Chapter 2745 - Different Path
It was different from Under the Sky. Sit and Forget Sutra was a completely unique path. Even to Han Sen, who had studied many different geno arts, this skill was incredibly fresh and amazing. It was like opening the door to a new world.
Exquisite and Li Keer were both stunned and deliriously happy. They could feel everything Han Sen was learning, and they gained new insights every time Han Sen understood something.
They were beyond pleased with the incredible capabilities of the Sit and Forget Sutra. They both practiced the Very High Sense, so they knew how precious the Sit and Forget Sutra was. At the same time, they knew how hard it would be to truly learn the Sit and Forget Sutra.
This was especially true for the Very High who had practiced the Very High Sense. For them, learning the Sit and Forget Sutra would be pretty much impossible. Throughout the years, many gifted Very High would have been incapable of learning this geno art, even if it was right in front of them.
The alpha had his reasons for not recording the Sit and Forget Sutra in the historical records of the Very High. If those who had studied the Very High Sense practiced the Sit and Forget Sutra, the results would be disastrous for most of them. Unless they had already surpassed the larva rank and become deified butterflies, learning the Sit and Forget Sutra might damage them instead of helping them. So, the alpha didn’t leave his new creation behind. He drew it on the Ancient Wall, hoping that someday, a Very High would fulfill the requirements to learn it.
Although the Sit and Forget Sutra was derived from the Very High Sense, it was far more extreme than its geno art progenitor. Unless someone could completely understand the Sit and Forget Sutra, the two geno arts would immediately fall into a devastating conflict.
The Very High Forget Love still lent the word “Forget” into the Sit and Forget Sutra. That made this geno art very special.
The ultimate goal of the Very High Sense was achieving Sky and Man Combined Together. All practitioners of the Very High Sense wanted to combine their universes into one, so they could achieve an understanding of everything between the sky and the ground. They wanted to control and rule the entire universe.
But the Sit and Forget Sutra was completely different from this. Its practitioners sought to forget things and themselves. They had to let go of the universe, the sky, and the ground around them. Once they had completely abandoned the things that they once held onto, they could reach an existence that was free of all constraints.
Because Han Sen had only learned the method for practicing this new geno art, he wasn’t sure yet what would happen when he used the skill. In truth, Han Sen and the two women didn’t know exactly what benefits the Sit and Forget Sutra would offer them.
But one thing Exquisite knew for sure was that if she had learned the geno art herself instead of receiving Han Sen’s knowledge second-hand, the Sit and Forget Sutra and the Very High Sense would have conflicted. She would have been destroyed as the two geno arts went to war within her.
Learning the Sit and Forget Sutra from one end to the other was the only way to find out that the Sit and Forget Sutra was the Very High Sense in reverse. When they were pushed to the max, the two geno arts became essentially the same.
Exquisite and Li Keer continued to learn, and the more they learned, the more they were shocked by what the alpha had achieved. If they hadn’t practiced the Very High Sense, they would have been as high as kites. So high, it couldn’t be described. No one else could have made this geno art that was called Sit and Forget Sutra.
Bzzt!
Han Sen looked at the final picture. And after he did, he felt as if his entire body had leveled up. Everything in the universe now looked different in his eyes.
Nice things, evil things, love, hatred. Everything suddenly lost all of its importance. Everything seemed so still and calm that it couldn’t be described.
He had never known the true face of Lu Mountain, and fate only resided on that mountain. Humans were always trapped in the throes of love and hatred. It was because they were part of the game. They couldn’t escape from it.
Now Han Sen was feeling a bit different about things. It was like he had disconnected himself from the game. It was like he was a human looking at a bunch of ants scurrying about far beneath him. And in between those ants, there was love and there was hatred. There was life. There was death. There were goodbyes. To Han Sen, they were just small and insignificant things.
If Han Sen’s Under the Sky mind made him look like a chess piece, then the one he had gained from the Sit and Forget Sutra made him the person who was playing the game of chess. He had jumped off the chessboard. He was now looking down on the fate of all.
It wasn’t like one of them was right and one of them was wrong. It was just that his perspective had been altered. Han Sen’s Under the Sky mind was about being a part of the world. The Sit and Forget Sutra was looking down at the world from a higher plane. It was only the path that was different.
Of course, Han Sen’s level was so much lower than the alpha’s had been. The alpha had reached the end of his trail, but Han Sen had only started his a short while ago.
There was no right road, and neither was there a wrong road. But there was a difference between people. Han Sen wanted to reach the same level as the alpha, but he knew he had a while to go before he could reach such heights.
But the alpha’s mind and the Sit and Forget Sutra gave Han Sen a chance to look through the other man’s eyes for a bit. It was hard to guess how much of a benefit this would give him.
“After countless eons, the Sit and Forget Sutra has finally been returned to the Very High. Han Sen, you are the one who did this. And I assure you, you will be handsomely rewarded.” When Han Sen looked back, he saw an old man of the Very High. The lanky, bony old man stood in front of Han Sen, looking so happy as he spoke.
Exquisite and Li Keer saw the pair standing there, and they were frozen. They quickly turned to Han Sen and said, “Hurry up and thank the Ninth Uncle.”
“Thank you, elder.” Han Sen bowed. He didn’t think that the elder’s praise was something to be happy about. At that moment, he didn’t have any particular feelings about anything in the world.
The Ninth Uncle wasn’t concerned about Han Sen’s attitude. The Very High that practiced the Very High Sense cared little for manners in their world. The Ninth Uncle was a butterfly elite, so he wasn’t bothered by such petty concerns.
The rebirth of the Sit and Forget Sutra shocked the whole of the Very High. Many Very High studied the Sit and Forget Sutra. Li Keer and Exquisite taught it to any who wanted to learn, but most students were disappointed in the results of their studies. The Sit and Forget Sutra’s conflict with the Very High Sense was too much. Unless their minds reached an alpha level, they couldn’t practice the two geno arts together.
The alpha called himself the highest Very High beneath the leader. When he had been alive, he had looked through the whole of the Very High race and failed to find one person with a mind that was the same as his. So, no one dared to practice the Sit and Forget Sutra.
When they failed to learn from Li Keer and Exquisite, a few of the Very High tried to replicate Han Sen’s method by studying the feelings of the Ancient Wall. However, when they peered into the Very High eye mark, they couldn’t trigger the mind inside.
Aside from Han Sen, Exquisite, and Li Keer, no one in the Very High could effectively practice the Sit and Forget Sutra. That made many of the Very High feel sad.
But Exquisite and Li Keer could practice the Sit and Forget Sutra, at least, and that was very good for the Very High on the whole. They were happy.
Because Han Sen was the one who had brought the Sit and Forget Sutra back to the Very High, he was given many rewards.
When Han Sen received his rewards, he was upset. He thought he would at least be given some deified xenogeneic genes, or perhaps some sort of treasure. If he was given a true god item, that would have been great.
But instead, the Very High gave him a pass that allowed him to go to the Very High Court.
The Very High Court was a treasury that the Very High used to store their geno arts. When Han Sen received the spell, he gained the privileges of a Very High. He had the authority to enter the Very High Court, and he could practice all sorts of geno arts there. But to Han Sen, this reward was worse than geno treasures and xenogeneic genes.
Exquisite and Li Keer sneered when they noticed Han Sen’s thoughts. He had gotten very lucky, but he didn’t seem to acknowledge it.
