Gods Vanish on a Cloudy Day
Chapter 15 Using Oneself as a Seed!
"An attack?"
At this moment, Su Zhou was examining the Dragon Serpent Sacrificial Pillar within his personal space.
The spirit marrow essence, condensed from the depths of the earth veins and the boundless qi of the earth veins, inherently possessed an extremely vast and pure spiritual power and the 'earth' attribute sufficient to influence the earth veins.
Steadfast and unmoving as the earth – if such a jade pillar were driven into a place frequently experiencing earthquakes, it could completely suppress the earth's tremors, making earthquakes and even volcanic eruptions gentler and more manageable.
Especially after experiencing the design of numerous formation masters of the New Dynasty, and even the Holy Emperor Ming Zhengde himself, this earth vein sacrificial pillar itself even possessed a certain 'dragon vein' function.
It could gather the spiritual qi of heaven and earth, regulate the feng shui of a place, and continuously settle and develop itself, possessing the characteristics of a partial perpetual motion machine in an environment with abundant spiritual qi.
After driving this Dragon Serpent Jade Pillar into the ground of the central island of his personal space, the earth foundation, which was not particularly solid because Su Zhou himself did not have any earth attribute cultivation methods, immediately received ample power support and rapidly began a new round of settling and strengthening.
—It seems I really should learn a earth attribute divine power or inheritance.
In the personal space, various positive changes occurred due to the appearance of the earth vein sacrificial pillar. Both the Wisdom Tree and the Spirit of Extinction indicated that the circulation of spiritual qi was extremely smooth, making the entire small world more harmonious, and the central island even showed signs of a new round of expansion.
All good things.
Seeing this, Su Zhou thought to himself: "It's not that I have to gather all four elements, or the Five Elements and Five Virtues, but at least I have to ensure the stability of the elemental cycle within my body, so that I can go further."
"Ming Zhengde's Five Virtues Divine Light includes the Virtue of Thick Earth. Perhaps I can ask him for advice on relevant earth-based cultivation methods."
The value of the Dragon Serpent Sacrificial Pillar is immeasurable.
It should be known that what it is currently exerting is essentially only its most superficial function. Its ability to stimulate the vitality of the Tianyuan central earth vein is its most important function.
Su Zhou was not someone who would casually ask others for things. Even if Ming Zhengde originally intended to destroy it, he would not think, 'I figure nobody wants this thing,' and then take it for himself.
It was precisely because he was prepared to help the New Dynasty fight against the gods and demons that he would not hesitate to speak up.
However, just as Su Zhou had roughly placed the New Dynasty in the position of 'ally.'
He sensed Ming Zhengde's suddenly surging anger.
And... the casualties of tens of millions, even nearly a hundred million people.
If this were on Earth, it would be equivalent to the complete annihilation of several medium-sized countries, and large countries would be seriously injured, even collapsing completely!
Immediately, Su Zhou frowned tightly. Standing on the ground, he looked towards the direction of Ming Zhengde with his hands behind his back, and solemnly asked: "Is it the remnants of Zhengyang, or is it a sign from the gods and demons? I don't think the defeated dogs of Zhengyang have the courage to carry out such an attack."
Now, most of the remaining forces of Zhengyang Country had already crossed to the remnants of the Southern Great Continent, licking their wounds. But if they had the courage to launch such an attack, it meant that they definitely had the courage to withstand the anger of Ming Zhengde and even the entire New Dynasty. At that time, what awaited them would inevitably be the ending of being completely crushed into the Southern Nether Sea.
"It's the gods and demons."
Closing his eyes, he remained silent for a long time, and Ming Zhengde calmly replied after calming his mind, "To be precise, there's a high probability it was instructed by the Nine Nether Demon Gods."
"Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid it started planning after I left Zhongzhou and Zhuzhou Zhenren (True Man Zhuzhou) defeated the incarnation of the Nether Darkness Demon God."
Tianyuan Mortal Realm, New Dynasty's Ten Provinces.
Zhongtian Province was where the capital of the New Dynasty, Kyoto, was located. It was the central hub of the country, the center of politics, economy, and culture. To its north were Qinglin and Baishan provinces; to the east were Dongxuan and Canghai provinces; to the west were Chiqiu and Xishan provinces; and to the south were Jinye and Nanze provinces.
In addition, there was also the uninhabited area 'Great Northern Desert Province' located in the northwest, between Qinglin and Chiqiu.
Jinye, Xishan, Chiqiu, Dongxuan... If the Qinglin Province, which had just repelled five god-demon possessors, was added, it could be seen that this was a very obvious all-round attack. The Zhengyang remnants exposed all their hidden cards lurking in the New Dynasty and launched an unprecedented sudden attack.
And the result was also exceptionally successful – the New Dynasty suffered unusually heavy casualties. Except for the complete annihilation in Qinglin, the other areas had no losses at all. All the Zhengyang remnants retreated completely, at most only being exposed and unable to continue lurking.
"It's actually like this?!"
It was not only Su Zhou and Ming Zhengde whose expressions were serious. After hearing these words, both Wang Haitian and the three great artisans’ expressions changed drastically.
It should be known that even during the Five Virtues Zhengyang War of the past, the final death toll did not reach a hundred million due to Ming Zhengde's existence, which led to a complete crushing victory in high-level battles.
Most importantly, the Zhengyang Country side destroyed key facilities, such as various large workshops, metallurgical plants, spirit machine production bases, etc... It could be said that since the founding of the Five Virtues Sect, they had never suffered such severe losses!
"Your Majesty..."
Wang Prefect even looked at Ming Zhengde with some worry.
In his heart, Ming Zhengde's journey had been smooth sailing, winning every battle and overcoming every obstacle. He had never had a record or loss less than a 'small victory.'
Although he felt that His Majesty the Holy Emperor would never lose his composure because of this trivial matter, he was still somewhat worried.
In response, Ming Zhengde, apart from extreme anger and sorrow for the heavy casualties of his people, was far from losing his composure.
After all, he often failed.
He had witnessed more severe casualties and more terrifying death numbers and scenes than now, and more than once.
"So early, could the Nine Nether not hold back?"
Ming Zhengde muttered to himself in his heart.
He knew very well that in the past 30,000 reincarnations, whenever the gods and demons personally intervened and pushed Zhengyang Country to take action, it proved that the estimated line in their hearts had been broken. They decided not to maintain the subtle influence in the dark, but to influence the world with more extreme and oppressive methods.
"Gods and demons fight, and all living beings are chess pieces..."
Xiantian (Celestial Heavens), Jiuyou (Nine Nethers), and the Mortal Realm, the relationship between the three has always been very strange.
Since 450,000 years ago, when the Eastern and Southern Continents suffered misfortune and sank into the Southern Nether Sea and Eastern Profound Sea, the gods and demons could no longer descend to the world at will because of fear of the ominous.
However, the gods and demons were free to come and go between Xiantian and Jiuyou, and could conquer each other.
Until thousands of years ago, in the battles between Xiantian and Jiuyou, Xiantian had always occupied an absolute advantage, Jiuyou eked out a living, and the mortal world was ruled by the immortals and gods with rites and sacrifices. The various races and lands were divided into thousands of countries, and although they fought each other, there were few bloody battles.
But three thousand years ago, the Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Lord, who was born out of nowhere, struck Xiantian, fought with the second generation Heavenly Emperor at the Guixu Burial Ground, and then disappeared together, with a high probability of dying together.
Since then, the situation changed suddenly.
First of all, due to the war between the Heavenly Emperor and the Demon Lord, the Lin, Mao, and Kun three extraterrestrial demon evils were born out of thin air and invaded Xiantian and the Mortal Realm—the power of the demon evils depended on the local situation. The demon evils located in Xiantian were powerful enough to contend with the immortals and gods, and even temporarily entered the central area of the divine realm.
If it were not for the rise of the third generation Xiantian God Emperor Taihao, the Xiantian without the Heavenly Emperor might have been destroyed for the most part. The Jiuyou Demon Land, which had not been invaded, reaped the benefits of the fisherman, reaping a large number of sentient beings' minds and souls, and also obtained many remnants of the souls of Xiantian immortals and gods.
Therefore, the third generation Great Desire Heavenly Demon King was born, and the power comparison between Xiantian and Jiuyou changed from a complete crushing to a balanced confrontation, resisting each other.
However, only three thousand years had passed, and the results of the battle between the Heavenly Emperor and the Demon Lord were still vivid in his mind. The gods and demons were alert to this, and they had never carried out a large-scale all-out war again.
Therefore, they turned their attention to the Tianyuan Mortal Realm.
In the past, the eyes of the gods and demons were locked on each other, but now, they have found in this mortal world that they abandoned, the possibility and key to perhaps once and for all, completely defeat the old opponent.
Ming Zhengde knew it very well.
Behind Zhengyang Country were the celestial gods and demons. They signed various contracts with Zhengyang Country, provided assistance, and turned it into the number one country in the world, becoming a tool for them to achieve their goals.
But neither the gods nor the demons had ever thought that the Five Virtues Sect he led would rise against the general trend of the world, and directly defeat Zhengyang Country with a majestic momentum.
In fact, the Five Virtues Sect also received gifts from Xiantian in the early stage. That was Xiantian's way of cultivating a force that could pose a threat to Zhengyang Country.
But who could have known that after the Five Virtues Zhengyang War, the leader Nan Zhengkai was severely injured and fled in panic, and the elite of Zhengyang Country was completely destroyed. The small force that was originally only used to contain Zhengyang became the master of Zhongzhou in one fell swoop.
However, at that time, before the Jiuyou, the main supporter of Zhengyang Country, could speak, Xiantian directly sent envoys to request peace talks between the two sides. The New Dynasty occupied the land of Nine Provinces, while Zhengyang nested in Baishan.
Jiuyou, however, went against the norm, supported the New Dynasty, and insisted on completely destroying Zhengyang Country.
And the result was unexpected – the New Dynasty completely defeated Zhengyang, but let them go to the Southern Great Continent, and reached an agreement with Xiantian, achieving a de facto alliance, while Jiuyou was excluded and left.
The reason was simple: The Xiantian immortals and gods didn't care how strong the human race in the mortal world was. They only required the mortal world to obey their order and cooperate with them in implementing some plans. The Jiuyou Heavenly Demons, however, intended to invade a land of demonic soil in the mortal world and did not allow the fear between heaven and earth to disappear, or the people's livelihood to progress.
Ming Zhengde naturally would not choose Jiuyou.
In response, Jiuyou, unwilling to accept this, probed several times, intending to invade demonic soil in the mortal world, but this action was resolutely repelled by the New Dynasty in cooperation with Xiantian.
But now...
Ming Zhengde raised his head and looked up at the stars in the sky, his eyes deep.
Facing such a rampant attack planned by Jiuyou behind the scenes, Xiantian did not react at all, nor did anyone give any warning. Knowing all this long ago, they did not say a word, but just watched everything calmly.
"The mortal world belongs to the mortal world, and the gods and demons belong to the gods and demons... How 'rule-abiding' it is."
Withdrawing his gaze from the numerous stars representing the celestial gods, Ming Zhengde at this moment actually knew very well what would happen next in his heart.
"Zhuzhou Zhenren resisted the descent of gods and demons, and then defeated the avatar of the Nether Darkness God and Demon, causing Jiuyou to feel the crisis and decide to start taking action in advance... Soon, after this raid, Jiuyou will know Xiantian's attitude, and then urge several small countries and Zhengyang remnants as chess pieces, using mortals as tools to build demonic soil in the Tianyuan Mortal Realm."
"Then, it will be the invasion of the demon kingdom, and Xiantian will not take action temporarily. They will wait for my request for help."
Requesting for help will require paying a price.
The immortals and gods will require Ming Zhengde to offer his own body, or the bodies of his descendants – the body that awakened the Five Virtues Divine Light great divine power and has a trace of phoenix blood!
Not only that, they will also require the New Dynasty to take action to wipe out the various divine bird races in the mortal world and seize all the phoenix bloodlines hidden in their races!
—In the Tianyuan Mortal Realm, the most powerful individual entities are the many divine birds.
The reason why the gods and demons want to cultivate great powers like Zhengyang Country and the New Dynasty in the human world is to allow these great powers to replace them, who cannot descend to the world at will, to conquer the human world, wipe out many divine bird races, and collect phoenix bloodlines.
This step will naturally result in countless deaths and injuries. If a divine bird in the True Person realm takes action, it will be a celestial phenomenon, causing devastation.
For this reason, as part of the 'fair contract,' the celestial gods will allow Ming Zhengde's soul to ascend and become a new celestial god, the 'Central Ziwei Star Lord.'
Once, when the Northern Border Taibai Pass was about to be defeated by the continuously emerging demon army, Ming Zhengde, unwilling to let the Ten Provinces of the New Dynasty fall into endless war again, and the people be displaced, tried to seek help from Xiantian.
Indeed, the New Dynasty army, blessed by the celestial gods, quickly swept away all the demon armies and destroyed the demonic soil that was still under construction in one fell swoop.
And in the end, Ming Zhengde was indeed taken to Xiantian and became a new celestial god, 'Central Ziwei Star Lord.'
But after that, he was suppressed by the Taihao God Emperor, falling into a state of being conscious but unable to move.
[Ziwei Star Lord is too attached to the human world, so let’s grind his temper.]
[Let him observe reincarnation for five thousand years. When everything in the mortal world has turned to dust, he will understand that everything except for the immortal gods and demons is fleeting, and then become one of us.]
The God Emperor said so.
But unfortunately, Ming Zhengde would not forget.
After breaking free from the suppression, the first thing he did was to swing his sword at the God Emperor who was high in the center of the myriad stars.
The vast sword light spanned the sky. Even the sentient beings in the Tianyuan Mortal Realm saw the sword light that eclipsed the stars and was comparable to the great sun!
But at that time, the power of the God Emperor surpassed that of the gods and demons.
[The past Ziwei Star Lords were all like this, why can't you understand?]
[Disrespect, this is a capital crime.]
The vast divine thought swept across, and the entire Xiantian Divine Realm was transformed by the thoughts of the Taihao God Emperor.
Then... it was another reincarnation.
"Whether it is relying on Xiantian or Jiuyou, this path is impassable. The gods and demons do not care about the survival of sentient beings at all. They all have their own purposes and regard the people as grass and livestock."
"The sentient beings of the mortal world can only rely on themselves."
In order to combat this situation, Ming Zhengde had actually summarized a corresponding plan in the process of these dozens of failures and rebirths recently – that is, to build the Northern Border Taibai Pass as early as possible and forcibly block the footsteps of the Jiuyou demon army.
In this way, after persisting for a few years, Xiantian would have to take action because the demonic soil was expanding and about to truly take shape, and assist the New Dynasty in defeating the demon army.
Whether it was the construction plan tilted towards Northern Ridge City, the Great Northern Ridge District, or the entire Qinglin Province and Baishan Province, it was all prepared for this step. That's why Ming Zhengde sent his confidant Wang Haitian to this place, a small city with less than a million people.
In addition to supervising the construction of the earth vein sacrificial pillar, it was also to ensure that the construction of this wartime logistics area did not go wrong.
However, this plan had a large number of flaws due to the appearance of 'Zhuzhou.'
Whether it was the early Jiuyou probe, the completely destroyed Northern Ridge mining area, or the unusable earth vein sacrificial pillar, it all represented that the plan had failed for the most part.
Ming Zhengde was not afraid of failure.
Because every time, he tried his best to live, tried his best to save the world, and return peace to the world.
If he failed, if he could be reborn, it would just be trying out a mistake, so that he could go better and smoother in the future.
Even if he could not be reborn and really died, he would not have too many regrets, because he had really done everything he could do.
But... the appearance of Zhuzhou made Ming Zhengde feel a little uneasy and confused at this time.
——Whenever there is a great tribulation, there must be omens. Thirty thousand generations of rebirth, an unimaginably long time, and the appearance of Zhuzhou, does it portend that this is my last life?
——Even if it is not, will Zhuzhou appear in the next life?
Ming Zhengde knew it very well.
The existence of Zhuzhou can undoubtedly be a change beyond the expectations of the gods and demons. His power is so strong that he can contend with the gods and demons, and he also has a divine weapon with the potential to advance to a Dao Soldier – if he helps, he can definitely overcome many dangers and break through many difficulties!
Even, there was a premonition, a premonition that arose from 30,000 reincarnations in the dark, he could feel that if he was lucky enough this time, then he might really be able to complete his goal plan!
——Block the Jiuyou demon army, connect the Tianyuan earth veins, start the Five Continents Five Virtues Sheltering World Great Array, completely cut off the influence of Xiantian and Jiuyou, sever the connection between heaven and earth, and return peace to the Tianyuan mortal world!
But... is that perfect even then?
Because of his own mistakes, tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people died. Can such a life be considered perfect?
Thinking of this, Ming Zhengde could not help but feel confused.
The damage caused by the Zhengyang remnants could be completely prevented. You only need to know their invasion direction in advance and arrange for corresponding True Persons to start the great array to block them in advance, and they would never be able to succeed.
If Zhuzhou could continue to appear in the next life, then he had the confidence to ensure that the Zhengyang Country's attack would fail while ensuring the existing situation, so as not to cause such terrible casualties.
But if Zhuzhou does not appear in the next life... he also did not know whether he could achieve the final goal of returning peace to the sentient beings of the Tianyuan mortal world.
"What should I do to achieve perfection."
"If I can't get a perfect ending, what is the significance of my persistence in the previous 30,000 reincarnations?"
Thinking so confusedly, Ming Zhengde could not help but turn his head and looked at Su Zhou on the other side.
The young man's eyes were calm, like a mirror, reflecting all the innermost thoughts.
However, the possibility that he harbored was so chaotic.
Even after more than millions of years of reincarnation, Ming Zhengde's Dao heart was tempered to be more resilient than the gods and demons.
But in the face of this 'chaotic anomaly' that had never appeared in the 'perfect plan process,' he still found it difficult to calm down.
"Sorry, I was a little out of control."
Realizing that his situation was a bit wrong, Ming Zhengde sighed again: "I originally planned to stay with Zhuzhou Zhenren in Northern Ridge for a while longer, migrate the residents of Northern Ridge, and then return to Zhongzhou together – but now it seems that I am afraid that I will have to take a step first."
"It's okay."
Su Zhou slowly retracted his Divine Power of No Thoughts.
Although he could hardly hear any sounds because the other party's state of mind was incomparably harmonious and his strength realm was almost the same as his own.
But because Ming Zhengde's heart revealed a trace of flaw at the end, he roughly understood some of the thoughts of this Holy Emperor.
Therefore, the young man nodded expressionlessly and slowly: "The information you gave me just now already includes the coordinates of Zhongzhou Kyoto. I will go later."
"Please forgive me. Haitian, you can only plan the migration route yourself later. Be careful not to be attacked by possible Zhengyang remnants!"
Hearing this, Wang Prefect naturally responded immediately. Then, everyone present saw that Ming Zhengde was blooming with divine light, shining in the sky like the great sun, transforming into a dazzling five-colored star, and flying away at a speed of nearly ten thousand miles in an instant.
"Alas."
Although the Tianyuan Mortal Realm was round and square, it was surprisingly slightly curved. Watching the Five Virtues Divine Light disappear over the horizon, Su Zhou sighed.
This sigh was both for the innocent people who sacrificed under the Zhengyang Country's attack, and also because of a trace of disappointment in his heart.
"Sure enough, this Ming Zhengde is a reincarnator."
"Moreover, it is the type that can be reincarnated multiple times."
"He also truly has the characteristics of a perfect family member – that is, pursuing perfection in one life through cycle after cycle."
Su Zhou was not surprised by this... after all, the strong are vortexes. His power was so strong that it would naturally attract the most important points in this world, such as the approach of gods and demons and perfect family members.
He even dared to say that the many divine bird races were probably getting the news at this time and were beginning to be confused about what kind of bird Zhuzhou was.
Ming Zhengde's achievements were indeed worthy of his identity as a reincarnator. He was able to forcefully create a human paradise like the New Dynasty, where the people trusted him and their hearts were booming upward, from the desperate situation of divine and demonic oppression and the loss of virtue in the world.
This awakening of wanting to create a better future, time after time of reincarnation, was truly in line with the conditions of the 'Dao of Innovation'!
For this reason, Su Zhou would help him, fight against the gods and demons, and bring peace to the sentient beings of the Tianyuan Mortal Realm.
But... when he sensed that Ming Zhengde was beginning to worry about whether his current situation could be considered 'perfect,' and a trace of confusion was born in his heart, unsure of how to choose the future, he was a little... disappointed.
No, it could not be said to be disappointment – he, Su Zhou, was an outsider, not a family member of those dead people, so how could he be worthy of feeling disappointed in this Holy Emperor who diligently reincarnated and was unwilling to sacrifice even a bit of the people?
At most, there was a kind of disharmony in his heart.
If the people were sacrificed, Su Zhou would go to the disaster area as soon as possible and try to recover some of the dead souls as much as possible.
If it was his fault, he would bear it. If he could collect the souls and enter the electronic underworld to save them, then he would save them – at that time, after he became stronger, whether he let them become residents of the underworld or resurrected them, would it be very difficult to do?
As a mortal immortal god, reversing life and death, recreating human bodies... doing such things was a matter of course, right?
If you make a mistake, you have to admit it, and then try to recover and change the mistake.
In fact, pinning your hopes on the next restart and wanting to achieve perfection was not a wrong choice... if you can, then why not?
The wrong thing was being hesitant and indecisive, and therefore confused.
Because of Zhuzhou, that is, his own existence.
Su Zhou could see that Ming Zhengde was confused.
Therefore, he was a little helpless.
"Yala, I roughly understand why you and destiny and perfection have such a relationship."
Withdrawing his gaze from the direction in which Ming Zhengde disappeared, Su Zhou closed his eyes and talked to Yala in his soul space. He said calmly: "The path of destiny is completely opposite to you, just like a heretic, with absolutely no similarities – he sets a final ending from the beginning. No matter how chaotic, imperfect, or messy the process is, the world line will converge to the end of destiny."
"And perfection prepares countless opportunities to start over, giving countless possibilities – in this respect, he is so similar to you – but in the end, everything will become a pursuit of absolute success. They will eliminate all the suffering in the process and try to bring the trajectory of destiny to the realm of perfection."
"Then, it becomes a 'repetition of yesterday'."
——Repeating the same things as yesterday, following the same habits as yesterday, most of the time, rebirth is such a thing.
Because of the experience of the reincarnation world, Su Zhou knew this very well.
"Those who are completely different are certainly mortal enemies, and there will naturally be a death match when they meet, but more likely, the two sides will basically not be able to meet."
"On the contrary, there are existences that are similar but different, but because of the similarity, they can try to fight for and change, so they fight frequently, like mortal enemies!"
Su Zhou could not blame Ming Zhengde for not doing well enough.
He had already done very well, very well, good enough.
It was already very good, almost perfect.
——But does absolute perfection really exist in the world?
Neither 'chaos' nor 'innovation'... would absolutely admit this.
If you blindly pursue perfection in all details, then you will only stagnate in place and never reach the front.
Therefore, this was the 'disharmony on the road'.
"Zhuzhou Zhenren, I am going to lead the officials of Northern Ridge to migrate the masses. I can't accompany you for the time being."
Just as Su Zhou closed his eyes and meditated and communicated with Yala, Wang Haitian suppressed the shock and anger in his heart about the large-scale attack on the New Dynasty by the Zhengyang remnants, and bid farewell to Su Zhou.
His tone was a bit worried, because according to the current situation, it was difficult to say whether the Zhengyang remnants and the Jiuyou demon gods would launch a second attack – so the people should be transferred to safe state capitals as soon as possible.
"We also need to leave first and make some more preparations for reforging the divine weapon!"
The three great artisans also spoke to say goodbye. They also had important matters related to the Blade of Extinction that needed to be done.
"Go ahead and be careful."
In response, Su Zhou opened his eyes. He raised his hand, and a blue Arhat seed was held in his palm. In the next moment, the Arhat seed condensed, and when the young man retracted his hand, a Great Zhou Tian Arhat Seed transformation had already taken shape.
Su Zhou's transformations had no self-awareness. They were all controlled by the divine soul he left behind: "My other transformations are not very useful for migration. This Arhat Seed transformation can help you migrate the people, and if you encounter a strong enemy, it can also protect you for a while until my main body arrives."
"Thank you, Zhenren!" Seeing this, Wang Haitian was overjoyed. After saying goodbye to Su Zhou, he went to Northern Ridge City with the Arhat Seed transformation.
Soon, only Su Zhou was left in the entire Northern Ridge Mountains.
And at this time, the voice of the Snake Spirit slowly sounded.
"Your guess is absolutely correct."
"The struggle between great existences is not actually about how far the compatibility is – completely opposite existences are indeed mortal enemies among mortal enemies, but what is the point of arguing with a guy who is destined to be unable to be convinced, like that demented destiny?"
"So on the contrary, it is the existences that are similar in some aspects and can try to persuade and convert each other... that will produce the correct war."
At this point, Yala obviously did not intend to continue this topic.
He was lying on the branches of the Wisdom Tree, and asked somewhat lazily: "So, facing the current situation – facing this world of lost virtue and unreasonable gods and demons, Su Zhou, what are you going to do to solve it?"
"To help the Holy Emperor who is pursuing perfection and promote his possibly feasible 'plan'?"
"It is naturally good that he has his own blessing."
Nodding slightly, and then shaking his head, Su Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly: "But how can I help him? Am I going to handle government affairs? Coordinate the relationship between Xiantian and Jiuyou, secretly prepare some grand plans that can shock the world?"
"Even if I am a genius, I can never do better than Ming Zhengde, who has been reborn many times."
"Naturally, I have my own methods to solve these messy things."
"Oh?"
Hearing these words, Yala suddenly became energetic. He asked with great curiosity: "What kind of method is it?"
In response, Su Zhou chuckled: "Then first, we need to understand where the root cause of the problem in this world lies."
"In my opinion, the reason why the Tianyuan Mortal Realm cannot give birth to the roots of gods and demons is not actually in spirituality, but in lifespan."
"If the lifespan is too short, it is difficult to think about the long term. How can short-sighted people, cultivators who worry about their lifespan in this life, think about the vastness of the world and the thinking of immortals and gods?"
"Forcing people to the point of desperation can certainly allow some geniuses to achieve results comparable to gods and demons, but it cannot allow many ordinary people to become the cornerstone of True Persons and even gods and demons – this is the real problem in this world."
Saying this, Su Zhou stretched out his hand, and five fingers as white as jade, but stronger and more flexible than steel, were spread out. A breath full of vitality was floating in the young man's palm.
This breath was rotating, transforming into the appearance of branches, leaves, and trunks. It derived veins and qi roots in the air, as if it wanted to take root in the atmosphere and absorb the spiritual qi and nutrients in the world.
Su Zhou closed his five fingers and grasped this breath. When he opened it again, a thumb-sized crystal stone emitting a crystal clear amber-like green-brown luster appeared in his palm.
The breath of the sacred tree began to spread.
"Undying roots, immortal leaves, this is the principle of the sacred tree."
"Although the newly born sacred tree is difficult to plant on the land of this world, who said that the sacred tree can only grow on the ground?"
"How can the sacred tree be such an inconvenient thing!"
Saying this, the young man's tone carried a subtle smile: "Heaven and earth have no spirits, the sacred tree grows on its own."
"Use oneself as a seed, bloom the flower of longevity!"
"Since this earth absorbs lifespan, then let it absorb it – I want to see whether the lifespan of the sacred tree is longer, or the absorption power of this earth vein is stronger!"
