Chapter 1581: The pathless path of the holy steps is the best

Views:

The "stories" in "The Secret Code of Peace" can certainly inspire and open up people's minds, and may also provide a glimpse into many secrets of ancient times, but "The Secret Code of Peace" is of great significance to all people living in this era. For people, for everyone who has become a knight and is a well-deserved top force in this era, there is actually only one most critical question.

After reaching the holy level, how can we go further

As for those ancient legends and secrets about gods, real people, immortals, Taoists, saints, sages, etc., if we can’t solve this problem before all the knights, if we can’t kill the demon army west of the Weishui River, if we can’t let them To become stronger, if you can't let others dominate the world, grab money, land, and women, then everything is false and of no use. It can only be regarded as fairy tales and fantasists' dreams. Just listen to it. , there are many similar myths no matter which continent, there is no shortage of such one, and what really determines the world is the knights, not those things in ancient legends. The knight's power system, the social relationships and various superstructures based on the knight's power system, including the confrontation between humans and demons, are still indestructible.

Knights are the most realistic, powerful, and rational people in the world. Zhang Tie is also a realistic and rational person, and will not easily get lost in those ancient legends that are still out of reach.

After browsing the "Secret Book of Taiping", Zhang Tie pulled out his mental power from the secret book crystal, and slowly calmed down. He asked Yun Zhongzi a question, "You are now a Saint-level person." , standing at the top of all knights, since you have already felt a certain bottleneck, do you know a way to break through this bottleneck?"

"I don't know. When you reach the Holy Steps, it seems that you are already standing on the top of the peak. You can no longer see the mountains higher than your feet..." Yun Zhongzi sighed, "Everyone who is fighting at the Holy Steps Only then do people truly understand what it means to be cold at high places. Once the holy steps are completely consolidated, each holy step can feel the transparent ceiling above their heads. That ceiling can be touched and solid. And it is difficult to cross. There seems to be another world above. You look around at a loss. There is a sea of clouds around you, and you can see all the mountains and small mountains, but you can't find any stairs or roads that can be climbed up. You may be able to experience that kind of thing in the future. Helpless and confused..."

"Is there no way above the holy steps?"

"Yes, the road to cultivation is cut off after the Holy Level. No classic secret book can tell you what is after the Holy Level!"

Zhang Tie was silent for a while, and then suddenly burst out laughing. He seemed very happy. Yun Zhongzi looked at him with some surprise. He didn't know why Zhang Tie was so happy after hearing about the holy steps. You know, Even Yun Zhongzi himself, after touching the ceiling, this has always been a barrier in Yun Zhongzi's heart, which makes Yun Zhongzi unable to let go and never forget it.

"Why is the sect master so happy!"

"Hahaha, of course I am happy, this is good news..." Zhang Tie laughed, almost dancing with joy, "There is no way after the holy steps, and there is no possibility of climbing up. This is a good thing, then That is to say, these old guys who have advanced to the holy level now... cough... cough... Sorry, not including you. After they advance to the holy level, even if it takes a thousand years, their strength will not improve much. The holy level is their strength. In the plain area, they are waiting for me. When I advance to the holy level, once my realm is stable, with the help of my divine mastery, at that time, I will not be able to do whatever I want. No old guy can jump out and point fingers at me anymore. Don't you think I should be happy? I used to worry that some old monsters from the six major sects would show up again at some point, but now I'm fine. No, even if they are saints, they can only wait for me obediently in the realm of saints. It all depends on my face in the future. Do you think I can be unhappy?"

"Master, aren't you in a hurry?" Yun Zhongzi looked at Zhang Tie with wide eyes, as if he were an alien, "With the master's qualifications, strength and resources, it will only be a matter of time before he reaches the holy level. At that time, you, the sect master, will have no way to cultivate yourself, and you will no longer be able to climb to a higher realm!"

"Do people live to climb to a higher realm?" Zhang Tie put away the smile on his face and asked Yun Zhongzi seriously.

"Of course it is true for knights and practitioners like us?"

"Then what's the point of climbing to a higher level?"

"Of course you can become stronger and stronger, and one day you can be free on the great road!" Yun Zhongzi replied without hesitation.

"Being free on the great road is a good reason!" Zhang Tie said with a faint smile, "Then according to the "Secret Book of Taiping", if what is said above is true, the gods, or the ancient ones, Those gods are the highest realm of cultivation that we can achieve. So tell me, those gods and men, or gods, who can travel across the stars, shatter the void, change the world with a wave of their hands, and create all kinds of life at will, have they already? Dao and freedom?"

"certainly!"

"Then why do gods still have wars? Why do Gonggong and Zhu Rong still fight with each other? Since there are wars and battles, it means that those gods are not omnipotent, and they cannot do whatever they want and be free at any time. , if they really lived in this state of complete freedom and prosperity, and they were really free on the great road, there would be no war or enemies between them, and they would not need to destroy each other to make their lives better. It’s more comfortable or proves something, don’t you think?”

Yun Zhongzi was stunned. He didn't expect Zhang Tie to view this issue from such an angle, but what Zhang Tie said couldn't make him refute it. If people can become gods, since gods have to fight, fight, and kill. , that means God doesn’t seem to be living a very good life. What’s the point of simply pursuing such a state

"So, people don't live to climb to a higher realm, because that is a road of no return that may never come to an end. If you can get there, others may also get there, and then you two We don’t like each other, and we fight each other. You kill me and I kill you all day long. What’s the point of that? Is that the purpose of a person’s life!”

"What does the sect master think people live for?" Yun Zhongzi asked unconvinced.

Zhang Tie spread his hands, "It's very simple. People live to live better. As long as they can make themselves and the people around them live better, this better will have many states and levels, but at least Yes, it is to be able to not be bullied and oppressed, not to worry about losing your life for no reason, to live with dignity, to have enough food and clothing, to have everything you need, and to be able to be with the people you like and be with your family. , to me, this is the meaning of human life. If you are capable, besides yourself, it would be better if more people can live such a life. The purpose of our cultivation, our relationship with the demons Isn't war to defend our right to live a better life? At least for now, for me, as long as I advance to the holy level, all this can be completely achieved, and I will never find anyone who can compete with me. Opponent, so for me, the path of cultivation after the holy level does not matter at all. It is the best if there is no such thing. It is good news for me. What is the age of gods and men, the age of real people, the age of immortals, degeneration is good, anyway The demons don’t have it, and I don’t have it, so everyone is even. Don’t envy anyone. As long as I can be the boss of this era, I can advance to the holy level. I don’t care what those things from ancient times do, except gods. In addition to human beings, Pangu is said to be the creator of the world. Should I practice axing now? Even if I practice now, I think about it, I will never be able to practice an ax as big as Pangu in a million years. Body, if I die, I will probably be just a pile of ashes, and there may be a few roundworms in my stomach. It is impossible to evolve the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers and earth, are you right..." (.)
