My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 492 The Divine Realm of Memories! The Imperial Ancestral Temple in the Capital! Qin Shi Huang! Emperor Taizong of Tang!
Slowly opening her eyes, Chu Zhu looked around, a look of astonishment appearing in her eyes: "Where am I?"

At this moment, he wasn't actually in the mechanical, or rather, eco-friendly Nuwa base. All around him were blue skies and white clouds, and he was lying on a white cloud...

"And it's not a virtual world! But it doesn't quite feel like the real world either? This feeling..." Chu Zhu stood up, standing on the white cloud, clenched his fist, his brows furrowing even more deeply. He remained silent for a long time, then murmured, "What happened?"

Why did such a dramatic change occur in this person's life?

After closing his eyes for a moment, Chu Zhu quietly sensed the surroundings, then opened them again: "Something's not right! I can't sense that I exist in someone's memories..."

In other words, in the eyes of the general public, he is a person who doesn't exist? No...

"If I have ever acted in this world before, I would have some residual memories! If I have none at all, then... are there any living people left in this world?"

Chu Zhu's gaze deepened, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. What exactly was going on with this timeline?

Without hesitation, he stood up, his body instantly transforming into a memory cell, immune to all physical damage. Then he took a step forward: "Hmm?"

Chu Zhu felt as if he had passed through a bubble the moment he left the white cloud. Turning around again, he found that he could no longer see the white cloud that had been lying there.

“…Interesting!” Chu Zhu pondered for a while, then looked up and gazed at the sky. The surroundings were still blue sky and white clouds, seemingly no different from the previous environment? However, Chu Zhu keenly realized that this was only superficially the same…the essence had undergone a drastic change.

Chu Zhu tentatively tried to go back, but found that it was impossible. Even after summoning countless illusory bodies and searching the void thoroughly, she still couldn't find that feeling of passing through the bubble...

"Fine, I'll die once! That should be enough to get me back."

Chu Zhu thought for a moment, then let go of her obsession. With a thought, she dispersed her fictitious body and then, in her body of memories, flashed rapidly through the sky...

Chu Zhu flew at breakneck speed through the sky, surveying the land. The more he looked, the deeper his brow furrowed. Many areas were flat, suitable for cultivation, yet he still saw vast expanses of green. Towering ancient trees…

The only thing that made him feel fortunate was that he soon saw some scattered houses on the edge of the area.

"At least it proves... it's not the worst-case scenario I initially suspected! Everyone is dead..."

……

After a while.

Following the population distribution and using her memory to search, Chu Zhu arrived at the most prosperous area and saw...

"Where did this come from for me?"

Chu Zhu stared in disbelief at the ancient city on the earth, a magnificent and bustling city with people and vehicles.

The city guards wore heavy black armor, their expressions silent and cold. Most importantly, these guards emanated wisps of auspicious energy. This proved they were at least second-level transcendent beings!
However, there were far too many extraordinary individuals... This was the first time Chu Zhu had ever seen ordinary guards protecting the city who were all extraordinary.

Compared to this place, the Great Qian Dynasty is in a terrible state... Perhaps only the human empire can keep it firmly under control?
After a moment's thought, Chu Zhu gently flicked his finger, and two figures instantly appeared beside him. They were Memory Z and Memory Nuwa.

"...Have we come to this era again?" Memory Z's face showed joy. Because of Chu Zhu's settings, although strictly speaking, the two did not disappear in the real world, they also retained the memories of their experiences in the real world when they appeared in the dream world. Ultimately, their memories were essentially derived from Chu Zhu's settings.

"You should contact the original entities of your era!" Chu Zhu's voice was heavy.

Nuwa looked deeply at Chu Zhu, closed her eyes to sense for a moment, and suddenly said, "I can't sense anything!"

Memory Z suddenly exclaimed, "No, this world is wrong... This isn't real at all..."

The next moment.

A loud dragon roar rang out.

Then, in the very center of this great city, a beam of black light shot straight into the sky, with faint traces of dragon energy churning within.

Chu Zhu's pupils suddenly contracted, and she inexplicably sensed a hint of the divine authority of nations and conquerors. Although not entirely the same…

It was as if I had received some kind of notification.

The black-armored guards, who had previously coldly watched over the city but made no attempt to monitor passersby, all changed their expressions.

They looked up at the sky, but of course, they didn't see Chu Zhu using any mysterious or secretive power. So, they quickly and seriously scanned their surroundings… clearly, they were on guard…

The next moment.

The ancient city seemed to come alive at that moment. Black light, centered on the ancient city, swept outwards in all directions…

One minute, two minutes, three minutes... the black light spread once, twice, three times...

at last.

"Found you..." A cold voice suddenly rang out.

A tall man appeared before Chu Zhu. He was dressed in a black dragon robe and wore a crown, exuding a sacred and majestic aura.

He scrutinized Chu Zhu repeatedly. The voice that came from his mouth was neither the language of the dream, nor Chinese or English, but revealed a kind of awkward and ancient charm: "Angels, what brings you here?"

“…God ​​of Nations and Conquest!” Chu Zhu murmured, then his brows furrowed sharply. But why wasn't the person before him Su Bo? Was the time anchoring effect malfunctioning? Or perhaps…

Moreover, angel? Chu Zhu actually realized that this angel probably didn't refer to the angels of the Catholic Church, or Western angels, but rather to a term of respect—

In ancient China, the emperor's messengers were generally called angels! But the being before us... seems to be wearing a dragon robe?

As if realizing something, the man in the black dragon robe suddenly changed his expression, drew his long sword from his waist, and pointed it at Chu Zhu, Z, and Nuwa.

"The gods in the heavens... no, this feeling! It's not real... and if they really were gods, they couldn't be this weak... who are you?!"

This man, who was undoubtedly the emperor, was clearly somewhat confused, but he didn't dwell on it. After a moment of uncertainty, his gaze flickered, as if he had made up his mind.

"Enough! Let your blood... be used to sacrifice... the fate of my Immortal Qin Kingdom! To defy the Heavenly Court!"

"I, Ying Zheng, respectfully send you, my esteemed gods, to the heavens!"

"!!!"

Immortal Qin? Heavenly Court? Ying Zheng? Chu Zhu's heart stopped. Where did this come from?

Chu Zhu considered countless possibilities... For example, the Heavenly Court was never destroyed, and God did not lose control, or perhaps he went to Mars, which led to a huge change in later generations!
For example...

The mysterious power in his mind that he couldn't quite grasp had malfunctioned, and instead of sending him three thousand years into the future... this time, it sent him to the Qin Dynasty, thousands of years ago!
It might even be possible...

A deep gloom appeared in Chu Zhu's eyes.

Moreover, when the person before them, who claimed to be Ying Zheng but whose true identity as the First Emperor was highly questionable, underwent a drastic change in attitude... he clearly shifted his address from angel to supreme god...

But before he could think any further... the next instant.

The sword suddenly swung towards them.

The divine light of nationhood and conquest in Chu Zhu's mind could actually exempt him from the gods' seal. However, Chu Zhu realized that unless he was facing Z, who only wanted to capture him alive—

He was facing a real god who wanted to kill him. He couldn't even react in time, let alone try to escape... Even if he could, without giving him that kind of reaction time, what could he do?
Immediately, time began to reverse and reset.

……

Opening her eyes again, Chu Zhu surveyed the familiar blue sky and white clouds around her and fell into a long silence.

Rubbing his cheeks, Chu Zhu's expression turned serious. He gently flicked his fingers, activating the power of illusion to condense one Chu Zhu after another.

“…Go!” Chu Zhu wanted these fictional versions of herself to go and investigate the situation, but… after the first fictional version left, Chu Zhu’s pupils contracted.

The fictional figure disappears the moment it steps out of the white clouds.

Most importantly... "Lost contact?!" Chu Zhu was incredulous, her brows furrowed as she repeatedly sensed the surroundings.

This is a very strange thing!

The connection between Chu Zhu and his fictional body is unimaginably close. Even sending the fictional body to the Moon's Memory Realm previously had no problem! He can project his consciousness there at any time…

There has never been a situation where we lost contact before... no, it happened once!
"...A fictional body, entering the realm of memories! I can't contact him anymore," Chu Zhu murmured. His expression gradually became strange: "So, it seems I really do feel..."

It's neither a virtual world nor reality!
Previously, Chu Zhu felt something was amiss, but now, upon reflection, he suddenly realized that his current senses were somewhat similar to those within the Realm of Memories… though not entirely the same…

"Does this mean that I am actually in the Realm of Memories right now?"

"But if it's the Divine Realm of Memories... why did I lose contact with my avatar as soon as I stepped out of the clouds? And the moment I stepped out of the clouds... I realized I couldn't come back!"

"The place I'm in now... is the Realm of Memories. Wasn't the place I left before? But the feeling is the same..."

"From this perspective... both places should be memory realms..."

"Wait, so, the outside is another realm of memories?"

A realization dawned on Chu Zhu's eyes. The Memory God Realm wasn't a single, isolated entity! Theoretically, it could be considered a small world... Therefore, two, or perhaps more, Memory God Realms might be like isolated yet closely connected small worlds...

Countless thoughts flashed through Chu Zhu's mind. She recalled how, after leaving, she passed through that 'bubble' and was transported from her current Memory Realm to another! Most importantly, the environment of that Memory Realm seemed to be from the Qin Dynasty…

Don't tell me I'm on Mars right now!

Chu Zhu suddenly felt a toothache, and he recalled what Z had emphasized to him in his last dream life.

Mars is filled with countless realms of memories, which are the reincarnations of countless dynasties—the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and even the modern era… This all matches up!

"But why am I on Mars?" Chu Zhu was completely baffled. In his previous life, he was undergoing special training to recall the past. In his last life, he chose to enter the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the capital and fall asleep there.

After all, according to Chu Zhu's knowledge, the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the capital was Nuwa's No. 1 base! Moreover, it was protected by Nuwa with countless layers of armor, making it arguably the safest place in the world...

Based on past experience, he should still wake up in the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the capital, right?
"Could it be that... my good brother did something in the past on this timeline that led to Z and me successfully attacking Mars yesterday? ... That's impossible! There's never been a case like this before!"

The more Chu Zhu thought about it, the more confused she became. Her brows furrowed deeper as she paced back and forth. Finally, she made up her mind, gritted her teeth, and charged headlong into another direction…

then……

……

"...You mean, your name is Li Shimin? The Great Emperor Taizong of Tang?" Chu Zhu stared blankly at the dashing young man before her. Where had such a powerful figure as Ying Zheng gone?
"...Emperor Taizong Wen?" The young man remained silent for a long, long time, then smiled and said, "Is the angel giving me my final verdict?"

Although the young man was somewhat displeased, he eventually relented and frankly said, "I do indeed quite like Emperor Taizong and Emperor Wen... However, my lord! I apologize! Please allow me... to send you to heaven!"

Although his words were tinged with apology, the young man acted without hesitation.

……

Above the white clouds.

Chu Zhu woke up again, stroking his chin, his expression becoming increasingly strange: "This time we went to the Tang Dynasty... This further confirms that I am indeed in the memory realm that Z mentioned, which infinitely simulates various dynasties?"

"In other words..." Chu Zhu looked around with a subtle expression. The direction he chose to leave last time was completely different from the one before that. So, does it mean that if he changes direction now and goes out, he might enter a new dynasty?
Chu Zhu shook his head, forcibly clearing the chaotic thoughts from his mind: "This Li Shimin also possesses the aura of the god of the nation and conquest... but his aura is exactly the same as Ying Zheng's?"

"Their divine positions are the same... and it can only be said that they resemble the divine aura of the god of nation and conquest, but in reality, they are not..."

"But then again, only one god can exist in a given era!"

A look of realization gradually appeared in Chu Zhu's eyes: "I understand now. Two memory realms, even memory realms from the same era, cannot possibly have the same divine position."

In other words, the two entities within these two realms of memory are illusions...

However, their situation was completely different from the mindless NPCs Chu Zhu had previously encountered on the moon...

Based on the above, Chu Zhu made a bold guess.

"From what I can see right now, it's more like... virtual reality than a realm of memories! But if it's virtual reality, I could wake up in the real world at any time... so?"

Chu Zhu naturally deduced the conclusion. Is the essence of the matter a superposition of virtual reality and the realm of memory?

Do not!
"There is a very high probability that I have transformed virtual reality into my memory domain!"

Chu Zhu gradually came to a conclusion about her situation, and at the same time, she made a very frightening and bold guess about her current situation.

"No matter how the timeline changes, I'll always be in the same place when I wake up, no matter where I was before I fell asleep... If we disregard the changes that occur within the dream shuttle... I'm sticking to this point!"

"Does that mean that even if the world is turned upside down right now, I should still be in the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the capital?"

"And I once learned from Nuwa that the ancestral temple in the virtual world is actually part of the realm of memories!"

Chu Zhu took a deep breath, her eyes filled with a profound look.

and so……

Is it possible that he is still in the Imperial Ancestral Temple in Beijing?

However, the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the capital has now been completely transformed into a memory realm based on virtual reality.

That's why he came here the moment he woke up.

At the same time, there is a very high probability that the Memory Realm is interconnected with other Memory Realms...

Therefore, if he were to leave this land of white clouds directly and enter other realms of memory...

"If that's true, then my previous journey... was actually from the Imperial Ancestral Temple in Earth's capital, directly into the endless cycle of memories on Mars!"

"Perhaps this could be considered an alternative way to get to Mars?" Chu Zhu couldn't help but laugh at himself.

As for how to leave this land of white clouds... Chu Zhu had a guess.

"Nuwa, Z, are you sure you don't want to come out?" Chu Zhu asked boldly, but no one responded, and a shadow fell over Chu Zhu's eyes.

Although he had some suspicions when he went to other places and no one came out to stop him before... now, Chu Zhu confirmed that his judgment was correct - Nuwa, or even Z, may no longer exist in the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the capital!

Shaking her head, Chu Zhu chose suicide without hesitation.

Although he had been killed in the realm of memories before, that was when he was traveling to other realms of memories, or perhaps, his consciousness had even traveled to Mars… before he was killed…

Considering the realities of Mars and the instantaneous reset, that kind of death could only mean that Chu Zhu was truly dead...

Based on my experience on the moon, if I were to commit suicide within the original, orthodox realm of memories, it would only...

Chu Zhu slowly opened her eyes.

The surroundings were a vast expanse of white, but Chu Zhu was not surprised at all, because it was the same when she went to the moon and left the Divine Realm of Memory.

An idea struck him.

The surrounding environment changed drastically in the next instant.

Chu Zhu appeared at the main gate of the Imperial Ancestral Temple... just like when he left the Moon Memory Realm by suicide and appeared directly in front of that illusory gate.
