Chapter 1771: Outside the Body
"As for me..." Zhang Fan remained silent.
He did not lose himself because of Zhen Shiyin's few words of flattery.
But in a sense, his position is basically the same as Zhen Shiyin, or all living beings in the mountains and seas.
The mountains and seas are submerged, reincarnation ends, and everything belongs to one person.
What the Lord of the True and False Dao did to prove his Dao was truly appalling.
Whether for their own survival or driven by moral conscience, the monks in the mountains and seas should unite and stop him.
Of course, the premise is...
Everything Zhen Shiyin said is true.
At Zhang Fan's current level, even if he didn't know the truth, he could still intuitively judge the truthfulness of the conversation when he heard it.
"Zhen Shiyin didn't lie."
"But that doesn't mean that what he said is the whole story."
Zhang Fan has his own judgment.
It's very simple. If everything is really as Zhen Shiyin said, then Chui Diao Weng, Xuanyuan Hong and others should definitely stand up and form a united front with Zhen Shiyin.
But they didn't. Instead, they simply created a sheltered world and hid quietly.
Zhang Fan's decision has never changed from beginning to end.
He wanted to stand in front of the person behind the scenes and get to the bottom of it!
However, in front of Zhen Shiyin, Zhang Fan did not reveal his true feelings.
Instead, he shook his head and said, "I'm just a mere clone, one of countless scattered chess pieces. The Lord of the True and False Avenues is as terrifying as you say. What use can I make?"
"Let's take a step back and say that even if we join forces and succeed in killing him, aren't you worried that I'll become the new master of truth and falsehood, causing all our efforts to go to waste?"
"What we have already achieved is already the limit of our current capabilities. How could we attempt to achieve something infinite and bring ourselves trouble? Besides... I don't think you would do that."
"Among all the Sons of Destiny, you are the only one who is willing to give up the Great Dao of Truth and Falsehood. If you hadn't seen this, there wouldn't be this conversation." Zhen Shiyin looked at Zhang Fan with a burning gaze.
Zhang Fan sneered: "Then I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, fellow Daoist. The reason I gave up was because I couldn't get what I wanted. Frankly speaking, if the true and false Dao really appeared before me, allowing me to take it, then I would definitely choose Him again without hesitation..."
Before Zhang Fan could finish his words, Zhen Shiyin interrupted him: "But you've already given up."
"Even a good horse doesn't turn back, let alone the Great Dao of True and Falsehood. Since you have given up the possibility of possessing the Great Dao of True and Falsehood, even if the Great Dao of True and Falsehood is left without a master one day, it will certainly not choose the person who voluntarily gave it up..."
"At least, this is the case in this life." Zhen Shiyin said with great confidence.
Zhang Fan opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment.
In the end, he only said: "I'm afraid this is just your guess, fellow Daoist?"
In fact, Zhang Fan already had an idea in his mind.
The reason why Zhen Shiyin chose to cooperate with him was entirely because he was attracted by the two points of his being the clone of the Lord of the True and False Avenue and the possibility that he had not inherited the [True].
As for what the chances of winning are?
They simply had no other choice.
Since that was the case, Zhang Fan stopped being polite: "Since you've already said that, if I continue to be humble, I'll be slapping you in the face."
"Give me this tree. From now on, we will form an alliance and work together to reclaim the Great Road of True and False."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the saints of the mountains and seas who were obsessed with enlightenment looked at Zhang Fan.
Beneath the calm gaze, there is a hint of malice.
Zhang Fan was calm and unafraid, waiting for Zhen Shiyin to make a decision.
There weren't many waves.
It was clear that Zhen Shiyin seemed extremely influential among the Saints. Even though they were extremely reluctant to leave, the Enlightened Saints still made way for Zhang Fan to finally reach the tree where countless Destiny Sons were hanging upside down.
"Aren't you afraid that I will go back on my word? You agreed so easily." To be honest, Zhang Fan was a little surprised by Zhen Shiyin's decisiveness.
"We have no choice, and neither do you." Zhen Shiyin said.
Zhang Fan immediately fell silent.
Speechless, he sighed softly and opened his mouth slowly.
Using the transformation of truth and falsehood, he gently strokes the fruits hanging on the big tree.
A light breeze seemed to be blowing among the remaining mountains and seas, and countless destiny children were swaying and rocking in the wind.
Then they fell one by one and disappeared.
At the same time, Zhang Fan's aura became increasingly ethereal.
Indeed, when Zhang Fan became a saint, he decided to give up the understanding of the truth and falsehood.
However, he did not give up the idea of using the true and false avenues as a handy tool.
Just like what Zhen Shiyin and the surviving saints of the mountains and seas did in this life, they were just the incarnations of the "Son of Heaven" and the Lord of the True and False Great Way.
Zhang Fan can personally use the power of the transformation between truth and falsehood.
The fruits fell one by one, and the whole tree withered.
The leaves turn yellow and fly away.
The branches broke, fell into the void, and turned into ashes.
Correspondingly...
The lives of the saints around us are like flowers, withering one by one.
Faced with death, the saints did not have much fear.
He just stared at the numbers of truth and falsehood in the void and calmly waited for his own fate.
"this……"
Zhang Fan had never imagined that this tree was actually sustained by the lives of the Saints. This ultimately explained why the Saints were able to remain as they were during the previous reset of the mountains and seas.
Although he did not kill the saints, they died because of his own thoughts.
After all, I have been in seclusion for most of my life, and the only time I spend with others is in an atmosphere of kindness.
Zhang Fan couldn't help but feel shocked at this moment.
"It doesn't matter. It's just another death."
"They have been favored by the True and False. Although they are not as capable as I am now, with a vision that can penetrate the cycle of reincarnation, they have also gained an understanding of their own fate, which is why they can face death so calmly."
"No matter whether what we plan succeeds or not, they will reappear with the restoration of mountains and seas." Zhen Shiyin stood beside Zhang Fan and said slowly.
In fact, no one needs comfort.
The shock in his heart only lasted for a few moments, and Zhang Fan's attention was focused on the road of truth and falsehood that was everywhere in the sky.
It is the destiny of billions of people.
But at this moment, it was like a trickle of water, all flowing into Zhang Fan's mouth.
The view gradually brightened.
The mountains and seas in the end times are no longer dark, and everything seems to have a traceable path.
A picture seemed to appear in front of Zhang Fan's eyes.
Everything that once existed in the mountains and seas is now included in this painting.
However, as the earth erodes, the mountains and seas in the painting gradually become transparent.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the mountains and seas have disappeared.
But in the eyes of the holders of the true and false avenues, as long as the power is reinjected, the mountains and seas will reappear!
"This is the [Outline of the Changes of Mountains and Seas]."
Deeply attracted by this mysterious scene, Zhang Fan muttered to himself as if he had realized something.
There’s more to it than that.
Outside the scroll of mountains and seas, there seems to be a person holding the scroll standing faintly.
All the changes in the scroll, and even the scroll itself, are under this person's control.
After memorizing every detail in the mountain and sea scroll, Zhang Fan tried his best to penetrate the blockade of the scroll and look at the person holding the scroll.
Because of this transgression, the mountain and sea painting suddenly became extremely trembling.
Everywhere he looked, the mountains and seas swarmed up, trying to block Zhang Fan's prying sight.
Zhang Fan used his ability to control the true and false avenues to suppress all disturbances. His goal remained unchanged: to see the person holding the scroll outside the painting.
The confrontation between the two forces caused this picture of mountains and seas to be torn apart and disintegrated piece by piece.
Correspondingly, Zhang Fan's soul seemed to have countless tiny cracks and was on the verge of collapse.
It's not just a simple injury, but a backlash from the change between truth and falsehood, and the foundation of its own existence is constantly disappearing.
Changsheng and Wangji, the two forces of the Great Dao of Mountains and Seas, are trying their best to repair the cracks in Zhang Fan's soul.
Although it was just a drop in the bucket, it gave Zhang Fan more time to observe.
Zhang Fan's sight finally broke through the obstruction of the mountain and sea scene and saw the person holding the scroll.
Boom boom boom!
It was as if the soul had suffered a violent collision, and all the mountains and seas, and even the surrounding virtual world, were hidden behind the scenes, becoming no longer important and fading from sight.
Even the countless paths, and even the true and false paths, are like floating clouds.
In Zhang Fan's eyes, there was only one person left.
At this moment, he saw himself.
as well as……
Floating on his body was another phantom.
Kill the gods and change the world.
When Zhang Fan broke through numerous obstacles and looked at Li Fan through the channel of truth and falsehood.
Li Fan also used the other person's gaze to examine himself from another person's perspective for the first time.
Therefore, he also discovered the numerous phantoms floating around him.
It is clear that all experiences and memories since reincarnation have been stripped away.
Only the purest state of traveling here remains.
But for some reason, there was another strange object above his head!
For some reason, Li Fan, who suddenly witnessed this scene, was not surprised at all.
Everything was expected.
In his opinion, it would be incredible if he didn't have a backup plan.
"I just don't know whether this phantom originated from my past self. Or..."
"That fallen true god."
The eye contact between Li Fan and Zhang Fan lasted only a brief moment.
When [Out-of-body Vision] disappeared, Li Fan could no longer observe the phantom that always existed above his head.
It was as if He did not exist at all. Even with the help of the transformation of truth and falsehood, He could not be reproduced in the mind at all.
Even the memory of the phantom's existence in my mind is slowly fading.
After trying and finding that he couldn't stop it, Li Fan decided to seize the last few moments and deduce the origin of this phantom as much as possible.
First, rule out the possibility that Li Fan was responsible.
"My current understanding of the great principles of truth and falsehood has almost reached the pinnacle of mountains and seas. Even compared to my former self, I am not much weaker now."
"I don't think he has the ability to do this."
"It dwells in the body without knowing or feeling, and cannot be seen, remembered, or recalled."
"Beyond the mountains and seas, beyond cognition."
"The Phantom of the True God..."
In just a moment, Li Fan made his judgment.
"It's still based on what we know previously."
"This world is in an endless cycle of reincarnation."
"Even true gods cannot survive forever. As time passes, new consciousness will emerge within their bodies. Whether this consciousness originates from a previously devoured divine spirit or is simply a new evolution."
"In short, the old gods fall and new gods appear. This is inevitable."
"It's called a fall, but it could actually be called a return. Because..."
"[God] seems to possess uniqueness. Once a god becomes a god, he is simply God."
"The cycle of reincarnation has come to a time when the spirits of the mountains and seas are divided."
"Things have changed."
"The mountains and the sea are merely two divergent thoughts before the new god evolved. The only meaning of their existence is to serve as a transition between the true god's fall and resurrection."
"But they foresee their own inevitable demise. Unwilling to accept this, they attempt to reverse their fate."
"They staged a grand show, concealing the truth from the world and transforming into stars. If the performance ends perfectly, they will replace the god who was supposed to appear and become the new god..."
After deducing this, Li Fan's thoughts paused slightly.
The speed at which the phantom of the true god disappeared was getting faster and faster, so he had to speed up.
"God is one. But who becomes God seems to be not unique."
"Shanhai's name wasn't on the original list of gods. But they forcibly changed it..."
"The true god has infinite power and can know the past, present and future. So, when he was about to fall, he foresaw the future changes."
"So I was snatched from the outside world out of thin air, to be the one who breaks the deadlock."
"but……"
"Is that all?"
A cold light flashed in Li Fan's eyes.
"With God's farsightedness, he should have seen everything that happened after I successfully tore apart the mountain and sea drama."
"Just as Zhen Shiyin and the others said."
"The mountains and seas are shattered, the cycle of reincarnation ends, and all belongs to me."
“…”
"This is not the result that the true God wants."
"Sacrificing yourself just to break the endless cycle of reincarnation in this world and make me an outsider?"
"God, are you so kind?"
Li Fan snorted coldly.
This possibility was directly rejected.
"But that true god still did it without hesitation."
"Just because..."
"He is absolutely certain that I can destroy the Great Drama of Mountains and Seas and destroy the Star of Birth. But in the end, I cannot slay God."
"God can see far into the future and foresee the entire future. He exhausted all possibilities, but he still couldn't foresee that I would successfully kill God. That's why He did this."
"You're asking me to do some work, and you want me to be your scapegoat..."
"That's really too much."
Li Fan's mood was no longer as angry as when he first discovered the truth.
I just laughed helplessly.
But behind the laughter, Li Fan's eyes were colder than ever before.
"Is the only reason for the end of this matter the phantom of the True God above my head?"
In the remaining time, Li Fan tried his best to deduce countermeasures.
The ink has faded and the phantom is gone.
Li Fan's expression showed a moment of confusion.
"seem……"
"I forgot something extremely important."
Feeling the inexplicable throbbing in his heart, Li Fan said thoughtfully.
"Do you have any idea?"
He looked at the shadow of Zhen Huan standing beside him.
It is really an illusion, without subjective consciousness, and only has mechanical reactions.
In order to answer Li Fan's answer, light and shadow are heavy, trying to trace back.
But in the end, nothing was gained.
Li Fan's expression did not change much.
“Sometimes, not having an answer is the answer itself.”
"I'm already at the top of this world, yet I can still undergo such strange changes..."
“Only God.”
"Whether you remember it or not, it makes no difference."
