Chapter 323: Destiny, Alien Starry Sky
Jiang Caiyun sensed Cui Heng's presence long before his aura burst out of the cave world.
However, she felt unbelievable at the time.
In her cognition, Cui Changsheng was already dead, and she buried him with her own hands. This friend who she valued so much in her heart was no longer there.
But the aura was very similar.
Until Cui Heng appeared, she looked at the figure in the sky and became even more confused.
Cui Changsheng and Cui Heng look different.
When Cui Heng changed his identity to understand the rules of order, his appearance and temperament naturally changed, but because Cui Changsheng was the identity he was going to use to end it, he was similar to himself in many ways.
Therefore, after seeing Cui Heng, Jiang Caiyun actually felt like a friend had come back to life.
But Cui Changsheng was only a congenital being before his death, so how could he be such a powerful supreme being?
She couldn't understand this situation.
Now, Cui Heng appeared directly in front of her.
At this time, she finally believed that the supreme being in front of her was clearly the best friend she had buried with her own hands.
For a moment, Jiang Caiyun's heart became extremely complicated.
Cui Heng stood here, looking at Jiang Caiyun with a gentle gaze, and smiled: "How are you?"
"..." Jiang Caiyun fell silent after hearing this. She stared at Cui Heng quietly for a long time without saying anything. After a long while, she sighed and said, "What is Cui Changsheng?"
"Cui Changsheng is me." Cui Heng nodded slightly, then shook his head gently, "But I am not Cui Changsheng."
Cui Changsheng is a part of his cultivation process, so the identity of Cui Changsheng is a part of his expression, but Cui Heng himself cannot be equal to Cui Changsheng.
This is the difference between the part and the whole.
"Did you deliberately let Cui Changsheng stop cultivating and eventually die of exhaustion?" Jiang Caiyun asked.
“No.” Cui Heng shook his head and said, “Cui Changsheng’s identity had no intention of breaking through the twelfth realm of the mortal world from the beginning. The ending of this identity was determined from the beginning.”
“…” Jiang Caiyun fell into a long silence again. She closed her eyes gently, as if calming herself down, and said slowly, “Is this the way of cultivation to a higher realm?”
“No, it’s the way of cultivation that I figured out myself.” Cui Heng shook his head. His way of cultivation was very different from the way of cultivation to a higher realm in this world.
"Won't you lose yourself in the different identities this way?" Jiang Caiyun frowned and asked, "Do you sometimes not know whether you are Cui Changsheng or your original self?"
"No." Cui Heng shook his head and chuckled, "After your soul is perfect, there will be no confusion about self-cognition. After you cultivate the Tao seed, you will naturally understand it."
To refine the Tao seed is to become a Golden Immortal.
"...I understand." Jiang Caiyun's brows suddenly relaxed, and she bowed respectfully to Cui Heng, smiling very gently, "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
"Oh?" This time it was Cui Heng who was stunned. He looked at Jiang Caiyun briefly, nodded and smiled, "That's the best.
Jiang Caiyun's sudden change in attitude surprised him.
He was even ready to explain the concept of practice so as to enlighten Jiang Caiyun.
As Cui Changsheng, he was very clear about the relationship between the two.
Although there was no love between men and women, they were close friends who accompanied each other in the martial arts world.
After Cui Changsheng passed away, Jiang Caiyun stood in front of the tomb for a full month before leaving.
Such emotions are far from being let go of in just a few words.
Unexpectedly, she had figured it out herself.
"However, I have a doubt I would like to ask you, senior. "Jiang Caiyun suddenly said.
"Please speak." Cui Heng nodded slightly.
"Thank you, senior, it's like this..." Jiang Caiyun bowed respectfully and said in a deep voice, "Actually, at the beginning, my heart was full of confusion and doubts.
"I even wanted to grab your clothes and ask why? Why did you lie, why did you fake your death, were we not close friends before?
" "But when you really stood in front of me and explained to me that he was you and you were not him, and his life was already predestined, I suddenly understood.
"My best friend Cui Changsheng, he is dead after all. He followed the destiny that he was supposed to follow, went through the process of birth, aging, sickness and death, and completed his mission.
"I have buried him with my own hands, putting a perfect end to his life. From that time on, there was no Cui Changsheng in the world anymore, and he only lived in my memory.
"But, this also gave rise to a doubt in my heart. Since Cui Changsheng's life was arranged, is it possible that everything about you and me has also been arranged long ago?
"Is there a mysterious will of heaven that plucks invisible strings and controls the destiny of all living things? My realm is low, and I cannot understand it. I hope the seniors can solve my doubts. ”
“God’s will, destiny…” Cui Heng’s eyes became silent and he fell into deep thought. He suddenly looked up, and then looked at Jiang Caiyun in front of him.
After a while, he shook his head and said frankly, “God’s will has been difficult to understand since ancient times, and I can’t figure it out.”
Even for Cui Heng, who has already broken through to the realm of transformation, God’s will and destiny are still things that exist only in concepts and are full of unknowns.
There is no way to comprehend or understand them.
“God’s will has been difficult to understand since ancient times.” Jiang Caiyun murmured, with a gleam in his eyes, as if he was a little confused, “Then as long as we practice hard, we will have the hope of touching God’s will and completely controlling our own destiny?”
“I think this is inevitable.” Cui Heng nodded lightly and smiled, “Controlling your own destiny, this is one of the purposes of practice.”
“Thank you, senior! "Jiang Caiyun's beautiful face was filled with a smile, bright and unusual, "In this case, I will practice diligently to seek to see the destiny."
"What a good ambition." Cui Heng nodded in praise, turned his hand and condensed a jade talisman, and said to Jiang Caiyun, "This is a life-saving jade talisman, which can protect you from death three times."
"Thank you for your kindness, senior, I don't need this thing." Jiang Caiyun shook his head lightly and smiled, "If I fall on the road of practice, it is only because I am not talented enough or have not practiced enough, and I am not qualified to see the destiny."
"..." Cui Heng was slightly stunned when he heard this, then he dispersed the jade talisman and exclaimed, "It is Cui Changsheng's luck to have a close friend like you."
"Thank you for the compliment, senior." Jiang Caiyun said with a smile, "You are indeed not Cui Changsheng. In fact, being able to be friends with him is also the greatest luck in my life. Thank you for letting Cui Changsheng be born."
"Your mind can be called extraordinary and holy." Cui Heng looked at Jiang Caiyun with admiration and nodded, "I'm waiting for the day when you can see the destiny."
"Please look forward to it, senior." Jiang Caiyun said solemnly.
...
The communication with Jiang Caiyun was enough to be a pleasant surprise for Cui Heng.
When he was Cui Changsheng, he actually communicated with Jiang Caiyun about cultivation.
However, at that time, they were still at the mortal level, and they did not involve any high-level topics.
Moreover, before Cui Heng changed his identity, he would prepare some basic personal information as the code of conduct for this identity. With Cui Changsheng's identity, it was unlikely that he would discuss overly profound topics.
Therefore, Jiang Caiyun's unique cognition and thinking had never been revealed.
But after this conversation, Cui Heng was pleasantly surprised to find that Jiang Caiyun was really a natural seed of seeking the truth, and was simply born to explore a higher realm.
If it weren't for Cui Changsheng's identity, he would have wanted to accept Jiang Caiyun as a disciple.
This was the first time he had such an idea after he stepped out of the novice space.
However, with Jiang Caiyun's personality, he might not agree to become his disciple.
This is a woman with a strong self-opinion. She really only wants to follow her own path.
"God's will, destiny, this is indeed a direction full of unknowns, and a road full of ups and downs." Cui Heng murmured as he stood on the sky.
At the same time, he let go of his consciousness and felt the endless starry sky and the countless people affected by his own order and rules.
This overlooking angle gave him a feeling that he could control everything and manipulate everything.
However, he knew very well that this was just an illusion.
He was far from reaching the realm where he could incarnate destiny and control everything.
But this inevitably gave him some associations.
"Does God really exist in the dark, looking down on everything from above? If you want to reach this level, what kind of realm do you need?
"Do you need to make a few more steps in the realm of transformation, or do you need to return to the void, or even merge with the Tao? In the heaven that once ruled all the heavens and the worlds, did a strong man with a similar realm exist?
"If there is no heaven, then does it exist in the vast universe?"
Cui Heng's mind flashed one after another. Doubts and speculations.
At the same time, he once again clearly realized that even if he had broken through to the level of transformation, he was still very small in the vast universe.
In fact, from the special perspective of the transformation period, he could vaguely sense that the star field he was in should be on a cantilever of a huge galaxy.
Even if his body was large enough to control the entire cantilever, it was only a small part of this huge galaxy.
Even if you can control the entire giant galaxy, it is still insignificant.
Take the Milky Way as an example. This giant galaxy with a diameter of 100,000 light years is only one-fiftieth of a larger galaxy cluster.
The coverage area of a galaxy cluster is as high as 10 million light years in diameter.
A galaxy cluster of 10 million light years is only a small part of a supercluster with a diameter of 100 million light years.
And this supercluster with a diameter of 100 million light years is just a speck of dust in the vast universe.
If there really is a so-called "destiny" that controls everything, it means that this vast and endless universe can be controlled.
What kind of realm and power will that be? It is beyond the imagination of Cui Heng now.
"The road is long and arduous!"
Cui Heng shook his head and chuckled, and then his figure flashed back to the Great Zhou Imperial City. He planned to meet Fang He and Yuan Ku first.
...
In the Great Zhou Imperial City.
Fang He and Yuan Ku were waiting anxiously.
The two high and mighty Lords of Heaven were a little restless at this time, walking back and forth.
Accompanying them here was Hui Shi.
Seeing the two people so uneasy, he couldn't help but comfort them: "You two don't have to be like this. If the master wanted to kill you, he would have killed you long ago, and would not have waited until now."
Fang He and Yuan Ku were stunned when they heard this, and the anxiety on their faces became even stronger.
"Haha, Huishi, you still don't know how to talk." Cui Heng's laughter came from the sky, and then he appeared here, saying to Huishi, "You can get along with Liu Litao more in the future."
"Master knows me." Huishi smiled, "But I only make knives for you. Generally speaking, knives don't need to talk."
"That's indeed the truth." Cui Heng also smiled, and then looked at the monk and Taoist here.
Fang He and Yuan Ku hurriedly saluted and said in unison: "Greetings to the Immortal!"
"You two can speak directly if you have anything to say." Cui Heng nodded lightly.
"Amitabha, please have mercy on us." Monk Yuanku immediately knelt on the ground and shouted, "Please save this star field."
"Please have mercy on us." Taoist Fanghe also knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "Since the disappearance of the heaven, there has been no Tianguan-level strongman in this star field.
"This has attracted the covetousness of the alien domain. The Tianguan-level strongmen from the alien domain have been waiting for an opportunity to invade and plunder. We can only barely support ourselves with the special characteristics of the Three Heavens. "
And now our lifespan is about to end. I am afraid that we will no longer be able to resist the invasion of the alien domain. Please lend a hand to the Immortal Venerable to resist the Tianguan-level strongmen from the alien domain."
Compared with Monk Yuanku, Taoist Fanghe's words were obviously much clearer.
Alien domain.
This new term caught Cui Heng's attention, and he frowned and asked, "What is a foreign domain?"
Taoist Fang He hurriedly began to explain, "As the Immortal Venerable knows, the Central Realm that governs all the heavens governs the endless starry sky of all the heavens and myriad worlds, but the scope of the heavens' rule is not unlimited.
"The areas outside the jurisdiction of the heaven are collectively called the foreign domains. There are endless stars in the foreign domains, countless strong people, and even some Tianguan-level existences.
"When the heaven was originally there, the Tianguan-level strong people in the foreign domains often invaded the marginal stars. Later, when the heaven was gone, this situation became more and more serious.
"If it weren't for the fact that Sanshangtian had some characteristics of the heaven, which could make those Tianguan strong people jealous after being activated, I'm afraid it would have been impossible to stop the invasion of the foreign domains."
"What is the purpose of this so-called foreign domain invasion here?" Cui Heng asked.
"It is said that it is for some treasures contained in the heaven, or it may be for plundering the resources of this star field." Taoist Fang He obviously didn't know much, so he could only guess.
"It is said that every breakthrough in the Heavenly Gate level consumes a lot of resources." Monk Yuanku added.
"Is that all?" Cui Heng laughed when he heard this, looked at Taoist Fang He and Monk Yuanku, shook his head and said, "You two are the Lords of Heaven, if that's how you come to ask for help...
"Then please go back first."
