3771: C3771 No Freedom

C3771 No Freedom

From Meng Fan's countless calculations, it was impossible to deduce whether or not the person who destroyed the Universe of Emperor Han possessed the strength of a rank.

This meant that in Meng Fan's current knowledge, it was impossible to understand.

It was also possible that the destruction of Universe of Emperor Han was not done by one person.

Or perhaps, what other methods the World of Meaning had that ordinary people would not be able to comprehend, was enough to easily destroy an entire universe.

No matter which possibility it was, it made Meng Fan feel uncomfortable all over.

Stepping into the Immortal Realm was akin to ascending a mountain. One would have thought that one would be closer to the heavens and have an ancient history, but would have been amazed at the majesty of the heavens and felt humbled by their own inferiority.

Just like the very ancient proverb Infinite Domain, the more a person knew, the more he would feel like he knew nothing at all.

It was difficult for a man who had not read much, or even read much, to find himself ignorant, and the more he knew of the world, the more he had seen of the landscape, the more he had read, the less he would think he knew.

The World of Meaning had classified civilizations very early on. There was an important stage in the development of civilizations, and in the eyes of the World of Meaning, there was a stage that was even more important than stepping into the law realm, one that went from being an omniscient civilization to an ignorant civilization.

The omniscient civilization uses simple images, imagination, and assumptions to understand the world, such as the creation of myths and legends, to explain where the world came from, and where people came from, and to explain all sorts of irrational phenomena with all sorts of legends and ghosts. At this stage, the civilization thinks that everything in the world is explained, and we can understand everything in the world, so we are omniscient.

Very few civilizations could escape from the predicament of omniscience and step into ignorance. Once they stepped into ignorance, they would admit that there were many things in this world that they could not understand, that they could explore, that they could also ascend, and that they could not deceive themselves into knowing everything. They would stay in the cave and continue drilling for fire.

When Meng Fan stepped into the Immortal Realm, everything that happened between real and fake caused Meng Fan to feel uneasy.

He wasn't happy at all because he had become an undying.

He also understood that there was no difference between real and fake in this world. Just like many ancient civilizations that believed in a god that didn't exist, when there were more people who believed and people who were pious, this god became real, and even had avatars and physical entities.

True or false, it did not exist.

Between the truth and the falsehood, Meng Fan created reincarnation with his own blood. He created incarnations, broke all the barriers between the laws, made the avatars go back in the past, and returned to before his sister left. He tried countless times to see if he could change the history that happened.

At that moment, Meng Fan was ignorant.

He did not know if the "past" that he had created time and time again was just an illusion, a deduction, or a reality.

He wasn't sure if he could really change the "past" again and again, or if it would change his present state.

He didn't know if what he saw was real or just a dream inside his head.

He doesn't know anything.

It was only because he was stubborn that he kept trying and failing.

But there was one thing he was sure of.

The avatars created by him did not know that he was just an avatar. They had a complete life, had their own beliefs, and had different paths. From the moment they were released by Meng Fan, Meng Fan became a bystander and was unable to interfere with them.

None of the avatars even noticed Meng Fan's existence.

Those avatars were merely the avatars of Meng Fan. So, they all had powerful talent and the ability to sense all living things in the world. Every single one of them could be said to be born with knowledge.

But even so, even though the avatars were similar, because Meng Fan had placed them in different places, different experiences and different situations, all of the avatars' lives were very different.

Some had transformed into evil gods that ruled over their followers and swept across the world, unrestrained as they pleased.

Some had become ministers, and were loyal throughout their lives. They were the pillars of their nation.

Some people put everything out of the way, nurture their bodies and nature, and finally end their lives.

Wait a minute.

Perhaps it was evil, or loyal, or wise, or tyrannical, or benevolent.

But one thing was the same.

They all believed that they controlled their own destinies.

In addition, every single one of them were powerful experts, making it difficult for them to face any opponents.

This was the source of Meng Fan's fear.

Was he, or was he, living in someone's cycle of reincarnation?

Perhaps, living under someone's watchful eyes, every single movement was seen clearly, and he felt that the freedom he possessed, was it really freedom?

It would be too one-sided if Meng Fan was already so powerful that such a thing could never happen.

The avatars created by Meng Fan were all peak experts in their respective worlds. They were absolutely powerful as well, so they were confident that they controlled their own fates.

Previously, this fear had little effect on Meng Fan.

However, ever since he heard that the Universe of Emperor Han had been destroyed, Meng Fan suddenly realized that there was still an unimaginably strong power in this world, at least within the World of Meaning.

Resistance, was not because of oppression.

Cattle and sheep were oppressed by humans for thousands of years, and they had never fought back.

Resisting was because he realized that his own fate was being controlled by someone else. His own life and death, his own lifetime of struggle, were all nothing more than a dream in the eyes of others.

It was because he realized that above him, there was an incomparably powerful existence. He put down the thread, entwined his hands and feet, and turned himself into a puppet.

Meng Fan suddenly thought of Hundred-Step Immortal.

Many years ago, before the creator of Dragon Elephant Valley was even born, Hundred-Step Immortal was still a teenager and was drawn into Ancestor of Human Race's chess game. Because of various coincidences, he became a very important chess piece.

One day, Hundred-Step Immortal realized that he was a chess piece.

So, he went through all the obstacles and defeated countless people. In the end, he walked in front of Ancestor of Human Race and flipped over the chess board.

Meng Fan thought of Chaos Emperor.

This old fellow who had been hiding in the Chaos World and controlling the fate of many people in the world.

Many people thought they had a choice.

And the choice, was freedom.

Wrong.

There was no choice in this world.

An apple, a banana, put in front of, can only eat one, eat which one?

Was this a choice?

When you choose an apple, that's your destiny.

You said, no, I'm free, I have choices, I can choose bananas, if I choose bananas...

In this world, there were no 'ifs'.0

Meng Fan hadn't changed either.
