Blood flowed like a river under my feet, corpses piled up on both sides, and the sound of fierce fighting could be heard behind me.
So solemn and murderous!
The figure stood at the entrance of the town with his back to this side. Qin Ran walked over, looked at his back, and asked, "You're here?"
The figure paused, then replied, "I'm here."
"You shouldn't have come."
"I really shouldn't have come."
"But you came anyway."
The figure turned around, revealing a handsome and harmless face with a faint smile on it all the time, as if he didn't care about anything in the world, and as if everything in the world was under his control.
And that face was Qin Ran’s face. The person in front of him was Qin Ran’s clone, the one who got lost in Xuan Qin and wrote back to tell them that he was going to pursue his dream.
"If I don't come, you will be dead." The clone said with a smile.
"I won't..." Qin Ran replied, "My plan was for you to come together and kill them, so that Daojianmen would have a chance to keep the seeds. But who knew that only Zhishengu would come."
As he said this, he laughed, "On the contrary, when you came, you were going to be killed. Although you had someone cut off the connection between us, we are so close. It's actually just a matter of thought for me to take you back."
"You are reluctant to kill me." The clone was not afraid at all. He said confidently, "You know me well. If I wasn't 99.98% sure of my life, I wouldn't have come to see you rashly."
The feeling of talking to himself was strange and unpleasant. Kieran only then understood how his enemies felt when facing him.
"Then give me a few reasons quickly." He said to his clone, "Otherwise I will take you in any time."
"Emperor Xuan Qin is actually the incarnation of an old monster who has reached the state of transformation. He is building a grand unified dynasty to start the immortal cultivation mode. Under this mode, the talent gap between practitioners will be further narrowed, and everyone can truly practice and have food to eat. I think we should help him."
Facing him, the clone had no intention of keeping him in suspense, because he knew that the original body might really take him away if they didn't agree with him. He got straight to the point, "This is a great thing... You come to this world to do something, so I don't think we will object."
Although he had guessed it before, it was only now that Qin Ran really understood the inside story of Xuan Qin's war.
"Dynasty cultivation? Very good. This world is indeed not short of people who care about the world." He nodded, but suddenly realized, "How will the sect cope with the Dynasty cultivation mode?"
"This is why I came to you..." the clone said, "Let's cooperate. After the matter is accomplished, Daojian Sect will become the state religion of Xuanqin Immortal Dynasty."
Kieran understood what he meant. It meant that except for the state religion, all other sects would be destroyed or disbanded.
"Unify the mortal world and destroy the sect. You are a mortal country..." Qin Ran turned around and pointed at the Xuan Qin Kingdom Jindan who was fighting hard in the Daojian Sect. "Just relying on those two or three big cats and small cats, you want to cooperate with the Daojian Sect? You want to destroy the sect? Just like changing the practice system? Are you still asleep?"
"So it's me who comes to you, not someone else. I come to ask you for help." said the clone.
"Haha!" Qin Ran shook his head and laughed, "Obviously, I'm not interested at all."
"The general trend of the world is that after a long period of division, there will be unification, and after a long period of unification, there will be division. Right now, the Immortal Relics Land has reached the point where it must be united. And the initial force was put forward by you."
The clone looked at Qin Ran seriously and said, "Zhisheng Valley is finished. The next stage of the Hengduan Mountains will be the bipolar era of Daojian Sect and Wuyin Sword Sect, and you will definitely not develop peacefully. Sooner or later there will be a war to decide who will be the number one sect in the Hengduan Mountains. I believe in you very much, and you will definitely be the winner in the end."
"Believe me? You are so narcissistic." Qin Ran laughed.
"And if you have the help of Xuan Qin, it will be easier for you to unify the Hengduan Mountains." The clone continued, "Similarly, if Xuan Qin gets the help of Daojianmen, our unification process of the Immortal Relics Land will also be easy.
"You fight among the sects, and I fight in the court. If we unite and become a double-sided force, the unified Xuanqin Immortal Dynasty will definitely be established."
Qin Ran looked at the clone seriously, shook his head, and sighed: "You are no longer me."
"How am I not you?" the clone wondered.
"I have been a coward in Danfeng for more than 20 years. If there was a need for trouble, I would have gone out to do it long ago." Qin Ran said calmly, "I was not planning to cause trouble, but I was forced to do something to protect Danfeng. Besides, I am now a married man with a family.
"Shiyin and I have already agreed that after we finish our business here, we will leave the Immortal Land and go out to see the outside world. Just treat it as a trip. I'm in this world, so I should go out and see the sun.
"Look, you are completely different from me. You have the world, the people, and power in your heart. You are already a different person."
The clone was silent after hearing this for a while, then he said: "If you leave Daojianmen, Daojianmen will sooner or later confront Xuanqin, and then it will be very difficult for me to do anything."
Qin Ran reached out and patted the clone's shoulder, saying, "Don't I still have you? I won't accept you and let you pursue your dreams. It's good to be able to do something for this world.
“As for the unified Immortal Cultivation Dynasty, there are endless battles with the outside world, intrigues and deceptions in the court, a new social system to be built, and new ways of allocating resources to be tried… I feel tired just thinking about it.
"I'll leave the things I find tiring to your clones. Isn't this the meaning of your existence?"
"I am you again now?" the clone rolled his eyes.
“Haha…” Qin Ran laughed, looking at the corpses and body parts scattered all over the ground, and said to his clone, “I will help you clean up the Hengduan Mountains. But for the rest, you will have to find a chance to discuss it with the head of the sect. You guys handle these things, I don’t want to get involved.”
Knowing himself best, the clone looked at Qin Ran, sighed, but did not continue to persuade him.
"Oh, by the way, since you have come back after all, as the original body, I still can't let you return empty-handed." Qin Ran suddenly straightened his expression and said to the clone,
"I see that your cultivation strength is still at the level when I separated you. I guess you haven't found the corresponding cultivation method. I will tell you now about your subsequent cultivation direction. If you want to do something big, how can you do it without a high level of cultivation?
"First, you can find another kind of water from heaven and earth to reshape your body; second, you can find a special method for refining the spirit."
The clone was shocked and asked, "I can find a way to use the strange water of heaven and earth, but what is the method of refining the spirit?"
“I’ll give it to you later…” Qin Ran continued, “Then, since you want to unify the Immortal Relics Land, there is a force that you need to pay special attention to.”
"What force?"
“The Yuan organization!” Qin Ran’s face was heavy as he spoke in a concentrated voice, “This organization is more terrifying than you think. It may be a demonic organization of the same size as the Lingnan Immortal Sect.”
The clone's expression was startled, and he asked, "Is it so terrifying?"
"It is really that scary. But the Immortal Relics Land is just a small branch of the 'Yuan' organization, so don't be scared." Qin Ran shook his head and smiled, "But the old home in Zhishen Valley should have been stolen by the 'Yuan' organization by now."
"Okay..." After saying that, he raised his hand and pointed a finger at the clone's forehead, "I'll give you the visualization diagram."
