Chapter 16: Hearts and Minds

The white-eyed immortal Weng looked up at the clouds, and sighed leisurely: "The seven domain masters were all cultivated by the old man, and they were also destroyed by me, especially the blood slaughter, he is the most promising way to find his true self, and may even become a master like the Northern Heaven Sword Saint, even without the guidance of the old man, he has great hope of becoming an emperor-level master, but he ...... He believed in the old man's way, and it was never possible for him to find his own way. ”

"Blood Slaughter, it's the Blood Slaughter Saint Monarch, right?" Shi Sheng groaned slightly, and said curiously: "Since the Blood Slaughter Saint Monarch has a great hope of becoming an emperor-level master, why does the Immortal Weng still interfere in his Dao?"

The white-eyed immortal Weng sighed and said, "Because of his Dao...... It's too dangerous, the true self of the blood slaughter is conceived in killing and blood, once it takes root and sprouts, the blood slaughter will become a peerless demon lord who kills people like hemp, the stronger his true self is, the more terrible the strength will be, and the more people will be killed, if he becomes a master like the Northern Heaven Sword Saint, the entire southern corner will be a river of blood, and the consequences will be unimaginable, so ...... The old man can only strangle the way of killing before it is formed, and replace it with the way of the old man's heart. ”

"I see. Shi Sheng could feel the guilt in the words of the white-eyed immortal, and couldn't help but say awe-inspiringly: "Immortal, you are not wrong in destroying a single husband and saving tens of millions of people!"

The white-eyed immortal Weng glanced at Shi Sheng and smiled slightly: "You...... The old man can feel that your true self has sprouted, take good care of it, one day, it will become a shadow, and you will also become a resounding character in the world. ”

Shi Sheng smiled slightly and said, "Chengxian Weng Jiyan." The younger generation is ashamed. The white-eyed fairy Weng bowed slightly, stroked his beard and smiled: "Young and promising, and not arrogant, not ambitious, rare, rare, the Northern Heaven Sword Saint really accepted a good apprentice." ”

Shi Sheng's expression darkened, he sighed lightly, and said, "Sword Saint senior, he ...... He didn't take me as an apprentice, but gave me his legacy. ”

The white-eyed fairy Weng couldn't help but be stunned, and let out a long sigh for a while. "He doesn't think he's worthy of being your master." Right?" said with a slightly wry smile and said, "He...... After all, it's still a cut above me, alas. ”

"Immortal Weng ......" Shi Sheng wanted to comfort a few words, but the white-eyed immortal waved his hand. Interrupt Shi Sheng. Said: "The old man and the Northern Heaven Sword Saint." It can be regarded as a senior brother, and he gave it to him with the words "my heart is only me, and I see infinitely". Like an initiation, the old man suddenly opened his mouth and finally found his true self. ”

"The old man's way, and the way of the Northern Heaven Sword Saint, is very similar, they are all asked with the heart, the heart is the way, that is, the way, this is the category of the heart sect, as far as the old man knows, the Northern Heaven Sword Saint cultivates the way of the sword heart, and the old man cultivates the way of the Zen heart, which is of the same origin, but each has its own strengths. ”

Saying that, the white-eyed immortal turned his head to look at Shi Sheng, and said: "Although the Northern Heaven Sword Saint did not accept you as an apprentice, he handed over the inheritance to you, when you participate in the swordsmanship of the Northern Heaven Sword Saint, you will definitely be able to experience his sword heart way, the old man said so much to you today, just because there is one thing to ask for." ”

Shi Sheng said: "Immortal, please speak." The white-eyed fairy said: "When you comprehend the way of the sword heart of the Northern Heavenly Sword Saint, the old man hopes that you can inherit the mantle of the old man and become the saint of the resentful spirit swamp." ”

Shi Sheng was taken aback and said, "Immortal Weng, you ...... Are you kidding?" The white-eyed fairy shook his head slightly, and said: "The old man is old, and he has always felt weak and weak recently, I am afraid that the limit is approaching, and his life is short, alas, the old man is flesh and blood after all, not an immortal or a god, after all, he can't jump out of this cycle of life and death." ”

The white-eyed immortal Weng is only through the cultivation of the Xuan Realm, and he can live to be 100 years old, and it is indeed the end of his life, Shi Sheng's heart was gloomy for no reason, and said: "Immortal, don't be too pessimistic......

The white-eyed fairy waved his hand and said with a slight smile: "Life and death are fate, the old man's life is wonderful, there are no regrets, the only thing that can't be relieved is the hundreds of millions of believers in the resentful spirit swamp." As he spoke, he couldn't help but turn around, pressed his hands on the trunk, looked up at the sky, and said: "Since the old man's heart sect has been widely spread, the chaotic situation of the resentful spirit swamp has improved greatly, and it has gradually tended to be stable and prosperous. ”

Shi Sheng couldn't help but be stunned when he heard it, an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart, and the white-eyed fairy Weng sighed: "Human nature is good, no one will naturally like to kill, the people of the Resentful Spirit Swamp are forced to fight each other because of life, because this Resentful Spirit Swamp is a barren land, lack of resources, people kill each other in order to grab resources, in order to survive, their nature, do not want to kill evil!"

"When the old man was a child, he once witnessed a five- or six-year-old child, strangle a two- or three-year-old girl, just to grab a steamed bun, how distorted that scene was? For so many years, the old man could not forget the eyes of the little girl when she died, and she held the steamed bun tightly until she died, refusing to let go......" The white-eyed fairy Weng said this, the corners of his eyes were slightly wet, and the green bamboo was slightly squeaked, and small cracks appeared.

Shi Sheng didn't experience much of the chaos and bloodshed of the Resentful Spirit Swamp, he didn't know that the cruelty of the Resentful Spirit Swamp was far beyond his imagination, and after a long time, the white-eyed fairy Weng gradually let go of his hand and said: "As long as there are resources and a way to survive, the people of the Resentful Spirit Swamp don't have to kill each other anymore, and the children don't have to ask for a steamed bun and kill people!"

"The greater a person's ability, the greater the responsibility, after the old man became the saint of the Resentful Spirit Swamp, what he has been working hard to do is to change the Resentful Spirit Swamp! The Spirit Swamp has thin aura and lack of resources, this is a natural decision, the old man is powerless to change, but the land of the Seven Kingdoms is very rich and rich, as long as the materials of the Seven Kingdoms are provided to the Resentful Spirit Swamp, people can get rid of the bloody killing, don't ask a steamed bun to kill people!"

However, the chaos of the Wrath Swamp discouraged the merchants of the Seven Kingdoms, only some speculative profiteers, secretly engaged in some underground trade, and there were no serious rich merchants who were willing to do business with the Wrath Swamp, and the reputation of the Wrath Swamp, in addition to bloody killings, was only the name of the shack of criminals, which was something that the old man had been distressed about. ”

"The Wraithing Swamp is located in the center of the Seven Kingdoms, bordering the Seven Kingdoms, and has a unique geographical location, as long as the killing and chaos of the Wraith Swamp is quelled, trade routes are built, and a trade center is established, this place will definitely be, it will definitely become a rich and peaceful paradise!"

Speaking of this, the white-eyed immortal Weng was too excited, and couldn't help coughing rapidly, Shi Sheng hurriedly stood up, picked up the teacup, and sent it to the white-eyed immortal, and said, "Xianweng, you take a sip of tea and speak slowly." ”

The white-eyed fairy Weng smiled slightly and said, "It's old, it's useless." After saying that, he took a few sips of the teacup, handed the teacup back to Shi Sheng, and continued: "The old man has worked hard for decades, making the Heart Sect widely spread the swamp of resentful spirits, deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and tried his best to cultivate talents, and finally taught nearly ten emperor-level masters, and took the throne of the seven domain lords, everything is ready, just one step away, but...... The old man's time is running out, decades of operation, success and failure, the old man ...... How can an old man die blindly?"

Nandou Zhangsheng and Beidou are destined to die, even if they are otherworldly characters like the Northern Heaven Sword Saint and the White-eyed Immortal, they can't beat time after all, and they will inevitably die in the end, Shi Sheng's heart couldn't help but be gloomy for a while, and said: "Immortal Weng, how can the younger generation inherit your great cause?"

The white-eyed immortal said: "Shi Sheng, the old man will not look at the wrong person, you will definitely be able to! After the old man dies, you will succeed to the master of the Heart Sect, and completely complete the old man's unfinished business and unfulfilled wishes! For the sake of the hundreds of millions of people in the Swamp of the Resentful Spirit, you can't refuse!"

Shi Sheng never dreamed that the white-eyed immortal would throw such a big burden to him, and for a while, he couldn't react at all, his heart was in a mess, and he said, "Immortal, I'...... I really can't, I ...... I don't know anything about the Heart Sect, how can I manage the affairs of the Heart Sect?"

The white-eyed immortal said: "When you learn the sword path of the Northern Heaven Sword Saint, you will understand the old man's heart sect, and when the old man's two subordinates help you, you will definitely be able to take care of the heart sect and completely transform the resentful spirit swamp to benefit hundreds of millions of people." ”

Shi Sheng was embarrassed and said, "This ...... It's so sudden, Immortal, you...... You give me a few days to think about it. ”

The white-eyed immortal Weng bowed slightly, and said, "Okay, you will spend a few days in the old man's Yunyin Immortal Palace, and think about it carefully." ”

Shi Sheng sighed secretly in his heart and said, "Yes, thank you for your understanding." The white-eyed fairy said: "Shi Sheng, there is something that the old man wants to remind you. Shi Sheng said: "Immortal, please speak." ”

The white-eyed immortal Weng smiled slightly: "Thinking of the relationship between the old man and the Northern Heaven Sword Saint, the old man can summon the seven domain masters for you, but whether they are willing to fight for you depends on whether you can move them." ”

Shi Sheng was stunned for a moment, and said, "I said to move them, how can I have such ability?" The white-eyed immortal Weng smiled slightly, and said: "The Tomb Shadow Society has the strength to kill the Northern Heaven Sword Saint, if you want to fight against the Tomb Shadow Society, even if you are an emperor-level master, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not lose your life, how can the old man force them to do such a dangerous thing?"

When Shi Sheng heard this, he also knew that what the white-eyed immortal Weng said was right, how dangerous it was to be the enemy of the Tomb Shadow Society? Why did the Seven Great Domain Lords take the risk of fighting the Tomb Shadow Society? What price could he pay to make a move to move them?

As Zhong Li said, without any price, the only person who can move the seven domain lords to make a move is the white-eyed immortal, but the seven domain masters are the masters who have been operating for many years and have only been cultivated, if there is a slight mistake, the life's work of the white-eyed immortal will inevitably be in vain, how can the white-eyed immortal let the seven domain lords take such a risk?
