"... For me, everything was a few years ago."

After Zhou Buyi withdrew his hand, Su Zhou raised his head and looked at each other up and down for a moment, and then slowly said: "On that day, before the sacred tree withered and fallen leaves, the Three Sages and the Great Masters of the Hundred Schools made an oath at Nanjing Tianguan, never To use its power, to use human power to open a real peace and prosperity. And I remember, you are among them."

　　 "Indeed." Zhou Buyi nodded slowly, showing nostalgia: "Everyone was still alive at that time... and now, I haven't changed my mind."

He stretched out his hand, and an invisible inner air swept around, accompanied by successive "clicks". The windows and walls surrounding the office turned over with the mechanism, revealing the mirror on the back of the office. Soon, bursts of aura fluctuated. Flashing past, the mirror began to reflect the ghost images of all parts of the world.

　　 That is a huge city, towering buildings. It can be seen from this that a huge industrial city located in the Northeast region, located in the South China Sea, a floating city on the sea swimming along the pulse of the spirit, Su Zhou glanced at it, and he could see that huge sky fortresses and flying fortresses were being built along the coast of the New World.

　　The place where the old Shenmu was located has now become a huge metropolitan area. The third new Nantianjing is the economic and political center of the eastern region of the Tianzheng Alliance. Although the towering skyscrapers are not comparable to Shenmu, they are already towering enough.

"I did it all." The man said, and he proudly showed his achievements to Su Zhou: "I unite the Hundred Families Alliance, which is on the verge of splitting because of the death of the older generation of leaders; I cultivated and cultivated and became the first in the alliance. Baby boom; I led a new generation of people to lay the foundation of the Tianzheng Alliance. I expanded the territory of Tianzheng to five times that of the former An Dynasty. Those who were about to collapse in the past, have become this with our efforts. The most powerful country in the world, the most powerful civilized individual."

　　 "This is everyone, even the first three saints have never thought of a great cause. I have led them step by step to the present and now. I am worthy of everyone."

　　 At this time, Shao Qiming on the side stared at the two people who were still in a normal conversation despite the confrontation.

　　 From Zhou Buyi's body, he vaguely saw the look similar to Su Zhou before.

　　 If you say that the previous Su Zhou wanted to show off to his friend, that the world he had helped with has become so peaceful.

　　 Then, the current week is not easy, just to show off to Su Zhou, a former comrade-in-arms, that he has built the world they have fought together into such a prosperous appearance.

For a hundred years, all the people familiar with it have already left, even if they have established the supreme achievements, there is nowhere to tell. After finally waiting for an old friend, then, even if you practice the power that you shouldn’t get involved, you know that the other party hates evil like hatred. , The character that is likely to turn his face because of this, but still can't help but pick it up as fast as possible...

　　 "Two young guys who like to show off..."

Shao Qiming murmured in his heart, and Shao Qiming thought distressedly: "We will definitely fight later, should I go out and hide a little bit now? But the commander-level battle video is so precious, and Zhou Buyi also happened to be Xiu. Wood..."

　　 "This is really amazing."

After looking at all the images in the mirror, Su Zhou earnestly applauded and exclaimed: "I will definitely not be able to change it. For example, if the Hundred Family Alliance is to be split, in my mode of thinking, it must be killed. So far... but in fact, I am not so cruel to kill innocent people. I am afraid that after a while, I will let it go."

　　 "...Don't be too self-effacing. If you want to, you can definitely do it, but if you don't want to, you won't do it."

　　 Zhou is not easy to lower his eyes, his tone calms back: "And I won't. Even if I don't want to, I will do it if necessary."

　　 "So, the power of the sacred tree is necessary?"

　　 Despite this questioning, Su Zhou himself actually knew very well that the power of the sacred tree was not an evil power. On the contrary, it was the right way, or the right way, which can nourish the world and create all things.

　　 The Devil Emperor is a way of raising one person by all living beings, and it is a way of thinking that only an independent husband can think of, and it cannot be regarded as a normal method of using the power of the sacred tree.

　　 As long as the power is used well, it will never be a bad thing, and Su Zhou never intended to accuse Zhou Buyi of practicing the power of the sacred tree.

However, in a place where the power of the sacred tree has been used to eat people and almost caused a disaster that is close to the end of the world, a person who experienced the calamity once again used the power of the sacred tree... this meaning, and no such experience. People who practice the power of the sacred tree have different meanings.

　　 Especially just now, when Su Zhou used the fire of sin karma to try to provoke Zhou Buyi's bad karma, he sensed that the other party did indeed have considerable sin karma.

　　 Good and evil cannot be eliminated, and the fire of sin will not burn because the other party has been good.

　　 But in the same way, Wuli will not protect the other party because it is evil.

　　 So Su Zhou directly pointed out the most important question: "Zhou is not easy, besides you in this world, who else is in the realm of'Tiangang Martial God'?"

"……only me."

The man frowned slightly, and then told the truth: "Except for me, they have not discovered the truth about the change of the vitality of the heavens and the earth. They still think that the vitality of the heavens and the earth is not recovering enough, and I am a special case... But in fact, the vitality of the heavens and the earth is long enough to make people Practicing to the realm of Tiangang, but because the power of the sacred tree has penetrated the world, the entire planet has been subtly converted into an ecology subordinate to the sacred tree...only wood and its derivatives are allowed."

"Wood can transform thunder, wind, and develop Yang Qi. Only these roads can smoothly advance to the innate. If you want to advance to the Heavenly Gang Martial God, you should either seek the power of the divine tree, change your physique, or try like me. Instead, I came up with a completely pure wood technique, and I'm doing it."

"Of course, before this, there was only you in the Heavenly Gang Realm-and you have the power of the sacred tree, so in this world, almost all the innate martial arts, or members of the immortal sect, in front of you, are all native chickens. Wah Dog."

Su Zhou nodded slightly, and Zhou Buyi acquiesced: "Even if I want to give up power, I can't let it go. If my strength cannot overwhelm everyone, then as long as I retreat from the position of chairman of the alliance, it will cause disputes... Not everyone wants to be chairman, some people want to be emperor, or crack the earth to become a king."

The Tianzheng Alliance seems to be singing and dancing, but in fact, in this world with extraordinary power, such an equal world, a world where ordinary people are not humble or overbearing to martial artists, and to those who hold power, it is fundamentally a little bit. It's not'happy' either.

　　 is easy to understand, if it weren't for Zhou Buyi's constant suppression, this kind of order, even if only part of the warriors were dissatisfied, could be said to be precarious.

"Only when I stand in a high position and bow my head is meaningful. Only when I have the strength to surpass everyone and take the initiative to retreat from the chairmanship, can I lead by example, maintain this system and make it order-and I can continue to act The director of the Bureau of Conquering the Devil, suppresses all the turmoil in this world, makes the world unsatisfied, and eternal peace."

　　 This is what he thinks, and he has done the same for more than a hundred years.

Zhou Buyi did not advertise his findings, but blocked it after advancing to the Celestial Realm, and even distorted the research direction of the relevant scope-Su Zhou understood this approach, after all, if the world has more than one Celestial Realm In the case of Tiangang Realm, that is, the strength of the terrifying leader, it is easy to go out and become an independent kingdom and become an emperor by yourself. Even if Zhou Buyi is the strongest warrior, it is impossible to maintain order while maintaining order. Suppress other Tiangang realms.

He must delay the growth rate of personal force in this world in order to stabilize the order. Moreover, in order to avoid having a genius in the future to advance to Tiangang, and to create a second heart, Zhou Buyi is the first to practice the power of the gods to ensure that he has possession of the world. The warriors have absolute suppressing power.

　　——What's wrong with this? The pursuit of immortality is not wrong, nor is it wrong to practice the power of sacred trees for peace in the world. Even if it is a dictatorship as the emperor, this should not be a crime.

　　 But Su Zhou knew very well, after he had become the king of the sacred tree of the Banyan Immortal Tree, and asked the other party to no longer split his power, what price would he need to obtain the power of the sacred tree.

　　 Previously, Zhou Buyi refused Su Zhou to let him help eradicate the "Undead Order", which also proved Su Zhou's conjecture.

　　 "You are the power of the sacred tree extracted from the remnants of the demons of the Immortal Sect."

Su Zhou was straightforward: "There are the remnants of the evil dynasty and the separatists, and there are enemies in Tianzheng. You will not start to focus on internal struggles, but you will attack both sides from time to time, harvesting strength and prestige from it, and assisting your own practice...This In fact, it is to support the bandits and respect themselves. Such indulgence is actually the same as doing evil. Those who die because of the Immortal Sect are actually equivalent to dying at your hands."

"you can say so."

Zhou Buyi happily admitted: "I indulge them in remote areas, attacking local government forces that are not subject to discipline, and when it is about time, I will send official troops to station, so that we can reap power and regain those areas where people are not aligned. As for the separatists, they are a banner. With their existence, Tianzheng's internal resistance forces will move closer to them. Is it possible to strike a blow, which can effectively reduce the crime rate in normal areas and reduce the factors of instability."

　　 "Of course, a country can always find something more important than completely eliminating these two organizations. I am not deliberately indulging, but I always make other choices."

"In fact, the undead cult is the same. There is a legend of the sacred tree, there will always be people who will pursue immortality, history is here, this is an unavoidable thing... and I have the power of the sacred tree, no matter how they explore this path, In the end, they will only be delivered to me by themselves...Even in the future, those monsters will grow to the point where they can't be suppressed after the devil's game, but as long as I take action, they can be wiped out."

　　 Su Zhou, the man who was serious observers talking in front of him, his eyes were like a torch, he could clearly see which words of the other party were sincere, which words were disguised, and were concealed.

　　 Then, he sighed.

"It’s not easy for a week. You are just like holding the world and civilization in your palm and taking care of it. You don’t believe in anyone and let all the pressure be carried by yourself...one person wipes the **** for the entire civilization and sorts out the mess, isn’t it? Aren't you tired?"

Having said that, Su Zhou couldn't help but laughed at himself: "But the funny thing is that I understand you very well-because if I were to be me, I would definitely want to do the same thing. I can't even do it. It’s perfect like you...I don’t care if I’m naive, I really can’t do it like you. I will raise the undead cult and the separatists as a gathering place for evil, and I will definitely kill them all at the first time."

　　 "This is not naive, but you don't like compromise."

　　 Zhou is not easy to whisper: "You are such a person, you are indeed such a person. So at the beginning, we all yearned for you."

　　 "But those above are not your real reasons."

　　 But at this time, Su Zhou's conversation turned, and he, who had already used a heart of non-thinking, could listen to Zhou Buyi's heart. Those reasons are enough to persuade anyone, but they cannot convince him: "Compared with those reasonable and reasonable words, your initial phrase'I want to be immortal' is more convincing."

　　——Ah, is it going to start. Hearing this, Shao Qiming had taken out the anti-impact capsule and was ready to hide from the high-strength anti-impact airbag at any time. His heart suddenly tightened. He could sense that between the two who were originally calm, suddenly aura fluctuated and surged.

But soon, the wave of waves calmed down again. Zhou Buyi frowned slightly. He hasn't tested the strength of Su Zhou until now. Although the opponent looks like himself, they are only in the Celestial Realm, but they are as deep as before. Unpredictable.

　　 However, this is normal...that is Su Zhou, in the state of the peak of the sky in the past, even the people of the demon emperor of the country slayer, even if they are the power of the sacred tree, they may not be able to beat the opponent.

"There was originally more than one reason. The peace of this world really needs me to maintain. I don't get the power of the sacred tree. There will always be people who will practice. If there is order, there will naturally be people who resist the order. I set up a target to let them It is necessary to gather together to facilitate encirclement and suppression."

It was not self-discrimination. Zhou Buyi simply expounded the facts. After the words, he bowed his head and remained silent for a while, then slowly raised his head and said, "Of course, as you said, my most essential reason is still to want to be immortal. Because I want to be immortal, I will do the following things."

　　 "Why?"

Su Zhou asked briefly: "You are not greedy for power, and you are not like the type of person who can do everything for longevity. The natural life span of the Tiangang Martial God is at least a few hundred thousand years. There is no problem. If you want to live, you have time Find a better way. In other words, for at least five hundred years, I don’t think you have any reason to pursue immortality."

　　 It’s not easy for Zhou to answer this question at the first time. He just asked a rhetorical question: "Su Zhou, do you still remember, what was the last thing my dead companion said before he left?"

　　 Su Zhou was taken aback for a moment. He wanted to directly reply that none of his companions died, but the essence of this statement was wrong. Friends of the Shenmu world, Su Zhou was not there when they died.

　　 So he was silent, and Zhou Buyi smiled, his expression calmly: "Many people will forget, this is the case on the battlefield."

"But I do. I remember the last words of everyone else on their deathbeds—whether it was a master, a comrade-in-arms, a friend, a wife, or my eldest son, eldest daughter, second daughter... the message each of them said to me when they died , I remember."

"Now this world ~lightnovelpub.net~ is the only thing I remember-no matter why the hundred schools fought in the first place, why they must reopen peace, why they must fight against the demons, the history of suffering, the shouts in the dark and Fight, the only person left from that era is me."

"If there is only me and only me, then death is nothing more than reunion with them. But I can't live just for myself. There must be someone who remembers those words and remembers those beliefs... Later people will Forget, faith will be worn away, will be rewritten, will be revised, just like the allusion you told me at the beginning, yes, the dragon slayer will become a dragon, and faith will deteriorate, but the fact is, if I let everything go , This world will still repeat the historical law of'to be divided for a long time, and for a long time to be combined'-the rate of degeneration of beliefs will be ten times faster than the rate at which I degenerate.

　　 The first person preached to the second person, the meaning of the words may not change, but if it reaches the tenth person, the hundredth person, then it may not be necessary. Even the essence of words may be completely rewritten to look completely different from the original.

　　 Men cannot accept such things. The first person could not tolerate the fruits of victory gained by paying the lives of all the people around him, so he was tampered with by the less cherished latecomers, so he would rather not pass this word on, but stick to the place by himself.

In this way, Zhou Buyi’s tone was repeated once again: "I must not allow the peace that we have created with almost all of our lives. After hundreds of years of time scouring, it will deteriorate, split, and just fall apart like this. !"

　　 "It must exist, and I will guard it-forever!"
