The Legend of Min Hong

Chapter 231: Force Dao

"I also had many divine treasures, amulets, pills, talismans and artifacts with me during that time that helped me battle, but neither of us could actually kill each other"

"It will get really messy if I try to explain it any more than this, you will understand better when you get there yourself"

"Are you implying that I will go to hell, or are you just straight telling me to do so???" Min Hong butt in but was utterly and completely ignored

"The thing is, each 'plane of existence' is almost boundless. No one can claim to have explored every inch of it, let alone seven of them"

"There are countless Proscribed Burial Grounds, Cursed Lands, Forsaken Cities, and these are just to mention a few"

"All these places are extremely life threatening and hold many, countless secrets."

"Even experts on my level can't just enter those places just because they feel like, they could really lose their lives"

"The Seven Planes are truly without end, talk less of the Nine Rings of the Netherworld and the Ten heavens"

"These places holds beings you might most likely never even know existed, they could be actual gods or pure devils, and just I said earlier, you will have to venture into these places to truly understand what I am talking about"

"Furthermore, the heavens and the netherworld are not all that religious; their residents in every single generation live and die just like mortals, often times"

"Shit, t-that is a very massive information dump"

Min Hong finally settled his mind and relaxed his back to assimilate all the new information he had just received

Could someone truly claim to be the strongest when the borders of the living is that large and deep?

That's even ignoring the void or infinite Oblivion; though it is claimed to contain nothing, but Min Hong was beginning to think that is because no one has ever explored it before and just so they could make its limits comprehensible to the living, they decided to claim it was empty

If it was truly empty, hoe come Chaos existed within it?

For a long, long time, the duo sat on the boat in utter silence; one swimming in the vast amounts of knowledge and enlightenment and the other in the deepest depths of nostalgic memories

"Oh, for my third question, what was the 'Dao' you cultivated?" Min Hong blushed in intense shame, but, he still expressionlessly asked

"Little punk, I have lived for countless eons, battled the entire netherworld and even the first created beings and beasts, and I still can't remember coming across someone as shameless as you" Cui looked at Min Hong as he spoke with utmost seriousness

"To me, It would be a bad thing if I did not even try at all" Min Hong laughed awkwardly as he sheepishly scratched his head, trying not to look at Cui in his eyes

*Sigh*

"You know we are pretty similar in a way" Cui suddenly added with a deep helpless sigh

"We were born and raised as a mortal, and then out of nowhere, plunged into this mess of creations"

"What are you implying?"

Min Hong didn't understand the meaning of Cui's statement, and though his words were as clear as crystal, Min Hong didn't get the deeper meaning within them, and knowing who he was, Min Hong could swear that, if Cui should ask;

"Have you eaten?"

One should read the statement wisely because it would definitely contain insights and hold deeper meanings to it...

"Oh don't mind me, I totally forgot that there is a strong possibility we are not even from the same plane, and the sheer amount of time that might have passed since I have been here"

"Don't mind my manner of speech and accent, beings back then within my plane, could receive insights and read the deeper meanings within words as easy as releasing a silent, soft fart"

"But don't sweat it, there are two ways this can pan out"

"One, you finish what you came here for, return to the land of the living and unlock every memory of what you have learnt here, after all, the knowledge alone can make you dominate those stronger than you"

"The other way is that, you fail and get stuck here just like me and eventually pass away, unable to use any of everything you have learnt so far"

"What? Unlock what memories? What in Huoyi's curly beard are you talking about now?" Min Hong asked with a suspicious mentality and tone

Was this another one of his riddles?

"Nevermind I will tell you anyways, there's no certainty that you will leave this place after all even if you eventually manage to leave, the possibilities of remembering these information is also close to nil"

"I feel bad for what you will have to go through just because you possess such information Then, you will have to make a choice"

Cui muttered beneath his breath, but the Min Hong who was paying nigh impossible amount of attention got everything he said as his ears nearly stood on end in anticipation;

"Tell me what exactly?" He asked

"The Dao that I used to battle the 'lords of the rings' like you call them was the Dao of Force"

"Do you know what force is?" Cui asked

"Isn't that-"  Min Hong wanted to explain but his words at this moment forsook him

"Just listen; Everyone will tell you or advice you to cultivate one Dao or the other, but the things is, they are all being to narrow-minded and extremely straightforward..."

"The Dao of Light would not achieve its effect to its full potential when it faces another cultivator who uses the Dao of Light, it is the same for the Death Dao that has little effect on the dead, after all, you can't kill what is already dead"

"But you see the Dao of Force, it will never do such a thing"

"Force is everywhere and within everything"

"It is the gravity that holds you to the ground it is the black hole that ensures a planet doesn't spin out of its solar system"

"Then finally, it is what sends you flying after you have been hit with a solid kick"

"Imagine having control over every forms of force, kinetic energy, potential energy and gravity, just to mention a few"

"It is said that it is generated when several atoms or particles moved at rapid speed, right? That is how flames are born and likewise electricity, but what you should know is that, these particles won't move an inch if there is no driving 'force' behind them"

"Thus, if someone attacks you with fire, you can just manipulate the force within the particles that are moving rapidly and slow them down or stopping them completely"

"What you will notice if you do that is that, that fire would be neutralized, or put in simpler terms, cease to exist"

"If you move further on to stop these particles completely, and thereafter pack them together, you will get ice"

"The possibilities are endless You could neutralize other attacks, deflect them, deflect them, or even absorb them"

"I was only ever able to get full control over gravity and kinetic force By cultivating these aspects of force, I created my first inner world and ascended into godhood the weight of this world could rival that of the biggest planets"

"Imagine what just a kick from me would be like, and then imagine if someone else kicked you; that person would most likely have their leg shattered"
