Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 321 I prefer the mundane
Facing this senior who suddenly appeared, Lin Qianxing was still very alert.
After all, the other party's strength seems to be far beyond his own.
If it weren't for the message from Heaven that the other party was harmless, he would never come to meet him so easily.
"Lin Qianxing." Lin Qianxing introduced .
"Well, you are very good. You have just made a breakthrough not long ago, but you have such strength. You are also very blessed and have obtained precious treasures to protect yourself. The most important thing is that you dare to stand up and take responsibility in the face of the invading extraterritorial demons even though their cultivation is far beyond yours. No wonder you are favored by the Heaven." Ming looked at Lin Qianxing with approval and commented.
"Thank you for your praise, senior. As a member of the Qingcang Realm, these are what I should do." Lin Qianxing said politely.
If it were a year ago, even if he had the ability, he would run away the first time he encountered such a thing, and no one would get involved.
Now that he has a business, friends, and family in the local area, he naturally has a sense of belonging. Faced with invaders who want to destroy his life, he has the motivation to take action.
"It may not be easy for you to find a fellow Taoist in this remote place. If I hadn't been guided by the Heavenly Dao to travel here, I would not have been able to meet you. I will stay here for some time. If you don't understand anything, just ask me." Ming said.
With a thought, Lin Qianxing connected his mind to the Way of Heaven and received a direct response from Heaven, confirming that what the other party said was true.
He looked suddenly enlightened. It turned out that it was the Heaven's will that guided Ming to come here to face the calamity. No wonder then.
In an instant, most of Lin Qianxing's worries were dispelled.
Since the other party is unlikely to have malicious intentions, then that's your chance.
After his breakthrough, many things were still unclear to him. It was a rare opportunity to meet a senior this time, so he naturally had to ask about what he needed to ask.
"In that case, I won't be polite." Lin Qianxing said, "When I was fighting with that extraterritorial demon, I heard him say that my cultivation level was at the fifth level of the Supreme Realm. Is this the level of cultivation level in the Supreme Realm?"
"I guess so." Ming nodded and said, "Although the divisions in different places are somewhat different, this is the most widely used one. Supreme is already the pinnacle of cultivation. To improve further is actually just to develop one's own mastery of the Great Dao, to master more means, and to have a deeper Taoism. Therefore, the realm of the Supreme is often judged by the number of heavens. The first heaven represents a thousand worlds in one side, or in other words, the Taoism of an ordinary sun. For example, your Taoism is at the level of the fifth heaven of the Supreme."
Lin Qianxing nodded. So that's how it is.
Calculated in this way, his energy level is equivalent to five ordinary suns.
"I see that your aura is extremely profound. I wonder what level of cultivation you have reached?" Lin Qianxing asked doubtfully.
"One hundred three thousand seven hundred and ninety-one levels." Ming replied.
Even though Lin Qianxing was mentally prepared to a certain extent, he was still shocked by Ming's answer and his expression changed slightly.
No matter how high he guessed the number, he couldn't have imagined it would be so exaggerated!
“Don’t think I’m that strong. Among the supreme beings in the Qingcang Realm, I’m just middle to lower level. I’m not that powerful at all.” Ming waved his hand.
"Senior, this is not considered amazing? Then how many levels of cultivation can the strongest supreme being have?" Lin Qianxing said with eyes wide open.
“I can only tell you that the Supreme Being in the Trillion Heavens does exist.” Ming said with a smile.
Lin Qianxing's eyes twitched suddenly and his mood became very subtle.
"Can the Qingcang Realm really accommodate such a powerful person?" Lin Qianxing exclaimed.
"The world we live in is a boundless real world. If we compare our world to a sea of sand, the vast universe is just a grain of sand in our world, and it is constantly expanding all the time. Its grandeur is far beyond your imagination . Even the Supreme Being in the Trillion Heavens may not have really explored one ten-thousandth of the size of the entire world." Ming said with emotion.
Lin Qianxing lowered his head and looked towards Yushan City below. He could easily cover that entire city with his divine sense when he was in the early stage of the Dao Stage. Going further up, he could already scan the entire Dayu Kingdom with his divine sense when he was in the Daohai Stage.
When he reached the Star-Picking Realm, he could easily scan the surrounding countries with his divine sense.
Now he has reached the fifth level of the Supreme Realm. With a sweep of his divine sense, hundreds of countries around him are all within his perception, and not even a speck of dust can escape his observation.
Even so, it still seems difficult for him to see the entire world.
Compared to the entire world, the size of his spiritual consciousness seemed to be even less than one billionth of a grain of sand.
"Is this the boundless real world?" Lin Qianxing sighed.
At this moment, he seemed to truly realize his own insignificance.
"Yes, I travel around the world and always see scenery that I have never seen before, and always see geniuses with more amazing talents. This world is so big that even if we are the supreme ones, we are extremely small." Ming nodded.
"Senior, I would like to ask, are there many extraterritorial demons invading like the ones before in the Qingcang Realm?" Lin Qianxing asked.
Ming was silent for a while, then said: "It's not a question of how many there are. When the Heavenly Dao was damaged and collapsed in the catastrophe, I don't know how many worlds took advantage of the opportunity to invade. It's because the land you are in is relatively barren, otherwise it is not impossible that you would have to experience an invasion from extraterritorial demons every few days."
"Isn't this like a sieve?" Lin Qianxing said with a subtle expression.
"The description of a sieve is not accurate. It can only be said that during that period of time, the gate to the Qingcang Realm was opened, and any Heavenly Dao could cram two extraterritorial demons in here. Even the Heavenly Dao from the Hengsha World dared to steal resources from the Qingcang Realm." Ming shook his head.
"What about now? Isn't the universe gradually recovering?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"Now they are even more rampant than before. After all, the Heavenly Dao has just revived, and it does not have the ability to completely supervise the ten directions for the time being. In order to reap the benefits before the Heavenly Dao of the Qingcang Realm fully revives, those extraterritorial demons are now descending more frequently than before. Otherwise, your wild land would most likely not be affected." Ming said.
Lin Qianxing really didn't expect that the situation had become so serious.
Hearing this, his expression gradually became serious.
He can still defeat the invading demons from outside the domain this time, but what if the next invading demon is stronger and he cannot defeat it?
Waiting for God to shake you?
I was afraid that by the time someone came over, the other party would have already left.
Only a wasteland is left.
Isn’t this the case with Ming this time?
"I know what you're worried about, but there's nothing we can do about it." At this point, Ming sighed and said, "If an irresistible disaster really comes, you'd better protect yourself first. You are the most precious treasure in the world. As for the suffering of ordinary creatures, it's really impossible to take care of both. It's not your fault."
"Thank you for your teachings, senior. I will keep them in mind." Lin Qianxing nodded.
He said this, but he didn't mean it in his heart.
Lin Qianxing has only been practicing for a little over a year, and he is quite confident that he will soon have enough strength to protect everything he has.
Perhaps seeing Lin Qianxing's attitude, Ming said: "The life span of the Supreme is eternal and hard to remember. Everything you care about now will not last too long. Perhaps tens of millions of years will dissipate. What we can pursue is only the end of the Great Dao. That is what we care about. Other than that, the rest are just scenery on the road.
It is not wrong for you to want to protect the beautiful scenery for a while, but no beauty can last forever. We are like the sun in the sky. Billions of years have passed, but for us it is just a nap. It is not worth sacrificing our more distant future for a momentary scenery. "
Lin Qianxing accepted the advice frankly, but his mind remained firm.
Compared to Ming, the old hand, Lin Qianxing is still too young.
Even though he had the memory of millions of years of training in the game, it was just a dream to him. After waking up, he was still that passionate young man.
To be honest, any centenarian could probably look at the world more calmly than him.
Seeing this, Ming shook his head slightly and said, "It's good for you to know. I will stay here for a hundred years. If you have any questions, you can ask me."
After saying this, Ming disappeared into the void. The next moment, he appeared on a star in the sky. A palace rose from the ground and became his residence.
The Supreme Being does not live with mortals. He will not be like Lin Qianxing, living among creatures who, in his eyes, are not even as good as ants.
What if one day he feels like doing a little exercise and if he is not careful there are dead lives everywhere? Even if the Heavenly Dao will not blame him for this, it will disturb his own interest.
Since they are the stars that have been shining since ancient times, they should be hanging high in the sky instead of being lost in the dust.
Too bright starlight may not be a good thing for ordinary creatures.
This is the attitude that Ming expressed towards Lin Qianxing.
Unfortunately, Lin Qianxing is very rebellious.
He bowed in the direction Ming left, and then went straight back to his residence.
What is mundane and what is supreme?
He doesn't care about that.
He can live wherever he wants and do whatever he wants. Isn't this what he practices hard for?
…
Time passed, and soon it was the first day of the first lunar month.
After experiencing the catastrophe caused by the extraterritorial demons, there are only a few countries that can happily celebrate the New Year.
However, it is quite lively here in Dayu Kingdom.
It was a rare occasion for Lin Qianxing to take Mei'er, who had transformed into a human form, and go out to the street with Ah Hong squatting on his shoulders, weaving through the crowded crowd, tasting delicious food and enjoying the scenery.
It is different from what I imagined, that after reaching a high level of cultivation, I would gradually lose interest in all worldly things.
The higher his cultivation level, the more beauty Lin Qianxing can discover in this ordinary life.
In the past, he looked at things superficially and was easily influenced by external appearances, but now he looks deeper and more detailed and can see more information.
Things I have seen before give me new feelings when I look at them again now.
If you try the food you have eaten before, you can taste new flavors.
It is not limited to the sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty and fresh flavors. The stories of the chefs who make the food and the experiences of the ingredients that make up the food are all worth savoring.
He smiled and looked up at the sky. Compared to the high in the sky, he still preferred walking among the mortal world.
