Chapter 240: A Century of Enlightenment



With a casual move of his hand, Long Junhai surrounded Cang Jie with the mighty blood river of the Nether Sea. The other party wailed again, and it made people's scalps tingle, but Long Junhai was unmoved. He wanted to completely eliminate this scourge, otherwise there would definitely be big trouble in the future.

After a while, Cang Jie could no longer endure this inhuman pain. He begged desperately, "Please let me go! I am willing to work like a slave for you!"

Long Junhai sneered, "Why do I need so many beasts? I just want you dead. At first, I was still patient and wanted to learn something about the will of heaven from you, but now I have no interest anymore. So, what's the point of keeping you around?"

"I'll tell you everything! As long as you let me go, I'll tell you everything! I also know the method to ascend to the fairyland! I also know the location of the Netherworld Treasure House! That's where I got my Judge's Pen!" Cang Jie tried his best to make Long Junhai change his mind. He really didn't want to die!

Upon hearing this, Long Junhai smiled and stopped the torture Cang Jie was suffering from the Dark Sea Blood River. "Wouldn't you have avoided this suffering if you had cooperated earlier? However, I still won't believe anything you say. I want to search your soul memory!"

"What? No! My soul will be shattered!" Cang Jie subconsciously refused, but then realized that he had no choice at all, so he quickly changed his words and said, "Take my soul memory, but please let me live and don't destroy my soul! I am willing to be your slave for all eternity!"

"This... okay." Long Junhai reluctantly agreed to the other party, and then used the soul-searching technique on Cang Jie.

Cang Jie cooperated very well from beginning to end, because if he deliberately concealed something, Long Junhai would be able to feel it from his soul, and would definitely kill him without hesitation!

Long Junhai's soul-searching technique is different from others. Others' soul-searching technique is just like reading a book to check the memory fragments in the soul, but his soul-searching technique is the soul replication that Medusa taught him!

Now Cang Jie did not resist at all, and Long Junhai's soul replication was also very smooth. After he had copied all of Cang Jie's soul information, he directly released his soul power and condensed it into a huge ferocious beast!

Cang Jie also felt something was wrong instantly and wanted to escape without thinking, but it was too late now. The ferocious beast transformed from Long Junhai's soul swallowed the other's soul in one gulp!

"Ah! You vile fellow! You are unfaithful..."

Cang Jie's soul was completely devoured, his head lost the control of the soul, and instantly fell into the blood river of the Nether Sea. In the blink of an eye, he turned into blood.

Long Junhai rubbed his temples. In his opinion, trust and loyalty are very important. At least, they are the most important things besides life!

However, staying alive is the most important thing. He had just thought about making Cang Jie his slave, but after copying the other party's soul information, Long Junhai found that this guy wanted to surrender on the surface, but actually wanted to curse him and let him be killed as soon as possible. Could he accept such a slave?

"Without value, it will just wither away. It's not me who's treacherous, it's you who's saying one thing and thinking another. Don't blame others."

Long Junhai muttered to himself, then sat cross-legged, quietly processing the information he had just received from Cang Jie's soul.

Cang Jie is a genius in cultivation. He has reached his current level in less than 100,000 years and can crush many masters of the same level. Although part of this is due to the power of the Judge's Pen, if he himself is not strong, he will not be able to exert the full power of the Judge's Pen.

Cang Jie's perception and understanding of the will of heaven is very profound. After seeing his perception and understanding, Long Junhai also has his own understanding of the will of heaven.

The will of heaven is not something you can comprehend just as others have. Comprehending is something that cannot be seen through or touched. Before the tribulation period, it all depends on one's aptitude for cultivation, but after the tribulation period, it all depends on how high a person's comprehension is.

Cang Jie is a person with high comprehension. He has his own unique insights into life and death, and he uses the Judge's Pen to perfection. At least for now, Long Junhai cannot use it as skillfully as he does.

However, Long Junhai found his own direction of perception from Cang Jie's perception. The other party perceived life and death, so his perception should be something beyond life and death, at least that's what Long Junhai himself thought.

Long Junhai has not let go of life and death. He even cherishes his life very much. He can do anything to survive. However, this does not mean that what he pursues is survival. Even if he is given unlimited life, he will not feel very happy.

So, what was he pursuing? Power? No, long ago, he had the power to look down on the world, but he ultimately chose to give it up because it wasn't what he wanted.

Wealth? Perhaps, Long Junhai really likes to go there. This is a thought deeply rooted in his mind, related to his original poor life. So even after traveling through another world, he still likes to collect wealth.

Beauty? This is definitely not the case. Long Junhai likes some women and will risk his life for them, but this is not what he pursues. Even if he has three thousand beauties around him, he will not think that he is the winner in life.

So, since life, rights, power, wealth, and women are no longer Long Junhai's ultimate pursuit, what is his real pursuit?

This question gave Long Junhai a headache. He thought about it for a long time, a hundred years! But the result he finally got was confusion, doubt, puzzlement, loss and emptiness.

If he had obtained everything he deserved, he would be a winner in life and a top power in the eyes of others, but for Long Junhai himself, there would be no meaning in continuing to live at that time!

Finally, Long Junhai barely found an answer for himself. This answer was ambiguous. It was the meaning of life. What he pursued was the meaning of life!

The meaning of this life is relatively broad, including the power to pursue the pinnacle of life, earning all the wealth in the world, obtaining a life beyond all realms, having the right to be admired by all beings, and collecting stunning beauties.

These life goals will give people a kind of motivation. Regardless of whether they are good or bad, right or wrong, at least they can make people less confused.

With this answer in mind, Long Junhai slowly opened his eyes. His thinking this time was an epiphany in his life. Without this epiphany, his future practice would probably become extremely difficult.

However, Long Junhai also knew that he had not truly found what he was pursuing. The answer before him was only to temporarily relieve his confusion. His future pursuits might be broader, greater, and more regrettable.
