When Li Qiye said this, Cang Ancestor couldn't help but sigh softly and said: "For our Cang Ling clan, it will take an extremely long time."
Li Qiye smiled faintly and said: "Haste makes waste. If your Cangling clan needs the body of the ancestor, then I cannot protect you, nor can I give it to you. Even if I protect you, even if I give it to you, Then, it can only accelerate the demise of your Cangling clan. If your Cangling clan perishes in such a short period of time, then, for me, it is a great time to welcome the arrival of a new life and a new race. , what’s the point of that? It’s just a flash in the pan.”
"I will keep what the young master said in mind." Cang Ancestor also gave up this idea and thought, and said: "On the road to Cangling, we should go step by step and accumulate more knowledge."
"It's great to think like this. This is the royal way." Li Qiye nodded lightly and said: "What you have done also laid the foundation for your Cangling clan. As long as you continue to grow stronger, every generation will make progress." Little by little, one day, when enough accumulation is accumulated, there will be a breakthrough. By then, the body of the ancestor will be just a matter of time. Even if that day comes, if the Cangling clan can It is not surprising to stand at the top of all races, and it is also a matter of course."
Having said this, Li Qiye paused and continued: "Otherwise, all the miracles and all the power are just bubbles. Even if you finally stand on the top of all races, you will not be able to escape the catastrophe of being wiped out. This is The path that you Canglings must take is also the path that you must take in cultivating the Tao. There are no shortcuts. All shortcuts will eventually require a price to compensate, unless you just stop here and your own race will come to an abrupt end."
"How long will such a road take?" Bingwei Shuzu couldn't help but ask.
Li Qiye shook his head slightly and said: "This is unknown. It will be long and indefinite. If we keep going, it will eventually blossom and bear fruit."
"What if the flowers fail to bloom and bear fruit?" Soldier Wei Shuzu said.
Li Qiye smiled and said: "If you think so, then there is no need to do anything, just stop where you are. As a monk, who dares to say that he will definitely become an emperor or a Taoist king. If not, Does that mean you don’t need to practice anymore?”
"What the young master said is true." Cang Ancestor agreed very much with Li Qiye's statement and couldn't help but praise and nod.
Li Qiye looked at Cang Ancestor and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He sighed softly and said, "As a Dao Lord, you have a long way to go, and the road is very long."
"But, as the ancestor, I have a longer way to go." Cang Ancestor couldn't help but said softly.
Li Qiye looked at Cang Ancestor and said seriously: "Then it depends on your choice. Do you choose for yourself or for the clan?"
"In terms of my status as the founder of my clan, and my birth, I should also take on this responsibility, and I should also have this mission." Cang Ancestor couldn't help but said: "The road I have traveled, perhaps It’s the best path for future generations.”
"Why is it the best way?" Li Qiye smiled, shook his head, and said: "It is not the best way that you have traveled. Only the right way is the best way. Just like you today , the invincible Dao Lord, do you want to force every Cangling to be like you, to become the invincible Dao Lord, the invincible emperor. How many Cangling can do it when you reach your current state?"
Cangzu couldn't help but be startled for a moment, and finally said softly: "No -"
"Then even if there is a future, or Cangling really reaches the point where you have gone as you wish, then, how should you do it?" Li Qiye looked at Cangzu.
"Perhaps it's time for my mission to end." Cangzu couldn't help but say.
Li Qiye couldn't help but laugh and said slowly: "You know, everything in the world is not as you wish. If you do it yourself, it should be as you wish and as you insist. This is the journey to your own Taoist heart. .”
At this point, he looked at Cangzu meaningfully and said, "If everyone in the world is as you wish, what will it be like?"
"Everyone does what I want?" Cangzu couldn't help but be startled.
Li Qiye said leisurely: "If you wish for peace in the world, then the world will stop fighting. Anyone who raises a fight is a sin; if you wish for eternal light, then there must be no darkness in the world, not even a ray of darkness. All should be annihilated; if you want all living beings to be like me, then should those who are different from you deserve to die..."
"This..." Cang Ancestor couldn't help but paused and began to ponder.
She has indeed never explored such an idea.
"As you wish, you are the only one in the world." Li Qiye said slowly: "The self is the only one. Since you are the self, you can seek to be the only one. Why do you ask all living beings to be your only one? This is tyranny. , This is tyranny, and it is also the way to destroy heaven and earth, and the way to destroy all living beings. Apart from your way, how can anyone else in this world survive?"
"It's not so extreme." Cangzu had some objections.
Li Qiye nodded and said: "So far, it is indeed not so extreme, because it is beyond our power. If it is within our power, what will happen? If you can give all living beings in Cangling the body of the ancestor, If someone refuses to take over your ancestor's body, is that a betrayal or contempt for you? Or, is it because he doesn't understand your sincerity, your good intentions, and your integrity? Hard work."
"This..." Li Qiye said this, which made Cang Zu fall silent.
What she seeks is to protect the Cangling clan and bless the Cangling clan. If she really has the ability to bestow the body of the ancestor of the Cangling clan, then what will happen to her heart if someone refuses her gift? What do you think? Will you face it calmly?
"Don't place your hopes on others, let alone your own way." Li Qiye said slowly: "When you cultivate the Tao, you cultivate your own way. Only your own heart can be eternal. This is the way. If the pursuit of Taoism is based on people and Taoism for people, it is all putting the cart before the horse."
Having said this, he meaningfully said to Cang Ancestor: "In this world, no matter how great your expectations are, how great your disappointment will be. Everything about all living beings should be treated with a normal heart. Standing on the top of the peak, for all living beings, all blessings Ze, it’s good if you can do it in moderation, you don’t have to force it. Otherwise, one day, it will be out of balance, there will be backlash, it will eventually make your Taoist heart not strong, and you will definitely fall.”
"Is this really the case?" Cangzu couldn't help but wonder.
Li Qiye smiled and said: "I welcome your arrival, a new life, a new race. I have worked hard and paid a lot of hard work and a lot of price. If you let me down in the end, Your race has let me down, so how can I face it calmly and laugh it off? What will follow is probably an imbalance, maybe a kind of anger."
Having said this, Li Qiye sighed softly and said: "How many supreme beings, how many giants, they take protecting their own world as their own responsibility, taking protecting all living beings as their own responsibility, taking themselves as the patron saint of their own world, taking themselves as their own responsibility. It is my duty to be the savior of the aristocratic family..."
"...However, in this world, people will always be disappointed, and this world is always not worth it. When all your efforts disappoint you, and this world is not worth it, often, this is the time to start to fall. Whether they destroyed this world or abandoned it, in the end, they walked into the abyss and destroyed this world with their own hands. Maybe it was because this world was not worth it, maybe it was because of betrayal. In the end, the whole world was destroyed. The former protector, the former savior, is just a shadow in the darkness."
Hearing Li Qiye's words, Cangling and Bingwei Shuzu could not help but be stunned. They had never thought of such a distant thing. After all, what they were doing now was to seek blessings for the Cangling clan. Let the Cangling clan become stronger in the future.
"Saving the world is often the beginning of its destruction." Li Qiye sighed softly.
Cangzu couldn't help but look at Li Qiye and said softly: "What about the young master? How about this, young master?"
Li Qiye smiled faintly and said: "I have done everything I should do. This world is the destiny of this world. I go my own way. This world has its own path. If you don't have expectations, you won't. I am disappointed. What I do is what I do, and it is only for my own heart. It is not for the world, nor for saving the world, but for myself. What my heart wants is what I want, and it is only for myself. .”
"What I want is what I want, and it is only for myself." Cangzu murmured and repeated Li Qiye's words.
Li Qiye looked at Cang Ancestor. After a while, he finally said slowly: "So, you must think clearly about the direction of the Tao. There is nothing wrong with doing what you should do, but if you do it After that, maybe this is pushing you into the abyss, or maybe, before you get to that step, you can't help yourself, or you have fallen."
"You can take a longer road." Finally, Li Qiye looked at Cangzu and said meaningfully.
After Cangzu heard what Li Qiye said, she couldn't help but feel excited. She took a deep breath, bowed to Li Qiye, and said: "I will remember the words of the young master. The young master is like a bright lamp, illuminating My path protects me on my way forward.”
"It's just fate." Li Qiye waved his hand gently and said, "That's it. I will stay in the starry sky for the time being and cultivate good fortune for others. You can go for now."
After hearing Li Qiye's words, Cangzu and Bingwei Shuzu bid farewell to Li Qiye again and again, while Li Qiye stayed in the starry sky of the Galaxy Sacred Tree, nourishing the woman with infinite life force.
And Cang Ancestor also ordered everyone in Cang Ling not to disturb him.
