Chapter 114
Even if the Aeon who governed it falls, the Path remains open.
Only the first person to become that Path has the qualification to master the power within that Path and mobilize it at will.
And those who come later can only drink the dregs.
Anyone who opens a Path, to some extent, is the first person to eat a crab.
To be precise, it shouldn't be described as opening, but as discovering.
The first person to eat a crab always gets the greatest benefits.
And this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
It is like the various Paths that exist in the universe; you need to open them.
The first person to open one can leap to become at least a supreme existence.
Once opened, the power of this Path will dissipate, which should attract some people, making it easier for some to step onto this Path and obtain the power of this road.
As one goes further and further on the Path, the power one can master naturally becomes stronger.
And the second creature to walk on the Path, including those who come later, have no use.
It's not that they have no use, but they are forever behind the first creature to open the Path.
The first creature to open a Path is equivalent to possessing brief absolute control over this Path.
The reason it is called brief is that once they die, they cannot close this Path.
When a creature's will overlaps with a Path, it can be considered as walking on the Path.
If the creature's intent is strong enough, they can draw a little power from the Path; such people are called 'Pathstriders'.
In this universe, there are always mortals who intentionally or unintentionally step into the Path governed by an 'Aeon', henceforth becoming 'Pathstriders' who practice their philosophy.
However, it cannot be said that they are forever behind; there are other opportunities to surpass.
That is, the first Aeon to open the Path dies. After death, the second person to walk on that Path has a great chance to seize brief control of this Path.
But it is only seizing; others also have this opportunity.
They will not instantly and briefly master this Path.
Only the first opener has this right, having brief absolute control over the Path.
As for the manifestation of control, it is naturally mobilizing the power on the Path at will, creating existences at the level of Emanators.
Lin Mo tapped his fingers lightly on the table, thoughts surfacing in his mind one after another.
While Lin Mo was thinking this.
The Alchemy Commission.
Three stewards from the Seat of Divine Foresight walked over, heading straight for Bai Lu's clinic.
"Master Bai Lu."
When they saw Bai Lu, they greeted her respectfully first, then understood the process of capturing this fellow from the Cloud Knight beside her.
After understanding, they looked at Bai Lu and said in a respectful tone: "I wonder how the treatment of this person is going? This person is suspected of contract fraud and needs to be taken to the Seat of Divine Foresight."
As he spoke, the steward of the Seat of Divine Foresight turned his head to look at Xie Jun, whose throat was writhing on the ground with a pained expression.
"It cannot be treated in a short time; you have to wait."
Bai Lu pinched her jade-white chin, looking thoughtful: "This young lady still needs to observe."
She really didn't know how to treat this thing; she could only observe the situation first.
She couldn't diagnose it even after checking.
So annoying.
For a moment, Bai Lu had a headache; it made no sense.
It was truly seeing a ghost.
Mobilizing the power of the Abundance, she still couldn't find any problems.
Although she didn't think her medical skills were the best in the world, this outrageous situation where she couldn't even find the symptoms made Bai Lu somewhat unwilling; it shouldn't be like this.
"Even Master Bai Lu can't treat it?"
Hearing Bai Lu's words, the three stewards of the Seat of Divine Foresight gasped.
No way, Master Bai Lu's medical skills were the best on the Luo Fu; she could even treat the General.
"Is it strange that I can't treat it?"
Seeing the shock of the three, Bai Lu curled her lips: "The universe is vast; there are plenty of difficult and miscellaneous illnesses."
"But this young lady doesn't believe that such things happen for no reason; there must be traces to follow."
As she spoke, Bai Lu pinched her jade-white chin, her dragon tail swaying behind her, and she narrowed her eyes: "You can investigate this fellow and look for clues."
Hearing Bai Lu's words, the three stewards of the Seat of Divine Foresight looked at each other.
This fellow couldn't even be treated by Master Bai Lu now; how could they take him back for questioning?
"No, there is another fellow."
The next second, the three stewards of the Seat of Divine Foresight suddenly turned their heads to look at the fellow beside them who didn't even dare to breathe, the one Xie Jun called Brother Long.
This fellow should be the one who briefly understood Xie Jun.
Even if he really didn't know him, they would check this fellow first.
Thinking of this, a steward of the Seat of Divine Foresight stepped forward and said calmly: "Please come with us and cooperate with the work of our Seat of Divine Foresight."
"I didn't do this to him; why should I cooperate with your Seat of Divine Foresight?!"
Hearing the steward's words, the man Xie Jun called Brother Long turned green.
He didn't want to go to a place like the Seat of Divine Foresight.
Even if there were no big problems, he would lose a layer of skin; this wouldn't do.
"Sorry, this is a notification, not a negotiation."
The steward of the Seat of Divine Foresight was expressionless: "If you don't cooperate, we will take mandatory measures. If it has nothing to do with you, our Seat of Divine Foresight won't do anything to you. Now that it involves a human life, and according to the surveillance, your relationship with this person is quite good, come back to the Seat of Divine Foresight with us first."
Hearing the steward's words, the man Xie Jun called Brother Long had a face as black as ink, but there was nothing he could do.
Glancing at the Cloud Knight beside him who had already put his hand on the weapon at his waist, he only felt a toothache.
What the hell is this; he was truly an innocent victim.
How did Xie Jun suddenly become like this? It was truly seeing a ghost.
He knew he could only cooperate now. If he didn't, he would probably be pressed to the ground by these Cloud Knights in the next second.
Immediately, he sighed: "Alright, I'll go with you; I will definitely cooperate."
All in all, he hadn't done anything.
The things he had done recently, besides some immoral things, there was nothing else, so he wasn't afraid of the Seat of Divine Foresight investigating.
Only the matter of defrauding the Minghuoshang Society, but defrauding the Minghuoshang Society was clearly led by Xie Jun. He would just push it all onto this fellow; anyway, it was this fellow who signed the contract, and it had nothing to do with him.
Thinking of this, he felt much more comfortable in his heart.
Isn't it just cooperating? No problem!
He had just heard that the three stewards of the Seat of Divine Foresight said that Xie Jun was suspected of contract fraud, not him.
For a moment, he felt much more fortunate; fortunately, he didn't listen to Xie Jun and sign this contract.
Even if the Seat of Divine Foresight investigated everything clearly, the Minghuoshang Society wouldn't do anything to him.
Watching this fellow look grave one moment and relieved the next, with a comfortable expression, the three people from the Seat of Divine Foresight frowned.
What was this fellow thinking?
"Then Master Bai Lu, will this fellow die?"
The next second, the steward of the Seat of Divine Foresight looked at Xie Jun, who was in pain on the ground, and asked hesitantly: "Is there any hope?"
"Hmm, this young lady..." ===== CHAPTER 115 =====
