Chapter 391 The Heart of the Great Way
This time we met, Mo Tiange found that Nie Wushang seemed to be different from the original one.
Although Nie Wushang was bold and decisive, Mo Tiange always felt that her body was filled with a sense of fatigue, as if she had no interest in everything around her, and it didn't even matter whether she was alive or not.
But this time, although she was wandering around aimlessly, she was very excited and full of anger.
Mo Tiange couldn't help asking: "Fellow Daoist Nie, you and I will be separated for a year. Did you encounter any opportunity? Why did you all feel different when you met this time?"
"Oh?" Nie Wushang asked with great interest when he heard her words, "Where is different?"
Mo Tiange turned his head and thought for a while, saying, "It seems that he has begun to enjoy the joy of living."
"..." Nie Wushang was stunned, put away his smile, looked at Mo Tiange with a deep look, "I have to thank fellow Daoist Mo for this."
Mo Tiange wondered: "Thank me what do you do?" Apart from taking her in Arctic Island for three days, she had never done anything to help her. And nothing special happened in those three days, which was enough to change Nie Wushang's concept.
Nie Wushang sighed lightly, looked into the distance, and slowly said, "For so many years, I have always dreamed of leaving Master's control and living a free life. But after going through a lot of hardships, I escaped from the sky to the clouds, but suddenly I found that I didn't know what to do. For more than a hundred years, everything I did was asked by Master. Although I was not willing in my heart, it is undeniable that Master gave me the meaning of living."
Hearing this, Mo Tiange frowned: "What are you saying? You are a human, not a tool, why do you need him to give you the meaning of survival?"
"Fellow Daoist, you don't understand." Nie Wushang shook his head and said, "Your master lets you be free, so you live for yourself, but I am not. Before I leave Master, I can't be considered alone..."
“…”
Nie Wushen smiled and didn't explain it any more. Some things are difficult for people who have not experienced them to understand. Or, the master was too successful, not only manipulated her life, but also suppressed her nature. Therefore, she clearly hated her master, but after leaving him, she felt that she had lost the meaning of survival and was confused.
More than a hundred years have not been too long for a high-level monk, but it is the whole of her life.
"Fellow Daoist," Nie Wushang asked suddenly, "Why do you want to leave Tianji and come to the clouds?"
"..." Mo Tiange was a little difficult to answer. She came to the clouds to see a broader world and to pursue Mo Yaoqing's footsteps. It was hard for her to answer which one was more important. Moreover, she never thought of telling Mo Yaoqing about it to others.
Seeing her face feeling uncomfortable, Nie Wushang waved his hand and said, "You don't have to answer in detail. I know there are some things that are inconvenient to tell outsiders. I'm just wondering, you are a famous family in Tianji, who has been practicing smoothly, and you have a master who loves your disciples as your life. He has just become a Taoist partner with your senior brother. It's the time when the spring breeze is so proud, why do you want to leave Tianji and come to the clouds?"
Nie Wushang thought about this question as early as when the two met again on the Arctic Island, but their relationship was still suspected of enemies, so it was inconvenient to ask each other. Asking this time can also help to solve her confusion over the past year.
When Mo Tiange heard this question, he just looked at her and smiled: "In the eyes of fellow Taoist Nie, what kind of person am I? A famous family, who practices smoothly, has a master and a Taoist couple, should we enjoy the envious eyes of others in the sky? Wait for others to do everything for me?"
"..." Nie Wushang couldn't answer. She felt that Mo Tiange was not such a person, but at Tianji, aren't all female cultivators with superior backgrounds like this? They don't need to bother with their own cultivation path, and their elders and husbands lay the foundation for them...
There was no need for Nie Wushang to answer, Mo Tiange knew what she was thinking, and she said: "If I only enjoy the beauty of my master and senior brother, then even if I become a Nascent Soul, I will not become a great way in the end."
Nie Wushang suddenly turned his head and looked at her, his eyes unabashed for a moment: "Is it a great way?"
"Of course." Mo Tiange puzzled her astonished, "Didn't Fellow Daoist Nie have embarked on the path of immortality, and never thought that one day he would become a great road and ascend to become an immortal?"
"..." Nie Wushang took a deep breath and saluted her solemnly: "It was not until this time that I realized that I underestimated fellow Daoist."
How many monks today still think about these? Yes, all the immortals who have embarked on the path of immortality have changed forever. But after ancient times, the world has changed for tens of thousands of years, and no one has ever ascended to become an immortal. Even the few gods have become immortals. Most monks have died of their desire to become immortals and instead pursue strength and longevity. This is also because of this, there are no more immortals and demons who are incompatible, because no matter whether they are cultivating immortals or demons, the goal they pursue is no longer essentially different.
I don’t know whether it is the depravity of the immortal cultivator or the helplessness of the slim path of immortality.
But today, those who can still adhere to the path of immortality are definitely people with firm hearts and admiration.
Seeing Nie Wushang's face full of solemnity, Mo Tiange laughed: "I am just a monk who has made a pill now. The so-called great way is still far away. The heart of Taoism is just a word. Why should fellow Daoist Nie do this?"
Nie Wushang's face was not smiling, and she said, "If meeting on the Arctic Island, my fellow Taoist only made me feel that there was still some fun to live, then today's fellow Taoist said that I saw a new world. From now on, where will Nie Wushang go, and no longer have to be trapped in the past."
Mo Tiange raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Fellow Daoist Nie, you..."
Nie Wushang looked at the mountains in the distance like gatherings, and the clouds were as angry as the waves. He felt that the world was so vast, why should we abandon the free future for the sake of the darkness of the past? She had never thought about it in the past hundred years, nor did she dare to think about it, but now it is different. She has no restraint and can exist freely in the world. Since this is the case, why can't we pursue the true meaning of Tao? Abandon the aura of the Yuan Demon and become a true immortal cultivator.
After climbing over the Jialing Mountain and entering the North Lin Kingdom to the north, the vast green mountains are covered with a shallow black aura here, which is the demonic energy. The north of the Jialing Mountain is Xingluo City, a demonic realm of the Beilin Kingdom.
Beilin Kingdom is the territory of the demon cultivators in the cloud. They have three great demon kings, each occupying three great demon domains, and there are also seven small demon domains, which are smaller in scale than the three great demon domains, but they also gather a large number of demon cultivators. Xingluo City is one of the seven small demon domains.
Nie Wushang said: "The city lord of Xingluo City is a demon cultivator in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. He is not very strong in the demon realm of Beilin Kingdom, and he is considered a figure."
Mo Tiange nodded to express his understanding. She discovered that the monks in the cloud, whether they are immortal cultivators or demon cultivators, are not so rigorous in their titles. For example, in Tianji, Xuanqing Sect and Zhengfa Sect both follow the tradition of making elixirs as real people and Nascent Soul as Taoist Lord, and the title is also a symbol of identity cultivation. But this is not the case in Yunzhong. Among the Taoist Sect, there are many Nascent Soul cultivators who call themselves real people, which is purely a personal hobby. Among the demon cultivators, there are many who call themselves Demon Lords, and among them, the only ones who are truly famous in Yunzhong are only three great Demon Lords.
Mo Tiange smiled slightly when he thought of this. She remembered the Xuanyue Demon Lord who had met once in Xuecheng that day. Although he was known as the Demon Lord, he was just a elixir monk.
Seeing her expression, Nie Wushang asked curiously: "What's so funny?"
Mo Tiange asked, "Do you still remember that fellow Taoist Jing?"
Nie Wushang was stunned, and his expression immediately became a little uncomfortable: "Fellow Daoist, that matter... he didn't do anything to you in the end, right?"
"Ah?" Mo Tiange was stunned, then knew that she had misunderstood and smiled, "No, what I want to say is not that thing, but I met someone who looks very much like him in the clouds."
"oh?"
Mo Tiange informed her of meeting the Xuanyue Demon Lord and finally said, "When I saw the Xuanyue Demon Lord, I remembered him."
Nie Wushang also smiled when he heard this: "Actually, that fellow Taoist Jing is a bit unreasonable, but he is still reliable. He knew his master's plan that day and resisted fiercely. If it weren't for the master's use of keeping him, he would almost kill him."
But Mo Tiange didn't know about this, and she was surprised: "What happened?"
"Well, you had lost consciousness at that time." Nie Wushen said, "He said that Qin Shoujing is one of the few people he can call him a friend. Although he is romantic, he is unwilling to be sorry for his friends. Moreover, the affairs of men and women should be in love and joyful, so how can he be coerced and become a dirty and mediocre act."
After pausing, Nie Wushang sighed: "I didn't have a good impression of him at first. After this incident, I think he is much cuter than those hypocritical people."
“…”
Seeing Mo Tiange thinking and silently, Nie Wushang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Fellow Daoist, what are you thinking?"
Mo Tiange sighed and said, "If this is true, Senior Brother Shoujing and I are ashamed of him."
"Ah? Could it be that he fell in Tianmo Mountain?"
Mo Tiange shook his head and said, "That's not the case. He also escaped the Tianmo Mountain. But afterwards, he turned against a disciple of the Fuling Sword Master of the Gujian Sect. If I remember correctly, the Fuling Sword Master had an apprentice who was the head of the Gujian Sect. His actions were considered to have offended the Gujian Sect's ruling sect and could not return to the master's sect."
As he said that, Mo Tiange told Nie Wushang about meeting Jing Xingzhi again that day. Jing Xingzhi was injured at that time and could not return to the ancient sword sect, and he didn't know what was going on now.
After hearing this, Nie Wushang said, "Fellow Daoist, what does this matter have to do with you? Even if there is no such thing, will he definitely get any opportunity in Tianmo Mountain? Maybe he can't escape the disaster in Tianmo Mountain and fall directly. Even if he can really get some rare treasures from Tianmo Mountain, he has a long time to have a rift with the Fuling Sword Master lineage, and it will be a matter of time to turn against him. Besides, what a person he is? He has always been unhappy in the Ancient Sword Sect, and I am afraid he has wanted to leave long ago, so why should he worry about him?"
Mo Tiange was stunned and speechless for a while.
Seeing this, Nie Wushang asked, "Am I wrong?"
Mo Tiange sighed and nodded, "No, you are right, I'm thinking a little bit wrong. That fellow Taoist Jing is not a person who needs sympathy."
In fact, there is another point that Mo Tiange didn't say. She found that she was softer than before and would worry about others. Could it be that because she got too much, her feelings were enriched? Is this a good or a bad thing?
When I wrote that chapter yesterday, a bunch of women were talking and watching TV. My condition was poor and my concept was chaotic. I changed it today... (To be continued.
