Chapter 44: Those two little guys from the Lotus of All Beings, you need to be more careful not to be...
Ying Bu Ran looked directly into the eyes of this First Generation and said slowly, "Saving the world shouldn't just be the sacrifice of one party. I don't see any need to save the people of the world who see the savior as a sacrifice that can be abandoned at any time."
"Today, they will abandon the heroic women who once saved the world for a moment of peace. Tomorrow, they will sacrifice even more just to survive. A world like this will eventually doom itself."
Upon hearing her explanation, the First Generation raised an eyebrow, his lips curled up with a sly smile. "Unfortunately, if that's what you're thinking, I'm afraid I can't give you this Lotus of All Living Things."
She looked at Ying Bu Ran, waiting for her next reaction.
Ying Bu Ran was surprised for a moment, then shook his head and smiled, "It's nothing, it's just an artifact. The final outcome depends on the person. I believe that there will be people who agree with me and our point of view and join us in finding a way to save Zhan Tian. In fact, we are not fighting alone. We have countless people standing behind us, supporting us. That's enough."
Even if you hold a magical weapon, what good is it if you are alone?
Seeing that there was no hope of obtaining the artifact, Ying Bu Ran did not plan to stay any longer. It would be better to go back and discuss with others to find the new destiny body first.
Thinking of this, Ying Bu Ran bowed and prepared to leave: "Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will take my leave now."
After saying that, she turned around and tried to find a way to leave.
The first generation didn't expect Ying Bu Ran to leave so directly, and quickly stopped him: "Hey, I haven't finished yet."
She coughed and said seriously, "Although your answer doesn't meet the standard, it aligns with my point of view. This Lotus of All Living Things is now under my management, so I intend to give it to you to help you."
This time, it was Ying Bu Ran who was stunned: "Huh?"
The First Generation summoned the Lotus of All Living Things, stretched out his hand, and dragged it towards Ying Bu Ran. He then shrugged, "The standard just now was set by that fellow. She was born in accordance with the will of heaven and earth to save the world, so the answer is naturally inclined to dedicate everything to all living beings. But I am different. I am only mortal, and I have my own standards."
Ying Bu Ran looked at the Lotus of All Living Things floating in front of him, then looked up at the First Generation: "Is that so? Does she regret it?"
"Who knows? There is no chance to ask her now. Maybe you can see her residual soul later and ask her." The first generation said, but she guessed that she should regret it, because the temporary sacrifice did not bring peace, but endless disasters.
Ying Bu Ran knew he had asked a question he shouldn't have, and for a moment, he didn't dare say anything else. At this moment, the Lotus of All Beings seemed unhappy about being ignored by the two of them, and began to dance up and down, its flames burning even more vigorously.
Ying Bu Ran subconsciously stretched out his hand to hold the Lotus of All Living Beings. The moment he touched the lotus, the lotus turned into light and merged into his brow, leaving behind a lotus mark before disappearing.
"This Lotus of All Living Things should be able to stabilize your condition. It took quite a bit of effort for a half-human, half-ghost to maintain stability." The First Generation looked at Ying Bu Ran, nodded, then his expression became more serious as he reminded, "But I must remind you, don't use this thing unless you have no other options."
Ying Bu Ran immediately looked up and frowned slightly, not expecting this: "Can I ask why?"
First Generation: "How should I put it? It's mainly related to the current situation. Due to the frequent arrival of the Sky's Wrath, the spiritual power of this world is no longer as strong as before. The upper limit of what you can reach is far lower than what we were able to achieve back then. You have to know that back then, she used up almost all of her strength to use the Lotus of All Living Things to unite the power of the world. If you want to launch it now..."
The First Generation looked Ying Bu Ran up and down and shook his head: "I guess it will cost me all my life force."
So that's how it is... Ying Bu Ran's expression grew more serious, and he finally nodded slowly: "I understand."
"Okay, I've given you the things. This place is almost gone." The first generation clapped his hands and was about to leave. Seeing Ying Bu Ran's hesitation, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "Any questions?"
Ying Bu Ran hesitated for a while, and finally nodded: "Yes, senior also knows that I am a destiny body, which is the target of those people."
"Hmm." The first generation nodded, motioning for her to continue.
"So, should I fight with them? I'm worried I'll become a burden to them. But if I stay behind, I feel..."
The First Generation continued Ying Bu Ran's words, "There's a feeling of helplessness. Even though I've always been protected by others, I still feel like a burden to them, right?"
She spread her hands and said sternly, "If that's the case, then follow your heart. In my opinion, you're a sitting duck wherever you go, so it doesn't matter. It just depends on whether you want to fight alongside us or wait for others to circumvent you."
Indeed, it was a very realistic problem. Ying Bu Ran covered her forehead, having not expected this. Even if she had stayed in Wind Chasing City, those who wanted to attack her would have sent others away before striking, just like the plague that time. They knew no bounds when it came to violence, as long as they could achieve their goal.
In this case, there is nothing to hesitate about. Instead of staying at the back and becoming a flower that cannot withstand wind and rain, it is better to stand in the front and fight together. At least you can accumulate some experience and have some ways to protect yourself.
Ying Bu Ran nodded respectfully from the bottom of his heart and bowed to the First Generation: "I understand. Thank you, Senior."
The first generation nodded with satisfaction. This little guy is much more flexible than that guy. Once that guy makes up his mind, he will be stubborn and will keep going even if there is a dead end.
"Now that you understand, let's go. Goodbye. We won't have the chance to meet again after this time." The first generation waved to Ying Bu Ran, then snapped his fingers, and the magic circle that had been seen before appeared under Ying Bu Ran's feet.
Before she could say anything, she was sent away.
The first generation watched his figure begin to dim and sighed, "What else do you want to say? I won't be able to bear it if you say more. She looks like her, but she is also very different."
"I hope you can get what you want this time and win the final victory, and don't repeat our mistakes. Those two little guys, please be more careful and don't let them be deceived."
…
Ying Bu Ran was blinded by the bright light. When the light faded, before she could even open her eyes, she was hugged. A voice rang in her ears, a little tearful: "Ahhhhhhhhhhh, Ah Ran, you're finally out! If you don't come out, I'm going to force my way in."
Ying Bu Ran chuckled and patted Zhao Chao An on the back: "It's okay, it's okay. I came out safely. I got the stuff too."
She broke free from Zhao Chaoan's embrace and summoned the Lotus of All Beings: "This is the divine artifact, called the Lotus of All Beings, which can gather the power of all people in the world."
"Wow! That's really a treasure. Are there any conditions to activate it?" Zhao Chaoan asked in exclamation.
Ying Bu Ran hesitated for a while and then shook his head gently: "No, he said we will know when the time comes."
Zhao Chaoan felt a little regretful, but could still accept it: "After all, it's a divine weapon. It would be terrible if it could be activated so easily."
"We have obtained the things, let's leave." Ying Bu Ran took back the Lotus of All Beings and said to Zhao Chaoan.
Zhao Chaoan nodded, and this time he took her hand and walked away, fearing that Ying Bu Ran would disappear again if he was not careful. Although there was some remnant from the previous incident, it was still very unsettling.
Perhaps because they obtained the artifact of this secret realm, the protection mechanism of the secret realm completely disappeared, and the way out was extremely smooth. Soon they were rescued back to the ground.
As soon as they set foot on the land outside, Ying Bu Ran's Tianling Mirror began to flash wildly. They found that there were many messages sent by Su Yunying and Qi Yiwen.
Ying Bu Ran glanced at the news, his expression slightly changing as he said to Zhao Chao An, "The Celestial Spirit Body has appeared, and it's not too far away from us. I heard about this a quarter of an hour ago. This trip to the secret realm is taking longer than I thought."
"Let me see... shall we go? We can go faster if I take you with me." Zhao Chaoan said after looking at the map.
Ying Bu Ran nodded and was carried on Zhao Chaoan's back. Then the ghost king moved quickly with the ghost energy under his feet and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
A quarter of an hour ago.
"...That's probably it. The people in heaven informed the sect leader of the news in advance, and they have already brought people over to encircle and suppress the people guarding the place." Zhao Qingxun said to Qi Yiwen. They had even set out a long time ago, and it was Qiao Yu who told her the news.
Qi Yiwen nodded and typed quickly on the other end of the Tianling Mirror: "Tsk, this is cheating! I was wondering why Master didn't have such specific information. It turns out he hasn't appeared yet."
Zhao Qingxun was a little surprised: "You know this too?"
"We can only calculate a rough range. We're still searching for the exact location. After all, nothing's happening right now, and large-scale actions are inherently prone to causing panic. Master is also continuing the calculations." Qi Yiwen said, and the Heavenly Spirit Mirror flashed again. "Master also calculated that half a quarter of an hour later, the Heavenly Spirit Body would appear. Tsk, it's still a little late. Cheating, cheating!"
She was so angry that she passed the news over immediately.
Qi Yiwen scratched her head. During this period of time, she followed Shen Cangwu everywhere and made calculations, and her hair had turned bald. Then she sighed and slowly typed to the other party, "You told us about this in advance. As a reward, I will tell you something too."
"No need, this is my job." Zhao Qingxun said slowly.
"About Ying Bu Ran."
Zhao Qingxun withdrew the previous message: "You say."
"Friend Ying Dao now faces another fatal crisis, which will occur in two years."
Zhao Qingxun frowned deeply and typed: "Two years later, is it because of the Heavenly Sacrifice?"
Qi Yiwen denied this speculation: "No, the Heavenly Sacrifice will be held in about one year and nine months, and two years later there will be other things. What I can reveal is about the Heaven Slashing."
About Zhan Tian? That was the Lotus of All Living Things that the senior mentioned. Zhao Qingxun thought about the fact that his blood had been used and came to a conclusion: "I understand. Thank you."
"Regarding that fatal crisis, I have a way to help her get through it." Zhao Qingxun thought for a moment, left a word and set off.
That was two years later. What she needed to complete now was the fight for the destiny body this time.
