"Don't panic. We can't get out, and he can't get in. Besides, I've already calculated that a catastrophe is coming. It's safer inside Tianyuan. It'll be more dangerous outside!"
Lu Xueqing took a deep breath and said.
"catastrophe?"
Luo Wuchen was completely bewildered.
What calamity could there be in this world besides you?
"She's right. A catastrophe is coming. This is a civil war among humans, and it has nothing to do with us evil sects. We just need to wait and see and reap the benefits!"
An aged voice came from the cave, and the two looked over to see an old man in a black robe coming from the depths of the cave.
It was Feng Wuhen, who had been seriously injured.
After several days of rest, Feng Wuhen's injuries have improved slightly, but without the nourishment of negative energy, it is absolutely impossible for him to return to his original state.
"Master, are you feeling any better?"
Luo Wuchen quickly stepped forward.
Feng Wuhen waved his hand, then came to Lu Xueqing, clasped his hands to his chest, and nodded slightly.
"Greetings, Void Maiden!"
Lu Xueqing nodded lightly, "You cultivate evil arts, so we are kindred spirits. There's no need for formalities!"
“You are too modest, Void Maiden. You are the messenger of the Void, the guide to the calamity of death. I am just a heretical cultivator, how can I compare to you! However, our goals are the same, both of us are to destroy this hateful world. So, when that day truly comes, in consideration of our friendship today, I hope that you, Void Maiden, can show leniency and grant my master and me the method of immortality!” Feng Wuhen said earnestly.
Regardless of whether one cultivates righteous or evil methods, the ultimate goal is nothing more than immortality. The Void Woman is the closest being to the Void, and she is also very knowledgeable about the Tribulation of Death. The only way to safely pass through the Tribulation of Death is to rely on this woman.
Even those who are immortal can only escape death once; they cannot say they can escape it every time.
Lu Xueqing nodded. "Don't worry, as long as you are willing to work hard for me, I will not let you perish in the calamity of death. What will ultimately destroy this world is nothing more than earth, water, fire, and wind. The reason why the void exists forever is because it transcends the four elements and is not within the five elements! If the eternal night descends, I will teach you the method to resist the calamity of death!"
The master and apprentice's eyes lit up, and they bowed in unison, "Thank you, Lady!"
Lu Xueqing nodded slightly and said with narrowed eyes, "There is still some time before the calamity of death arrives. If I'm not mistaken, the human race will break out into fierce infighting. We should just wait and see. Lin Yu is seriously injured now. Even if he is the reincarnation of the Human Emperor, he will probably have a hard time surviving this calamity of war!"
Luo Wuchen looked surprised. "Lady, Master, you both mentioned civil war. What exactly do you mean by civil war? Is there anyone in this world besides us who can stand against Lin Yu?"
"certainly!"
Before Lu Xueqing could speak, Feng Wuhen spoke first.
"Lin Yu has only been awakened for a short time. His current cultivation level is probably not even comparable to Ao Shuang's back then! However, even if Ao Shuang reigned supreme in China, it's hard to say that she could dominate the four continents! In those distant and unknown lands, on other continents, there are various alien races, alien ghosts, and alien beasts, many of whom possess extraordinary abilities. There are even powerful technological civilizations that surpass modern times and are ambitious. Everyone has different ideologies, and their ways of resisting the calamity are also different. The closer the calamity approaches, the more depleted and scarce the spiritual energy becomes. In order to safely pass through this calamity, some civilizations will exert their strength at this time, using all their energy to plunder resources without restraint!"
Feng Wuhen spoke eloquently.
Luo Wuchen was completely bewildered.
He knew some things about the unknown places, but he had never seen them with his own eyes.
"Master, could it be that you have been to the unknown land?" Luo Wuchen asked with a strange expression.
Feng Wuhen nodded. "Of course I've been there, it's just that others don't know! I, Feng Wuhen, am an amazing person. When I was young, the person I admired the most was Ao Shuang. She, a woman, dared to step out of the Antarctic ice wall, so why shouldn't I! However, crossing glaciers is indeed not an easy task. Back then, if I hadn't encountered a fortuitous event, I probably would have collapsed on the way! Fortunately, I was blessed by the heavens and crossed the glaciers, arriving in an unknown land, witnessing the customs and cultures of the four continents, and even coming into contact with an ultramodern civilization! In that world, people did not focus on cultivating immortality, but they used science and technology to study the universe to its extreme. Core technologies such as nuclear weapons, space carriers, etc., which are now China's current core technologies, have long surpassed them by countless versions! That was the first time I felt that martial arts were not the only means to achieve immortality! Human wisdom is infinite!"
After hearing his master say all this, Luo Wuchen felt it was all absurd.
He had always thought that his master was an old-fashioned person, but he never expected that he could still say things that advocated science!
It's simply unbelievable!
"What's so strange about that!"
Lu Xueqing couldn't help but scoff, "My heart is the world, and this world is all a manifestation of the human heart! The human heart can manifest anything—beautiful or ugly, square or round—including this world of round heaven and square earth. The ugly state of the world is all a result of the collective karma of humanity! The more the world develops, the stronger human greed becomes, and in the end, destruction is inevitable! Just like this universe, it goes through formation, existence, decay, and emptiness, and finally returns to nothingness and emptiness! This is in accordance with the way of heaven!"
Hearing these remarks, Luo Wuchen was even more shocked.
He had never understood the concept of death before, and didn't know why the void wanted to destroy the world.
Now he seems to understand a little.
Everything in this world is born and then dies, just like flowers blooming and withering, and the sun rising in the east and setting in the west—it's all perfectly natural.
Just as humans are born, grow old, get sick, and die, the universe also goes through the processes of formation, existence, decay, and emptiness.
From this perspective, the annihilation of the world and the extinction of humanity seem to be in accordance with the laws of nature.
Thinking about it this way, what they are doing doesn't seem to be a bad thing at all; on the contrary, it seems to be doing justice on behalf of Heaven!
Feng Wuhen said with a look of agreement, "Compared to this vast universe, human life is but a drop in the ocean, and even the rise and fall of the entire human race is insignificant! What is meant to be born will be born, and what is meant to perish will perish. True cultivators retain no emotion and crave no love! I saw this through back in my imprisoned youth! Therefore, I believe that following Xu and the female lead is the right path! Only by becoming Xu's servant and serving Xu can we obtain true immortality! Moreover, once the calamity is over, we will become the first to control resources, and we will surely receive the blessings of heaven and earth, becoming the new masters of the human race!"
Upon hearing this, Luo Wuchen was so excited he almost peed himself.
Previously, he had followed the rebellion and done bad things without understanding what was going on. Only now did he realize how great his master's ideals were.
If they truly become the masters of the new era, they can do whatever they want!
