Chapter 496: Bewitching
Lu Zhidong did not speak, and the light in the picture was too dim to make out her expression.
Then, the voice became much deeper, as if full of temptation: "Don't you want to know why those great gods from ancient times disappeared? Where do you think the skills and techniques I taught you came from?
"They seized the destiny of heaven and earth, and thought they controlled the way of heaven, and could arbitrarily judge all the lives in this world. How arrogant they are!
"Until they realized that no matter how hard they tried, this world would inevitably die, so they all escaped from here, imprisoning souls like you and me in Guixu...
“Why?!”
The owner of the voice seemed very angry, and almost shouted, "Now that they have escaped from the cage, are they going to block our way?!"
He Zhidong tilted his head and asked, "How do I know whether what you said is true or false?"
"If you really didn't believe it, you wouldn't have asked this question, right?
"Have you ever heard of the gods nurtured by heaven and earth in ancient times experiencing thunder tribulations and great tribulations?
"Have they ever been bound by any 'heavenly law'?!"
The questioning voice echoed in the picture, resounded in the square, and entered the hearts of all the great monsters watching.
That’s right, in the ancient times, there was no such thing as thunder tribulations or great tribulations for the gods nurtured by heaven and earth!
Even some great demons who have lived long enough and have some memories of the ancient times know clearly that many gods nurtured by the heavens and the earth at that time had no morals or concepts of good and evil. The demons they ate were probably more than the number of demon cultivators in Duguang Country now! If we really talk about it, their crimes are probably too numerous to list!
However, everyone has always attributed all of this to the gods nurtured by heaven and earth being "special" and "superior" beings, and has not thought deeply about the reasons behind it. Therefore, the content of what this voice said was really disturbing to everyone.
Could it be that the so-called heavenly calamity today is really a legacy left by the gods of ancient times?
"Heaven's Way" is also something they left behind on purpose?
even……
Did they really abandon Guixu Realm and run away?
The Winter of the Dragon in the picture was silent for a long time before he said coldly, "You don't have to be so deceiving. I don't care what your purpose is. You teach me the skills and I help you make a puppet. We are even now! Since you can control the puppet's body to walk, then we can go our separate ways and there is no need to contact each other anymore!"
"etc!"
The white eyeball suddenly disappeared, and then an "iron man" several meters tall walked out of the darkness.
His body was a cold black, his face had no facial features, only a single white eye without a pupil embedded in his chest.
The white eyes stared straight at Lu Zhidong: "Don't you want to know how to become a god?"
Lu Zhidong, who was about to leave, paused, obviously quite moved.
"I can tell you how to cultivate an immortal body first. I know the rules set by those idiots very well!"
said the Iron Man.
Lu Zhidong calmly asked back: "What's the price?"
"No, no, no, no... Don't get me wrong. Like you said, you helped me refine the puppet. Now that I can walk in the Guixu Realm, I don't need you to do anything anymore. The method I told you is just a small token of my appreciation."
The eyes on the "Iron Man's" chest curved into a crescent shape, as if he was smiling.
Then, he said, "It's very simple. The rules they left behind are just for the pursuit of 'protection'. How ridiculous! They try to make everyone go against their nature and sacrifice themselves for 'protection', whether it's monsters, humans, or other creatures. Of course, if you conscientiously protect scattered monsters or humans, it's too slow. You can use a faster way... You have to know that the rules of 'Heaven' are a little trick they set. As long as you take a slight detour, you can easily avoid its detection and perception.
"For example, if you allow one party to oppress and enslave the other until the catastrophe is born, you can intervene and uphold justice between heaven and earth - what a great image! Heaven will definitely approve of your behavior! With such merit, you will no longer have to worry about any heavenly tribulation or divine thunder, and becoming an immortal will be a natural thing!
"Of course, you don't have to feel guilty, this is how the world is.
"The strong prey on the weak, and the strong are respected. If one side is strong, the other side will inevitably be oppressed and enslaved. This is the nature of creatures born from moisture and eggs!
"You just don't interfere in the mundane affairs of the world. Since you don't interfere, no crime can be committed by you. The 'Way of Heaven' is so ridiculous. You pass by ugly places, or even watch from the sidelines, but you just don't interfere. You are still clean and noble...
"Look, isn't this perfect?"
He Zhidong said coldly: "Demon cultivators will never interfere in the affairs of the human race!"
She didn't even realize it, but her tone sounded more like she was trying to convince herself.
The "Iron Man" bewitched him, "Right, right, that's it! You are a demon cultivator, and it's normal for you to protect a few demon cultivators out of kindness! And you don't need their offerings and incense - those things will tie other people's karma to yourself! You just need to let some demon cultivators gather together to survive and practice. As for whether those demon cultivators eat people or enslave other demon cultivators, what does it have to do with you?"
He Zhidong softened completely. She turned her face and at some point, her eyes turned pure white - even her eyeballs turned white!
She murmured, "You're right. It has nothing to do with me."
The scenes in the picture gradually changed. Sometimes, it was Lu Zhidong who rescued the demon cultivators in the wild, and sometimes, she refined some magic weapons that could serve as shelter and gave them to those demon cultivators.
Sometimes, she would throw some unusual sacrifices or blood food inheritances she obtained from the Forgotten Mansion and the Secret Realm to the demon cultivators she rescued, and just casually asked them to destroy them, without verifying whether those demon cultivators had really destroyed them...
At this point, anyone could see what she was thinking.
"well……"
A faint sigh sounded from the clouds, and a large bird with dark purple feathers descended from the sky. King Du Guang flew lightly in front of the demon cultivators.
"Your Majesty!"
All the monsters bowed their heads guiltily, and no one dared to say anything else except calling him "Your Majesty".
The Heart-Searching Formation was put away by King Du Guang, and Lu Zhidong was lying on the ground shivering. His original form was also a bird.
"General Winter,"
King Du Guang's purple feathers glowed brightly, forming a sharp contrast with the disheveled and miserable Lu Zhidong.
She said calmly, "You knew that what this thing said was three-tenths true and seven-tenths false, but you still used those methods and refused to ask me... Should I say you are as timid as a mouse, or as bold as a whim?"
