There's something wrong with me

Chapter 292 None of them seem like good people

The fluctuations of the rules, accompanied by the spread of primordial energy, permeated the Three Realms within the vast universe.

Gods, demons, and all living beings in the world heard Zhang Feng's voice and looked up at the sky.

Especially amidst the interference of rules, and through spatial warping within the ascension channel.

Even the thousands of smaller planes seemed to hear Zhang Feng's echoing voice and turned their gazes to the sky above.

this moment.

After Zhang Feng entered the Heavenly Dao realm and was freed from his constraints, his energy was increased without limit.

Furthermore, it operates under rules that are superior to those of the Heavenly Dao of this realm.

The celestial phenomena spread imperceptibly.

All living beings in the world seemed to see a Taoist priest in coarse cloth sitting upright in the starry sky.

He had an unremarkable appearance and a build no different from that of an average person.

But everyone can see him at first glance in the universe.

Even in many parts of the world today, it is still daytime.

Yet, during the daytime, countless stars appeared, shifting and revolving around Zhang Feng.

It was as if Zhang Feng was the center of the universe.

Zhang Feng also guided the trajectory of some small galaxies.

The universe as seen by the naked eye is shrouded in Zhang Feng's celestial phenomena.

When the beings of the lower realms witnessed this scene, their astonishment, disorientation, and even kneeling in worship were insufficient to describe the awe-inspiring descent of the Heavenly Dao.

However, within the master's world, many people were also shocked by this celestial phenomenon and discovered that the person who could make the universe revolve around him seemed to be 'Zhang Feng, the Ascended One'.

"If I heard correctly... he... called himself Zhang Feng?"

The world of Master was in an uproar.

And within this vast world.

Although the gods and demons were somewhat surprised and frightened, they focused more on the top of the sky.

The top that they knew.

Especially the top, which is 'above the Heavenly Court'.

There, a sea of ​​clouds stretches out, a realm beyond the vast universe.

About five light-years away from the universe, there is a 'cloud-shaped star cluster'.

This is where the Heavenly Way resides.

Zhang Feng was also looking in this direction.

Furthermore, regarding the two individuals, 'Heavenly Emperor, Yangshan Zhenren' and 'King Yama, Great Yama'.

Zhang Feng has now chosen to ignore it.

Because their levels of understanding and knowledge are too different.

Perhaps we should wait until we've dealt with the most pressing Heavenly Dao before repaying the kindness of those who taught us in the lower realms.

at the same time.

Amidst the waiting of all the gods and demons in this vast world.

Snore—

The star cluster that stretched for three light-years moved.

In an instant, it was like a silent explosion in the universe, or like the gathering of silt in water.

In just nine seconds.

It formed the shape of a robust old man.

There is neither the benevolent nor the heartless way of Heaven as people imagine.

Instead, he was similar to an old martial arts master who practiced martial arts regularly.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang."

Tiandao looked at Zhang Feng with a mixture of caution and curiosity in his eyes.

But what he found more perplexing was how Zhang Feng managed to conceal this from him and then step into the Heavenly Dao.
At the same time, the moment Zhang Feng saw his face, he recognized him as the great thief, who was also the Heavenly Dao of this world.

"Fellow Daoist Sun."

Zhang Feng returned the greeting and revealed his surname.

The thief wasn't curious about Zhang Feng knowing his surname.

Because his surname is not something he hides from the world.

But in the next second.

This was something Zhang Feng had never imagined, nor had he suddenly decided to do so.

Wow—

Suddenly, the thief made his move. In an instant, an invisible force of rules materialized into a white cloth, piercing through the entire universe and tearing towards Zhang Feng.

Rumble—

At this moment, the world did not collapse, but rather dissipated like bubbles, yet it emitted a tremendous roar like an earthquake.

The countless gods and demons within did not even have time to react before all their karma and fortune began to vanish, and their life force slowly disappeared.

In the aftermath of the thief's attack, all planets and celestial bodies within a radius of three hundred light-years, including the sun, were shattered and compressed in the silent vacuum.

It's as if all celestial bodies were forcibly pushed from three dimensions into a two-dimensional plane, and then compressed again into a one-dimensional 'point'.

And among the white fabrics, they were the first to be affected.

And then, amidst the terror of the impending apocalypse and the astonishment of the clash between the two celestial realms.

With a thought, Zhang Feng's linen cloth split into a black strip, which not only resisted the impact of the white cloth but also restored the original state of the world's living beings and fortunes, and restored the mountains, seas, churning and collapsing, restoring the original scenery once again.

In just a moment, everything returned to normal.

It was as if the previous catastrophe had not happened, and the two Heavenly Daos had not clashed.

However, the two black and white ribbons in the universe are still intertwined, and the nearby celestial bodies are gradually becoming one-dimensional.

Although Zhang Feng is superior to the great thief in terms of rules and can reverse his rule-based magic, he is far inferior to him in terms of energy.

Therefore, it can only protect the vast universe, and only protect its own area within nine light-years.

However, beyond nine light-years away...

Zhang Feng was powerless to help.

After realizing he couldn't effectively kill Zhang Feng, the thief voluntarily removed the white cloth strip and smiled, saying:
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, what brings you here?"

'This man's temperament is just like a master thief; he tests you first before speaking.'

When Zhang Feng saw that he was powerless to control himself, he said some polite words, which showed that God was actually no different from humans.

Ultimately, it was all built by people.

Like myself, I am also a human being.

But the way the thief disregarded the world and all living beings when he made his move was truly inhumane.

However, when you think about how their world was created by thieves, it's clear that it was actually fabricated and built by them.

So breaking it down and then rebuilding it doesn't mean it's inhumane.

This is just like playing with building blocks when we were kids.

I felt like a little insect that suddenly jumped onto the building blocks.

That child would definitely ignore the building blocks and slap them to death first.

The building blocks are broken, but we can just buy more.

Zhang Feng understood and felt that this was the best way to handle the situation.

The thief on the other side didn't care either, since he was the embodiment of the world anyway.

However, at this moment, all living beings in the world, upon seeing the immense power of the two Heavenly Daos, felt that their own Heavenly Dao was 'ruthless' while the outside Heavenly Dao was 'compassionate'.

However, no one said these things, and no one dared to say them.

And beyond the heavens, in the universe.

Zhang Feng gestured for them to enter, and he and the great thief jumped into the crevice of the sixth-dimensional world to talk, without bothering to explain anything.

I have no intention of saying that the way of Heaven is actually the same as that of normal people, without any sense of emotion or indifference.

Even if it is explained clearly, people will not understand.

……

The sixth dimension is actually another aspect of the universe.

If the world can be divided into positive and negative, then this place is actually more like an 'infinite anti-world'.

Its space is infinite.

There was nothing inside, no light, nothing at all, just 'nothingness in the darkness'.

"Fellow Daoist, what is chaos? Have you ever seen the 'nothingness' within chaos?"

We've finally arrived here.

The thief immediately asked this strange question.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Feng realized it was indeed a good question.

Because he couldn't answer it. Even though this world, devoid of anything, resembled chaos, it was only like that.

After all, chaos is 'nothingness'.

"Nothing" means that one cannot even perceive "nothing".

If I had to describe it specifically, it would be the feeling of 'after death' versus 'before life'.

That is nothingness, but since it is nothingness, it is definitely not perceptible.

Zhang Feng was stumped by the master thief.

The thief didn't press further. Instead, he sat cross-legged in the reverse world and began to speak to himself:
"I have been in seclusion for three eras, yet I still cannot comprehend it."

The words of the great thief possess a unique Taoist charm.

Zhang Feng heard this and knew that the era he was referring to was 'twelve trillion years'.

That takes quite a long time.

And after such a long time, it still hasn't been calculated.

He's really stupid.

But considering that he has already reached the second stage of enlightenment, it seems that this is also the end, and he is bound by the world.

Think of this.

Zhang Feng looked intently at the bandit and noticed a hint of melancholy in his expression.

It seems he is aware of his own problems.

Can one escape the 'Tao'?

Curious, and with no one else around, Zhang Feng asked in plain language:
"The question of 'nothingness' is something neither of us can calculate. Let's talk about the Tao you have now transformed into."

"The Dao?" The great thief was silent for a moment, then said, "It is the cycle of one era after another."

As he spoke, he gazed out at some unseen time and space.
"If I am not mistaken, there are also my 'causal bodies' in other great worlds."

These are like 'dust corpses'; if I cannot retrieve them, I will certainly be unable to explore higher realms.

"But I am now bound by this Dao and can no longer retrieve my dust corpse."

The thief spoke, then looked intently at Zhang Feng.
"If I am not mistaken, fellow Daoist has already retrieved all the dust corpses, or perhaps through some kind of technique, descended upon those dust corpses to fulfill their wishes."

Only then were they able to break free from the shackles of cause and effect.

Based on the previous brief encounter.

The thief already knew that Zhang Feng's understanding of the Dao far surpassed his own.

Then, since this fellow Daoist has entered the Dao but has not yet attained it, he is instead a 'free person'.

That must mean the dust corpse has been severed.

However, Zhang Feng paused for a moment upon hearing this statement.

It seems that he has come to realize that all the characters in his previous adventures were actually his own 'causal bodies'.

I also realized that the previous mental focus was a disguised way of cutting off the 'mental corpse'.

In the earliest Ling Shan Great Immortal world, I helped him sever the spiritual dust corpse and cut off the karmic ties with the rat.

In fact, the earliest texts hinted at 'slaying the dust'.

But now, through some of the words of the great thief, I suddenly understand.

It was this self-awareness—the understanding that he had severed all ties with the world—that made Zhang Feng suddenly realize at this moment that he had truly achieved the unity of all things.

This kind of enlightenment did not improve any computing power or spiritual level.

But it brought true fulfillment to Zhang Feng's heart and soul.

They can even see through the fortune and karma of a great thief.

But before this, Zhang Feng couldn't see through it.

Because when the master thief made his move, he didn't have any sudden impulse or feeling whatsoever.

The thief's fortune is represented by a single golden '8', and his future destiny is an endless cycle of cosmic destruction and rebirth.

Zhang Feng found the golden 8 quite strange.

But in the next moment, his luck, which was infinitely close to 900 million, turned into a golden '8.3'.

"What did you realize?"

At the same time, the thief, realizing that he seemed to have been seen through, looked at Zhang Feng in surprise.

Similarly, the thief couldn't see through Zhang Feng either, so he thought they were on the same level and could fight and chat.

Perhaps in the endless cycle of repetition, you can find a close friend.

But now, he felt a terrifying sense of being analyzed.

This was no longer a sudden personal crisis, but a warning from the rules of the entire universe and thousands of smaller worlds, urging him to get away from Zhang Feng as soon as possible!
Zhang Feng is now almost at the level of one.

Everything was perfect except for the old rules.

"I have grasped the meaning of severing worldly ties."

Zhang Feng remained unmoved by the thief's surprise and his attempt to flee, and stated without reservation:

"By sheer coincidence, I did indeed slay the dust corpse."

I've also seen your causal entity.

"How is he?" Upon hearing this, the thief stopped his escape attempt.

Honestly, the way he ran away so easily was exactly like the personality of a master thief.

Seeing him and his inquisitive expression, Zhang Feng understood the true meaning of the thief's box.

It's about someone wanting to jump out of the box and also wanting the box to open so they can escape this space.

The box has six sides, which also means 'six dimensions'.

Seven-dimensional beings are observers like Zhang Feng, who are not confined to the box, that is, not confined to the box world of the universe's birth, death, and reincarnation.

Zhang Feng now fully understands.

He realized that the great thief was a seeker of truth just like himself.

Furthermore, his causal entities, influenced by him, also became 'seekers of the Way'.

“I’ve met one of your causal entities.” Zhang Feng recalled the past and, based on the stone carving, truthfully stated, “They all wanted to jump out of the box.”

"A box?" The master thief frowned, then suddenly understood something, and everything became clear.
"I am not alone on my path."

……

Three months later.

Zhang Feng has left this vast world.

This discussion can also be considered a discussion of the Dao.

There were many questions, but some answers were also found.

Those were the honored guests, Chen Tiancai, and the great thief, who seemed to be trapped in an infernal hell.

In reality, their causal bodies were all affected by the original body, and then they wanted to escape reincarnation, that is, escape time.

The only way to escape time is to go back.

The plane in which their causal entities reside is also the past.

They were all actually searching for the final answer, the final formula, only their methods differed.

The thief is right.

'My path is indeed not lonely.'

However, he only realized now that they all possessed the same 'Great Dao Body' as the Great Thief.

Or perhaps, he was the first exceptional genius I ever met, a distinguished guest.

The first thing he said to himself, that letter, had already given him the answer.

'Cultivating the Tao is difficult, but there are those of us who are wholeheartedly devoted to it, and we journey together on this path.'

……

Going back to reality.

The remaining years passed quickly.

It's time for a new adventure.

At this moment, even the words seemed to change.

Because when the countdown ends.

Zhang Feng discovered that he had not gone to the adventure world, but was still in the base in reality.

But here, it's already an adventure world, and the text provides hints about the world.
