All Heavenly destiny reduced to ashes-Chapter 1617 - 356: True Spirit Infinite (1/6)

An Jing didn’t directly answer Embracing the Void.

He merely closed his eyes, seemingly in thought.

"No, that’s not right."

He said: "Thus, Embracing the Void, if you truly wish for me to take your place, to obtain your power, and then once again spread the foundation of the Void across all heavens, allowing all heavens to return to tranquility."

"Then at the very least, you must provide a path."

Opening his eyes, An Jing looked at the endless void before him and said with determination: "Becoming you is meaningless. I already possess your perspective now, but I can’t even see the boundaries of the Middle Thousand World, let alone the Great Thousand and All Heavens and Worlds above?"

"I can’t even ’see,’ so how could I talk about salvation?"

"Indeed."

Not denying this point, Huai Xu Heavenly Dao sighed and said: "Although I possess a singularity, I lack the ability to handle it. I am trapped by my own infinity, and after acquiring self-will, I even start to near the Holy Demon endlessly... I have no more path forward, naturally, I can’t give you one."

"I can only [believe]."

"Believe, entrust this hope to the life within me."

"...Believe, naturally, is right. I’m just very curious." An Jing raised his hand, gazing at his own palm.

At this moment, filled with the power of Embracing the Void, his colors were unprecedentedly vivid, the lines in his palm resembling the patterns of branches, infinitely nested fractals containing information beyond mathematical exhaustion.

With just a glance, he saw infinite different time-spaces, different possibilities of past, present, and future ’An Jing,’ with even more infinity burgeoning at the periphery.

Observing the rise and fall of all beings’ karmic existence like palm lines, and if wishing to obliterate all these parallel time-spaces, it merely required closing one’s eyes...

This is the power of a glimpse of the Heavenly Dao.

[Peak of Unity] power.

Raising his gaze from his palm, clearly sensing the terror of this power, An Jing said slowly: "Why do you believe life holds the possibility to surpass you? You are essentially a collectiveness of all life, every existence, including myself, is just a part of you... Even being equal to you, surpassing you is impossible."

"This is a flawed perception, An Jing, you underestimate the power of infinity and choice." Huai Xu Heavenly Dao disagreed: "Please think seriously again, where do you think you originate from? What is the origin of your Soul Spirit?"

"The origin of Soul Spirit..." An Jing pondered, furrowing his brows.

It was not unfamiliar to him, just now, when he reconciled with himself, he touched that boundary, sensed that essence: "It is..."

"[True Spirit]."

He spoke the answer.

The flesh can be without a soul, only thinking with flesh and blood; the soul can be without flesh, communicating only with signals.

But whether flesh or soul, any existence with intellect, self-awareness, and free will possesses [True Spirit].

"Indeed, [True Spirit]."

Regarding this, Huai Xu Heavenly Dao explained: "An Jing, Heavenly Dao is a standard that shouldn’t possess self-awareness. It’s nature, it’s Dao, it’s the summation of all axioms that can only be acknowledged or rejected, it’s the essence of full spirit, the collectiveness of all possibilities."

"You already know, the essence of the Small Thousand World is an infinite without any gaps, an unsegmented collective of complete possibilities, any possibility within it is ordinary, unable to constitute any events or entities."

"Small Thousand World, like a vast sea composed of infinite particles, reaching out to grasp something, the end result is meaningless void water." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"However, there exists a power and norm, able to act as a filter, from the sea water of collective possibilities, continuously extracting meaningful particles, segments, and pixels, forming a whole, creating a meaningful picture, constructing a human’s image, and even a series of comics."

"That is [True Spirit]."

At this point, Huai Xu Heavenly Dao laughed: "[True Spirit] continuously tweezes infinite possibilities of Small Thousand World, and contracts it into finite individuals, transforming into a sequence of cause and effect, a painting, which is also [me]."

"Infinite True Spirits constitute infinite [me], forming all beings."

"But do you think, the power of [True Spirit] is lesser than a Small Thousand World like me?"

An Jing was silent for a moment and then shook his head: "Of course not, Small Thousand World is a raw material, while True Spirit is... something akin to a blueprint, its essence is extremely high."

And Huai Xu Heavenly Dao acknowledged: "Yes, the power possessed by [True Spirit] surpasses your imagination... The essence of True Spirit reflects the ’power set of world possibility collection,’ that is all combination methods, the cardinality of the power set is strictly greater than the original collection, this means the potential level entailed by True Spirit is absolutely higher than Small Thousand World itself, this ’infinite’ a higher-order infinite, the complexity of possibilities contained in the [me] it converges is utterly incomparable by the sea of voids."

"Imagine, the world is [complete possibility collection], within this, all possibilities are chaotic. But [True Spirit] can tweeze from the collection of all possibilities the [collection of people (intelligent life)]."

"Not only that, [True Spirit] will continuously execute intersection operations. From the chaos of infinite magnitude, layer by layer it filters out specific forms: taking the intersection of [collection of humans] and [collection of males], then the intersection of [collection of those over six feet], followed by [collection of black eyes], [collection of high bone density]...

"Just like Mona Consciousness continuously grasping the concept of ’me’ from Alaya Consciousness, through countless refining and collapsing, True Spirit from the total sum of all evolutionary paths of possibilities anchors a unique minimal point."

"This point, this sequence of cause and effect that is determined, is the entity of [me]."

"This [me] can be flesh, can be soul, can be both, underlying it is an anchored finite trajectory, a sequence of cause and effect, that is the [life of the living being]."

"[Me] is undoubtedly finite, [my life] most likely too, yet this is due to the power of [True Spirit]. [True Spirit] can forcefully extract elements from infinity, compressing and collapsing infinity into [me], hence the power possessed by [True Spirit] transcends the infinite infinite, it far exceeds all possible combination methods of the Small Thousand World.

"In other words, any seemingly [finite individual] actually has an infinite root cause because [me] is an entity collapsed and anchored by [True Spirit] through forceful extraction in the ’world possibility collection.’

"An Jing, any living being possessing self-awareness is fundamentally infinite, because this is the potential granted to them by [True Spirit]."
