After all, judging from the current situation, the preparations of the Nine Heavenly Palaces, or their plans, are not very good.
It seems that there is a high probability that they will have to cede territory, pay compensation, marry a princess, or seek peace...
Once this happens, the 'Yang World', that is, all the heavens and worlds, will be in trouble.
From now on, there is a high probability that it will become a subsidiary of the underworld.
"Who came up with this idea, and who made this decision?"
Lan Caier gnashed her teeth and cursed, "What a piece of shit. Let's not talk about anything else, just one thing, what right do he, or they have to make this decision for the heavens and the worlds?!"
"What qualifications do they have?"
"Because they are strong." Ji Chutong sneered: "When a strong person does something, why would he need to feel the thoughts of a weak person?"
"In their opinion, the countless beings in the heavens and myriad worlds are the ones who are not qualified, right?"
"Perhaps, in their opinion, what we are doing is the most correct thing to do. It can avoid large-scale wars and reduce many casualties in the heavens and myriad worlds."
"At most, it's just 'giving away' some things and land. Dignity, what's that? Besides, if they really want to talk about it, they can just say: We paid with our dignity to get you peace~ Shouldn't you be grateful?" Qi Zifan said with a sarcastic look: "Don't you agree?"
At this moment, he thought of some jokes satirizing female boxing and stupidity.
The premise of the joke is that there are three people in a car, two men and one woman, one of whom is a couple.
As a result, they got into a car accident. The male couple died, the female died, and the single man had both legs broken and became paralyzed.
Then···
Both were very sad.
As a result, the woman actually said: "You only lost your legs, but I lost my love~~~"
Now, Qi Zi Fan has this feeling.
It seemed as if the strong men from the nine heavenly palaces were standing in front of him, saying over and over again: "Your hard-earned peace was gained because we lost our dignity..."
At first glance, it seems to be fine.
If their plan succeeds, it could indeed bring peace.
But the question is, what right do they have to make this decision on behalf of countless living beings in the heavens and the worlds
Why do they want to erase history and make everything in the past cease to exist
First, they have no right to make decisions on behalf of all living beings in the heavens and the worlds, and second, they have no right to make this choice on behalf of many ancestors!
It can be said that this is a complete betrayal of one's teacher and ancestors!
By the way, we must also lead the younger generations of all the heavens and worlds into the fire pit.
For Ji Chutong and Lan Caier, they had never experienced and knew how miserable it would be after "surrendering".
But Qi Zifan knew!
The experience of the great Chinese nation at that time was a history of blood and tears that is difficult to express in words. It was too tragic!
After countless ancestors had built a future with their flesh and blood, it took almost seventy years and the efforts of several generations before China was able to truly stand up again.
It's difficult!
It’s really difficult!
Those years were really hard.
Once the myriad worlds swear to make peace by ceding territory, paying compensation, marrying brides and paying tribute, then for who knows how long, the myriad worlds will live in darkness...
Do you really think that the peace you seek is true peace
He sneered and said, "Only peace won through fighting is true peace!"
"Now, I seem to understand why the Sword Master is so anxious, but I need to be sure."
Qi Zifan turned around and went towards the houses with faint lights.
soon.
The door was pushed open.
All seven of them had "woken up," and it seemed as if they had been waiting for the three of them.
"Slower than I thought." The silent boy transmitted the message, looking directly at the three people: "How is it? Do you understand everything that happened back then?"
Ji Chutong and Lan Cai'er didn't say anything, but just looked at Qi Zifan.
They were eager to know what Qi Zi Fan was thinking and what he wanted to confirm.
"call."
Qi Zifan let out a long breath, and then said solemnly: "As for the past, I think we may know more than you do now."
"But now, I don't want to talk about that. I just want to know whether the current sword master of Taixuan Jiuqing Palace has been here before?"
“···”
"I have been here." The scholar responded.
really!
Qi Zifan's face turned pale as he suddenly realized something.
"So that's how it is, it's true!"
He spoke almost word by word, biting his tongue heavily.
At this moment, Qi Zifan understood completely why the Sword Master had such a resolute action. Even if he would die in a moment after achieving Daluo, he still wanted to do this to re-stimulate the sword master's will.
"What is really so?"
At this moment, everyone looked at Qi Zifan curiously, waiting for his answer.
"In that case, I'll keep it secret."
Qi Zifan sighed softly, and then his eyes flashed like lightning, no longer showing any loneliness or uneasiness, but instead there was an astonishing fighting spirit sweeping over him.
"Seniors, do you know what the Nine Heavenly Palaces are planning?"
"Intend?"
The seven people frowned, and then spoke one after another.
"You want to preserve your strength and cherish your wings, right?"
"According to what you said, you are morally blackmailing us to come and guard the border gate and preserve our own strength. This is indeed very despicable."
"The Nine Heavenly Palaces...there's nothing good in them."
At this time, the old woman sneered and said, "You really showed some mercy to them when you spoke. Those bastards are clearly backing down."
"In my opinion, they are worse than those corrupt people on the technology side!"
"In the past, I always thought they were degenerate, not cultivating themselves, but only seeking external things. What did they count for?"
"But now that I think about it, isn't technology their way?! They pursued their own way and went further and further on this path without losing their backbone. Why did they fall? What right do I, an old woman, have to look down on them?"
Sneering continuously!
Her old face was full of disdain: "On the contrary, it's the nine great heavenly palaces that are high above, hehe..."
After these words were spoken, the expressions of the other six people all looked unhappy.
The old woman was merciless: "You probably guessed it a long time ago, right? I have mentioned it more than once, but you didn't believe it?"
"Don't believe it, or don't want to believe it?"
She brought up the topic and looked at the other six people, her eyes full of mockery.
The other six were all silent, their expressions somewhat gloomy.
“Indeed.”
Qi Zifan took over the topic, and he and the two women all grasped the key word from the old woman's mouth - retreat!
Then, he said softly: "You have roughly guessed it, but you just don't want to admit it, and you are unwilling to admit it."
"Or, you don't want to see that happen?"
"you···"
The seven people suddenly turned their heads: "Guessed?"
What's the meaning?!
We just guessed
Yes, we did guess it, but can you be sure
"Yes, you guessed it, but we have confirmed it."
Buzz.
Qi Zifan did not make any movement, but a large area of time laws bloomed around him, extremely dazzling.
Seeing this, Lan Cai'er did not hesitate and the laws of space dissipated.
Then, Ji Chutong used time in her left hand and space in her right hand to "connect" the three people together, crossing the long river of time and walking in the dimension of the past.
It was only a moment, but it was enough for these Golden Immortals to understand.
"You... saw the destroyed relief?"
They were terrified. Even though they had seen countless storms and even killed many great immortals from the underworld, at this moment they felt like they had seen a ghost.
Who are these three people
Although their cultivation level is not high, they all control such amazing laws.
What is this for
Against the will of heaven?!
"yes!"
"Did you recognize who destroyed it?"
"I don't recognize it."
Qi Zi Fan looked calm and had never lied: "But I have confirmed many things through the contents of the relief."
"Some people want to downplay hatred, their purpose is nothing more than to seek peace."
"The means are most likely to be nothing more than ceding territory, paying compensation, marrying a princess and paying tribute."
"Plus, you are stationed here without any reinforcements from the Nine Heavenly Palaces..."
"hehe."
"Everything is clear now. The Nine Heavenly Palaces are the masterminds behind this. You are not only here because of moral kidnapping, but also because of their conspiracy."
"Only when all of you pro-war cliques are dead, can their plan succeed and be carried out successfully."
Qi Zifan looked at them with a calm expression, as if he was narrating a trivial disappearance, but the content was enough to stir up a huge storm.
He remained calm, but that was the most frightening thing.
Obviously, he was extremely sure and very confident about this matter.
"you···"
The old man opened his mouth and said with difficulty: "It's just a guess."
"Yes, it's just a guess, but do you believe it?"
The old man was silent, and so were the others. After a long while, the old man said, "It's not that there are no people from the Nine Heavenly Palaces who participated in the war. Many sword masters from past generations..."
"We saw that there are records of several sword masters on the monument to heroes."
"They are all famous and fought to the end."
Qi Zifan interrupted him: "But, the Sword Master is a sword cultivator, and sword cultivators value integrity the most and would rather break than bend."
"Even if everyone surrenders, the sword cultivators will not necessarily surrender. I think you know this as well as I do."
"So, these words are nothing but self-deception."
"Now, what?"
The old man didn't say anything either.
At this time, the old woman sneered and said, "Okay, well said."
"You are deceiving yourself."
"It's just..." She changed the subject, saying with deep affection and loneliness: "Even if you know, even if you are sure, what can you do?"
"We can't leave after all, and we can't leave."
"Once they leave, the border will be empty and will be completely lost. Only then will the wish of the Nine Heavenly Palaces be fulfilled."
"That may not be the case!"
Qi Zifan's face was slightly gloomy, and he spoke softly.
Everyone suddenly understood and looked puzzled.
"Perhaps, the loss of the boundary gate is the best option."
"Do you know what you are saying?" The scholar shouted angrily: "Once the border gate is lost, all the lives in our heavens and myriad worlds will be destroyed..."
"By then, if the strong men from the underworld come to kill us, even if we fight back, we will..."
"So what?"
Qi Zifan asked calmly, without any panic: "Don't forget, if we retreat, you are still here, and the Nine Heavenly Palaces are still here."
“Even if the underworld wants to take action, the first ones to bear the brunt will not be the heavens and myriad worlds, but the nine great heavenly palaces.”
“How do they choose?”
"Before this, their strategy is to let all of you pro-war factions die in battle, or when there are only one or two left and you have no power to turn the situation around, then they will ask for peace."
"But what if you are all alive and able to fight?"
"In a chess match, the enemy's focus is your focus."
Qi Zifan's eyes swept across the slightly changed faces of the seven of them, and asked, "What will they do then?"
"Are you going to make peace directly?"
"You still have the fighting power, you can stand up and say no at any time."
"war?"
"Then their nine heavenly palaces are the first line of defense. Although this move will expose the gate of the Yang World to the Yin World, it is also a good thing..."
"Force the Nine Heavenly Palaces to make a choice!"
"If they are really shameless and choose to make peace regardless of everything, you can just take action again!"
"Secondly, the nine great heavenly palaces pretended to fight but did not actually contribute, allowing the myriad worlds to be breached..."
"So what?"
"Sacrificing some lives and having a bloody battle to awaken the souls of countless lives in the heavens and myriad worlds and inspire their fighting spirit is the most correct approach."
"This is a war between two worlds, and it is also a catastrophe!"
"This concerns countless lives, and the outcome cannot be decided by a few Golden Immortals fighting to the death."
“The only way is to fight, to fight non-stop, and for countless beings in the entire Yang Realm to rise up and fight, to fight for their true selves and their futures, is to end this war and survive this era’s catastrophe.”
"The calamity..."
The voiceless boy's spiritual consciousness transmitted a hoarse voice: "In this city, there are some fragments of records in some ancient ruins. What are they?"
"You can think of it as a catastrophe that swept away countless lives. Anyone who is caught in the catastrophe has a chance of survival only if they fight hard to survive."
Qi Zifan did not explain too much: "So, in my opinion, now is definitely not the time for me to bear everything. The most correct choice is to inspire everyone's fighting spirit and let them fight and want to fight."
"I know you want to dedicate everything to the heavens and the Yang World, and give your last bit of strength, but if this strength is useless after you have given it, it would be too pedantic and sad."
Once again, Qi Zifan accused him of being pedantic.
But the seven people did not show anger, just hesitation and shock.
Qi Zifan's words opened a whole new door for them.
It’s not that they are stupid and can’t think of these things, but they don’t know much and are unwilling to believe their own guesses.
They don't know about the great calamity, and don't know how terrible this calamity is, so they "try" to end it all with their own power.
They were unwilling to believe that the Nine Heavenly Palaces would retreat like this, so they still felt a little relieved in their hearts.
In this way, one naturally won't think about the next step or how to better solve the current dilemma.
But Qi Zifan is different.
He understood the kalpa, had a flexible mind, and his sense of belonging to the heavens and myriad worlds was far less strong than that of the seven people in front of him.
So, he is willing to give it up!
He is able to analyze rationally instead of trapping himself in a shackle and being unable to get out.
Seeing that they were still hesitating, Qi Zifan turned his head and looked at Ji Chutong and Lan Caier, and whispered: "Do you know why the Sword Master is so determined?"
"Also, what exactly is the one thing I just mentioned to be sure of?"
The two nodded naturally, with deep shock and realization on their faces.
Qi Zifan's words also stunned them.
But, they felt that what Qi Zifan said made sense!
"think!"
Both women spoke at the same time.
"It has been confirmed that the Sword Master has been here." Qi Zifan sighed, "And he has probably guessed this, or he already knew the choice of the Nine Heavenly Palaces before that, so he came to the boundary alone to confirm whether what he knew was true or false."
"Obviously, he confirmed it and had the answer in his mind."
"But as a sword cultivator, he would rather break than bend. This is true for all previous sword masters, and it is the same for him!"
"So, I have been thinking about ways to break the impasse."
"He already has the strength and realm to achieve the state of Daluo, but he has been suppressing me. He is considering this matter and wants to keep a trump card."
"But as time went on, he probably learned more and more, and he also knew that this matter was definitely not something he could handle alone, so he made the most extreme decision."
"you mean···"
Ji Chutong's face changed drastically. She had met and talked with the Sword Master before, and knew him better than Lan Caier, so she understood it faster.
"The Sword Master had already made this decision, sacrificing himself to awaken the spirit of the sword cultivator, because... he didn't want the Yang World to seek peace?!"
"yes!"
Qi Zifan nodded and said seriously, "That's it!"
"The more I learn, the more I realize how powerful this 'great force' is. It is definitely not something that the sword master can contend with alone."
“There are even some things worth thinking about.”
"You must know that before that, the Palace Master of Taixuan Jiuqing Palace was always the Sword Master. Why did it become the Master of the Fu Xiu lineage in this generation?"
"There's a high probability that the other eight heavenly palaces are contributing behind this!"
"Even the sword cultivators who should have been brave enough to fight and not bend, and whose heroic spirit was soaring to the sky, were 'corrupted'. They lacked the spirit of a sword cultivator, and the heroic spirit of wearing white clothes and holding up the sword against the wind, no matter what the opponent was."
"It was because the Sword Master understood all of this that he felt powerless. He knew that he could not reverse the situation by himself. The only way was to wake up more people!"
"Sacrifice myself and ignite the fire of sword cultivation, just to wake up more people and awaken the sword cultivation lineage!"
"Only in this way can the sword cultivation lineage continuously produce true sword cultivators and accumulate strength for the future fight against the underworld."
"However, the old Sword Master has probably been thinking and hesitating all the time."
"There is no Golden Immortal in the sword cultivation lineage now. If he were to transform himself into the sun and the moon to illuminate the way forward, who would lead the sword cultivation lineage?"
"There must be at least one Daluo, otherwise, the Nine Heavenly Palaces can easily suppress the sword cultivation lineage..."
Qi Zifan sighed softly, feeling sad and helpless.
