Chapter 595: Severing the Great Void

After finishing these words, the Third Elder paused slightly.

However, seeing from the corner of his eye that Li Heng remained expressionless, calm as still water, a trace of disappointment could not help but rise in his heart, and he could only continue to speak. "The Calamity is invincible, the matter is undoable, and everything in the Great Void depends on the distribution of monsters, so the current Alliance Leader proposes moving the Multiverse Alliance out of the Great Void."

Li Heng raised his eyebrows slightly after hearing this.

"Is this what you call a grand strategy? One can already enter and exit the Wuqiong Weizhi at the Sacred Realm, right? But you all should understand the environment of the Wuqiong Weizhi, shouldn't you? That is far more terrifying than the Calamity monsters."

The Third Elder sighed upon hearing this, "That is precisely the key."

"The Wuqiong Weizhi is chaotic and terrifying; everything is immeasurable. Once beings like us, who are known, find ourselves in the Wuqiong Weizhi, we will inevitably suffer from the erosion of the Wuqiong Weizhi and eventually be assimilated by it. No matter how high one's cultivation is, it can only delay the time a little."

"What, has your Alliance Leader found a way to avoid being eroded?" Li Heng said with a half-smile.

"There is a rough outline of a method."

The Third Elder did not deny it and nodded.

"The Number Five Strange Object currently in the hands of the Great Elder, the thing you call the Strange Fire Pile, can release firelight by burning known things, illuminating the surrounding Wuqiong Weizhi. As long as the firelight does not extinguish, then the known things covered by the firelight can remain safe and sound. I presume the Great Venerable has already realized the key to the problem?"

"You want to use the Strange Fire Pile as a guide?"

Li Heng said calmly.

"That is exactly it." The Third Elder nodded.

"Just like that?" Li Heng said concisely.

"I cannot hide it from the Great Venerable; there are indeed subsequent steps. To survive for a long time in the Wuqiong Weizhi, other things must intervene, such as intercepting a fragment of the Great Void to serve as a container to protect us from being eroded by the Unknown. The light of the Strange Fire Pile can serve as the power source," the Third Elder said frankly.

"That is an interesting statement, but are you willing to part with it?"

"Although fleeing to the Wuqiong Weizhi is highly likely to avoid the Calamity and monsters, you and I both know that once one enters the Wuqiong Weizhi, it is equivalent to leaving all existence, and in the end, one will be completely disconnected from the Great Void. That is like being an Outsider; to those in the Great Void, it is no different from death."

Li Heng laughed.

Putting aside for the moment whether what the Third Elder said was true or false, this plan itself was indeed interesting, having the same effect as the Great Venerable's realm being expelled by the Great Void into the Wuqiong Weizhi. Although the difference lay in one being active and the other passive, not everyone is a Great Venerable, and not everyone is qualified to be expelled by the Void.

"Does the Great Venerable not see it? Our fleeing the Great Void is not to live a lingering existence, but to live normally as before; otherwise, why would we need to intercept a fragment of the Great Void?"

The Third Elder asked in return.

Li Heng's expression suddenly became strange.

Although he had guessed this point just now, this Third Elder was truly daring. "Your Multiverse Alliance even wants to start a new stove and create your own Great Void? You are really daring, aren't you?"

Now he completely understood what the Third Elder meant.

If the Wuqiong Weizhi were compared to the ocean, then the Great Void would be the islands in the sea, or a continent capable of resisting the ocean. But regardless of which one it is, it reveals that only living on an island or a continent counts as living normally.

And the Multiverse Alliance wants to steal a portion of the mass of the islands or the continent, run into the Unknown ocean to start a new stove, and create their own island. In this way, it is highly possible to get rid of the Calamity and monsters, and also exist normally on "ground land" and live normally.

This is indeed theoretically feasible.

But don't forget, even a Great Venerable like Li Heng, who is still in the Great Void, is being urgently asked by the Great Void to repay his debts, for fear of suffering any loss, even though that bit of Causal Debt is not worth mentioning to the Great Void, and might even be just one-infinite-th...

That is enough to show the stinginess of the Great Void.

If even a little bit of Causal Debt is fatal, then not to mention the behavior of the Multiverse Alliance, which dares to sever the Great Void and steal its mass—are they really not afraid of being slapped to death by the Great Void?

Especially now, after Li Heng's Source Power communication, the Great Void has faintly shown signs of activation and personification. Once targeted by the Great Void, it would not just be faint exclusion and suppression; it is not impossible for it to descend with Heavenly Punishment like the Heavenly Dao of a world.

"As the saying goes, if you are not crazy, you cannot live."

The Third Elder said calmly.

"Great Venerable, the weight of Causal Debt is unimaginable. You should also be able to sense that if you honestly repay the debt, I am afraid it will take Eternal time, and no accidents can occur during the period. In this way, there is only one choice: flee the Great Void and enter the Wuqiong Weizhi."

"And although the Great Venerable is strong, it is impossible to open up a place of the known in the Wuqiong Weizhi. Even if you open it, it is impossible to let this place of the known exist Eternally; it will only be slowly eroded by the Wuqiong Weizhi and eventually reach a dead end."

"But intercepting a fragment of the Great Void is different. The Great Void is Eternally existent and indestructible through ten thousand calamities, and even a fragment is the same. If you use this fragment as a foundation to open up a place of the known, then this place of the known will also exist forever and will not be assimilated by the Wuqiong Weizhi. Moreover, one-infinite-th of the Great Void is also infinite, so even if it is just a fragment, there is no need to worry about the size; it is enough to accommodate us living normally."

"Finally, it may even grow into another Great Void!"

Li Heng was thoughtful.

It must be said that these words of the Third Elder were indeed stirring. Setting up one's own sect, opening up a place of the known, growing into another Great Void, and being able to avoid the Calamity and monsters...

What a wonderful method this is.

He was almost tempted.

As for why he was not tempted? The reason is very simple. The Great Void does not exclude him now, and in the future, he may even turn the tables. Coupled with the fact that the Calamity and monsters are his greatest source of Source Power, he has no need to abandon his cheat, set up his own sect, and go to that small plot of land to play house.

No matter how you put it, the Great Void is still the biggest stage at present.

It can only be said that this Third Elder met a freak like Li Heng, who is not afraid of the Calamity and monsters, but can instead use them in reverse, and can even ignore the suppression and exclusion of the Great Void.

However, although what the Third Elder said did not align with his, Li's, interests, he was not in such a hurry to refuse; he still wanted to see what exactly this Multiverse Alliance wanted to play at.

"Why should I believe that you can cut off a part of the Great Void?" Li Heng said with a smile. The Great Void is not space-time or a world, but the embodiment of existence, all-being, the known, and objective reality.

This is like a knife, no matter how sharp it is, being able to cut through diamond, but it cannot cut through conceptual things; it is simply not a domain or a dimension that can be touched.

"No matter, the Alliance Leader has grand strategies and already has a method."

The Third Elder said confidently.
