Chapter 683: The Unraveling of All Things

In the classroom.Li Xiaocao began to demonstrate to Li An what it meant to awaken dreams using deductive reasoning, and what it meant to awaken them using dialectical reasoning.Both methods shared the same goal—to create a dream world where all parameters perfectly matched the real world.Deductive reasoning involved directly finding the parameters of the real world, constantly imitating, practicing, and correcting errors to achieve perfection.Dialectical reasoning, on the other hand, was an extremely difficult and arduous path.Li Xiaocao wouldn't give Li An the parameters of the real world, but instead gave him a mathematical model for calculating the parameters.This mathematical model was derived from the celestial realm's formula for destiny.Li Xiaocao wrote a dense series of numbers on the blackboard."Assume the equation for the demonic soul is F.""F = {2.76 dou (Sequence 3 Gold Law) + 172 dou (Sequence 1 Divine Law) + X dou (Sequence 0.3 Annihilation Law)} × 222.728 dou of pure destiny +..."The dense numbers looked like tadpoles to Li An.Finally, Li Xiaocao said, "Find X."Looking at his expressionless face, Li An was already sweating profusely.But soon, he understood what the other person meant.He wanted him to use his dreams to derive all the unknowns in this equation.If the final answer was correct, he could create a completely realistic demonic soul in his dream, and the proof would be whether it could resonate with the real world.Then,Li Xiaocao drew a thousand formulas, all of which he had only partially calculated. “This is what you will be doing for the next six months.”Li Xiaocao said calmly, “Every formula is related to the fighting power of humanity, and also to your own strength.”“Everything has its laws.”“The process of solving these one thousand equations will go from slow to fast, because you will gradually understand the underlying laws, thus making the world built by your dreams completely conform to the laws of Heaven.”“In this process, you must make good use of your divinity, touching and deconstructing all matter in the human world, understanding their specific parameters, and then reorganizing them into higher-level substances, constantly repeating this process until you have filled in all the knowledge you lack.”“To completely master the Heavenly Dao Soul and awaken your dreams, you must use your divinity to become an omniscient being regarding matter.”“You must have a thorough understanding of the structure of all matter in this world, without any omissions.”“Six months, half a year, and you still have 50 years left in your slow-time barrier.”“You have 50 years to deconstruct everything in the human world.”“This is unattainable for ordinary people, but for you, who possess the Heavenly Dao Soul, divinity, and dreams, it's just a matter of time.”“Calm down, and persevere through this task, and you will be able to fully understand the Heavenly Dao Soul and awaken your divinity and dreams.”Li An listened attentively.Li Xiaocao suddenly pulled out a huge white cloth, on which there were more than eighty formulas: “These are the formulas that humanity has already calculated, or that your ancestors tricked from the enemy races.”“Use these formulas as a reference to calculate the formulas for all matter.”Then, Li Xiaocao pointed her finger at the void, and the scene of the orphanage basement appeared. In the dark cell, a severed arm was very conspicuous. “This is a spy planted in the human world by the Lu clan. You've already met him. I cut off his hand; it has a lucky charm bracelet from the Wang clan of the Heavenly Realm, which will psychologically suppress whoever wears it.”“Li Wuce, the Demon Ancestor, and I all wear this bracelet. The one I have in my basement is a reference object, used to counteract its effects.”“These things were originally my responsibility, but for the sake of victory at a crucial point in the future, I must leave my original post.”“Now, my soul is sealed deep within Lu Chen's heart. When that crucial point arrives, you must place this Eternal Rune in your hand onto Lu Chen's head, no matter what method you use.”“Then, I will awaken.”“Zhuge Tianming told you that he would sacrifice himself at that critical juncture to achieve victory.”“Now I have left the human world and given you the key to reversing fate.”“Now, you are the one who will decide whether he sacrifices himself.”Although a gentle breeze was blowing in the classroom,Li An's heart felt three parts heavier.But he didn't even frown.He knew that Mr. Tianming had told him that it was the critical point for humanity's counterattack against the Heavenly Realm, tentatively called the Battle of Ascension. More than half of the strong individuals from the Thirteen Kingdoms would take action, blocking humanity's advance outside the Heavenly Gate.Li An looked up and said seriously, "I believe Mr. Tianming will not sacrifice himself on that day."Li Xiaocao nodded, his attitude remaining calm throughout.“Then let's get started with the calculations.”“You can ask me anytime if you encounter anything you don't understand.”“Understood.” Li An nodded, left the classroom, and returned to his mental world.At this moment, a door appeared in the dream world. Opening the door would lead to Mr. Li.He didn't look at the door again, but instead used his engineering mindset, took out the thousand formulas, and began calculating.His hands danced in the dream world, creating various laws and parameters. When he encountered a bottleneck he couldn't overcome, he returned to the human world to find Liu Dahu, who was also doing the same thing as Li An. The laboratory was filled with countless materials. Li An touched upon the divine in his subject matter, deconstructing the material world piece by piece.He didn't have much contact with Li Xiaocao, but he found that his own thoughts seemed to be assimilated by him.To be precise, Li An had seen a great deal of the world and met many powerful people in his life, but if he were to say who he most wanted to learn from, the answer was now clear: Li Xiaocao.This was an unassuming old man who believed that the most powerful force in the world was wisdom.He never talked about any tragic sacrifices, and he was very indifferent to the courage of ordinary people, even scoffing at problems like the trolley problem.Because he believed he would never encounter such problems.He even found these problems inexplicable.Why must you sacrifice some people to save the lives of others?Why can't you save both sides?Is it because of incompetence?I wouldn't encounter such a thing.Li An saw a higher form of pride beneath that unassuming face.He firmly believed that all problems in the world had solutions, and that he could always find the best solution.This was a completely different approach from Mr. Tianming's direct use of heavenly divination techniques.It didn't require sacrificing one's lifespan, but it required an ocean of knowledge and the smartest mind.When he lowered his head in thought, all his enemies would involuntarily feel fear.
