Chapter 589: Thousands of Years of Persistence

The shadow looked at the pastoral spirit incredulously, and said in surprise: "After all this time, you, you dead ghost, are still alive!"

"You were beheaded by the thief and nailed you to the ground, aren't you also alive and well?" the pastor smiled faintly and said, "You can live until now, why can't I live until now?"

This shadow stared at the pastoral spirit for a long time, and finally, he smiled and said, "No wonder that junior just now was so confident, it turned out that he invited a rescuer." Ha, ha, ha, dead ghost, what if you came, what can you do with me? Pin me to the ground, or kill me!"

"Ha, ha, ha, dead ghost, you should also know that I can't be killed, I'm immortal forever. The shadow laughed.

Mu Ling just glanced at him coldly and said: "Old man Yang, old man Yang, how many years have passed, you are still obsessed with this set, do you really think that I can't kill you? If I uproot this earth and dig the ground clean, how long do you think you can survive? Ten years, or a hundred years?"

"Hmph—" The shadow snorted coldly at the pastoral words. There is a secret in this underground, and there are very few people who know this secret, but the pastor who used to be the soul of the god is definitely one of them.

"Hey, hey, dead ghost, after talking for a long time, you didn't want to get this underground thing in the end, otherwise, you and the First Emperor Kid wouldn't have built the Demon Suppression Ancient Kingdom here. The shadow said coldly.

"Yes, I did want to get my hands on this underground stuff before. The pastor did not deny it, and said: "However, after such a long time, I don't care about the things here, if I can get it, then take it, if I can't get it, then let it go, between heaven and earth, there are too many things I can get." ”

"Hmph, since that's the case, what are you doing here, don't get in my way!" the shadow said coldly.

"Standing in your way?" the pastor looked at the shadow, couldn't help laughing, and said, "What is in your way? What can you do? Even if I don't stand in your way, what way do you have?"

"Hey, hey, hey, I'm going to see the light of day again and return to the Nine Realms again!" the shadow said with a burst of laughter.

Mu Ling just glanced at him coldly and said, "Old man Yang, can you really go back to the past? Do you really think that you can become the same person you used to be? In fact, you will never go back, you are already dead!"

"I am immortal!" the shadow interrupted the pastoral in a loud voice, and at this point he roared a little.

"Okay, well, you are immortal, so what?" the pastor said coldly: "Under the curse of heaven back then, you are already dead, and everything you have been wiped out! What are you left behind? A person who is not a ghost or a ghost, a meaningless existence!"

"Fart-" The shadow couldn't help but shout angrily, "Fuck your shit, I once overrode the Nine Realms, I once protected the Terrans, and I saved the Terrans." In the era of tyrants, I am the only one who fights against the world, and I am the only one who fights back against tyrants. I am the savior of the Nine Realms, I am the guardian of the human race, and I am the savior of this world......"

The more the shadow spoke, the more excited he became, the louder he spoke, and by the end, he couldn't help but roar.

The shepherd stood there quietly, quietly listening to everything he had to say, quietly letting him roar, quietly letting him vent!

After a roar and roar, the shadow finally calmed down, and finally, he said coldly, "In short, I will see the light of day again and come to the Nine Realms! ”

"So what?" said the pastoral very blandly: "What can you bring to this world? If nothing else, even if I let you out, what can you bring to this world? This underground power will turn this land into a demonic land, as for you, yourself, have you thought about it?"

The shadow fell silent, and this time, instead of roaring, he didn't roar, he fell into a long silence.

"If I can break free from the cage of this heaven and earth, I can turn this heaven and earth into a paradise, I can surpass the nine heavens again, and I can rebuild my glory! Only perseverance, nothing cannot be successful, nothing is impossible. Eventually, the shadow said coldly.

The pastor looked at him and said lightly: "Break free from the cage of heaven and earth, purify the power here, what do you use to break free, what do you use to purify? Everything you have now is just relying on the power of this underground." Don't you think it's ridiculous that everything you have depends on this underground power, and now you want to break free from it and purify it?!"

"You're not the same person you used to be. Mu Ling looked at him coldly and said, "You are no longer the human emperor of the past, and you are not the sage of the past. What are you now? To put it mildly, you are nothing now, no human or ghost, you can live, but you are just that unwilling resentment!"

"Hmph, who said that I am an unwilling resentful!" The shadow said coldly: "I am me, the human emperor who protects the human race!"

"Yes, haven't you seen yourself in the same way that you are now in the face of no human or ghost? Are you sure you are still the human emperor of the past?" Mu Ling looked at him coldly and said, "You better wake up, you are nothing now! To be honest, I really don't know what you are resentful of. ”

"Do you resentment against yourself, resentment against the tyrant of the past, or resentment against the heavens, or resentment against your daughter!" said the pastor, looking at the shadow.

"Don't say it-" The shadow was particularly excited at the mention of his daughter, and exclaimed, "What do you know, in the time of the tyrant, how many Terrans were mutilated by him, how many creatures were slaughtered by him, do you see, the Terrans are wailing, the blood of the Terrans is flowing into a river, here, there is no ...... the light of day"

"I know. The pastoral spirit interrupted the shadow's words and said lightly: "Although, at that time, I was not in the Nine Realms, but I knew about it. In fact, more brutality, more blood, I've experienced bore. What is this tyrant compared to the Ancient Immortal?"

The pastoral spirit looked at this shadow and said, "Do you know why I didn't do anything to you when I broke into this underground with the First Emperor? Seriously, with the strength of the First Emperor at that time, and with the legion in my hands, it was enough for you to never turn over......"

“...... I could even cut you to pieces, so that you can never be reunited into a whole body. Seriously, even if I can't kill you, I still have many ways to make your life worse than death, and I can use the most cruel means in the world to force you to give up and give up everything!" ”

"I didn't do this, not because the First Emperor was merciful, but because I remembered your immortal deeds in protecting the human race. The shepherd looked at him and said, "So, I and the First Emperor just sealed you and sealed this underground power for myself. I only hope that one day you will understand and give up this indifferent grudge! Unfortunately, it seems that you have not figured it out today. ”

The shadow in front of him is Concubine Xiang's father, the invincible void god of the human race back then, an existence only one step away from the Immortal Emperor. In the era of tyrants, it was he who rose up against the tyrants, and in the end, he used his daughter as bait to marry the tyrant, and one wrong step not only harmed his daughter for life, but also made him irreversible.

"Give up, why give up! I'll be back someday." The shadow shouted.

The pastor looked at this shadow, sighed softly, shook his head, and said: "Every choice, whether right or wrong, requires sacrifice! ”

"Don't say it—" The shadow screamed.

The pastoral spirit ignored him and said lightly: "Seriously, I admire you for fighting against the tyrant back then, and I also admire your contribution to the human race, so I think you are qualified to be honored as the Human Emperor, even if you did not become an Immortal Emperor." ”

"It's just that I didn't expect that protecting the human race and sheltering the Nine Realms would eventually become your own obsession. The pastoral spirit said slowly: "A young genius of the human race, against the tyrant, persevered until the end, and became the white-haired human emperor. To be honest, I really admire your persistence back then. ”

"But, ask yourself, what is your obsession until now? Is it really to protect the human race? Is it really to protect the Nine Realms?"

"Full of nonsense!" the shadow said coldly.

"Really, do you really think so?" the pastoral couldn't help but laugh and said, "Could it be that you defeated the tyrant only to protect the human race? You went from a young man to the gray-haired human emperor, and by that day, you already had enough strength, and at that time, under your call, the human race had enough strength to fight against the tyrant kingdom. But the secret of the underground destroys you. Although to a certain extent, the power in this can have something that keeps people alive, although it is not immortal. ”

"Hmph, the mystery in this is what I comprehend, and only I can comprehend. The shadow said coldly.

"I don't deny it. The shepherd said, "But I will ask you a question, when you got this secret of the earth from the tyrant, and the tyrant died. He didn't wait for the day when you defeated him with your own hands. ”

"Hmph—" The shadow snorted coldly.

"Back then, it was not so much that you wanted to get this underground secret, but that you were more obsessed with defeating the tyrant, and you wanted to defeat the tyrant before he died, or that you wanted to kill the tyrant with your own hands! The shepherd looked at the shadow.

"Is it a difference whether you defeat him or protect the Terrans?" the shadow said coldly.

Mu Ling said lightly: "There is no difference, you know it in your own heart, but since you make your own choice, whether you are wiped out or become this person who is not a ghost or a ghost, it is your choice." Since this is your choice, what are you resentful? Are you resentful of the tyrant? Resentful of the thief? Or resentment of yourself?"

"I don't have a grudge, I just want to see the light of day again!" the shadow said coldly.

"Do you think that is convincing?" the pastor smiled and said, "Ask yourself, do you really not have a grudge?"

Speaking of this, the shepherd looked at him and said, "The power in this is unknown to others, but I know it clearly. The power in this belongs to the negative power, to the dark power. Why was the tyrant invincible, why was he able to turn the tide of battle, why were you wiped out and still alive? ”

"The tyrant's ferocity and ambition allow him to rely on this power. And you, because of your resentment, have made you what you are today, what you think you are immortal!" said the pastor.

"So what!" said the shadow coldly, "I am resentful, so what, because I am going to be your enemy, so I can't be resentful?"

"Back then, I built the Ancient Kingdom of Demon Suppression here because I also wanted to get this underground thing, but then I gave up. The pastor said lightly: "Seriously, whether you are angry or not, I really don't care, but your resentment will make this land become a demon land and destroy the creatures of this land, then, this has something to do with me!"

The shadow snorted coldly at the pastoral remarks and said in a cold voice: "Why do you think that I will make this land a demonic land? ”

"No, if it really comes to that time, you know better than me what will happen in your own heart, but you don't want to admit it. The shepherd looked at him and said, "What about the tyrant back then? Do you really think that you can control the power of the earth better than the tyrant?

"Or, when you weren't dead, you had a strong body, a strong will, and invincible strength, and you might be able to suppress the power of the underground. The pastor said, "But you have nothing now, and everything you have rests on this power." If you do go out, when the time comes, what will you take to get rid of it, what will you use to purify it? What will you use to make this world a paradise?"

At such words, the shadow fell silent and said no more.

"So, I'm here today to reason with you. The pastor said lightly: "Here, I don't want to fight and kill anymore, to be honest, I'm a little tired, and I'm a little tired of how to deal with or seal you." I came today in the hope that you can understand for yourself that where you come from, you can go from there, the deepest part of the earth is your destination, and you don't need to come out again. ”

"Hmph, who said that?" the shadow said coldly, "I will see the light of day again, and I will definitely surpass the Nine Realms......"

"It seems that I have been talking for most of the day, and it is completely in vain. The pastor interrupted him coldly and said: "At this point, I am really annoyed with you, how many years have passed, and you yourself have not dared to face your own choice, dare not face the outcome of your own making. Seriously, you can't even compare to your daughter, what a tragic fate she fell to, how much pain she went through that others can't imagine, all of this is due to you......"

“...... Although it is said that your daughter has hated you, she has not resented you until now, and for her, with the passage of time, everything will disappear with it...... "The pastor said slowly.

"Don't say it, don't say it, stop it!" As soon as Concubine Xiang was mentioned, the shadow screamed loudly, and he couldn't help but hold his head, unwilling to listen anymore, because this was his inner demon!

"I am here today, in addition to trying to convince you, and at the same time, to bring you good news. The pastor said lightly: "I have buried your daughter's bones in her most peaceful place, for her, all obsessions have disappeared, she has let go of the past, whether you are a tyrant, she is no longer resentful, she has set foot on the death." ”

Speaking of this, the pastoral priest looked at the shadow seriously and said slowly: "Or, you should also think about it and let go of everything. Whether it's a tyrant or your daughter, even if it's a demon, let it all go, only then can you be liberated. ”

"No-" The shadow couldn't help but hold his head and roared, "No, I will definitely be able to see the light of day again and return to the Nine Realms!"

The pastor looked at him, sighed softly, and said: "I can only say that I am disappointed, originally, I didn't want to force you by such means, but unfortunately, this is your choice, I hope that one day you can really face your choice." ”

As he spoke, the shepherd took out a vase, a vase painted with plum blossoms, which was given to the shepherd when Concubine Xiang was leaving.

"No—" The shadow screamed at the sight of the plum bottle, and retreated step by step in fear as if it had seen a ghost.

This plum bottle used to be Concubine Xiang's favorite, when she married the tyrant, as a father, he personally handed it to her! When Concubine Xiang was in the most painful time in her life, she could only hold this plum bottle and confide in this plum bottle, hoping for light.

Seeing this plum bottle reminded this shadow of everything, this is his inner demon, the last thing he wants to face.

"No-" the shadow screamed, "take it, take it, no-"

"It's late. The pastor shook his head lightly and said, "This is your choice, since it is your own choice, then face it." ”

"No-" The shadow didn't know where the courage came from, and pounced on the plum bottle, wanting to break it, but as soon as he approached the plum bottle, he was shocked, and immediately stepped back step by step, shaking his head frantically and said, "I can't, I can't, I can't do this, this, this is my daughter's favorite, I can't-"

"Ahh

"No-" In the end, the shadow was still uncontrollable, and with a scream, his body was torn open, and a shadow identical to him came out of his body, and this shadow came out, devouring him in one bite, and instantly escaped into the giant hole, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"Boom-" As the shadow disappeared without a trace, all the black qi receded like a tide, and in the blink of an eye, it all retreated into the ground.

"This is the demon of the heart. The shepherd watched the shadow flee into the deepest part of the earth, and said slowly.

Seeing this shadow fleeing into the ground, this made the Sixth Emperor Mu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, tens of thousands of years of confrontation was finally coming to an end, and everything disappeared with it.

After breathing a sigh of relief, Emperor Mu Liu couldn't help but say, "Will he come back?" Although it is said that this shadow was devoured by his own inner demons, however, this does not mean that he perished, now it is just that the inner demons occupy his consciousness and himself, if one day he can suppress the inner demons again, he may be able to come back.

"Leave the plum bottle here, suppress it, as long as the plum bottle is here, he won't come out, he can't fight his demons, unless he lets go of everything. When he can let go of everything, he will understand how to choose. The pastoral priest commanded.

When Emperor Mu heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and did what Mu Ling said.

When he was about to leave the ground, Mu Ling glanced at the Sixth Emperor coldly and said, "This is the power you want! Even if you get this power, what do you think will happen to you? Become a tyrant? Or become something that is not human or ghost?"

The Sixth Emperor of Mu bowed down, ashamed, and said: "It was I who was confused for a while, and I harmed the entire Ancient Kingdom of Demon Suppression, and caused everyone to experience tens of thousands of years of suffering. ”

"Okay, what should be punished has also been punished, and both of you brothers have also suffered what should be punished. After a while, come back to the Cooking Heaven Pavilion with me, Auntie, I'll go and say. After saying this, the pastor turned to leave.

“...... Thank you, young master......" The Sixth Emperor Mu trembled with excitement, and only after a moment did he bow down to the pastor.
