Chapter 1499: 157: Farewell
Chapter 1499: Chapter 157: FarewellJiang Wang had pondered similar questions before, and the answers were always there.
He once asked Ye Qingyu—
“Is it right to do the wrong thing for the right purpose?”
Ye Qingyu answered at that time—
“If you know it’s wrong, how can it be right?”
Wrong means cannot achieve right results.
This is what Jiang Wang has always believed.
So at least at this moment, between life prediction and blood divination, he stands on Yu Beidou’s side.
He sat upright, looking at Yu Beidou.
Yu Beidou’s expression was very complex at the moment.
Various emotions, mixed together.
There was pain, reminiscence, determination… but no regret.
As he told the diviner, even if he could do it again, he would still kill his senior brother.
Perhaps right and wrong never have a single standard.
Sometimes it’s just two roads converging and colliding.
And only one road can continue forward.
It is even unrelated to love or hate.
The road has reached this point and can only continue moving forward, even if it ultimately leads to life and death, even if one person has to fall.
Jiang Wang thought for a moment and then asked, “What about the Star Divination Technique? I’m not really familiar with it either. How is it different from the Life Prediction and Blood Divination techniques?”
Yu Beidou, with a tone of wanting to share his knowledge, casually explained, “Still treating fate as the Long River, with living beings as fish swimming in it. The biggest difference in the Star Divination Technique lies in—its pioneers marked the stars, divided the star domains, and further innovated the path of cultivation, allowing cultivators to reach the Outer Building before attaining divine skills.
Everything in the river of fate is reflected in the stars, with life paths and starlight shining together. The more cultivators who achieve the Outer Building, the deeper this connection grows. Conversely, the deeper the development of the Star Divination Technique, the better people understand the Star Vault, and the more stable and easier the path to the Outer Building becomes…
Therefore, the Star Divination Technique will develop alongside the cultivation world, with an endlessly broad future… hence it is recognized by all sides and becomes orthodox.
As long history has developed, stars have illuminated ages, shifting through time to the present. The accuracy of the Star Divination Technique has even surpassed that of the Life Prediction Technique. Yet, its difficulty in divination is far less than that of Life Prediction.
Even when comparing the cost of divination, the diviner practicing the Star Divination Technique only needs to gaze at the Star Vault in the river of fate, exploring and calculating the connections between stars and fate, without needing to risk jumping out of the river of fate or stirring waves by killing other fish.”
From Yu Beidou’s words, it’s not hard to feel that he has a very deep understanding of the Star Divination Technique, explaining it very clearly.
And for Jiang Wang, having understood the Star Divination Technique, he also comprehends why the ancient glory of the Life Prediction Technique would become history’s dust. Why even someone like Yu Beidou has no fighting spirit to reclaim it.
Because indeed, the Star Divination Technique has comprehensively surpassed the Life Prediction Technique. It is also connected with the human race’s cultivation path, complementing each other.
Even the Blood Divination Technique created by Yu Beidou’s senior brother can at most occupy a corner under the dominion of the Star Divination Technique, without any possibility of replacing it.
From Life Prediction to Blood Divination is a fork in the Tao.
But from Life Prediction to Star Divination… is an innovation of the “Tao”!
The torrent of the times rolls on, with no one able to stay outside it.
One can only join, not stop.
Any existence standing before this torrent will be crushed by the newborn power. Even Yu Beidou’s astonishing senior brother is no exception.
Just like embracing the Taixu Illusion Realm, Jiang Wang will undoubtedly also choose to embrace the Star Divination Technique.
Ancient glory is merely glory; everyone aspiring to the future must firmly move towards it.
“So that’s how it is!” Jiang Wang said sincerely, “No wonder even someone as powerful as you can only accept reality. The Star Divination Technique indeed replaces the old with the new and has such vast prospects.”
“Uh…” Yu Beidou joked, “Doesn’t the young man want to challenge it?”
Jiang Wang shook his head decisively, “No, I don’t.”
Yu Beidou looked at him with encouraging eyes, “You are the first Inner Mansion in history! Extraordinary people should do extraordinary things. How about evolving the Life Prediction, reversing the Star Divination, what do you think? Isn’t it a great undertaking?”
Previously agreed, dangerous things won’t be heard.
Jiang Wang decisively stood up, “The green mountains last, the green waters flow long, Yu True Man, until we meet again!”
“Hahahaha…” Yu Beidou inexplicably laughed but did not stop him, just flicked his finger, “Take this with you!”
A Qi Knife Coin flipped in the air, drawing a clear arc, landing in front of Jiang Wang, who caught it.
“What is this?”
“A gift.” Yu Beidou still sitting on the ground, waved with a smile, “Go on, go on!”
Jiang Wang held the knife coin and paused, thought about it, and still asked, “Actually, I have a question… Compared to Xiang Fengzhi, who is said to be unbeatable in the Insight of Truth, who is stronger?”
“It’s rare for someone to ask me such a boring question…”
Yu Beidou thought, a little seriously said, “In the Truth-Seeking Realm, Xiang Fengzhi’s killing power ranks first; until now, I haven’t seen anyone surpass him, maybe in another ten years… And in the realm of Dongzhen, I’ve always had the best calculating ability for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. If it comes to a duel at close quarters, I’m probably not as good as him. But if both set up strategies, life and death across the world, he’s definitely not as good as me.”
“The senior’s strength is indeed inspiring.”
Jiang Wang praised slightly, then said, “One more question…”
He shook the knife coin in his hand, “I wanted to ask, how was this knife coin able to find me?”
Asking this question aims to find ways to resolve it.
He doesn’t want to be found by anyone when he hides, regardless of whether Yu Beidou’s intentions are good or bad.
“Oh, it.” Yu Beidou casually said, “Through the line of affinity.”
“Huh?” Jiang Wang was shocked.
“Ah, no, finding you was through the line of cause and effect. We have the cause and effect of redeeming the amulet…” Yu Beidou looked at him playfully, “How come a slip of the tongue made you so nervous, got a sweetheart? Afraid I’ll pair the wrong couples? Um…”
He seemingly got interested, stretched out his five fingers, slightly apart: “Let me calculate who it is.”
“Goodbye!” Jiang Wang cupped his hands, the tip of his hair swished a straight line in the air as he turned and strode away.
Involving cause and effect is beyond what he can resolve, and can only be left for later.
Moreover, Yu Beidou hinted that their cause and effect are settled, roughly meaning he won’t find him again. Thus he’s reluctant to remain here for further teasing.
Yu Beidou, still sitting on the ground, looked at the young figure hurrying away and suddenly burst into laughter.
The laughter echoed for a long time.
