Chapter 83: Madness (1)
Shi Tu looked at his miserable self, his skin is completely dry and look like an ancient corpse that had passed thousands of years ago, even his black hair turned gray but not yet fallen off, every trace of life disappeared from Shi Tu and seemed hopeless and he had already died While his soul was captured.
"It can't be helped, looks like the Blades of Chaos didn't recognize me as master"
If Shi Tu wasn't tied, he would shrug his shoulders carelessly, and he didn't seem to care much about what happening to him.
"You are wrong. It is not that Blades of Chaos did not recognize you. On the contrary, you have fulfilled all conditions unlike the previous person who carried it. That person is obsessed with revenge and murder, so he allowed him to use him since he loves destruction, but he did not recognize him and did not give him all his power. "
The ancient voice spoke as if he remembering some amusing thing.
"What are the conditions? I don't think there is much difference in strength between us when I was at my peak. If there is a difference, my soul will be a little stronger than him."
In terms of pure strength, Shi Tu and Zhan Xieshen are on the same level in cultivation, the only difference between them is Shi Tu's superiority in soul power and martial arts.
That is if he think superficial, but the answer is clear for Shi Tu but he wanted to know if there was another condition that he did not know.
"Neither this nor the other, power has nothing to do with this, it is the will, you did not scream, right? Despite your exhaustion, you did not scream and did not try to escape and persevered until the end, this is the condition for success, the previous person could not still and continued to scream, he even let Blades of Chaos To rest before continuing, so it was simply a whim. "
So in the end is the will? Huh. As Shi Tu expected, but he mocked in his heart, although he did not think to retreat, but he could not even if he wanted to, and even after the end of soul absorption, he could not let them, and this contradicted what the voice said, but he obtained some information from his words.
First, it seems that the Blades of Chaos spirit has great independence and a strange personality, also it does not seem that the owner of the mysterious voice is the Blades of Chaos spirit, just as Shi Tu's inability to break the chaos blades does not seem related to him or to the Blades of Chaos.
The strange sound silenced a little to allow Shi Tu to sort his thoughts before continuing without trying to guess because he went through this situation many times and everyone had the same thoughts.
"Unfortunately, I have to leave soon, but I wanted to ask you about a few things, Of course you have the right to refuse to answer, what do you think?"
"No problem, you can ask whatever you want."
Shi Tu did not mind answering the questions and was actually excited about this even though it was most likely for nothing.
It seems that the owner of the voice has a lot of experience and for Shi Tu, talking with such a person and clashing of thoughts is fun, who knows? Perhaps this person's opinion might change Shi Tu's worldview.
"What do you think about peace? Is there a difference between real and fake peace? Or is there real and fake peace?"
The voice this time sounded deep and contained an indomitable will that had endured for countless years while at the same time hinting at great depression and extreme fatigue.
Shi Tu didn't take time to think because he already had the answer in his heart as he had spent his life pursuing that word.
"There is no real or fake peace. Peace is merely an elaborate illusion to justify imposing a thinking style on others."
The owner of the voice fell silent a little to understand what Shi Tu said and even though he had heard that opinion before, no one was able to persuade him.
"It seems that you also once chased peace. What kind of peace were you trying to impose on the world?"
Because Shi Tu did not hesitate to answer, the voice realized that he is sure of his answer, which means that he had put a great effort into seeking this answer.
Shi Tu answered without hesitation
"A world without conflicts."
Although Shi Tu did not hesitate to answer, he seem to be whispering and wishing that the other party would not hear his answer as if he is ashamed of it.
"Hahaha, have you tried to do the most impossible thing?! You have some courage, but from your tone it looks like you knew the result before you even started right?"
Shi Tu did not answer and keep silence.
That's right, he knew from the start that creating a world free from conflicts is completely impossible, and this description itself is incorrect because the concept of peace depends on everyone.
For example, it is impossible for vampires to live in a world without conflicts, as well as some kinds of demons, not that they want that but it is the only way to live
Can a vampire live forever without drinking blood? The answer is no!!
They have to kill other races for their blood, who would be willing to deliver their blood to vampires on a regular basis? They are thus no different from cattle to vampires, no one will be ok with this.
The peace that Shi Tu want is an absolute judgment in which Shi Tu imposes his ideas of peace sacrificing countless beings who cannot match his thinking.
"Hahaha, do not be sad, there are people who have spent their lives and died to pursuit peace without realizing the truth or been betrayed in the last moments and lost all hope in the world, at least you already knew the result so as not to be shocked."
For the first time the voice was emotional when speaking and he tried to comfort Shi Tu as if he understood his suffering.
Shi Tu smiled sarcastically after realizing something.
"Looks like you're the miserable type, isn't it? Disappointing."
Shi Tu could not hide his disappointment at his belief that he was talking to a wise person but he had not yet lost hope of obtaining some enlightenment, even with his wisdom he continued to do something stupid despite knowing his result.
"Cough, okay. Second question, what do you think love is?"
Shi Tu began to suspect that he was being defrauded here, but at least this topic is better than peace.
"What do you think? Fate? Feelings? Circumstances?"
Shi Tu did not answer anything and give another question.
"I am not sure myself so I ask, such things can only be known from experience, but everyone has their own experience so the answers may different."
It doesn't seem like the voice has any intention of arguing with Shi Tu and just wants to know his opinion.
