The Self-cultivation of the Passerby Male Protagonist

"But it's not true. The sky can be conquered, the moon can be defiled, and the stars can actually be destroyed. It's just that we didn't realize it until that day came."

Shenqi's voice was gradually tinged with despair: "So I am very curious, really curious, since eternity does not exist, distance is not a luxury, and stars will be destroyed, so why are you still alive?"

It was a very vicious greeting, but surprisingly Huo Qing'e only accepted it with a smile.

She has endured this curse countless times.

Huo Qing'e smiled, there was no confusion in her eyes, just as she once firmly believed——

"I just want to bring everything to an end."

Chapter No.17 The End of the Spiral

"Is the world we see with our own eyes real?"

"Sensation, perception, memory, thinking, imagination, language—all kinds of processes transform the knowledge we acquire into 'the world we see', that is cognition."

"Is the world seen by worms on the ground the same as the world seen by them after they pupate into butterflies?"

"Humans call the powerful monsters they see natural disasters, but they don't know that in the face of more powerful beings, those natural disasters are just as powerless as newborn babies."

"So, back to the original question, is the world we see with our own eyes the so-called reality?"

This is a question and answer, or Huo Qing'e's one-man show, because her audience is only one, and she remains silent as always.

But Huo Qing'e didn't care, she hadn't finished speaking yet.

"Cognition is highly subjective, and its degree of ambiguity will lead to too many different views depending on the angle, so let's try to revise our previous conclusions."

"Is the world seen by most people's eyes the real one?"

"I think this is the closest to the correct answer? Perhaps this is the answer of most people, and it is what most people have always believed."

"But this is not your answer, is it, Shenqi? You only believe in your own choice."

"Unfortunately, you are wrong, but it's okay, because everyone is wrong."

"What is the world like, how to define everything in the world, this is not something that can be solved simply by a few obeying the majority."

"Right and wrong, justice and evil, truth and falsehood, from the endless vast sky to a speck of dust that no one cares about, who can define their value? No one."

"Because the world itself has given value to their existence."

"A stone can be a weapon in the hands of people, but it becomes garbage when it is thrown on the side of the road, but to the world, the stone is still a stone, and its value will not change because of where it is. "

"...Are you trying to say, me, and her, everything we do is meaningless?"

This was the first sentence Shenqi said after thinking for a long time, but she got Huo Qing'e a long silence.

"Let's use an analogy, Shenqi."

Huo Qing'e raised a finger and said, "If you could turn back time, if you had another chance to choose, what would you do?"

"I never felt that my choice was wrong," Shenqi said firmly: "The ideal land that Adam expected is the future I expected, and I have never regretted it."

"Well, Shenqi, if this is the case, do you think that everything you have done is 'correct'?"

"nature."

"That is to say, if you were really given another chance to choose and turn back time, you would still make the same choice, wouldn't you?"

"Yes."

Shenqi's answer without confusion made Huo Qing'e smile, the playfulness in her smile was like candy obtained as a prank, sweet and sticky to the teeth.

"You see, the answer has already been obtained, hasn't it?" Huo Qing'e said lightly: "If you think that everything you do is correct, even if you go back in time, you will still make the same choice, then the result is not already doomed ?"

"..."

"You will still use the curse to trap Chang'e in the Guanghan Palace, you will still stop in the Demon Realm because you lost the instrument of great sin and your body, Adam will still become what it is now, and nothing will change."

"You just asked me if what you're doing still makes sense, and my answer is—it doesn't make sense."

"The proof is that even if time goes back countless times, you will still make choices based on your own cognition and judgment, which will lead to this series of causal loops. In this case, the result will not change in any way."

"You think everything you've done is right, and the result now is the result of your choice to be 'right'."

"That's right, Shenqi, every decision you make, every step you take is correct, and it belongs to you. Because of this, no matter what you do, there will be no change in the future .”

"Because, fate has long been doomed."

"..."

Shenqi was completely stunned by Huo Qing'e's words, she suddenly found that something she had been insisting on had collapsed.

Yes, Shenqi has been regretting everything that happened now, but in retrospect, everything in the past was her own choice.

Now she has lost her body and the weapon of sin, because she was seduced by the weapon of gluttony and led to degeneration, she chose to eat herself, and became the new will that resides in the weapon of gluttony—the cemetery Lord.

As a result, she lost her body, and at the same time, the weapon of great sin was snatched by Chang'e.

But is she doing it wrong?not at all.

If she was given another chance, she would still choose to accept the power of the weapon of great sin and choose to fall, because only she who became the master of the cemetery could really help Adam.

She desperately hurt both sides to strip her soul from the instrument of great sin, just to cast the curse of impending death on Chang'e. Did she do something wrong?not at all.

If she is given another chance, she will still choose to die with the other party, because Chang'e is one of the few people who can influence Adam.
