Chapter 2080 Examining the Heart
?When seeing himself and Huan pass by some immortals very close to them but not discovered by them, Meng Xiang felt a little curious and didn't know how Huan did it. At least he didn't discover the mystery, but he soon felt relieved. He thought of her racial talent and realm cultivation.
Because she didn't know where their destination was, Meng Xiang chose not to speak, but just let himself follow Huan. He believed that she should be able to handle things well, because judging from her numerous performances, he should have a relatively good understanding of Xingxu and Star Beetle.
Although Meng Xiang has not yet figured out what the blue sand particles that were obtained from that blue world are, this does not prevent him from making a judgment that they are closely related to their purpose this time. It can even be said that it is the key to knowing the star beetles, especially the alien species among them. Otherwise, she would not have spent more than two months on this matter if they needed time.
At the same time, by explaining the relevant contents of Star Ruins and Star Beetles to him, Meng Xiang also came to a conclusion that only she knew about the blue sand particles that could help them find Star Beetles, at least only a few people, including her, would have known this method. Otherwise, this method would not have become popular yet, and Huan would not have seemed so confident.
From the lines of Huan, Meng Xiang could feel Huan's confidence in those blue sand particles, as if he had used them. Of course, when there were enough numbers, they would definitely find the star beetles. If there were many people who knew about the blue sand particles and used them, the star beetles might have been completely extinct.
Meng Xiang's special experience along the way told him that the difficulty of many things is not the matter itself, but the lack of understanding of things. If you can have a detailed understanding of things, the difficulty of solving them should be reduced a lot. This time they encountered this time, the only difference is that Huan knows about things, but he knows very little.
This means that Huan knows how to do things. She can respond in a targeted manner according to the specific situation, which greatly reduces the difficulty of solving problems. She knows nothing, just like a person in the dark, the best reaction should be to stand still, wait for Huan to give him an order and act according to her actions. This is possible to promote the development of the matter, otherwise he can only make trouble.
After understanding his positioning, Meng Xiang became quieter, and naturally he no longer had the urge to ask about the content related to Fantasy, and was ready to passively accept her execution. He would think and do this because his mind was always very clear and understood that the relationship between him and Fantasy was not as close as it seemed.
If he turns into another person, he may miscalculate their relationship because of the illusion, and think that their relationship is already very close, thus ignoring some details of their relationship. But Meng Xiang will not, because he always remembers what her original intention of betting on him was to gain something from him one day, which is very utilitarian. Once anything is involved in utilitarianism and interests, the role of emotion in it will be minimal.
Of course, Meng Xiang could also feel it. As time goes by, Huan's attitude towards him is also changing, and his utilitarianism seems to have decreased a lot, but the fundamental purpose has not changed essentially. In other words, the emotional foundation between them is still quite shallow. It is very unreliable, and some inappropriate actions are enough to destroy it.
From the bottom of my heart, Meng Xiang is willing to maintain the relationship between him and Huan, and the emotional factors are more effective, because he always believes that although interests can bring together some people with the same or similar purposes, this kind of alliance is very fragile. It may collapse due to conflicts of interests at any time, or even turning against each other, which is easy to happen. In this case, the party in a relatively weak position seems more dangerous and may be sacrificed when facing choices.
Meng Xiang was also worried that he would become the sacrificed party. Although he was very confident in himself and set his goal very high, he wanted to make himself stronger than Huan. If he could achieve this goal, he would be on the strong side, but he also knew that he was only a saint immortal now. Not to mention becoming stronger than Huan, it would be a very difficult thing to become an ancestor immortal. Even if he could get what he wanted, it would still take a long way to go, and it would take time to walk this path.
He did not want him to have problems during this period, especially to reduce the possibility of Huan sacrificing him. You must know that before he has the ability to protect himself in the face of the Heavenly Dao, his situation will always be very dangerous. However, in his opinion, these dangers all come from outside and are relatively easy to defend, while Huan is relatively familiar with him. If she decides to deal with him or sacrifice him, he will be really dangerous, and he naturally does not want this situation to happen.
This is the sorrow of the weak! Meng Xiang blamed his caution on his weakness, which increased his decision and urgency to become stronger to a certain extent. However, he still has more benefits than disadvantages to him because even immortals want to achieve great achievements, they need to have strong motivation, at least have motivation, especially internal motivation, which is definitely easier to succeed than those who do not have such strong motivation. However, this can easily lead to some problems, such as being eager for quick success and instant benefits, and to achieve their goals without fail.
In fact, these are not a big problem for Meng Xiang. His strong mental state of mind can help him keep his mind clear at any time, and he can clearly recognize various situations related to him, and not make short-sighted or wrong actions, so he can avoid the occurrence of quick success and instant benefits. As for the unscrupulous means to achieve his goal, it is even more unproblematic.
If you carefully look at the life trajectory of the immortals who can climb to a high position, you will find that almost none of them are clean. They have done something less brilliant for their own interests or improvement of their cultivation. The problem is only the amount and size of the things they do. When a behavior pattern becomes all choice, if anyone wants to stay out of the mud and untainted, the final result is likely to be outstanding, stand out in the flock, and is crushed into powder.
In fact, this kind of thing has happened to Meng Xiang long ago, for example, refining the fog space to kill all the people living there. Although he could kill the immortals from the Heavenly Palace and avoid a major crisis in his life, from the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to hurt the innocent for this, at least he would not let all the creatures in the fog space be buried with him.
However, in the end he was still helping the illusion, no, coercion. No matter what the statement was, he eventually refined the fog space and killed all the creatures in it. So at that time he understood a truth that it is difficult to do everything in full according to his own wishes.
Meng Xiang was also very clear at the time. If he dared to disobey the illusion's orders, his situation would be the same as those creatures he later killed. It can be said that he chose to compromise for his own survival. This time the situation had a great impact on him. It is no exaggeration to say that this should be one of the few events that could most touch his heart and have a strong impact on him.
This change has not stopped yet. Meng Xiang is very clear about this. It is slowly changing, transforming and even destroying some principles he has always adhered to. This makes him feel helpless and also has a sense of depravity, although he is unwilling to be.
In fact, people have the impulse to break through rules and regulations, various shackles, and taboos. Even if they become immortals, they still exist, and they will become stronger than when they are ordinary people. They even become the driving force for immortals to continue to make progress and advance to higher levels. Just imagine which immortal does not have the idea of getting rid of all constraints, just say that they don’t say it, and they will definitely have it in their hearts.
Adhering to principles means that his behavior will be subject to some constraints. However, no immortal wants to have constraints, and Meng Xiang is no exception. Therefore, after he experienced the refining of the fog space, it is hard to say that the changes that happened to him are not included in his subconscious indulgence. However, judging from the current situation, he seems unwilling to change.
Just as Meng Xiang was looking at his heart again, he suddenly found that the steps of illusion stopped. Subconsciously, he stopped, looked at her, and found that her eyes were staring at a place, so his eyes naturally followed. With his extraordinary eyesight, he quickly saw clearly the situation where she was staring.
After Meng Xiang saw the situation clearly, he realized that he had arrived in a completely unfamiliar place without realizing it. This place was different from what he saw when he entered Xingxu. When he first entered Xingxu, the stars he saw were diverse, among which the stars that did not collapse even accounted for the majority, and those completely collapsed only accounted for a small part.
Now all the celestial bodies he saw collapsed, and each one was very small in size and was in many numbers, at least much more than the celestial bodies he had seen before, especially where the eyes of Huan's eyes were transmitted, the number of celestial bodies there could even be described as dense.
If he is an ordinary person, he may only think that there are many types of stars, but Meng Xiang is not an ordinary person. It is obvious that there is something wrong with the position of those stars. They are arranged according to some rules, and the more they look, the more they feel that they are unfathomable and mysterious. Later, he even felt a sense of terrifying, as if there was something terrible monster hidden there, and he could jump out of the darkness anytime and anywhere.
Of course, Meng Xiang is already a holy immortal, and his special experience has made his mind very stable. Therefore, although those astral bodies seem to have some problems, they will not really have an impact on him. So he quickly ruled out its adverse effects on him and began to look at it with an objective and fair look.
To be honest, Meng Xiang has eyesight, especially after he eliminated its adverse interference to him, he soon discovered more situations and secrets of the astral bodies, and found that although their arrangement was mysterious, there were vague signs of artificiality. Although this sign was very light, he could still see it.
