Chapter 274 Confusion
"Until that day... I saw black clouds all over the sky, and the stench coming from the brown earth beneath my feet is something I still remember! It was a rotten smell that chilled my soul, and the stench came from even more corpses buried beneath the earth, a stench I might never be able to remove in my entire lifetime..."
"In the black clouds, I saw an extremely dense bloody and resentful energy and heard the roars of countless souls. I saw an ancient battlefield... I followed a road piled with countless bones, stepping on the blood-stained ground. I saw the other side of the clouds: nine crumbling palaces!"
"I saw the elders who suppressed their souls and bones in the palace! But the palace is already crumbling! The war provoked by those invaders has left the battlefield full of lonely souls and resentful spirits! The bloody aura has accumulated over time! The war has even exhausted the spiritual power of Yunze Continent! I suddenly understand why, during that period, it was so difficult for the spiritual plants on Yunze Continent to survive. I understand why, during that period, even though everyone was recuperating, the number of newborn babies, even the offspring of mortals, was pitifully small!"
"The war consumes more than just the lives of lowly ants! It consumes more than just the kindness and love of the human world! It consumes more than just the homes and aspirations of countless beings! While consuming resources and breeding sin, they are also depriving the world of its vitality! The source of power is extremely depleted, and the energy balance is unbalanced! Life is constantly being drained!"
"Although Yunze Continent achieved the final victory, it also reached its end! Although they tried their best to make amends, some things cannot be remedied by simply repenting and making amends! Not all regrets will be forgiven! Beneath this battlefield, the deep-buried sins, greed, bloodshed... and the polluted original power!"
"The power of the bloody evil spirit! It's even threatening to overturn these nine holy temples! I don't know... what to do... Because after witnessing war, we don't want to see bloodshed again... Resting and recuperating is the best solution, but unfortunately..."
"I've read countless tomes, and my hair has gradually turned white. That's the despair and emptiness that even elixirs can't quench. I want to discuss with other virtuous monks the path to salvation! But they laugh at me! Laugh at my stupidity and ignorance! Laugh at my madness and overestimation of my own abilities!"
"Yes! In the world of immortal cultivation, living a good life is the most correct and right choice! I also tried to give up, but every time I closed my eyes, my mind would appear those teenagers and children who were just practicing Qi, building foundations, and reaching the Golden Core stage. They were only in their teens and teens, and the old men crawling on the ground! They were holding tattered weapons! They were rushing to the front! Obviously... obviously so vulnerable!"
"I'm suddenly a little confused. What's going on in this world of immortal cultivation? I suddenly want to laugh! Because it's so funny!"
"How ridiculous! When did the world they fought for with their lives become what it is today?! Look! The piles of corpses are silent, but those people are already impatiently standing up! Using those delicate fingers, like sharp swords, they pierce people's lungs! Break their spines! Shatter them into pieces! Those who are buried are considered guilty! Those who live in shame are taken for granted!"
