Chapter 517: It’s Just a Planned Disaster
During the day, Cangshu and the others were not asked to rush back, but were allowed to stay temporarily. The issues raised by Cangshu were indeed worth thinking about.
Will there ever be a day when humans and gods are separated?
Back then, the only thing they thought about was that people could live longer through cultivation. Today, the path to immortality has indeed begun, and many masters are now living longer.
But if we live longer, will we become gods? The relationship between gods and humans will be a new round of thinking...
Cang Shu's words made Bai Tian suddenly realize that theocracy was not just about him, but also about many other people.
After reaching a certain level of cultivation, everyone is actually a "god." With strength comes power, and what Ascension Island needs to do is to temporarily control this power...
The next evening, Bai Tian sat alone on a tree and watched the sunset.
A middle-aged man flew over. This man came with Cang Shu, but Cang Shu never introduced who he was, and he had no impression of this man during the day.
Floating down to Bai Tian's side, the middle-aged man whispered, "Hao Tian, I want to talk to you."
Bai Tian leaned against the tree trunk: "Are you Cang Shu's son?"
"Um, no. I am Ji Zhi, the future ruler."
Bai Tian's mouth twitched slightly, and he sat up straight, looking at him strangely: "Are you Ji Jun's eldest son?"
Ji Zhi was quite embarrassed: "Yes, and my father has confirmed that I will inherit the throne in five years."
This is so embarrassing, Cang Shu didn't even say a word!
Ji Zhi continued, "Haotian, I mainly want to know whether ascension really exists."
Bai Tian sighed softly, "No one can answer your question. This is just like the Jedi Tiantong back then, no, it's a step further. Everything we do now is just groping and exploring."
"In fact, up to now, we have been exploring the word 'cultivation'. What is cultivation? What is practice? What is the end? I don't know, and no one knows, because no one has ever been there."
Ji Zhi frowned slightly: "My father said that there are three realms in this world..."
"That's right, there are three realms." Bai Tian smiled softly, "The human realm, the spirit realm, and the heavenly realm. However, we're still in the exploratory stage, and the other two worlds aren't mature yet. So I say, we can only explore. There's no right or wrong in exploration."
Ji Zhi hesitated and lowered his voice: "Haotian, actually... I'm wondering, is there a possibility that one of us can cultivate to the extreme, and then, like Gonggong did back then, transform himself into the Tao, and open the path to ascension?"
Bai Tian smiled bitterly: "I can't give you an answer."
To transform oneself into the Tao was a very vague matter, and he really couldn't explain it clearly.
Ji Zhi sighed slightly: "Jiuzhou is now scattered. Even if I take charge of the Kingdom of Heaven, I will not be able to change the scattered situation in the short term. However, I want to do something for Jiuzhou."
"Haotian, I'm so confused. Since Xuanyuan... no, since Taichu, every generation of the Nine Provinces' Lords has had their own tasks and missions. But my father said that by my generation, there are no more. My mission is to defend the Three Cities of Heaven, nothing more."
I was stunned during the day. Are you dissatisfied with the lack of work?
Bai Tian smiled bitterly: "So you want to transform yourself into the Tao and open the true door to ascension?"
Ji Zhi nodded: "Yes, if I can do it, it will be a good thing for Jiuzhou and even the human world."
This awareness is really awesome!
Bai Tian smiled. "You think too much. Your father's mission is to open the Kingdom of Heaven, but you, defending it, is even harder. Moreover, the human world will be in chaos for a long time to come. How to survive this chaotic period is the key."
"You don't have to do earth-shattering things to be great; those who remain unknown are equally great. As you said, since the beginning of time, every generation has its own tasks and missions. But have you ever considered that since the founding of Yancheng, countless people have died in the pursuit of exploration and cultivation?"
"Ji Zhi, you need to open your mind a little. Every word recorded in our history books was forged with blood. Those densely packed histories were actually created by the passion of countless people."
"Why are we building the Nine Provinces and the Kingdom of Heaven? It's because we hope that one day this civilization can be passed down for thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years."
"One day, when our descendants open the thick annals of history, these vibrant words will enable them to live better lives. That will be the greatest honor for us, our ancestors, and our greatest mission..."
As the setting sun shines, the eyes of the day begin to shine.
Beneath the wheels of history, countless unknown corpses are buried. It is these corpses that have paved a path, and the name of this path is inheritance!
Ji Zhi also gazed at the sunset, his eyes moist, his voice slightly choked: "Haotian, I understand..."
Preserving and passing on is more important than anything else!
Three days later, Cang Shu, Ji Zhi and others left.
Although they didn't stay long, they gained a lot of insights during the day.
Perhaps Cang Shu was right. This human world should have a powerful force...
What Bai Tian didn't expect was that a few days after Cang Shu and the others left, another person came.
It’s Donghua from Tianzhou.
This kid deliberately grew a beard, which was particularly long. He was also wearing a long robe, and looked more and more like a Taoist. He came alone.
Bai Tian was quite surprised: "Donghua, you even came here in person. What's the matter? Your superior country doesn't care anymore?"
Unexpectedly, Donghua actually laughed and said, "Haotian, you are right. I have already abdicated."
Forehead? ?
Bai Tian's mouth twitched slightly: "You want to abdicate?"
Bai Tian soon realized something and his expression suddenly became serious. "You want Bai Dong to take over?"
"Not really." Donghua shook his head. "Bai Dong is still the Holy Son, and he's not really in charge of things right now. I don't know where he went."
Bai Tian heaved a sigh of relief. He had previously told Dong Hua that Bai Dong must not be allowed to be the ruler. Even in the Zhou Kingdom in the northwest, he had emphasized to Bai Xi that he must not be the one in power.
Although Haotian doesn't have much majesty, the two words "Haotian" are still very prestigious. Once his sons become the rulers, it will be a big deal and will breed many problems, such as religion!
Donghua continued, "Haotian, I came here to ask if I can ascend."
It was even weirder during the day: "You want to ascend?"
Donghua nodded: "Yes, ever since my mother died, I've felt more and more like I'm not a human being."
So cruel?
The look in his eyes during the day was even weirder. Was he calling himself a non-human?
Donghua continued, "Haotian, these past few years, I've had a very strange thought. Everything in this world might have been arranged long ago. Each of us coming into this world is nothing more than a prearranged disaster..."
