Chapter 1193: An unacceptable reality

Views:

Regarding the origin of this small world, it is still difficult for the indigenous people of the small world to understand, especially since they have no ability to go out at all. Many times, if you want to know what something looks like, you have to stand outside and look at it. You can't see the mountain from the mountain, and you can't see the house from the house.

If it were an ordinary small world, similar to the realm of the monastic world, with the strength of the Sun King and other indigenous strongmen, they would actually be able to go outside and see the world long ago. Unfortunately, the outside of this small world is not an endless void, but is shrouded by the power of evil spirits from outside. Unless someone's strength reaches a level that can compete with such a force, it will be impossible to break through the blockade.

You must know that the demon outside that day is a true immortal level existence, and this true immortal level is only a lower limit, which does not mean that the strength really does not stop there. Therefore, even if the evil demon from outside the world is dead and most of his power has been dissipated, the remaining power is still difficult for the natives of the small world to break through.

Even Ye Zan and others were able to come in so easily because Ye Zan had the core of the evil spirit outside that day as the key. If he didn't have the heart core of the demon outside the world, he might really have to invite his colleagues to help.

And there is another point. The strength of these indigenous strongmen in the small world comes from the small world, or it comes from the leftover power of evil spirits from outside the world. If they want to break through the blockade outside the small world, it is equivalent to lifting themselves up, which is almost impossible to implement.

In fact, the so-called "jumping out of the three realms and not in the five elements" among ascetics in the world of monasticism is a pursuit of escaping from the constraints of this world.

Don't look at Ye Zan and the others. They have left the realm where they live. They can see the appearance of that realm in the endless void, and they can also run to the wilderness to do this and that. But in fact, from the perspective of the entire monastic world, they did not really jump out of this world, they just moved from one continent to another.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Sun King is the pinnacle of power in this world, and the only thing that weighs on his head is this world. He also knew clearly that if he wanted to break through the limits, he had to break out of the constraints of this world. Therefore, he is quite interested in the origin, or origin, of this world.

However, Ye Zan's inquiry will inevitably give people the illusion of being condescending, and a proud person like the Sun King will easily overthink it.

"This... I'd better just talk about it directly!" Ye Zan originally wanted to explain more, but thinking that the more he explained, the more irritating it would be, he simply stopped worrying about this issue.

Moreover, in the face of the temptation to step out of the small world, what are some minor misunderstandings now? In the face of actual interests, let alone a small misunderstanding, even if you really want to lose face, I'm afraid not many people can refuse.

"I'm listening!" the Sun King said expressionlessly.

"We come from a world outside this world. Our world was once invaded by people from another world. And those invaders are what we call demons from outside the world. In the final decisive battle, countless strong men on both sides fell. The corpses of those fallen strong men were scattered all over the world, and the collapsed power formed forbidden areas. I got a clue about the forbidden area, and led my companions to explore the forbidden area. After entering the corpses of the demons outside the world, I came to yours. This world." Ye Zan gave a brief introduction to the other party about the origin and purpose of his group in words that were easy for the other party to understand.

Of course, in Ye Zan's introduction, there is actually an answer to the origin of this small world, but it may not be so direct. Ye Zan was also worried that the other party might find it difficult to accept, so he used this somewhat cryptic way to tell the answer the other party wanted to know.

"What do you mean, is there any passage in the corpse of the evil demon from outside the world that connects to us?" It's not that the Sun King couldn't hear what Ye Zan really meant, but he just didn't want to think about another, bigger possibility.

Originally, in the view of the Sun King, Ye Zan and others were aliens from another world outside the small world. The two worlds should be similar existences. Just like in the world of science and technology, you are an earthling, he is a Martian, and he is an alien to you, but everyone is still in the same solar system, or in the same universe, so there is no such thing as "higher or lower" divided.

However, what the Sun King guessed but did not want to believe was that the true meaning of Ye Zan's words meant that the two sides were not so equal.

It's like, my surname is Wang and your surname is Li. We are not the same family, but we are about the same age, so we can be friends as equals. However, I thought we were the same generation, but you said that I am the same generation as my grandfather and I am a grandson. Who can accept it so easily

If people in the technological world heard an alien say that the universe where the earth is located is just a fish tank in the alien's home. Such a gap may make many people feel very awkward. In other words, if a character in a novel realizes that the world he lives in is just a novel, that person will probably collapse.

"Actually, Sun King, you already understand what I mean." Ye Zan said without mercy after hearing the other party's somewhat self-deceptive question. He couldn't help it, reality was reality, and it couldn't be made different by beautifying it with words.

The main reason why Ye Zan found the Sun King and other indigenous heroes was to finally collect the corpses of the evil spirits from outside the world, rather than simply to help these people understand the world and get out of this small world. For Ye Zan, the corpse of this demon from outside the world is more valuable than these natives in the small world, and "talking" is just to make it easier for him.

Faced with Ye Zan's words, the Sun King fell into silence, obviously it was still difficult to accept this fact for a while. The world you are in is just a product of the corpses left behind by a powerful being in the other world's world after your death. So who are these people who were born in this world and thrive in this world

In fact, when it comes to such issues, what really hits people the hardest, or is difficult to accept, is the ambiguity of the meaning of personal existence. Although, compared to the characters in the novel, natives like the Sun King do not completely deny their own existence. However, the feeling that my world is just an accidental derivative, and that I am the by-product of this derivative, is really uncomfortable.

"Sun King, I think you are thinking too much. No matter what this world is like, you, like other creatures in this world, are living here. If you want to change this small world into a new one, It's a village in the big world, and you are from this village, so what's so hard to accept?" Seeing the other person's silence, Ye Zan immediately guessed what the other person was struggling with, so he tried to persuade him.

Ye Zan's persuasion is somewhat suspicious of changing the concept, but it cannot be said to be completely unreasonable. In fact, compared with these people in the small world, how do people like Ye Zan and others from the big world know that their big world is not a small world in the eyes of another unknown existence.

After all, no one is more advanced than anyone else, and no one is more fortunate or unlucky than anyone else.

"So, your real purpose is to rule this small world in your eyes, or to destroy it?" The Sun King quickly adjusted his mood. After all, he was a man who had done great things before, and he asked Ye Zan about his doubts.

Although Ye Zan's previous introduction was only a few sentences, it also revealed a lot of information.

Explore the forbidden area, explore all the way to the corpse of the evil demon outside the sky, and have a way to enter this small world. Is it just to come in and take a look? Exploration, to put it bluntly, is to hunt for treasures. Ye Zan and the others are digging graves, naturally in order to obtain valuable things.

In the opinion of the Sun King, what kind of treasure is more valuable than a world? Owning a world and enslaving all living things in the world is what many villains love to do!

"Domination? Destruction? The Sun King thinks too much!" Ye Zan smiled and shook his head.

"What? Isn't it? Are you here to save the world? Are you willing to take huge risks to come here for the hope and future of hundreds of millions of creatures in this world?" Regarding Ye Zan's answer, the Sun King was obviously not convinced. I don’t believe it either.

Thinking about the Sun King, a powerful being who could give birth to the world, the forbidden area formed by his power must be extremely dangerous. Although he didn't know what hardships Ye Zan and his party had experienced on the way here, he could still imagine that it was definitely a narrow escape. Under such circumstances, you said that you only wanted to do good people and good things, for the hope and future of this small world, and had nothing else to do. To be honest, no matter how upright a person is, I am afraid that he cannot do this.

"Haha, the Sun King really thinks too much! Of course I have a plan when I come here, otherwise I wouldn't take those risks. However, what we plan for is not this world, nor the creatures in this world. There is no need for me to hide it, what we want is the corpse of the evil spirit outside that day." Ye Zan simply stated the true purpose of his party.

Indeed, to Ye Zan, although this small world has many resources, it really does not have much value. Your small world, including the creatures in it, were all conceived from the corpses of evil spirits from outside the world. How could it be more valuable than the corpse itself

"Didn't you already say that this world was born from the corpse of the evil demon from outside the world? You are targeting the corpse of the evil devil from outside the world, regardless of how it will be used in the end. How can this world not be affected at all? I Although people from this world may be inferior in your eyes, it does not mean that they do not understand this truth." Facing Ye Zan's explanation, the concerns in the Sun King's heart did not diminish at all.

This is easy to understand, just like the so-called "when the nest is overturned, the eggs will not be intact". If you want to demolish this house, can the swallow's nest under the eaves be preserved? If you want to use this tree to make rafters, can the branches and leaves on the tree still be left on it? The small world was conceived by the corpse of the evil demon outside the world, and its existence must depend on the corpse. Without the corpse of the evil demon outside the world, can the small world still exist

"So, aren't we here to find you? Otherwise, do you think we came here, why didn't we start collecting the corpses immediately?" Faced with the Sun King's doubts, Ye Zan did not become angry at all when his thoughts were revealed, but instead He asked the other party with a normal expression.

"Then I would like to know why you are looking for me. Don't you want me to betray the world?" The Sun King asked without any sign of weakness.

"Alas!" Ye Zan sighed. He had actually expected the Sun King's reaction.

Ye Zan actually understood the other party in his heart. When faced with a group of aliens, everyone would first speculate on the other party with the greatest malice. This is called "being on guard against others." It is natural to be on guard, especially when the other person is an "upright" person. And the reason why he sighed was not that there was nothing he could do against the other party, but he was a little worried about whether he could convince the other party.

"What, you have nothing to say?" the Sun King said coldly.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just thinking about how to get you to accept it." Ye Zan waved his hand to signal the other party to calm down, and then continued: "It is imperative for us to collect the corpse of this evil demon from outside the world. However, it is not that I have not considered how to properly arrange this world and the creatures in this world. In fact, although this world is attached to the corpse, it is not impossible to separate from it. The reason you are here to talk is to find a way to get the best of both worlds and collect the corpses without affecting the world. Otherwise, there is no need for me to come to you, or even show up in front of anyone."

Collecting corpses and peeling off the world sounds a bit unbelievable, and the Sun King also does not believe Ye Zan so easily. However, when he saw Ye Zan's attitude and explained it to him again and again, he temporarily let go of the hostility in his heart.

"If you really want to achieve what you said, I'm afraid it won't be an easy thing!" The Sun King said in a slightly calmer tone.

The Sun King also had worries in his heart. Now that this world has been discovered by outsiders, apart from the group of people in front of him, who knows if other people will come in the future. You know, the powerful existence in the outside world can give birth to such a world in the corpse, which shows how terrifying the upper limit of the strength in the outside world is. The strength of this group of people now is beyond his ability to see through. If there are more powerful people coming, what should they use to resist
