The discussion between Snake Father and Scale Feather Lord did not avoid outsiders.
Looking at the reactions of the cardinals, it was obvious that they already knew about this future. Perhaps it was because of Loki's prophecy, or perhaps because the Pillar God who had contracted with them had already mentioned this matter.
It is also possible that no one or God has told them - after all, that is a future that can be deduced based on logic alone.
Not all roads have an end, and some roads will last forever. But transcendence is not among them.
——The Snake Father will eventually come to an end. And His appointed day is drawing near.
This is a path with an ending that has been decided from the very beginning.
Those who transcend will never retreat or stop - and for this reason, those who transcend will never have peace.
But this kind of infinite progress day after day is a kind of happiness for those who transcend. No matter where you go, you will see a new destination when you look up.
——However, "transcendence" must have a goal in order to be established.
So if we set our sights on the infinite future, the transcendent will eventually face an inevitable fate.
That is, one day they will become the "strongest" from the "transcenders".
And when they are incomparable, it means they betray the Tao. Just as rebels become monarchs, they are no longer the rebels they were before...
It is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to defend it. This is probably the direction of this story.
"[The Pillar of this World shall never betray this path]," the Lord of Scale Feather used Aiwass's body to look at the Snake Father, with deep green pupils and a low voice, "This is What you said to me when I became the Pillar God
“Now, I am still the God of Adaptation. And you..."
"-I will never retreat. "
Father Snake interrupted the Lord of Scales and Feathers and said clearly.
"The pillar gods in this world are all slaves of the old self..."
Heng Wo suddenly spoke and said this.
In an instant, there was a brief silence in the room.
"Aiwas" looked at Heng. I nodded slightly.
Then he looked at "Cardinal Cyril" again, broke the silence and asked directly: "When is the set date? ”
“August 1st has been confirmed. "
Snake Father said without hesitation: "On that day, I will complete the final transcendence - crossing the twilight wall.
"No matter whether I survive or not, no matter what is on the other side of that wall... I will not continue to exist as a pillar god. No matter whether I will die, leave, be reborn, or Even if I reach the top... I will leave the river of change.
"This world will face 'eight days without transcendence'." On August 8th, the new Pillar God will arrive. ”
…August 1st.
The quiet Aiwass heard about this day.
He suddenly reacted.
In another world line, Huan Tiansi’s arrival happens to be August 3rd!
If the death of Snake Father was brought forward, then according to this time... maybe it was not Huan Tiansi who came to power through the act of "father-killing", but that Snake Father reached the end of his road. .
When there is no Pillar God in the Gengyi River, Huantian Si will come to dominate it.
If nothing unexpected happens...that will probably be the day of the showdown between Aiwass and Huantiansi.
......Is there less than half a year left?
Such thoughts emerged in Aiwass's mind, and for a moment he felt a little lack of reality and tension.
"It's not that there is no way at all..."
At this moment, the Lord of Scale Feathers said leisurely: "You can also try to modify your own way like me. Journey narrative."
"Transcendence and adaptation are different paths, Kunpeng."
Snake father refused without hesitation: "I am destined to practice the path of transcendence. In the end, there will never be a turning back. If you try to transcend this fatal fate, it is equivalent to betraying the path of transcendence on another level. This is the "paradox of transcendence", which is infinite without right and wrong. "The wall."
He looked at "Aiwass" with his purple-reddish snake eyes: "Just live like this, with my scales and feathers. You... too." A kind of continuation of me."
"-However, 'easier' and 'survival' are not in conflict."
" Aiwass crossed his arms and shook his head slightly. : "The way of adaptation also flows with the blood of transcendence-just like the way of authority.
"I will never forget-in the past, predicting the future was the ability to transcend the path. Anchoring the future and then moving beyond it...isn't that what you've been doing? "
When he heard the secret suddenly revealed by his boss, Aiwass was slightly startled, and then suddenly realized.
No wonder...
The Lord of Scale Feather has a His title is "The God of Scales and Feathers", and the church's official title is even the "God of Scales and Feathers", so where did his "scales and feathers" come from, so that he can Did it become the title of the Pillar God?
As expected - it was the father of all snakes who was the "Feathered Snake"
The Lord of Scales and Feathers had stolen it in the past! The Snake Father's precognitive ability is just like "Spider Silk Tantra" stealing Loki's blood of the Supreme God.
It is precisely because the road of adaptation is mixed with a part of the road of transcendence that the current adaptation is. Only those who are infected with the characteristics of transcendence - whether they are assassins who kill the strong, rich and officials, or doctors who use poison to defeat the strong, medicine to defeat death, and those who fight against more powerful and overwhelming creatures than intelligent beings. The hunters of the catastrophic "warcraft" all have a touch of transcendence.
The essence of survival is the survival of the fittest.It is "evolution"! And evolution is undoubtedly "transcendence for survival"...
...This so-called drink and peck is a given.
The old act of "wearing scales and feathers" has now become the starting point for adapting to a big deviation on the road...
"——This is not surprising, Aiwass ."
When Aiwass thought of this, he suddenly felt that the space around him became dark again.
In the dark space, a chair appeared in front of him. The Lord of Scales and Feathers had his knees crossed and his fingers intertwined. The faceless man was not sitting very upright on the chair.
There is no light source around, but unexpectedly, the ethereal face of the Lord of Scales and Feathers can be seen clearly.
"——This scene looks like a villain soldier reporting the situation to the backlit boss."
Aiwass couldn't help complaining.
But the Lord of Scales and Feathers just smiled and said: "Actually, it's not much different."
"You guessed it right... The reason why the road of adaptation has deviated greatly" , because the road of adaptation is mixed with a part of the road of transcendence. Because of this, it will be more stable to adapt to the path when there are strong enemies.
“But now, without external enemies, it is easy to deviate from the path of adaptation.
“But this situation is not unexpected. Rather, it’s perfectly reasonable—even inevitable.
"Think about your own situation. The impact of the Tao on the material world is long-lasting and far-reaching. The later pillar gods will eventually be affected by the first ones. The authoritative gods also have transcendent On the one hand, there are traces of strength at the same time; the God of Love yearns for the ultimate beauty, and also has the desire for beasts.
“Before I finally ascended to God, I was also a believer of the Snake Father, and even more so. His apostles. "
The Lord of Scales and Feathers said slowly: "I stole the scales named 'Bagua Yao' and the feathers named 'Prey Rain' from him. The former is the ability to predict, and the latter is the essence of evolution. "
"...Why are you telling me such a thing? "
Hearing this essential secret related to the replacement of the pillar gods, Aiwass had no energy left to be curious and amazed. Instead, he raised his spirits and became extremely vigilant.
" That's naturally because you have some relationship with Snake Father. "
The Lord of Scale Feather smiled and said: "Huan Tiansi is the son of Snake Father, and you are the half body cut off by Huan Tiansi. You can be seen as a part of him, as his brother, or as his descendant. But no matter what, you have some connection with Snake Father on the level of 'fate'.
“——Do you know why various small-probability events always happen around you?”
