Chapter 1208: Chapter 1208: Cosmic First Conjecture

“A gift from an old friend should be well kept.” Lin Shen flipped through World Unsolved Mysteries, speaking while looking at its contents: “What’s written here is your brain’s thought process and calculation logic, isn’t it?”

“Originally, I gave it to you just to find out if you could use your brain to calculate like I can, to determine if you are the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body,” Vice Dean An said.

“Then I’m puzzled, I don’t have this ability at all, and I haven’t learned your skill. How did you determine I’m the reincarnation?” Lin Shen asked, perplexed.

Vice Dean An explained, “Initially, I indeed thought you weren’t. Your brain indeed didn’t seem like it, not only lacking the Great Emperor’s level of calculation ability, but even less than an average person. I once thought I had guessed wrong.”

“Later, your performance in the Battle of Sky Pinnacle Star convinced me that you are the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. It’s just because there were some issues during reincarnation, leading to brain damage, resulting in your current state.” Vice Dean An affirmed, convinced that Lin Shen was the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body.

“What did I do in the Battle of Sky Pinnacle Star?” Lin Shen was full of doubt. He didn’t think he had done anything strange.

“That maneuver of yours in killing the Unique Two was the pinnacle of calculation display. If it weren’t for the Great Emperor’s reincarnation, even immortals like us couldn’t have done it,” Vice Dean An replied.

Upon hearing this, Lin Shen’s heart stirred: “Killing the Unique Two was done by Lin Wan, not me. Vice Dean An is so sure that the power of killing the Unique Two can only be achieved by the Great Emperor’s reincarnation. Could it be that Lin Wan is the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body?”

Lin Shen still hadn’t figured out Lin Wan’s background, and what she said didn’t seem trustworthy.

“What if I tell you I wasn’t the one who killed the Unique Two?” Lin Shen was somewhat doubtful. It was fine if others couldn’t see that he hadn’t killed Unique Two, but even someone as strong as Vice Dean An didn’t notice.

So what exactly was Lin Wan’s cultivation at that time that could deceive Vice Dean An?

“Besides you, there was no one else at the time. Even if there were others, they couldn’t escape my eyes,” Vice Dean An said.

“What if I tell you seriously that I didn’t kill the Unique Two?” Lin Shen continued, looking at him.

Vice Dean An was stunned: “If it wasn’t you, then who was it?”

“The person you suggested might be the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body,” Lin Shen replied.

“That’s not impossible. If there truly was a Great Emperor Reincarnation Body who had already regained the emperor-level standards nearby, it could achieve these things,” Vice Dean An didn’t doubt Lin Shen but pondered various possibilities.

“But that doesn’t make sense. Aside from you, there was no one else present at that time who could be the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. Could there be an eighth Great Emperor Reincarnation Body?” Vice Dean An’s brain, comparable in calculation power to a top-tier smart brain, was nearly overheating but still couldn’t figure out what was going on.

Lin Shen didn’t say anything more, letting Vice Dean An calculate while he quickly read through World Unsolved Mysteries.

The content inside was filled with various mathematical formulas and theories, mostly regular, but there was one conjecture that was just what Lin Shen was looking for.

A conjecture is just a conjecture, unverified and temporarily unknown to be right or wrong.

The existence of a conjecture indicates that Vice Dean An’s brain is not all-knowing and all-powerful and can’t possibly factor in every element of the cosmos.

“Vice Dean An, why did you write this conjecture in there? If I’m not mistaken, these conjectures should be your weaknesses, areas your brain cannot reach,” Lin Shen said, looking at that conjecture.

“This conjecture, named the Cosmic First Conjecture, cannot be proven true or false by anyone except an emperor-grade smart brain. Any being that understands what it truly is can immediately become emperor-level,” Vice Dean An calmly said, “This is not just my weakness but the weakness of all immortals. It is also all immortals’ pursuit. To compute its result is our ultimate dream.”

“Is it that difficult?” Lin Shen was curious about how special this conjecture was to be so hard.

“Extremely difficult. You know pi, right? The difficulty is akin to calculating pi to the very end,” Vice Dean An said while still processing what Lin Shen had mentioned earlier: “You say it wasn’t you who killed the Unique Two, then who was it?”

“Lin Wan,” Lin Shen gave a straightforward answer and also watched Vice Dean An closely, observing his expression.

“It cannot be her; she absolutely cannot be the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body,” Vice Dean An declared firmly.

“How can you be so sure she isn’t the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body? Is it because she’s not a man? Isn’t it possible for the emperor to reincarnate into a female body?” Lin Shen questioned.

“Of course, that’s not the reason. The Great Emperor doesn’t have a gender; reincarnating into either male or female is possible. I’m just saying Lin Wan cannot be the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body,” Vice Dean An shook his head.

“Why?” Lin Shen found it hard to understand.

“Because Lin Wan lacks something, so she can never be the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body.”

“What is it?”

“Human nature.” Vice Dean An said blandly, “I had long noticed Lin Wan was different. Her human nature is very faint. It is possible she is like me, a fusion of human and smart brain.”

“She’s also an immortal?” Lin Shen was surprised. He hadn’t expected Lin Wan to be an immortal too.

“No, she is not an immortal,” Vice Dean An contradicted Lin Shen’s assumption, “I only said it could be similar to me, but her situation is somewhat different from a true immortal. Even if she really merged with a smart brain, it wasn’t the handiwork of the Celestial Court. It might be a result of research from the Ancient Realm itself. What exact method was used, or whether it’s identical to an immortal, I haven’t examined her sample or calculated it, so it’s unclear.”

“What is certain is that the purpose of the Great Emperor’s reincarnation is to attain human nature, whereas Lin Wan is just the opposite, as her human nature will gradually vanish. So she can never be the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body.”

Lin Shen finally understood why Lin Wan couldn’t be the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body. The emperor’s reincarnation aims to pursue human nature. Without human nature initially, how could it seek what it does not have? It would be redundant to reincarnate.

Lin Shen carefully examined the conjecture. This conjecture was too convoluted; Lin Shen read it several times but couldn’t grasp its meaning.

“This conjecture is indeed the immortals’ weakness. But if you can prove it false, then you are already an emperor and can defeat me without this weakness. If you prove it true, then I have no weakness. So the results are the same: if you can defeat me, it doesn’t matter whether it exists; if not, it’s useless to look,” Vice Dean An said calmly.

“I could just not prove it and assume it’s wrong,” Lin Shen said, looking at the text.
