Shen Yue, upon entering the Emperor's Foundation, immediately sensed its strangeness.
By comparing his understanding of the world with this realm, he quickly discovered that the Emperor's Foundation was similar to a heaven of thoughtlessness but with sentience.
In this place, thoughts transform into seeds, and when these seeds sprout consciousness, they give rise to endless causes and conditions.
Pei Mingcui was fixated on saving Li Xuanba, coupled with the covert actions of the Female Cultivator, drawing Li Xuanba's consciousness into this realm. Their intertwined obsessions spawned endless entanglements.
The unending tribulations of Hell parallel this process—fixated greed leads to anger for resolution, yet it plunges one into endless suffering. The experience in the heaven of thoughtlessness with sentience is somewhat different from that in Hell.
Hell is obsessed with anger, the heaven of thoughtlessness with sentience is obsessed with delusion.
