Chapter 572: “Is It a Coincidence?” (2/2)

”I don't seem to remember anything out of place or important about him.”

”The Ghost Realm already has a deity controlling it, but from the current looks, it does not seem as if the deity has any intentions of helping this world prosper.”

Xue Wei had not expected that there would be anyone who would bother to own this realm, and he felt more and more perplexed.

”Actually, this person might have been the real cause for the realm to look like this now.”

Xue Wei suddenly realized some things which had puzzled him before.

”The Black Turtle Clan created the Ghost Realm for the sake of helping those who died to continue existing in this world, but there is a limit to one's cultivation in this world.

”If the Black Turtle Clan truly wished to help, they should have done their utmost to support these ghosts in becoming deities, as they would then be able to come to life once more.

”However, the laws are very strict, and throughout the past ten thousand years, it has not been possible for anyone to ascend from this Ghost Realm.”

Lan suddenly caught an important message in Xue Wei's words.

”Did you say that it is roughly ten thousand years since no one has ascended?”

”Yes. I asked about this before, and the legends tell that long ago, if one reached a high enough rank, then they could break apart the wall of this realm and leave.”

Lan's brows furrowed even further than previously, and he could not help but think that things were far too coincidental.

”Mo Lian died around ten thousand years ago. When she died, I was in a panic to get her back, but after knowing that the Ghost Realm was impossible to enter without a Rulebreaker, I have been looking for one for ten thousand years.

”The fact that I have been searching for a Rulebreaker is no secret, and many know my purpose for looking for one.

”If it was possible for Ghosts to ascend back into the cultivation world previously, then it might be intentional that the realm suddenly got shut off from the rest of the universe, but this theory will only make sense if the one who took control of the world was aware of or planned on your existence.”

Xue Wei frowned deeply. He had previously felt as if he was a puppet, but he had never been completely certain.

Even with this theory, he could not be sure, but he knew that if anyone was silently controlling things from the shadows, then that person was far too horrifying as he was able to plan so many years in advance.
