Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 720: It's hard to say right or wrong

Views:

Su Yun and Yingying felt a little creepy when they saw this smile.

The man who left the cliff carving couldn't stand the loneliness in the end, and chose to turn into a monster like his people.

Since then, there has been no more "us".

The clansmen whom the Supreme Dao Lord, the Supreme Man and the Heavenly Lords protected with their lives were thus exterminated.

In this underwater cave world, there are still many ancestors of the ancient universe walking around, but they are just corpses controlled by the brain monsters.

The brain monsters in the Sea of Divine Powers are completely different species from the ancestors of the ancient universe!

"These brain monsters probably still have some memories of the past, so they use each other's corpses as their nests. They will come back from time to time, as if they are still alive." Yingying said.

Su Yun looked at the corpses of the ancestors. They could not speak, but only showed meaningless smiles.

After a while, another head monster flew up, stretched out its tentacles, waved them, and swam out of the sea.

Su Yun looked into the distance and saw the skeleton giant revisiting his old place. He was quite moved. Finally, he stood in front of the Supreme Taoist Lord, muttering to himself.

Yingying flew forward to talk to him, and Su Yun followed behind. He heard the two of them talking for a long time in a language he could not understand.

Finally, the skeleton giant left, leaped away and disappeared.

"He said he was an exile."

Yingying told Su Yun, "He rebelled against the decision of the Supreme Dao Lord. He believed that beings like them were the masterpieces of the entire era and the crystallization of civilization. They were of higher wisdom and they should not protect these weak, ignorant and pathetic creatures. The purpose of the Supreme Palace was not to protect insects, but to be the last refuge for beings like him."

Su Yun was stunned for a moment, and said, "This person is a sage, and has his own ideas? Shouldn't a sage be a Taoist slave? How did he escape from the sage's trap?"

Yingying said, "I don't know about that. Maybe at the end of the ancient universe, the avenue collapsed, and he took the opportunity to jump out of the trap. He told the Supreme Dao Lord that in order to reduce the power of the doomsday disaster, they should first exterminate the world's human beings. Exterminate all these useless insects. All those below the Heavenly Lord are trash and must be eliminated."

Su Yun was horrified: "Everyone below the Heavenly Sovereign is trash, and they all have to be exterminated? No wonder this man has such a terrifying viciousness!"

"The Supreme Dao Lord disagreed with his philosophy, so he suppressed and exiled him to the Chaos Sea."

Yingying said: "He came back this time, to his old place, just to see who was right and who was wrong between him and the Supreme Dao Lord. However, the facts proved that he was right and the Dao Lord was wrong."

Su Yun looked in the direction where the skeleton giant left, and then looked at the Heavenly Monarchs and Supreme Beings in the Supreme Hall who used their lives to form the Sea of Divine Powers and the Undersea Cave Heaven. He felt a little confused: "Is Daojun wrong?"

Yingying repeated the words of the skeleton giant, saying, "These weak beings have weak Dao hearts and are simply unable to face the apocalypse. When faced with the apocalypse, their Dao hearts collapse and these mortals will have no choice but to die. Only the Heavenly Sovereigns and Dao Sovereigns can persevere. Only they are the hope of the universe. Dao Sovereigns retain the weak and sacrifice the strong, only to end up in destruction."

Su Yun looked a little pale.

Yingying didn't notice and continued, "He was resurrected this time to revitalize the race. He will do what the Supreme Daoist Lord can't do, and he will do it better! I suspect he is going to cause trouble! Scholar? Scholar?"

Su Yun was in a daze and was awakened by her repeated calls. Only then did he come to himself in a cold sweat.

Yingying asked curiously, "Shizi, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

Su Yun calmed down, but was still a little confused. After a moment, he said, "Yingying, I just saw the Heavenly Sovereigns and Supreme Beings in the Supreme Palace exhausting their lives to build the Sea of Divine Powers and resist the doomsday disaster. I admire their courage, and ask myself if I can do this."

His face was gloomy, and he said, "I have always felt that I am not so noble. Facing such a disaster, I may not be able to do it. I may just pray for protection from the strong like an ordinary person. But after seeing what the Supreme Dao Lord did, I feel deeply ashamed and feel that I can also sacrifice myself at this critical moment."

Yingying closed the book with a bang and said with a smile: "Scholar, your realm has become more profound."

Su Yun shook his head and said, "But the fate of the skeleton and this underwater cave world has made me doubt. The Supreme Palace should have been preserved, and the Supreme Dao Lord and the Supreme Human Lords should not have to die. They could have survived the doomsday disaster, but because they wanted to save ordinary people, they ended up being extinct. Is it worth it?"

Yingying was stunned.

Su Yun continued, "When I was fighting against the Evil Emperor in the First Sword Formation, I was taken to the future by his Taitian Du Wheel. In the future, I saw the fall of the imperial court, my failure, and the fall of old friends. I wondered if Yuan Shuo was worth it..."

Yingying understood what he meant.

In the Taitian Capital Wheel, Su Yun saw a glimpse of the future, saw his own fate of failure in protecting the imperial court and Yuan Shuo, and saw his old friend die in the defense battle.

But are Yuan Shuo and the Yuan Shuo people worth fighting for for himself and his friends

Are the lives of ordinary people so precious that it is worth it for these strong people to exchange their lives for their right to survive

What if the Yuanshuo people, like the ancestors in the underwater cave world, abandoned their human dignity in despair and turned into hideous monsters

Was the sacrifice made by myself and my friends worth it at that time

He had this suspicion.

Yingying thought about it, but didn't know what to say, so she could only say: "The fate of this skeleton is another choice. Then let's see which is better, his choice or the choice of the Supreme Dao Lord."

Su Yun nodded. This was the last resort.

The five-colored boat traveled through this underwater cave world. Su Yun and Yingying saw a number of five-colored steles on which the Supreme Taoist had left their civilization.

The inscriptions are extremely simple symbols, but they convey extremely complex meanings and condense its civilization.

The words engraved on the five-colored gold can remain immortal and passed down even after the universe turns into chaos.

Su Yun glanced through it and confirmed that he didn't recognize a single word, but Yingying was reading it with great interest.

"Stay here."

Su Yun saw Yingying was about to move the five-colored tablets onto the ship, so he stopped her and said, "If they are melted down, their civilization will be lost. We will not take this kind of wealth."

Yingying reluctantly put down the five-colored stele and said, "No one can understand it if it is left here, so it is better to melt it down and refine it... Inside are the insights of the Supreme, Supreme Man and Heavenly Lord on Tao. Do you want to learn from them?"

Su Yun shook his head and said, "You can take a look, but there is no need to learn. It is not meaningful. The end of the immortal path has not been figured out yet, and the tenth level of the immortal path has not been opened up. It is not worth it to learn from others."

He observed the Five-Colored Stele. The concise words left by the Supreme Taoist Lord contained extremely complex and profound knowledge, which was a manifestation of being close to Tao.

"This Supreme Dao Lord has extremely high attainments... Hey, someone else has been here before!"

At this moment, he discovered something and quickly called Yingying: "Yingying, there are other words here! They are the runes of the old gods!"

Yingying flew over quickly and saw that the five-colored stele was indeed written with the old god runes. Apparently someone was using the old god runes to try to decipher the words on the five-colored stele!

However, the deciphering was not completed. The person who wrote the text only deciphered half of it and then gave up.

"Who left these old god runes?"

Su Yun was quite puzzled. At this moment, he heard a familiar voice: "The person who left these runes is Emperor Hundun."

Su Yun's heart skipped a beat and he looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a tall and majestic figure appear in the underwater cave with three horns on its head, which were the three legs of the Immortal Burning Furnace!

Emperor Shu.

Emperor Shu walked through the ruins of the ancient universe, looking at the words on the five-colored stele, and said: "In the past, Emperor Hundun and the outsiders also discovered this place and came here to explore the mysteries of the ancient universe. They found the inscriptions here and were very interested, so they deciphered the inscriptions."

Yingying wondered, "Why did Emperor Hundun only decipher half of it?"

Emperor Shu said, "After deciphering half of it, Emperor Hundun found that the insights on the Five-Colored Stele were useless to him. His realm was no weaker than the people on the stele, so it was of little use. The purpose of the people who left the inscriptions was just to pass on their civilization. The inscriptions could not record the highest things. Back then, I was also here, trying to decipher the inscriptions with my own wisdom."

Su Yun bowed: "Brother, are you still chasing Di Feng?"

Emperor Shu shook his head and said, "Emperor Feng is a minor threat. This visitor from the Chaos Sea is a major threat and must be eliminated."

Su Yun smiled and said, "Brother Dao, the visitor from the Chaos Sea is an unrivaled master. I am a humble man and cannot help. I will take my leave now."

Yingying was about to start the five-colored boat when suddenly Di Shu's voice came: "Wait a moment!"

Yingying's scalp tingled and she dared not move.

Su Yun was calm and composed, as if he was not under any pressure at all, and said with a smile: "Brother, do you have any other instructions?"

Di Shu's eyes fell on Yingying. Su Yun turned around and said with a smile, "Brother, are you planning to take back this golden coffin?"

Emperor Shu's eyes were still fixed on Yingying, and he said, "Since the golden coffin has chosen Little Shuxian, I will not ask for it back. Please decipher a copy of the text on this five-colored stele and give it to me."

Yingying heaved a sigh of relief and quickly visualized a book. On the book were the words on the five-colored stele, and next to it were words that were deciphered into immortal runes.

Yingying possesses Nanxuangeng's memories, so it is very easy for her to translate these inscriptions into immortal runes.

Emperor Shu accepted the book and said, "That's enough. Go over there. There is the gate to the fairyland that Emperor Hundun refined in the past. You can go to the fairyland from there."

Su Yun thanked her and winked at Yingying.

Yingying understood and urged the five-colored boat to fly out of the underwater cave and leave the Supreme Palace.

When the five-colored boat flew away, Su Yun suddenly activated the Xiantian Zifu Sutra to increase his own Qi and blood, and said, "Yingying, do you see if my forehead is bleeding?"

Yingying was awed, and hurriedly checked his head several times before she breathed a sigh of relief: "No! Scholar, look at my forehead!"

She also urged her blood and qi. Su Yun carefully checked it for a few times and breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "Emperor Shu didn't open our mouths."

They have always been afraid of Emperor Shu, fearing that he would cut their skulls, take out their brains and read their memories.

Fortunately, this scene did not happen.

"Who is Di Shu?" Yingying asked.

"Emperor Hu."

Su Yun's eyes flickered as he said, "But if it was Di Hu who plotted against Di Shu and controlled him, then things would be weird. Di Hu's identity could have many layers..."

He hesitated and didn't elaborate.

At this time, the light of the reincarnation ring came from the front.

Emperor Chaos's Samsara Ring cut through layers of time and space, even the Sea of Divine Powers was cut through, and in front of them was the Samsara Ring on the seabed. Wherever the Samsara Ring passed, the seawater was pushed away.

From afar, a gate to the fairyland stood on the seabed, surrounded by extremely majestic buildings, but the buildings were very bright, as if they had been built not long ago.

The five-colored boat sailed into the town.

"This is the town of the old gods!" Su Yun looked around and said in surprise.

He and Yingying quickly jumped off the five-colored boat, stepped on solid ground, and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, a big golden chain stretched out from Yingying's body, quietly wrapped around the five-colored boat, making a rattling sound, and then tied the boat and the golden coffin together behind Yingying.

The little book fairy couldn't bear the weight and was crushed to the ground.

The golden chain made the five-colored boat smaller and smaller, until it was only four or five inches long, but Yingying was still unable to move.

Su Yun raised his hand and picked up Yingying along with the golden coffin and the five-colored boat. Yingying's face was dark, and she staggered to follow Su Yun with the golden coffin and the five-colored boat on her small body.

They looked around and found that the old god's town had long been empty, leaving only these buildings and a gate to the fairyland.

This gate to the fairyland is almost exactly the same as the one Su Yun saw at the end of the seventh fairyland. Apart from the different locations, there is no other difference!

This gate to the fairyland stands at the bottom of the Sea of Divine Powers, right next to the Ring of Samsara.

Su Yun came to the door, hesitated for a moment, and pushed open the door. Unexpectedly, the door to the fairyland opened easily.

He walked into the gate of the fairyland, and Yingying followed behind him breathlessly, saying angrily: "We are at the gate of the fairyland! I don't want this chain of yours anymore, you and the coffin are still hanging on the door! Don't lock me up anymore!"

The big golden chain hesitated and let go of the five-colored boat.

Yingying raised the five-colored boat, but the golden chain did not leave with the golden coffin, and was still on her back. Su Yun and Yingying boarded the five-colored boat and sailed towards the fairyland.

After a while, Su Yun looked straight ahead, his face slightly changed: "Yingying, go back! This is not the Seventh Immortal Realm, drive back quickly!"
