Sealing

The instant demonic qi surged up, Li Qi immediately realized that this was not the answer he wanted.

But... once an answer emerged, only another answer could suppress it.

It was like an equation yielding an unbelievable answer—like an imaginary number appearing within the realm of real numbers, or calculating the side length of a triangle and getting an irrational number.

No matter how inconceivable it was, it was still an answer. You could throw the person who calculated it into the Aegean Sea, or tie them to a stake and burn them to death... but the answer had already appeared.

Only another answer could defeat an answer.

Li Qi could not find a second answer, at least not for the moment.

So he could only slump to the ground as the demonic qi grew ever more blazing. This answer... was far too close to the demonic path.

I cannot understand others, nor can others understand me. Therefore, distancing oneself from this world is only natural, because it is not truly estrangement—it is merely going with the flow.
