My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 529 The Sinners! The Emperor on the Throne: I've been waiting for someone!

Chu Zhu fell silent again, scrutinizing Jia Yanyu repeatedly. This time, only two words flashed through her mind: "...the sinful clan!"

Those living at the very bottom are all sinners! They're all just resources... Besides that, there's no other information...

Clearly, Jia Yanyu herself was not quite sure how she got this title.

"??" Chu Zhu didn't even have time to be angry before fragmented images flashed before his eyes. They were waves churning in the sea of ​​memories: "...No!"

Chu Zhu was filled with confusion. The reason he asked the question was because he couldn't accurately filter out the memories he wanted... But what was going on now? Was it because those two words had triggered something... or was his subconscious mind controlling the sea of ​​memories?
Outrageous...

Chu Zhu was silent for a moment, countless possibilities flashing through his mind. Finally, he silently recited in his heart, wanting to obtain all the truths of the current world! But after reciting it many times, there was still no response: "So, it's not a matter of getting an answer to every question! Then what's the difference between this and getting answers before... I can't think of anything right now? Hmm, this usage is really..."

With a sigh, Chu Zhu didn't dwell on it.

After processing those fragmented memories, Chu Zhu's face first showed surprise, then understanding, and finally a mixture of laughter and tears.

"...Are you alright?" Faced with Jia Yanyu's question, Chu Zhu did not speak, her eyes flickering uncertainly.

Those at the bottom are indeed a sinner race! According to the fragmented memories unearthed from the Sea of ​​Memories, they are the descendants of those who betrayed Chu Zhu in the previous civilization, defected to other civilizations, or who unscrupulously oppressed others and committed countless crimes...
Yes, and not just in the pre-civilization era, but throughout countless ages... those who commit unforgivable crimes are stripped of their power and cast down below!
This is not exploitation, nor is it simply oppression... it is simply ignoring!
They stripped away their extraordinary power, stripped them of all human rights, and prevented them from enjoying the divine light overflowing from the Infinite Divine Realm... from enjoying that super-strong time ratio enhancement!

Under these circumstances, as time goes by, they will naturally become vastly different from those in the upper class! It's as if... they've become two different species!

Therefore, they are indeed a race of sinners!

They were once the criminals designated by Chu Zhu's good brother.

Therefore, his past changes to the world have not been rewritten for these people due to the butterfly effect...

As for why the number of these criminals is now so unimaginably large... it's naturally because the living standards of the lower classes are extremely low! The social order they have formed is also extremely poor, and even the level of education is unbelievably low... which ultimately creates this environment where people are desperately trying to reproduce!
In stark contrast... the superhuman beings at the top live far too comfortably!
Without considering pollution, the increased time allowed their cultivation to rapidly improve... extending their lifespan to an unimaginable length...

Therefore, their birth rate is extremely low! In fact, if it weren't for the fact that some people in the middle level became extraordinary in the virtual game, were officially accepted as reincarnators, and then ascended... the number of these beings at the very top level would most likely continue to decrease over time—and this is a decrease even with such a long lifespan!

"...But, although I'm not curious about their current treatment! But..."

Chu Zhu looked down at the earth, and a new question arose in his mind: why would his good brother allow them to live? Yes, Chu Zhu now felt that his good brother had been too lenient.

In a situation where we are at a disadvantage in the competition with the outer universe, the chaotic darkness at the bottom of this nest city is a breeding ground for pollution, making it easy for extraterrestrial civilizations to target us, spread chaos and pollution, and ultimately unleash a disruptive upheaval, right? Right now, this is simply... too lenient!
Thoughts involving the past and the future are colliding.

"Are there still gods walking on the earth now?" Chu Zhu asked Jia Yanyu.

"?" Jia Yanyu's pupils contracted, a hint of surprise and uncertainty flashing within them. She pursed her lips: "As far as I know..."

The next instant, Jia Yanyu made her move.

That was a terrifying battle aura that defied description. Ultimately, the new path Kevin forged was one where all supernatural powers were equated with supernatural abilities, constantly accumulating until reaching their peak, ultimately achieving a breakthrough!
"...So that's how it is. Inside the Imperial Palace in the capital, sits the only god on Earth at present...the Journey to the West God! He is the supreme ruler of the Journey to the West world." Chu Zhu thoughtfully read the information that flashed through Jia Yanyu's mind.

At this moment, Jia Yanyu was like an insect trapped in amber. Her fingertips were only an inch away from Chu Zhu's forehead, yet it felt like they were worlds apart, and she could not make an inch of progress.

How could this be? Even if the opponent is a god... Jia Yanyu forcibly suppressed the fear in her heart while trying to activate the divine power within her body, but it was of no use.

“…You’re finished! You’re going to die.” Jia Yanyu said with difficulty, but every word was firm, filled with ruthlessness and killing intent.

Chu Zhu wasn't angry; he simply gazed quietly at Jia Yanyu's fair and jade-like face. He knew why she was acting this way—because of his lack of common sense, she thought... he was an enemy disguised as Chu Zhu.

Clearly, the battles with extraterrestrial enemies in this era are extremely fierce... seemingly loose and chaotic! In reality, it is outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense; if there is even the slightest disagreement, the table will be overturned.

He even knew that Jia Yanyu wasn't after him at all... because the other side was well aware of the unimaginable difference in their strength... and that the other side's true purpose was...

The ancient church headquarters trembled.

Then, it was suddenly overturned. A piercing whistling sound rang out!
One after another, heavily armored, towering figures landed with a thud. One, two, three... Their landings appeared chaotic and disorderly, yet they contained within them a certain essence of the world.

"The Eight Trigrams of the Primordial Era! Interesting." A look of understanding flashed in Chu Zhu's eyes—this was somewhat similar to an Eight Trigrams supernatural power he had once copied. Of course, the one being displayed now was still different from the Eight Trigrams supernatural power at its peak. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be a method developed based on the Eight Trigrams supernatural power!

Even though it was just magic... at this moment, being activated by eight powerful and terrifying demigods simultaneously, the aura it displayed was still unimaginably strong—

"O evil god! Your end has come."

"Allow me to wait and escort you home."

Their words were calm and respectful, but their actions were unimaginably brutal. Each of them possessed strength surpassing Jia Yanyu's. Moreover, Chu Zhu recognized two familiar faces among them…

For example, there was Emperor Taizong of the Great Qian Dynasty, and another was the abbot of the Great Thunder Temple whom he had met before—this abbot was killed by Chu Zhu along with many of the Buddhist sect's secrets in a previous timeline.

Although some of the other six were unfamiliar to Chu Zhu, he could basically tell from their auras that they were probably giants from the Mohist sect or Taoism.

The power of the eight terrifying beings expanded rapidly through the amplifying power of the Bagua diagram, allowing that power to truly enter the realm of gods!
It's like facing Kevin!

"What a pity!" Chu Zhu's lips curled into a smile. With a flick of his finger, the Bagua diagram was instantly manipulated—Divine Power: Bagua! Activated. Your strength is not bad! Unfortunately, my control over the Bagua surpasses yours!
The divine energy backlash caused their bodies to tremble violently, cracks appearing on their skin. It seemed as if they would shatter completely in the next moment!
"What? How is that possible???"

"This kind of thing..."

Apart from the two beings at the beginning whose expressions changed drastically, the other six beings remained expressionless, their eyes revealing shock, like puppets... They were astonished to realize that the supreme being opposite them was actually wresting control of the Bagua diagram they had constructed! And had even succeeded in part of it... This was not just outrageous, it was unbelievable.

"Time, please slow down!" Chu Zhu murmured softly, using his memory power to freeze the void. Chu Zhu had always been relatively unfamiliar with the realm of time, although he constantly traveled to the future through dreams... seemingly strongly related to time! But even now, Chu Zhu couldn't see the true nature of his journey to the future.

However, his good friend discovered a divine realm decoupled from time proportions, and ultimately used the power of memory to project it into the real world! He indirectly gained the power of time… Afterwards, Chu Zhu ascended to godhood several times, even battling powerful enemies, and comprehended that 'the essence of memory is past history.' He even used this to unleash attacks that reduced dimensions!
Therefore, he can indirectly use this to mimic... the effect of time stopping!

No one spoke.

The surroundings were eerily quiet.

Although the nine beings, including Jia Yanyu, could no longer move an inch, their pupils seemed to be filled with various emotions... Although their bodies and lives were frozen, their minds were still functioning.

"The Journey to the West God!" Chu Zhu murmured the word, as he continuously read through the memories of that Journey to the West God that flashed through his mind, amidst the beings before him...

But the more Chu Zhu read, the more his brows furrowed. He couldn't match the information with any of the people he knew. Could it be a stranger? Impossible!

Undoubtedly, Earth is the main base... so how could a stranger be allowed to sit there?

Chu Zhu took a step forward, and the nine people around him felt as if their brains were about to explode. They were shocked to find themselves inside the imperial palace.

Time resumed its normal flow at that moment.

Everyone was drenched in sweat, realizing the vast difference between themselves and Chu Zhu, as if heaven and earth were one and the other were the same.

Emperor Taizong, who was at the head, gritted his teeth and made a decision. His eyes showed determination, and he had no intention of bowing down. But before he could reprimand him, Chu Zhu spoke indifferently: "This Divine Lord, although I still don't understand the situation... I think you should recognize me! And having seen me now... you should understand a lot, right?"

The nine people froze, exchanging bewildered glances as countless possibilities flashed through their minds... Was it an acquaintance of the Divine Lord?
"...Strange!" Chu Zhu stared at the unresponsive gate, lost in thought. Then his gaze sharpened. Could it be that an enemy was sitting inside the palace? This had happened before! Like with that Emperor Su…

“I see,” Chu Zhu said thoughtfully, glancing at the people around her, and then discerning the information she wanted to know: “Could He be asleep now?”

Everyone: "???"

So it's mind reading? Oh my god, that's terrifying! They can even read their minds... That's too sinister, too outrageous!
"Um...you're really not an enemy?" Jia Yanyu swallowed hard. She knew very well how powerful that Journey to the West God was. The eight people around him were supposed to be his guards, but in reality, their strength was far from sufficient to protect him... She had no doubt that the God would have an easier time defeating these eight people than Chu Zhu had done with them before!
She had initially thought that Chu Zhu would flee in panic, but now... he's actually confronting her directly?!

Chu Zhu did not answer. Seeing Chu Zhu take a step, Emperor Taizong's eyes flickered, and he immediately said, "I'll take you inside!"

"Come here." Chu Zhu gave him a deep look, realizing he was serious. She uttered a single word concisely.

door.

It slowly opens.

As Chu Zhu walked through the vast hall, he had to admit that although the palace looked very similar to the Great Qian Imperial Palace from the outside, the interior was completely different! It was clear that the space had been expanded.

The other seven guards were closely following behind Chu Zhu, seemingly escorting him. But Chu Zhu understood that they were also blocking the way... in case Chu Zhu was an enemy.

Finally, Emperor Taizong stopped and knelt down on one knee with a thud.

Chu Zhu quietly gazed at the figure seated on the throne, her pupils contracting for a moment as countless thoughts flashed through her mind, ultimately culminating in a sigh.

"Although I had guessed before... but because I gained the power to conquer the gods, I really didn't expect... it really is you!"

It was Su Zheng! Of course, he was now completely unrecognizable, with bones exposed on eighty percent of his body.

His remaining eyes were slightly closed, and in Chu Zhu's perception, his aura completely merged with the entire throne. His spirit, his life, and the second divine position within him that was different from the one of the conquering gods—all of them were now connected in the darkness to some mysterious place.

"I'll help you!" After a moment's thought, Chu Zhu made a decision and stepped forward without hesitation. To the astonishment of the others, she placed her hand on Su Zheng's bones. Like turning on a tap, the unimaginable divine power surging within her body was unleashed at that moment.

"Outrageous!" Chu Zhu's eyelids twitched several times as he deeply felt how terrifying Su Zheng was. The speed at which he was extracting energy was so fast that he felt a bit of pressure... This was too outrageous. He possessed two divine positions and had even killed the Almighty God in the past... Well, considering that killing a god was due to the power of destruction! And now it was just pure energy output... But this was still terrifying.

"...Copy...hmm?"

Before Chu Zhu could even unleash his supernatural power, strands of flesh and blood began to grow from the withered skeleton—Chu Zhu keenly realized that this creature also possessed an extremely terrifying self-regenerative ability. The reason it was in its current state was purely because it had been pushed too far by the throne. Now that Chu Zhu was bearing the pressure, it instantly breathed a sigh of relief… At the current rate, if it could withstand the pressure for three hours, the creature's body should be able to return to its peak condition.

"..." Su Zheng slowly raised his eyelids, staring at Chu Zhu, seemingly stunned for a moment, or perhaps thinking about something.

Chu Zhu gazed quietly at her eldest son. Then, she heard words tinged with a hint of hoarseness and weariness…

"...It's been too long! So long that my memories have become fragmented...but I still remember that I am waiting for someone!"

"...Was that you?"
