Chapter 2191: Bigger Mystery Within the Mystery
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Tina very naturally accepted An Lin’s embrace.
More precisely, she wished that An Lin could embrace her for a while longer.
This warmth, this familiar feeling… She felt like she had experienced this sensation a long, long time ago. This was a sensation that she dearly missed and yearned for.
“Giant An Lin, thank you.
“Little Na is very happy to have a real friend in the future.”
A smile finally returned to Tina’s face as she rested her head on An Lin’s shoulder.
An Lin tousled her smooth golden hair and said, “I’ve always been a very, very good friend of yours. Sorry for making you suffer through so much. I’ll definitely find a way to help you recover.”
However, the fairy surprisingly shook her head upon hearing this. She smiled sweetly and said, “It’s okay, that’s all in the past now. Everything will be fine as long as you treat me well and don’t leave me anymore.”
An Lin was momentarily dazed when he saw her beautiful and heartwarming smile.
Little Na was so thoughtful and clever that one couldn’t help but be fond of her.
Little Na is probably rejecting the offer to recover her memory because of how terrifying this world looks, right? She’s afraid that it might bring some misfortune upon me…
“No, you’re extremely important to me, and you have to listen to me regarding this matter,” An Lin said with a determined expression.
As he said this, he used his divine sense to observe Tina’s body again.
Tina was indeed at the G.o.d of Creation Stage. Moreover, her aura showed that she had reached this stage a very long time ago. It could be said that her aura was profound and unfathomable.
However, her power was extremely depleted. In fact, it was entirely exhausted. It was like a dry well that had everything but water.
This was very strange, very extremely strange.
If it weren’t for the linkage between their bloodlines and the familiarity of her appearance and aura, An Lin might have even suspected whether this fairy was truly his Little Na.
An Lin pondered for a moment before trying to tackle things from another angle. “Little Na, is your authority over the Divine Mirror World still intact?”
“Authority over the Divine Mirror World? What’s that?” Tina blinked in confusion.
“…
“You’re not even aware of your authority over the Divine Mirror World? Then how did you traverse to my world to rescue me? And you even escaped from the pursuit of the Supreme Heavenly G.o.ds?”
“I mysteriously detected your location, and then I shattered the barrier between the two worlds with no regard for anything else. I then dragged you into my world without any hesitation and then shut the pa.s.sageway into my world. I did everything by instinct and was also urged by some sense of danger…”
Tina’s eyes suddenly lit up as she spoke, and she said, “Giant An Lin, you’re indeed a very important person to me! Otherwise, I wouldn’t have done all that for you!”
Right now, she was even more certain of this man’s importance to her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have felt such a strong urge to meet him and drag him into the Divine Mirror World.
“Did it all by instinct…” An Lin fell deep into thought before saying, “Your ability to open and close a two-realm pa.s.sageway proves that you still possess the authority of the Divine Mirror World. Or perhaps you possess a portion of this authority. It’s just that you’ve forgotten how to use it…
“Let’s go, Little Na. Show me around the Divine Mirror World. I’ll see if there’s any way to help you recover your memory.”
An Lin felt that recovering Tina’s memory was the most important task right now. All of the mysteries would be solved once Tina recovered her memory.
Tina naturally wouldn’t reject An Lin’s request. With a flap of her wings, she carried An Lin into the sky of the Divine Mirror World. They then flew from north to south, then from east to west.
The Divine Mirror World was gigantic.
However, all that An Lin saw was an endless expanse of desert. Apart from that, there were only the ancient ruins that had almost been entirely buried under the sand.
What stunned him the most was the ruins of human civilization. This was a place of culture and tradition. There stood numerous towering and magnificent structures that soared into the sky, and these were manmade structures that he couldn’t help but marvel at. In fact, some of the machines that didn’t require power were still running at this moment.
However, just like the cities of the other tribes, there was absolutely no sign of life in this place.
All of the intelligent lifeforms were completely devoid of life. Like the members of the Light Wing Clan that An Lin had previously seen, they had all been transformed into some kind of hard and stone-like statue.
Despair and desolation were the main themes of this world.
It was difficult to imagine that Tina had wandered around this world after losing her memory. All that she could see was despair and desolation. She had been the lone intelligent lifeform in this world. What kind of experience had that been?
Every single intelligent lifeform had been transformed into a stone statue, regardless of what tribe they belonged to. However, An Lin also discovered something strange. That was, there were only very few petrified beings in each city.
Among cities that should have housed tens of millions of beings, he could only find a measly several hundred petrified beings. So, where had the other beings gone? Had they vanished into thin air? Or had their corpses already been reduced to ashes and dust by the endless sandstorms?
Upon closer inspection of this world, An Lin discovered that the number of mysteries was only becoming greater.
He launched a strike into the surrounding air, only to discover that the air here was almost as dense as that of the Tai Chu Continent. This was an astounding discovery.
At the very least, it proved that this world was very close to the level of the Tai Chu Continent.
Several days later.
An Lin arrived at the heart of the Divine Mirror World.
This was also the heart of the boundless desert.
However, he discovered a huge sea here. This sea was a profound pitch-black color, and there were all kinds of high-density currents of energy flowing within it. The entire sea was toxic, and no life could exist in this sea.
Someplace on the sh.o.r.e of this pitch-black sea.
An Lin saw the skeleton of a colossal dragon.
Just the spine of this dragon measured one thousand kilometers in length, forming a giant and undulating mountain range. Even after enduring countless years, the skeleton of this dragon still remained strong and unbreakable.
Upon using his divine sense to observe it, An Lin was stunned to discover that this dragon had actually been at the G.o.d of Creation Stage during its lifetime. What did this prove?
This proved that the cultivation culture of this world had already reached a stage very close to that of the Tai Chu Continent. After all, it had even produced G.o.d of Creation Stage divine beings before. Of all the Great Worlds that An Lin had visited and heard of, this was the first time that he had seen such a powerful Great World!
What on earth had the Divine Mirror World gone through?!
How was such a powerful world destroyed?!
No, this wasn’t the most critical question. The most critical question was, how had the Divine Mirror World gone through so much in just a mere year? Theoretically speaking, progressing to such a powerful state should have implied that the flow of time in this world was very similar to that of the Tai Chu Continent.
An Lin mulled over this question until his head was almost about to explode, yet he still couldn’t find any explanation.
Seeing An Lin’s frustration, Tina hurriedly comforted him by saying, “It doesn’t matter, Giant An Lin. Let’s not think about those things anymore. In fact, what’s happened in the past isn’t important. The important thing is whether Little Na is happy now.”
She extended her smooth and delicate hand to hold onto An Lin’s hand before smiling and saying, “Little Na thinks that living here is also quite nice. I can talk to Giant An Lin, and I can also taste all of the delicacies of this world. I can discover and hunt delicacies like the Furious Sand Marmots!”
An Lin almost spat a mouthful of blood upon hearing this.
Discover and hunt delicacies like the Furious Sand Marmots?
Little Na, what on earth have you experienced in these past years?!
