At the foot of Tongtian Peak.
Tian Linger met Lu Yuan again.
However, this time Lu Yuan was much more mature than before. He no longer looked like a boy, but maintained the appearance of a youth.
It seems that there is a slight difference between Tian Linger, a sixteen-year-old childish girl, but not much. Standing together, they look more like brother and sister.
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Tian Linger looked at Lu Yuan.
She had thought she would have a lot to say.
She had thought she would have a lot of questions to ask.
Lu Yuan lied to everyone.
In other words, from the beginning, Lu Yuan joined the Qingyun Sect with a purpose. In these years, it seems that no one has ever been able to get into Lu Yuan's heart and see what kind of person Lu Yuan is.
Among the many people deceived by Lu Yuan, Tian Linger undoubtedly occupies a very important position.
Childhood sweethearts.
Maybe not in Lu Yuan's opinion.
But in Tian Linger's eyes, yes!
After all, Lu Yuan is an adult. Although at his current level of cultivation, it is easy to change his gender or adjust his physical age, but mentally, he is undoubtedly an adult.
However, no one expected that the relationship would turn sour.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems normal.
When a being whose knowledge, knowledge, ability and all aspects far exceeds that of anyone else becomes your childhood playmate, for a five or six-year-old little girl, in the ten years before she reaches the age of sixteen, this childhood playmate His status in her heart will undoubtedly be very high.
People are fragile.
When I encounter something that cannot be solved, I want to ask for help.
If the person being asked for help can solve the problem, there will be worship.
Over time, this kind of admiration accumulated and became a kind of mysterious trust, just like Lu Yuan faked his death to escape. No matter what, Tian Linger maintained a disbelieving view in his heart.
certainly.
This does not affect Tian Linger's recognition of the facts.
Duplicitous people are common at all times.
Therefore, when talking about his feelings for Tian Linger, Lu Yuan actually felt a little guilty, because he did not expect that Tian Linger would become crooked after being raised by him. Although he did not want to use the word "filial piety deteriorated" to describe it, But in a sense, this is true.
Therefore, when Lu Yuan and Tian Linger met again, even though they both wanted to say something, they couldn't say anything for a while.
"Baguio?"
"You stay."
After a moment of silence, Lu Yuan sighed, then waved to Baguio who was not far away, then turned his head and said to Lu Xueqi behind him:
"You stay for a while too."
"Some problems really need to be solved."
"I don't want to drag our feet on this."
"But if you want to reject me, or even have made all the psychological preparations for rejection, then you don't have to stay."
Baguio slowly walked to Lu Yuan's side.
He glanced at Lu Xueqi and then at Tian Linger.
Then, he hugged Lu Yuan's arm.
He snorted softly, as if he was demonstrating.
Lu Xueqi couldn't help but frown.
Tian Linger also frowned and bit her lower lip.
But at this moment, Yan Hong, who was not far away, came over with Jin Ping'er, took a look at the current situation, and then said with a smile: "What are you talking about?"
"I haven't said it yet!"
Tian Linger wrinkled her face.
But he reacted quickly.
"etc!"
"What are you doing here?"
"Someone only called the three of us!"
The little senior sister gradually found her little tsundere.
But Yan Hong doesn't accept this trick.
On some things, she was willing to give in.
But on other things, she never backed down.
Cultivation of immortals, to put it bluntly, is to cultivate one's body and let the body continue to evolve. On the other hand, it is to cultivate one's own soul to ensure that the soul becomes stronger and can better control one's body.
In terms of physical cultivation, what is needed is actually very simple. It can be summarized in two points: resources and hard work!
But when it comes to spiritual cultivation, it requires far more than resources and effort. Sometimes, you even have to take actions that are completely opposite to your efforts to ensure that this tight nerve does not break.
Inner demons are special creatures created under such circumstances, specifically used to stir up the tight nerves in the hearts of immortal cultivators.
Once challenged, the practitioner will become possessed.
However, if that's all it is, the inner demon is far from being a problem. All you need to do is get rid of it before it takes action.
The difficulty of dealing with inner demons is that no cultivator can use any means to exterminate the inner demons. Just like the Fifty-Nine Great Dao, the slightest difference is actually the inner demon.
Because nothing can be perfect.
Therefore, the best way to solve the inner demons is not to suppress the inner demons, or to use magic to solve the inner demons as soon as you notice them. The best way should be to resolve the inner demons.
For example: the inner demons generated after being defeated need to be defeated again to remove the opponent. If you fail again and again, it is likely to encourage the inner demons and completely become a demon.
If you ignore it, you may suddenly recall the failure scene at a critical moment in your practice, which will lead to a lack of confidence in the practitioner.
Once the confidence is insufficient, the cultivator has no need to continue practicing!
Any cultivator is a stubborn person!
It can be said that their spiritual thoughts are very pure.
Even if the direction of spiritual purity is different...
Therefore, until the critical moment, a cultivator will never doubt the correctness of what he or she is doing. Once a cultivator has doubts, it will be a disaster for the cultivator himself!
This is a calamity of the heart!
Lu Yuan felt deeply about this.
This calamity cannot be avoided.
Even the practitioner himself may not be aware of it.
Take Lu Yuan himself as an example:
In the early days, when he was in the Holy Soul Village of Douluo Continent, because he knew that he was a time traveler, he developed a certain degree of pride. He thought that Tang San was just an ancient person who traveled to Douluo, and his knowledge was far inferior to him, and his thinking was not as good as him. He is flexible.
Therefore, he confidently presented himself.
Then, Tang Hao gave him a wave of dimensionality reduction blows.
Regarding this past incident, although Lu Yuan still feels very angry when he thinks about it, looking at it from another perspective, Tang Hao has completely woken him up.
After all, before he traveled through time, he was in a stable society. Although there would be situations where his boss made things difficult for him, the biggest problem was that he would only use words but not actions. The company is fired!
And, no matter what, there are laws to follow.
At most, it’s just a question of whether the person knows it or not.
There are so many laws, and most people don't have the ability to remember them all, but since they are there, it can at least give ordinary people some confidence.
But in the world of Douluo, if you continue to hold this attitude of being reasonable if you can, and firing people if you can't, you will undoubtedly offend many people.
To put it bluntly, if you continue to face everyone with this attitude, you may die one day without even knowing how you died!
Hate returns to hate.
The facts still need to be acknowledged.
Here, he experienced his first heart tribulation.
He chose to go dark, look at the world with more extreme thinking, and face everyone with more cruelty and calmness, even if doing so would make him increasingly insecure and possibly contract Cao Cao's suspicion.
But he doesn't want to get hurt again!
And his second heart calamity was in the Eye of Ice and Fire.
That was when he dreamed back to his previous life again, saw his ordinary self, and realized that the time traveler is not omnipotent, nor is he the protagonist of a world, because the protagonist of the world is always only the world itself.
Looking back at the past, it is so ridiculous.
After seeing the Ice and Fire Eyes, he seemed to be able to feel his own growth, but so far, he had not dared to confirm whether this was an illusion.
The biggest mistake people make from mistakes is to unknowingly fall into another mistake on the basis of denying the previous mistake.
Everything must be reversed.
Therefore, even if you made a mistake, it is still a mistake to completely deny the previous mistake before you understand the nature of the mistake!
And his third heart calamity was in the God-killing battle.
Although he had seen all kinds of helpless things happening in this world a long time ago, this was the first time he experienced it personally.
Did Rakshasa do something wrong?
Nothing wrong.
Did he do something wrong again?
Nothing wrong either.
Did God Shura do something wrong?
Protecting shortcomings is even more correct.
If he didn't dare to protect his own woman, even if he knew that the result would be good for him, Lu Yuan would look down on God Shura.
Did the gods do something wrong?
In a sense, yes.
As gods, they view humans as humans view a group of ants. Humans will not pity ants, so the gods will not pity humans.
Heaven and earth are chess pieces, and life is a piece.
Lu Yuan hated this approach.
But he also admitted that this is indeed a very suitable reason.
Just like humans cannot ask ants to understand human thoughts, to the gods, human condemnation is so fragile, even if it turns a deaf ear, it is still a matter of importance!
As for the gods targeting soul beasts...
It's normal to think according to human thinking.
When the Dragon God was still there, the five law enforcement gods could only be regarded as a bunch of bastards. At that time, the five law enforcement gods could not defeat the crazy Dragon God. In the end, it was the Dragon God who relied on his remaining sanity. This created an opportunity for God Shura to kill himself.
No one wants to see such an existence reappear one day.
In particular, at that time, the soul beast clan represented by the Dragon God competed with the human race represented by the gods and ruled across the river. Even if the Dragon God wanted to be Xiang Yu, no one stipulated that the gods could not be Liu Bang!
While you are sick, I will kill you.
It can only be said that the Dragon God went crazy at the wrong time, and also left a mess for the orcs, killing all the skeletal power that could be used.
Almost none of the Nine Dragon Kings died happily.
Therefore, it cannot be said that the gods do not practice martial ethics.
So the question arises: since everyone is right, how did the contradiction arise?
After it occurs, how to solve it?
That was the third heart tribulation Lu Yuan had experienced.
He seemed to be able to understand Brother Zheng's mood, determination, and wishes back then, instead of being like a melon-eating crowd who just felt the blood boiling but couldn't see the inner entanglement of the war between heaven and man!
The fourth time was the Jin Renfeng rebellion.
It was the first accident in history that was beyond his control, and it was also a denial of his ability. It used the cruelest facts to tell him a truth: even people who are born with knowledge will do wrong things. Some unexpected things may make the original plan uncontrollable, so don't underestimate the enemy at any time, even if you have the power to subvert the world.
It can be summed up in one word: awe!
This is also the fundamental reason why Longying Bookstore has quietly developed the power to subvert the overall situation, and why it took five years for the Blood Refining Hall to destroy the Ten Thousand Poison Sect.
I am very sure, and I will hide three points as a backup.
There are nine points for sure, and four points are hidden as a backhand.
Confidence below five points will not be considered.
The premise is that the current situation still allows him to operate...
All in all, if there is no guarantee that the plan will succeed, Lu Yuan would rather continue to develop his strength than go to stud.
Even if he has the capital to make a comeback...
However, some regrets left by failure are irreparable!
The fifth time is to slay demons in the Western Regions.
The situation was terrible.
But that time, he completely understood the meaning of the word "decisive".
Risking a blitzkrieg requires decisiveness.
Something like courage is actually given by strength.
But whether one can seize the opportunity depends on the commander's vision and judgment. The vision depends on experience and theory, and the judgment depends on decisiveness.
Information can be deceptive.
But it certainly won’t be.
The subsequent slaying of monsters and saving people, including making Li Muchen the new emperor of the Western Region, all tested his determination.
Because at that time, no matter whether he chose to kill the demon or not to save people, he was actually ashamed of his heart, but continuing to hesitate would only make things more complicated, and might even cause both parties to reject him.
Just like Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang.
Ge Nie wanted to save two people, but failed to save either one.
Wei Zhuang only saved one person, but he did save it.
Since no matter what choice he makes, he is the only one who can decide his will. Even if others try to persuade him, they will have another completely opposite answer, telling him that he cannot give up on both sides.
Indecisiveness leads to disaster.
Therefore, his fifth mental calamity was decisiveness.
The sixth heart calamity is emotion.
Determination and emotion seem to conflict.
Men's preferences are almost the same: beautiful.
Then according to this big category, different small categories are divided according to personal preferences, which has never changed since ancient times.
But in terms of feelings, there are some places where you cannot act too decisively. It is not appropriate to use a sharp knife to cut through the mess here. A more suitable method is to stew over a low fire and to govern a big country like cooking small delicacies.
Carefully enter into a relationship.
Then, maintain it carefully.
Passionate and sentimental are two different concepts.
Like and get are also two concepts.
Just like he dared to bet with his life whether Tushan Honghong would accept him or not, there was nothing wrong with making some efforts to pursue another relationship without affecting anyone.
But after defeating Tu Shan Honghong's defense, he no longer used such quick and violent methods. Instead, he adopted a daily approach to getting along with each other, constantly adapting the two people's daily living habits.
After all, living life is different from falling in love.
Falling in love may be peaceful, but it can also be vigorous. If youth has no regrets, it is not youth.
But life is warm.
At most, create some small romance.
Although in the eyes of different people, the degree of small romance is also different. For example, an ordinary person can buy a bouquet of flowers to create a small romance, and he can easily create a sea of flowers to create a small romance, but the middle This feeling is completely different from being in love.
This feeling can be settled.
It's like a jar of daughter's red.
The longer it is buried, the more fragrant the wine will be.
And the seventh heart tribulation...
This time it is!
Every heart tribulation seems to be a growth.
While his strength is improving rapidly, his cognitive level is also constantly improving, and his perspective on things has gradually become sharper and deeper.
Same reason.
The further back you go, the harder it is for the heart calamity to occur.
But every time it happens, it's harder than the last time.
Therefore, Lu Yuan was silent for a long time.
Until everyone from the Demon Sect came down the mountain...
Until the Allied Forces of the Righteous Way cultivate...
Until the older generation of immortal cultivators were reminiscing about the past...
He spoke slowly.
"You must have understood what I showed you before. Even if you don't understand, you can ask others."
"What I want to talk about now is the future."
Having said this, Lu Yuan paused slightly.
After observing the expressions of Lu Xueqi and others, he added lightly:
"For me, it is almost an inevitable trend to break through the barriers of this world and enter another world in order to seek a higher upper limit for my continuous cultivation."
"I can indeed live forever."
"When the consciousness of the world merges with each other, all the previous immortals will live forever, which is equivalent to starting over at a time node. The past will not be taken into account, and the new ones will follow the latest world rules."
"But I can't stay here forever."
"I am the one who wants to leave."
"It's like leaving Xiao Wu, Tu Shan Honghong and the others."
"So, if you choose to accept me, then you must be mentally prepared to accept everything about me, including waiting for me. However, you can also try to break through the world's barriers. In this way, you can also ascend and enter another world to seek Higher ceiling.”
"So, this is not a unilateral request on my part."
"It's a two-way proposal."
"On this point, Tushan Honghong and I have also said that it is just that it is too difficult to break through the world barrier. You will most likely not be able to succeed. You will have to wait for me to take you away when I come back in the future."
"Or, true unification."
"So, I hope to give you a title."
"But I don't know if you are willing."
"Especially Xue Qi and Ling'er, I don't know how to deal with it until now. After all, it is my body that is here at Qingyun Sect, and most of my consciousness is still here."
"I also understand your dilemma."
"Xue Qi's dilemma is between good and evil."
"Ling'er's dilemma lies with her relatives."
"I can understand you, but I don't expect you to understand me. Since the choice is two-way, you can naturally reject me for these reasons."
"As Ling'er said when he left last time, we really need to think about it carefully."
"Then now..."
Lu Yuan's eyes were deep and his face was calm: "Can you give me an answer?"
"Can."
Yan Hong said calmly from the side.
Jin Ping'er raised her hand in agreement.
Tian Linger has already thought about this.
She smiled, a rare bit of a lady: "I want to go with you."
Baguio helplessly held her forehead.
She didn't need to express her stance.
Because among all the confidante, she was the first to discover Lu Yuan's true identity. As long as she didn't give up, Lu Yuan would never give up on her.
Therefore, Lu Xueqi was the only one left who had not answered.
Lu Xueqi naturally sensed this atmosphere.
There was silence for a moment.
Then, he asked calmly: "Lu Yuan, I hope you can answer me directly, where will our world go in the future?"
"Fight."
"cooperate."
Lu Yuan replied in a deep voice.
Then, he simply explained:
"Unification is certainly a great idea, but this great idea requires sufficient strength as the cornerstone. If there is not enough strength, the best way is to form an alliance with other worlds and then fight or invade those worlds that are not allies."
"Worth to talk about."
"The above is not your decision."
“It’s the world that has the final say.”
"Because of the lack of resources, the best way for the world to become stronger is to plunder, because it is necessary to prevent other worlds from uniting against it, so the only remaining way is to form alliances."
"Fighting with spears."
"An alliance is a shield."
"At most, the methods of fighting and forming alliances are different, or some details are different. There are only these two ways. It's very simple."
Lu Xueqi blinked.
Lu Yuan's thoughts rarely left him.
"In other words, when the fighting begins, we will fight against opponents from another world, and everyone in our world will become comrades?"
"Does it mean this?"
Lu Yuan didn't quite understand what Lu Xueqi meant for a while, but based on what Lu Xueqi just said, he still nodded seriously: "That's right."
"So, since we are future comrades-in-arms, there is no issue of position."
Lu Xueqi concluded seriously.
In a big circle.
Finally, the picture is clear.
As soon as these words came out, both Baguio and Tian Linger and others understood what Lu Xueqi meant, and Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh.
Suppose there are two tigers in a mountain forest, they will inevitably fight. However, if there are dozens of jackals, tigers and leopards watching eagerly outside this mountain forest, it is possible for these two tigers in the forest to join forces. .
What is this called?
Use external pressure to relieve internal stress!
Unanimity to the outside world is the oldest topic.
Seeing Lu Yuan laughing, Lu Xueqi, who had felt happy just now, suddenly felt a little embarrassed and annoyed. She snorted coldly and turned away to look at Lu Yuan.
Baguio also pinched Lu Yuan hard.
Then, he complained in a duplicitous way:
"Aren't you going to coax him?"
"Did you see it?"
"Everyone is jealous!"
Tian Linger interjected from the side: "It's as if you are not jealous."
"What did you say?"
Baguio's willow eyebrows stood upright.
Amid the laughter and curses, the atmosphere softened unconsciously.
"Seeing them is like seeing us."
Yuji sighed.
Shuiyue said softly from the side: "That's right, that certain person was pretty good at attracting bees and butterflies back then!"
"Then what if it is really unanimous?"
Wan Jianyi asked curiously from the side.
Immediately, he was greeted by two white eyes.
"If you miss me, go to the Ghost King Sect to see me."
After that, Youji turned and left.
"Senior Brother Wan, do you have the heart to go?"
Shuiyue looked at Wan Jianyi eagerly.
Wan Jianyi's expression suddenly became wonderful.
He glanced helplessly at Lu Yuan, who was enjoying the blessing of Qi Ren at the foot of the mountain, and silently withdrew the magic power attached to his eyes.
no way.
There is no comparison between people!
Moreover……
Compared to a monster?
People can break through the boundaries and come over!
They can't even get out!
Envy is the only way to express sadness!
