Chapter 1207 Alive
"There's hope!" Zhou Wen was delighted.
Unfortunately, the dent created by the power of the Ancient Emperor Scripture quickly recovered, which made Zhou Wen a little distressed again.
The power of the Ancient Human Emperor gave Zhou Wen the power of healing. No matter how badly he beat his opponent or how severe the damage was, he would eventually recover.
Because of this characteristic, it can be said that using the power of the Ancient Human Emperor to attack people is actually saving people.
Zhou Wen originally thought that there were traces of the power of death in Asura's body, so the power of the Ancient Human Emperor might have real lethality.
Now it seems that Zhou Wen was overthinking it.
"Is it true that the power of the Ancient Emperor Scripture cannot have lethality?" Zhou Wen had thought about this question when he was trapped before, but he could not come up with a conclusion.
In fact, the Ancient Emperor Scripture is not necessarily without lethality, but Zhou Wen's own understanding and promotion direction made the Ancient Emperor Scripture lean towards this line, and finally condensed into such a strange soul of the Ancient Human Emperor.
While Zhou Wen was still thinking, Asura pounced on him again, but unfortunately, he was blocked by Brahma.
Zhou Wen stood on top of Brahma. No matter how the Asura attacked, Brahma could withstand his attack. Even if Zhou Wen stood there in a daze, he did not suffer any harm.
Zhou Wen thought and practiced at the same time, punching Asura from time to time. The power of the Ancient Emperor Sutra became stronger and stronger, making Zhou Wen seem to be about to turn into light.
However, the power of the Ancient Emperor Scripture remained the same, and it did not possess true killing power. The wounds it caused would heal after a while.
Moreover, the mythical power of the Ancient Emperor Scripture cannot really harm Asura.
Zhou Wen blindly pursued lethality, but found that it had the opposite effect. Instead of causing fear, the power of the Ancient Emperor Scripture weakened, and the marks left on the Wheel of Destiny became shallower and shallower.
Zhou Wen suddenly realized that he was too persistent and that some things could not be forced.
Having given up on the idea of forcibly changing the characteristics of the Ancient Emperor Scripture, Zhou Wen began to deduce the Ancient Emperor Scripture again, and engraved all his thoughts and insights on the Wheel of Destiny.
The emperor born in blood and fire leads the human race to survive against the will of heaven and seek the true meaning of life.
This was Zhou Wen’s previous understanding of the Ancient Emperor Scripture, but after being trapped for a hundred years, Zhou Wen had a better understanding of life.
Even if Zhou Wen didn't think about this problem deliberately, he would inevitably think about it during the time of imprisonment.
What is life, after all? Zhou Wen used to think that simply being alive was life. But after a century of imprisonment, Zhou Wen discovered that life wasn't as simple as just being alive.
Being happy is living, being sad is also living. Traveling around the world and seeing all the scenery is living, lying in bed like a vegetable is also living.
There are many possibilities in life. Ten thousand people have ten thousand ways of living, but which way of living is meaningful?
Different people may have different answers. When people are extremely bored, they will always think of such questions. Zhou Wen also occasionally had such flashes of thought at that time and thought about this problem seriously, but he did not get the final answer.
In Zhou Wen's opinion, there's no single superior way to live. Some people find happiness simply lying in the sun, eating peanuts and drinking a beer. Others work tirelessly, devoting everything to achieving greater success and status, only then can they feel happiness.
In fact, there is no right or wrong. As long as you can make yourself feel happy, that is the ideal life.
Such understanding did not allow the Ancient Emperor Scripture to be promoted to the Fear Level, so Zhou Wen knew that he had not been able to grasp the key to the core.
"What kind of life is the one that the Ancient Emperor Scripture pursues? Immortality?" Zhou Wen pondered in his heart, but he felt that this was not the answer.
Qigong practitioners pursue immortality, but the Ancient Emperor does not. From the very beginning, all he sought was survival.
"If the conditions for survival have been met, then what should we do next?" Zhou Wen planned to think about the problem from a different angle.
An Sheng and others watched Zhou Wen fighting with Asura. Although they could not see the terrified Asura and Brahma, they could see the shock wave of fear generated by the battle between Brahma and Asura.
In their view, Zhou Wen was suspended in the air, thinking most of the time, and only occasionally throwing a punch. However, even if he just stood there motionless, the Fear-level Asura could not hurt him at all, but the terrifying shock wave shattered everything nearby.
"Madam, Master Wen's strength is probably not inferior to that of the commander-in-chief." A rescued officer said to Ouyang Lan.
"My son will naturally not be bad." Ouyang Lan said as a matter of course.
An Sheng also nodded and said, "Young Master Wen is extremely talented, and his future achievements will definitely exceed this. With the Governor-General and Young Master Wen in charge, Luoyang will surely be as stable as Mount Tai."
When the other officers heard this, they felt something strange.
As the saying goes, there can't be two tigers in one mountain. In the past, they thought that any genius was just a younger brother in front of An Tianzuo. With a master and a helper, there was naturally no need to worry about the situation of two tigers fighting each other.
However, Zhou Wen's demonstrated abilities made them a little worried: "What if the commander-in-chief can't suppress Zhou Wen? Will Luoyang one day become a situation where dragons and tigers fight each other?"
The ancients' countless experiences and cruel realities told them that this kind of thing was too common, so they naturally couldn't help but worry.
But Ouyang Lan and Ansheng did not have such concerns, because they knew that Zhou Wen's heart was not that small, at least Luoyang could not accommodate his heart.
At this time, the light on Zhou Wen's body did not continue to grow stronger, but gradually dimmed.
The Ancient Human Emperor was still merging with him, but the sun-like light was becoming increasingly dim, as if Zhou Wen was degenerating from a god into a mortal.
However, Zhou Wen's aura did not decline because of this. On the contrary, his aura became stronger and stronger.
"A thousand people have a thousand ways of living. Even with my wisdom, I can't tell which one is truly correct. But one thing I am certain of is that I want to live my life doing things that should be done at different ages. When I was five years old, I wanted an ordinary doll. That would have been my greatest joy, but I didn't have one at the time. The money my father left me was only enough for daily food. If I had used the money to buy a doll, I would have gone hungry for a week, so I chose to give up the doll."
"Nowadays, I can buy 10 million dolls easily, but the happiness and desire I had at that time can never be found again." Zhou Wen closed his eyes, and the past appeared in his mind like a movie.
