Volume Four, Chapter 1343 The Plea of ??Inheritance
"It's just as I guessed..." the shepherd boy said bitterly, looking at the old man in purple robe and the young man in white. The two of them were also silent.
Their cultivation has reached their level and they have lived for a very long time. If they didn't understand life and death back then, they more or less don't care about life and death anymore.
What they care about is...their cultivation. At their level, life may not be changed, but the inner persistence for cultivation has become a part of life over time.
The most desired thing.
Living does not exist for the sake of life, but for the most basic qualifications that one must have to continue practicing. This is the reason why they are silent at the moment.
Few people who have existed for so many years are greedy for life and afraid of death, but the inner feeling that they have not reached the ultimate level of spiritual practice, mostly due to insufficient longevity, is the key point.
"So, it's only a few hundred years ago." The young man in white smiled. There was no bitterness in the smile, but a touch of persistent determination.
"Hundreds of years..." The purple-robed old man sighed softly. He still had a lot of things to do, but time is short now. To them, hundreds of years are just like how mortals feel about a few days.
"Since everything is destroyed, even if the Dao Fruit and the inheritance I have cultivated are left behind, I am afraid there is no chance... to preserve them, but I still have to give it a try!" The old man in purple robe also looked decisive.
Meaning, the domineering aura exuding from him at this moment was extremely obvious. It was obviously an aura that showed no fear in the face of the real catastrophe that was about to come.
Be it the shepherd boy, the old man in purple robe, or the young man in white, the three of them are close friends. They have been together for too many epochs. This kind of friendship accumulated over time can withstand all storms.
As for the old man in dead wood, he obviously did not have a very good relationship with these three people. Otherwise, that scene would not have happened before. If it were the old man in purple robe and the young man in white, the shepherd boy would definitely stop them.
Su Ming had already analyzed this from the way these people came here, their expressions, and their conversations, so he did not hesitate to take action harshly as a deterrent.
The three of them didn't have the slightest distrust in what Su Ming said. After all, they had communicated with each other about this matter before, and they all had some guesses. In addition to Su Ming's arrival, Su Ming was obviously beyond the limit.
The strength of their cultivation gave all of this a reasonable explanation.
Moreover, these three people have survived for so many years and each have their own judgments. Regarding Su Ming... they will not doubt it.
"My second question is to ask fellow Daoist Su, in such a truly devastating catastrophe, how sure are you... of surviving?" The shepherd boy looked at Su Ming. After these words were spoken, the old man in purple robes and
The young man in white immediately looked at Su Ming, waiting for Su Ming's answer.
"Half completed." Su Ming was silent for a long time and slowly spoke.
"Is it 50% or..." After hearing this, the shepherd boy had the answer in his heart, but he still wanted to confirm, and his voice could no longer be calm.
"Half of 10%." Su Ming looked at the shepherd boy.
As soon as these words came out, all the three people fell silent. Su Ming did not hide it. He was indeed only half sure that he could survive this catastrophe.
"In what way? Is it confused?" The shepherd boy spoke again after silence.
"But the boundless vastness, the mist and life within it all contain powerful power. It is difficult for us to persist in it for too long. In less than a hundred years, we will surely perish." The old man in purple robe sighed quietly and said calmly,
What he said was the fact that even with Su Ming's cultivation level, he simply couldn't survive for long in that vast world...
Unless...his cultivation has reached the indescribable Great Perfection. Only when he reaches this state, just like the nine mulberry trees, can he be qualified to move forward in the vastness.
"That's one of the choices." Su Ming sighed softly, glanced at everyone, and said slowly.
"Do you have any other options? Can you tell me?" The shepherd boy looked solemn and asked again.
"The second option is to let your cultivation level reach the level of this Sang Xiang, but even so, in the face of the catastrophe that is far more dangerous than the vastness, it is still only half completed.
The third option is that Su once had an enlightenment and seemed to feel that there was another world in this vast expanse, perhaps countless years later, perhaps countless years ago, or perhaps very far away from here.
I once sent the mourning souls of a group of people into that world with my curse, but I don’t know if that world really exists. Maybe everything is false, or maybe...
.
I will send the important people in my life with my blessings into the world that I can't be clear about, but this choice... is the last.
Because I don’t know, even if that world really exists, whether they will still be them after entering there, whether they will still have memories, whether... we will still meet each other!" Su Ming said slowly, with a hint of emotion in his words.
A melancholy that the three of them could feel
The three of them were silent again.
"I've finished the third question. As for the Palace of Death, if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine...Su said goodbye. If we are destined, maybe we can see each other again. Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your wine." Su Ming said to the three of them.
A fist.
"Fellow Daoist Su!" the shepherd boy said. At the moment when Su Ming saw it, he cupped his fists and bowed deeply to Su Ming. The old man in purple robe and the young man in white also looked solemn and bowed deeply to Su Ming.
"There is nothing unspeakable. The ancient boat will appear in one place, next to the vast gap, but its existence is sometimes hidden, but I can be sure that it is there.
As for Old Man Mi Sheng... this man only sits cross-legged on that ancient boat all year round!" When the shepherd boy raised his head, his expression was decisive and he spoke without hesitation.
Su Ming stared at this person. Even though it was his first acquaintance, the shepherd boy in front of him gave Su Ming a very special feeling. He was a strong man with great wisdom in a certain era.
"Thank you." Su Ming nodded.
"Thank you, don't take it for granted. I'd like to invite fellow Daoist Su, if you can agree to something..." The shepherd boy looked decisive and determined, and when he spoke, he looked at Su Ming with expectation in his eyes.
"My Tao of Ban Fuzi is different from others. Among the monks of countless eras in the entire sky, my Tao... is the only one! My Tao is my perception. In my perception, this heaven and earth, this sky, this
Sangxiang and even all life, they exist in two forms. When everyone closes their eyes, everything is nothingness, and they are all invisible particles.
But when everyone opens their eyes, they will instantly gather together and become this world.
This is the Tao of my Ban Fuzi, and the origin of the Tao name. I just hope that this Tao will not be cut off from inheritance. I ask fellow Taoist Su to agree to send my Tao... into a world that may or may not exist, so that
It... carries hope there!" The shepherd boy looked solemn and bowed deeply to Su Ming again when he spoke.
"The same is true for me. I ask fellow Taoist Su to help me pass on my understanding of heaven and earth, and my inheritance of a lifetime of practice, into that world where it doesn't matter even if it doesn't exist!" The purple-robed old man flicked his sleeves and also looked towards Su.
Ming cupped his fists and bowed deeply.
"Since the two of them are like this, I hope that my life will not be in vain. If that world really exists, my sword will can be reborn and passed on. If it doesn't... then everything will return to ruins.
." The young man in white smiled, but his expression showed determination, and he also cupped his fists and bowed deeply to Su Ming.
"Have you thought about this?" Su Ming looked at the three people holding fists in front of him and sighed secretly, knowing that these three people may not care about life and death, but they cannot care about the inheritance of their own lifelong practice, so this destruction is coming.
Before that, they were going to give the inheritance a chance to survive.
"No need to think about it anymore!" The shepherd boy raised his head and stared at Su Ming.
"Okay, my time in this world is uncertain, it could be a few months at a faster time, or longer at a slower time... Three months later, I will come here again and use my magical powers to send the inheritance of the three of you into that place.
In the world." Su Ming was silent for a moment and then said decisively, Su Ming admired these three people.
"If anyone else..." The shepherd boy hesitated.
"As long as you are a determined person like you, Su will help you this time even if he spends a little more cultivation. But I can't guarantee that after your inheritance is sent away, whether that world will exist or not, even if it is true.
Will your inheritance be changed due to the existence of the world?" Su Ming looked at the shepherd boy, then nodded to the other two, clasped his fists and turned around, heading towards the sealed entrance of the cave above, and in an instant
The figure disappeared.
Until Su Ming left, there were only three shepherd boys left in the cave. They were silent for a moment. The old man in purple robe let out a long sigh, and the wrinkles on his face suddenly became more wrinkled.
"I'm going back to prepare the inheritance brand, so I'll say goodbye first. Hundreds of years..." The old man in purple robe shook his head, clasped his fists and stepped out of the cave.
The young man in white didn't say anything. He nodded to the shepherd boy and left in a flash.
When the shepherd boy was the only one left in the cave, he slowly sat down beside the table, picked up the wine glass and drank the wine, his expression becoming more determined.
"Has it been hundreds of years... I can see this kind of destruction with my own eyes, even if I fall... this life is not in vain! The only thing that is different from others is that my inheritance... contains both me and myself
The insights also contain the inheritance of my life.
I don’t know what will become of my descendants when they are sent to that world that may exist, and whether they can still remember that their ancestors exist here." The shepherd boy drank the wine bitterly.
Finally, the spicy wine and the sweet aftertaste at the end are just like the years and vicissitudes...
