Chapter 167 Seeking Self Within
Chapter 167 Seeking Self Within
Hua Buhui felt compelled to resolve the karmic entanglement because of her sudden enlightenment.
For example, giving 100,000 or 200,000 high-grade spirit stones would be fine.
In any case, this amount of spirit stones is just a drop in the ocean for the Misty Immortal Sect.
Some people are just damn lucky; they're born into privilege and never lack for good fortune.
For example, those two bastards from the Misty Immortal Sect.
Tu Shan admitted that she was extremely envious.
I've decided to stop pretending and come clean.
She is a short-tempered, money-loving, and vengeful woman.
Rong Lu stared at his senior brother who was having an epiphany, a smile and a sense of relief flashing in his eyes.
That's right, it's about letting go!
My senior brother has been very anxious because of his situation, and he almost went into a state of demonic possession. His cultivation has stagnated at the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm for a hundred years.
It's normal for someone to not break through to the Nascent Soul stage for a hundred years.
But that was my senior brother, the first day in ten thousand years of the Misty Immortal Sect's history, and he never regretted his talent.
This made it impossible for him not to worry or be anxious all this time.
Tu Shan is right; the future is the inevitable result of the choices made in the past and present.
Similarly, isn't the present a result of countless choices made in the past converging?
My senior brother is unable to break through his limitations and achieve a breakthrough, which is related to him but also unrelated to him.
Isn't it also because my senior brother couldn't get out of it and felt that he made countless choices because he couldn't control his fate?
If the senior brother had already seen through the essence of cause and effect, he would understand that even if the senior brother gave him countless choices, as long as he chose according to the law or made a different choice, the predetermined result would not be achieved.
My senior brother has been trapped in the cycle of cause and effect. Everything he chose has led to various problems for Ronglu, which he cannot let go of.
Rong Lu is trapped in his senior brother's own causal choices, blaming himself for his senior brother's inability to break through due to his senior brother's choices.
For example, regarding life and death, the senior brother provides a way to live, but the choice is his own. He can choose to live, or he can choose to die, or he can choose another kind of life.
His cause and effect are solely related to his choices, and not to the person who provided the information.
The same applies to the reverse.
Hua Buhui provided a way out, and it was none of his business whichever path Rong Lu chose, because it was not him who made the choice, but Rong Lu.
Whether he's there or not, Rong Lu will make his own choices and follow his own path.
Of course, Hua Buhui might influence Rong Lu's judgment because of their friendship, thus forcing Rong Lu to be unable to be objective when making a choice.
But isn't this also a choice? He can choose to believe or not believe, or believe only part of the truth.
When he believes, whether he believes Hua Buhui or the information or choice depends on his state of mind.
When he looks inward for the answer, everything becomes clear.
When they blame everything on others, they cannot escape the mundane world and truly attain enlightenment during their spiritual practice.
Seeing Rong Lu's servile manner, Tu Shan became even angrier.
What is that?
Everyone seemed to understand something, but she, the one who spoke, seemed to know nothing at all.
He looked completely bewildered, like a complete idiot, staring at the gratitude in others' eyes that he couldn't understand.
snort!
The price of spirit stones needs to be increased further.
Tu Shan decided to turn a blind eye to the problem.
With eyes closed, one lies down.
Who cares who has an epiphany or who feels frustrated, as long as she doesn't lose any of her spirit stones.
When Cheng Nan returned to the group with a big smile, a day and a night had passed.
When Ji Se saw his smiling face from afar, she immediately put her hand to her forehead.
This is because he's afraid others won't know that something good has happened to him.
Although they'll find out sooner or later, could they at least tone it down a bit?
Does he want to be interrogated or get beaten up?
"Second Senior Brother, can you tone it down a bit? If I call you Second Senior Brother, you'll really become heartless and thoughtless."
Upon receiving Ji Se's telepathic message, Cheng Nan coughed lightly and thought through all the sad things he had encountered over the past twenty years before the smile on his face faded somewhat.
Seeing that Cheng Nan had indeed toned down his behavior, Ji Se decided to tell him the truth in order to make him realize his own shortcomings.
"Second Senior Brother, I'm not trying to be mean, but you're so happy about a mere seventh-tier demon beast. What will you do when you have an eighth or ninth-tier demon beast in the future?"
Look how calm I am, your junior sister. I'm like nothing's wrong even though I have an eighth-tier demon beast.
Look at the fan again. Those four eighth-tier demonic beasts aren't as happy as you are, like a complete idiot.
"Can't you be a little more sensible?"
As Cheng Nan listened to Ji Se's rapid-fire delivery, only two sentences kept circling in his mind.
"Junior sister has an eighth-level demon beast."
"Tu Shan has four eighth-level demonic beasts."
He numbly walked up to Ji Se and asked, "Is what you said true?"
Ji Se nodded firmly: "When have I ever lied to you!"
This child hasn't experienced the harsh realities of society; he's arrogant and complacent, becoming smug with even the smallest achievements.
This child still has a lot to learn.
She stared at Cheng Nan's defeated face, shook her head, and thought, "He's too easily amused."
Hey!
In the end, she pushed people too far.
"Second Senior Brother, you should think of it this way: besides me and Fanzi, you are the first person to possess number seven."
Yes, he was the first among everyone else to possess a second demon beast.
It's still a seventh-tier demon beast.
Thinking of this, Cheng Nan smiled slightly, not daring to laugh too loudly.
So that his junior sister wouldn't discourage him again.
"Junior brother, you only went out for a day and a night, and your cultivation level jumped from the third level of Foundation Establishment to the seventh level. Did Tu Shan give you some miraculous pills?"
Jin Zhilin stared at Cheng Nan suspiciously.
When my junior sister went out to find Tu Shan last time, she went from the Foundation Establishment stage to the Golden Core stage.
The junior brother went to find Tu Shan and progressed from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the late stage.
Should he also go and look for Tu Shan?
This is just too tempting.
Jin Zhilin stroked his chin, pondering this possibility.
"Senior brother, don't worry. As long as you pass the test, improving your cultivation will be as easy as drinking water."
Cheng Nan tried to suppress the smile, but in the end, he couldn't hold it in any longer and it curled up sharply.
"What kind of test?"
Upon hearing Jin Zhilin's question, Jian Leng couldn't help but prick up her ears to listen.
"I don't know! There are only a few spots available. It's not just for your master to replace you with someone else. It's not just for yourselves, but also for the sect, and possibly even for the Misty Continent."
After all, he was his senior brother, so Cheng Nan couldn't help but offer a hint.
Jin Zhilin frowned and pondered.
My junior brother has made it clear enough. The only matter that concerns both the sect and the Misty Continent is the monster siege of the island in the Miluo Star Sea that my junior sister mentioned.
Or perhaps the Miluo Star Sea is related to what my junior brother said.
This made him think more deeply.
Jian Leng knew just as much as Jin Zhilin; with their current cultivation levels, going to Miluo Star Sea would most likely be suicide.
For a moment, the three of them felt a little heavy-hearted.
They don't know how far they can go.
But no matter where they go, whether from the perspective of the sect or humanity, they must go to the Miluo Star Sea.
“Three senior brothers, things will work themselves out. There’s no use thinking about it now. The only thing we can do is improve our strength so that if that day really comes, we’ll have a better chance of surviving.”
Gise stepped forward and offered words of comfort.
“That’s right, Junior Sister is right. Besides, with Tu Shan here, there’s no problem.”
Jin Zhilin couldn't help but ask, "You really believe in her that much? Is she really that amazing?"
