Chapter 129 Heavenly Mandate Chart

The Heavenly Mandate Chart, one of the highest inheritances of destiny.

Much like most impressions of destiny, this great existence who governs fatalism, controls destiny, chooses freedom, and rules over all things, actually possesses a rather artistic temperament.

His highest inheritances, the Book of Calamity and the Heavenly Mandate Chart, are records of destined tribulations and hymns to sing the songs of victory. And lastly, the Dao Transformation Seal, which Su Zhou understood implicitly upon obtaining the Heavenly Mandate Chart, confirms the right of all living beings to freely choose their destiny.

It sounds like some unknown struggling author, third-rate composer, and calligrapher.jpg

In short, the essence of the Heavenly Mandate Chart is to plan an entire destiny system. Its power can be used to predict the future, control fate, and understand the messages of all things—although the power of the time system is now forbidden, and destiny, like Yala, has been nerfed by the planners (all the Great Existences), as Su Zhou had seen before, the power of the Heavenly Mandate Chart is enough to construct an entire destiny universe and to plan the entire system.

Unlike the Prajna Tattoo, the power of the Prajna Tattoo is for reversal, while the essence of the Heavenly Mandate Chart is for planning.

After obtaining the inheritance of the Heavenly Mandate Chart, Su Zhou analyzed it completely in an instant.

After all, he had experienced what was theoretically a very long time, even a complete era, in the Symphony Universe, and had personally blasted down five God-Kings, witnessing the flow of eternity and change, so he naturally had a deep understanding of the essential power of the Heavenly Mandate Chart.

But the interesting thing about destiny is this: time has no meaning for destiny.

Just like before, Su Zhou, Destiny, and the Harbinger witnessed the Fifth Symphony Universe from its birth to the most developed and prosperous time of civilization, but that was just a picture of destiny, a harbinger of possibility.

Billions or even infinite amounts of time are just a kind of spreading possibility for destiny. He had already recorded everything, so he already knew everything.

"No wonder the Harbinger and Destiny don't get along—one is happily exploring beyond the boundaries, and suddenly Destiny pops up and says, 'I already knew what you were exploring, it's all destiny.'"

After imagining it, Su Zhou couldn't help but narrow his eyes, looking at Destiny and the Harbinger on one side: "Didn't these two fight? No, maybe they already fought. Oh well, anyway, I don't need to understand the affairs of the Great Existences so clearly."

Thinking of this, Su Zhou was suddenly stunned.

"Wait, if all the Great Existences are gathered together..."

"If a Great Existence, like the Harbinger, proposes an idea, first it has to go through Yala's questioning, 'Are you right? Are you wrong? There must be something unreasonable here!'"

"Then, he has to go through Twilight's mumbling: 'Is it meaningful?' 'Is it not?' 'Oh.'"

"Then, there's the Twin Divine Trees' dry, tasteless, and very insincere approval: 'Oh, yes, your existence is right' 'Yes, that's right, your continuation is reasonable.'"

"Finally, you have to listen to Destiny's soft emphasis 'I already knew what you said, it's all destiny.'"

Just thinking about it makes his fists clench and tremble, and he can't help but want to give these Great Existences a punch.

These are just a few of the Great Existences that Su Zhou is more familiar with. Counting the ones he is not so familiar with, I am afraid that Terminator will also say "It's going to be over anyway," Coordinator will say "That's enough," and Balancer will say "Let me balance it."

Excluding Miracle and Transcendence's "What you said is not necessarily true" "I have transcended, you can figure it out yourself", perhaps only Samsara and Oneness are more likely to say less...

"Oh!"

Thinking of this, Su Zhou suddenly realized something: "No wonder the Lonely Sovereign is popular. It turns out that He doesn't speak!"

Silence is golden!

Looking at it this way, Su Zhou felt that he might have misunderstood Yala at the beginning. The Great Existences' war of correctness was probably not just a siege of Twilight and a beatdown of Chaos, but all the Great Existences were bombing each other.

This makes a lot more sense.

[Innovation, take this]

While Su Zhou was thinking about these things, the Harbinger's will on one side said: [Exhaustive Distant Path]

"Ah, thank you."

After thanking him, he took the inheritance, another Great Inheritance—Su Zhou was no longer surprised.

Su Zhou's cooperation with the Harbinger Space has been going on for a long time. Although the Harbinger Space is not the Harbinger's will itself, it actually follows the Harbinger's will and mission, just like the Creation Giant Hand under [Creation]. Cooperating with it is essentially cooperating with the Harbinger.

Su Zhou and the Harbinger are also very familiar. Not to mention that under Yala's leadership, he had already met the Harbinger once. The Harbinger has also been paying attention to Su Zhou and influencing the communication activity of the entire multiverse, promoting Su Zhou's growth.

Of course, it is not only promoting Su Zhou. The Harbinger equally promotes the growth of all civilizations and all individuals, but Su Zhou stands out from the crowd and is the most noticeable.

This time, Su Zhou's actions in the Symphony Universe were actually upholding the path of the 'Harbinger' and trying to pioneer 'possibilities beyond possibilities'.

That is, 'impossible' things.

"...I see."

At this moment, Su Zhou silently comprehended the information contained in the Exhaustive Distant Path, as well as the Harbinger's principles and correctness.

Then, he realized something: "Indeed, the Harbinger and Destiny really don't see eye to eye."

The Harbinger's infinite exploration is essentially the endless expansion of the boundaries of 'possibility', chasing 'impossibility', and transforming 'impossibility' into 'possibility'.

This is the Lord of the Horizon. Inside the horizon is everything possible, the collection of all possibilities, but outside the horizon is the collection of all impossibilities.

As a Great Existence, the Harbinger already knows everything—this everything is everything that can be described, obtained, practiced, and can be perceived, understood and acted upon by people, that is, everything in the horizon.

The past, the present, the future, everything that has happened, is about to happen, and can be described by infinite destiny is by no means what the Harbinger is looking for—but everything that destiny can describe is already 'everything', and there can be no existence outside of it.

For a finite life, infinite destiny is freedom, eternal unknown, and the possibility of the impossible.

However, for the infinite torrent, the Transcendent, and even the Great Existence who has transcended the infinite and transcends the 'impossible possibility' itself, where is their 'impossibility'?

The Harbinger's exploration of this path is equivalent to actively walking into a dead end.

However, He wants to explore the impossible outside of possibility, to explore 'something that he doesn't even know what it is', and to pursue 'eternal unknown'!

"Very ideal, very beautiful, and an aspirational path."

This is Su Zhou's evaluation of the Harbinger's path, a path that he doesn't need to verify or think about at all, and can feel 'romantic' with just his instinct: "Destiny describes some things, Chaos questions everything, proposes different possibilities, and the Harbinger practices the path to create impossible realities that destiny has never described."

But this is also an ultimate 'path of madness' 'path of emptiness'.

The Harbinger's correctness is actually the correctness that Su Zhou understands best. If he has to say it, the path between the Harbinger and Miracle is very similar, even exactly the same, but the Harbinger will be defeated and enter the Great Seal, probably because of his own madness.

Pursuing the path of 'what you don't even know what it is' is too easy to fall into madness. Only the wisest wise men and the most determined Harbingers can persist in their dreams even after knowing what crazy and meaningless things they have done.

But... what about the losers?

The Harbinger must be sacrificed. How many people must die in order to explore the unknown world?

Miracles must be created. How many worlds have been destroyed by the fighting in order to create the existence of miracles?

The tendency of this dream is different. The more similar the existences are, the more difficult it is to understand each other.

And [Exhaustive Distant Path].

[Is such a path]

The Harbinger knows Su Zhou's thoughts, because Su Zhou has not concealed anything. He knows Su Zhou's evaluation of himself, and also knows the other party's view of his path: [Beyond the end, there is a farther distance. The Harbinger is the one who creates the path to the outside of the 'end']

[Infinite people will sacrifice for it, but it is their own choice]

The ultimate goal of the Exhaustive Distant Path is to explore the unknown outside the known, the impossible outside the possible. At least a Transcendent can explore this. Without the essence of infinity, thinking about this matter itself will drive you crazy.

However, under this, the ability to freely go to 'any area that can be reached' to any place leading to the 'known' is completely sufficient.

[Innovation, you have fulfilled our agreement]

Compared to Destiny, the Harbinger's will is straightforward, firm, and simple, just like the radiation that runs through the entire multiverse, extending straight to the unknown distance. He directly said: [You are going to Houtian, the primordial world of Chaos. Destiny gave you the key, and I will give you the path]

[Use the power of the Heavenly Mandate Chart to spread your purpose, and then, the Exhaustive Distant Path will unfold the road for you]

"So simple?"

It's not that Su Zhou doesn't believe it, it's just that what he said is like opening any door: "Say my destination, and the Exhaustive Distant Path will open the door for me?"

[Otherwise?]

The Harbinger's words are full of taken-for-granted charm: [Is it possible for you to reach Houtian?]

Su Zhou felt that, aside from those Houtian natives and those with beacons, if even he could not reach Houtian, then probably no one in this multiverse could reach Houtian.

[That's right]

Knowing Su Zhou's thoughts, the Harbinger affirmed: [You can go to Houtian]

"Okay."

Since the other party has said so, what else can Su Zhou say? He tried to run the Exhaustive Distant Path's magic.

Then, the road to Houtian was opened to him.

Suddenly, the void of the multiverse brightened and then dimmed. An incredible light illuminated the surrounding world and stars, and even the light of the Symphony Universe was overwhelmed. Pure white, pure black, and chaos intertwined, blurring the surface of all universes, not knowing whether it was light or darkness.

Then, a silver road appeared, which was a light belt woven from infinite patterns, refined and mysterious. Light bloomed from these patterns, even penetrating the light of chaos and reaching its depths.

A road, a door, the silver light led forward, reaching the realm of chaos.

And this road was burst out from Su Zhou's body and intertwined—the causal relationship of chaos in Su Zhou's body was simply countless, and it was extremely easy to build this road.

Staring at the road in front of him and the light of chaos flashing at the end of the road, Su Zhou immediately understood that as long as he stepped on this road, he would directly enter the realm of Houtian.

It's that simple.

"So... that's it!"

At this moment, Su Zhou completely understood the power of the Exhaustive Distant Path—and also completely understood the essence of all Great Inheritances.

All Great Inheritances need the 'infinite' power as a foundation to exert their full effect.

In other words, without a torrent, it is impossible to exert its most fundamental meaning.

For example, the Exhaustive Distant Path, its essential principle is 'ignore all processes, as long as it is possible to arrive'.

In other words, it is an 'infinite non-probability engine'.

For example, Su Zhou, he felt that if he set off without relying on any beacon, the probability of arriving at Houtian was originally 50% possible and 50% impossible. This is a probability, and all the probabilities in it are filled in by himself, anyway, the size of the numbers does not matter, because the Exhaustive Distant Path does not pay attention to probability.

Then the result is obvious.

1—Su Zhou sets off without relying on a beacon and can reach Houtian.

2—Su Zhou sets off without relying on a beacon and cannot reach Houtian.

And Su Zhou chose '1', and he arrived.

Everything is only purely 'logic'.

And the Exhaustive Distant Path directly realizes the possibility of logic—so as long as Su Zhou sets off without relying on a beacon, he can arrive at Houtian, ignoring the infinite processes and possibilities in it.

Things that may happen will happen, this is a probability engine; and things that may happen become 'things that happen', that is an infinite non-probability engine.

In the final analysis, what the Harbinger is pursuing is the 'unknown', He doesn't care about all the possibilities in this known world... so let's fast forward and omit it!

"Too nihilistic, the Great Existences are really sick."

After muttering, Su Zhou thought with a headache: "I didn't think so at the beginning, the stronger I am, the more I can understand the extremes of these Great Existences."

He probably also understood why the Harbinger was locked up. People who fast forward and omit deserve it. People who fast forward will die, of course, some may live forever, that is the original form of the Harbinger and the Transcendent... but how can they fast forward like this?

Moreover, this kind of fast forward is essentially turning a probabilistic event into a definite event, which requires infinite cost, infinite energy and time to promote. Without the essence of infinity, it is impossible to use the Exhaustive Distant Path.

It can't be afforded without a torrent—and without the essence of infinity as the bottom of the box, the infinite non-probability engine is essentially just a good-looking portal. The success rate cannot be 100%, just like the transmission of the Harbinger Space, there is a price and there is a risk.

And this is the meaning of the existence of adventurers and explorers.

[Exhaustive Distant Path] needs infinite power to push, to transform from a probability portal into an infinite non-probability engine. Although the former is already a first-class superpower in this multiverse, it is obviously not comparable to the latter.

And even this kind of superpower is essentially just a 'derivative' of the true power of [Exhaustive Distant Path], the fundamental superpower of pursuing 'the impossible unknown'.

Just like humans discovered that rolling wheels can make forward speed faster on the road to pursuing the truth of the universe, just like humans discovered that atomic fission can be used to make super bombs when pursuing the essence of the microscopic world.

One is the Dao, and the other is a supernatural power.

"And the Harbinger guy, fast-forwarded all the processes of communicating with me!"

At this point, Su Zhou realized why the feeling of communicating with the Harbinger was completely different from that of Destiny, because the Harbinger fast-forwarded all the things needed to communicate with Su Zhou, leaving only the necessary answers and explanations!

In other words, the Harbinger chose the simplest, clearest, and most taken-for-granted communication possibility.

Just like now, the Harbinger said nothing, and Su Zhou has already made his decision.

The young man waved his hand and dispersed the silver road in front of him.

"I won't go for the time being."

Shaking his head, Su Zhou said with a smile: "Since I can go at any time, then I'm not in a hurry."

"The realm of Houtian... seems to be different from other primordial worlds, perhaps it will be an unprecedented journey."

The Harbinger did not ask why, because it was meaningless, it could be omitted, and besides, He also knew why.

And Destiny is even more so.

Therefore, the three wills stared at the Symphony Universe in front of them, as well as the Fifth Symphony Universe.

In the void, only Su Zhou's voice remained.

"Let's go home and have a look first."

Saying so, the young man embarked on the journey home: "There are still things that have not been completed."

So, the power of the Exhaustive Distant Path was activated, and he returned to Earth.

…

Earth, movie theater.

"You're back, A' Zhou?"

Shao Qiming turned his head and looked at Su Zhou, who seemed to be absent-minded for only a moment. He seemed a little surprised: "You have... advanced again."

He didn't even bother to use a question sentence: "What were you busy with?"

"Yes."

And the returned Su Zhou smiled, he raised his head and looked at the screen in front of him that had just finished the power outage.

The young man, who no longer cared about how the movie ended, shrugged: "As for what I went to do..."

"It's just reversing a sad destiny."

"Changing the ending of a movie."
