"Who are you?"
Zhuo Wen asked in a deep voice as he looked at the old man fishing by the stream. His eyes revealed a look of vigilance.
The old man smiled faintly and said, "You can call me Hong Meng!
At the same time, I am also the most loyal servant of the Primordial Hong Meng Tree. I was born with the Primordial Hong Meng Tree the moment it was born! "
"For countless years, I have been taking care of the Primordial Hong Meng Tree. Otherwise, the fruits of the Primordial Hong Meng Tree wouldn't have grown so well!"
"Hong Meng?" Zhuowen's pupils shrank as he muttered to himself.
He didn't expect that the old man in front of him was born with the Primordial Hong Meng Tree. Wouldn't that mean that this old man was on par with the Primordial Hong Meng Tree?
Those were truly great existences!
"Senior!
You … "
Before Zhuowen could finish, Hong Meng interrupted, "I know what you want to say. You want me to save the Primordial Star System and the Primordial Star System, and you think that I am on the same level as the Primordial Hong Meng Tree, right?"
Zhuowen was stunned for a moment before he nodded. He was quite shocked. It seemed that this old man could see through his heart.
"I am just an ordinary old man with a long lifespan!
The only reason I am still alive is because of the Primordial Hong Meng Tree. I can only interfere with the things inside the Primordial Hong Meng Tree. As for the things outside, I can't interfere at all! "
Hong Meng glanced at Zhuowen indifferently and put away the fishing rod. Zhuowen realized that the fishing line at the end of the fishing rod had no hook. It was empty.
"Then, you deliberately released the Demon Infant?" Zhuowen asked with a gloomy expression.
Hong Meng raised his head and looked straight at Zhuowen. He said seriously, "Yes, I did it!"
"Why?" Zhuowen asked in a low voice.
"The Demon Infant was nurtured by the Primordial Hong Meng Tree for countless years. Its purpose was to bring you, someone who has been acknowledged by the Primordial Hong Meng Tree, into the river of time in the Primordial Hong Meng Tree's space.
You asked me why, and I can only say that everything is predestined! "Hong Meng said indifferently.
Zhuowen said excitedly, "Destiny?
I think this is just an excuse you came up with. Do you know how many lives have been lost because of your actions? "
Hong Meng sighed softly, "Of course I know. That's why I appeared in front of you. I won't fight back. You can kill me immediately. It can be considered as me forgiving you for this."
"But you still have a mission. Only you have the opportunity to defeat the Heavenly Demon King. As for the other two chosen ones, they are just a cover to buy time for you!"
Zhuowen's brows were tightly knitted together. He was gradually unable to understand what Hong Meng was saying.
"I need a reason, a reason that can convince me!" Zhuowen said in a deep voice.
Hong Meng looked at Zhuowen, who had regained his composure, and nodded inwardly. With a wave of his sleeve, the door to the wooden hut automatically opened.
"Come in for a chat!"
Hong Meng smiled and took the lead to enter the wooden house. Zhuowen followed closely behind.
Inside the wooden house, the decorations were rather simple. There was only a wooden table, two wooden stools, and a rather shabby wooden bed.
"Have a seat!"
Hong Meng called out to Zhuowen and brewed two cups of tea, placing them in front of Zhuowen and himself.
Zhuowen looked deeply at Hong Meng and said indifferently, "You should tell me the reason why you did that!"
Hong Meng took a sip of tea and said in a rather heavy tone, "When you first entered the Primordial Hong Meng Tree's space, the words you heard have actually explained the reason why I did what I did."
"The Dao of Heaven is to take away the surplus and make up for the deficiency. The Dao of Man is different.
Who can take care of the world with surplus?
Only Daoists! "Zhuowen narrowed his eyes and muttered the words he had heard when he first entered the space.
"Yes!
It is precisely this sentence. The Dao of Heaven and the Dao of Man are different. The Dao of Man can refer to countless living beings, including the human race, foreign races, primordial god race, and so on! "
"As long as they are living beings, they will continue to reproduce and increase in numbers. After increasing in numbers, there will be disputes, and they will be disputes all year round!
If it is a small fight, it is naturally harmless. But once it becomes a terrifying war, and this kind of war has broken the original order and balance, what do you think will happen? "
Hong Meng's sharp eyes looked at Zhuowen as he questioned coldly.
Zhuowen's pupils shrank, and he said, "It will become chaotic!"
"Yes!
When order and balance are broken, it will fall into a state of chaos. The Primordial Star System was already in such a state back then! "
"The Constellation Gods divided their own regions and began to conquer each other. Years of war!
Moreover, in order to consolidate their divine authority, the four chiefs even reached into the chaotic starry sky. "
"If the situation continues to develop, countless living beings in the chaotic starry sky will be destroyed. Even the starry sky fruits in the Primordial Hong Meng Tree will suffer!
Therefore, balance is the most eternal and unchanging law in this world. "
"Once balance is lost, everything will develop in the direction of losing control. The primordial gods back then were already blinded by their desire for power. They started to lose control, destroy the balance, and trample on order!"
Zhuowen thought for a moment, and then he said solemnly, "So the Primordial Hong Meng Tree gave birth to the Demon Infant and wanted to use it to control the balance?
But you are wrong. After the Demon Infant became the Heavenly Demon King, it broke the balance again!
Everything returned to the way it was before, and it was even worse than before.
It even caused the deaths of so many innocent lives. "
Hong Meng shook his head, and he said, "No!
Everything is on the right track. As the saying goes, there can be no construction without destruction, and only after destruction can there be construction!
If we want this starry sky to develop in a long-term and peaceful manner, we can only maintain the balance! "
"The Demon Infant is only restraining the primordial gods and accelerating the destruction of the balance. The one to maintain the balance isn't the Demon Infant, but you!
Zhuowen, you are the one maintaining order, and the new balance will be maintained by you! "
"And I also believe that you can do all of this!"
Zhuowen was stunned. He didn't expect that Hong Meng had calculated all of this. However, when he thought of what he had seen and heard in the Primordial Star System, Zhuowen's heart was still filled with anger. The Demon Infant's methods were too extreme.
However, Zhuowen was powerless because he couldn't change anything.
"If you feel angry, then that's right!
Then accept the inheritance that I'm going to give you and change all of this!
Use the tenacity in your heart, your anger, and your impulse to change it! "
Hong Meng muttered softly. He stretched out his skinny right hand and pointed at Zhuowen's glabella.
Zhuowen subconsciously wanted to dodge, but he found that his body couldn't move. He could only watch as Hong Meng's right hand pointed at his glabella.
A torrent of information flowed into Zhuo Wen's mind. Along with this terrifying information, there was also a strange and mysterious power that flowed into his mind and body.
