Chapter 596 Exile
The scene disappeared into the palace.
Li Yuan looked at the empty hall, feeling sad and a little lost.
The youngest hunter of the Tianhuang tribe, a warrior who wanted to protect his relatives and friends despite life and death, a strange person who changed after his death...
After Jiang Shi became a monster, he was no longer the kind and honest young man he once was. He was muddle-headed, slaughtering living things and living on blood...
But he made the final choice. Even though he was driven by the killing instinct, he still gave everything to protect the ancestor of mankind.
The black blood blooming in the cold and silent starry sky was proof that Jiang Shi’s humanity had never completely disappeared.
While Li Yuan was sad, he couldn't help feeling confused and angry.
If the illusory fate created a monster along the so-called trajectory, why did it arrange for this unprecedented monster to die here?
"Chaos needs Gui to appear to bear the pain and despair of countless lives."
"They will be carriers of darkness and terror, given names of ominousness and disaster, and will help Chaos share the negative forces from living beings."
"Real ghosts cannot be killed in Chaos. They are like a curse carved by Chaos itself. Only by living forever can they bear the endless pain of the dark side of countless creatures for Chaos forever."
"As the first Gui, it will pose too great a threat to the entire Chaos once it matures. Chaos needs Gui to absorb the gradually accumulated negative forces, but it does not want to cultivate a monster that can threaten it."
"Under the push of some unknown force, it chose to detonate itself, but due to its immortality, it was lucky enough to escape from this chaos and go to an unknown dimension to create its own world. This is already the best outcome."
The indifferent Emperor of Heaven said a lot, which was unusual for him. Perhaps it was because he saw that Li Yuan was very emotional, or perhaps it was for some other reason.
He explained it very clearly, as if he wanted Li Yuan to understand some of the essence behind the matter.
Moreover, as the most powerful existence in the entire chaos, the Emperor of Heaven saw every detail after Jiang Shi’s self-explosion.
"A monster that bears the negative effects of Chaos, an undead trait... and... them?"
Li Yuan was still immersed in the previous words of the Emperor of Heaven and did not notice the meaning of the last sentence.
He remembered that when Jiang Shi escaped from the Haotian Secret Realm, he suddenly developed the ability to transmit infection.
It's like a push from somewhere unknown.
The bitten boy turned into a hideous monster, became an evil creature, and became bloodthirsty.
Chaos needs the existence of Weirdness, but it sensed a threatening tendency in Jiang Shi. Before Jiang Shi went to help Renzu, did it also affect its mind and cause it to deliberately harm some lives?
In other words, has the chaotic will in the dark already allowed Jiang Shi to pass on his strange characteristics?
Thinking of this, Li Yuan recalled the last words of the Emperor of Heaven.
"Old Zhang... um... Your Majesty the Emperor of Heaven, are you saying that Jiang Shi is not dead, but was exiled to an unknown dimension after self-destruction? Is it possible that he can create his own world?"
Li Yuan was a little excited.
Even if we are in different time and space dimensions, as long as we are not dead, we may see each other again in the future!
The Emperor nodded indifferently: "Not dead is true, and so is separation forever."
After this powerful monster was exiled by Chaos, there is no possibility for it to come back. Even if it were to be immortal and the world were to change for eternity, Li Yuan would never see it again.
However, with Li Yuan’s current strength, he is still unable to understand the root cause behind this.
Just like after the Three Realms were fully established, the Emperor of Heaven would also forbid Him from approaching...
Jiang Shi was abandoned by Chaos, and the Three Realms will eventually "abandon" Chaos.
A completely detached and independent world is like a child who has been born and grown up.
Chaos has no fixed form, just like the amniotic fluid that nurtures the embryo.
Once the 'child' is born and learns to breathe, it will have its own body balance and circulation. It is impossible for it to return to the 'amniotic fluid' environment. Otherwise, the 'child' will only be greeted by death and collapse.
Li Yuan listened to the word "goodbye" and was temporarily unable to consider the factors behind it.
From his perspective, he has even experienced time travel. Even if Jiang Shi is exiled to an unknown dimension, as long as he keeps hope, there will always be hope of seeing him again in the future...
Faced with such ignorant optimism, the Emperor of Heaven frowned slightly, but just sighed silently in his heart and did not expose it.
Perhaps he and his future self had met in the Wangyin Pool, or perhaps it was the reverse flow of cause and effect from eternity past that was reflected to the present. The Emperor of Heaven always felt that when he faced this kid named Li Yuan, a touch of humanity would always be born in his indifferent state of mind that overlooked the eternity.
'Perhaps, in the future, I will need this bit of so-called humanity.'
'Or... shouldn't.'
The Emperor of Heaven was somewhat silent. After thousands of years, he didn't want to think too much about it.
Even if he could jump out of the long river of time and space, sit back and watch the years change, the eras flow, and never get hurt, but it involves the future that is too far away, and he doesn't want to deliberately spy on it.
In the eyes of "Transcendence", the long river of time and space can flow linearly or occur in parallel, and all laws are meaningless.
If necessary, he could transcend, but he was the Emperor of Heaven, responsible for the fate of countless lives. If he forcibly peeked into the distant future, saw something, and made changes...
This eternal time and space that has already been created will collapse.
All living beings born during this period will lose the meaning of their original existence.
Other beings, whether they are powerful or Dao masters, may dare to boldly "manipulate" something when it comes to matters of time and space.
But the only exception is the Emperor of Heaven. The existence of the Emperor of Heaven, carrying this title, represents order and rules.
The Emperor of Heaven takes the attitude of letting everything happen as it happens regarding all the trends of time and space, and will never easily change the future or the past.
And, the most important thing is...
Because of his eternal immortality, the Emperor of Heaven exists in every moment of time and space.
If you want to reverse the future and the past, it is equivalent to "negotiating" with your past or future self.
The time and space are different, and perhaps the mentality and personality will also be different. Once a disagreement arises, it will be very troublesome.
Therefore, even though Zhang Tiansheng in white from later generations appeared through the Wangyin Pool, after delivering some information, he handed over the dominant power to the Emperor of this time and space, and then left without staying.
The Emperor of Heaven is approaching "infinity" because he lives in every time and space; but the Emperor of Heaven is also unique. Even if all the power of chaos is gathered, he cannot be replicated. There is only one "true" Emperor of Heaven in the world.
If two Heavenly Emperors appeared in the same space and time, it would be a pure disaster for the eternal space and time.
