Li Yi was stunned for a moment, then counted with his fingers.
Zhao Si was not affected by external things. If he was affected by someone, he would know it immediately. It was a common but extremely dangerous disaster that all cultivators would encounter.
The inner demon calamity.
There are two kinds of calamities for mortals in their practice: one is the inner demon, and the other is the heavenly calamity. Everyone in the world is afraid of the former, but the latter is often the cause of the most murders.
The inner demon is invisible and strikes directly at one's heart, and there is no way to resist it with magic or spells.
And Zhao Si is no exception. With his character, there is a high probability that he will fall into the calamity of inner demons, or it can be said that he will definitely fall into the calamity of inner demons.
"Why?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and then the voice sounded a little tired, and as if the person was drunk and dazed.
"I'm tired. I want to get married and don't plan to be a monk anymore. She has been waiting for me for twenty years. Although I gave her all kinds of elixirs from the company to keep her young and beautiful, she told me that she doesn't want to be young and beautiful. She has been waiting for me for so many years. I may not be able to see her in two months, or even send her a message."
"She said we should either get married and live together, or break up. Career and love, damn, I didn't expect that TV dramas don't lie. I encountered such a fucked-up situation."
It was a very old-fashioned but reasonable answer. Others would think that Zhao Si was hysterical. As for a mortal, when comparing himself with a cultivator, most people would choose the latter. Moreover, Zhao Si was rated as a representative of outstanding cultivators in the country.
If you continue to practice, you will definitely become rich and powerful in the future.
If we know more about Zhao Si's background, we can basically be sure that he will be one of the top powers of the future Shenzhou cultivators. There are thousands of capable people in the world, but only a handful of them have connections with immortals.
Even before Zhao Si grew up, he had already received invitations and promises from various parties, and some sects were willing to nominate him as their leader.
Giving up on practice is essentially equivalent to giving up the opportunity to reach the top.
But Li Yi was not surprised. Many times, one cannot have both spiritual practice and family. Zhao Si's attitude towards relationships was similar to his own.
They are all romantic.
Zhao Si has a family and a fiancée, and they are all mortals who cannot practice cultivation. Li Yi can extend their lifespan, but it only increases their lifespan a little bit, and there is no way to make them cross the boundary between cultivators and mortals.
A monk's retreat could last for several months, which was nothing for a monk's long lifespan, but for humans, a few months was too long. Especially for lovers, this was no less than a long-distance relationship, and it lasted for more than ten years.
Zhao Si entered the practice under his own guidance at the age of 28, and now, nearly 10 years later, he is already 38 years old. In other words, his fiancée spent the best years of her life with him.
Li Yi asked: "So you plan to give up your practice? Give your brother and sister-in-law a home?"
Zhao Si said: "Yes, I am now in the foundation building stage, so I should still be able to have children."
"Give up just like that?" Li Yi asked again. "After 10 years of hard work, you are only one step away from the Golden Core, or even the Nascent Soul, or even the Divine Transformation. You should know that for most people, the difference between success and failure in cultivation is often just a matter of opportunity, which may be a few years, or it may be a step earlier in the cultivation process."
"A 30-year-old Jindan would have been a peerless genius in his previous life. This is also a gift from the times to pioneers like you. If you keep holding on now, you will definitely reach the Nascent Soul stage."
The government often misjudged the power of the reincarnated. The biggest mistake was to use the local genius to measure the strong who had already climbed to the top. At the level of transformation, talent is important, but more importantly, it is one's own understanding.
A truly strong person needs to go through hardships and has the right time, place and people. This cannot be mass-produced.
But the government was not wrong on one point.
That is, those who can practice cultivation nowadays are basically geniuses among geniuses. And because of the times, the great way is revealed, and everyone's practice speed is very fast.
You have to know that in her previous life, Dong Yunshu was 25 years old and was called a rare genius, and eventually became a peerless swordsman. Now after reincarnation, she has the potential to become a Saint King, and the top one.
Zhao Si was only 5 years younger than him, which didn't mean that their talents were similar. It was just that this era was very suitable for cultivation, and missing out on it could be a lifelong regret.
“…”
The other end of the phone fell silent again.
Zhao Si’s entanglement and pain seemed to emanate from the electromagnetic waves.
This is a life span of thousands of years, and the power to move mountains and fill the sea. Yuanying is not the most powerful, but it is also a god to mortals.
Li Yi asked again: "Is it worth it for a woman?"
"I will continue to help you in the future, but I am not omnipotent. I can only help you reach the Nascent Soul stage. What you are about to give up now may be an opportunity to enter the Dao."
These words were like a sharp bayonet, piercing deeply into Zhao Si's heart, and seemed to release the demon of desire.
And this is the fate that Zhao Si needs to face.
Li Yi knew that doing so would make Zhao Si even more entangled and painful, but some things had to be laid out in the open and made clear.
Otherwise, it would be "He, Zhao Si, sacrificed himself for his fiancée. He should have become a great monk and lived a wonderful life. However, for the sake of the daily necessities of life, for you, I sacrificed myself."
If Zhao Si felt any regret for his actions today, his Dao heart would be severely damaged. Even if Li Yi used a magic elixir to let Zhao Si practice again, it would be difficult to make up for the damage caused by this inner demon.
Both sides remained silent for a stick of incense. Li Yi was not in a hurry. He was very patient with Zhao Si.
Wei Xi came over with a plate of spiritual fruits. Sensing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, she walked lightly to Li Yi's side.
She did not ask any questions, but just silently skinned and fed the other person. Her movements were gentle, and she no longer had the murderous aura she had on the battlefield. She was like an ordinary, virtuous wife.
