"Furthermore, what Shang'er is pursuing might not be a temporary happiness. After this happiness, there might be eternal damnation."
Cang Yan looked at the chessboard and asked calmly, "Even you don't know?"
Ancient Nameless shook his head and replied, "Whether he is a variable or a variable from the Daoless Era, heaven and earth do not know. Fate cannot be determined and karma cannot be followed. The only thing that can be determined and followed is the variable himself."
Ancient Nameless closed his eyes and said worriedly, "Daoless Mountain is filled with unknowns. Heaven and earth, fate, karma, future, all of these are …"
Cang Yan did not ask further. She knew that if Ancient Nameless said that Daoless Mountain was filled with unknowns, then it must be filled with unknowns.
Ancient Nameless looked at the chessboard and smiled helplessly.
Cang Yan asked, "Do you want to meet him?"
"If possible, I don't want to meet him."
"Why?"
"He has a deep misunderstanding of me."
"But you have to meet him, don't you?"
"Everyone says that I am the messenger of fate, the embodiment of karma. But they don't know that I am just a passerby of endless time. I can't represent karma or fate. Unfortunately, no one understands."
"Let's return."
After saying that, Ancient Nameless disappeared as if he had never existed.
After Ancient Nameless left for a long time, Nalan Qianqiu asked carefully, "Senior Sister, Senior Nameless said that after Daoless Mountain descends, everything will be filled with unknowns. But didn't you say that when Daoless Mountain descends, whether it is the 3,000 Great Daos or heaven and earth, they will kill Gu Qingfeng at all costs? Jun Xuanji and those from the Daoless Era, you and Senior Nameless have already appeared. Why is the future still filled with unknowns? Could it be that he is already indestructible?"
"Being indestructible is not scary." Cang Yan said, "What is scary is that he might have already transcended life and death. There is no difference between life and death to him. If he is alive, he is dead. If he is dead, he is alive."
"Can't Senior Nameless strike him into the Returning Ruins?"
Cang Yan shook her head and said, "The Returning Ruins has already disappeared …"
"What! Has the Sinkhole really collapsed? "
Nalan Qianqiu had always heard about the collapse of the Bottomless Chasm along with the collapse of the Primordial Era. However, it was only a rumor, and no one knew whether it was true or not. Now that she heard from her Eldest Senior Sister that the Bottomless Chasm had long disappeared, she was extremely shocked.
"The Ultimate has only disappeared. No one knows whether it has truly collapsed or not." Changing the topic, Cang Yan picked up a cup of wine and downed it in one gulp. "However, from the various signs, even if the Void End hasn't collapsed, I'm afraid it's not much different …"
"We can't kill him, nor can we enter the Sinkhole. Could it be that we really can't do anything to him?"
"It's not that there's no way, it's just that I don't know if it's possible …"
"Then … if Pathless Mountain descends and we are unable to kill him, then … what is the worst outcome?"
"The 3,000 Great Dao will collapse, heaven and earth will be destroyed, and the Pathless Era will reappear in heaven and earth. At that time, humans will no longer be humans, ghosts will no longer be ghosts, immortals will no longer be immortals, demons will no longer be demons, and Buddhas will no longer be Buddhas. There will no longer be any Great Dao, any laws, or any order between heaven and earth … There will only be endless chaos, only endless chaos …"
Cang Yan's words made Nalan Qianqiu feel somewhat hopeless. She didn't know what kind of terrifying heaven and earth would look like when the 3,000 Great Dao collapsed, heaven and earth would be destroyed, and humans would no longer be humans and immortals would no longer be immortals. She didn't know, and she couldn't even imagine.
"How could this be …"
Nalan Qianqiu's face was ashen, and she couldn't stand steadily. "Senior Nameless is said to know everything in heaven and earth. She is also known as the messenger of fate and the incarnation of karma. Is there no way for her to do anything?"
Cang Yan's voice was always so calm, as if there was no emotion in it. "Didn't you hear what she said just now? Although she is the messenger of fate and the incarnation of karma, that's all. She can't control fate or karma. She can't represent karma or fate … "
She downed another cup of wine.
She continued, "She said that she's just a passerby in this endless passage of time. She's also just a passerby. Moreover, she's the most pitiful passerby in my opinion."
"Why?" Nalan Qianqiu couldn't understand.
"Karma and fate might be very far away from us, so far that we can't touch them, and we might never be able to touch them. However, karma and fate are very, very close to her. She might even be able to touch them with a lift of her hand."
"The sad thing is that we can't choose our own karma, and she can't choose either. We can't control our own fate, and she can't control it either."
"A person known as the messenger of fate and the incarnation of karma can't choose her own karma, and she can't control her own fate. Don't you think this is very pitiful and sad?"
After Nameless Immemorial left, Cang Yan continued to play chess.
This was a Endgame. She had been playing this Endgame with Nameless Ancient for a very, very long time. It had been so long that she could not even remember when it started. She only knew that the Endgame was still a Endgame. There had never been any changes.
She held a black piece in her hand and placed it down. She said, "If karma could choose, I believe she would want to sever it more than anyone else. If fate could control itself, I believe she would want to change it more than anyone else. Unfortunately … unfortunately, there are no 'ifs'."
Perhaps she thought of something, but Cang Yan didn't drink the wine. Instead, she raised the wine cup to her lips and said, "Moreover, even if karma could be severed, you might not be able to do it when the time comes. Take Shang 'er for example. Even if you asked her to sever it now, she wouldn't do it."
"Even if fate could be changed, you might not want to change it. Take Gu … him. His fate is in his own hands, but he might not want to change it."
"Do you know what karma is? This is probably what karma is. "
"Do you know what fate is? This is probably what fate is. "
Cang Yan raised her head and drank the wine in the cup. She closed her eyes and sighed again.
This sigh.
She sighed because of the endless hesitation in her heart.
Perhaps he saw that Cang Yan was about to leave again. Nalan Qianqiu hurriedly asked, "Senior Sister, are you leaving?"
"Pathless Mountain is about to descend …"
"Then what about me … you won't let me go with you?"
"You should go back first."
"Go back? Why would I go back now? To resign myself to fate? "
"Who isn't?" Cang Yan asked. Then she muttered to herself, "Everyone is."
"But … what about Shang 'er? Don't you care about Shang 'er? "
"Let her be."
