Chapter 856 Different Values
"So, you really want to die?"
Compared to those men who knew nothing, Sindra knew more . She knew very well that this woman who called herself Ke would not wait for the man named Li Ke to come back.
Because according to what she said, she was the man named Li Ke.
"Yes, but it's not death. My current situation is rather special. It can't be considered a clone, nor can it be considered... Never mind. Just think of it as a clone."
Li Ke sighed when he saw Sindra's pure face that had not been polluted by knowledge.
Although the girl in front of him is also hundreds of years old, to be honest, apart from knowing how to read, her education level is not even as high as that of elementary school students on Earth. In this case, it is really difficult to make her understand what the Daluo timeline is independent and the past and future exist at the same time.
Because judging from Sindra's experience, her teacher may not know the realm of "Daluo". To be precise, it is a question whether there are enough transcendent people in this world who can leave behind a legacy.
After all, those who enter the Tao through force basically will not come back and will start their own business.
Those who take the civil service exam would naturally hope that as many people as possible would fail the exam. It is a natural monopoly.
As for those who do good deeds and accumulate virtue, there is currently no one in this world who can transcend by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. Perhaps Bard is one of them, because Bard is a person who will protect the residents of this world to the next world when this world is destroyed.
But Li Ke has never seen Bard once since he arrived in Runeterra. This character is as unpopular as he is in the League.
It can be said that this guy is a mystery that cannot be seen at all.
Like the Dragon King, they serve the cosmic order but are also beyond it . The cosmic order can control them only because they are willing to be controlled, not because the power of the universe can really control them.
The Dragon King obviously had no interest in sharing his power with those who, in his eyes, were not capable of understanding the mysteries of the stars, while Bard clearly preferred a protector. Both of them clearly did not have a way to directly cultivate to transcendence, and could only use their own power to help others transcend the universe.
Or rather, they had never thought about such a thing at all.
But Li Ke also knew that the path to transcendence was extremely difficult. If he had not inexplicably awakened the ability to reincarnate for hundreds of lifetimes, he might not be able to do all of this.
"So, your true identity is really a lustful man named Li Ke? How ridiculous, if it's true..."
When Sindra thought of the witch in front of her who had made clothes for her and asked to take a bath together, she instantly felt a chill, but she immediately thought of another problem.
"Then why did you become a woman? You like those..."
She subconsciously thought of a certain love affair, which was not taboo in Ionia because the love of the Ionians was more focused on spiritual feelings rather than physical ones.
To be honest, it was the same India that Li Ke knew.
The spiritual cultivation realm is extremely transcendent and has reached an advanced level, but the actual performance and reality...
Those who understand will understand.
There is an advanced aesthetic that is completely disconnected from material things.
But then she shook her head.
Because Li Ke has said more than once to be careful of the real her.
"No, those guys have already fallen in love with you. It seems that even if you ask to join them, it's not impossible. It seems that there is nothing wrong with your sexual orientation... or it is very problematic, so what's going on?"
Sindra's eyes were full of curiosity.
"How should I put it... It's like a spell, a kind of spiritual suggestion and concentration."
The witch explained that before, because they were undergoing transformation, they could only use their respective bodies to release their respective abilities, but this would no longer be necessary after the transformation was completed.
Although he can now use this pure power of the witch as a man, if he really uses it, the witch's state of mind, body, and personality are more powerful.
This is a psychological suggestion. It's not that it cannot be eliminated, but there is no need to do so.
Besides, they have already been released, so there is no need to replace them.
"A suggestion of my own?"
“Yes, because this is a posture I once had.”
Li Ke nodded. After reaching his level, species, gender, and even dimension were no longer something that could stop him. If he wanted, he could even change his sexual orientation to that of a two-dimensional creature.
But he wouldn't do that.
The purpose of becoming a Buddha or a patriarch is to make your life better, not to make yourself different from the person you remember.
“I see…”
Sindra nodded thoughtfully, and she understood Li Ke's magical method.
Just like when she uses her power, she will subconsciously swing her body or chant spells and imagine the power of nature in her mind. This is a way to increase concentration and can effectively increase the power of her own moves. It is common sense.
"Is it just that a person's life is for a certain ability?"
She couldn't help but ask. She believed that the incredibly strong Li Ke should be able to do such a thing, but she still didn't quite understand.
She has lived a tiring life and she hasn't even understood it. And did Li Ke become a woman just for this pure power?
"It is people's natural right to desire a different life, Sindra."
Li Ke smiled and gave the reason and answer.
"Live for something, for a truth, a belief, a goal, no matter what it is, how you live is always up to you. This is the only freedom that life can choose, whether it is God or mortal. Poverty or illness, these things will indeed hinder how you live, but they only determine whether you can achieve your goals, not how you live. Achieving goals is actually a luxury."
The witch stretched out her hand and a petal fell into her hand.
"But it is precisely because of this that the best thing for life is to achieve the results that you want. However, in this world, there are some lives that, after achieving the results they want, will pity those lives that cannot achieve the results they expect, and then help them. There are many such people, because everyone knows that it is very difficult for a person to get the results he wants."
Li Ke chuckled. He relied on the power of reincarnation for a hundred lifetimes. To some extent, his will was very firm.
That is, he will always do what he wants to do, no matter what his personality is or what his identity is, he has always been like this.
Just like his name.
Li Ke.
immediately.
No, or rather, all life is like this.
This is true even for a shrine maiden. Although she is beautiful and quiet, there is never any possibility that she will not do what she has to do.
"There are some truths that you don't understand yet. These thoughts are just my thoughts as a 'witch'. Sindra, you still have to see for yourself what the world is like."
The witch walked to the location they had reserved - under a sacred tree in the village.
The sacred trees of Ionia have incredible powers, allowing people to see the souls of their deceased relatives when the flowers bloom in spring.
This can be considered a privilege for the Ionians, because in other places, where the connection with the spiritual realm is not very stable, the afterlife is not as beautiful as the Ionian afterlife.
Because Ionia is closely connected to the spiritual realm, the Ionians' afterlife is almost a paradise. They can even choose whether to go to the depths of the spiritual realm, the other side of that world, or wait for their loved ones here and live forever in the spiritual realm.
Such a thing is unbelievable to everyone else in Runeterra, but it is the truth.
The death of every Ionian is not a simple death - the premise is that they die on this land. For Ionians who die on other lands, there is almost no possibility for their souls to return to their homeland.
"After all, this is just a part of me communicating with you."
The witch looked at Syndra with a smile, and slowly sat down on the protruding branch of the spiritual tree. After seeing that the people of the Order of the Balance successfully arranged the nodes, she knew that her mission was about to end.
"So...are you really going to die?"
Syndra felt that a force was penetrating the spiritual realm and the real world. The ninjas from the Order of Balance all sensed this at this moment. They rushed over quickly, but for the priestess , only a moment was enough.
The magic circle quickly took effect on the land of Ionia, and she looked at Syndra with a smile.
"If you are worried, you can come to Piltover to find me, but just watch from a distance. Otherwise, I will attack you."
The witch's smile brought petals all over the sky, and in an instant, the village was surrounded by flowers.
Syndra looked at the witch and wanted to say something, but in the end she could only sigh.
"I will, but if you lie to me, I will crush the head of that person named Li Ke with my sword!"
The witch, who had already injected her power into Ionia, sighed and her body began to slowly transform into petals.
"Uh... I've already advised you not to get close to me..."
Her sigh echoed in Syndra's heart, and the late-coming ninjas could only watch in pain as the priestess dedicated everything she had to the earth.
At the same time——
“I hope Shen and Zed are okay.”
Li Ke, who was in another female body, complained silently, because in her sight, the expressions on Shen and Jie's faces were as if their wives had died.
"But it's really easy for me as a miko."
Looking at the Noxian Hand, Darius and his brother Draven being suppressed in front of him, Li Ke sighed.
She even felt that attacking Noxus was too easy.
The process of attacking Noxus was basically that she rode her horse to break through the remaining Noxian officers, tear apart their defenses, break into their manors, then announce the taxes set by Li Ke, then open the warehouses to release grain, let some people who were willing to get order organize themselves into militia training, and then ride alone to continuously defeat the Noxian army.
Then--
Then she had an army under her command that was neatly organized, well-disciplined, extremely strict in military discipline, and free of corruption.
This army is somewhat small in number.
There are only a hundred thousand of them, but in terms of quality, they are almost the same as her personal soldiers in the Three Kingdoms period. The stronger ones have even reached the level of basic unparalleled generals.
She really didn't expect how much Noxus longed for the strong, for a fair and strict order, and for a society that could allow the lower classes to have enough food and clothing and to survive without fighting each other.
A social environment in which promotions are given according to normal military merits and salaries are paid normally, and the army that comes to judge can instantly turn against the army in the midst of the soldiers' spontaneous shouting, can actually persist to this extent.
To be honest, she did feel that she had been too hesitant in the past.
What he had been concerned about and thought about before were things that would only appear among Demacia and their allies.
"Alas, I don't have enough experience."
Complaining in his heart, Li Ke looked at the hand of Noxus who was defeated by him and was unwilling to surrender.
Darius's reputation among the Noxians was ridiculously high. Even if he failed, many of these Noxians would want to speak well of him.
And Li Ke knew very well why.
Because Darius really doesn't covet your military achievements. He will give you the credit you deserve. And he is better at killing people than you and has better strategic ability than you.
Physically tough and able to survive any incredible situation.
And when he is fighting with you, he always shouts "Follow me". And when there is a mission that requires death, even if he has to send you, he will silently follow you.
Even the enemies will admire such soldiers and servicemen.
But the problem is that what Darius insisted on was simply commonplace to her.
She has enough energy and ability to ensure the purity of her team, so up to now, all the city-states she has conquered are clean, and all the officers under her are upright.
But even though Darius was unwilling to surrender to this place that all Noxians envied,
"So, why don't you surrender?"
Li Ke was very curious.
Darius looked at Li Ke and was silent for a while. He knew what Li Ke meant, but he just felt powerless. He has always been using his efforts to make Noxus better.
But eventually, a god came from the sky and made Noxus a better place, but it was no longer Noxus.
And although the capable and the strong are still given priority, there is less enthusiasm and extremeness.
A fanaticism that sacrifices the weak is not here.
Even if you are strong, you have to worry about the weak.
Those who fail to reach the ultimate level of strength cannot truly exist in this world!
