# Chapter 2864: The Reason...
Under everyone's tense gaze, that familiar heartbeat echoed through the void once more!
Jiangnan's Eternal Glazed Body emerged, returning to reality!
And the moment Jiangnan's body revealed itself, everyone present was astounded beyond measure!
Manti discovered in terror that she simply couldn't discern Jiangnan's rank!
All she knew was that Jiangnan was a Star Devourer!
And Jiangnan's body emanated a terrifying aura that surpassed everything, transcending all things!
It wasn't that feeling of being the center of the world, the sovereign, the Heavenly Emperor!
But rather a transcendent sensation of having this starry sky trampled beneath his feet!
The more one tried to feel it carefully, the more terrifying it became!
Manti's legs went weak, and she even felt an impulse to kneel before Jiangnan!
Fortunately, she kept her legs straight and didn't embarrass herself on the spot!
But what was this aura all about?
He'd only been inside the Final Black Hole for three months. What exactly had happened during that time?
And Jiangnan's current power...
Just how strong was it now?
Even Wang Youzhi was stunned. The aura of supremacy emanating from Jiangnan wasn't fake!
It even gave Black God the feeling that Jiangnan's level was now higher than his own!
This was insane!
With his sharp eyes, Wang Youzhi immediately noticed the changes in the Eternal Glazed Body. It seemed more advanced than when it had entered before!
And Wang Youzhi also detected the surging silver light within his body!
That silver light actually gave him a feeling of closeness, a sensation of "source" energy...
∑(°口°๑) "Little Brother D? You..."
But the moment Jiangnan saw Wang Youzhi, his eyes instantly reddened!
He took a step and lunged toward Wang Youzhi!
٩(๑ᵒ̴̶̷̥́3ᵒ̴̶̷̣̥̀)۶ "Big Bro! Woo~ I'll kiss you!"
As he spoke, he puckered his lips and aimed for Wang Youzhi's cheek!
Manti and the others nearly spit out a mouthful of old blood. Can't you stay cool for more than three seconds?
The moment you come out, you want to kiss a big man?
Good grief! Did Jiangnan suffer some kind of mental trauma inside the Final Black Hole?
Wang Youzhi: !!!
(͡⚆益͡⚆|||) "Stop! You stop right there, old man! I haven't washed my face since I created this account! You try kissing me and see what happens!"
Jiangnan's expression froze, and he directly spat on Wang Youzhi's face in disgust, even wiping his hand on his crotch!
This made Wang Youzhi bend over with a start!
Then Jiangnan's expression turned serious as he turned to look at Jiang Fan, about to speak!
Jiang Fan looked at the silver light surging within Jiangnan's body, his face showing no surprise...
"It's good that you've returned smoothly! How long did you stay inside? You absorbed the energy from that Sea of Energy too, right?"
Jiangnan looked at the surging silver light in Jiang Fan's starry sky and understood everything. It was exactly as he had guessed. Jiang Fan had also absorbed the Realm Source Energy!
Was it sent out through the stroboscopic disturbance just now, connecting to the main body?
"I call that sea the Realm Source Forbidden Sea, and the energy I named Realm Source Energy! I absorbed about 69 drops, plus some energy mist!"
When Jiangnan said this, Jiang Fan was directly stunned!
(°ー°٥) "You... you directly absorbed water droplets? 69 drops? This..."
Jiangnan was confused: (๑•̌.•̑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "Huh? Didn't you?"
Jiang Fan's eye twitched, then he shook his head: "I can only absorb some energy mist from the sea surface. Touching the Sea of Energy directly would erase my will..."
"You're different from me. Your physical body entered along with you. You have much more freedom to move in the Life Forbidden Zone than I do..."
Jiang Fan couldn't directly absorb Realm Source Water Droplets. But even the energy mist from the sea surface was sufficient for his needs!
Even though Jiangnan absorbed Realm Source Water Droplets, not much actually remained in his body!
At this moment, Wang Youzhi, Manti, and the others were all listening in confusion!
What were these two talking about?
What Realm Source Forbidden Sea? Energy mist?
But what Jiangnan cared about right now wasn't any of this. He directly asked Jiang Fan:
"You know, right? You've seen it too, right?"
"What is the truth? What kind of reality is hidden behind the altered reality?"
Jiang Fan was stunned, then his gaze grew profound: "It seems... you've found that answer?"
Jiangnan shook his head: "I haven't. The answer I found isn't the correct solution to the problem!"
"What was the original trajectory like?"
Jiang Fan's eyes met Jiangnan's directly as he said calmly: "Do you really want me to tell you?"
"The starting point of all this originates from you. The answer to this question can only be found and discovered by yourself!"
"I could tell you, but if it's conveyed through my mouth, it will destroy this incomplete loop!"
"The fragile reality will directly collapse. I once said that this world, this reality, isn't as solid as you imagine..."
"Even so, do you still want me to say it? It doesn't matter what kind of reality I exist in, but... what about you?"
Jiangnan was stunned, then let out a bitter laugh!
Yes, this was his own game. If Jiang Fan spoke and revealed it, he would also enter the game!
Before this loop was completed, bringing others in could lead to unpredictable consequences!
No one knew what would happen — whether the loop would become even harder to complete, or the altered reality might directly collapse...
Wang Youzhi was shocked. Altered reality?
Collapse? The original trajectory?
What exactly had Jiangnan seen inside the Life Forbidden Zone?
Manti was about to ask, but Wang Youzhi raised his hand to stop her!
This wasn't something others could participate in!
Jiangnan took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and nodded heavily!
"I understand! I'll find this answer myself!"
"I just want to know, how much time do I have left? The stroboscopic disturbance won't last forever. As reality progresses, one day it won't be maintainable, right?"
"Where in the future is that breaking point?"
Jiang Fan said calmly: "You still have time, but not much..."
"If you haven't found the answer by the time we reach that point, I will tell you. But what form it will take is beyond my ability to predict!"
Jiangnan breathed a sigh of relief. Good... there was still time...
There was still a chance to struggle!
Putting this matter aside for now, Jiangnan changed the subject!
"I didn't see your main consciousness in the Life Forbidden Zone!"
Jiang Fan nodded: "I know. I didn't see yours either. I roughly understand what's going on now!"
"The fifth-dimensional Life Forbidden Zone isn't simply a single place! Although we both entered the Life Forbidden Zone through the Final Black Hole..."
"While it's the same Life Forbidden Zone, it's not the same Life Forbidden Zone!"
Jiangnan was stunned: Σ(°△°|||) "W-What do you mean? The same place yet not the same place?"
Jiang Fan said calmly: "The Life Forbidden Zone, depending on the life form that enters, generates a personal Life Forbidden Zone specific to that individual!"
"Remember those pages and books formed by light dots? No matter how you move, those things follow you, don't they?"
"Although it's the same Life Forbidden Zone, and we were both inside just now, it's like we're each in our own parallel rooms, never able to meet!"
"You're in your room, I'm in mine. You'll never find me in the Life Forbidden Zone, and I'll never find you. In the Life Forbidden Zone, besides yourself, you'll never welcome a second person. It's eternal solitude, a room that only belongs to you!"
Jiangnan was horrified: ∑(°口°๑) "Damn! How can this be? Parallel rooms? Is this possible?"
Jiang Fan said calmly: "This is my inference. You know about the wave-particle duality of light, right? The observer theory! Waves and particles have two different forms of expression when observed and when not observed..."
"The fifth-dimensional Life Forbidden Zone is similar. Different people entering it will show different forms depending on the person, like parallel rooms. You and I see the same scenery, but we can absolutely never intersect..."
"The method of having you bring me out can, through this verification, be directly ruled out!"
Jiangnan gritted his teeth. But thinking about the countless possible pasts, presents, and futures, this characteristic of the Life Forbidden Zone wasn't hard to understand!
"This Life Forbidden Zone is truly twisted!"
"Since this method won't work, I'll get stronger. One day, I'll be able to move the Final Black Hole with my own power and create enough disturbance!"
"To save you!"
Jiang Fan shook his head again: "No need. You've already given your all for me. I appreciate the sentiment!"
"But... there's no chance. I've already tried, and the resistance is still too great, with no possibility at all!"
Jiangnan scratched his head: "It won't work? That resistance was enough for me to force my way out. You..."
Jiang Fan continued: "People are different, just like no two snowflakes in the world are exactly the same. You have qualities that I don't!"
"You have your areas of expertise, and I have mine. Just because you can do it doesn't mean I can too!"
"For my main body to come out, I need a sufficiently large disturbance to completely break the stable state of the Final Black Hole!"
Jiangnan hurriedly said: "Then I can help! As long as..."
Jiang Fan shook his head: "There's no time... Xun Zu's Divine Burial Shackles can't hold out that long!"
"You've already helped me a lot. I'll take care of the rest myself!"
"I've already thought of a new method. Though it's a bit crude, it will definitely allow my main body to leave the Life Forbidden Zone!"
"This is the best judgment I've made based on the current situation!"
Jiangnan asked curiously: "What method? Can I help?"
At this moment, Jiang Fan's gaze toward Jiangnan seemed to carry a hint of complexity...
"You can help me, but you won't be willing to..."
"I'm going to make the Final Black Hole erupt with a jet stream. Only then can I create enough disturbance for my main body to leave the Life Forbidden Zone..."
"And only the disturbance caused by the Final Black Hole's jet stream can allow me to overcome that resistance!"
The expression on Jiangnan's face froze, as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing!
"You... what did you say? Are you serious?"
Jiang Fan didn't speak. His pitch-black eyes only looked calmly at Jiangnan...
And Jiang Fan... wasn't the type of personality to make jokes!
Wang Youzhi opened his mouth wide, as if struck by lightning, a look of sudden realization on his face!
He couldn't help but take two steps back!
"That reason... now we have it..."
