"All things in the universe have their own laws of operation, which is the Great Dao. But all things are derived from simple laws. In fact, everything can be simplified and its complexity reduced. This is the 'Great Dao is simple.' Just like when I climbed the tree, I could have walked up with my two legs, so why did I have to climb?"
Zhou Qian looked at Mo Chen with a smile through her big, blinking eyes, as if asking a question in return.
Mo Chen was speechless.
"Why do you think that is?"
"Of course, Newton wouldn't allow it!"
"Haha."
Zhou Qian smiled when she saw Mo Chen's discomfort and continued to explain, "In your eyes, gravity is inviolable, but in my eyes, it is 'complexity,' which I can simply remove. It's that simple."
Liu Yueyue: "..."
Mo Chen: "..."
Are you trying to defy the heavens?! You think you can just go wherever gravity takes you? What kind of insane ability is this?
"According to your logic, shouldn't you be able to fly directly if gravity is removed?" Mo Chen felt there was a bug in this.
"I'm not really removing gravity! I'm just making climbing trees easier, not giving you any special abilities, understand?"
"Oh, I see. You mean simplification is the key, right?" Liu Yueyue seemed to have suddenly figured it out.
"My Yueyue is so smart!"
Zhou Qian stuck her tongue out at Mo Chen. You're so stupid.
"Following your logic, could you move the Earth?" Mo Chen analyzed.
"Give me a lever, and you can move the Earth, as long as you ignore the Earth's weight?"
"Yes, that's the idea. But it's impossible to move the Earth. I have the mental power, but I don't have that ability. Climbing the tree just now wasn't difficult at all, so I could do it naturally. But moving the Earth is not something an ordinary person can do."
Liu Yueyue said, "So, you can do things that aren't particularly outrageous?"
"Yes, more or less." Zhou Qian nodded. "That's why I can't fly."
"Not bad, not bad. If you use this ability well, it can produce unexpected results."
Mo Chen felt that this ability seemed ordinary but actually had great potential, and it might unexpectedly bring victory in some situations.
"Yes, yes, I think so too."
Zhou Qian smiled and hugged the two of them, extremely happy.
"Alright, your matter has been resolved. You can focus on your cultivation from now on. I also have a gift prepared for you and Liu Yueyue."
As he spoke, Mo Chen took out two crystal tokens and handed them to Zhou Qian and Liu Yueyue.
Zhou Qian and Liu Yueyue were so shocked their mouths could have swallowed eggs. Their faces were full of disbelief. They rubbed, touched, and polished the crystal plaques, as if afraid that their eyes were playing tricks on them.
"Mo Chen, is this true?" the two exclaimed at the same time.
"Of course, but don't ask me how I got it. Just know that it's real."
Mo Chen added, "Alright, go back now. Don't let anyone else know. This thing can kill people."
"Mmm!"
Zhou Qian nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with happiness as she looked at Mo Chen.
As for Liu Yueyue, her eyes were filled with love.
She hasn't awakened yet. She's been trying to awaken for over 24 hours, which means she's not in the 1%. Without an opportunity, she might remain unknown for the rest of her life.
When she learned that there were Awakening Stones in the secret realm, her dream of awakening was rekindled. However, there are only 100 keys in the world, and she did not think she had the chance to obtain one, so she was inevitably disappointed.
But who would have thought that Mo Chen would give her hope again, a hope that might allow her to awaken?
In Liu Yueyue's eyes, this was Mo Chen's love for her. Mo Chen was able to give Zhou Qian a key because they were childhood sweethearts. But what about herself? If it weren't for love, why would Mo Chen give her such a precious key?
Liu Yueyue felt incredibly sweet at that moment. If Zhou Qian hadn't been there, she would have loved to shower him with affection. Liu Yueyue thought to herself that she must make it up to Mo Chen when Zhou Qian was no longer around.
And so, Zhou Qian and Liu Yueyue, each with their own ulterior motives, carefully put the key away.
"I'll be there in three days too, don't worry."
Mo Chen gave the two of them a reassuring look before quickly leaving, leaving behind only a dashing silhouette.
Actually, Mo Chen's departure wasn't graceful at all. He was quite uneasy. The intense gazes from the two women earlier left him unsure how to react, which is why he left in a hurry.
It's obvious that both of them are interested in him; one is his childhood friend, and the other is his childhood friend's childhood friend.
Do you want to choose one? I have a bit of a headache!
Why don't we just take them all?
Um... well... well... how could I do such a thing?
Although Mo Chen verbally refused, his excited expression betrayed him.
Back in the dorm, his three buddies were still desperately trying to awaken their powers.
Mo Chen didn't plan to sleep either; he wanted to use up the remaining karma to enhance his strength.
The total karma value is over 50 million. Over 30 million was spent on creating the secret realm during the day, and now there are over 20 million karma values remaining.
He planned to use these 20 million causality values to "purchase" the domain, which was to refine the dark energy particles outside his body.
He had already asked the system how much it cost to construct the domain using causality values.
In short: Expensive!
It takes 10 million causality values to refine a 1-meter-radius area, so his 20 million values would only amount to 2 meters.
It's a bit pricey, but it's worth it. You should know that if he were to refine it himself, it would take at least a month or more, and he would have to work extremely hard.
It's so convenient now, just buy it directly with money! Why bother with cultivation? Wouldn't it be better to just pay for it?
"Because South Korea does not have its own writing system, Mo Chen obtained a dark energy domain with a radius of 2 meters."
"Ding, this setting requires 20 million causality points. Confirm?"
"Sure."
In an instant, Mo Chen sensed the dark energy outside his body, and the space within a two-meter radius was completely visible to him. It did indeed have a bit of the divine consciousness found in fantasy novels.
Mo Chen's domain covered the fat man's desk, where a bag of spicy strips was placed.
He activated the "Ten Thousand Leaves Flying Flowers" law, and the packet of spicy strips gradually transformed into dozens of red petals, which danced gracefully on the desk.
Let's dance, spicy strips!
With another thought, those fluttering petals turned back into spicy strips.
"Not bad, not bad. Once you enter my territory, you can do whatever you want."
For those awakened individuals who currently lack a domain, Mo Chen is practically a bug.
