Bitter Realm: Have the Four Realms been united today?

Chapter 15 The Restriction, the Unspeakable Secret

Although they agreed to become sworn brothers, Xiao Hengyi, Feiyu, and Xuanming still felt awkward.

Especially after arranging the sizes, they felt even more awkward for some reason.

To prevent Sen Yang from making demands such as blood oaths or vows, Xiao Hengyi quickly steered the conversation back on track.

"Feiyu, Xuanming, your situation is more dangerous, especially Xuanming, you are in the greatest danger."

"Why do you say that? Is there anything special about the world we live in?" Xuanming asked, puzzled.

Xiao Hengyi said with a serious expression, "The world where Senyang is located is a branch of the Bitter Realm World."

"In essence, it is still the world created by the Sun God and the Emperor of Abandoned Heaven, and the Sun God's original power will not be restricted."

"However, the world you live in was created by other gods."

"The primordial power of the Sun God will be rejected by the rules of your world, making it more difficult to utilize."

"It is not that the Sun God's original power is weak, but that we are too weak to exert its true power."

"Although we will not be killed by cultivators, if we suffer fatal injuries, we will fall into a vegetative state, similar to a vegetable."

"At this moment, the power of origin will spontaneously protect its master, forming a divine power shield."

"The shield protects us while slowly repairing our injuries."

"You will regain consciousness once your injuries are no longer life-threatening."

"However, the divine power shield is not indestructible; the primordial power of the gods can break it."

"The gods of the Flying Universe world have fallen into slumber after fighting with other deities since the creation of the world."

"But Xuanming, the world you live in has only recently been created."

"The creator god is not only alive, but also extremely concerned about things in the world."

"If you are in danger and God attacks, the shield will not be able to protect you at all."

"In addition, the power of the rules in that world is also stronger because of the existence of gods."

"You are the hardest person among us to wield power."

Upon hearing Xiao Hengyi say that gods still exist in his world, Xuanming instantly tensed up.

"Brother Xiao... how much do you know about the creator god of my world?"

"Is He from the lineage of the Sun God or the lineage of the Forsaken Emperor?"

"The God of Time said that His ideas are similar to those of the Sun God, and that He should be part of the Sun God lineage, but I'm not entirely sure."

"By the way, besides the Cosmic Celestial, there is also a Holy Spirit, who should also be a deity."

"Should?" Xiao Hengyi's uncertain choice of words made Xuanming suddenly feel that his older brother seemed a bit unreliable.

Upon realizing Xuanming's thoughts, Xiao Hengyi felt somewhat annoyed.

"There's so much to prepare for this regression; we didn't have time to ask about many things in detail."

"According to the myth of time, the Holy Spirit seems to be a deity of the six heavens, but different from other creator gods."

"I'm not quite sure what the difference is between them either."

Xuanming also understood that Xiao Hengyi couldn't possibly consider everything thoroughly.

He stopped asking questions and simply stated his own thoughts.

"If it can be confirmed that He belongs to the lineage of the Sun God, can I directly ask Him to help activate the formation?"

"Perhaps we can ask Him to activate all three formations, so we won't have to go through the trouble of finding the divine artifact."

"No, you absolutely cannot do this," Xiao Hengyi hurriedly stopped him.

"The world has been destroyed, and these events have been rewound in time. This information must not be known to any other god or even human in this universe except to the God of Time."

"Unless the time-traveling world replaces the real world, it will trigger a spacetime storm and destroy the universe."

"Everything except God will cease to exist."

"That's why I gave up my plan to ask the gods to help replenish the energy of the regression world and increase the chances of regression."

"To prevent cultivators in this world from using magic to directly probe our memories or trick us into revealing this matter, the God of Time has placed a restriction on our bodies."

"At this moment, we cannot describe these things to any person or god in any form except to one another."

"In my world, because of the agreement of the bet, the divine pillars remain intact, and the gods cannot directly attack me. But you are different."

"The God in your land can act without restraint; to you, God is not only not a helper, but may even be an enemy."

"If He knew that you were going to merge His world with other worlds."

"Since you cannot explain the real reason, He will definitely stop you, or even eliminate you."

The more Xiao Hengyi spoke, the more Xuanming considered, and the greater his doubts became, making him even more uncertain.

"Just how powerful can God be?"

"Unless there is an equal force to prevent or cover it up, there are no secrets in the world to God."

"But we don't have a destiny star, so God can't predict it, and He won't pay special attention to the fate of an ordinary person."

"So as long as you don't attract His attention, it's okay to hide your true origins."

Xiao Hengyi's answer relieved Xuanming; he still had room to maneuver.

But then he realized a fatal problem.

"I can gather power without Him noticing, but once the great formation is activated, such a commotion will surely alert Him."

"If He intervenes and stops me, I'll be powerless to do anything about it, and then I'll have no chance of succeeding at all?"

"You don't need to worry about that."

"Once the grand formation is activated, your world and my world will be connected."

"In other words, your world has now entered the game and will also be subject to the rules of the game."

"In this way, the creator god of your world can no longer intervene directly."

Xiao Hengyi cautioned, "Be extremely careful when gathering power, and don't let the gods discover the formation."

"Human cultivators will find it difficult to understand the mysteries of this formation in a short time, but gods can see the key to it with just a glance. At that time, our purpose will no longer be able to be hidden."

The darkness quietly faded away, and the world was once again awakened by the morning light.

The crimson dawn streamed through the carved wooden window, flowing silently onto the boy's pale face, giving him an ethereal rosy glow.

Wearing an indigo long gown, Xuanming sat upright at a mahogany table, mechanically shoveling white porridge into his mouth with a spoon in his right hand.

A faint red glow floated in the bowl, but the bamboo chopsticks beside it remained untouched.

Only her long eyelashes trembled slightly in the light and shadow, as fragile as if they had been burned.

His Adam's apple bobbed unconsciously as he swallowed the tasteless porridge, his mind already wandering far away.

"According to Xiao Hengyi's plan, I need to find a divine artifact containing the power of rules first."

"But I'm unfamiliar with this place and its people, and I'm also unfamiliar with the primordial power of the sun god."

"Since there's war here, the outside world must be far from peaceful. Leaving rashly like this might expose us to the ravages of war."

'And the wounds on the Soul Burial Emperor's body...'
