"However, this is not the reason or basis for you to act so recklessly. After all, there are always people who are better than you. In this era of strong men and masters, if you do this, you will only hurt yourself."
He snorted and said, "Shachen, I advise you to take care of yourself and don't make mistakes."
The dust did not respond because there was no need.
When Zhao Gongming saw that Shachen didn't say anything, he thought he had touched Shachen's sore spot and made Shachen feel scared.
He snorted coldly, but did not continue to mock, because his goal was to get Shachen out of the Quicksand River.
Go to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures.
Zhao Gongming said calmly, "Shachen, although my words may be harsh, they are from the heart. Since ancient times, honest advice is always unpleasant to the ear. Whether you like it or not, I will speak my warnings."
"As for your attitude, it has little impact on me. Once you leave the Flowing Sand River and step into the outside world, you will realize how insignificant you are. Only by participating in the Journey to the West and vying for the Blessing of the Catastrophe can you have a bright future."
Sha Chen couldn't help but said, "Zhao Xuantan, although you are an old senior, it is not your turn to dictate my future."
"I think staying here will give me a brighter future. If you think that's wrong, have you considered that if I accept my fate and leave the water to go to the West to obtain the scriptures, I can make faster progress than if I stay here?"
Zhao Gongming originally wanted to get angry, but what Shachen said was not wrong.
It is true that staying here will make Shachen progress faster, and it is incredible enough that Shachen can be promoted from a true immortal to his current level in just four hundred years.
Based on Zhao Gongming's understanding of the catastrophe in Journey to the West, even if Shachen was involved in it, his fate would be no more than that of an Arhat or Bodhisattva.
In the past, he might not even be able to reach the level of Golden Immortal, let alone Quasi-Sage.
That was after participating in the Journey to the West catastrophe and gaining many benefits.
But even before he even joined, Shachen has already advanced to such a level. Is the entire journey to the West still necessary for Shachen?
If there are still dangers, can it still serve as a training ground?
The answer is obvious.
but.
Zhao Gongming didn't care about anything else. It was his mission and his goal to get the sand dust away from the Liusha River.
Going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures was a deal between him and the Heavenly Court and Buddhism, so Shachen had to leave no matter what.
Therefore.
Zhao Gongming said, "It's true that you can grow if you stay here, but your limitations are still significant. The Journey to the West catastrophe is a catastrophe that will benefit Buddhism and even the world. If you successfully enter the game, you will surely benefit immensely."
"The benefit you can get by staying here is 10%, and it is obvious and will definitely be yours. However, if you go to the West to obtain the scriptures, you can also get 90% of the benefits, which is extra for you."
Zhao Gongming smiled and said, "In other words, there are many benefits to staying in the Flowing Sand River, and you will definitely gain them. However, if you go to the West to obtain the scriptures, there will be even more benefits, and you can also gain all the benefits of the Flowing Sand River at the same time. Isn't that wonderful?"
A dusty shadow appeared in front of the cave entrance and looked at Zhao Gongming.
This shocked Zhao Gongming. It was the first time he saw Shachen's appearance. He looked so powerful that he was truly a fierce man.
but.
Seeing the dust, he felt much more relieved.
Because he felt that if Shachen might see him, it would prove his words and move Shachen.
A shadowy figure emerged from the dust, looking down at Zhao Gongming with a mocking expression. He said, "Zhao Xuantan, do you think you can fool me with such nonsense?"
"If we leave the Flowing Sand River, you'll probably be the first one to take me down. Even if you don't, there will be plenty of people who want to take me down."
Zhao Gongming's face turned ugly. Sha Chen's words showed no respect for him at all.
But it’s not wrong.
There are simply too many people to deal with Shachen, and his secret is just too tempting.
Zhao Gongming said, "You have misunderstood me. I can swear an oath that if you leave the Flowing Sand River, I will never make things difficult for you."
Shachen sneered, "Your oath is completely useless to me. Besides, can you manage yourself or others?"
Zhao Gongming's expression gradually darkened. He asked, "What do you want in exchange for leaving the Flowing Sand River and participating in the Journey to the West catastrophe?"
Shachen said: "It's not impossible, unless..."
Zhao Gongming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shachen give in, but at the same time he sneered in his heart.
As expected, nothing is absolute, there are only interests that cannot be negotiated.
As long as we can reach an agreement, everything will be easy.
He then asked, "Unless what?"
Shachen continued, "Unless you kill all those who are stronger than me, then I will feel safe and can leave the water to go to the West to obtain the scriptures. Not to mention the West, even the East will be no problem."
