Shared talent: traveling through the heavens and worlds at the same time

Chapter 199 Wang Ye Persuades People
"Hey, two benefactors, you really gave me a hard time looking for you."

Lin Bei, who was fighting with Zhang Chulan and imparting his combat experience to him, suddenly heard a voice with a transcendent temperament coming from behind him.

Lin Bei and Zhang Chulan turned their heads at the same time and found that the person coming was Wang Ye, Taoist Wang, who had just been eliminated today.

Zhang Chulan was quite surprised to see Wang Ye appear here. He looked at Wang Ye in surprise and said:
"Master Wang? Are you looking for us? How did you know we were here?"

Wang Ye was wearing a loose Taoist robe and looked relaxed and indifferent. After hearing Zhang Chulan's words, he touched the back of his head and replied with a smile:

"Yes, I am indeed looking for you. As for how to find you, I have some tricks of my own, hehe."

Lin Bei was somewhat curious about why Wang Ye suddenly came over. He looked at Wang Ye and asked:

"Master Wang, are you here to see me or Chu Lan?"

Wang Ye restrained his smile upon hearing this and said calmly:

"I'm not looking for one of you, I'm looking for both of you."

Zhang Chulan asked in confusion:

"Looking for us? What do you want from us?"

Wang Ye nodded, but did not answer Zhang Chulan. Instead, he asked:
"Zhang Chulan, do you know why I came to participate in this Luotian Grand Ceremony?"

Zhang Chulan turned around and looked at Lin Bei with some confusion, then looked at Wang Ye strangely and said:
"Master Wang, you shouldn't ask me this question. How would I know why you came?
I just know that you didn't come here for the prize of the winner of this Luotian Grand Ceremony, otherwise you wouldn't have been so secretive and not used your full strength during the competition today."

Hearing Zhang Chulan's words, Wang Ye also turned to look at Lin Bei and said in a relaxed tone:

"Oh? I'm not surprised that the old Taoist priest could tell that I didn't use my full strength, but I didn't expect that Donor Lin Bei could also see it?

As expected, Master Lin Bei, you are such an interesting person. I made the right decision to come to the Luotian Grand Ceremony this time."

Zhang Chulan was even more confused at this time. Even Lin Bei was confused by Wang Ye at this time. Why did it feel like Wang Ye's participation in the Luotian Dajiao this time had his own factors involved?
Not wanting to see Wang Ye keeping him in suspense, Lin Bei asked directly:
"Master Wang, please just say whatever you want to say. Don't keep us in suspense. Riddlers are easy to get beaten!"

Wang Ye looked a little embarrassed when he heard this.
"Tsk, I really don't mean to whet your appetite. It's mainly because this matter is a little troublesome to explain. It really can't be explained in just a few words.

Do you know what divination is?"

Hearing Wang Ye's sudden question, Lin Bei nodded slightly and said:
"Know a little bit."

Zhang Chulan shook his head and said:

"Not sure at all."

After hearing the two people's completely different answers, Wang Ye thought about it and explained in order to make his words more understandable:

“Speaking of divination, I need to first popularize a basic concept to you: the past cannot be reversed, but the future can be changed.

No matter how powerful a sorcerer is, he cannot predict the past, but can only calculate several possibilities for the future.

But even so, it is still against the will of heaven, so divination is of no benefit to the sorcerer himself, and may even cause harm.

As for how much damage this will cause, it depends on how much impact the calculated information has on the world."

Zhang Chulan had naturally never heard of what Wang Ye said, so he listened very carefully.

Although Lin Bei already knew all this, he did not interrupt. He wanted to see what Wang Ye came to him for today.

Will it be the same as the original plot, and will he come specifically to persuade Zhang Chulan to give up on investigating the truth of that year?

“For example, if I figure out the winning numbers for the next lottery, the damage to me will be minimal.

Because that only changed the candidate of a certain upstart, and had little impact on the world.

But before that, I did some divination in Wudang regarding this Luotian Grand Ceremony and the two of you, and the result surprised me."

Having said this, Wang Ye paused for a moment before continuing:

"I only had a vague idea about Zhang Chulan's situation, and I almost died because of it.

As for you, Donor Lin Bei, you are even more interesting. I cannot divine any information about you at all, and even all the information related to you will be distorted because of this."

As he said this, Wang Ye's eyes, which had thick dark circles under them, shone brightly as he stared at Lin Bei and Zhang Chulan, as if he was looking at something rare and extraordinary.

After hearing what Wang Ye said, Lin Bei and Zhang Chulan looked at each other with complicated expressions on their faces.

Zhang Chulan was shocked by what Wang Ye said, his eyes widened, and Lin Bei was also surprised by what Wang Ye said.

Lin Bei was not surprised by Zhang Chulan's situation. After all, he and Feng Baobao were related to the ultimate secret of the world, and in the original plot, no one could predict it.

What really interested Lin Bei was what Wang Ye said about his situation, which was completely beyond divination.

According to Lin Bei's understanding, the so-called divination by the sorcerers in this world, to put it simply, is to directly ask questions to the so-called "Heavenly Way" in the sorcerer's inner vision. The Heavenly Way gives answers based on the questions, and the sorcerer pays a certain price to obtain the answer based on the importance of the answer.

As for whether the answer was given by the Way of Heaven, to be honest, Lin Bei didn't know.

But according to the comics in my previous life, this thing that gives answers can basically be considered omniscient in this one person's world, so there is nothing wrong with calling him the Way of Heaven.

And now, Wang Ye actually said that he could not divine any information about Lin Bei at all, which was a bit unbelievable.

At this time, Wang Ye seemed to be worried that Lin Bei and Zhang Chulan, as non-warlocks, could not understand how special the situation he was talking about was, so he continued to explain considerately:
“You may not understand what I just said, so let me explain it briefly.

Simply put, there is never a moment when the world is still; the entire world is changing every moment.

The sum of individual changes is the change of the entire world. Just like now, I reach out and pick this leaf, which is also part of the change of this world.

However, the degree to which individuals influence changes in the world is actually different. Some people work hard but cannot create any waves, while others can turn the world upside down with just a single thought.

I call this the weight of fate."

Wang Ye was holding a leaf he had just picked from the tree, speaking slowly, then he looked up at Zhang Chulan and said:
“The higher the proportion of destiny’s weight, the greater the impact on the world, but as long as you live in this world, it will exist.

For example, you, Zhang Chulan, have a very high destiny weight ratio, and every choice you make will have a huge impact on the world."

Then, Wang Ye turned to look at Lin Bei and said seriously:

“And you, Lin Bei, in the divination, your destiny has no weight at all, as if everything you do has nothing to do with this world.

But this is obviously impossible. Apart from anything else, just based on your strength, Lin Bei, any decision you make will have an impact far beyond that of ordinary people.

So, I am really curious about you. You seem to be two completely opposite extremes in divination.

One, to put it in a metaphysical way, is that the cause and effect are too great, and no one can predict the result, while the other is a Daluo Jinxian who has jumped out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements, and the cause and effect are not involved. "

After hearing what Wang Ye said, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but sweat dripping down his forehead. He didn't expect that there was such a mysterious method as divination in this world.

Although he had often heard of fortune-telling and divination before, Zhang Chulan had always thought that they were just made up in myths and legends. Having received new-age education, he never thought that they were true.

Even after coming into contact with the world of aliens, Zhang Chulan had never thought that this kind of method really existed in the world of aliens.

I didn't expect to see one today.

However, Zhang Chulan did not believe all of Wang Ye's words. He swallowed his saliva and asked the biggest question in his mind:

"Master Wang Ye, let's not talk about whether what you just said is true or not. Even if you really calculated something, what does it have to do with you?

Why did you come to Luotian Dajiao to wade into this muddy water? "

Hearing Zhang Chulan's question, Wang Ye withdrew his gaze from Lin Bei, looked up at the sky, and sighed:

"Hey, you're right, what does what you guys look like have to do with me?

No matter how many secrets you have, it won't affect me. No matter how bad the world is, I can protect myself and my family, so I shouldn't have come.

But I still came, firstly because I know that what you, Zhang Chulan, have done and the truth you are pursuing may eventually bring some not-so-good effects to the world.

So, I want to try to persuade you to give up. This is for the good of the world as well as for your own good.

Secondly, I am really curious about the two of you, especially Lin Bei. As a sorcerer, I think my methods are pretty good among my peers, but I can't understand his situation at all, so I want to come and take a look."

After hearing what Wang Ye said, Zhang Chulan fell silent this time. For a moment, he couldn't think of how to respond.

However, Lin Bei suddenly smiled and said:

"Master Wang Ye, has anyone ever told you that you are not good at persuading others? Believe me, in the future, try not to force others if you can, otherwise you will probably fail every time you persuade others.

You don't need to bother trying to persuade Chu Lan to give up on finding out the truth. That's impossible.

Perhaps in your divination, it would be good for Chu Lan and the world if he gave up the so-called truth, but it does not mean that we should choose this path just because it is good.

Just like one of the predecessors of your sorcerers, Mr. Zhuge Kongming, with his level of cultivation, didn’t he know that his best choice was to stay in Wolonggang and keep himself safe?

He knew it, but he still chose to follow Liu Bei out of the mountains, just to try to save the world which was already beyond salvation at that time.

The same goes for you. You knew that the Luotian Grand Ceremony was a mess, but you still came, didn’t you?
Therefore, it is impossible to change other people's ideas just by talking. If you really want to stop it, then take action and speak with your actions and strength. Whether it will work or not is another matter."

After Lin Bei finished speaking, it was Wang Ye's turn to be silent. He was completely unable to refute what Lin Bei said.

But Lin Bei changed the subject at this time. He did not dwell too much on Zhang Chulan's matter, but instead asked about what he was curious about:
"Let's talk about the other reason why you came to Luotian Dajiao. You just said that you were very curious about my situation, so you came to see me?
How is it? It has been five days since the Luotian Grand Ceremony. We met when you first came to Longhu Mountain. What do you see from me?"

This time the king did not remain silent. He nodded and replied:
"I did see some things, but my curiosity was not only not resolved, but it increased."

Lin Bei said with interest:
"Oh? What happened? Would you mind telling me in detail?"

Wang Ye said:
"Of course I don't mind."

Afterwards, Wang Ye paused, sorted out his words, and then said:
"In short, after my observations over this period of time, I have found that your situation is very special. To sum it up, you are, in a sense, an 'invisible person' to this world."

"how do I say this?"

“I said before that I had divined the situation of this conference on Mount Wudang. According to the results of my divination, I got several possible futures.

First, if I didn't come, the old Taoist priest would have done something to Zhuge Qing in order to help Zhang Chulan win the Luotian Dajiao, and he would have ended up in disgrace.

Second, if I were to come, I would meet Zhuge Qing in the round of 16. After defeating him, I would meet Zhang Chulan in the quarterfinals. Zhang Chulan listened to my advice, gave up pursuing the truth, and admitted defeat.

Third, if Zhang Chulan doesn’t give up, I will admit defeat and let him continue to pursue the truth.

As for the second or third option, I will be in trouble because I will expose my own methods after defeating Zhuge Qing."

After hearing what Wang Ye said, Lin Bei suddenly realized. Wasn't what Wang Ye was talking about the original plot of Under One Person?
So, what Wang Ye saw from the divination was actually the original plot without Lin Bei's interference?
But this is not right. Ever since he traveled to this world and became Zhang Huaiyi's apprentice, the future of this world has already changed. No matter what, the Luotian Dajiao could not develop according to the original plot.

Wang Ye naturally didn't know what Lin Bei was thinking, so he continued:

"I felt something was wrong at the time. As another descendant of the legendary Qi body source, there was no information about you in the divination results. This is totally against common sense.

Afterwards, I tried to divine your information from various angles, but I found that no matter how I divined, the inner scene always gave me the same response, which was "empty", as if you didn't exist in this world!"
