Xiaoyao then said with appreciation and praise:
"The way you just refused to cooperate with me is the reason why I agreed. You let me see myself back then. Of course, I know that you may not believe this.
"But actually we have more in common than you think. For example, your physique is called the Heretic Heavenly Demon Body, and the practice method I created is called Xiaoyao Heavenly Demon Gong."
Ma En looked at him with some confusion. Du Jin and their memories made him aware of this matter, but he had just completed the fusion and was still unable to use it well and "remember" the specific knowledge at will.
Xiaoyao said without waiting for him to remember:
"Many people think that calling my technique "Xiaoyao Tianmo" is just a metaphor. Many techniques and spells have the word "Tianmo" in their names to describe that my magic is very strong.
"But this is actually not my character. I call my technique this just because I am a demon.
"same as you."
Ma En blinked. His body seemed to have understood what this meant, and there was a bit of worry and surprise, but his actual head had not yet reacted.
"What is a demon?" Ma En did not wait for his body to remember.
Xiaoyao showed a reminiscing look and said:
"Heavenly demons are naturally demons from outside the world. In ancient times, monks used this word to refer to all kinds of evil demons in the vast universe, and now they will also use this word to refer to any evil demons outside the world of cultivation.
"Actually, you may still not understand why I am so firmly against Heavenly Court. After all, they treat me quite well. Under normal circumstances, I would indeed indulge in the dreams and illusions they made up, and constantly convince myself to ignore it. There are some contradictions in it, but there is one thing I still can't accept.
"That's the fact that they gathered all their spiritual energy in the world of cultivation. Knowing this was the opportunity for me to leave Heavenly Court and start to devote myself to Xiaoyao Dao. It made me deeply aware of the shortcomings of Heavenly Court, and it also led to my failure to I can't find a reason to convince myself that Fa Zai is constantly deceiving himself and others as he did in the past, constantly plundering the spiritual energy of the deserted world to nourish himself...
"Because I am from the Desolate Realm myself."
Ma En showed a surprised look.
Xiaoyao looked at Ma En with a smile:
"Yes, that's why I chose to leave the world of cultivation and come here. I'm not running away, but returning to my hometown where I really belong. This is why I can't accept what they did to us.
"If I were a person in the world of cultivation, I could find countless reasons to explain the rationality of their choice, and I could tell myself that mortals in the world of cultivation are indeed more worthy of the blessings of spiritual energy, but unfortunately...
"I'm not."
This finally explained Ma En's strange feeling. He had some doubts when talking to Xiaoyao. At that time, he found it particularly difficult to accept that the aura was plundered in the deserted world, which actually made Ma En feel a bit unreal.
After all, at that time, he was also a person in the world of cultivation in his own eyes. A practitioner who enjoyed the spirit gathering formation should not say such things. Moreover, if he was born in the world of cultivation, he would probably really feel that the world of cultivation Mortals who really deserve more auras because their morals are higher than theirs.
But if he was also born in the Desolate World, then everything can be explained.
No matter how many explanations there are for the Spirit Gathering Array in the world of cultivation, this one reason is enough for Xiaoyao.
He is the part of the people who are "sacrificed" in the choice.
"When I knew that the world I lived in in my previous life was being plundered by them," Xiaoyao said with a deep expression, "I could no longer accept and understand the conditions for their choices.
"When you stay out of the situation, you can use various methods to deceive yourself so that you can enjoy the various benefits you get with peace of mind, but it is completely different if you are the abandoned part of their choice.
"You really realize how problematic this is."
After a pause, Xiaoyao continued:
"I think you should be able to think of it now. In fact, many of the things I do are because of my identity. If I were a normal practitioner, it would be absolutely impossible for me to go deep into the desolate world.
"But I didn't come here to reclaim the desert. Let's put it this way, even if I didn't realize the Tao of Freedom and wasn't forced into this situation, I would still come back here at some point, because..."
Ma En said:
"Because you want to bring the knowledge and power of the world of cultivation back to your hometown?"
Xiaoyao smiled and nodded:
"Yes, I want you to be the first to get and feel the path I created, and I also want to bring back what belongs to 'us'.
“Even if someone kills me and stops me in the process, it’s not an unacceptable outcome.
"Because no matter what, this truth will remain here, and the method of practice will also be left here by me. You should have noticed that sometimes I will say things that are not necessary to tell you.
"For example, there is actually no need for me to tell you this now. The purpose of telling you this is not so that you can help me complete the Xiaoyao Dao, but to prevent me from unfortunately dying here.
"Enlightenment is the most important thing in my heart, but if I really die, I don't want to die as an intruder from the world of cultivation, and I don't want there to be no trouble after my death.
"If I really die here seeking the Tao, then I will at least leave behind the path of cultivation and the truth, so that you can know why our world has changed today, and what kind of magical and great abnormal system they have monopolized. .
"I want to bring the spiritual path back to the desolate world."
These words made Ma En sincerely express surprise, because Xiaoyao's words all sounded true. He did say a lot of unnecessary words when "calculating" himself - words that were meaningless to Xiaoyao itself.
But knowing that these are indeed what he said can plant the seeds of practice and truth.
In fact, Xiaoyao was definitely not worried that Ma En would kill him, but as he was born here, he knew very well how dangerous and terrifying the desolate world was, so he was not completely sure that he could successfully seek the Tao.
But no matter how difficult it is to become enlightened, you still have to move forward.
In addition to this, he naturally also considered the possibility of dying on the way. This was actually the reason why he had not allowed Du Jin or other disciples to break through to Yuanying. In fact, he had been able to do it long ago.
Because he originally trained these disciples to make wedding clothes for his new disciples.
He originally wanted to accept a disciple from the Desolate Realm and tell him the truth, so that even if he accidentally died on the way to seek the Tao, he could leave behind the inheritance and truth of the cultivation world.
He has no extravagant expectations that anyone else will take his own path after his death, but that doesn't matter, because he believes that someone will definitely take the path of resisting the rules of the cultivation world, and this is enough for him.
