Chapter 1739 Working Together to Solve Doubts
No matter how powerful the person he was in the past was, the day he decided to make a "change," he disappeared from the concept of existence.
What is truly sealed within us now is not real consciousness.
Instead, it is "experience" built on an incredibly vast amount of memory data.
These memories originally belonged to Li Fan.
Therefore, once they made contact, they irresistibly converged into Li Fan's mind.
But precisely because Li Fan in the past had become incredibly powerful, even with the existence of the long memories of death and the endless cycle of reincarnation, he could react to various external situations as if they were real thoughts.
When they encounter a suitable and important path, they will be hungry and devoured.
It will issue a warning if a deadly crisis occurs.
Even if they run into old friends who once fought alongside them, they will come out and say hello.
But he is no longer here.
All that's left is the instinctive reaction based on one's own vast memory.
Therefore, when he realized that Li Fan's current strength was not enough to fully accept his past experiences, he decisively broke off the contact.
Li Fan then returned to reality.
"Fellow Daoist Fan, is there anything unusual? Why do I sense that you are somewhat uneasy?"
"What happened?"
Almost instantly, Li Fan felt the warm greetings of Shouqiu Gong and Daode in his heart.
It was only then that Li Fan was surprised to discover that even under the influence of the Xuanji Ring's "unity of mind and purpose," his encounter with his past memories had not been noticed by others.
"It has already been shown that Li Fan's strength was far superior to that of the Three Saints. Even if only a simple accumulation of memories remains, he can still ignore the rules of the Xuanji Ring."
Li Fan wasn't particularly surprised by this.
After all, no matter how strong the Three Saints were, even at their peak before the separation of the Mountain and Sea, they were only cultivating within the Mountain and Sea. Li Fan, on the other hand, had accumulated experience through countless cycles of the Mountain and Sea.
"We say we're of one mind and one heart, but now I can unilaterally block out certain memories."
"I can deceive others, but others cannot deceive me. Doesn't that give me a natural advantage?"
In an instant, Li Fan narrowed his eyes, realizing this.
"However, in the current situation, there is no need to hide anything from Shouqiu and Daode."
After thinking for a moment, Li Fan decided to share his experience with them.
After a while...
Shouqiu exclaimed in amazement, "I originally thought that Fellow Daoist Fan's possession of the True Essence and his repeated visits were already strange enough. But I never imagined that there was an even more complicated past."
"It turns out that the mountains and seas have been destroyed countless times already."
"With Fellow Daoist You Fan here, the mountains and seas are truly blessed!"
Morality was also deeply moved and speechless: "If we can be of one mind and one heart with fellow Daoists, we will have no regrets even if we die."
Li Fan snorted: "I don't think it's anything special. If he really succeeded in saving the mountains and seas, then of course there would be no exaggeration in praising him. But since he always ends in failure, what's the difference between repeating it countless times and repeating it once?"
Shouqiu and Daode smiled wryly upon hearing this, momentarily at a loss for words.
"Alright, let's put the past aside for now. Right now, I really need your help in making a judgment."
"I still have a few questions in my mind."
"First, even though I'm absolutely certain, I still have some doubts. Has the person I was in the past truly passed away? Or is it just some kind of belief he imposed on me? Could it be that he still has some tricks up his sleeve, waiting for me to successfully save the world before striking back?"
"Secondly, I have finally found the answer to the question of where my keen intuition comes from. But the origin of infinite spirituality remains unknown. I only vaguely sense that my past self did not question this matter. Therefore, it did not answer my question. Is infinite spirituality truly infinite, or is it the accumulation of countless reincarnations of my past self?"
"As for the third point? 'To save the world, first save yourself.' What exactly does this mean?"
Li Fan spoke eloquently, expressing all the doubts in his mind in one breath.
Upright and honest, without any ulterior motives.
That's just who he is. Even if he himself was once someone else, and even if the other person appears to be great, noble, or sacred on the surface, he will ultimately not easily trust anyone. He will always remain skeptical of what needs to be doubted.
Under the rule of unity and shared values, Shouqiu Gong and Daode had long known Li Fan's character.
Instead of being surprised, he began to think about it seriously.
After a long while, Shouqiu Gong slowly spoke: "Regarding the first point, my judgment is consistent with morality. The Fellow Daoist of the past should indeed no longer exist."
"Having exhausted all options, I find no way out. Only a desperate gamble—a complete overhaul, a rebirth from the ashes, a creation anew—offers even the faintest glimmer of hope. This is seeking possibility within impossibility. If, however, some hidden hand remains…"
"This could lead to failure at the crucial moment, rendering all past efforts futile. Wouldn't that be a complete waste of time? With your past understanding and character, you would never have made such a meaningless move."
Li Fan nodded slightly.
Of course, I didn't completely believe Shouqiu's words. Even I had my doubts, so how could I let Shouqiu have them? He could be influenced by my past self, so why couldn't the like-minded Shouqiu?
It's just a temporary consolation.
Shouqiu naturally understood this principle and quickly skipped over it, focusing on Li Fan's second question: "Regarding the source of infinite spirituality, I now have two guesses."
"First, it is a unique quality that accompanied you through your journey. It is because of this characteristic that you, my mortal friend, were able to have such a respectable experience. Otherwise, if you were simply born into a being within the mountains and seas, and wanted to escape the cycle of reincarnation within the mountains and seas... even the Three Sages probably couldn't do it."
"As for the second guess... based on what you said, the deceased you had no doubts about the origin of infinite spirituality. If it was due to time travel, you would certainly not understand the reason. Unless, he knew some memories that you are unaware of. It stems from witnessing the origin of infinite spirituality when he time-traveled. Given his character, he would certainly not hide such an important matter from you. Since he didn't say it, let's assume he didn't. Therefore, we can only deduce that the infinite spirituality may have come from his accumulation of countless reincarnations."
Shouqiu seemed to see Li Fan countless times trying to turn the tide and save the mountains and seas. However, after all his failures, he would regroup and try again.
I couldn't help but look on with admiration, and at the same time, I felt a sense of longing.
"It's not just his own accumulation. Or perhaps, it also includes the entire Shan Hai." Morality added.
"Oh? What do you mean by that?" Li Fan asked.
"When the mountains and seas vanished, true spirits accumulated. The mountains and seas were resurrected from nothingness by the true and false Great Daos. The nature of those accumulated true spirits remains unknown. If they return to a new mountain and sea, then this conjecture is naturally invalid. If the mountains and seas reappear, it will not rely on the true spirits of the past..."
"Then this might explain where the infinite true spirit within you comes from."
"Those are remnants of mountains and seas from countless cycles of reincarnation," Morality said, emphasizing each word.
