Chapter 874 Obsession, Desire and Help

"I thought you would be more straightforward with your style."

With the closure of the sonic boom channel, Yang Yun returned from the other side of the Pacific Ocean again.

The captain of the Zhongzhou team crossed his arms and stood behind Chu Xuan, who was secretly monitoring the voting situation at the venue even after turning off the screen. His eyes behind the glasses seemed to be able to see into everyone's heart: "If it were you in the past, you might have taken more radical measures and would not have said those words to reduce our psychological burden."

Although he had accomplished a "miracle" that was unimaginable in the eyes of ordinary people and changed the fate of tens of thousands of people, Yang Yun did not seem to take it to heart at all. Instead, he was more interested in Chu Xuan's approach: "How should I put it... Chu Xuan, you seem to have become more gentle than before?"

"Do you think I used some rhetoric?" Chu Xuan glanced at Yang Yun indifferently.

"Isn't that the case?" Yang Yun asked doubtfully, "No matter what, there is obviously a direct cause and effect between those invaders from the outer plane and us."

"No, I'm telling the truth. Even if we hadn't chosen the Pacific Rim as the battlefield this time, this world would have certainly welcomed the next wave of invaders."

Chu Xuan immediately denied Yang Yun's speculation: "In fact, a long time ago, the civilization of this world was broken, which exposed the coordinates of the entire plane and the fragility of the world... If we use a metaphor from nature, the entire Pacific Rim plane is no different from a seriously injured fish that exudes a bloody smell in the eyes of the multiverse."

"In nature, injury is almost synonymous with death. Animals with a bloody smell on their bodies cannot survive for long. Although the Jianmu you planted can stop bleeding, the bloody smell will not dissipate easily. Sooner or later, predators in nature will be attracted by the smell."

"Predator...do you mean Honghuang Tianting?"

Listening to Chu Xuan's explanation, Yang Yun immediately thought of the situation in the Legend of Sword and Fairy dimension. There were also wounds on the crystal wall, and the invaders were attracted for the same reason.

However, compared to the Chinese Paladin plane, which has sufficient combat power, a long heritage, and even three junior saints, the Pacific Rim plane had almost been wiped out by the pioneers before the arrival of the Zhongzhou team... From this perspective, Chu Xuan's choice of this plane as the battlefield does have a deeper meaning.

"This plane is really full of disasters." Yang Yun exhaled and said with emotion: "Now that you put it that way, I even feel that it is surprising that the Pacific Rim world still exists."

"If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is a universal truth. If the coordinates of your plane are exposed, you need to be prepared to be invaded and wiped out by foreign enemies."

Chu Xuan responded calmly: "Whether it is the overlord of the prehistoric heaven, which is the winner now, or the prehistoric tribes, which are the losers and are always ready to make a comeback, or the fallen civilizations that escaped from the prehistoric world like the pioneer civilization... Even as wanderers who fled in desolation, they still have strength that cannot be underestimated."

"In this multiverse, there is indeed a cruel food chain, and the actual situation is far more dangerous than what we have seen."

"Ah, I understand. It's the Dark Forest Law." Yang Yun scratched his head. "Once a certain cosmic civilization is discovered, it will inevitably be spied on, targeted, or even attacked by other cosmic civilizations... It's easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark. I know this." "It's okay as long as you understand it."

Chu Xuan did not show much emotional reaction to the term "Dark Forest Theory". Since the second in-depth conversation some time ago, Chu Xuan and Yang Yun have reached a new and tacit understanding. Moreover, this theory is not difficult to understand: "Similar to the situation of the Zhongzhou team, the reason why we were tracked by the enemy is actually because we exposed our corresponding information at the level of causal line."

“Therefore, if we cannot end everything in the Pacific Rim world and completely sever the corresponding cause and effect, resulting in the coordinates of the main god space being exposed…”

"Okay, okay, you don't have to emphasize this to me. Don't I know clearly what the exposure of the coordinates of the main divine space will lead to?"

Yang Yun couldn't help but sigh, feeling somewhat helpless. Chu Xuan's humanity and emotions revealed by his inner demons were originally a good thing, but it was also because of the influence of his inner demons that this wise man who had always made decisions like thunder began to consider the consequences too much, and even spoke in a nagging manner: "Since we can't escape the disaster anyway, we can only face it calmly. We have already maximized the right time, right place, and right people. Now the only thing we can do is to wait quietly for the enemy to arrive."

"In fact, compared to the upcoming battle, I am more concerned about whether the attacking immortal will have a backup plan. After all, he is an immortal affiliated with the Honghuang Heavenly Court, right? And because you threw Reinhardt outside the Chinese Paladin dimension before, many people should know about this matter. What if the information about us is leaked and reaches the Honghuang Heavenly Court..."

"will not."

Chu Xuan's words were like calm winter water, interrupting Yang Yun's words, his voice full of calmness and confidence.

He did not leave Yang Yun any room for doubt and continued, "People act because they pursue something and have a need. Based on the behavior patterns of the Heavenly Court and the behavior of the immortal we encountered before, this is actually beneficial to us."

"...Benefits us? What do you mean?" Hearing this, Yang Yun was shocked. For some reason, he actually heard a different meaning in Chu Xuan's words.

Chu Xuan's expression remained calm, but his tone was full of deep meaning: "Behind all actions there are desires that drive them. Since the immortal is willing to cross planes to hunt us down, his obsession must be extremely deep... and a secret should always be known by as few people as possible."

Yang Yun frowned. Chu Xuan's speculation made him feel even more worried. "Could it be that he would do something because of his own selfish desires and his greed to monopolize the Lord God's secrets..."

"When individual desires conflict with the overall rules, this internal crack may become an opportunity for us to exploit. The interior of the Primordial Heaven is not a monolithic entity, and the cracks caused by selfish desires will be of corresponding help to a certain extent."

"The human heart cannot stand the test, and neither can human nature... As Adam said, 'On Jacob's ladder, there is room for only one man'."

As Chu Xuan said this, the Whip hanging on his waist and the List of Gods floating in front of him flashed with light. (End of this chapter)
