Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 563: A Discussion After Immortality

After Gu Yuena's matter was temporarily resolved, Bibi Dong learned of the situation and summoned Tang San, asking, "Gu Yuena has returned to the Star Dou Great Forest?"

After acquiring artificial spirit rings, Bibi Dong has completed the eighth and ninth spirit rings of her second spirit, and all her spirit rings have been upgraded to the level of 100,000 years within the Spirit Beast Illusion Space.

As for the skills of the Soul Rings, after perfecting the Soul Power Twin Meditation Method and condensing her primordial spirit, Bibi Dong didn't care much about them anymore. She focused more on comprehending the divine power of Rakshasa and death.

The power of her primordial spirit not only allows her to cover a wider and more refined range of mental energy, but also enables her to control any elemental power, making her almost omnipotent.

Theoretically speaking, as long as one understands the operating principles of all soul skills, one can imitate them through the power of the primordial spirit, thereby achieving the goal of mastering all skills.

The original Soul Ring skills have become something akin to instinct.

Therefore, after learning about Gu Yuena's true identity, Bibi Dong didn't care too much. After all, she no longer needed spirit rings, so there was no need to dwell on whether Gu Yuena was human or not.

"We went back. After all, she is the master of the Soul Beast race, although in a sense, it's only because she is the strongest and the hope for the Soul Beast race to become gods." Tang San nodded. "As for the relationship between humans and Soul Beasts, I think the Soul Beasts themselves need to change their mindset. Just like humans don't consider apes as their own kind, under normal circumstances, no one would actively seek out apes or other primates unless the primate looks too ferocious, like a baboon."

"Soul beasts with 100,000 years of cultivation are essentially no different from us humans. They do not regard those of their kind who are too weak and lack intelligence as their own kind. They only have compassion and sympathy in their hearts."

"The reason why the transformed 100,000-year-old soul beasts are stupid is simply because they have lived in those deep mountains and forests for a long time and have not experienced the trials of the complex human world. So they seem a bit simple. But in reality, the moment they choose to transform, whether they have reached maturity or not, they are already human."

"This has nothing to do with the soul. The body is exactly the same as that of a human, and the soul will naturally gradually transform into a human form, and the personality will become closer to that of a human, until it completely transforms into a human."

"Gu Yuena may be the key to guiding humans and soul beasts to live in harmony."

Bibi Dong remained silent for a long time before suddenly asking, "Can humans and spirit beasts really live in harmony? Although artificial spirit rings have appeared and may be mass-produced in the future, turning them into a business, the main conflict is the competition for living space between humans and spirit beasts."

"It's all man-made, and besides, aren't humans already killing each other?" Tang San smiled slightly. "If we venture into the stars in the future and encounter other races and civilizations, they will look completely different from us, have different beliefs, different ideologies, and even different ways of thinking. Are we supposed to wipe them all out, leaving only us, the Douluo humans?"

"Tian Dou and Xing Luo, especially Tian Dou, originally had many kingdoms and duchies within its territory, and the ethnic groups were diverse, but now they have been unified."

"The people inside the Spirit Hall also come from various regions and different ethnic groups."

"As times progress, the concept of 'human being' can actually be expanded. It is not limited to bloodline or race. Anyone who possesses intelligence and is capable of mutual understanding can be included in the concept of 'human being'."

Bibi Dong could understand this idea, but she also knew that, given the current situation, it was impossible to reach that level, since people couldn't even understand each other yet.

Moreover, this goal is far too ambitious.

"For a great pope like yourself, having a grand goal and achieving it brings a sense of accomplishment," Tang San complimented.

Bibi Dong: "...So you're just making empty promises to me."

"Drawing a cake can satisfy hunger, but for someone at your level, there's no need for excessive material pursuits. So naturally, you need to enrich your spirit." Tang San had his own reasoning. "Eternal life requires a goal. Simply indulging in pleasures will inevitably corrupt the soul. Otherwise, learning the habits of soul beasts and staying in the same secluded place for ten thousand years, making yourself simple, might allow your soul to be content with the status quo."

Bibi Dong was speechless, because what Tang San meant was that after achieving eternal life, there are three choices: either become a madman and play around in the world; or find solace for your soul and keep pursuing it; or stop thinking and be content with the status quo.

Considering the time difference between the God Realm and Douluo Star...

I'm afraid even the gods couldn't endure true eternity. The divine council, law enforcers, and administrators are probably just keeping themselves occupied, otherwise their long lives would be too boring.

"According to you, aren't all Soul Masters masochists?" Bibi Dong asked.

"That's right. Soul Masters, or rather, cultivators and seekers of truth, are all masochists. You and I were able to reach such a level not by luck. Along the way, you have emerged from the midst of battle and endured many hardships; as for me, I have spent most of my time every day in places like libraries and bookstores, conducting experiments to verify my findings. My path has not been smooth sailing either," Tang San sighed.

Bibi Dong's mouth twitched.

Although Tang San's words make a lot of sense, why does it always seem like Tang San reached his current level very easily?

Relaxed?

Tang San only wants to say:

Organize, categorize, summarize...

Discovery, experimentation, summarization...

These things sound simple, but if you try to experiment with them yourself, you'll find that they are incredibly difficult. If it weren't for his scientific knowledge from his previous life, and the fact that there are already many predecessors in this world who have made extensive summaries and generalizations of existing phenomena, he wouldn't know where to begin if he wanted to create something from scratch.

But Tang San doesn't deny his good fortune.

"Alright, let's leave that topic aside for now. Although we've reached a high enough level, the world's perceptions haven't reached our level yet. We still need to start from the bottom." Bibi Dong prepared to talk about something practical. "In the past eight years, the Sun Moon Continent has sent troops three more times, but they were all defeated by the Heaven Dou Empire and our Spirit Hall. However, a small number escaped back. I guess they know that their emperor is in trouble. Now they've sent another fleet, not to mention rescuing the princess or the captured general, but to strengthen exchanges between the two continents and try to exchange resources."

What's your opinion on this?

Tang San: "..."
