Tianwei Chapter 302: Counterattack (12)
The huge waves shocked the world!
Turning a page of an ancient book was like opening up thousands of rivers. Even a fierce man like Wei Qingcang couldn't help but change color when he saw countless huge waves coming from the front.
It’s not that he is not strong enough, but he seems to be restrained by Wudian’s Taoism.
No matter how hard the axe is, it can split the waves but it cannot defeat the waves.
Wei Qingcang is such an extremely hard axe. He becomes stronger when facing a stronger opponent, but facing the weak splashes of water, he is at most a small boat.
As for Gamu... water and fire are incompatible, and his expression changed faster than Wei Qingcang's.
Facing the surging water, Wei Qingcang stood in front of us without hesitation and said: You hide behind, I don’t believe he can break my bronze armor!
I have experienced the attack of Wudian and know how powerful this kind of water wave is, so I couldn't help but say: If it really doesn't work, let's retreat first, this world should not be able to stop me.
Let's give it a try . Gamu stood firm, with the purple talisman corpse floating beside him, ready to help at any time.
They both made up their minds to give it a try. What else can I say? Just grit your teeth. If you die, you die. There's nothing to be afraid of!
The huge waves that surged like mountains were about to come over our heads. The unbearable pressure made Wei Qingcang bend slightly. Gamu's face was very ugly. Zi Fu Tian Shi was completely unable to withstand this pressure and had to merge with him to resist.
A strong wind suddenly blew in the surrounding wilderness.
Amid the sound of wind and waves, Gamu frowned and shouted to Wei Qingcang: Brother, I will defeat him with that move!
Although Wei Qingcang was bent, he was still full of courage. He clenched his fists, staring at the approaching huge waves, and shouted at Gamu: Stop talking nonsense! The Purple Talisman Heavenly Corpse is not something you can completely withstand. Stay still!
From what he said, we can understand that Gamu still has a powerful back-up plan. But this back-up plan is not something he can fully use. Perhaps when he uses it, he will die.
After Wei Qingcang finished speaking, he slammed his hands on the ground again and shouted: Red Earth!
The smoke of war rose again, but this time, everything was only within five meters of us.
The originally thin three-color smoke became thicker as the range narrowed. It was only then that I realized that this was not fog at all, but countless flames.
Unlike the purple talisman flame, this kind of flame was unbearable. Even if I hid behind Wei Qingcang, I still felt like I was in a furnace. As soon as a burning smell came into my nose, I could no longer smell anything else because even my sense of taste was destroyed by the high temperature.
Sizzling sounds continued to be heard, and the red and black flames within a five-meter range rose like pillars of fire, melting all the waves wherever they passed.
However, the huge waves behind continued, which made Gamu's face even gloomier.
I also feel very unwilling. I am almost successful, but there is always someone who interferes.
If you don't retreat... you will die! A loud voice rang out in the wilderness.
None of us three spoke. At this point, any words were superfluous. Three pairs of eyes stared at the surging waves, waiting for the moment when the signal fire was extinguished.
In fact, whether it is Wei Qingcang, Gamu or me, we all understand now that it is simply impossible to defeat Wudian and snatch the Taoist's body from him.
This, like the Eight Ropes, comes from the same ancient heritage as Tian Gang, and its power is as unfathomable as the sea.
We have to admit that we failed, failed miserably, without even any room for resistance.
The pinnacle of the world is still human beings.
And he represents the sky.
The wolf smoke was gradually suppressed, and Wei Qingcang's body bent more. Gamu clenched his fists, his face gloomy, but he did not attack again. Because apart from the last trick, he had no other way. As for whether it was worth it to exchange his life for the old Taoist, and whether it could really be exchanged, that was another matter.
However, the huge waves suddenly retreated and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In the wilderness, there was only that ancient book that supported the sky.
What is heaven... A leisurely voice came, seeming to be asking but not really asking.
What is ancient...
What is inheritance?
What is obsession?
He asked four times in a row, and I couldn't help but whisper to Gamu: Is this guy crazy? He was talking nonsense the last time he came, and I don't know what he was asking.
Do you see anything strange about this world? He asked again.
No. This time, Wei Qingcang spoke.
That is because you cannot see the heaven and earth. What you see is only the space between heaven and earth.
What do you want to do? Wei Qingcang asked doubtfully.
This is what everyone wants to know, what exactly is he going to do?
I just want to see the world clearly and know what is right and wrong. The man said: When the world was first created, there were people, gods, and things. There were sinking, ups and downs, mountains and rivers, and the sun and moon changed. Do you think this is the world?
This question is really difficult to answer. If you are not an idiot, you will definitely answer yes. But if you answer yes, it will feel like someone asked you a brain teaser question: should you kill the donkey or the pig first?
I am not a donkey, and I don’t want to be a pig. Wei Qingcang may think so too...
So he didn't say anything either.
That is not heaven and earth! The voice continued: It is a cage! We are the people trapped in the cage, we do not know how to resist, we can only obey. The so-called inheritance is nothing more than the will of heaven and earth. Our lives, our lives, all exist because of heaven and earth. If heaven wants us to live, we live, and if heaven wants us to die, we die.
The so-called inheritance is nothing but a joke that deceives oneself and others.
The so-called acting on behalf of God is nothing but a futile attempt to cover up fear.
How can we see the world if we can’t get out of the cage?
This guy... Wei Qingcang also frowned, because even he could hear that something was wrong with Wu Dian.
As a member of the Eight Ropes heritage, I am the one who can understand it best.
Wu Dian's words now seem to be complaining?
What does he want to do?
Going against the will of heaven?
This is totally different from what I expected. In my opinion, the inheritance of the four great families should follow tradition and go along with the will of heaven.
My mother died before due to some special reasons.
What about the Five Classics?
Why did he also develop such a rebellious heart?
The huge ancient book flickered, its light was restrained, and he turned into a human again.
Do you think I'm a little bit abnormal? He looked at us with a smile: Or, do you think I'm talking nonsense.
Wei Qingcang was still standing in front of us. He looked at the man from Wudian and said: It doesn’t matter whether you are talking nonsense or not, but we just want his body back.
Why his body? he asked.
I said: I have brought his soul back from the underworld, and as long as his body is still there, he can be resurrected.
Oh? It seems you paid a price. The man looked at me and then said: But you have to understand that the Five Elements Meridian is the Five Classics, but the Five Classics are not the Five Elements Meridian. As long as he is still here, the Five Classics cannot be born. Do you think this world needs the Five Elements Meridian or the Five Classics?
I don't know... I shook my head and said: This question cannot be answered, because in my mind, there is only the thought of resurrecting him. As for what will happen next, it is not within my consideration. What's more, the world is now a mess, and the secular world occupies most of the fields. Cultivation is no longer the mainstream. Whether it is the Five Elements Meridians or the Five Classics, they can't have any impact on this world. Maybe you will say that what I see is only between heaven and earth, not the real heaven and earth. But for us ordinary people, what we see is heaven and earth. Seeing is believing, we believe what we see with our own eyes, because we live here and die here.
He looked at me, smiled, and nodded: Go on.
I hummed and said: Just like you said, this world is a cage. So the Emperor of Qinling wants to become a Taoist and break the cage to escape. Maybe your goals are different, but the essence is the same. But you have to understand that if a carp can jump over the dragon gate, it will jump at the risk of its life. But if it can't jump over, or even can't find the dragon gate at all, it must be content to be a carp. Because this is fate, you can't break it, so you have to build it more firmly.
Is this how you survive? he asked.
I guess so.
What about you? Do you think so too? He looked at Wei Qingcang and Gamu.
They both looked at me and nodded.
The man laughed and said: "Even with eight ropes, I still can't escape this vortex. Do you know why I ask these questions?"
I don't know, I replied.
He smiled and said: I want to know some answers, because I have gained some answers from my understanding of everything nowadays. Only by arguing with each other can we find the truth.
He glanced around, as if reminiscing about something, and said: I have inherited the Five Classics for countless years. As one of the four families, I have always been walking in a cage. Occasionally, I look at the vague influence outside the cage, but I know that I am powerless to open those obstacles. I can only deceive myself and regard myself as the controller of the cage, and continue to live like this from generation to generation.
No one has ever thought about what would happen if we stopped living this way. Maybe we would perish, or maybe we would find a bright future. However, no one tried, because an old concept bound us.
What do you want to say? Wei Qingcang interrupted him.
You destroyed the Five Classics, but you also revived them, he said.
This is another contradictory statement, but it seems to contain a mystery.
Today the answer will be revealed. I don't want to be a caged walker anymore. As one of us, are you ready to accept it? He looked at me and asked.
A part? Accept what? I asked in confusion.
He smiled and shook his head, saying: "You still haven't figured it out, so it's best for you to take over. After all, no matter what, I was once a member of the Heaven's Executioner, and I can't just abandon all of this."
Huh? You mean...
He held it in one hand, and the colorful and smooth light trembled like water waves, gorgeous and charming. At this time, before anyone could react, he casually swung his hand, and the light, like a swimming fish, went directly into my body and disappeared.
You... Wei Qingcang was a little surprised, while Gamu was more direct and stretched out his hand to hit him. But Wei Qingcang thought of something and stopped him.
The man laughed and said: "If you lose something, you will gain something. If you are free from restraints, you will have a way out. For those who have never thought of breaking free, please pass on this cage for me."
