Chapter two hundred and seventy-eight the past of the ancestors
This paragraph was too conflicting with Lou Wuchen's understanding, but he did not refute it loudly, but listened silently.
"...But one day, an accident happened." Taoist Bai Zhu said with bitterness and regret in his eyes, "I was addicted to the study of magic, and one day I suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with our skills."
Lou Wuchen's heart skipped a beat.
"I found that the spiritual energy that our practice brought seemed to be less than what was theoretically expected." Taoist Bai Zhu recalled, "At first I thought I had made a mistake, but after repeated verifications and repeated discussions with Sister Xiu and the others,
After discussing it, we finally confirmed——"
"There is a backdoor in the exercises we practice. During each practice, a part will be intercepted and sent to the source of the spiritual energy network: where the master is!"
Lou Wuchen had mixed feelings in his heart and asked in a complicated mood: "So, seniors, just-"
"No, it's not!" Taoist Bai Zhu finally became a little panicked and waved his hands firmly to deny, "I admit that we were a little shocked and shocked at the time, but we never had the treasonous idea of killing our master because of this! In the final analysis, we were a little shocked and shocked.
, Everything we have is given by Master, even if Master really uses us to collect part of the spiritual energy for himself, what does it matter?"
"It's just, it's just... At that time, a few of us were just on the verge of advancing to the next level. We were just a little bit closer to gaining new powers, but our cultivation had stagnated and the growth was extremely slow. We couldn't help but think: If there were
With this much spiritual energy, can we be promoted?"
"But none of us dared to ask Master: Can you give us the real Kung Fu? No one dared, no one dared. In the end, we discussed it over and over again, and finally decided - to steal it!"
"Really, we really just wanted to take advantage of Master's seclusion to steal the possible real skills." Taoist Bai Zhu recalled painfully, "Finally, after several discussions, we sneaked into Master's retreat.
Dongfu, I want to find the real technique."
"But in Master's cave, we couldn't find the exercises we expected, but we unexpectedly found something else - a crystal ball filled with spiritual energy connected by a spiritual guidance system.
"
Taoist Bai Zhu's voice paused here, and the eyes of the other Taoists also dropped, as if they were also caught in long-lasting memories, and the woods became silent for a while.
"At that moment, we all realized in unison: This is spiritual energy, this is us, this is the spiritual energy intercepted by the countless disciples of the original immortal sect that we preached!"
"This thought came to our minds: If we can't find the technique, why not just get ready-made spiritual energy? What's more, this is our spiritual energy in the first place?"
————————————————————
Lou Wuchen didn't know what expression he should use.
He once heard a similar story from Yun Hengguang. Of course, there are some decisive differences between these two stories that are separated by more than ten thousand years, but at least they have one thing in common.
——That means they all end in tragedy.
"...The moment we finally made up our minds and reached out to grab the crystal ball, the most shocking thing happened to us." Taoist Bai Zhu opened his eyes wide, as if the long-ago scene was still vividly engraved in his vision.
"The door of Master's retreat room opened - Master, who was supposed to be in deep retreat, isolated from all perceptions, suddenly appeared in front of us."
"I have never seen Master's expression like that, and I have never heard Master's tone of terror. He said in a hollow voice that seemed to have lost all emotion..."
-Put it down.
-Put it down.
-Put it down!
"Unprecedented fear gripped me, and then I...ran away. I shouldn't have run away, but the instinct to escape after making a mistake was discovered dominated our hearts at that moment, allowing us to make the worst decision
.”
"I realized in the next moment: Ah, we shouldn't have escaped. We are as weak as unweaned babies in front of Master. Escape is simply a joke. Kneel down and admit your mistakes. Maybe there is a glimmer of hope - probably
The next moment, we will be knocked to the ground by Master's spell."
"... But when the next moment came, the end I expected did not come. On the contrary, contrary to all of our expectations, Master fell down extremely suddenly - falling next to the empty crystal ball stand, at the extreme
In a short period of time...it turned into nothingness."
Taoist Bai Zhu lowered his head and remained silent for a long time. Lou Wuchen wondered if Taoist Bai Zhu had fallen into the same stunned silence when faced with the sudden disappearance of Taoist ancestors so long ago.
"...Later, in Master's retreat room, we found the original goal of our trip: the truly perfect Kung Fu. It was prominently placed on Master's desk, with a letter left by Master next to it.
Master probably never thought that we would sneak into his cave. He happily said in the letter..." There was finally a tremor in Taoist Bai Zhu's voice, "... saying that everything is over and the spiritual energy is gone.
If enough is collected, his mission will finally be completed, the interrupted future will be continued, infinite possibilities will be connected into this narrow placenta, and we can be free to create a better tomorrow - with his blessings.
"
"——That's enough!" The short-haired woman stepped out angrily, tears streaming down her cheeks, but she didn't realize it and fiercely grabbed Taoist Bai Zhu's collar, "You called
We leave marks just to make us accept the original torture again? Just to remind us how much sin we have committed? This is your purpose, this is the treasure you call leaving behind? You, him, mother—
—”
A pair of hands gently caressed the short-haired woman's arm, which made her lose all her strength. She let go of Bai Zhu Taoist and burst into tears. Several legends who created the Immortal Sect looked at her silently behind her. At the beginning, they
Some are practicing like crazy, trying to reach the realm of Taoist ancestors to complete the creation that they destroyed; some have searched the whole world, trying to find people who have the same innate Taoist body as Taozu; some are working hard to manage immortals
The sect is accumulating spiritual energy, hoping that when Dao Ancestor or someone like Dao Ancestor appears again in the future, he can directly possess enough spiritual energy to create the world...
But they all failed.
"...That's not the case." Taoist Bai Zhu straightened his collar and regained his firm look, "I know that we have never come out of this shadow. We all face ourselves with this huge regret.
Dead - but today, we can be freed."
Taoist Bai Zhu turned around and pointed at Lou Wuchen: "You haven't discovered yet that... he has the Master's aura on him?"
————————————————————
Innate Taoist body!
Lou Wuchen finally realized it.
The opening of this illusion was not because the eight secret treasures collided together, but because the eight secret treasures collided next to him!
"!You mean..."
"Well, although in this illusion he only shows his origin and not his cultivation, he has the same Taoist aura as Master!" Taoist Bai Zhu's eyes sparkled with hope.
Light, "And if you think about it, what do our respective sets of eight treasures represent? It means that our descendants have probably eliminated the differences and barriers between us and achieved unity. This means-"
Taoist Bai Zhu turned around and looked at him with an almost pious look.
Guang looked at Lou Wuchen: "You are the innate Taoist body we expected, right? You have integrated the Immortal Sect and eliminated the differences and barriers we left, right? You have been promoted to the most mysterious realm of Taoism, completed
Is it right to finish Master’s unfinished creation of the world?”
"..."
Faced with this series of questions, Lou Wuchen didn't know how to answer them for a moment.
Tell them that the truth is completely opposite. Their descendants have long since disappeared and died, withered away until there are only three or two left? Tell them that they are not from the Immortal Sect, and their cultivation level is not to mention the Taoist realm.
Haven't they all arrived yet? Tell them that in this world, spiritual energy has been wasted to the point that it is not even enough for the creation of the world?
Lou Wuchen couldn't say anything. Facing these silent and blazing gazes, and facing these obsessions from eternity ago, he found that he could not be so ruthless as to shatter their hopes.
——Even knowing that they can be regarded as the culprits of almost everything.
After a long time, Lou Wuchen finally spoke.
"...I am indeed an innate Taoist body."
He recalled his goal in his mind and strengthened his will again.
I will advance to the realm of transformation. I will make up for the shortcomings of the failure of creation. I will find a way forward. I will save this world.
——Then they were converted into tenses and turned into language.
"...I have been promoted to the realm of transformation."
"...I made up for the shortcomings of the failure of creation."
The affirmative statement turned the distant vision into a tangible image, and it seemed to have become part of reality the moment it was spoken. In the process, a wonderful confidence quietly grew from the bottom of Lou Wuchen's heart: he can do it.
If you can do it, you will definitely do it!
"...I found a way forward."
"...I saved the world!"
At this time, a strong wind suddenly blew up, blowing away all the white mist in the forest. When Lou Wuchen came back to his senses, he realized that in the few short sentences just now, he was completely enchanted, and all the words were blown away.
His attention was completely devoted to it. And this state also brought some kind of strange appeal. Although it was just a few dry and even boring sentences, it made several Taoists believe it without any doubt. Maybe it is this world
The most unbelievable scene in ten thousand years has appeared: several Taoists, who are the strongest people in this world, some knelt down unconsciously, some covered their faces with their hands and sat down on the ground, and some cried in pairs.
, unexpectedly burst into tears and burst into tears.
"It really came true..."
"Finally, finally..."
"Our sins..."
"Thank you, thank you..."
Several Taoists gave Lou Wuchen what was almost the most respectful gift. Lou Wuchen originally planned to stop this thank you for lying, but looking at their firm eyes and the illusion that had begun to dissipate slightly, he finally did not.
action.
After the ceremony, the gentle senior sister-like woman looked at Taoist Bai Zhu with emotion, "Is this... the treasure you mentioned?"
However, to her surprise, Taoist Bai Zhu shook his head in the negative: "No, this is just a prerequisite. Only above this can I take out the real treasure."
In the shocked eyes of the gentle woman, Taoist Bai Zhu sent out a stream of smoke that was so faint that it was almost imperceptible. Then he waved his hand suddenly and made a long gash in his own phantom body. Bai
Zhu Daoren's illusory body quickly became weak, flickering like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any time, while the faint smoke he offered solidified a little, and a monk whose appearance could not be seen faintly emerged.
Figure!
"This, this!" The gentle woman couldn't believe her eyes, "Could this be -"
Chapter completed!
