My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 487 Breaking Through to the Fifth Realm: The Two Divine Positions Dormant in My Mind!

Chu Zhu opened her eyes, scanned the familiar surroundings, and glanced at the time: "Six o'clock in the morning, have we returned to the beginning?"

He was in the virtual world at that moment.

Chu Zhu pinched the bridge of her nose, but instead of calling out to Z, she was pondering a very serious question.

"The power of the nation and the god of conquest..."

Chu Zhu savored the newly emerged, strange power that was immersing him deep in his mind—a power that repelled the Buddhist light given to him by Z, which had originally been immersing him in his mind, and occupied the very center of his spiritual sea.

Powerful, domineering, profound... Its exterior is a sphere of white light. Inside, it seems to conceal a vast world, or a land—the dazzling light spreads in all directions, intertwining with Chu Zhu's spiritual power.

It even gave Chu Zhu a vague feeling that his spiritual power had undergone some kind of qualitative change. However, upon closer examination, he couldn't discern which direction this change was heading: "...It shouldn't be a malignant change! Although even if it were, it wouldn't matter..."

After all, according to Chu Zhu's analysis of the reset logic, a malignant change would be automatically erased upon death and reset. Even a malignant curse at the level of a god could probably be eliminated.

Compared to the changes it caused, Chu Zhu is now more curious...

"If nothing unexpected happens, this is what was left behind by the resetting of the divine position, capable of repelling the Buddha's light... No, it feels like the two are essentially equal! It's just that what was left behind by conquering the divine position this time is more powerful..."

Chu Zhu began to speculate: could this be the divine position of the god of nation and conquest, or something else entirely...? The only thing Chu Zhu was certain of at this moment was that this was definitely closely related to the divine position of the god of nation and conquest...

"I can't use the power of the God of Nation and Conquest right now... Is it because there's another godhood outside?" Chu Zhu's expression gradually turned serious. It's impossible for two identical things to exist at the same time! That makes perfect sense... Of course, it's also possible that the godhood itself has a problem? For example, it might be internally corrupted, and thus also cleansed by the reset! It's incomplete now...

“However! Compared to this…” Chu Zhu suddenly gave a wry smile: “Z…you bastard!”

Chu Zhu had been pondering what exactly the Buddhist blessing Z had bestowed upon him was. He had previously believed it to be a spiritual protection, possibly containing powerful forces and some contamination... However, this contamination had been reset and eliminated!

But now, the situation between the nation and the position of the god of conquest, and that essence of equality that he vaguely sensed... confirmed a bold guess he had made in the past...

"It seems..." Chu Zhu's lips twitched. Z, during that period of time, really did give him the divine position of the God of Harmony and Unity, right?

"Wait!" Chu Zhu belatedly realized. Z's purpose was clearly to use Chu Zhu to smuggle himself into the past.

Given this, it's perfectly reasonable for her to decide to carve out a divine position: "I was the fool!"

"...So." Chu Zhu was both amused and exasperated. Did these lights in his mind actually represent the divine positions he had obtained in other timelines during the reset?

"The question now is, what is the use of conquering the light..." Chu Zhu pondered. The radiance of Buddhism had protected his spirit. Then what about the radiance of this god of conquest...?

“Next, we can try it out!” Chu Zhu stood up, patted his cheeks, his gaze sharpened, and in the next instant, his figure twisted and contorted.

"...Wait a minute!" A voice tinged with surprise rang out. Z could no longer remain silent and observed from the sidelines; her figure appeared. However, she watched helplessly as Chu Zhu vanished.

Nuwa Base.

Chu Zhu opened her eyes and yawned: "Just right!"

Chu Zhu stretched his body, and then, with a thought, his cultivation broke through, reaching the fifth realm.

Having experienced the ascension to godhood and even initiated a divine war, his memory progress bar was completely filled... even overflowing—it can only be said that the memory value of this war was extremely high! Even higher than the Ten Perfect Tonic Pill.

What's even more intriguing is that this divine war also happens to be exactly what I mentioned before... a war that swept the world and influenced its destiny!
"I thought I was going to return to reality! I never expected this... It's true, nobody knows whether an accident or a serendipitous encounter will come first." Chu Zhu chuckled, then lazily stretched. "What do you think, Z?"

A brief silence.

The void then distorted.

Z's figure appeared, looking at Chu Zhu with some suspicion and uncertainty, a hint of wariness appearing in his pupils.

"What's wrong?" Chu Zhu asked, puzzled.

"Although I don't know... exactly how you replaced my father right under my nose! But now!" Z's voice carried a hint of murderous intent: "I'll give you two options: get out! Or die!"

"???" Chu Zhu's brain froze for a moment. Sensing the sealed void around him, he narrowed his eyes: "...Oh?"

Chu Zhu became interested, but then a thought struck him, and he decided not to explain for the time being. He wondered if he could break free from the seal under Z's pressure, or rather, learn a portion of the power of the Light of Conquest... He had a thought and hoped to jump away using his memories. Then he discovered that the surrounding space was now as hard as amber.

"...Hmm?" Chu Zhu's brows furrowed. What kind of technique was this? Z should be the god of machinery and industry, right? Also, does Su Zheng possess such a technique? If so, why did he...wait!
A thoughtful expression appeared on Chu Zhu's face. Was it due to the amplification of her divine status? Despite her contemplation, Chu Zhu continued her relentless experimentation, asking, "How did you come to the conclusion that I'm not your father?"

“Because of my father, the time of his last breakthrough was…” Z paused, his gaze sharp: “I’ve been observing him closely, so I’m quite certain… he could not possibly have broken through during that time period.”

"..." I see. Chu Zhu's lips twitched. He had almost forgotten that Z was actually unaware of resetting this setting: "Okay, I'll explain..."

Chu Zhu stopped speaking. He wasn't really worried about telling Z to reset the matter. In the past, they kept it quiet to prevent the enemy from finding out! But now it's the future…

All he needs to do is remain vigilant during the final reset timeline, eliminating any potential loopholes... On this timeline destined for obsolescence... there's nothing wrong with being honest! Everything is about saving time to the greatest extent possible and allowing himself to grow!

He stopped mainly because...

"! They actually found it." Chu Zhu's tone was inexplicable, and then, under Z's wary and confused gaze, Chu Zhu's figure suddenly disappeared.

Z fell silent, his mind blank. Z: "!!!"

How can this be? !
"...Clearly only at the fifth realm! How could he possibly transcend the constraints of godhood?!"

Z couldn't understand it, but was greatly shocked.

"This kind of thing... unless he himself also holds a divine position!"

After the thought flashed through her mind, a heavy shadow fell over Z's eyes. Without the slightest hesitation, she directly contacted Nuwa. As the most advanced artificial intelligence, their communication methods were naturally different from those of ordinary people.

In the blink of an eye, Nuwa experienced everything Z firsthand.

"I understand!" Nuwa said sparingly.

Then, all the electronic devices and monitoring equipment controlled by Nuwa and Z, the low-orbit satellites of Earth that were still standing within God's defense perimeter, and so on, were activated, rigorously and cautiously scanning everything on this land.

……

"How terrifying." Chu Zhu jumped out of Ao Liwen's memory. Under the influence of a mysterious hidden power, Ao Liwen and the people around her did not notice anything unusual.

This is a milk tea shop.

At this moment, Xiaolongnu was drinking a cup of milk tea, her gaze wistfully fixed on the Qinhuai River in the distance through the transparent glass.

Chu Zhu silently sensed the faint glow of the light of conquest emanating from her mind.

Compared to the protection of the soul, the Buddhist light is immune to all spiritual abilities!
The ability to conquer light seems to have diminished the absolute suppression of divine status.

Chu Zhu was originally at the fourth realm, but now he is at the fifth realm. Regardless of which realm he belongs to, Chu Zhu's supernatural powers can still be effective against Su Buqun, who is at the sixth realm.

especially……

If Su Buqun cannot see through his supernatural power, and cannot deduce the possible supernatural power based on the name of the supernatural power, and think of a way to break it—Chu Zhu's supernatural power, which controls conceptual terms, is almost unsolvable for Su Buqun.

However, it's a different story when it comes to facing the gods!

The saying "below the gods, all are but ants" is no exaggeration! What good are conceptual supernatural powers? They can be shattered with a single slap!

"But now... even Z! can't stop me."

Chu Zhu clenched his fist, a smile playing on his lips. Originally, a god attacking him was no different than beating a stray dog... However, the Light of Conquest allowed his divine powers to be exempt from the suppression of a god.

Of course, this only exempts them from such suppression! However, in terms of quantity... the two sides are still worlds apart.

In other words, Chu Zhu's supernatural powers can now affect gods! However, if he were to actually jump in front of a god, and the god wanted to kill him, a single thought would be enough to kill him instantly—he still couldn't defeat a god, but compared to other beings who would be instantly killed no matter how many came before a god, he had the potential to harm a god! "I'm starting to wonder if the demigods who can challenge gods are like me!" Chu Zhu pondered for a moment, revealing an ambiguous expression; this matter wasn't important.

After stretching, Chu Zhu slowly dissipated the hidden power.

"!!!" At this moment, Ao Liwen's pupils suddenly contracted, turning into vertical pupils like snakes, wary and cold. Then she recognized Chu Zhu, her eyebrows twitched a few times, and a look of confusion appeared in her pupils.

Few ordinary people around paid any attention.

"You shouldn't mind, shall I share a table with you?" Chu Zhu calmly sat down opposite Ao Liwen.

"If I say I have a problem, then you can get lost!" Ao Liwen's voice was icy. Her attitude was completely different from before...

Of course, this is normal, because when Chu Zhu reset the last time yesterday, although she met Ao Liwen, she did not reveal the identity of the Regent.

"I'm not here to chat you up!" Chu Zhu said coldly, seeing her attitude. "I'm waiting for someone!"

Chu Zhu was pondering this. Now that he had deactivated the secret, perhaps... they had already located his current location?

“?” Ao Liwen raised her eyebrows, about to say something, but she sensed something and stopped talking.

After a few breaths.

The wind chimes rang, and the door opened immediately.

A black-haired girl calmly walked into the milk tea shop. She sat down directly next to Chu Zhu, her clear, bright eyes fixed on him without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

"!!!" Cold sweat beaded on Ao Liwen's forehead. If her rudeness to Chu Zhu stemmed from Chu Zhu's highly unusual appearance this time, coupled with the fact that although they had spoken yesterday, she wasn't entirely clear about the person's background, it made her suspect that Chu Zhu was someone sent by the Dragon Prince of the North Sea Dragon Palace to monitor her...

So, when it comes to Z, it becomes a different concept.

She possessed the Dragon Treasure of the East Sea Dragon Palace, an incredibly powerful treasure. Yet, at this moment, she could feel the Dragon Treasure trembling within her, as if gripped by fear… But this so-called Dragon Treasure was one of the four sacred artifacts left behind by the legendary Ancestor Che, capable of instilling fear within it…

"Which...which..." Ao Liwen's tongue trembled, "Which Your Majesty is in person!"

A scream went through her mind: Why would a true god descend to earth in this era? And why would the true form of this supreme god sit opposite her? Was she worthy?

However, Z completely ignored her, and turned to stare at Chu Zhu, as if sizing him up or pondering: "...Empress Nuwa asked me to give you a message."

Ao Liwen: "!!!"

Could it be Nuwa?

Z casually tossed his phone onto the table, the screen emitting a faint glow.

"Grandpa, what brings you back?"

Nuwa's voice was more solemn than ever before: "And... how exactly did you cross over... and return!"

"?!" Chu Zhu was almost dumbfounded. Call him grandpa? What the hell? "Let me ask... shouldn't Lin Xinzhu still be the one who created you in this timeline?"

"...What's wrong?" Nuwa seemed to sense Chu Zhu's existential doubt.

"...I'm not Lin Xia!" Chu Zhu felt a slight pain in her teeth.

"???"

"!!!"

A brief moment of dead silence.

"...Then why do you faintly exude...the aura of a Buddhist deity?" This time, it was Z who asked the question, her gaze sharp to the extreme: "Are you the new Buddha of this generation?"

Ao Liwen: "..."

With a jolt, Ao Liwen nearly fainted. Especially remembering her extremely rude attitude towards the person in front of her… Dad, Mom, it's over, I'm setting sail tonight! I'm afraid you'll never see your beloved daughter again…

Ao Liwen had already begun to think about how to write her will... she even had a wild idea, wondering if she should kneel down on the spot and beg the other person for a chance to write it—

Those in high positions all know that Buddha was famously narrow-minded and famously magnanimous...

He's considered magnanimous because if you offend him, he might just raise his hand and say, "You have a connection with Buddha!"

And then that was it! You inexplicably ended up in Buddhism... and then he stopped bothering you.

He's considered petty because even the smallest thing that offends him will provoke him...

Wait! Ao Liwen suddenly realized something, and looked around expectantly. Then, her heart sank... It was incredibly eerie; the milk tea shop was completely empty! What terrified Ao Liwen the most was that she had only just discovered this...

"...You can sense it?" Chu Zhu was surprised.

“At first, there wasn’t, but after noticing your abnormality, I used my celestial computational power and glimpsed some clues.” Nuwa’s voice remained unchanged: “Moreover, I also sensed… I’m very curious, despite being the God of Conquest… why…”

A hint of realization crossed Chu Zhu's face, and at the same time, he vaguely guessed that this was probably the fundamental reason why Nuwa and the others hadn't mentioned it to him in the previous timeline—they needed this Heavenly Evolutionary Computational Power to glimpse it.

However, since it could really be discerned? Chu Zhu pondered, then he suspected that the Great Thunderclap Temple's reaction to him earlier might have actually detected the aura of a divine position... Two identical divine positions, who wouldn't be confused upon seeing each other? Even gods would be dumbfounded!
After a moment of wistful reflection, Chu Zhu pinched the bridge of his nose, choosing not to explain the Buddhist divine positions, and went straight to the point: "That is of course because...theoretically, this afternoon, with the help of both of you, I will successfully merge the divine positions of the God of Nation and the God of Conquest! To create the Great Chu...and become the Great Ancestor of Chu."

"?" Even though Ao Liwen was trying her best to control herself and minimize her presence, she almost couldn't hold back anymore. If she didn't want to talk about it, she wouldn't... Why...?

however……

"Wait a minute! Could it be..." Z's pupils suddenly contracted; this was the unique characteristic of artificial intelligence.

Based on Chu Zhu's words, she had already sifted through tens of millions of possibilities in her mind, and precisely locked onto several possible scenarios. After a long silence, she continued, "So, the reason your strength is..."

Chu Zhu nodded calmly.

After closing his eyes for a while, Z let out a long sigh of relief and practically collapsed onto the sofa, saying with a wry smile, "You scared me to death... It really was you... I almost thought I was going to lose you forever..."

Z did not continue speaking.

She had waited for this day for far too long.

She had been waiting from ancient times until now... On this timeline, she vaguely remembered the feeling she had when she first confirmed that her father had appeared in this era...

It was as if her once-dead heart was beating again... making her truly feel that she had come back to life, rather than just a machine simply carrying out the human continuation plan!

So, when she realized Chu Zhu might be in trouble, she almost went crazy. If it weren't for the fact that she had been suppressing her own contamination to an extremely low level using special methods... she felt she might have lost control.

"Alright, Z... let me tell you a story!" Chu Zhu organized her thoughts and calmly began to recount everything she had experienced on her previous timeline.

At first, Ao Liwen listened with great interest, and even occasionally made comments and criticisms in her mind.

However, as time went by, Ao Liwen frowned and realized that something seemed amiss.

Upon hearing the final words, Ao Liwen came to a terrifying conclusion, her expression becoming dazed and her body drenched in cold sweat.

Is this something she can hear? This...

Once again, he became a god... and after becoming a god, he wiped out the Buddhist foundation on the snowfield... and once again, the emperors returned, the corruptors returned, and everything was destroyed...

Is the next step to kill them to silence them?!
"Waaah!" Ao Liwen cried out in her heart. "It would be better to convert her to Buddhism!"

However, Chu Zhu stared intently at Z's eyes, seemingly surprised and lost in thought, and asked, "What are your thoughts?"
