time, and when Lin Feng traveled to the end of the world, the first person to save his life was Dong Wu. The only person who allowed him to come into contact with crystals and become a cultivator was He can do it. Dong Wu was involved in everything after taking over the base, and Dong Wu even managed to go unnoticed by anyone. His energy is not the highest, and he is not famous for his abilities or skills. It's a record, but it's such a person. Everyone remembers him, but everyone also doesn't remember him.
Now that Dong Wu has said this, it is obvious that Dong Wu is the most likely, but why did he do this
"The River of Illusion is ours. It was created by you, Lin Feng. His mission is to force you to awaken in an emergency, so that we can get rid of all the traitors in the shortest time."
Dong Wu's current expression was completely different from his original one, but the posture of a strong man with countless experiences. It was this posture that made Lin Feng and Lin Xiaobao feel indescribably familiar.
"What does this feel like? Why do I really want to see that black palace tens of thousands high in the sky? It feels so familiar, like home, or the feeling of a destination. There is something under the mountain that I really want to see. Something that makes me sad and angry, what is that?"
Lin Xiaobao was greatly stimulated, his will was constantly weakening, the special energy in his body was occupying him little by little, and the familiar feeling that could not be expressed was quickly filling his heart.
"Dong Wu, you were the first to awaken, right? From the moment your soul awakened, no, it should have been before I traveled to this space, right? You had already used space overlapping points to let the zombies find me. , after determining my specific location, you let me travel here. Lin Xiaobao has actually been in this space, right? The reason why he has the memory of the original world is because he used the body of a zombie to find me, but the space The energy fluctuations at the intersection point made Lin Xiaobao's extremely easy to deviate, and even the whole person forgot his original state and fell into a sealed form. Your purpose is to awaken me, but there is just more Lin Xiaobao, so your plan Not all the incidents are against us, most of them just bring Lin Xiaobao along with them. From this, we can judge, what is your true identity, and who are we?"
Lin Feng's memory now also has gaps. The changes in his body are not as fast as Lin Xiaobao's because Lin Feng has absorbed too much energy from zombies. The energy of low-level creatures like zombies seems to be able to restrain the effects of the River of Illusion. Dong Wu does not have this. It was expected, but he still calmly waited for Lin Feng to wake up.
Dong Wu in front of him seemed to have changed. Lin Feng could feel in a daze that Dong Wu's soul had undergone a qualitative change, from a human soul to a high-level soul that did not belong to humans. His energy was also gradually strengthening. In just half a minute, it surpassed Lin Feng's current energy, and it was still increasing.
"Lin Feng, don't be afraid. Everything will pass. When you wake up again, the truth of everything will be clear. You and Xiaobao will complete their awakening. The three of us will return to our hometown to continue our journey. The traitors have all been punished. You will be punished as you deserve, and the unfinished business will continue, and your wish will be fulfilled by everyone."
Dong Wu's voice gradually became blurry, and Lin Feng's will finally failed to withstand the erosion in his body. His vision turned black, and Lin Feng fell into darkness.
When Lin Feng woke up again, he saw a black palace in front of him. Outside were black clouds like a plain. Looking up, he saw the stars in the sky. It seemed that every star could be called by his name. He was surrounded by familiar energy. It's a familiar feeling, as well as the familiar air and palace.
"Lin Feng, you're awake."
After a short greeting, Lin Feng had already recognized Dong Wu's voice, but Lin Feng did not dare to look back. He knew where the scene was now. He hoped that this was just a dream. He hoped that he was still the ordinary human being. But as long as he turned around, he would After being confirmed as to the authenticity of this place, he could only stand where he was and continue to look up at the starry sky above.
"Where is my home? Can all this be changed? If I go back to an earlier time, can I change the current history?"
Lin Feng thought about the reverse flow of time, and he wanted to use the method of failure to change his destiny, but Lin Feng forgot that destiny is not in anyone's hands, whether it is an alien god or an ancient god, history will not change, but this time, Lin Feng's failure is doomed. No matter how many thousands of years his identity has passed, he will return to the current time period and perfect state.
Destiny cannot be changed, and history still records everything that has happened. Success or failure depends on your own ideas and the approval of others. Lin Feng's time is always in a cycle, and his most loyal friends will still be by his side. Even if time goes against the flow, even if history repeats pain, as long as the three of them are together, it is a fateful choice.
