Chapter 7: Now Enlightened and Solid (5)
Three months have passed, and Changsheng almost wants to go crazy: "In this vast lake, fishing for the only golden carp, am I crazy? Yes, as long as I wait, sooner or later I will catch that golden carp, but can I afford to wait? The old man has endless years for him to squander, do I have it?"
In three months, if I had been dedicated to cultivating, maybe my strength would have improved a lot, maybe the Nine Hells Divine Power and the Nameless Exercises would have improved a lot, maybe I could refine that primordial embryo and break through the defense of the white-clothed puppet with the ghost weapon, or maybe I could find a way to leave,...... Is it really worth it to spend time on this wooden ship, for an unforeseen goal?"
"What if the strength has improved, can you really break through the defense of the white-clothed puppet, even if you break through, if you have the qualifications to challenge him, can you defeat him?" Changsheng shook his head, "Not to mention how difficult it is to sacrifice that ghost weapon, with my current body, I can't withstand the backlash of one hundred and twenty runes at all, so what kind of sacrifice?"
As for leaving, the strength of the man in black is probably still above this old man, he said that he has to defeat five puppets before he can leave, and he must defeat five puppets. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info With my intelligence, I'm afraid I'm not as far as him!
I actually have no other choice, only to get the guidance of the old man to seize that glimmer of life, and this is probably the only way left to me by the man in black. ”
Half a year has passed, and still hasn't caught the golden carp, Changsheng closed his eyes and muttered to himself: "Is there really no other way?" or giving up is also a choice, anyway, in this misty forest, the cold poison has not attacked once, living in seclusion here, although it is lonely, but it is better to be at ease, hungry to pick some wild vegetables and fruits, boil some fish soup, thirsty to drink lake water, this is not bad.
Doesn't Grandpa just hope that I can stay up a few more days, now that I have done it, maybe I can still mix and retire for a long time, and die without illness, not bad, not bad. ”
Thinking of this, Changsheng was suddenly stunned: "It turns out that my goal has always been to live a little longer, so in this wood, I have indeed done it, what am I still struggling for? Why am I struggling? What do I say about defeating the five puppets, what I say about refining the nameless exercises, what do I say about escaping from here? Is it necessary? What am I for?"
Changsheng wanted to put down the fishing rod, but for some reason, he was unwilling in his heart.
"What's the reason why I can't let go?" Changsheng was thinking about it, when he suddenly saw the fish drift sink suddenly, Changsheng's heart moved, and with a hint of hope, he suddenly raised the fishing rod, and the silver scales on the hook jumped, but it was still not the golden carp.
Changsheng was slightly disappointed in his heart: "Why do I still have hope, why am I still disappointed? Didn't I know this result?" Changsheng thought as he removed the fish from the hook.
"I have worries in my heart, I am worried about the safety of the little monkey, I will take it out of the Inheritance Valley, I can't just leave him in the world; I am worried about the illusory grandfather, I want to tell him that his efforts have not been in vain for so many years, and Xiao Changsheng is still alive and well, so I don't have to worry about me anymore; I am worried about Liuyun and thank him for taking care of me in those years; I am worried about the old devil, I want to tell him that the little doll has escaped, but I can't send his token to the Western Regions; I am worried about ...... Yao'er," thinking of this, Changsheng's heart ached, "You lied to me, and even wanted my life, why can't I let you go?"
Under the moon before the flowers, he whispered softly, the feelings of the young man, how could he say that he could let go of it.
"If one day, I have achieved cultivation and appear in front of you again, and see what face you face me?" Changsheng was ruthless in his heart, gritting his teeth.
"Cultivation, yes, I want to cultivate! I want to get ahead, all the bullying in the past, which one is not because I am weak? Even the puppet in white despises me, if I have the strength of the old devil, the strength of Situ's predecessors, and the strength of the man in black, who in the world dares not to look down at me? Who dares to fight the idea of a little monkey? Only when I am strong can I protect the people around me, can I have a great freedom, and I can be at ease, what can I be hiding in this forest in this life?"
Changsheng's heart swelled with a pride and ambition that he had never felt before, and he looked up to the sky and laughed: "I swear to the heavens, from now on, I will not be afraid of hardships and dangers, not afraid of life and death, practice hard, and I will definitely reach the peak of a cultivator, if not, teach me to die here!"
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye, and in the past two years, Changsheng has caught many fish, lost again and again, and gradually honed Changsheng's heart to be extremely resolute and difficult to shake. Changsheng no longer doubts, distracting thoughts have long been eliminated, and in his heart, there is only one goal, that is, step by step to the peak of the cultivator, to protect the people around him, to protect the people he cares about, and to obtain true great freedom and freedom.
Finally, one day, the fish drifted a few times, and after a while, the fish drifted and sank, and Changsheng pulled the fishing rod, and the golden light flashed on the lake, and a golden-scaled carp was struggling on the fishing hook.
"Finally caught!" Changsheng smiled slightly, a little relieved, but not surprised, as if this was a matter of course.
Knocking on the old man's firewood, the old man walked out of the hut, took the golden carp, threw the golden carp far into the lake, and said with a smile: "Do you understand?"
Changsheng was grateful, bowed down, and said, "Thank you for the old man's guidance, can you ask the old man's name?"
The old man said: "No name and no surname, just a man on the lonely boat, entrusted by people, there is no other ability, I can only point you to some fishing experience!" and said, "The Dao heart is established, you can defeat the first puppet, these five puppets, unlike ordinary cultivators, all represent a certain extreme of the realm." Go for it!"
Changsheng bowed again and left, returning to the stone in the woods and summoning the white-clothed puppet.
"It's been so long to come, it seems that I have some confidence!" The white-clothed puppet took a closer look at Changsheng and said.
"Please advise!" Changsheng didn't say much, and the spear shook and stabbed distractedly.
"Huh!" the white-clothed puppet showed a different color, his figure flashed, and he had already moved out of the way, "Sure enough, you have made a lot of progress, and you are already qualified to fight with me." I wonder how you've done it in the past two years?"
Changsheng said: "I've been fishing for two years!"
"Two years of fishing?" said the white-clothed puppet in surprise.
"Yes, I've been fishing for two years!" Changsheng said, "These two years have made me understand that without a goal and a firm belief, even if you have no strength, it is difficult to really show it, believe in yourself, believe in your own ability, and believe in your choice!"
The white-clothed puppet nodded and said, "Dao heart is resolute, it sounds a little interesting, and it is rare, come, let me see your strength." Remind you in advance, if you are defeated, admit defeat immediately, otherwise, my subordinates will not show mercy and give their lives in vain, and don't blame me!"
Changsheng nodded and shouted, "Eat me with a shot!" A poisonous dragon came out of the water, and the spear was like a divine dragon, stabbing straight at the white-clothed puppet.
The figure of the white-clothed puppet flickered, and it had floated a few feet away, the golden light on its body flashed, and a golden light protected its body, threw the sword into the air, pinched the magic trick in his hand, and shouted: "Go!"
The sword flew into the air, magnified more than a hundred times, and with a sharp wind, it slashed towards Changsheng.
"Open!" the immortal spear "bell" held the sword.
"That's good!" the white-clothed puppet nodded in praise, "Come again, but I'm not more than that!" The fingers moved wrongly, the magic trick changed, and the sword suddenly changed, turning into a green snake, entangled the spear, and the snake's head leaned forward, straight towards the bite.
Changsheng spread his right hand, as fast as lightning, and his two fingers were clamped towards the seven inches of the green snake.
The green snake dodged left and right, let go of the spear, opened its mouth and spit out dozens of ice arrows, and shot at Changsheng, Changsheng smiled coldly, the spear swung up, pulled up countless gun shadows, and smashed all the ice arrows.
The green snake coiled in the air, turned into an ice circle, and came towards Changsheng.
Changsheng raised his gun and shook it, lit the ice circle, but unexpectedly was caught in the ice circle, and the bone-chilling cold air spread along the spear towards Changsheng with lightning speed, Changsheng didn't have time to throw the gun, and in an instant, his whole body was frozen by ice and snow, turning into an ice sculpture.
"It's a pity!" the white-clothed puppet sighed, "It's too strong, but it cost you your life!" and shouted, "Broken!"
With a "bang", the ice chips flew away all over the sky, but he saw Changsheng move his body, looked at the white-clothed puppet and laughed: "It turns out that you only have such skills, but you can't hurt me!"
The immortal muscles and bones have long been refined by the Hundred Spice Jade Dew to the extreme that can be reached so far, and in terms of physical strength and speed alone, it is comparable to the late stage of the Foundation Building Realm, far superior to the cultivators who have completed the Condensation Realm.
The strength of the white-clothed puppet is only at the extreme of the middle stage of contemplation, although there is a superb magic weapon in his hand, but it cannot produce the maximum power of the best magic weapon, at most it is only one-tenth or twelve of the maximum power, how can it hurt Changsheng? Although the ice and snow froze Changsheng's hands and feet, it could not hurt Changsheng for half a point, and with a little exertion of Changsheng, the ice cover was shattered.
The face of the white-clothed puppet changed, an ice wall appeared out of thin air, turned around and fled backwards, how could Changsheng let him go, the spear poked out, was chiseled in the middle of the ice wall, the ice wall was torn apart, turned into a sky of light and dissipated, Changsheng used force under his feet, quickly caught up with the white-clothed puppet, stabbed with a shot, the white-clothed puppet had no time to dodge, so he had to summon back the sword, the horizontal sword wanted to open the spear, where could it be blocked, Changsheng picked up the long sword with a shot, the spear continued to move forward, the golden light protective body shield flashed twice, and the "bang" shattered and dissipated.
Changsheng struggled in his hand, only to hear a "poof", the spear leaked out of the back of the white-clothed puppet, and was passing through the white-clothed puppet's heart, and the white-clothed man flashed twice, then turned into a streamer and disappeared into the stone.
"Sure enough, without a firm Dao heart, without absolute self-confidence, without finding the hidden trace of detachment in the reckless world, the true strength can only be exerted in one-tenth of the twelfth, this is the Dao heart! Without the Dao heart, there is no way to talk about cultivation, no wonder it is so difficult to break the delusion, this Dao heart is also an obsession, an obsession from the depths of the soul, how can it be easily broken?" Changsheng closed his eyes and thought.
