It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 217 The Dharma Body is Eternal
"Eh? Me?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little dazed. She opened her mouth and asked uncertainly.

Although he knew that Mr. Xia Zhi's sudden approach was not just to inform him or talk about the upcoming festival.

The festival has nothing to do with me on the surface, and I don't need to organize it myself, so there is no need to notify me specifically at the first time.

So there must be some other reason, she thought.

But no one expected that Mr. Xia Zhi would make such a surprising proposal.

"Of course it's you, and you can also add Medusa." Xia Zhi smiled slightly, glanced at the cold and tall beauty standing behind the girl, and said slowly.

"Uh……"

Ritsuka's expression suddenly looked a little strange.

However, she also knew that Mr. Xia Zhi was joking. After all, no matter how you looked at it, he would never let her go to the Seventh Lostbelt alone.

If we really want to take action, Rider must be brought along.

It is estimated that other heroic spirits will also need to be recruited, otherwise, they will not be able to cope with the increasing intensity of the Lostbelt.

She took a deep breath and then began to think seriously.

The fact that Mr. Xia Zhi was going to take action against the Seventh Strange Stories Belt did shock her to some extent, so...what should she do?

If it succeeds, the South American Lostbelt will be absorbed by the British Lostbelt.

In other words, on the surface there may be two Lostbelts left, but in reality there is only one problem left to deal with.

In terms of the number of questions, this is certainly a good thing...

However, in terms of the quality of the questions, this is not necessarily the case...

Although it seems that as long as the British Lostbelt is successfully conquered, all problems will probably be solved, and the South American Lostbelt will no longer exist.

However, if the British Lostbelt were to take control of and annex the South American Lostbelt, the danger level of this Lostbelt would most likely soar to an extremely terrifying level.

She couldn't help but feel conflicted, and at the same time she laughed at herself in her heart...

In fact, it seems that there is nothing to worry about. Judging from the current situation, the danger level in the British Lostbelt has long been out of control.

If we can't even get past this level, then there's no point worrying about the South American Lostbelt...

What's more, there's actually no way for me to influence the overall situation, right?
Fujimaru Ritsuka's heart was somewhat shaken. She could probably understand why Mr. Xia Zhi valued her, but she didn't believe she truly possessed some illusory "destiny"...

"There's no need to rush to answer me. After all, this isn't a trip you can just leave on a whim. I can't make up my mind on a whim."

Xia Zhi spoke in a cheerful tone, seeming to understand the girl's dilemma, and told her that she could think about it slowly and not rush to make a decision.

"Well, I will, Mr. Xiazhi..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka gave him a somewhat forced but grateful smile.

She took a deep breath and asked as if to confirm, "So, Goddess... the Ereshkigal Festival is held for the South American Lostbelt?"

"Because that lootband has the characteristics of the 'underworld', and death is also a very important part of South American mythology. Even the sun will constantly be destroyed and reborn, so it is beneficial to target this entry point..."

The young man nodded calmly, speaking half-truthfully, and glanced at the end of the corridor.

There were a few maids there, who were about to come over here. They saw this scene from afar, tactfully saluted hurriedly, and then hurriedly left and took a detour.

Because of the distrust and indifference towards fairies, the servants in the palace are all carefully selected humans.

After all, there is a saying that a thief can steal for a thousand days, but there is no such thing as a thief on guard against thieves for a thousand days. Who knows what the goblin's brain circuit is like? If you are not careful, you may taste the traditional art of the goblin's poisonous wine...

Although for now, such precautions are no longer necessary.

However, since it was decided several years ago, it was continued.

Retracting his gaze, Xia Zhi observed the thoughtful expression on the girl's face before continuing, "So Miss Ishtar proposed the idea of a goddess sacrifice, hoping to perform a targeted ritual in the name of Ereshkigal, the mistress of the underworld..."

This is still a half-truth.

The fake part is naturally the cause of the Goddess Festival. Miss Ishtar has not thought it through so carefully. This is just an excuse to deal with Ritsuka and make her feel relieved and not doubt it.

As for the true part, it is naturally that he did have such an intention and wanted to make use of the Ereshkigal Festival to do something.

"Really? As expected..."

The Master of Chaldea nodded and spoke as if to herself.

"..."

"..."

Then, as if she had made up her mind, she looked up at the young man in front of her and said, "Mr. Xia Zhi, I will think about it carefully. Maybe I need to make some preparations... But before that, can I learn about the situation in the South American Lostbelt?"

He said he would think about it carefully, but his meaning was actually very clear.

She had almost made up her mind to join this operation.

There's no point in getting hung up on it.

Waiting will not bring answers.

Li Xiang asked herself whether she was sure which choice was better, but she knew she couldn't just go on like this and do nothing. Moreover, even if she didn't make a choice, she didn't think Mr. Xia Zhi would change his mind.

If that's the case, then what else is there to say? Just take action.

After all, it was a major matter involving the Lostbelt, and she couldn't pretend not to see it no matter what.

At least in later generations, the South American Lostbelt still exists, but I don’t know what the situation was like at that time. Was it still independent, or had it become a subsidiary of the British Lostbelt?

She believes that this point still needs to be confirmed.

In short, we must not fall behind in intelligence and must find out as much as possible so that we can be prepared for the situations and problems that Chaldea may encounter in the future.

She thought so secretly, strengthening her determination.

Even without carefully analyzing the girl's biowaves, Xia Zhi could guess her psychological activities at this moment. After several years of contact, he could clearly understand the girl's thoughts and personality without any extraordinary powers.

He did not refuse, but nodded and said:
"Since you say so, let me show you—"

Instantly. The world turned upside down.

Fujimaru Ritsuka felt that the moment the young man's voice fell, his eyes suddenly blurred, and when he came to his senses, he found that he had sunk into darkness.

As if to block out the light, time is stopped.

Everything is flowing in cessation——

“The world is divided into three parts: life is on the outermost fabric, the soul is in the depths of the planet, and books are on the outermost part.”

The magician's voice came slowly.

“Everything flows on the canals of those light years, like ships floating on the water.”

The mistress looked in the direction of the voice, somewhat at a loss, and found that in the darkness, she could still see Mr. Xia Zhi's figure, which made her subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, feeling relieved, she looked around carefully and was somewhat surprised to find that although it was dark and blocked out the light, she could still see.

Or rather, we cannot say that we “see” something, but rather we should say that we “feel” something.

Certain information received by her sensory perception was presented in her mind in a strange way. Both the sound and the picture were actually analog signals.

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka himself was not aware of this. He was just surprised at the counter-intuitive phenomenon that he could see clearly in the dark.

She found that she and Medusa were like standing on ripples, following Mr. Xiazhi in front of them, and under his leadership, they were moving towards the future on the endless canal.

"This is the Star Canal. All people and objects are ships sailing on this canal..."

The young man explained, speaking in a calm tone.

"How about it? It's amazing, isn't it? This world is really interesting. Every planet has its own time canal with its own history. Or should we say that this is the scenery and memory of the planet..."

"Star, Star Canal..."

The Master was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to her senses and asked hurriedly, "Then Mr. Xia Zhi, what are we doing—?"

"Take you to the future and see what it will look like..."

The magician said concisely.

To the future!

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression was no longer calm. She swallowed hard and said reluctantly and cautiously, "Can this, can this be done?"

"Of course, time is open to me..."

Xia Zhi turned around and looked at her, and said meaningfully.

"What's more, I am carrying your consciousness instead of your physical body, so the exchange of information will be much easier."

Consciousness...

It turned out to be like this...

Ah, no, no, that's not the point at all. Even if it's just the exchange of intelligence, it's terrifying...

Doesn't this mean that, as long as he wants, there are no secrets in this world for him? Whether it's the future, the past, or the present, it's the same as nothing.

Ritsuka Fujimaru's head was a mess. He was so shocked by the news that he was in a daze and didn't know what he was thinking for a moment.

And just as she was in a daze——

The magician spoke again.

"It's time. It's at this point in time. If nothing is done, after they mature, the two Lostbelts of Britain and South America will collide..."

He paused, reached out and tapped gently.

The darkness around was instantly expelled, and endless light gushed out.

For a moment, the Master thought she had returned to reality, but the brilliant flames, chaotic colors and shocking sounds that followed immediately made her stunned on the spot.

It's like a person who is suddenly dragged onto the battlefield without any preparation, and is completely stunned by the artillery fire, deafening roar, and endless sounds of war.

"This Mr. Spider is not friendly at all. He crawled directly along the branches of the World Tree, delivering the power of a continent-level attack every second..."

Xia Zhi commented with interest: "Its attacks can cause damage to higher dimensions, and the cosmic rays and storms it carries can directly evaporate divine servants. Ordinary combat forces can't even get close to it."

"This this……"

Ritsuka Fujimaru's brain was a little malfunctioning and his voice was trembling.

If what she saw were not images, like watching a movie through a screen, she would probably have been unable to stand steadily under the terrifying pressure.

In fact, she couldn't calm down now.

Looking at the horrifying scene taking place in the distant sky, the sky and the earth rumbling, and the moment the giant monster collided with the light man, she even thought it was some special effects film.

Isn’t this really a set where Ultraman fights monsters?

"It's scary, right? So it will really cause trouble for others. Even if it can be dealt with, it will definitely cause huge damage to our side."

The magician sighed calmly, "So when I was attacked in the future, I decided to change the outcome and strike first."

"In the future...after the attack?"

The Master was stunned for a moment and looked at him subconsciously.

Could it be that……

She hesitated for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Is it... "Single Appearance"? Mr. Xia Zhi, have you mastered this ability?"

"No, it is 'the eternal existence of the Dharma body'."

The young man blinked and looked at her.

"The three periods of time are real, and the Dharma body is eternal. It exists now, and it will never be without it."

"It refers to the substance of all dharmas, which exist eternally in the past, present, and future. When a dharma is said to arise, it ceases to exist. It arises in the future and ceases in the present."
