Chapter 653: Chapter 43 Chen Tianwen’s Deduction

Seeing the schadenfreude on Chen Tianwen’s face, it was obvious he had harbored a grudge against the Pantheon for a long time.

"Does Brother Chen know this Divine Calculation Sky Demon?"

"Of course, I know him. There are only so few people in the Pantheon, we’re all quite familiar with each other. Let me guess, does this Divine Calculation Sky Demon have a lackey with him?"

Xiao Jie nodded, indeed that was the case. "But who that person is, I’m not sure. I was too far away at the time and couldn’t see clearly. However, from beginning to end, only two people from the Pantheon came. Why not gather more people?"

Chen Tianwen explained: "The internal competition within the Pantheon is very fierce, the formal members are reluctant to collaborate easily. Moreover, each member of the Pantheon thinks very highly of themselves, preferring to scheme and play chess, aiming to gamble with little and manipulate others with their own power. Therefore, asking for help is not something they would easily do.

However, normally each formal member will recruit one to three followers who are both apprentices and helpers; they can also be used as sacrificial pawns when necessary.

These followers often receive quite a few resources.

Yet followers will always just be followers. The formal members of the Pantheon only care about their own growth, all for the sake of competition."

"Competition? Is it for competing for resources?"

"No." Chen Tianwen shook his head, "What they are competing for is the recognition of the Hall Master."

Xiao Jie was curious: "The recognition of the Hall Master? And what are the benefits if one gets recognized? By the way, who exactly is the Hall Master of the Pantheon? Can you talk about it?"

Chen Tianwen did not answer immediately, but instead, he showed a solemn expression and hesitated for a while before speaking in a low voice, "Do you know that I have been a part of the Pantheon for nearly three years, yet have never seen the Hall Master in person? I have only seen a few projections of his avatar. But even just these avatars possess strength that could crush anyone within the Pantheon."

Xiao Jie was startled. "That strong?"

Chen Tianwen nodded, "That strong. There has always been a rumor within the Pantheon that the Hall Master himself has already achieved Ascension to Immortality and gone to other worlds, that’s why he can only communicate with us through his avatar.

The Hall Master neither denies nor confirms this, but he has promised to select one or two individuals from among us to accompany him to the other side, to ascend to other worlds and witness the unimaginable scenery and landscapes."

What he meant by that, the Hall Master never explained, but everyone inside the guild believes it must be referring to becoming an immortal.

This is the opportunity everyone is fighting for, as long as one can get the recognition of the Hall Master, one might be able to ascend to immortality.

However, so far no one has been able to do this, so I think that it might just be a pie in the sky."

It might not necessarily be just a pie in the sky though... Xiao Jie thought to himself.

At least he now held a Magic Skill in his hands that pertained to ascending to immortality. This game has been operating for three years; perhaps there are others who have ascended before him.

If the Hall Master of the Pantheon is that strong, perhaps he really is an immortal.

Only, would he help others become immortals? It seems a bit far-fetched.

"Does Brother Tianwen also wish for immortality?"

Chen Tianwen sighed: "Of course I do. Who in this world wouldn’t want extraordinary Strength, to truly be free? Not constrained by anything, able to do anything they wish...

However, rather than seek the favor of some powerful individual, I would prefer to find my own way. That’s why I want to know what exactly is written on that Stele.

Since it is a Stele left by an Immortal, it might contain very important information. If it’s convenient, I would appreciate it if Xiao could tell me."

Xiao Jie smiled, "There’s nothing inconvenient about it. There are indeed quite a few treasures left behind, but as for information related to becoming an immortal, there’s only one piece of the Stele."

Xiao Jie recounted the contents left behind on the Stele by the Wuming Taoist.

After speaking, he casually took out his phone and directly sent a photo of the Stele to Chen Tianwen.

Chen Tianwen treated it like a treasure, carefully scrutinizing the phone.

Xiao Jie didn’t interrupt, quietly drinking tea and waiting; he was quite interested to hear what Chen Tianwen would analyze.

An Ran listened to the conversation between the two with quite an interest as well.

"Say, Master Chen, do you really think this game can lead to immortality?"

"It most certainly can." While looking at his phone, Chen Tianwen answered decisively.

"Oh, why so certain?"

"This is based on my calculations from the Nameless Dao Scripture Human Dao Chapter."

"That Taoist Scripture can deduce such things?"

"Heh, naturally it can."

"What exactly does this Human Dao Chapter say?" An Ran could not help but ask.

"The content is extensive, but it boils down to four sentences."

1, everything in this world is driven by humans.

2, human behavior patterns are determined by human nature.

3, human nature is predictable.

4, so as long as one understands human nature, one can see into the human heart, predict the future, and even deduce the Great Dao; the so-called human path is the underlying logic of human society, and no one can escape this rule.

An Ran seemed to understand but also didn’t quite get it, "So what’s the use of this thing?"

Chen Tianwen and Xiao Jie looked at each other, both feeling somewhat at a loss for words.

Yet Xiao Jie felt that Chen Tianwen might be assuming too much; the human heart is complex and fickle, it’s not that easy to predict.

However, Chen Tianwen seemed very confident in his own understanding.

"Have you ever thought about what the purpose of this game is?

Since everything is determined by human nature, the purpose of this game can likewise be deduced. The person who created the game obviously didn’t do it merely for entertainment; they must have had some sort of purpose for creating this game."
