Gods Vanish on a Cloudy Day
Chapter 19 Zhu Zhao Heaven (5000)
Wisdom.
Wisdom is using 'intelligence' to 'practice wisdom'.
There's no need to talk much about the word 'intelligence'. Those who understand, understand. Those who don't aren't intelligent.
But 'wisdom' has much to say. After all, among the myriad beings in the world, there are countless intelligent people. One could even say that anyone who can read and write, who knows the sun and distinguishes the moon, is an intelligent person. But if you want people to praise you as 'wise', you must have the ability to change the world. Just like the craftsmen of ancient times, who could turn useless stones into stone axes and blades; or the great artisans who created steam engines, making things that no one had done before and that later generations admired. Only then can they be called wise.
'I' am the Wisdom Tree.
The Wisdom Tree is not a tree of the mortal realm. It is a phantom tree that gathers the divine thoughts of the spirit world in the spirit world, allowing it to grow and flourish. The first Wisdom Tree was formed by the condensation of sparks created by the collision and friction of all minds and thoughts in the universe in the subspace. Countless sparks of thought, whether useful or useless, whether knowing nine ways to stir-fry chili peppers with meat, or knowing how to tie the fanciest bow on shoelaces with one hand, are all manifestations of wisdom.
And the divine tree that grows from these sparks of wisdom is the Wisdom Tree.
Eating the fruit of the Wisdom Tree will bring a continuous stream of 'wisdom'. Of course, ordinary people who eat the fruit of the Wisdom Tree, although gaining wisdom, will lose their intelligence, their will scattered by the endless sparks of thought, turning them into crazy lunatics.
But those with background and strength who eat the fruit of wisdom can extract the precious inspiration from the myriad thoughts. Even if the collision of trillions of sparks of thought is a useless flash, there will still be a lightning bolt that cuts through the night. People with strength can distinguish the difference between a flash and lightning, and extract its brilliance for their own use.
Generally speaking, 'I' don't mind letting others eat 'my' fruit. It's tiring to have so many sparks of inspiration hanging on the branches. But it's best for those with pure minds and potential to eat them. After all, a Wisdom Tree is still a Wisdom Tree, and a Wisdom Fruit is still a Wisdom Fruit. How can so many lunatics be allowed to go out and ruin its reputation? So, ordinary Wisdom Trees will set up various tests to make sure that the person eating the fruit won't go crazy before letting them eat it, so as not to damage the Wisdom Tree's reputation.
But if you are a dependent, there are not so many rules. The fertilizer spreader can eat if he wants to, and give it to others if he wants to. 'I' am also happy to be at leisure.
Speaking of which, the fertilizer spreader is indeed a peculiar person.
If most people who eat my fruit will have wisdom surging in their hearts, then the fertilizer spreader has greatly improved his 'intellect' after eating my fruit.
This intellect naturally has a lot to say.
The word 'intellect' has already been said before. If you still don't understand after saying it again, it's like the emperor's new clothes, too embarrassing to look at…
And the word 'force', seemingly simple, is actually extremely complex.
There are many kinds of force in this world: power, wealth, martial force, strength… but in the final analysis, they are all talking about the same kind of force.
That is, using 'force' to make others obey one's will, so that one can do whatever one wants.
Hmm… it's a bit difficult to describe… there should be simpler words to describe it… in human language, what is the most primitive and barbaric representation of power…
Knife, spear, sword… no… wait…
That's right!
It's the fist!
Trees don't have fists. Thinking about this is still a bit difficult. Perhaps this is a cognitive bias.
All in all, intellect is essentially a talent that makes fists more powerful.
And the fist itself is an excellent representation of force.
'Fists' are willful. People with 'fists' can define rules. People with 'fists' can use their intelligence to regulate the intelligence of the world. If there is anything in this world that is eternally不变的, it must be 'fists'.
And the fertilizer official may be lacking in wisdom, but he is truly extraordinary in intellect and 'fists'. After eating the fruit, he can turn the flashes of lightning in countless thoughts into power to express. When he uses one point of strength to throw a punch, others who have cultivated longer than him and have more experience than him cannot match him even with ten points of strength, and can only be 'persuaded' by him.
This is the result of having intellect far superior to ordinary people.
Generally speaking, even people with great wisdom, 'wisdom beyond compare', cannot do this.
This is something that only a guy with 'intellect beyond compare' can do!
And his so-called Zhuzhou incarnation is even more terrifying. It can simply be said to be a unique skill in the way of 'intellect' – that thing is a frame, and anything can be stuffed into it. All the unique skills and divine powers that others have come up with using their intellect, he only needs to screen them with this frame, and he can safely claim that it is Zhuzhou.
Such forceful plundering, such willful excess, is truly the overlord of the way of intellect!
If 'I' were not extraordinarily intelligent, I might have been raised by this fertilizer spreader from a Wisdom Tree into an Intellect Tree.
However, that's not necessarily a bad thing.
If I really had strong and powerful intellect, then maybe I could help the busy fertilizer official, so that he could stop for a while and have time to rest and relax.
Blazing sun, floating clouds, a round of fiery phoenix sun illuminates the heavens and earth.
Personal space, central continent.
The bee-human girl Sarah held her small face in both hands, sitting on the tree trunk in a daze. In the distant, vast mountains, there was a faint humming of elemental spirits roaring through the heavens and earth, barely audible in the clamor of the leaf sea.
"Tree, tree."
The words of the Wisdom Tree still echoed in her ears, which immediately made her a little confused, and she said: "If Su Zhou hears you saying bad things about him in his small world in order to brag, will he scold you!"
"And why pretend to be a narrator's tone, it's so weird!"
Immediately, the clamor of the leaf sea rose again, and a few buzzing sounds of soul transmission could be faintly heard, which immediately made Sarah laugh and say: "Okay, okay, I know you're telling the truth, Lord Su Zhou won't be angry about this kind of thing, but I just like to tease you!"
For a time, the sound of the leaf sea surging became even louder, with a hint of scolding.
Sarah sat on the tree trunk, swinging her feet with a smile, which was also a pleasure she was accustomed to.
Some time ago, when Su Zhou was constantly running around in the world of creation, he would occasionally come to his personal space, one was to ensure the progress of the 'Heavenly Evolution World' related deductions, and to fix bugs from time to time, and the second was to chat with people.
Although Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming, as well as great existences such as Yala, were in the world of creation, sometimes Su Zhou also wanted to be alone, touching cats and stroking foxes.
There are no cats and foxes in the personal space, but there are trees, which is almost the same.
And recently, Su Zhou often came here to be alone and relax.
"There are really a lot of high-level civilizations I've encountered recently."
Whether it was Sarah, the Wisdom Tree, the Blade Spirit of the Extinction Blade, or the Teng Snake's soul that was already trying to rebuild its body, Su Zhou had grabbed them all to stroke their fur and smooth their scales.
That was because they could all hear Su Zhou's almost complaining, or simply confiding, self-talk: "Some time ago, I happened to meet the Alliance of the Strong from the surrounding fourteen universes. They don't have Dao Integration experts, so they are very cautious and careful, and they also said they were willing to join Zhuzhou Heaven... I wouldn't force them to join, but I happened to hear news from the Earth home planet's pantheon."
"Among these civilization alliances, there are actually several alliances that have encountered many pantheons that left Earth, and two even had conflicts with the Jianmu Divine Ark from Zhengguo and fought a battle... Of course, they were defeated miserably, because when they left their mother world and went to the multiverse, a few experts who were close to Dao Integration had already appeared among those ancestors. Good heavens, it was simply a dimensionality reduction strike."
Speaking of this, the Wisdom Tree could still remember Su Zhou's chuckle, which was an extremely cheerful and relaxed smile, like the spring sunshine… Only at this time could the World Tree remember that its master was not a supreme expert whose majesty spread throughout the void, but a young man whose mentality was still quite young, even a seventeen-year-old youth.
Of course, he was also very handsome!
At that time, Su Zhou continued: "These civilizations were beaten up by my ancestors, and they suffered great losses. It is said that they were demanded a lot of treasures as compensation. It just so happened that my ancestors were in a hurry to leave, so they didn't want too much. Otherwise, they might have directly educated them like the Beast God Realm."
"And this time, when they met me and knew that I was a descendant of the Divine Ark pantheon at the time, their expressions were quite wonderful… It was almost like they were about to kneel down and apologize to me, begging me to spare the lives of the beings in their universe. They could pay any price, and it didn't matter if they were slaves or servants."
When Su Zhou said these words, he was originally chuckling, and even the Wisdom Tree and Sarah on the side lightly shook their leaves, covering their mouths and chuckling.
But soon, the young man stopped smiling.
"This is wrong."
He said calmly, making the entire personal space seem to be a lot quieter: "I didn't let them kneel."
"Disputes between the two worlds are normal. Since they have already lost and compensated, then it's over."
Su Zhou said lightly, overlooking the beings in the personal space, his tone indifferent: "Why are they afraid? Isn't it just because I am a Dao Integration expert? It's obviously a dispute that ended thousands or tens of thousands of years ago, but they still think I will retaliate for it. Isn't it just because a Dao Integration expert can do that?"
"Unreasonable, only following one's own will, disagreeing, and even deciding the life and death of the beings in a universe without a Dao Integration expert..."
Saying this, even the most insensitive bee-human girl could understand the displeasure in Su Zhou's words, as well as a faint trace of compassion: "They have never communicated with me, and they have never understood my Great Dao, but just because I am a Dao Integration expert, because I am strong, so they naturally think that I can oppress them, I can oppress them without any reason, and they have no other way but to kneel down and beg for mercy in front of me!"
"They can only beg—even if I don't let them kneel, they are afraid, they are fearful, they are crying… More than a dozen Great Heavenly Venerates, more than a hundred ancestors of the One Dao race! How proud they are in their own universe, truly the lords of heaven and earth!"
"But in front of me? They are simply dogs, trembling with fear, begging me for mercy, just for a chance to 'kneel'."
At that time, the World Tree saw that Su Zhou clenched the hilt of the knife at his waist. He laughed again, but the sound of the laughter was full of bitterness.
There was also anger.
The young man felt indignant about this.
The voice gradually fell, and Su Zhou's tone became a little tired: "I must… end this prejudice."
"Wisdom Tree, Sarah, Little Knife, and Teng Snake… I must go and do this, you can all understand, right… The era when Dao Integration experts can do whatever they want to other universes by virtue of their own power is over."
"Beings don't have to be afraid, don't have to be humble, at least, they shouldn't feel terrified because of a 'kneeling' qualification."
"Isn't this very right…" Not to mention the Wisdom Tree, Sarah felt that Lord Su Zhou's thoughts were simply right, and couldn't be more right. On the contrary, it should be done like this!
"You have come all the way." Thinking of this, Sarah sincerely agreed: "Everything you have done is correct!"
But she saw Su Zhou shake his head, and even reach out and pat her on the head: "Silly bug, you're too young, what do you know?"
"Aren't Dao Integration experts human? Even if I build a Zhuzhou Heaven police station and force them to suppress them, isn't that also suppression? Not to mention anything else, there are many Dao Integration experts who have no intention of doing whatever they want, but I still have to suppress their talent rights that they have cultivated to this day—I want to restrain them from using their power at will."
"I'm not young…" Sarah angrily slapped away Su Zhou's hand that was rubbing her head: "I'm eleven years old! Insect-humans can be grandmothers at this time!"
"But you're not an insect-human, you're the Candle of Insects." Su Zhou was not annoyed, but his mood improved a lot: "I'm almost thirty years old, which is like an infant to the Candle, you're eleven years old, and ordinary Candles have just hatched!"
After teasing her, Su Zhou stood up.
He was ready to leave.
Before leaving the personal space, the young man shook his head: "In the name of justice, doing things with power. The truth of this multiverse is really contradictory. No wonder the great existence is also known as the Lord of Strife. What is not contradictory and without strife?"
Perhaps, only true correctness.
But that thing doesn't exist.
——Look.
Recalling Su Zhou's words at that time, the Wisdom Tree stirred its soul's voice and transmitted it to Sarah: The fertilizer official is indeed a person with strong intellect——if he were a person with wisdom, he might consider creating a brand new civilization system, a brand new regulatory agency to solve this problem.
——But people with intellect are very simple. He only needs to build a police station, and then give those who are oppressed and don't want to kneel but can't beat those bad people a chance to call the police.
Thinking of this, even the Wisdom Tree couldn't help but be filled with emotion.
She raised her head, her tentacles dancing, able to sense the situation outside the world, outside the personal space.
In the extremely dim cosmic void, there was originally a chaotic and dark space-time turbulence, with only the brilliance of many worlds and stars flickering, like swaying candlelight.
Peering outward from the personal space, one could only see a blurry scene dotted like a cosmic map, but at this moment, the Wisdom Tree saw a radiance light up from the depths of the extremely dim abyss, instantly illuminating all directions——
At that moment, even the divine tree felt 'dazzling and blinding', but she still followed this radiance, crossed the vast and endless turbulence, and saw the endless river of worlds flowing in the multiverse. The young divine tree saw that in the sealing cracks that crisscrossed the entire multiverse like rivers, there were scenes from many worlds flickering, including farmers, workers, soldiers, and woodcutters. All beings were in it, walking in the vast mundane world.
Everything the divine tree saw was eternal. She saw that her fertilizer official, her master, the strong man she followed, the young man named Su Zhou, raised his hand, and the three silver fragments were rotating and surrounding in his hand, releasing endless brilliance. The radiance that was illuminating the entire multiverse was coming out of it, sweeping across the endless towering realms, floating in many mundane worlds, and lingering for a long time.
The multiverse was silent at this moment, and only the sound of the three fragments vibrating and resonating echoed through the myriad realms.
——Master.
At this moment, this is what the Wisdom Tree was thinking.
She thought: Does the master's heart encompass such a vast and broad universe?
Or is it even bigger, even more vast, to the point where even wisdom cannot imagine its end?
Sarah on the side could also see all this. The little Candle Dragon girl's thoughts were very simple: "Is this patching up the sky?"
Yes, and no.
In the multiverse void, Su Zhou held the Heavenly God Scale, the Galaxy Star, and the Final Annihilation Town Seal. He had not yet begun to mend the Great Seal, but when these three fragments really gathered together, it seemed that there was no need for anyone to do anything at all, and things would be done like this.
If things continued like this, without doing anything, without adding any unnecessary touches, perhaps the Great Seal would be completely repaired.
Gazing at the fragments in his hand, the young man was silent.
For a time, he seemed to see the phantoms of many worlds flashing before his eyes. The Divine Tree World, the Samsara World, the Divine Dragon World, and many other worlds flashed before his eyes like a revolving lantern, blurred and flickering indistinctly, but only a clear belief turned into a torrent and river, running through from beginning to end.
"But innovation is about adding unnecessary touches——it's about intervening when you see injustice, and helping when you see something bad."
"It may make mistakes, but it is also for the better."
Speaking in a low voice this belief that ran through all his actions, everything blurred became clear again. Su Zhou stood in the turbulent multiverse void, and faced the past self, the naive self, the wrong self, and the self who had made mistakes but repented one by one. The young man laughed loudly, and then threw the three fragments in his hand casually.
Immediately, the three sealing fragments that had already begun to resonate and interweave, and played the endless principles of the Great Dao, merged into the void. Between the flashes of silver brilliance, a huge and indescribable vortex of creation appeared in front of Su Zhou.
Su Zhou sat cross-legged in front of it, and many Dao Integration experts and experts from many universes stood vaguely behind him, protecting him and witnessing.
——The creation of Zhuzhou Heaven has begun.
