Capítulo 1907: Chapter 1907: Hongng’s Speculations
Hongng uses his path as a sandbox to deduce the eternal ways.
“Mount Lu?”
Hongng’s expression shifted slightly. He didn’t know Mount Lu but understood the aning in Chu Yuan’s words.
“I am indeed making deductions, but deducing is always a form of speculation. My guesses cannot perceive the entirety.”
Hongng sighed lightly. Everything is just empty talk, but his power also grows ever stronger through these deductions, and many know of his mysterious strength.
“It’s an unavoidable matter. The principle is simple, but breaking the principle is difficult,” Chu Yuan said.
“Indeed, it’s unavoidable.”
Hongng said, “On my eternal path, every era also experiences great tribulations. Those who are not primordial gods die imdiately, and I let them go through trials in the Hongng Universe.”
“Seeing the leopard through a tube,” Chu Yuan said.
“Actually, I have a few ideas. Does the Emperor want to hear them?”
Hongng, like a scholar, was willing to share what he had researched with others.
“I am very interested,”
Chu Yuan said.
“My first guess is that the eternal path is an infinitely vast world, expanding, constantly expanding. It’s not that it has no boundary, but that its expansion speed is sothing we can’t keep up with, so we perceive it as limitless, when in fact, it has a boundary, but our speed cannot reach its boundary.”
Hongng continued, “I have spent dozens of eras flying continuously, never reaching the boundary. Each era’s transition seems like another expansion to it.”
Unlike Hongng, Chu Yuan didn’t have that kind of leisure.
“This is possible. Within my universe, I deliberately expanded it once. Even the origin gods exploring it couldn’t keep up with the rate of my expansion.”
Hongng put the theory into the sandbox for deduction.
He is the master of his sandbox.
“This is possible, but there are contradictions within,”
Chu Yuan said.
Perhaps within the heavens and earth, they themselves are incredibly small, like specks of dust.
“Another possibility is that the eternal path we live on might very well be an eternal sandbox world created by an exceedingly powerful divine being. Just like , in my sandbox, I am the creator. I can change all the rules; if I make you unable to be eternal, you cannot beco eternal, unable to transcend the creator’s cultivation!”
Hongng’s words were astonishing.
Anyone who can cultivate to the eternal level is of utmost reverence, yet who could accept that their existing world is fashioned by a greater being? They are rely creatures being watched, kept within, their every move under another’s control.
If this is indeed the truth, then even a mighty heart would shatter, unable to accept it.
Chu Yuan was silent.
He looked at the creatures of the Hongng Universe, stretched out his palm, and a dreamlike world erged, playing out countless creatures.
As he clenched his fist, all the creatures perished. He then said, “This is possible as well.”
Hongng glanced at Shenwu and admired the unwavering firmness in his heart, despite his own conjectures. He continued, “I have one last idea. Could it be that the eternal path itself is a special life form? It is alive, a being akin to the universe, also cultivating and growing stronger.”
“All three speculations are reasonable,”
Chu Yuan calmly said, “This actually already encompasses the essence that eternity might exist.”
He nodded; Hongng had already included many possibilities.
“Speculation will always remain speculation. Even if I guess correctly, what then? It’s still impossible to break the shackles,”
Hongng said. “I wonder what the Emperor thinks.”
“Regardless of what eternity is, in my eyes, it’s like a circle, and we are all within this circle,”
Chu Yuan drew a circle with his finger.
“A circle?”
Hongng first paused and then praised, “The Emperor’s understanding is insightful. A circle also represents an infinite cycle. Each era is indeed a form of infinite cycle.”
To achieve such an understanding in less than an era of cultivation.
“To break the circle, one must first master this circle. If you cannot control the circle, how can you talk about transcending it?”
Chu Yuan asked.
“Thus, the Emperor aspires to beco the strongest,”
Hongng said.
“Indeed, the path of the strongest allows no drag. When faced with such a person, my only approach is direct annihilation,”
Chu Yuan’s tone was harsh and indifferent. “Hongng, what are your thoughts?”
“My thoughts are simple. Who becos the strongest is of no concern to . I have a detached mind, uninterested in conquest. Did the Holy Emperor beco eternal as the strongest? Even the Heaven-slaying Emperor and Pan God Emperor ultimately perished to pierce through, and they also failed, leaving behind only their divine thods. So being the strongest doesn’t ensure eternity.”
“I will not participate in strife. re fighting can’t lead to eternity. I will only research and comprehend, but if soone truly paves an eternal path, I would join without hesitation, even if it leads to my demise.”
“Even if I cannot be eternal, as long as I see the hope of eternity, that is enough.”
Hongng’s aning was clear.
He would not involve himself in battles or hinder Chu Yuan, and likewise, Hongng would not assist him in becoming the strongest.
He had long seen through the futility of strife.
But one point remains.
If Chu Yuan opens up an eternal path, Hongng would join in, offering his wisdom, strength, and even life.
What is the strongest?
re transient smoke, as epheral as castles in the air, utterly unreal.
He had no interest at all.
With great power, why not compete to be the strongest? Because he saw through it; it was pointless.
“I will rember your words,”
Chu Yuan continued observing the operations of the Hongng Universe.
Next, Chu Yuan spent so ti contemplating within the Hongng Universe.
Hongng gave Chu Yuan great insights.
While Chu Yuan hadn’t lived as long as Hongng, his domineering nature and mysterious system often provided precise answers that made Hongng nod repeatedly.
Engaging with powerful beings was sothing Hongng enjoyed greatly.
Thus, Hongng’s reputation among many eternals was excellent.
Of course, his imnse power also ant few dared provoke him.
In such exchanges, Chu Yuan’s strength also grew.
“Hongng, the enlightennt from your eons of comprehension has greatly inspired . I can feel significant growth in my eternal path. The pursuit of cultivation is the pursuit of reality,”
Chu Yuan was about to say farewell to Hongng.
“Exchanging insights with the Emperor has equally been enriching for . If you ever need , activate this Hongng Token, and I will sense it,”
Hongng was silent for a mont, then continued, “If you truly forge an eternal path, I will give everything. I have lived long enough; there aren’t many years left I can endure.”
He knew.
Because of Chu Yuan’s appearance, the eternal path had once again transford dramatically. He deeply longed for soone capable of paving a true path toward the end of his life.
Death does not frighten him.
What he fears is that even in death, he cannot witness true eternity, rendering all his efforts in vain.
Thus, he established Hongng College to pass on his comprehension.
“There will be one,”
Chu Yuan bade farewell to Hongng and returned directly to the second city.
