Chapter 665: The End of Evolution is Extinction
Tang San said in a deep voice, "The end of evolution is extinction. When the universe evolves to its extreme, it will collapse unto itself. It will once more turn into that mote of chaos from whence it once started, and everything will start anew."
The White Tiger Demon Emperor drew a sharp breath. Today's conversation with Tang San had given him new insights into many things, especially his understanding of the plane and a clearer comprehension of higher levels.@@@@
"Is there any way to solve the problem of plane evolution?" the White Tiger Demon Emperor asked.
Tang San replied, "There are ways, though it would be difficult. If there was an already existing powerful divine realm to act as a guide, leading and pushing this plane's evolution, then the chances of success would be much higher. Moreover, once successful, the two divine realms would resonate in harmony, supporting each other, potentially reaching a state where even the laws of the universe cannot interfere. It would result in such a stable plane that it might well be considered eternal to those like us. The evolution of the universe is extremely slow; it could take billions of years, maybe tens of billions, before a full collapse might occur."
"Such grandeur! I truly wish I could see the greater universe," the White Tiger Demon Emperor said wistfully.
"Falan Planet's plane is very restrictive. Otherwise, with Your Majesty's strength, you could have long since broken free of the planet's constraints to see the world outside."
The White Tiger Demon Emperor was taken aback. "I could?"
Tang San nodded. "If the plane's suppression were reduced, it would be possible. But as things stand, it's difficult. This is also the reason Falan Planet is so powerful. If I'm not mistaken, it has been absorbing energy from the universe to strengthen itself at the cost of not attempting to become a divine realm. But as it grows stronger, the likelihood of it becoming a divine realm decreases. And with that... there comes a dilemma. If it attempts to become a divine realm and fails, then it will collapse. But if it doesn’t, the energy it holds will exceed the limits of what a normal plane can hold, and it will also collapse. That's why I believe there will be opportunities in the future. One day, the plane will have to take a risk for its own survival."
"You keep talking about the plane taking risks and whatnot. Do you think the plane is actually conscious?"
"It's hard to say, but even if it isn't conscious, it should at least have some form of instinct."
"I see. In any case, now that you have this so-called transcendent bloodline, if you successfully undergo your tribulation and achieve godhood in the future, do you think you might be able to break through the plane's limitations?"
Tang San thought for a moment, then shook his head. "It's hard to say right now. Everything will depend on whether I successfully undergo the tribulation."
"A space about four times the size of this room should be enough, as long as it's secure."
"The top floor of the hotel is reserved for myself. I occasionally stay there. You can set it up there, but I want to observe the entire setup process."
"Alright," Tang San agreed without hesitation.
The White Tiger Demon Emperor looked at Tang San with a slightly strange expression. He couldn't quite understand why this young man trusted him so much. Was it just because he was Mei Gongzi's grandfather?
The more he observed Tang San, the more curious he became. To him, Tang San seemed like a very straightforward young man, which made the White Tiger Demon Emperor develop a certain fondness for him.
Naturally, Tang San wasn't going to tell him that his trust was based on two factors, neither of which had anything to do with his blood relationship with Mei Gongzi.
One reason was that Tang San could see the White Tiger Demon Emperor's fortune. The Celestial Fox Demon Emperor's fortune was hidden and Tang San had absolutely no intention of trying to probe him, but among the others, this one had the strongest fortune. In fact, his fortune far surpassed that of other Emperors. This indicated that he would likely have a very good and very long life. Tang San was willing to bet on this fortune.
And speaking of fortune, the other reason was profit, plain and simple. Tang San hadn't planned on persuading the White Tiger Demon Emperor through familial ties, but rather through mutual benefits. As long as the Emperor believed that Tang San could bring him enough profit, why would he harm him? Especially since these benefits could be exclusive. As an Emperor, he would certainly want to advance further and leave the others in the dust.
Of course, there were other reasons as well. Through their previous interactions, Tang San had mostly confirmed his judgment. As long as he still had value, the White Tiger Demon Emperor wouldn't harm them. Additionally, looking at it from a familial perspective, the fact that the White Tiger Demon Emperor had openly told them that success in the evaluation was impossible and advised Mei Gongzi on how to survive showed that he genuinely cared for his family—more than Tang San had originally expected. It meant that he truly had Su Qin and Mei Gongzi in his heart, and this vastly increased his evaluation in Tang San's eyes.
Moreover, if Tang San were to risk everything right now, he might even be able to kill an Emperor. He knew that the White Tiger Demon Emperor had sensed something, and he was fairly certain that the man wouldn't act against them anyway.
Led by the White Tiger Demon Emperor, they went to the top floor of the White Tiger Hotel. And here, Tang San and Mei Gongzi finally discovered what true luxury was.
Though the White Tiger Demon Emperor had called it "top floor," it was more like a smaller building on top of the large hotel. It was smaller in surface than the floors below, but still very large, around two thousand square meters. There were actually two floors, with a large open space in the middle. The first floor had seven-meter-tall crystal glass windows on all four sides; not only was it very well illuminated, but from within, they could get a near-perfect view of the Ancestral Court.
There was also a rooftop garden next to it, around five hundred square meters in size. The ground sparkled with rare gemstones, the vegetation was luxuriant, and the spiritual energy around it was so rich that it felt almost viscous. As Tang San and Mei Gongzi walked out to the garden, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged; the world around them felt somewhat surreal, and at the same time, a feeling of indescribable comfort overcame them. Tang San was sure that cultivating here would be many times more efficient than cultivating outside.
