The Absolute One fell silent for a moment.
But it quickly found a new argument.
"Even if they can influence each other, the gap in abilities is an objective fact."
"The lifespan, energy, and cognitive abilities of higher-dimensional beings far surpass those of lower-dimensional beings."
"A five-dimensional being can live for billions of years, while a human can only live for a century."
"A five-dimensional being can process trillions of pieces of information simultaneously, while the speed of human thought is not even one hundred-millionth of theirs."
"How can such a gap be bridged? Must higher-dimensional beings lower themselves to accommodate lower-dimensional ones?"
This argument was sharper, striking even more directly at the heart of the matter.
Because the disparity in ability was an objective fact that could not be denied.
The wavering within the network became even more apparent.
Even some higher-dimensional beings began to doubt—perhaps equality truly was nothing more than an ideal, impossible to achieve in reality.
But Lin Ye's response was unexpected.
"You're right," he admitted. "The gap in ability does exist."
"A five-dimensional being's lifespan, energy, and cognitive abilities all far surpass those of humans."
"But have you ever considered what they have lost?"
The Absolute One sneered. "Lost? Higher-dimensional beings possess everything. What could they possibly lose?"
"Urgency," Lin Ye said. "When you have billions of years to live, time loses its meaning."

"You can try countless times, because failure does not matter."
"But humans are different."
His voice grew more forceful. "Humans only have a century to live, so every moment is precious."
"Every choice matters, and every action is poured full of passion."
"This 'density of life,' this 'intensity of existence,' is something no higher-dimensional
