Chapter 2326: Another Multiple Choice Question

The Disc of Life and Death was blessed with the nomological laws of tens of thousands of worlds. However, Chen Chen’s Spotless Realm could thoroughly sever the Disc of Life and Death’s connection with these worlds. In fact, this was the fundamental basis that allowed Cyril to obliterate the Disc of Life and Death with his sword.

After defeating the fifth tribulation, it seemed as if the Heavenly Dao were loosening up once again. The progress of crushing the heavens advanced again, with Cyril’s black and white Heaven Crushing Spear piercing even further into the sky.

The pitch-black and profound fractures in the sky started to spread into a web of smaller fractures. Once these fractures reached a certain limit, the sky and the Heavenly Dao would instantly shatter like a sheet of brittle glass!

An eternally spinning Formation of Life and Death materialized behind Chen Chen, and he raised his hand to push a black seal that was filled with death and desolation toward the sky. At this moment, winds were frozen, and all matter fell silent.

Heaven Crushing Technique—Heavenly Dao Severing Reincarnation!

The black seal rapidly grew in size as it imprinted into the sky, causing the Heavenly Dao to shudder violently as the path to reincarnation was severed. This black seal had thoroughly sealed all possibilities of the Heavenly Dao!

Chen Chen’s attack penetrated deep into the Heavenly Dao.

The Heavenly Dao’s control over reincarnation was sealed by Chen Chen’s palm, and its existence was also being slowly obliterated by his paramount Heaven Crushing Techniques…

At this moment, the heavens suddenly welcomed another sudden change.

A faceless person who was holding a heavenly scale slowly materialized in the sky.

This person was dressed in a neat white robe that was decorated with black clouds, and everything about their existence adhered to an absolute notion of balance, from the style of their hair to the texture of their clothes.

This faceless person measured one hundred feet in height, and the heavenly scale in their hand had a white dish on each end. There was a person standing on the left dish, and there was similarly a person standing on the right dish.

However, everyone’s expression changed drastically when they discovered that it was actually Xue Yan, the Second Heavenly Disciple Attendant, who was standing on the left dish!

“It can’t be, right? Is… is she really Xue Yan?”

“Ah! Xue Yan has genuinely disappeared!”

“How has she suddenly appeared there?”

The members of the Heaven Crushing Sect were all stunned to discover that Xue Yan, who had been standing alongside them just then, had suddenly disappeared at some unknown time, only to reappear on the heavenly scale in the faceless person’s hand.

Not only them, but even Xue Yan herself was completely bewildered. Only after a few seconds did she finally come to her senses. She immediately transformed into a wisp of ice-cold air, attempting to escape from the scale. However, she was instantly blocked by an invisible barrier.

“Xue Yan…” Chen Chen murmured. He shuddered as he gazed at the woman on the scale.

Cyril faltered for a moment before asking, “How… in the world did this happen?”

This ability had already transcended the domain of teleportation. Instead, it seemed more like an absolute will and decision of an absolute ruler. One would appear wherever this ruler desired.

There was no technique, and there was no method. Everything was simply decided by the ruler’s will.

This was the will of the heavens!

In fact, the trapped Xue Yan even unleashed the paramount Heaven Crushing Techniques to attack the invisible barrier of the scale. However, this was still completely ineffective.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the scale.

An old lady with no cultivation base whatsoever slowly appeared.

She was dazed at first, yet she was immediately overcome by terror upon coming to her senses, causing her to collapse into a heap.

“Ah… Save me! Someone, save me! Where is this? Who are you people? Why did you capture me?!”

She screamed for help, unleashing the boundless terror in her mind.

It was evident that this old lady was an ordinary mortal from the Kingdom of the Nine States who was specially brought over by the faceless person.

The two sides of the scale were weighed down by people of completely different importance.

However, there was a sanguine red blade above both Xue Yan and the old woman. These were blades that were radiating with an intense aura of death…

The faceless person turned around to look at Chen Chen.

“Of the two people, who is more important in your mind?

“If the two people are facing death, with only one of them able to survive, who would you pick to survive?”

The faceless person’s voice was distant and ethereal as it crept into Chen Chen’s mind.

Chen Chen couldn’t help but shudder upon hearing this.

The previous Heavenly Tribulation had been a choice between life and death for him and Cyril. Now, however, it was a choice between life and death for Xue Yan and a mortal old woman?

From an outsider’s point of view, this multiple choice question was almost identical to the previous one. In fact, it was even easier to answer. There was no need to consider at all, and it was obvious that he should pick Xue Yan.

However, this multiple choice question was, in fact, far more difficult.

The faceless person was interrogating Chen Chen’s innermost thoughts.

What was the definition of life? What was the definition of justice?

Upon becoming Heaven, could he treat Xue Yan and the old woman with fairness and justice? Could he view both of them as beings who were completely unrelated to him?

If even the heavens lost their sense of fairness and justice, viewing everything through the colored lenses of subjectiveness, then how could the world maintain a state of equilibrium and peace? Furthermore, what right would he have to become Heaven?

This was a multiple-choice question. Fundamentally speaking, however, this wasn’t a multiple-choice question.

In fact, the faceless person didn’t need Chen Chen to answer this question at all. As long as Chen Chen remained human, the answer to this question would be obvious.

This was an interrogation of his Dao Heart, and this was an interrogation that was more brutal than any attack.

The faceless person simply wanted to attack Chen Chen’s Dao Heart.

Could Cyril and Chen Chen defeat this tribulation using brute strength as they had before? No, they couldn’t. This was because Xue Yan was in the faceless person’s hands. If they decided to attack, they definitely wouldn’t be able to save Xue Yan in time.

Chen Chen could only make a decision, and he could only save Xue Yan through this decision. However, once he made this decision, his Dao Heart would inevitably be affected. Thus, this was a blatant and unavoidable attack.

Right at this moment, however, Xue Yan suddenly lunged toward the sanguine red blade without regard for anything else.

“Xue Yan!”

“Lady Xue Yan!”

The members of the Heaven Crushing Sect all exclaimed in astonishment.

Xue Yan wanted to use her death to help Chen Chen resolve his dilemma!

Chen Chen’s mind shuddered, and a cold glint instantly burst forth from his hands!

At this moment, the lunging Xue Yan was suddenly stopped by an invisible power. She was completely unable to harm herself.

“Don’t be rash. Only the ‘Heavenly Disciple’ has the right to decide your fates,” the faceless person said. There was no hint of emotion in their voice.

The faceless person casually stripped Xue Yan of her right to choose her own fate.

This person could grant Xue Yan life, so they could naturally grant her death as well.

Thereupon, all of the pressure was immediately returned to Chen Chen’s shoulders again.

Chen Chen took a deep breath as he looked at the red-eyed Xue Yan and the old woman who had been mysteriously dragged over here and was screaming in despair.

He pointed at Xue Yan and said, “I… want her to live.”

Everyone shuddered upon hearing this.

“Oh?” the faceless person asked in a mocking voice. “Why her? Is it because of love? Is she more important in your mind?

“So, you’re willing to indirectly kill this old woman in order to save her?”

Chen Chen ruminated over his emotions, and he understood that he wasn’t able to transcend the barrier of life and death, nor was he able to transcend the barrier of emotions. A smile spread across his face, and he said, “Who said… that the heavens don’t have emotion?”

The faceless person shook their head and said, “Then you don’t have the right to become the heavens. Moreover, you can’t succeed in becoming the heavens…”

On the scale, the restrictions around Xue Yan started to gradually disappear.

At the same time, however, a sanguine red blade started to plunge down toward the mortal old woman!
