"I don't have my own counterpart, so you chose me?"

Chen Xi slowly opened his eyes, and his heart was difficult to calm down. He couldn't even continue to practice, to continue to restore his body. His mind was full of the middle-aged man's words, circling back and forth. And the most important sentence is also the sentence that Chen Xi can't understand the most, Chen Xi, it is not a coincidence that you came to this world.

Not a coincidence, what is that?

There was nothing difficult to understand about the words that Long Vein said to him before. Chen Xi knew that he was special, but he had never thought of it before. He does not belong to this world, his soul is independent. So in the Endless Abyss, it is easy to understand without his counterpart. It's not easy to understand that there is any special meaning in just not having a corresponding beast?

The more he thought about it, the more confused it became, and Chen Xi's thoughts gradually began to run out of clues.

Didn't I come into this world by accident?

Chen Xi thought about it for a long time, and even thought about why God left this world, and why an endless abyss appeared after God left. These are things that God knew or did not know before he left. Does my coming have anything to do with God's departure?

After a long time, Chen Xi had to force himself not to think about these things anymore. The main thing now is to survive well and protect the people you want to protect. Then build Blue Star City into a sturdy castle, a castle that can be compared to Tianshu City Haoyue City. Only in this way can more people be saved.

It was at this moment that Chen Xi inexplicably remembered what Fan Chi had said to him in the illusion.

The responsibility of a practitioner is to protect.

Could it be that there is really a providence in it?

Chen Xi forced himself not to think about it, and began to silently recite the Heart Sutra of Zen Buddhism in his heart. These verses have no meaning for spiritual practice, but they have a great effect on calming the mind. It didn't take long for Chen Xi's heart to finally calm down.

A few hours later, Chen Xi opened his eyes again. Except for some faint pain in his body, the power of cultivation has almost recovered. He got up and left, going outside to see how the city defenses of Blue Star City were repaired. After all, before Lu Lao died in battle, Blue Star City's defensive array had not been fully set up.

After coming out of the room, Chen Xi first went to a specially opened space to take a look. This is a cemetery. Since the beginning of guarding Blue Star City, every cultivator who died in battle has been buried here. After a fierce battle, dozens of new graves were added to the site. Equivalent to the loss of the Abyssal Beast, the death toll of human cultivators in this war was simply negligible. But death is death after all, and it's sad.

A little girl who looked to be only two or three years old walked to the new graves with a handful of freshly picked flowers. Her steps were still a little faltering, and there was no sadness in her eyes, because she didn't understand what was happening. Her young and beautiful mother stood behind her, looking at her with encouraging eyes. The little girl walks to a new grave and lays down a flower. She walked very slowly, and almost fell a few times, but she did not stop and laid down a flower in front of each grave.

"Mother, why do uncles and uncles sleep there?"

She asked her mother.

The young mother picked up the child and replied earnestly: "Because it is a passage, and the uncles and uncles do not sleep in it, but from there they go to another world." In that world there will be no more wars and no hatred between people. They all live quietly there, and they think of us. ”

The little girl obviously didn't understand what her mother said, but she nodded vigorously.

"Let's go. ”

The young mother left with the child in her arms, and when she saw Chen Xi, she leaned over slightly to salute. That's not because Chen Xi is a powerful person, and it's not because Chen Xi is very strong. Her politeness is a genuine reverence.

"City Lord, you're here too. ”

Granny Huang walked up to Chen Xi, looked at the new graves and shook her head: "As long as there is war, there will be death." I used to despair of the world, and when I saw that everyone had only greed in their hearts, I regretted that I was born alone.

That's why I'd rather live in Blue Star City, because the people here are fierce and do whatever they want, but they are not hypocritical. Relatively speaking, I'd rather look at the real ferocity than the disgusting intrigue in Tianshu City. ”

She leaned over and bowed to the graves, "But now, all of a sudden, I changed my mind. When disaster comes, the courage, kindness and responsibility in human nature all come back. At this time, everyone living in Blue Star City has an unprecedentedly clean heart. They have no greed, no evil thoughts. They love each other and protect each other, and everyone is a relative. ”

She looked at Chen Xi: "So now, I am more convinced than ever. This war must be our victory, because there is not only evil in people's hearts, but also pure good. When everyone is free of that kind of selfishness, will the abyssal beasts still be terrifying?"

Chen Xi raised his head and looked at the sky.

Is this a catastrophe that will only occur in order to temper and test humanity? If so, then the cost is too great

Tianshu City

Lin Qicheng, who was sitting high on the dragon chair of the Holy Court, had a gloomy face, and he lowered his head slightly to look at the neatly arranged courtiers standing below, and suddenly felt a sense of disgust. He sat on the dragon chair and inherited the throne of the Holy Emperor. But why, he was not happy at all? At this time, the Holy Court was full of his people, and there was not a single opponent. But why, whenever he saw these people, he felt a sense of self-deception and humiliation in his heart?

It's as if you're slapping yourself in the face. Every day, it goes on.

He opened the demonic gates and unleashed the terrible things of the Endless Abyss. Although this qiē was arranged by the national teacher, why did no one condemn him? Just because these people all wanted to get glory and wealth from him? He suddenly felt a little sad, why didn't anyone stand up and scold him fiercely at this time?

"Is there any news coming back from all over the world, where has the Abyssal Beast attacked?"

He asked.

He forced himself not to think nonsense, he was already the Holy Emperor of Great Chu. Although he has a vicious heart, he knows how to be a holy emperor.

No one answered him, because no one knew the exact answer. The day the abyssal beast came out of the endless abyss, the Heaven and Earth Great Array of Tianshu City opened. In order to guarantee the interests of the practitioners, all ordinary people were expelled from the country. At this time, in Tianshu City, there were only cultivators left. And in order to ensure that Tianshu City would not be attacked from the inside by the Abyssal Beast's sneak attack, all teleportation circles have been closed. The news is blocked, and no one knows where the abyssal beast has attacked.

"Your Majesty the Holy Emperor doesn't need to worry, the minister thinks those things won't last. ”

Someone tentatively replied, but he couldn't deceive himself.

Lin Qicheng waved his hand, stood up and left the majestic Holy Courtyard Hall. He didn't want to look back, for fear of being disgusted by himself. Soon after he walked out of the main hall, he saw the man who was dressed in black and covered his face with a black scarf. The national teacher stood in the aisle and looked at him quietly. There seemed to be a piercing power in those eyes, and Lin Qicheng didn't dare to resist in the slightest when he saw these eyes.

"Meet the national teacher. ”

As the Holy Emperor of Great Chu, he had to respectfully salute the national teacher.

"You're wrong. ”

The national teacher said in a flat tone: "It's not time to disperse the dynasty yet, you shouldn't leave the main hall." You are the Holy Emperor, and everyone in Tianshu City is watching you. If you can't restrain yourself, how can you become a qualified Holy Emperor?"

Lin Qicheng smiled bitterly: "I am really the Holy Emperor?"

The national teacher still didn't have any change in his expression, and his tone was flat like a straight line: "What you see is only in front of you, I promised you to make you an emperor through the ages, and I will do it." This catastrophe facing humanity will end in your hands. You will become the Saint Emperor who has left the most significant mark in the annals of Great Chu. Even if it is the founding emperor of Great Chu, it is not as good as you. ”

Lin Qicheng didn't react to such words, he nodded casually: "Then I thank the national teacher." ”

The national teacher didn't care about his appearance, maybe in the eyes of the national teacher, Lin Qicheng was just a puppet with a great reputation.

"I'm going to leave Tianshu City tomorrow for a while, you have to be careful of the people of the descendants. When I am not in Tianshu City, you try not to leave the palace. Anyway, you don't have anything important to do, except for going to court on time, the most important thing is to practice a lot. ”

"Where is the national teacher going, and which family is he going to destroy again?"

"Don't you think it's naïve and ridiculous that you're giving up on yourself like this, with the aim of angering me?"

The national teacher said slowly: "I said that what I want to do will not be understood by anyone in the world, but I firmly believe that what I want to do is the most correct way to save this world." Rely on all the cultivators in the world to save the crisis? Rely on unity? What is the use of these? No matter how united you are, the cultivators are also independent individuals. The number of abyssal beasts is far greater than that of cultivators, and relying on cultivators to fight will eventually lead to the extinction of the human race. ”

"Only me, only I become the strongest, relying on my own strength to resolve this disaster, this is the right choice. So for the sake of all people, for the sake of this right, is there anything wrong with dying some people? They are dying to contribute to the living. ”

Lin Qicheng has heard such a reason more than once, and he has long since lost the true awe of the national teacher before. He is still afraid of the national teacher, but there is still a little respect.

"Then I congratulate the national teacher in advance, the world is invincible. ”

The national teacher was silent for a while and then said, "You don't believe what I say, because you already think in your heart that I am only doing this for my own selfishness. But I once told you that if there is still a person in this world who is purely for the sake of Da Chu, then it can only be me for so long, and even the people of your royal family cannot compare with me. Because I have paid far more for this Da Chu than you. ”

He slowly took off the black scarf on his face: "Look at me." ”

Lin Qicheng raised his head and looked at it with some resistance, when he saw the face of the national teacher, he was stunned for a moment, and after a few seconds, he suddenly reacted: "You are unexpectedly"

The national teacher put the black scarf back on: "So, don't doubt my words. This world needs a supreme power, and only by having a supreme strong person will it not ruin miè. This supreme powerhouse is the patron saint of the Tianfu Continent. No one is more suitable than me, because no one is calmer than me. Whether it's killing someone or saving someone, I can't make a wrong judgment. Please remember that the Abyss Beast may not be the biggest threat to the Tianfu Continent. ”R1058
