The human figure formed from countless photons had a thin figure and delicate features. However, the most unique thing was that his appearance was 70 to 80% similar to Fang Xingjian's.
Watching as the man, who was completely formed from layers of white light, took another form, turning into a young man with black hair, brown eyes, and white robes, Fang Xingjian's eyes narrowed, and he said each word clearly, "The Holy See of Truth's previous Pope, Urethai."
Urethai, who was formed from light, looked at Fang Xingjian. The emotions in his gaze seemed to be extremely complicated.
In this period of time that was independent of the timeline, in this stagnant time, Fang Xingjian did not have to worry about his secret being leaked. He stared at Urethai and said, "What is the relationship between the two of us? And my mother, why did she die so early? "With her tier one Divine level cultivation back then, it was impossible for anyone to deal her with serious injuries regardless of whether it was in Miracle World or on Earth …"
Fang Xingjian's gaze was fixed on Urethai. He had too many questions that he wanted to ask Urethai.
However, Urethai shook his head, and the gaze in his eyes started to turn blurry. Simultaneously, he did not answer Fang Xingjian's question and instead started to narrate a piece of history.
"1,000 years ago, the Western Land's Ascendant Heavenly Sect sent out the Quanji seven people to wreak havoc in Miracle World. If it wasn't because the world's metamorphosis happened to be in the midst of a calamity, if it wasn't because the three great immortal sects were wary of each other and the Ascendant Heavenly Sect's Sect Master didn't take action personally, the entire world would've been taken over by the Western Land's higher realm," Urethai said calmly.
"Therefore, 1,000 years ago, after sealing the Prince, the top notch characters — including Saint Adam, the Formidable Divine King, and the current Pope — thought of a solution together. They relied on the White Emperor Zenith Sword's eight sections and then the current Pope channeled his will into it. With the White Emperor Zenith Sword and the powers of several top-notch sorcery and divine arts, they gained a battle prowess that was comparable to a tier nine Divine level expert."
Hearing Urethai's words, a thought flashed past Fang Xingjian's mind, and a guess rose in his mind …
"You're right." Urethai seemed to be able to see through what Fang Xingjian was thinking. He said calmly, "From then on, in order to continue this tier nine Divine level power, to prevent the Western Land's invasion and to protect Miracle World without the world's metamorphosis, each generation's Pope will replace the previous generation's Pope and merge into the White Emperor Zenith Sword after they step down."
"Is that so …" A hint of sorrow flashed in Fang Xingjian's eyes as he looked at Urethai. A top-notch character in the world had sacrificed himself in order to protect the weak. Fang Xingjian was unable to tell if this was right or wrong.
Fang Xingjian asked again, "Why didn't you pass on the method of life span conversion … Oh …" He immediately understood.
It had only been over 1,000 years since the sixth onslaught. It could be said that there was only a small group of people who had survived through the world's metamorphosis and had surpassed tier one of the Divine level experts through the life span conversion technique.
After thinking for a while, Fang Xingjian said, "So, to prevent these people from affecting the future development of the mainland, you sent them to other worlds, right? And … you even sent them to the Western Land to infiltrate into the higher realm? "
One could imagine that under the circumstances where the world's metamorphosis had not occurred, once those experts at tier two, three, or even six of the Divine level or above had gotten their hands on the method of life span conversion, all the other experts in Miracle World would only be ruled over and enslaved.
Moreover, with a great enemy like the Western Land right before them, how could they allow such internal strife?
Therefore, the past Popes were in charge of protecting Miracle World. Meanwhile, Saint Adam, the Formidable Divine King, and the other experts from 1,000 years ago had probably infiltrated the Western Land secretly, infiltrating toward the higher realm's upper echelon.
"It's just that there's still one thing I don't understand," Fang Xingjian said as he looked at the previous Pope. "Why didn't the past Popes survive?"
Urethai said, "This is the price to pay for taking a shortcut. The White Emperor Zenith Sword and the powers of tier nine of the Divine level are very strong, but they also carry a great burden. "It's because they are powers that don't belong to me, and they also prevent me from continuing to cultivate. This leads to the people who have fused with them being unable to use the life span conversion technique to attain immortality."
Fang Xingjian nodded, finally understanding what was going on. However, the sharpness in his gaze did not decrease in the slightest, and the gaze he used to look at Urethai also became even more awe-inspiring.
"I already know all these. Now, tell me, what on earth is going on with me, you, and my mother?" Fang Xingjian said coldly.
Simultaneously, streams of sword Qis kept on rising around him, encompassing toward Urethai in an overwhelming manner. It was as if Fang Xingjian was going to make a move at the slightest disagreement.
Urethai looked at Fang Xingjian with an even more complicated gaze.
"Child, you, me, and your mother … We don't come from Miracle World or Earth. "You and your mother are actually not members of the Fang Clan."
Fang Xingjian's brows raised. Although he felt surprised, he had guessed this a long time ago. Right now, he did not have any doubts and merely listened quietly.
"Our bloodline comes from a supreme existence in the multivariate universe," Urethai said slowly. Urethai slowly revealed the secrets that he knew, "According to what I know, someone stole that person's bloodline and then combined it with various other superior life forms, creating a batch of androids, or clones."
Fang Xingjian's gaze narrowed slightly as he said, "That supreme existence you're talking about … Could it be the Silver Demonic God from the 13 demonic gods?"
Through the narration of the Evil God Tribe's warrior, Urbien, and that giant Parosas from the previous world, Fang Xingjian knew that his appearance was very similar to the human form of that legendary demonic god. The Evil God Tribe's warrior had even mistaken him for him before.
However, hearing this, Urethai shook his head. "It's possible, but I can't be sure. The Silver Demonic God … Even though it's a few of his parallel universes' counterparts, they also have extremely strong powers in the multivariate universe. Moreover, other than Silver, White and Black of the 13 demonic gods also have similar clones. "Therefore, who knows?"
At the mention of this, a hint of mockery flashed in Urethai's gaze. It was as if he was mocking his own background and bloodline.
"You're saying that my mother and I aren't mother and son, but sister and brother?" Fang Xingjian said with a frown.
"That's right. You, me, and Fang Yueru … Half of our bloodline comes from a human who looks similar to the Silver Demonic God, or perhaps the Silver Demonic God. However, the other half of our bloodline is different," Urethai said with a sigh. Urethai sighed and said, "Existences like us are hated and coveted by countless people across the multivariate universe. "Therefore, if there's no need, it's best that you don't casually reveal the origins of your bloodline in the future."
