Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

He Li's thinking gradually became clear.

In his view, it was not important what the mysterious void consciousness that conveyed the message actually called, and besides, the memories of that consciousness did not seem clear.

This may not be a result of chance, but rather a deliberate act by the void consciousness itself.

After all, the other party's true form is all-powerful.

The other party has the ability to send that consciousness across an infinite distance to this world...

It can also accurately predict when he will return to the past.

They could even predict what they were going to do.

Then, it arranged for that consciousness to communicate and relay messages to Mu Lan, who was bound to come into contact with the mysterious wind, and successfully delivered the message to itself...

With the other party's abilities, it would be absolutely not difficult for them to keep that void consciousness memory clear.

But the other party did not do that.

Therefore, He Li is certain that this was done intentionally by the other party, but he is unaware of their purpose in doing so.

Secondly, there's the transmission of messages from the void consciousness...

He said that his name was indeed unimportant.

The meaning that the void consciousness wanted to convey...

Is the most important.

He said he could be called "Reason," and considering his true nature's reluctance to grant him clear memories, could we then speculate on the meaning of this void consciousness entity...?

They wanted to use the hazy and vague nature of the void consciousness to arouse their suspicions.

Let them think of more?

If He Li's guess was correct.

Based on this assumption, if we can call the concept of void consciousness "reason," does that mean that its essence is some kind of truth or something related to it?

While thinking about these things, He Li also spoke up to explain his guess to Mu Lan.

He then began to discuss his own analysis...

"Reason...explanation is limited."

"This word itself represents the established laws or principles of the development of things."

"The other party has traveled a great distance to come here, so they definitely won't say anything useless. Therefore, even if I'm wrong, I'm probably not far off from the truth."

"Besides, I wasn't wrong..."

"Therefore, in my opinion, there is a high possibility that the other party wants to claim that they are the embodiment of the ultimate truth."

"Of course, there are many great truths and principles."

"That void consciousness might be a result of certain individuals cultivating to a very high level before ascending and transforming into some kind of truth within the Great Dao."

He paused here.

Because he saw that Mu Lan across from him pondered for a moment, then looked up as if she wanted to say something.

He gestured for Mu Lan to speak directly.

The latter nodded and said, "As a being who embodies the Great Dao Truth, the other party is already at the pinnacle of void power. Such an existence would specifically send his consciousness to deliver a message..."

"I can not understand."

"After all, once you reach that level, even the Heavenly Dao is nothing more than an ant in your eyes."

"And we are still far from the Heavenly Way."

"They revealed the coordinates and asked what they wanted us to do there. Given our strength, they probably wouldn't even consider us worth their time."

"Hmm!" He Li nodded.

He agreed with Mu Lan's words and was certain that no living being would come into contact with another being without a reason.

The other party, being a supreme truth, actively sought out beings weaker than the Heavenly Dao...

There must be some purpose behind it.

The problem is that He Li is even more aware that even if they figure out this purpose, they have no ability to interfere, after all, their strength is far inferior to that of the other party.

Moreover, given their current situation, it's more likely that they have no idea what the other party's purpose is.

"Let's put this matter on hold for now."

"After all, the relevant level is just too high."

"Whether we choose to go to the coordinate point or not, it's pointless to consider that now."

"Perhaps... once we finish what we've done here and return to the future to finish what happened in the last century, we'll have enough time and means to begin solving this problem."

He Li spoke after a moment's thought.

Mu Lan agreed upon hearing this.

But then she pressed on, saying, "We can ponder the matter of the void consciousness in the future."

"Now... this era is becoming increasingly chaotic due to the war caused by the Eighty-One Generals of War, and the power of the collective evil thoughts is also growing during this period."

"What do we do next?"

"Wait!" He Li replied, "The wars of this era are also a set of history that cannot be changed."

Even without the Eighty-One Generals of War...

Even without interference from later generations...

"Even the most malevolent thoughts will think of using such things to increase their evil and enhance the power of their collective evil, so such things are beyond our control."

"However, those evil entities are prepared, and so are we."

"Now we just have to wait..."

"When the evil thoughts become so extreme that they feel they can wage war against us, we will use the strongest and most ruthless methods to completely annihilate the entire aggregate of evil thoughts."

"Therefore, our mission is complete."

"And if I'm not mistaken..."

"I'm afraid that evil thought is about to surface and fight us to the death."

At this point, He Li sneered.

Mu Lan frowned slightly: "Now? Since the extremely evil intentions want to use war to incite panic among all living beings and create chaos to rapidly increase their evil intentions..."

"Shouldn't it have stabilized first, then plunged the world into complete panic before erupting?"

He Li shook his head upon hearing this.

"It won't do that, because not only do we understand the rules of balance, but it understands them too."

"Now, because of the war, evil has grown so rapidly that it is enough to confront the gods of the world head-on. But if this continues, evil will completely crush all living beings and the forces of good..."

That will inevitably trigger the balance rules.

"At that time, the power of the rules will be activated to forcibly weaken evil thoughts and the power of related creatures."

"Only in this way can we continue to maintain the balance."

Yes, the principle of balance.

Even the most wicked thoughts must be obeyed.

The very existence of evil beings stems from the principle of balancing all living beings; conversely, if an evil being becomes too powerful, it too will be "balanced."

Even the will of Heaven might intervene.

"The most evil thoughts will not take risks. It will only launch an attack to eliminate us when its evil thoughts reach a point close to the limit of equilibrium."

"As long as we are eliminated, we can ensure that the fate of this collective evil is broken..."

"Its purpose has been achieved."

As He Li spoke, Mu Lan understood.

To put it bluntly, it's because she, or many others, have a misunderstanding of the purpose of extreme evil.

Many people believe that the purpose of extreme evil is to destroy the world or to make evil beings the masters of heaven and earth, but in fact, extreme evil is very clear about "balance".

It simply won't do that.

Its purpose, from beginning to end, was simply to break the fate of evil creatures from their eternal annihilation.

Therefore, regarding extremely evil thoughts...

It also doesn't need to risk continuing to accumulate evil thoughts.

It only needs to accumulate evil thoughts to a point where it can almost break free from fate.

Mu Lan had already realized what was happening.

Therefore, she accepted He Li's guess.

And the truth... is exactly as He Li guessed: after months of increasingly chaotic warfare, those previously relatively quiet aggregates of evil...

Suddenly, a full-scale riot broke out.

He Lineng was able to clearly perceive this because of his perception of the concept of the Heart Fire Authority...

When the evil collectives rioted, the beings in various places who were attacked by the evil collectives began to intensify their sacrifices and worship to him, in order to stimulate the power of their inner fire.

As for He Li, as someone who possessed the concept of Heartfire, he could guess the reason for the sudden surge in faith power and the power of Heartfire without even thinking.

However, unlike before...

The collective of evil thoughts of the past dared not confront the Fire Ancestor or He Li's inner fire head-on.

At the same time, the most evil thoughts will not allow too many evil aggregates to commit pointless deaths, so all beings can easily fight against them by relying on the two flames.

However, the situation is different now.

The most wicked thoughts are about to take hold and fight desperately.

At this critical juncture, it certainly doesn't care how many evil entities will die or how much evil will be lost; as long as it can achieve its goal, that's all that matters.

Consequently, other aggregates of evil thoughts, driven by extreme evil, become even more fearless and daring.

Even though they are two different flames...

They also dare to attack recklessly.

This not only rapidly increases the casualties among living beings, but also causes a surge in negative emotions among all living beings.

In an instant, the collective evil thoughts grew increasingly ferocious, seemingly invincible, while the most malevolent thoughts seized the opportunity to launch a lightning attack on He Li's side...
