Chapter 1601: Section 1602 World within the Heart

At first, they thought that Onassis was preparing to counterattack, but he didn’t. Instead, he seed to be conversing with Suyatutai.

Suyatutai also furrowed his brow and engaged in the dialogue.

Initially, it seed like an argunt, but soon, Suyatutai fell silent, seemingly encountering a problem and sinking into deep thought.

The sudden quiet on the scene puzzled both Angel and Greya. However, the surrounding audience seed accustod to it.

In response to this strange situation, Sharley explained, “Actually, this ti it’s much better than before.”

It turns out, this seemingly dull Philosopher used to be weirder in the past. As soon as the match started, Onassis would mutter a few words, and his opponent would fall into a state of confusion, ending the match.

This ti, at least, Suyatutai took the initiative to strike first and argued for a while before falling into contemplation. It’s much better compared to the past.

“From what you say, it kinda sounds like Word Spirit.” Greya pondered.

“If it were Word Spirit, preventing him from speaking would suffice. But even without speaking, he can still imrse others,” Sharley recalled. “I rember a past instance where, before Onassis could speak, he was directly made to lose his ability to speak through a silence aura. Yet, he still lost. After the match, when soone asked him why, he said that even the silence aura couldn’t stop the opponent from dispersing information onto him.”

Angel: “That ans language is just one of the thods; his main battle tactic is through information transmission.”

“Perhaps that’s the case, but no one can confirm it,” Sharley paused. “By the way, if it’s really through transmitting information, can we completely block the information he sends?”

Angel shook his head.

The desire to completely block the information sent by the opponent ans ignoring all language, images, scents, pheromones, etc. It might sound like not falling into Onassis’s rhythm, but upon closer thought, it turns out that doing so would make it even harder to defeat him.

The reasoning is simple; when you stand in the ring and realize your opponent is Onassis, you’ve already started receiving information. If you completely block it out, treating him like air, then whom are you fighting against?

Sharley proposed another hypothesis: “What about launching a wide-range attack, bombarding the ring? This way, you could also avoid receiving the opponent’s information.”

Because this is a ring, the battle area is limited, so it seems possible to implent the approach Sharley suggested.

At this mont, Greya pointed at the ring: “Don’t forget, previously Suyatutai covered the entire ring with a tide wave, probably thinking of this very sa thing. However, it had no effect.”

Sharley sighed, “Looking at it this way, it seems really difficult to win against him.”

In the ring, Suyatutai was still deep in thought, while Onassis did not lay a hand on him but quietly watched him.

Greya then leaned close to Angel and whispered, “Do you rember what Onassis said just now?”

Angel nodded and slowly muttered, “My existence is rely a law of material combination, and all material combinations are but specks of dust under billions of stars, insignificant. Only the mind and thoughts can hold billions of stars.”

This statent was the first thing Onassis said after the start of the match.

It was also what he said in response to Suyatutai’s variant tide wave technique.

“This sentence seems very philosophical.” Greya, who had also caught Onassis’s words through lip-reading, vaguely understood the aning. Moreover, she had an intuition that Onassis’s ability to withstand Suyatutai’s tide wave technique might be due to this sentence.

“This sentence cos from ‘World within the Heart’, an ancient philosophical text.”

Although there are circulation restrictions on transcendent books in this world, the works of mortals are not restricted. Even though Angel was born in the distant Old Earth Continent, from ti to ti foreign cargo ships would bring classic masterpieces from other continents, including those from Flourish Continent.

‘World within the Heart’, although not considered a major work, is very famous in philosophical speculation. Angel had also read it when he was young.

There is much content in the book, but in Angel’s view, the main speculation is actually just one sentence: Who am I.

Who am I. It’s a famous question in philosophy; many philosophical speculations like to extend from this phrase, and ‘World within the Heart’ discusses this issue through “Material Universe and Spirit World” and “The Small and The Great”.

Angel simply explained the outline of the book, then said: “What Onassis speaks of, in simple terms, is the perspective transformation between the flesh and consciousness.”

What’s intriguing is that right after Onassis uttered those words, his physical body seed to really vanish, transford into an existing consciousness.

It is precisely because of this, Onassis was completely unaffected by the Tide Technique, for his physical body had beco insignificant, while his consciousness began to elevate.

“Quite interesting.” Greya narrowed her eyes and suddenly smiled.

She rembered, the second sentence Onassis said to Suyatutai, was an extension of the first: “I know you’re puzzled why I’m unhard in the tidal wave. Because I am very clear about who I am.”

The previous parts are not important, the most crucial phrase is: Who am I.

Because of this phrase, Suyatutai argued with him about the aning of “I”, a philosophical issue, which is now debated in the arena by “Philosopher Scholars” and “Philosophers”. Eventually, the Philosopher’s speculation evidently surpassed, drawing Suyatutai into his rhythm and into contemplation.

At this mont, a sudden exclamation erupted from the spectator stands.

Greya turned her gaze to the stage, but saw that Suyatutai’s figure was gradually dimming, as if fading away, his physical body transitioning from solid to virtual. But Suyatutai is not Onassis, and as his body was about to lt into the virtual, he spewed a mouthful of fresh blood and fell to the ground.

In just that short mont of contemplation, Suyatutai’s body sustained great damage. The near-death agony brought Suyatutai out of contemplating the question “Who am I”.

He struggled to push himself up, lifting his head to look at Onassis across from him.

In his eyes was disbelief.

Five years ago, the other party was still a child, holding a book ‘Pink Elephants and Colorless Rain’ asking him for philosophical guidance. He casually answered so seemingly correct answers, not even certain if his explanations were correct, but Onassis happily accepted them.

Back then, he even mocked Onassis’s naivety in his heart. Such a person, how could he possibly survive in the Wizards’ Realm, sooner or later would be thrown ashore by the tidal waves.

But now, Onassis used his naivety, and trampled what he once considered his pride, underfoot.

“I… lost.”

Once Suyatutai admitted defeat, the floating panel of judges imdiately raised their hands, signaling the end of the match. At the sa ti, they swiftly arranged for the dical team to co forward and treat Suyatutai.

It might seem Suyatutai only threw up a bout of blood, seemingly a minor injury, but considering the condition of Onassis’s past opponents, if not treated promptly, it’s very likely that his insides would have completely turned to nothingness…
