Chapter 795: What is this.jpg
"The two of you are already extremely powerful, transcending strength, weakness, and realms; you could even be called Omniscient and Omnipotent. If one were to simply compare strength and realms, you could deny anything with ease."
"But the strength of power, the height of realms?"
Li Heng spoke to himself, then shook his head.
"Such words still float upon the surface."
"The only thing that can truly measure the strength of power and the height of realms is a person's degree of exploration into the Unknown; the larger this person's circle of the known, the stronger their own power and realm."
"Perhaps within your realms, within your known, you can measure strength at will, invert high and low, deny everything, and be Omniscient and Omnipotent. But for me, who stands outside your known and symbolizes the Wuqiong Weizhi, it is meaningless. Only those trapped within their own realms develop the illusion of being Omniscient and Omnipotent."
"And now..."
"My known, your unknown, has unfolded."
His Heaven and Earth Dharma Form expanded in an instant, yet the surrounding Void showed no changes. However, the old man and the sturdy man's expressions changed drastically; they felt the surrounding environment suddenly become unfamiliar, no longer in harmony with them, and even their connection to Order became extremely weak, as if it would snap at any moment!
What is going on? How is this possible!
They exerted their full strength, causing the Void to surge, wanting to continue communicating with Order. Yet no matter how they tried to connect, that link remained increasingly weak.
Not long after, the connection was completely severed.
They also lost the blessing of Order upon themselves.
What made them feel even more incredible was that they slowly sensed an aura of Order on Li Heng; this aura of Order grew from small to large, from faint to deep, from outside to inside, slowly evolving.
In the end, it actually re-evolved into Order Authority and Order Artifacts. These things lingered around Li Heng, circling his body, constantly blessing him, looking incredibly obedient.
The two were completely dumbfounded.
What happened?
They lost Order, and someone else obtained Order?
"Since you intended to explain and contain others, you must risk being contained and explained by others in return. You consider Order supreme, capable of defining and explaining everything, including me."
"But in reality, this idea is too ethereal, even erroneous. Order wanted to explain me, but I, in turn, explained Order; so-called Order has become a plaything in my palm."
"What do you think of this answer?"
Li Heng smiled slightly, and the Order Power on his body changed with his thoughts, forming an Order's Bell. Within it, Order Runes circled, looking extremely strict and Sacred, far more imposing and profound than the Order's Bell the two had produced earlier.
"Order, this is power left behind by the Dao Lord!"
The two expressed disbelief.
They had always felt that even if they were completely defeated, Order would remain eternal; only they would fail, not Order itself. Just as countless living beings die at the hands of Calamity monsters and worlds sink, Order can always turn the tide and start over.
But now, Order is acting like someone else's plaything?
They felt like sycophants, having painstakingly groveled and offered infinite energy, time, and all their wealth, only to earn a glance from a goddess. Yet in an instant, the goddess they could not obtain by groveling was now throwing herself at someone else with such initiative, fawning and flattering to the extreme, as if she were a pug.
They felt extremely bitter inside.
They had spent countless Reincarnations constantly trying to align with Order, even going so far as to let themselves become a gear in the operation of Order, only then being able to use a sliver of Order's power.
But now, Order obeys another's commands completely.
Without the slightest resistance.
"There is always someone better, there is always a mountain higher; that is all."
Li Heng said calmly.
Naturally, with his current strength and realm, he could not explain the power left behind by the Dao Lord, let alone control it as easily as a plaything as he was doing now.
So he was still cheating, with Source Power mixed in.
It was just that the power left behind by the Dao Lord, without the Dao Lord presiding over it, was like a trembling, obedient little lamb in the face of Source Power; it dared not resist him at all.
"Who exactly are you? Another Dao Lord?"
The sturdy man stared fixedly at Li Heng and spoke.
"Do you think I am?"
Li Heng smiled slightly.
The two fell into silence; they wanted to say it didn't seem so. Because Li Heng lacked any of the supreme aura a Dao Lord should have; although he looked strong, they felt his strength was limited and certainly not as invincible as a Dao Lord, who could shape multiple limitations with a single thought, reorganize the Great Void, and be absolutely Omniscient and Omnipotent.
But they dared not assert this.
Just as the words had said earlier, Li Heng stood outside their known, not within the explanatory scope of their realm; he was a profound Unknown they could not perceive.
Therefore, unless their arrogance had gone to their heads, they knew very well that they lacked the qualifications to judge this existence.
"Very good, it seems my education was quite successful."
Li Heng nodded with satisfaction, wearing the expression of one who sees a student teachable.
"Speak, what exactly happened to this Reality."
Hearing this, the two looked at each other.
They wanted to say, you have already mastered Order and are so powerful, do you still need to ask us? Isn't this just making fun of them?
But they suppressed the impulse to say such things.
After all, they still wanted to live.
If he wanted to make fun of them, so be it. After all, this person's strength gave him the qualification to make fun of them; one must be open-minded, the two tried to hypnotize themselves, wanting to make their state of mind calm.
In the face of such a gap in strength, they were no longer obsessed.
The two took a short time to organize their wording, and finally, the "better-tempered" sturdy man spoke, recounting some secrets of this Reality...
After finishing all this, the man added.
"We only know these things; as for what truth is hidden behind this, we are also completely ignorant. Otherwise, we would have long since ended this endless Reincarnation and won the war."
The two revealed bitter expressions.
Perhaps in this endless Reincarnation overwriting, they had already become numb. But they still remembered the feeling of the first time they performed an overwrite, ending the lives of their own friends and family with their own hands; that was pure powerlessness, a maddening powerlessness.
Li Heng did not answer, falling into thought.
According to the sturdy man, the Calamity and monsters appeared suddenly, and at the same time, the power of Order also appeared suddenly.
And what is interesting is that before these things happened, this Reality was quite normal; there was no situation where Order dominated alone, or where everything was a Transformation Body of Order, or where Order was the First Cause.
At first, this also made the two of them feel puzzled.
But over endless years, they also came to terms with it. After all, how could the power of the Dao Lord be something they could easily fathom? Just because Order did not appear before does not mean Order did not exist before.
"So that's how it is..."
Li Heng muttered to himself.
