Chapter 984: A Mortal Near God
Zhang Daoyi can understand the meaning of the Demon God, if the state of the Gate of Truth and the Star of Destiny is really as the Demon God said, then Zhang Daoyi using the power of the Gate of Truth to deal with the Star of Destiny is completely equivalent to giving a person a million and asking him to cut off one of his arms.
If the door of truth had the wisdom of human beings, this path might really work, because people will weigh the pros and cons, as long as the benefits are sufficient, let alone cutting off an arm, even if it is suicide, it may not be impossible.
But the door of truth is not human, only instinctive will, and in terms of instinct, one's own priority is the highest, even if there are many interests, it is impossible to let the door of truth fight itself, this is a matter of principle!
"The door of truth follows the principle of equivalent exchange, so how much is a human life worth?" Zhang Daoyi continued to ask, since there is a rule of equivalent exchange in the Gate of Truth, it proves that for the Gate of Truth, all together can be measured by value, and there will be no priceless things.
As for the so-called human life is priceless, it is just a definition of human beings themselves, which is a concept that tends to the self, and if we look at it from the perspective of existence outside of human beings, human life is also valuable.
When the demon god heard this, he smiled and said: "Human life is worth a lot of money, and it is worth a lot if it is not worth anything, it mainly depends on who it is!" β
"The same mortal, if he is ignorant, shallow and ignorant, then he can only be worth the same value of the life force in his body, if he is a great man or a wise man, the value is millions, or even tens of millions of people's vitality combined!"
"For example, more than a hundred years ago, that mortal who touched the realm of gods with his mortal body, if he was sacrificed, it would be enough to exchange for a saint!"
The words of the demon god are not exaggerated, and what a great soul is this to approach God in the body of a mortal? Although the sage is strong, his soul may not be as great as that person, there can be a sage in the world every hundreds of years, but that kind of character is difficult to find one in thousands of years.
Zhang Daoyi knew that the mortal who was close to God that the demon god said should be the author of the "Black Scripture", and Zhang Daoyi had studied the "Black Scripture", although the content was not much, but every sentence was expounding the essence of the world!
Zhang Daoyi can be sure that that person is not a martial artist, nor is he an capable person or a magician, because every sentence in the "Black Classic" is to explain the extraordinary world from the perspective of a mortal.
It was a world very different from what the transcendent had seen!
"That person does have this value, I suspect that he even broke through Gaia's barrier with his heart and saw the door of truth!" Zhang Dao nodded and said what he thought.
On the last page of the Black Scripture, there is a concluding sentence like this:
"I don't know what the world thinks of me, but I think I'm just a child playing by the sea, and from time to time I am complacent about discovering a pebble or a shell that is more beautiful than usual, and I don't find the ocean of truth that lies before meβIsaac."
Isaac, the mortal who is close to God in the mouth of the Demon God, when Zhang Daoyi first read the "Black Scripture", he just thought that the ocean of truth that Isaac said meant the infinite unknown, but after listening to the words of the demon god, Zhang Daoyi could already determine that this ocean of truth must refer to the existence of the door of truth!
This is not to blame Zhang Daoyi, before he got to see his true self, he was just an ordinary teenager whose parents died, although the existence of transcendent beings is not a secret in this world, but many things are not accessible to him.
These days, the demon god gave Zhang Dao a little aura, which contains a lot of secrets of the transcendent world, although the demon god is also a heroic spirit, but his own existence is not the door of truth and Gaia can be bound, he does not appear in the real world on weekdays just to cultivate the remnant soul, which does not mean that he knows nothing about the real world.
With Zhang Daoyi's learning ability, he quickly digested the things given by the demon god, and his understanding of the world of the transcendent was no less than that of those who had lived for more than a hundred years.
After all, the demon god himself has lived in this realm for nearly 100,000 years, and it can be called an encyclopedia of human form, and there are few things in this world that he doesn't know!
"Isaac, the best mortal I've ever met!" The demon god also sighed, "At the beginning, I even gave birth to the idea of separating a trace of origin, letting it be transcendent and holy, and asking for a mortal body!" β
"It's a pity that he refused!"
"Also, the soul of God must think differently from mortals, I have my way, he has his way, although my level is countless higher than his, but in the way is equal!"
When Zhang Dao heard this, he was a little curious, what kind of choice did Isaac make in the end, the transcendent sainthood that the demon god said was naturally a step to the heavens and become a saint.
Since Isaac refused, he must have a better choice.
Originally, Zhang Daoyi also wanted to ask Isaac if he had become a heroic spirit, knowing that many heroic spirits were achieved by great mortals or transcendents through the power of the Gate of Truth.
Although the Heroic Spirit belongs to Gaia, its true source is the transcendent foundation, the Gate of Truth!
But now, hearing what the demon god said, Zhang Daoyi knew that since Isaac had refused to become a saint, he would definitely not choose to become a heroic spirit, and if it was really calculated, the personality of the heroic spirit was completely inferior to that of a saint.
Zhang Daoyi asked, "What choice did Isaac make in the end?" β
The demon god sighed: "He said he wanted to pursue the truth, he said he had never been so close to the truth, he said he was going to turn himself into the truth!" β
"And he died, and he sacrificed all that he had to the gate of truth, and he was brought into the truth as he wished, and became a part of the truth!"
"If he doesn't go crazy, he can't live, he can achieve such an achievement as a mortal, this choice is normal!"
Zhang Daoyi's palm let go of the teacup, stretched out his hand, and gently wrote the word "Dao" with his fingers on the table.
The table is made of nanmu wood, and then soaked in tung oil, which makes the table very hard, and even if it is cut with a knife, it can only cut a shallow mark.
This is an ancient method, and in ancient times, this method was also used in warfare, and there was a type of army called rattan armor, and the armor worn was also soaked in a similar way.
The rattan armor is lightweight, invulnerable after being soaked, and has strong combat ability!
Of course, with Zhang Daoyi's current cultivation, unless it is a substance that does not belong to the world, otherwise, whether it is steel or tofu, it is not much different for Zhang Daoyi.
The moment the word "Dao" appeared, a small storm suddenly set off between heaven and earth, Zhang Dao saw this, smiled slightly, and directly threw the teacup in his hand onto the word "Dao" that was blooming.
