"Tell me." Mo Juren's heart moved, and he vaguely thought of something.
"Master wives, senior sisters, and Caihuan and the others." After a pause, Han Li continued, "Has master found a way to extend the life of mortals?"
"Yes" Mo Juren didn't hide anything and replied directly.
After hearing this answer, Han Li suddenly understood that it was exactly what he had guessed.
How could someone as smart as him not see the changes in the people in Mo Mansion? This is true for all the senior ladies, the two senior sisters and Cai Huan.
This made him immediately think of some possibility. The master must have found some way to extend life span. This made the master's ladies six years later, not only did they not look old at all, but they looked younger and younger.
But, what's the use of this? No matter how much life is extended, if you can't practice, you will eventually die one day. It's just postponing the pain.
And Master has already embarked on the path to immortality, with so many concerns, how should he face the future? I am afraid that he will have to be restrained in everything he does, and he will always worry about the safety of his family.
"Do you still remember the question you asked me when I left Qixuanmen and rushed to the entrance of your hometown?" Mo Juren, probably guessing what the other party was thinking, suddenly asked.
"Of course I remember." The look on Han Li's face suddenly became solemn, and he continued,
"I asked Master at the beginning, how would Master choose between the path and his family?
Your answer at that time is still deeply remembered in my mind. You said that everyone is different and has their own choices. If you are committed to the road, then move forward without hesitation and abandon all worries and obstacles; if you can't let go, then just let go.
Everything remains as usual, surrounded by relatives, lovers, friends, etc., entangled with all kinds of mortal causes and effects.
This is the price you are destined to pay, and you can’t escape it, as long as you don’t regret it.”
Having said this, his tone paused again, with a hint of expectation, and he asked,
"So Master, have you figured out what's in your heart now?"
"I can't let it go, and I don't plan to let it go." Unlike before, Mo Juren did not continue to avoid answering, but replied with an unusually firm expression.
"Master, have you thought about the consequences?" Han Li asked again,
"What is the situation in the world of cultivating immortals? I think you know better than me. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a Shura field where the weak prey on the strong. The Mo Mansion is the biggest weakness. What if the enemy notices it and uses it as a threat? You can't guard it all the time.
Are you going to stay in the house and not leave?
Or maybe you are lucky enough and do not encounter a strong enemy that is difficult to resist. What should you do when your wife and senior sister are about to run out of life again? If these two problems are not solved, how can master practice with peace of mind?"
"What you said, I am a teacher, so I don't know." Mo Juren shook his head slightly and continued,
"It's just that the existence of Mo Mansion is a fact. Even if we know this, what can we do? Can we let our master abandon them and live freely?
What's more, the situations of you and my master and disciple are different. Mo Mansion's goal is too big, and there is no possibility of hiding it from the beginning. Choosing to abandon them means putting them on the chopping block and can only let others
The ending of slaughter.
As a teacher, I won’t hide it from you. I can’t walk alone, so I can only face it actively. Danger will naturally arise, and you just have to find a way to solve it. As a teacher, I am confident that this can still be handled properly.
As for the issue of lifespan, I am not in a hurry. With their current situation, there is no problem in living for eighty or ninety years. Moreover, I will try my best to help them extend it to ten, twenty, or even a hundred years. In short, I will not give up.
."
When he said this, his tone suddenly stopped, and a strange color flashed in his dark eyes, and he said quietly,
"Furthermore, how can you be sure that their future will be when their lifespan is exhausted and they will die? Building foundations, forming pills, forming souls, and transforming gods. With the improvement of their realm, their strength and methods will become more and more incredible. When the time comes,
When we reach the top in the future, maybe everything we worry about now will be solved?"
"This..." Han Li suddenly fell silent, not knowing how to respond. The master's words may be right, but he is too confident. Let alone Nascent Soul, Transformation God, even if it is a pill, for him
These are all things that are out of reach and may not be achieved in this life, so how can we talk about solving the problem?
As for extending the life span of mortals, even if it is short, it is easy to say that even he can find a way. However, to extend the life span of a hundred years or more, the difficulty will rise sharply, and even the Nascent Soul Stage monks may not be able to do it.
Moreover, even if you can do it, so what? What about a hundred years later? There is a limit after all. Unless mortals can practice on their own, everything is empty talk.
Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate at all and asked his doubts again.
"Who told you that mortals can't practice?" After listening to the other party's story, Mo Juren couldn't help but chuckle.
"Isn't it true? Without spiritual roots, mortals can't even sense spiritual energy, so how can they practice? Isn't this the iron law of cultivating immortals?" Han Li was stunned by the master's rhetorical question.
"That's just the law you understand. Things are not what you think." Mo Juren shook his head slightly and continued,
"I once heard some rumors by chance. Spiritual roots can be divided into innate and acquired. As the name suggests, innate refers to people who are born with spiritual roots. This is the case in the current world of immortality.
However, in the spiritual world above the mortal world, mortals also have the opportunity to become immortal cultivators as long as they have enough opportunities and can transplant their acquired spiritual roots through some means."
"It's... it's okay!" Hearing this, Han Li was dumbfounded.
"The transplantation of acquired spiritual roots, master, are you sure it is true?"
"It's just a rumor, of course I'm not sure."
"..." Han Li was speechless. Why did he say something so uncertain?
"You may think it's unreliable, but is it important?" Mo Juren did not answer the other party, but asked directly,
"Even if it's just hearsay, even if it's just a rumor, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, it's worth fighting for. The final result may not be satisfactory, but at least you won't regret it."
Hearing this, Han Li fell silent.
He has roughly understood what his master means. Life extension is only a temporary means. He will wait until his strength improves in the future to find a way to transplant spiritual roots.
However, this is too illusory. One hundred years, two hundred years, or more? After all, it is a method that only exists in the upper world. Whether it exists in the lower world is still a matter of speculation, and there is no possibility of success at all.
He also believes that as long as he is willing, he can bring the relatives he cares about to Mo Mansion at any time. With the relationship between the master and the disciple, the master will definitely treat them equally. Otherwise, it is impossible for the other party to reveal this secret to him.

But, is this really appropriate?
Individuals have different ideas and naturally have different ideas about the path they want to take. The moment he entered the path of immortality, he had already made up his mind that he would no longer have any causal involvement with his family.
Cold-blooded?
Maybe, but this is what he thinks is the wisest choice.
