Chapter 1374 - Chapter 1374 Chapter 421 How can you be sure that the world

Chapter 1374: Chapter 421: How can you be sure that the world you live in is real?_3 Chapter 1374: Chapter 421: How can you be sure that the world you live in is real?_3 The Demon God Secret Skill isn’t about consistently increasing proficiency; it plateaued at certain thresholds, where without significant enlightenment, it was hard to progress further.

Previously, I, Leonard Churchill “I Am the World”, clearly fell into the bottleneck of “domain of cognition.”

Just a moment ago, Leonard discovered that the troubling view suddenly cleared up.

It was like a frog leaping out of a deep well and seeing a new world.

Although he still hadn’t figured out the troubles in his heart, his thoughts, akin to sunlight, hadn’t reached the edges of the universe. Yet, given enough time, it seemed one day he might glimpse the full picture of the universe.

It was just a possibility, but it gradually focused Leonard’s wandering pupils.

The purpose of life is the process of glimpsing the truths of the universe!

…

Before his eyes, colors slowly appeared out of darkness.

Leonard saw a cloaked figure wearing a mask.

At that moment, his soul seemed to have returned to his body.

Only then did his thoughts reconnect.

Oh,

So I am here.

In the Alternate Dimension.

Leonard felt as if he had escaped from a quagmire, feeling suddenly lighter.

And quite clearly, he felt a kind of… ascension on a spiritual level!

At first, he wasn’t sure what this feeling was, but the next instant, he realized, this was… divine power!

The transformation on a soul level, humanity being able to wield the power of gods, also carried divine might.

He had touched the threshold of divine power!

Looking at his panel again, “I Am the World” had also broken through the realm that had long been stagnant, reaching Lv4!

Leonard immediately understood what had happened and respectfully said to the masked man before him, “Thank you for your guidance, senior!”

How could he not understand at this moment that the person before him had realized he was stuck at a Sixth Tier bottleneck and had intentionally given him a hint.

Although a direct solution could have been provided just now, a “leading” method was used instead,

An enlightening pour of realization.

With the guidance of a top expert, combined with Leonard’s own enlightenment, understanding suddenly dawned on him.

At the same time, Leonard was greatly shocked, encountering such a high-level expert for the first time.

If they were enemies, the opponent could kill him as easily as flipping his hand.

Pursuer of Light Faro looked at Leonard, smiled faintly without denying, and admired, “Your enlightenment is astonishing.”

The hint was indeed intentional.

An unguarded hint could lead to unexpected effects.

Now, looking at it, the effect was indeed good.

After a pause, he also revealed the reason: “Since you have been able to learn the Demon God Secret Skill ‘I Am the World’ without taking any detours, it means that you have a good relationship with the generation of Pursuers of Light three thousand years later. But clearly, some heritage is missing. I don’t have much time left… Some things I tell you are also intended to be conveyed through you to the inheritors of my lineage.”

Leonard nodded.

This scene seemed familiar; Leonard Churchill remembered that Mushroom Head Jerry had also posed a similar question once, which appeared to be a tradition among the Pursuers of Light.

The other party clearly noticed that the Demon God Secret Skill he had learned was flawed and had inevitably deduced that there was a problem with the succession of its legacy.

From the phrase “I don’t have much time left,” he also discerned some other implications.

A great battle was imminent, and this Pursuer of Light, feared to have played a significant role in the cataclysm at Taron.

…

“You needn’t dwell on the question I asked earlier.”

At this, Pursuer of Light Faro, seeing the confusion that still lingered in Leonard’s eyes, smiled and said, “You cannot prove the reality of the world you are in. Since you are in this world, your perception is trapped here. Even at my current level, the unknown still covers my head… However, you should have touched on the threshold of ‘Divine Power,’ having the qualification to seek the truth of the world. Some paths must be walked alone for profound understanding. I think you wouldn’t want me to give you the answer directly… ”

Leonard seemed to understand yet did not comprehend.

But he felt it was so.

At this, Pursuer of Light Faro finally responded to the initial question, “The reason I recognize the concept of ‘existing in the Alternate Dimension’ is because I had ‘foreseen’ this situation. No matter if you are time traveling or in the Alternate Dimension, seeing ‘me’, it is I who possess the awareness at this moment. My cognition allows me to accept and understand your existence before me in any form. That means, no matter how we meet, my cognition ensures that I say these words to you. This is something even the will of Alternate Dimension cannot block… because regardless of whether my subjective consciousness thinks of it, I will inevitably deduce it.”

“…”

As Leonard listened, he fell deep into thought.

He truly understood, as if Non-Player Characters had pre-set dialogues.

Only waiting for certain keywords to trigger, they would automatically proceed.

It wasn’t controlled by subjective consciousness but was like a physical law of the universe, invisible to the unknowing, yet it existed all along.

To deny it, one would have to refute the entire universe.

After a pause, Faro looked at Leonard and added, “Others might find my words hard to understand. But since you understand ‘I am the World,’ you should be able to grasp it. From the level of logical deduction, my ‘allowing all possibilities to occur’ leads me to ‘see everything.’ It’s not about being blinded by my own cognition, only seeing a limited world that my perception allows.”

“…”

Upon hearing this, Leonard’s pupils flashed with a sudden chill.

At that moment, he felt like he had grasped something.

Although he did not understand it, he knew it was extremely significant!

He had heard Noah Wright talk about it being a high realm within ‘I am the World’–deducing beyond cognition!

Even Mushroom Head Jerry was exploring this advanced domain.

…

Pursuer of Light Faro had said enough.

If this was still not understood, further explanation would be pointless.

Leonard knew that the words of this evening needed a long and profound pondering by a formidable contemplator of the future.

Yet, he felt a sense of regret.

After all, this was the Alternate Dimension.

The mighty figure before him had already fallen in the rivers of history.

As if seeing through all of Leonard’s thoughts, Faro smiled and said, “I actually feel very fortunate to have such an opportunity to meet a young friend like you. This way, I can know what exactly happened three thousand years later… Many of my arrangements and conjectures can see their results. Regardless of the form my consciousness takes, I would be very pleased to see such outcomes. It’s like following a story I like; seeing its conclusion is a very fulfilling thing in life… ”

He said these words in a calm tone.

Yet in Leonard’s heart, the ripples continued for a long time.
