Chapter 885
"Sharing your fortune?"
Butu's eyes flickered with suspicion, his emotions shifting unpredictably.
After a moment, he frowned and said, "Don't you know?"
"As times change, fate takes its own course. The once-complete system of fortune-telling has completely collapsed in this era."
"Rebuilding this system would require countless people and at least 100,000 years of effort."
Perhaps feeling that Tianchou might not understand divination and other methods of fortune-telling, Butu added an extra explanation:
"If fate is a long and complex giant scroll."
"That is to say, the original painting has been destroyed."
"Now, there's only a blank sheet of paper left."
"The reconstruction of the fate-predicting system is like redrawing a picture on a blank sheet of paper."
“Every time a player uses the method of predicting fate to deduce the future, it is equivalent to drawing a very insignificant stroke on a blank sheet of paper.”
"As for the original, already formed picture of destiny, we, the successors who enjoy the fruits of our predecessors, can clearly see what is drawn on the scroll of destiny."
"When you add that stroke, it will be a natural and effortless process."
"But now, facing a blank scroll of destiny, it's extremely difficult to put pen to paper..."
As the old saying goes, "Everything is difficult at the beginning."
"During this period, predicting the future is the most difficult."
"If we wait another 100,000 years, the system for predicting fate will be rebuilt, and the Scroll of Destiny will be enriched again. When I predict your fate again, it will be a piece of cake."
Tianchou didn't really understand any methods of determining fate, but these words were easy to understand, and he grasped them instantly.
I just couldn't help but complain in my heart—
You think you can live for 100,000 years?
He doesn't even know if he can live for 100,000 years.
The history of all races seems so long.
The lifespan on the data panel of the strong also easily exceeds 100 million.
However, data is ultimately just data.
So what if life expectancy exceeds 10 billion?
Very few people can truly withstand the passage of time and live for more than ten thousand years.
Not to mention 100,000 years...
And the key point is—
The reason Tianchou "doesn't understand" so-called methods of determining fate is not because he lacks access to information about them.
Rather, it's because he doesn't believe in fate.
His unwavering belief has always been—
His destiny was of his own making.
No one can make or change it for him.
So what if a fortune teller really does predict his future?
He simply doesn't believe it!
So when he says he wants Butu to do a divination for him, he doesn't actually want Butu to predict the future.
After Butu explained it himself, he also felt that the idea of deciding Tianchou's fate 100,000 years later was indeed too outrageous.
After explaining, he added:
"However, besides the most talked-about method of predicting the future, there are many other categories of divination and fortune-telling."
"I can help you with other things, such as good or bad fortune, or the past."
Tian Chou raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Isn't divination about good and bad fortune just predicting the future?"
"And this divination of the past is even more outrageous. My past, I myself didn't know I was using your divination?"
When talking about his area of expertise, Butu exudes confidence.
That innate confidence allowed him to hold his own even against Tianchou, who was born with confidence.
He chuckled and raised his eyebrows slightly: "There are many methods of divination, and those involving predicting the future are just one of them."
"And I have mastered no fewer than ten methods of divination to predict good or bad fortune."
"Even if the future has already collapsed, I can still easily predict good or bad fortune."
That's quite an arrogant statement.
Seeing his confident and arrogant demeanor, Tianchou couldn't help but retort again:
"Is it really that amazing? Why didn't you consult the oracle for yourself before this order assessment?"
