Chapter 983 Do You Really Know What Dao Is?
"No! This is impossible. I don't believe it. The Heavenly Dao I follow is the most domineering existence in this world. It's impossible for me to lose."
Xiao Jinse seemed to have been possessed by a fiend. He was not like the others. He did not have a tragic experience, let alone a deep hatred.
His life had always been smooth sailing.
He was born into a large clan in the Immortal Ancient and had a peerless immortal body. When he was young, he was once praised by the mighty figures of the travelers as the person with the highest chance of becoming an Immortal King in millions of years.
He was talented and had stood at the peak of the mountains since he was born. Ever since he debuted, he had never tasted defeat. There had never been anyone who could be regarded as his true opponent. In the first half of his life, he could be said to have swept through everything.
Yet at this moment, he had experienced the first crushing defeat in his life. For the first time, he questioned the Dao he had followed his entire life.
"No! The Heavenly Dao can't lose. Absolutely not." Xiao Jinse had already become a fiend. He was stunned. He muttered to himself, shook his head, and laughed. He was extremely miserable.
The hand holding the sword was trembling. If he doubted the Dao in his heart, then what was the point of holding this sword? What could he hold on to when everything was meaningless?
Xiao Jinse seemed to have entered a demonic state. No one disturbed him. Ye Qiu only looked at him quietly. Moreover, Ye Qiu didn't remove the terrifying killing array he had set up around Xiao Jinse.
Under the suppression of that absolute domain, Xiao Jinse had no ability to resist. This was a sword that could even cut through time. Back then, before Ye Qiu reached the Heavenly Venerable realm, its power was already extremely terrifying.
And now, he had already reached the extreme realm of the Dao Sacrificial Realm. His power had greatly increased by tens of thousands of times. Not only that, during this long cultivation life, Ye Qiu continuously perfected and completed the laws of this sword technique. It had already surpassed the limit of immortal techniques and truly reached the existence of super immortal techniques.
In terms of power, perhaps only the earth-shattering last strike of the Cursive Sword Art could compare. It was known as a shocking sword technique that cut through the ages and divided the two worlds.
The ninth strike!
Unfortunately, Ye Qiu had only scratched the surface of this sword technique. He roughly estimated that by the time he could truly step into the domain of this sword, his cultivation would have to at least reach the realm above Dao Sacrificial, or even the Immortal King realm.
This was not a joke. Back then, the division of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands came from this last strike of the Nine-leaf Grass.
It was also it who cut off the connection between the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands and the Immortal Realm in order to preserve the myriad lives, allowing this bloodline to continue.
Its great mental state was an existence that Ye Qiu could only dream of. Perhaps only after he truly understood its despair in that situation and its relieved mental state could it truly master this sword technique.
"Nothing is impossible! Xiao Jinse, you don't seem to have any flaws in your life, but this is often your greatest flaw. Because you're too perfect! So much so that you've never tasted life before, let alone know what pain is. You've never thought of opening your eyes and looking at this world. This is your greatest problem."
Ye Qiu reminded Xiao Jinse, who had fallen into a fiend and was stunned. This was the homework Meng Tianzheng had arranged.
"Is being too perfect a mistake?" As if hearing Ye Qiu's voice transmission, Xiao Jinse gradually stabilized and questioned. He did not think that he had made any mistakes in his life, let alone make any mistakes.
"Logically speaking, being too perfect is not a mistake, but the only mistake is that the Dao you cultivate is the Heavenly Dao."
"Heavenly Dao?"
Ye Qiu looked at him very calmly. After a while, he explained, "It's precisely because you cultivate the Heavenly Dao that your perfect life is your greatest flaw. The Heavenly Dao contains everything in the world, the seven emotions and six desires of the world, grudges, and all kinds of life and death calamities. However, you have never experienced them.
"You don't know! You don't know pain, let alone tragic farewells. Therefore, your Dao is imperfect. On the path of your life, you have never experienced any life and death calamity, let alone personally witnessed those scenes of purgatory on earth.
"What Dao do you cultivate again? The Heavenly Dao doesn't really forget about the world! However, you stubbornly think that by severing the mortal world, the Heavenly Dao can let you become immortal.
"However, the truth is that all the experts who have walked this path since ancient times have become immortals from the mortal world. Which one of us didn't finally comprehend the true will of the Heavenly Dao in despair and darkness?
"Have you thought about it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, it completely destroyed Xiao Jinse's faith. He could not accept that what he had always insisted on giving up was actually the most important part of him.
"No! You're lying. Are you trying to lie to me?" Xiao Jinse didn't think about it immediately, but denied it. No one could accept such a reality, not even Xiao Jinse.
"Haha, Dao! Do you really know what Dao is?" Ye Qiu didn't refute. Instead, he smiled. He already understood that with Xiao Jinse's intelligence, it was impossible for him not to think about it at all.
The reason why he retorted was because of the struggle in his heart and the dignity that he could not put down. Actually, his true heart had already sold him out. He had also begun to summarize, argue, and continuously reason with himself.
It would be strange if he didn't react at all.
Why did he say that? Because these words weren't said by Ye Qiu, but Meng Tianzheng.
Due to Daoist Tianfeng's existence, Meng Tianzheng couldn't directly interfere and guide Xiao Jinse, so he thought of such a way to get Xiao Jinse on the right track. Meng Tianzheng had denied Daoist Tianfeng's Heavenly Dao theory millions of years ago.
However, this stubborn fellow was very stubborn and refused to believe it. Not only that, the more Meng Tianzheng denied it, the more he wanted to prove that his Dao was right. He wanted to fight to the death on this path.
In the end, Meng Tianzheng really had no choice but to let him fend for himself. In any case, it was only his problem. However, Meng Tianzheng really couldn't bear to let Xiao Jinse's talent be wasted like Daoist Tianfeng.
That was why he thought of such a move. He would use Ye Qiu to ruthlessly destroy his pride and finally deny everything about him. A series of schemes made Xiao Jinse doubt life. If her heart was fragile, she would probably even want to commit suicide.
At this point, Ye Qiu had no choice but to comment. As expected of you, you sly old bastard!
Ye Qiu finally understood that all the bad things in this world were done by him, Meng Tianzheng. Even if he didn't do it, he had planned it behind the scenes.
Too bad! He didn't kill them, he only killed their hearts! And he killed it to the death.
Ye Qiu felt afraid just thinking about it. Fortunately, these methods weren't used on him.
