Chapter 1554 The Gate of Truth
Hearing these words, Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan were both stunned.
“What did you say?” Lin Qiye’s brows immediately furrowed.
“Don’t worry, I’m not saying the Great Xia God wants to kill him. Remember what I told you on the boat last time?” Left Qing looked into Lin Qiye’s eyes and slowly said, “An Qingyu is the nightmare of the world that the Future King Face mentioned, not just because of his stance… but more because of his identity.
An Qingyu is the [Door Key].”
A thunderbolt flashed through Lin Qiye’s mind.
“He’s one of the three pillar gods of the Cthulhu system?” Cao Yuan couldn’t help but laugh, “How is that possible? He’s been carrying out missions with us for years, progressing from ‘Pool’ level until now… how could he possibly be a deity of Cthulhu?”
“Let me finish first.” Left Qing shook his head and continued, “An Qingyu is the [Door Key], but only part of it… According to the Heavenly Venerable’s speculation, when the Cthulhu system first invaded Earth, the [Door Key] was killed by several ancestral gods working together. Its body shattered into countless fragments of the Door of Truth, falling into eternal death slumber.
The [Door Key] is time-space itself. After it fell into death slumber, fragments of its body were caught in chaotic time-space. Most were banished to the end of time-space, but a few scattered throughout the river of time where humans exist.
Some of these fragments were recovered by Cthulhu deities, like the bubble Zeus used to banish us, but others were never found… If our guess is correct, An Qingyu merged with one of the [Door Key] fragments when he was still an infant, becoming part of the Door of Truth.
Strictly speaking, from that moment on, he was no longer human, but the Door of Truth itself.
His [Only Correct Solution] is a manifestation of the Door of Truth’s power. He inherited the omniscient and omnipresent power of the [Door Key], able to deconstruct all worldly matter and forbidden domains, divine domains, and make them part of himself. The more he deconstructs, the more powerful he becomes, and the more complete his control over the Door of Truth becomes…
When he fully controls the entire Door of Truth and becomes the only omniscient and omnipresent truth in the world, the [Door Key] will awaken from its eternal slumber. At that time, he will become the [Door Key].”
This speech left both Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan bewildered.
Lin Qiye stood dazed for a long while before digesting this information, then spoke in disbelief: “Even if he is a fragment of the Door of Truth… that doesn’t mean he’ll definitely grow into the [Door Key], right? As long as he doesn’t continue to deconstruct the world, wouldn’t that be enough?”
Left Qing sighed helplessly:
“Once, the Heavenly Venerable thought the same… After the Future King Face warned Primordial Heavenly Venerable, he had been secretly observing An Qingyu. When he discovered the Door of Truth fragment in An Qingyu’s soul, he had already deduced the cause of everything.
Actually, the most secure method at that time would have been to kill An Qingyu directly and completely destroy that fragment of the Door of Truth. But the Heavenly Venerable was merciful and didn’t do so, instead sending you all to the National Fate Island.
There, you wouldn’t have contact with the outside world, wouldn’t participate in wars, and An Qingyu wouldn’t be able to deconstruct more matter. Perhaps in that place, the revival of the Door of Truth could be suppressed… But when the Heavenly Venerable visited the island again and saw An Qingyu’s condition, he knew this idea wasn’t feasible.
The Door of Truth under An Qingyu’s control was gradually taking shape. Even if he didn’t actively deconstruct matter, the Door of Truth would automatically absorb worldly rules to grow, just at a slower pace than usual. Since isolating you all didn’t work, he didn’t intervene when you broke out of the island.
He had planned to deal with the Door of Truth after the war ended, but unexpectedly, An Qingyu actively drew in Cthulhu’s contamination and used the power of the Door of Truth to reverse-deduce our time-space location.
This sounds simple, but no one in the world except An Qingyu could do it, because the fragment that banished us is part of the [Door Key]… Only the [Door Key] itself could calculate the time-space coordinates that the [Door Key] fragment leads to.
An Qingyu saved everyone, but the Door of Truth, sensing Cthulhu’s contamination, began to revive at an alarming rate. The Heavenly Venerable had no choice but to cut off An Qingyu’s contaminated soul while simultaneously planting a restriction deep in his soul, hoping to suppress the growth of the Door of Truth in this way…”
“Wait!” Lin Qiye seemed to realize something, “You mean… the side effects?”
“That’s right. An Qingyu’s symptoms during this period aren’t side effects of his soul being cut… but due to the restriction left by the Heavenly Venerable.” Left Qing sighed deeply, “The Heavenly Venerable’s restriction did effectively seal the Door of Truth, so An Qingyu can’t use his abilities and even his thinking is hindered.
To complement the effect of the restriction, I also had Dr. Li prescribe a special formula for him that could suppress his soul’s self-healing.
But unexpectedly, the aura of the Door of Truth’s revival attracted the Mi-Go’s descent… They frantically sought An Qingyu because he is the God of Truth they worship. Have you noticed that after the Mi-Go descend, they search for signals like transmission towers? That’s them communicating with the Door of Truth and sacrificing themselves through their deaths…
As the Door of Truth grows stronger, the Heavenly Venerable’s restriction can barely contain it anymore, so we must bring him to the Heavenly Court and thoroughly deal with the Door of Truth.”
As Left Qing’s words fell, the entire office sank into dead silence.
“Deal with it… how?” Cao Yuan’s voice was somewhat hoarse.
Left Qing looked at the two of them without speaking.
Seeing his expression, Lin Qiye and Cao Yuan’s pupils slightly contracted.
Since An Qingyu had already become part of the Door of Truth, destroying him along with his soul would prevent the [Door Key]’s revival. This was something they could figure out without Left Qing explaining further – the simplest and most effective solution.
Cao Yuan slammed both hands heavily on the table and stood up abruptly, his eyes fixed on Left Qing:
“Commander Left… what are they going to do to An Qingyu?”
“How they’ll handle it… I’m not sure either, but you should prepare yourselves mentally.” Left Qing paused, his expression incredibly complex, and slowly said, “This world cannot have another [Door Key]…”
“They want to kill him?” Cao Yuan’s breathing grew heavy, “But he’s An Qingyu!! Just days ago he risked his life to save all of Great Xia, and now they want to kill him?!”
Cao Yuan had witnessed An Qingyu transplanting that arm onto himself. He knew better than anyone what kind of determination An Qingyu had made and what kind of pain he had endured in the process, so naturally he couldn’t accept this outcome.
“Cao Yuan, calm down.” Lin Qiye stood up and pressed on Cao Yuan’s shoulder, saying in a deep voice, “If the Great Xia God wanted to kill Qingyu, Tai Gong could have done it just now… Perhaps they have other methods, who knows.”
