Chapter 2646 Does the True Meaning Exist?
Qu Jianlei felt so helpless because, based on the other person's words and actions, he vaguely suspected that he might actually be that person!
However, he felt somewhat resistant to this inexplicable cause and effect that had come knocking on his door—he believed no cultivator would like it.
Upon hearing his sigh, even the True Venerables of Lianxing exchanged glances, their joy barely concealed!
That's right, the other party must already know what's going on, which is why they're so conflicted!
Upon hearing his words and seeing the expression on the other side, Han Li hurriedly said, "I was just asking casually, so please don't be stubborn."
“Fellow Daoist,” the withered True Venerable spoke up, “opportunities are always gambled on; the greater the danger, the greater the reward.”
"If I may ask, have you all decided how to navigate the path of distraction?"
Han Li pursed her lips, thinking to herself that she had been rash. If she had known this would happen, she would have been better off not saying anything.
Distractions... Upon hearing this, Qu Jianlei's interest grew slightly stronger.
In fact, he had been struggling with this question all along. How could he not understand the principle that the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish?
From the garbage planet to where he is now, every step has been fraught with danger, yet he has achieved true enlightenment.
However, the problem is... He looked at the six people around him, "Speak up, you'll all get dragged into this too."
If he were single, he wouldn't be afraid to gamble, but if he involved others... he wouldn't be able to think straight.
Xiaoyou's mouth moved slightly, but she ultimately held back, "You guys go first."
"Then let's take a gamble," Qingkong said naturally, as he was at the prime age to break through the Divided Aura.
This age range can only last for a maximum of another thousand years; once missed, it's truly gone.
“We are merely indirect causes and effects; if the world gives back to us… we can also benefit from it.”
"I don't care," Han Wei glanced at Xiao You and said frankly.
He's not young anymore, and has basically given up on the idea of breaking through to the Divine Realm; he'll just focus on supporting the person beside him.
"I don't care," Jin Ge replied casually. He could live for a long time. The key issue was whether or not to attempt to break through the Divine Realm.
Encountering some cause and effect, the negative impact doesn't matter, but on the positive side... after saving the world, it's normal to be challenged by a split spirit, right?
This time, Han Li and Xiao You were unusually in agreement: Qu Zhenzun, don't worry about us, just do what you think is right.
They are both young and have a higher tolerance threshold for negative impacts.
The key point is that both of them were young when they left their bodies and had high aspirations. Who wouldn't want to break through to the Divine Realm as soon as possible?
Moreover, despite being prodigies, they are both trapped in the path of distraction. Even if they fail this time, they may still gain some experience.
Finally, the true master of all things said he didn't mind taking the negative consequences—everyone dares to gamble, so why shouldn't he?
Qu Jianlei then realized that some of his worries were completely unnecessary!
He dared to take risks, and so did everyone else; he had ultimately underestimated the other True Venerables!
So he was left with one last question: "If it succeeds, and the world gives back, will that only become apparent tens of thousands of years later?"
This question stumped many of the True Venerables on the other side—who could possess such knowledge?
Finally, a woman's voice rang out, "The world should react quickly to the joy, and the afterglow of this opportunity should also be long-lasting."
"Greetings, Your Majesty," Qu Jianlei and the other six bowed in unison towards the empty starry sky.
"And...and the Great Lord!" The eight True Venerables from the Star Realm opposite were completely numb.
Kunxiu Zhenzun paused for a moment, then asked Han Li with a hint of excitement, "Logically speaking, each realm is different."
This is not considered disrespectful to the Great King. It involves the understanding of the Way and can be debated, as long as one pays attention to the wording and attitude.
Han Li replied casually, "This Great Lord governs... well, many minor realms, and is very knowledgeable!"
He almost blurted out "Three Thousand Minor Realms," but thankfully he stopped himself in time.
Taiyuan Hai's reputation and characteristics are quite well-known in the True Lord circle. Wouldn't this expose his own background?
"Oh, thank you for clearing up my doubts," Kunxiu Zhenzun nodded, her beautiful eyes darting around, seemingly lost in thought.
"I advise you not to participate blindly," the withered Venerable said calmly. "The karmic consequences are different for cultivators within and outside the domain!"
So he guessed it: this person was wondering whether to hitch a ride with the other person and enjoy some benefits together?
If she fails, the karma of the astral realm already rests on her, so she's not afraid of having more.
However, in this respect, the understanding of the withered true master was correct, and he immediately pointed out the problem.
Originally, they were all involved in the situation, and now they're working with an outside team trying to break things up... Could this be the same cause and effect?
“That makes sense,” True Venerable Riding Dog nodded in agreement. “Don’t mix them up.”
If the True Venerable of this realm insists on hitchhiking, he will lose face for everyone!
Moreover, if successful, the world's feedback is limited. If you interfere, won't it affect other people's benefits?
However, he could not say this outright. He could only say, "The True Venerables within the domain have been working tirelessly on this matter, which has its own benefits."
The two sides should be clearer about their boundaries. Is it appropriate to have such a lack of boundaries before the other side has even made a move?
"Thank you for reminding me, fellow Daoists," Kunxiu Zhenzun said sincerely, showing his understanding of propriety.
"Then let me share some of my thoughts," Qu Jianlei said decisively without further hesitation.
After sensing the decaying aura, he wondered if, as the world continued to decline, there would eventually be no core of the world remaining.
At the time, he didn't think about saving anything at all; all he was thinking about was what he could get out of it.
A world that is abnormally damaged has a core, but it's hard to say whether a world that dies naturally.
When he said this, True Venerable Riding a Dog shook his head, "Trying to repair it with the world's core? That's difficult, we've tried!"
This is a discussion about solutions, and it's okay for others to chime in. The real point is that we can effectively reduce detours by drawing on existing experience.
The cultivators of Lianxing have indeed made too many attempts, even creating several pieces of the world core for practical testing.
Unfortunately, while the core of the world wasn't entirely useless, its ultimate effect was poor, merely delaying its decline.
Essentially, it belongs to the category of patching and mending.
Qu Jianlei didn't take it to heart and said a little more. Originally, he didn't want to talk about it in such depth, but the gift wasn't given for nothing.
He believes that if the core of the world may not be safe, then... what will become of the true meaning of destiny?
At this point, others might not have understood, but Han Li did.
He had heard Qu Zhenzun mention what the two had discussed during the time he was held captive by the Divine Lord.
The Great King claimed that the true meaning of destiny could be extracted from the core of the world, and both of them agreed with this statement.
Thinking of this, he looked at Qu Zhenzun deeply and nodded slowly, "As expected of you, I couldn't sense it."
What he admired was that the other party truly understood the ways of creation; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to grasp the relevant inspiration.
Han Li himself also used the Creation Tempering Technique, but not only was the time shorter, but the degree was also relatively mild, far inferior to that of Qu Zhenzun.
Otherwise, since the two of them have similar understandings, it wouldn't be difficult to connect these key points. Why didn't I think of that?
Of course, perhaps the environment was too polluted at the time, and he didn't have time to think about it.
Han Li believes that it is not shameful to admit that others are excellent. At least they can still be full of inspiration in that kind of environment, which is remarkable!
However, others only vaguely understood: they could understand what was being said, but somehow they just couldn't quite grasp it.
However, Han Li refused to say anything more—this was something Qu Zhenzun obtained from the Great Lord through humiliation, so why should I tell you?
Having roughly grasped the logic, the withered True Venerable tentatively asked, "Use the true meaning of fate... to repair it?"
“Repairing isn’t enough,” Qu Jianlei shook his head and said thoughtfully, “I haven’t figured out what to do yet…”
"Saving the Sky's Fall is about overcoming tribulation, not repairing it. We need something else... Hmm, I have another idea."
Seeing him lost in thought, everyone remained silent and waited patiently.
Before long, a day had passed, and everyone had begun to be on guard. One of the True Venerables even took out an array plate.
Everyone knows that Qu Zhenzun is now deep in thought and absolutely cannot be disturbed.
"No!" The withered True Venerable shook his head at the other True Venerable, "Once the great formation is activated, it will block his perception of the realm..."
It's called a sensation, but it's actually a faint, ethereal feeling of emptiness within a boundary.
This feeling is very unfriendly to the True Venerable, but if it is gone, the mind may be affected, which is not good.
Once he said that, everyone understood. The True Venerable sighed with regret, "Then we can only increase our vigilance."
Two more days passed, but Qu Jianlei still made no move.
The Kun cultivator sent a divine sense to Han Li, "Fellow Daoist Duo... is this situation common?"
“Very common,” Han Li answered without hesitation. “I rarely submit to anyone in my life, but this guy…”
Everyone was getting rather bored, so the Dog-Riding True Venerable asked again, "The true meaning of destiny... what is it? It's mainly because it's not easy to find."
Before meeting that great ruler, Qu Jianlei always believed that fate had no true meaning.
These True Venerables now share this view, using an elusive treasure to avert the collapse of the heavens—isn't that a bit... something?
That is precisely why almost none of the hundreds of True Venerables had thought of such a method.
Even if someone could think of it, they probably wouldn't dare say it out loud—because it's too absurd.
When the withered Venerable asked whether the true meaning of fate could be used to repair the damage, he was merely asking a casual question and did not believe that it was necessarily possible.
"That's not something I can say," Han Li shook his head and said calmly, "Some inheritances are not something you can just listen to casually."
When it comes to inheritance, everyone can understand, even if it means facing a cataclysmic disaster.
Ultimately, this is a calamity for the entire Star Realm, and these people are cultivators from outside the realm. Even if they wanted to forcibly requisition them, they would lack a proper reason.
Not to mention whether they have the ability to actually do it.
However, the withered Venerable couldn't help but ask again, "Does this true meaning of destiny really exist?"
