I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2231: 2230: Good and Evil, Dialogue with Chaos

Capítulo 2231: Chapter 2230: Good and Evil, Dialogue with Chaos

Apart from utterly wicked things, exceptionally virtuous matters also exist.

Since antiquity, the clash between good and evil, employing goodness to subdue wickedness, has been a recognized tactic.

After considerable contemplation, Xu Zimei ultimately concluded that concentrating on goodness represents the most viable path forward.

Utilizing evil to combat evil, while a seemingly straightforward approach, is nonetheless a method.

However, pure malevolence primarily serves to instill terror in mortals.

Furthermore, the eighteen levels of the Underworld, in addition to compelling individuals to atone for their past transgressions, possess the capacity to cultivate a flicker of virtue.

As the adage suggests, both good and evil inevitably meet their just deserts.

Yet, Xu Zimei pondered anew: what if unadulterated goodness proves insufficient to quell the darkness?

Could it be feasible to manifest extreme evil and extreme good in tandem?

With this thought taking root, Xu Zimei rose from the ethereal void.

He surveyed the meticulously formed Six Paths of Reincarnation, estimating that its completion was imminent, anticipating its full operation once the rain of causality descended.

Departing from this sanctuary of Way consolidation, he journeyed to the Divine Continent.

Currently, the Divine Continent stands as a truly resplendent constellation, abounding in prosperity and dynamism.

Both technological advancements and the art of cultivation are experiencing unprecedented expansion.

With Xu Zimei as the trailblazer in spiritual cultivation, its influence has already spread far and wide.

Regarding technology, Xu Zimei was privy to Gongsun Muya's detailed explanation; they are now delving into the complex domain of biological genetics.

Should their research culminate in success, the very genes of individuals could be modified, thereby extending lifespans for all.

Naturally, this endeavor presents a formidable challenge.

However, any significant obstacle necessitates pioneers to surmount it incrementally.

For Gongsun Muya, existence would lack its intrinsic meaning without such arduous trials.

Not only is the alteration of genes for life extension a possibility, but even a person's inherent cultivation aptitude could be modified.

If this line of research bears fruit, it is plausible that technology could ultimately eclipse the practice of cultivation.

Nevertheless, cultivation and technology are not inherently antagonistic forces.

These two disciplines, in fact, complement each other, forming an indispensable synergy that propels cultivation toward its zenith.

This world is never wanting for brilliant minds.

Indeed, some individuals have already grasped this fundamental truth.

Consequently, in the present era, numerous factions across the Divine Continent champion the dual pursuit of both spiritual cultivation and technological innovation.

The rationale is that these two pursuits do not present a conflict of interest.

Having ascertained the current trajectory of the Divine Continent's development, Xu Zimei felt a profound sense of contentment.

Everything is advancing with commendable stability.

He then sought out Chaos.

Truth be told, Xu Zimei had not encountered Chaos for a considerable duration.

Once his loyal mount, Chaos now holds the esteemed position of Ancestor of the Monster Race, the veritable Myriad Demons Ancestor of the Divine Continent.

However, Chaos appears to have grown weary of the perpetual conflict with the human race; his current inclinations lean more towards the attainment of a liberated and unfettered state of mind.

Upon beholding Xu Zimei, Chaos was overcome with immense jubilation.

“Boss, do you have any idea what I yearn for most?”

“It’s those moments when I bore you through the most solitary periods.”

“Witnessing your ascent, though fraught with hardship, was undeniably a captivating experience,”

Chaos articulated with a smile.

“Initially, I believed my ultimate aspiration was the resurrection of the Monster Race.

But after navigating numerous experiences and observing the resurgence of the Monster Race within the Divine Continent, my focus shifted, and these matters ceased to hold my primary concern.”

“Each phase of existence presents its own set of objectives,” Xu Zimei remarked with a gentle smile.

“Whether human or demon, beings are subject to change.”

“Yet, Boss, you are distinct,” Chaos interjected earnestly.

“Your ambition, from its inception, has remained unwavering.”

“Your resolve to defy the Heavens is an attribute that can never falter.”

Xu Zimei offered a smile, deliberately steering away from further dwelling on this topic.

Instead, he inquired with a pleasant expression, “I have come today to solicit your assistance with a certain matter.”

“You need only voice it, Boss,” Chaos readily affirmed, nodding in agreement.

“Having resided within the Divine Continent for an extensive period, one could assert that you have been a witness to this world's genesis.

I wish to understand your perspective on the phenomena of extreme wickedness and extreme goodness that pervade this world,” Xu Zimei stated.

This query momentarily perplexed Chaos.

“Boss, you are the architect of creation; surely, no occurrence within this world could elude your awareness, Boss.”

Having voiced this, Chaos then posed a question: “May I inquire as to the purpose behind your need for these elements, Boss?”

“I intend to establish the Endless Hell,” Xu Zimei responded without hesitation.

He continued, “You must have perceived that peculiar rainfall a few days prior.”

Chaos gave a slight nod.

He had, without question, sensed it.

This was attributable to the fact that the precipitation encompassed all beings, leaving no one untouched.

Even he himself had been drawn into the Path of Causality.

Under the transformative influence of the world's altered rules, none were exempt from its embrace.

Although Chaos harbored a degree of curiosity, he did not attach significant importance to these developments, much as he remained largely indifferent to his authority as the Myriad Demons Ancestor.

He recognized that the Divine Continent was currently navigating a uniquely critical juncture in time.

Any substantial transformation occurring within this period was entirely within the realm of normalcy.

Should Xu Zimei ultimately succeed in his challenge against the Heavens, the profound transformations within the Divine Continent would then find their true resolution.

“That torrential downpour of causality ensnared everyone within the Path of Causality, and it is from this event that the Hell of Causality should logically be established,”

Xu Zimei declared.

“I require something capable of suppressing boundless resentments, where the utmost evil and the ultimate good can coexist.”

“It embodies the ferocity of evil, yet also bestows a sliver of life upon all things.”

Upon hearing Xu Zimei's declaration, Chaos inquired, “Does Boss have any particular candidates in mind?”

“Several options exist, but I am contemplating one particular question: is there truly absolute evil in this world?” Xu Zimei posed.

“In the ceaseless flow of life, amidst the intricate dance of mutual benefit.”

“Sometimes, what we label as evil is merely a matter of differing viewpoints.”

“You grasp that when advantages favor you, your adversary invariably suffers considerable losses.”

“So, between the two of us, who truly embodies evil or good?”

“Could an indiscriminate killer be deemed evil?” Chaos pondered.

“Indeed,” Xu Zimei affirmed with a nod.

“Thus, I have three potential subjects; kindly assist me in examining them.”

With a casual gesture from Xu Zimei.

Three distinct scenarios materialized in the expanse between heaven and earth.

The initial scene unfolded within a desolate canyon.

This ravine was largely devoid of life, littered with the remnants of white bones.

Within its confines, a solitary plant managed to thrive.

It was a Man-Eating Demon Flower, a fearsome bloom.

“This demonic flora was once a simple Man-Eating Flower, which, after absorbing the Essence of the Sun and Moon, attained sentience.”

“Subsequently, a colossal conflict erupted in the canyon, resulting in numerous fatalities. The Man-Eating Flower then absorbed the spilled blood, transforming into a blood-red variant.”

“The blood flower, gaining consciousness, subsequently developed desires and began to crave sustenance.

From that point onward, the blood flower commenced preying on humans.

In a span of thirty-eight years, this blood flower has consumed thirty-seven thousand individuals, evolving into a Man-Eating Demon Flower whose appetite for human flesh knows no bounds.

If left unchecked, how many more lives will be extinguished by its monstrous petals?

Can this Man-Eating Flower be categorized as evil?”

“Profoundly evil,” Chaos declared.

“Within its capabilities, it has elevated slaughter to its zenith.

Aware of the world, yet solely focused on annihilation.”

“The second subject is a peculiar creature.”

“Among the myriad of spirits, the Sunflower Demon originates from a frail beginning, yet it possesses the capability to grow by absorbing the essence of sunflowers.”
