Chapter 1764: Chapter 1762: The Real Inside Story

Seeing Peter Brown’s baffled expression, Ethan Grey sighed and said, "Our time is also running out, we will soon dissipate into this heaven and earth, but I will tell you about these matters."

Truth be told, even now Peter Brown still felt a sense of disbelief. After such a long struggle, how could it all be an illusion?

"Please sit, let’s talk slowly. Even though we don’t have much time left, there is still time to talk."

Peter Brown then sat down in front of Ethan Grey.

"For a universe to exist, what is the most crucial guarantee of its existence? It is Luck. With Luck, the energy between heaven and earth can be locked in place, and vitality can be preserved. And how is Luck secured? That lies in the emergence of a Saint. A Saint is one who suppresses Luck."

Peter Brown also felt a bit stunned by this revelation, as he had no idea about such matters.

Looking at Peter Brown, Ethan Grey said, "To obtain Luck, everyone has their own cultivation methods. Some people use the power of technology to develop, and when the power of technology reaches a certain height, indeed special technology can be used to collect Luck, thus promoting the evolution of the human body and finally becoming a Saint; some use evil cultivation, some by collecting faith power, some by body refinement, marching on the invincible road; some use cultivation techniques to empower themselves to snatch Luck; there are also those who create their own cultivation arts to vie for it."

Peter Brown had been silent all the time, listening attentively to what Ethan Grey was saying, and now he was somewhat convinced.

"To seize Luck, not only will the strong of this world come forth, but strong individuals from other universes will also come to constantly compete in this heaven and earth. When no Saint emerges, the scramble becomes very fierce as everyone battles ceaselessly."

"From where do we snatch this Luck?" Peter Brown couldn’t help but ask a question.

"Although the illusory world we created is fake, there are still some things we embedded within it. The processes you experienced are in fact real. Your acquisition of Kindness energy, faith power, and such were all part of our assessment of your resistance to these elements. You managed these matters very well, which is one reason why you were able to pass," Ethan Grey explained.

After a pause, Ethan Grey continued, "The snatching of Luck is quite simple. As long as you can suppress this world, the Luck of this world will belong to you, and you can continuously expand outward. As soon as you defeat the Strong Person of that world, when they can no longer suppress that place, its Luck will converge upon you."

"So, it all depends on cultivation after all."

"Yes, it is inevitable that the powerful are revered. However, there are too many powerful beings in this universe, many of whom we cannot confront. The road to Becoming a Saint is indeed fraught with difficulty."

"I haven’t even asked about the Seniors’ situation. With the tremendous power you’ve exhibited, you should have reached the Saint Level, right?" As Peter Brown thought about the clash between the forces of killing intent and vitality, he sighed inwardly, realizing how weak he was in comparison to them.

With a bitter smile, Ethan Grey said, "Actually, neither Madison Burton nor I succeeded. Both of us were defeated so utterly that only a tiny part of our Primordial Spirit remains, incapable of healing."

"That powerful?"

Now Peter Brown was even more shocked; these two incredibly powerful figures were reduced to mere slivers of Primordial Spirits, and yet their Primordial Spirits were so formidable. Did he still have any hope in the Saint Competition?

For the first time, Peter Brown began to doubt his chances of Becoming a Saint.

"Another scenario exists, where merely by the aggregation of Luck from our universe, one can become a Saint. Alternatively, if one is powerful enough, one can snatch the Luck of an entire universe and become a Saint in this world. In this way, there can be two Saints existing in this world.

Peter Brown understood now; evidently, with sufficient Luck, one could achieve sainthood.

"If you all couldn’t win, what role could I possibly play?"

Hearing this, Ethan Grey looked at Peter Brown and said, "Whether you can make it or not, we won’t have the time to see. Ten Thousand Years ago, we waged a Saint Competition, and as a result, the five competitors were all gravely injured. Although everyone spent so much time healing, the Luck was scattered by the fight. The force of Heavenly Retribution has rendered us without any chance of survival. Therefore, all five of us have been nurturing our successors. I don’t know about the others, but Madison Burton bet that whoever’s successor passes the Examination first will have their cultivation and knowledge infused into them by the Two of us. Unfortunately, Madison Burton’s disciple died within the realm of illusion and was eliminated without passing the Assessment. Now that you have grown, we judged that not only did you win, but your potential is also greater. As such, you will receive a great boost from both of us."

"What parts of my experiences were real?" Peter Brown couldn’t help but ask.

With a slight smile, Ethan Grey said, "Seemingly real and seemingly false, to call it fake wouldn’t necessarily be accurate. We merely compressed many developmental scenarios for you to experience. On the Sacred Path, we let you learn and witness the path of Technology, collection of faith, the power of kindness, and you also gained a multitude of knowledge as well as cultivation. All this will greatly benefit your next steps in development."

"What I want to know is, to what time will I return?"

Peter Brown was feeling a sense of frustration, after such a long time, it felt as though he had gone back to square one.

"Now Madison Burton and I will dissipate after infusing our cultivation into your body. Even though your body has undergone Body Refinement, it still cannot fully bear our power. You can only absorb our energy step by step through your own cultivation. The cultivation technique you deduced on your own holds infinite possibilities. There are many contenders for Luck in the entire universe, and some have come a long way. We had hoped to help you for a while longer, but it seems we can no longer hold on. We hope you will take Earth as the center and keep moving towards distant realms. Also, for a safe adaptation environment for you, aside from your parents and Family Members, those women of yours will no longer have any relationships with you; their consciousness has been altered by Madison Burton. Furthermore, some of the events that occurred have already returned to their original state."

Just as Peter Brown was about to speak, he suddenly felt two forces converging upon him.
