Chapter 37: The Concept of Quantum Life! Immersed in Wild Thoughts!

Li Cheng instinctively responded upon hearing the words:

“There are roughly a hundred members in the Renyan Gang. Their leader has lived for over twenty years, attacking thousands of people. I estimate he might possess the strength of a Morning Star—very dangerous…”

Before he could finish speaking, Li Cheng abruptly stopped, wishing he could slap himself. The person before him was very likely a Radiant Moon-level existence. In front of such a being, a Morning Star was as insignificant as an ant. To say that a Morning Star was dangerous in this context was akin to insulting the other party.

The man’s question was clearly not about the number of Renyan Gang members but rather about how many Awakened individuals knew of this treasure and whether any peers of his calibre had been drawn by the news.

Li Cheng adjusted his posture and spoke earnestly:

“The earlier details were unnecessary. This information has indeed spread, but only to a few neighbouring provinces. Moreover, most remain sceptical, treating it as mere hearsay. Awakened individuals like myself who ventured here personally are few, and those of your calibre are practically non-existent.”

Calibre? What calibre? Aren’t we both Morning Stars? I only just learned about Radiant Moon-level myself. Lu Yu couldn’t help but silently mock as an awkward expression crossed his face beneath the mask. The man before him clearly mistook him for a Radiant Moon-level expert. In truth, he had not even reached the Morning Star stage. By the official cultivation system, he was merely an ordinary person with an abnormally high energy content.

But Lu Yu couldn’t reveal this, as it involved his Monster Editor System, his most significant trump card. Who could guarantee that this person, faced with such an extraordinary fortune, wouldn’t succumb to greed?

The human heart is unpredictable. While Li Cheng currently displayed utmost respect, it was solely because he assumed Lu Yu was a Radiant Moon-level powerhouse. If the truth were known, Li Cheng might very well turn hostile. In such proximity, even the Balloon of Terror couldn’t intervene in time. Moreover, the Void Shadow Spider, another Morning Star-level entity, was still in its egg stage and entirely useless.

The fury of a warrior could spill blood within five steps. And this wasn’t just any warrior but a true Morning Star powerhouse whose unknown techniques could be lethal. Without prior combat experience, Lu Yu couldn’t be certain the Balloon of Terror could overpower him.

Ultimately, Lu Yu sighed at his limited understanding of the Awakened world. For his safety, he decided to maintain his facade, replying softly:

“I understand.”

Seeing this mysterious powerhouse accept his overtures, Li Cheng felt relieved, though he quickly let out a sigh:

“Alas, my spiritual essence has been severely damaged. I originally hoped to exchange this dragon egg for treasures rich in essence to guide my breakthrough. Yet now, the treasure is beyond my reach, and I’m left without direction. I’m already two hundred years old. I wonder if I’ll ever find a new path…”

The treasure had been his chance, but Lu Yu’s arrival had shattered that hope. Although his lament was softly spoken, it carried deep emotion, causing Xu Xiaoqing and Ma Yang to sigh as well.

Behind Ghost Bear, the burly man in the geisha mask said:

“Master will surely find a breakthrough opportunity. Even if not, Ghost Bear will scour the earth for longevity treasures to extend your life!”

But Li Cheng merely shook his head with a bitter smile:

“Forget it. It’s too difficult. Low-level longevity treasures are useless to me, and high-level ones are guarded by fearsome beasts. Acquiring them is nearly impossible. In my current state, I’ve lost all confidence…”

Li Cheng’s words weighed heavily on the atmosphere. Even Lu Yu couldn’t ignore the sense of despair, a yearning for life and the future that tugged at his heart.

No wonder ancient cultivators pursued enlightenment with such fervour, even at the cost of their lives. Such resolve was awe-inspiring. However, Lu Yu frowned at Li Cheng’s negativity. Regardless of the difficulty, one should never lose hope. Even if the guardian beast was mighty, why not devise weapons to destroy it? Drop a few hundred tonnes of nuclear bombs and see if it survives!

If individual power fell short, why not turn to technological strength? The world’s technology wasn’t lacking. Why not explore mechanical immortality or quantum transcendence? Success in such endeavours might forge a new path, transforming one into a quantum being capable of striking across infinite dimensions and processing billions of computations in an instant.

Wouldn’t following a technological route or becoming a quantum life form be empowering? The issue wasn’t difficulty but having the determination to overcome it. As long as one had ambition and effort, failure would at least mean trying.

With this in mind, Lu Yu glanced at Li Cheng. Since the latter had provided valuable information, Lu Yu decided to offer some guidance. In a deliberately profound tone, he said:

“Mutual generation of existence and non-existence; mutual formation of difficulty and ease.”

This phrase, from Chapter Two of the Tao Te Ching, conveys that existence and non-existence are interdependent, as are difficulty and ease. At its core, it implies that all things have solutions and that every problem holds its counterpart. Shifting perspectives often yields new answers.

It was an apt teaching for reinvigorating this disheartened… elder.

Since Li Cheng had shared so much, Lu Yu naturally reciprocated by inspiring positivity.

Li Cheng froze as if struck by lightning, muttering repeatedly:

“Mutual generation of existence and non-existence; mutual formation of difficulty and ease…”

His murmurs grew louder and faster until he spiralled into a frenzy. Immense energy surged from him, like waves radiating in all directions, creating a terrifying gale.

Ghost Bear, alarmed, glared at Lu Yu with bloodshot eyes and roared:

“What have you done to my master?”

Underneath his mask, Lu Yu was dumbfounded. What did I do? I just tried to console him!

Maintaining his persona, Lu Yu cast a cold glance at Ghost Bear. The icy gaze silenced him immediately.

“Difficulty… ease… existence… non-existence… yin and yang… cyclic rotation… I understand… I comprehend… I’ve finally understood… I’ve achieved enlightenment!”

Li Cheng shouted, leaving Lu Yu bewildered.
