Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 5370 (five thousand three hundred and seventy)
"You said before that you believe you have always been in the real world, but your spiritual part has gone to other worlds. You also said that since everything is considered the real world, there is no distinction between the real world. In short, that is what you really experienced. Am I right?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"That's right," the man replied.

"Although you said that there is no distinction between the real world, in fact, when you answer my questions, you still assume that some things happen in the real world and some things do not, right?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

The man thought for a moment and said, "Yes. But... this doesn't seem to contradict what I just said. I have always been in front of you, but... my spiritual part has gone to another world."

The Gray Hand Man asked: "After the three sacs exploded and you 'scattered' into so many 'you', do you think that each 'you' at that time was just the spiritual part of you that went to other worlds?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." said the man.

The Gray Hand Man felt that there were some things that the man could not explain clearly, so he asked, "Do you think your spiritual part has gone to another world?"

"Yes." said the man.

"Your spiritual part has 'scattered' into so many 'you', but each 'you' belongs to a different world?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

The man thought for a moment and said, "I... can't really explain it clearly. The 'me' before 'dispersing' should be my spiritual part... um... my spiritual part went to another world. But... after the spiritual part of me that was already in another world 'dispersed', is each 'me' still in the original world? Maybe... maybe it's not in the original world anymore."

The Gray Hand said, "Can we say that at that time your spiritual part 'dispersed' and went to different worlds?"

The man said, "It seems... it seems that this is the only explanation. In fact, I really can't explain it clearly. According to what you said, I have always been in front of you, right?" "Yes." The gray-handed man said, "This is the fact, you have always been in front of me."

"Then... it seems like this explanation is appropriate?" the man said, "But when I think about this, I feel very confused."

The Gray Hand Man asked, "Why do you feel confused?"

"Maybe... it's because the experiences of my spiritual part in other worlds seemed too real." The man said, "So real that I thought I had really been to other worlds."

The Gray Hand Man asked, "You are now firmly convinced that just because your spirit has gone to another world, it doesn't mean that you as a person have gone to another world?"

The man said, "It seems... yes. Well, no matter what I thought before, this is what I think now."

The Gray Hand asked again, "You just answered my question. Do you think that the reason why the 'you' heard that person who claimed to be your father say that is related to things in reality? Does it mean that even if your spirit is 'split' into many parts in another world, what each part hears and what happens to it is actually related to the real experiences you have had in the real world?"

The man thought about it again and replied, "Yes, I think so now."
