Volume 12 is missing Chapter 10 If Heaven Forbids Me, I Will Go Against Heaven
The last two sentences came from behind, not in front of me.
Lu Qingshan turned around in shock - even though he had learned many extremely shocking secrets in his previous conversation with Chu Mushen, now that someone directly pointed out that he was not from this world, he was still infinitely shocked and surprised.
However, with his current mentality and strength, he would not panic.
What came into view was a very tall man, wearing a very low-key gray robe, with a very unique temperament .
The man looked like he was in his prime, but his hair, which should have been jet-black, was mixed with dozens or even hundreds of silver strands, which were difficult to conceal.
It was this silver color that made Lu Qingshan instantly realize the identity of the visitor.
The contemporary master of Tianji Temple is Qi Butian.
"You're here." Chu Mushen also put down the spoon in his hand, and with a flash in his eyes, he also served Qi Butian a bowl of fish soup.
Qi Butian sat down without hesitation, took the bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
"This is the first time we meet, let me introduce myself," Qi Butian put down the bowl in his hand and said, "Tianji Temple, Qi Butian."
Without waiting for Lu Qingshan to answer, he said, "You don't need to introduce yourself. Although this is the first time we meet, I have actually been paying attention to you for a long time."
"Pay attention to me?" Lu Qingshan looked at the deep meaning in Qi Butian's eyes, not knowing how to react.
"Because of the matter of Prince Qing, I once had an exchange with Qingyun Sword Immortal in Chang'an." Qi Butian looked at Lu Qingshan with interest for a long time, then said slowly.
"At that time, I told him that no one knew what the master of Dongming Temple saw in the Tianji Mirror, but the reign title was Tianyuan, which means the Tianyuan is the source of the chess. And Tianyuan refers to you."
Lin Dongming, former national teacher of Daxia and former abbot of Tianji Temple, used the Tianji Mirror to steal the secrets of heaven before his death. He predicted that Daxia would be in unprecedented chaos and would name the new era Tianyuan.
"If jade is not polished, it will not become a useful object, so I hope he can carve this rough jade like you carefully."
"It was because of what I said that the Qingyun Sword Immortal, who was originally still wavering, decided to appoint you as the young master even though your cultivation level was only at the sixth level at that time." Qi Butian said shockingly.
"But actually, I concealed something in the first half of the story ." Qi Butian looked at Lu Qingshan and smiled.
"Back then, the master of Dongming Temple saw some extraordinary things in the Tianji Mirror and told me, so it's not like no one knew about this."
"If no one knows, what's the point of him risking his life to find out the secret?" asked the master of Tianji Temple.
There is no longer any limit on the lifespan for cultivators above the eighth realm, but as long as they are living beings, the origin of their life cannot be infinite.
Once the source of life is exhausted, even if the lifespan is infinite, the only outcome is death.
Therefore, no matter how high or low your cultivation level is, prying into the secrets of heaven is the most taboo of taboos.
Paying such a huge price, just to die with the secret of heaven?
Lin Dongming is not that stupid.
"I have never told the following words to anyone else, including you." Qi Butian said to Chu Mushen.
Chu Mushen remained silent.
In fact, he didn't want to know the secret of that year.
Because he knew that if he told all this, Qi Butian would have to pay a heavy price.
But Chu Mushen failed to stop Qi Butian after all.
Qi Butian's emotions gradually calmed down, and he continued, starting from the beginning: "Twenty thousand years ago, Xia Zu successfully ascended to the ancestral realm, ended the first war between Dao and Demon, and saved the world from collapse."
"But the good times didn't last long, and Xia Zu soon disappeared from people's sight."
“Before he disappeared, he left the secret of his breakthrough to the master of Dongming Temple.”
"I think you now know the secret of the ancestral realm." Qi Butian said.
"So when the second war between Taoism and Demons was about to begin, the master of Dongming Temple decided to use the Heavenly Secret Mirror to find the outsider and find a way to break the situation."
"Then, he saw you in the Heavenly Secret Mirror and saw you waking up from the corpse pool in the Corpse Refining Cave."
Qi Butian looked at Lu Qingshan and smiled, "You are not a native of this world. You came from outside."
"We humans have gone through millions of years, but we still haven't succeeded in defeating the Heavenly Dao. Even Xia Zu hasn't been completely successful."
"But now, we have a second chance."
Qi Butian looked at Lu Qingshan quietly.
In this extremely serious and solemn situation, Lu Qingshan's first reaction was:
These stupid planners did a very rigorous job in setting up the background...
According to the logic stated by Qi Butian, the original outsider was not just him, but all the players.
All the players are not from this world, they are all breakers.
The player is the savior - a setting that suits the player's preferences very well.
But now, there are no more players, it is no longer a game, this is a real world.
Therefore, all the tasks that originally belonged to all the players were placed on him, on Lu Qingshan, the only outsider.
Is this going against the will of heaven?
In some old novels about dragons who dominate others, the most common phrase uttered by the domineering protagonists is "I want to defy the heavens." If you look at it from the audience's perspective, it looks quite interesting.
Even if you put yourself in the situation, it can bring you some pleasure of being out of touch with reality.
But when such a day came, and the heaven-defying situation was placed before him, and he was to become the protagonist in a novel or biography, Lu Qingshan did not feel any pleasure at all, but only heaviness.
Because this is no longer an interesting story, but the most real and difficult struggle and resistance, and it is a heroic cause that countless cultivators of the human race have tried time and time again, and even paid with their lives but have not yet completed.
Lu Qingshan thought in silence.
He knew that Qi Butian was waiting for his answer.
He considered himself to be never a selfless person.
So, logically speaking, what does the rise and fall of this world have to do with him?
But the thought "What does this have to do with me?" never crossed Lu Qingshan's mind from beginning to end.
Yes, he is not from this world, but he did come to this world, felt so many joys and sorrows, and had so many ties and concerns.
If not, how could he have taken over the Sword Sect?
But the problem is, now it’s not just the Sword Sect, but the millions of years of history of the human race which is hundreds, thousands, times heavier than the Sword Sect.
Lu Qingshan's original intention of coming to Tianhe City was just to meet Chu Mushen, complete the advancement task of the Five Tribulations Realm, and solve some doubts. Who would have thought that this trip would end up like this?
He raised his head quietly, his eyes met Qi Butian's, then shifted and finally fell on Chu Mushen, who had been very calm.
"How can I become a sword master?"
There is only one way to become a sword immortal, and that is to open the way.
This is something many people know.
Seen in this light, this question seems to be too simple.
But this was not what Lu Qingshan asked, and Chu Mushen knew it.
As the only sword immortal of the human race after Li Qiubai and Xie Qingyun returned to the abyss, if there is anyone who can answer Lu Qingshan's questions, it can only be him.
"Does the senior have any experience or insights?"
"This question is very complicated," Chu Mushen said, "To put it simply, I ate fish and fought, and I became a sword immortal."
"Senior, what you said is as good as nothing."
"Because that's exactly what I did." This is Chu Mushen's experience.
"But I can add one more thing. If you want to become a sword immortal, you must first survive."
"Live as long as possible."
"I know this, as the saying goes..." Lu Qingshan no longer worried about Chu Mushen's answer and said softly.
"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood."
"Haha, it's good to have this awareness," Chu Mushen looked at Lu Qingshan meaningfully, "I hope that at some point, you will still remember this truth."
Yes, who doesn’t understand this truth?
Doesn’t Li Qiubai understand?
Doesn’t Xie Qingyun understand?
But they still died.
"You have to understand one more thing. Besides you, he, and I know the secret of the ancestral realm, there is another 'person' who also knows it." Qi Butian reminded from the side.
Lu Qingshan looked up with a blank expression.
Omnipresent and omnipotent.
That is the sky.
There are no secrets in broad daylight.
"It knows all this, so it will never tolerate you."
"It will definitely stop you."
"And the best way to stop you, once and for all, is..."
"Kill you."
The moment he finished speaking, hundreds of strands of Qi Butian's black hair turned into silver threads.
This change made his white hair go from being barely visible to being as bright as his black hair.
prematurely senile.
Qi Butian seemed to be aware of something, but he didn't take it seriously.
