Above the nine heavens, golden light shines brightly.
Each step is made of gold, exuding a fascinating and sacred atmosphere.
This is a golden ladder to the sky.
Su Bujin stood at the bottom of the ladder, looking up at the ladder that led straight to the sky, with no end in sight.
Or maybe, there is no end at all.
"here it is......."
Su Bujin looked around and found that there was nothing else here except her and the golden ladder.
Su Bujin's eyes returned to the ladder.
The ladder was inserted into the sky, making it impossible to see the scene clearly, but Su Bujin keenly felt a hint of transcendence.
That is the breath of immortality.
"This is the road to becoming an immortal, right?"
Although it was the first time he saw it, Su Bujin already had a rough guess.
Su Bujin stood still for a long time, and finally she made a move.
I saw Su Bujin taking one step forward and ascending the ladder to heaven.
After setting foot on the ladder to heaven, Su Bujin discovered that her cultivation was also missing, and there was no trace of Qi in her body. In other words, at this time, she was completely an ordinary person.
It seems that if you want to climb this ladder, you can only climb it step by step.
Su Bujin looked at the golden ladder and then continued moving forward.
First level, second level, third level...
In this way, without borrowing any external force, Su Bujin really moved forward step by step on the ladder to heaven.
An hour passed.
Now Su Bujin has a mortal constitution, and she will also get tired.
I saw some beads of sweat beginning to appear on Su Bujin's forehead, but his breathing was still steady.
Two hours passed.
Su Bujin's physical strength was obviously exhausted, Sakura's white robe was also a little wet, and her breathing was no longer stable.
Six hours passed.
Most of Su Bujin's physical strength was exhausted, and the cherry blossom white robe was already soaked. Even his breathing became rapid and his steps became disordered.
Twelve hours passed.
Su Bujin was too tired to stand up. She used her hands and feet together, and it took a long time to accumulate strength to go up a step. However, she had already exhausted her strength too much, and there were large traces of her sweat on the steps behind her.
Climbing the ladder to heaven for a day and a night without eating, drinking or resting is something that ordinary people can't bear. Now Su Bujin is just an ordinary person.
thump!
Finally, Su Bujin, who was extremely tired, half-knelt on the ladder.
tired!
This was the only feeling in Su Bujin's mind.
She really didn't have any strength left and couldn't take another step forward.
At this time, a disembodied voice came from the sky: "Su Bujin, where is your path?"
road?
Su Bujin panted rapidly, feeling exhausted taking over her whole body. Fortunately, she still had the last bit of clarity left in her brain, which allowed her to still have the ability to think.
Mortals practice Dharma, and immortals practice Tao.
If you want to become an immortal, you need to find your own way.
This voice asks what its Tao is.
So, what is your own way?
Regarding this question, Su Bujin said without hesitation: "My way... is to keep making progress, keep breaking through, reach the top, and become the strongest."
To become the most powerful is Su Bujin's goal, and it is also the goal of most ordinary cultivators.
Isn't it just to practice hard to become the strongest?
The disembodied voice said: "The pursuit of the most powerful is the foundation of cultivation. This is not the Tao."
As soon as the words fell, the sky suddenly became dark, strong winds blew, and thunder and lightning roared. The originally golden ladder also lost its luster at this time, and Su Bujin's figure looked particularly thin at this time.
And the patches of colorful auspicious clouds below the ladder have turned into an endless ocean of darkness, exuding an aura of terror and despair.
Hoho!
Suddenly, a strong wind came, like a roaring dragon. Su Bujin's mortal body was unable to resist the force of the strong wind and was blown away.
At the last moment, Su Bujin stretched out a hand and grabbed the steps of the ladder to prevent him from falling into the dark ocean below.
And all this seemed to be punishment for Su Bujin's wrong answer.
Su Bujin's body was extremely tense, and she didn't dare to move at all. Her brain became much clearer at this time, because if she were not careful, she would fall.
"Su Bujin, where is your path?"
It's that disembodied voice again, and it's the previous question again.
Su Bujin did not answer immediately this time, but began to think carefully.
What is your own way?
At this time, Su Bujin's mind began to reminisce about the past since he started practicing.
Su Bujin still remembered that her first mission after being able to practice was to the Liu family in Maple City. At that time, she went with Gu Jie to complete it. It was also that time that she met Liu Xuan.
Later, she and Jun Lintianxia and others went to Middle-earth to make a big fuss, and then went to the Western Regions to compete. In Wuji Mountain, she witnessed the Demon Prison War that shocked the world, the Qianfang Conference with all kinds of tricks, and the subsequent help of Wuliang Nu. A trip to Shangting Palace.
Later, the Five Heroes Meeting with many outstanding people, the unprecedented fierce battle in the East China Sea, the trip to the mysterious Flame Cave in the East Continent, the Lingshan Festival at the peak of the West Continent, several encounters in the Forbidden Land and the Lost Continent, the journey through time and space to the Huangxin Brocade, The pinnacle battle of the royal city...
Thinking back on it this way, in just forty years, I have experienced things that ordinary people would never encounter in eight lifetimes.
If I had to find out what these experiences of my own have in common...
A flash of light flashed in Su Bujin's tired eyes, and an idea flashed in his mind and he said: "It's protection, it's protection for the people I care about around me!"
Every experience depends not only on Su Bujin's personal strength, but also on the concerted efforts of the people around him when facing a life-and-death crisis.
Since the death of Emperor Zilong and others, Su Bujin has paid more attention to these friends around him. It is precisely because of the existence of these people that Su Bujin can feel warmth and comfort.
This should be your own way.
The disembodied voice said again: "All living beings have feelings, and protecting the people you care about is the instinct of living beings. This is not the way."
As soon as the words fell, there was a loud thunder in the dark clouds in the sky, and then, with a roar, a bolt of lightning came down and struck Su Bujin's hand mercilessly.
Su Bujin's hand was suddenly struck by lightning and was bloody, but she gritted her teeth and endured it, still holding on to the ladder, not daring to let go.
boom!
However, a second thunderbolt fell.
"ah!"
Su Bujin couldn't bear it anymore. With her mortal body, she really couldn't bear the pain that penetrated into the bone marrow. With a scream, she finally let go of her hand.
Below her was the boundless ocean of darkness.
Plop!
Su Bujin's body fell into the dark ocean without any suspense.
