The Martial Unity

Chapter 1968 Potential Bargain

"And how would you do that?" Kane raised an eyebrow.

"...We offer him freedom," Rui replied coldly. "...I have a feeling that the Divine Doctor would rather not die in this place."

Rui didn't know if his soul could really transfer to another body if it was trapped in a four-dimensional space-time.

He didn't really know the mechanics of souls at all in the first place. Were they bound by space and time like other material phenomena were?

Considering that his soul had gone to an entirely different world, he could not help but wonder if they truly were. For one, he didn't even know if he was in the same universe as Earth. Even if he was, they clearly weren't anywhere near Earth considering how absurdly enormous Gaia was. The Hubble Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope would have long spotted Gaia if Gaia was in the intergalactic neighborhood of Earth.

Based on the evidence that he had at hand from his own reincarnation in a different world and the Beggar Sage's words regarding soul transference, souls were clearly some form of astral phenomena that he had yet to come into touch with. Perhaps they were an extra dimension of astral reality that only the highest of Realms, such as the Sage Realm and Transcendent Realm, could access.

It may have even been the source of power for one of the two Realms.

It would make sense why he hadn't learned anything about astral phenomena if it was truly the focus of higher Realms.

"...Even if he can commence the soul transference ritual despite being trapped in a four-dimensional manifold, it's clear he would rather escape physically," Rui quietly remarked. "...Otherwise, he would not have spent so many months here. That gives us leverage. I can offer to free him in return for healing my father."
