"Senior...Your Majesty."

After listening to a few words from Shennong, Wu Wan changed his two titles when he opened his mouth, and his lips were trembling.

Why are you suddenly so pessimistic?

When he calls Shennong his senior, he mostly refers to him as a personal friend. He regards Shennong as his guide on his own path and a respected senior human being.

When he called your majesty, he regarded Shennong as the emperor of the human realm.

At this moment, Wu Wan doubted his ears.

——It’s a little inappropriate to say that he has an ear. He is now relying on the transformation energy that Shennong gave him back then to cross the barriers of heaven and earth and have a free and easy conversation with Shennong Yandi.

At this moment, Wu Wan had begun to check his mind;

After making sure that I was fine, I began to reflect again on whether I had not learned the human language well.

He knew all these words spoken by the old Shen Nong, but when put together... he couldn't believe that they had the literal meaning.

Just now, His Majesty Shennong said that he wanted to make a deal, and what he meant was that the two parties involved in the deal were the Human Domain and the forces behind Wu Wang.

Shennong said this:

"The problem of the human domain is at its root, and it is now hard to recover from.

Wuwu, the deal I want to make with you is that after my death, you can stand up and lead the remaining creatures in the human realm through those years that are destined to be extremely difficult.

As you said back then, I must stand up and cannot leave the problem to the next generation.

The Human Realm was born in the hands of the Human Emperor, and it should also end in the hands of the Human Emperor.

This war is a necessary process on this road. There will be a lot of casualties in the human realm, and the strength of the Tiangong will also be weakened.

In the next few hundred years, such wars will become the norm, until I can reach the Heavenly Palace and fight Emperor Kuang head-on."

"Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

Wu Wangdao's heart was slightly trembling and he immediately asked:

"Why is it that the fundamental problem of the human domain has become so difficult to recover from?

For such a large force that has existed for a long time, it must have some shortcomings. With continuous innovation and upgrading, these problems can be solved.

We, why should we be so pessimistic?"

Yun Zhongjun saw that Wu Wan's expression was solemn and a bit anxious, and he couldn't help but frown in thought.

But he couldn't hear the conversation between Wu Wan and Shennong at this moment.

Wu Wan said again: "Even if we go to the Emperor of Heaven to fight for our lives, we must make a thorough plan. There is no need to use human lives to fill it..."

Shen Nong said: "You already know the answer, there is nothing wrong with it."

Wu Wang spoke for a moment.

Shennong's voice sounded in his heart, surrounding his soul, saying word by word:

"In the past ten thousand years, I no longer know how to face all sentient beings in the human realm."

"Your Majesty, why don't we talk openly and just pretend that I don't know anything."

Wu Wang said:

“Each of us may have different understandings of the same thing.

If you cannot communicate directly and plainly, especially on such a major matter, it is easy for people to make wrong judgments.

From what I understand at the moment, the issue Your Majesty is talking about is the method of inheriting the Great Way of Fire."

Shennong said: "To be precise, it is the inheritance of how to complete the Great Way of Fire."

Speaking of this, Shennong sighed lightly.

The old man sitting on the long wall at the northern border of the human domain has calm eyes and a peaceful expression.

He said:

"I never want to use the position of Human Emperor to force you. It's not that I think you are not suitable for this position.

Wuwu, I just don’t want you or any young person in the human realm to repeat the tragedy that happened between me and Teacher Fuxi.

Emperor Yan ordered me not to give it to too many people.

Before I met you, I even thought that it would be a relief if the human realm ended like this."

Wu Wang's eyes were filled with confusion.

He asked: "What tragedy?"

"The Tragedy of Vulcan."

Shennong whispered, but this time he did not continue to play riddles, but pushed everything aside, crushed it into pieces, and explained it to Wu Wan in detail.

The old man said:

“There is a problem with the inheritance of the Avenue of Fire.

Naturally, we have no reason to judge whether this matter is right or wrong, nor should we arbitrarily evaluate the Suiren Emperor.

In different years, we face different crises;

Suiren made this decision, giving us the opportunity to hesitate, remember, and choose.

In other words, Suiren left the power of choice to us latecomers.

Why can the Avenue of Fire stay in the human realm and be controlled by successive human emperors?

You must have thought about this question many times, there is nothing wrong with it.”

"Well," Wu Wang said, "but I very much hope that what I speculated is wrong."

"The Avenue of Fire is locked in the blood of the human race."

Shennong said in a low voice:

"The way of inheritance of the Way of Fire is - dead people.

The more people die, the more Fire Path fragments the successors of the Fire Path can obtain.

During the dark turmoil, when more than 95% of the human domain's population dies, the Avenue of Fire will be completely inherited by the human monks who have obtained the key.

Emperor Fuxi had no choice at all back then.

He looked at countless tribesmen falling one after another in front of him, at the butcher knife wielded by Tiangong, at the old, weak, sick and disabled behind him...

He is so angry, but what can he do?

Emperor Fuxi could only pick up the key, stuff it into his soul, transform into the Fire Emperor, accept this power, and protect the remaining people...

The human emperor.

The Human Emperor is actually the most incompetent monk in the human realm.

Even one's own path cannot be settled in the same way.

Watching my clan members continue to fall, I can only rely on the paths left by my predecessors to protect those behind me..."

When it came to the latter part, Shennong's voice was so deep that it was impossible to hear clearly.

"senior."

Wu Huan tried his best to stabilize his Taoist heart, thinking about how to help Shennong get rid of his current mood, and said with a smile:

"When Emperor Yan ordered his second transformation, I had almost realized this."

"Boy, you have no idea that sometimes I really don't want to give you the Emperor Yan Order.

But more often than not, I have to think about leaving a hope for the domain.

The worst thing is that it’s the same path I took back then.”

Shennong suddenly laughed and said: "Before I became the Human Emperor, I actually wanted to be a doctor."

"I've always had a question."

Wu Wang asked: "If you let a monk practice the Way of Fire and instill insights into him, won't he be able to directly inherit the Way of Fire?"

"The Avenue of Fire is just the way of the Five Elements Source God," Shennong said. "How can we withstand the Heavenly Palace with only the Avenue of Fire?"

"what is that?"

"The avenue of fire in the human realm has resonated with the avenue of living beings and turned into the avenue of fire."

Shennong said slowly:

"The living soul is not extinguished, and the fuel fire is never extinguished.

A single spark is enough to start a prairie fire.

This is the handiwork of the late Emperor Suiren, and it is also the blueprint he planned for the human race under all kinds of desperation.

The existence of the Avenue of Fire allows monks in the Domain to be inspired by the Avenue of Fire, and allows all human beings in the Domain to be connected by the Avenue of Fire.

Life is firewood, anger is fire.
