663: Chapter 661 I understand... (for "Mo mmmmmm")
You do not recommend that I acquire the Talent of Revelation?
Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and at this moment, the explanation regarding this from [Future Tang Zheng] followed one after another.
[Tang Zheng: Because the Talent skill named "Peeping Fate" is far less practical than you imagine.
It is not only because you already have the Precognitive Dream Talent and are able to communicate with the future within dreams.
It is even more because the flaws of that skill are too obvious. It might deduce wrong images, causing you to develop certain misunderstandings and thus make a misstep.]
Chu Xuan: [But I find it very practical, because just a short while ago, through "Peeping Fate", I saw a fatal crisis that might happen in the future, and deduced from it to find more information, thereby deciding how to take the next step.]
[Tang Zheng: The future is diverse and variable, with countless possibilities. Yet, you merely deduce it based on existing conditions and assumptions, which is not necessarily true and is very likely to mislead you.
As for me, being three years after you, everything I have experienced is already a happened fact, which can guide you forward more clearly.
No matter how fierce the danger you face is, I can tell you in advance and help you change it.]
Chu Xuan: [Then how is the future? Did I die tomorrow?]
[Tang Zheng: Although you have experienced ups and downs, hardships, and dangerous perils, you ultimately survived.
However, in order to save our world and resolve the endless disasters and calamities, you embarked on a path that uniquely belongs to you.
However, your pace was too fast. Even though you left deep footprints, we still couldn't catch up to you, and we couldn't even catch a distant glimpse of your back.]
These words from [Future Tang Zheng] carried a hint of desolation, which Chu Xuan could vaguely sense even through the screen.
But he only glanced at them hurriedly, brushed them aside, and directly sent a message back:
[However, through "Peeping Fate", I found that tomorrow I will encounter a mortal calamity. Why don't you know about it?]
[Tang Zheng: Very simple, because you were able to survive this so-called mortal calamity and did not tell my past self, so I do not know the relevant content.]
Chu Xuan gently frowned: [The reason I was able to survive this mortal calamity is precisely because of "Peeping Fate".]
[Tang Zheng: If you really encountered a mortal calamity and did not have the early warning of "Peeping Fate", then when you enter a dream to contact me now, I would naturally tell you all this and provide you with effective countermeasures as much as possible.
Therefore, to you, "Peeping Fate" is actually just a chicken rib, and it might even cause you to deduce wrongly, brewing greater and more bad consequences.]
Chu Xuan fell silent. He could clearly feel that [Future Tang Zheng] was desperately disparaging the value of [Peeping Fate].
[Tang Zheng: Besides, did you really see the image of your death through the death warning of "Peeping Fate"?
As far as I know, the death image seen through "Peeping Fate" is just a possibility, which also includes the influence of proxy-death props and related skills.
In reality, you might not actually die, but rather consume a life-saving prop. You still have the possibility of surviving or even counter-killing...
You should possess a proxy-death prop or a related skill, right? Then what you saw is most likely just the image when you consumed the prop or triggered the skill.
At its root, "Peeping Fate" only lets you see a possibility about to happen in the future, and it is not necessarily going to happen for real.
Perhaps, you could have survived that so-called crisis by yourself in the first place.
Your strength is already extremely formidable, except that the crises you frequently encounter might have caused you to underestimate your own strength.]
Chu Xuan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
He had to admit that on this point, [Future Tang Zheng] was indeed right.
In the warning images seen before, although it was fraught with danger, he did indeed survive under the effect of the exclusive skill [I Will Not Die].
Even when that terrifying giant claw struck, Chu Xuan actually didn't see himself truly dying.
However, Chu Xuan still felt that [Future Tang Zheng] was deliberately disparaging the practical value of [Peeping Fate].
At this thought, Chu Xuan's gaze suddenly condensed, locking tightly onto a section of text the other party had just sent.
——[You should possess a proxy-death prop or a related skill, right?]
Chu Xuan immediately asked: [Do you really think so? You had better double-check our chat Record to see if there are any errors or omissions. Not just today, but also the content from previous periods—is there any place that was not explained clearly and might have caused me to misunderstand?]
[Tang Zheng: You have asked this question more than once. I can confirm to you again that every message I send you is repeatedly checked, and there will be no more errors or omissions!
As for what might cause you to misunderstand, it is actually just this once regarding the Talent of Revelation, "Peeping Fate".]
Seeing this, Chu Xuan let out a soft breath. His surface remained normal as usual, but in his heart, he muttered: I understand...
[Tang Zheng: I am not saying that "Peeping Fate" is useless, just that it is not perfect and has a certain conflict with your Talent. "Peeping Fate" is more about surviving cowardly and is completely unsuitable for you.]
[Tang Zheng: Whether it is life-and-death warnings or deduction-type skills, when you reach a certain height, in the future you will encounter many related skills that even far surpass the effect of "Peeping Fate".
For example, some killing-intent perception skills cannot predict the distant future, but during combat, they can accurately predict the opponent's next attack.
For another example, some skills that can sever Karma can capture information out of thin air from nothingness, calculating everything unknowable.]
[Tang Zheng: You had better actively abandon the Talent of "Peeping Fate" and not be influenced and dragged down by it...
I can tell you in advance that participating in a World Mission allows you to obtain props for erasing your own skills by consuming contribution points. You must seize this opportunity and then erase and abandon "Peeping Fate".]
Seeing [Future Tang Zheng] emphasize it repeatedly like this, Chu Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
[Tang Zheng: Huh? No! Why would I repeatedly emphasize that you should abandon "Peeping Fate"? Although this skill is somewhat of a chicken rib to you, it shouldn't be so urgent that it needs to be abandoned immediately... Something must be wrong!]
Chu Xuan's brows instantly knitted into a knot.
[Tang Zheng: I know. This must be the warning given to me by my spiritual sense!
"Peeping Fate" definitely hides some unknown hidden danger, except that it hasn't been triggered yet and even lurked until today three years later. But this hidden danger is destined to erupt, perhaps before long...]
This message had just been sent over when the next one followed closely behind.
[Tang Zheng: My spiritual sense warning is becoming increasingly strong, which shows that my guess is most likely right! Chu Xuan, you must listen to me and find a way to abandon "Peeping Fate" at the fastest speed. You must abandon it!]
Looking at this message sent by [Future Tang Zheng], Chu Xuan remained silent for a long time, then slowly typed out four words and sent them over:
[I understand...]
