Chapter 882: Two prides from different generations, different choices
Beidou Zhongzhou, within the ancient Kunlun Divine City, is where the core secret place is located.
There is no doubt that this is a supreme holy land for spiritual practice.
Not only is there a flow of heaven and earth source essence that is far richer than the outside world, but more importantly, there are ten thousand laws manifested, which is far more suitable for monks to realize Taoism than the world of mortals.
At infinite heights, the Kunlun Emperor's mirror rises and falls, flowing with the immortal light of the beginning, suppressing the entire secret realm.
And below it, surrounded by the auspicious colors of the divine cloud, three figures stood facing each other.
One of them, the contemporary headmaster of Kunlun, was looking directly at the two stunning figures opposite him with blazing eyes, waiting for their reply.
It has to be said that the conditions offered by Kunlun are extremely attractive.
You must know that throughout the ages, all those who have achieved enlightenment are at least one of the strongest people of that era. They are really looking down at the world, overlooking the changes in the world.
Not to mention that he has been in the universe for tens of thousands of years and must have accumulated countless treasures of heaven and earth. The supreme bloodline alone is enough to rival many of the most powerful physiques in the world, except for the chaotic body and the immortal Tao embryo.
In addition, there are close relatives of the supreme level of the Supreme Dao who baptize and build the foundation of their children, and they have also practiced the Supreme Emperor Sutra and Heavenly Kung Fu since they were young, so they can be called the proud sons of heaven.
Such a being is destined to be a dragon or a phoenix among men, and is definitely not comparable to ordinary monks.
Moreover, the one who can be selected by the Emperor and be born in the golden age when the road to immortality opens is undoubtedly his strongest heir, which is almost equivalent to the reappearance of the Supreme Being in the past.
Even if one travels through the entire human universe, there are absolutely very few people who are confident that they can provide a transcendental force that is not inferior to their cultivation environment.
And Kunlun is undoubtedly one of them.
It is the mother religion of the Beidou human race. It has spanned the ancient times, the ancient times to the present, and has gone through a long period of time. It has stood firm in Beidou for more than two million years. Its accumulation is so profound that even many Ji Dao inheritances cannot match it.
At the same time, Kunlun's position is also quite embarrassing.
As a powerful force, it has imperial soldiers, but does not have the "understanding" to match them. After all, it lacks some confidence.
That's why they were so interested in Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei and were willing to devote all their efforts to training them.
The two have amazing talents, but they do not come from some transcendent family. Their foundations behind them are shallow, so they are undoubtedly the most suitable candidates for Kunlun investment.
Just as Master Kunlun's mind was filled with many thoughts, Gai Jiuyou, who was opposite him, suddenly raised his head.
Seeing the particularly determined look in his eyes, Headmaster Kunlun already had a premonition in his heart.
As expected, Gai Jiuyou said:
"I thank you, senior, for your kindness, but I'm afraid I still have no luck with it."
Hearing this, Headmaster Kunlun nodded, his expression was indifferent, and he even asked curiously:
"I don't know, can you tell me the reason?"
At the same time, Xiang Yufei on the other side also cast a curious look.
Feeling the slightly scorching gazes of the two, Gai Jiuyou's expression remained the same, standing proudly:
"As the senior said before, if you proclaim yourself a descendant, even if you become an emperor by then, it will be difficult to compete for the opportunity to become an immortal. It would be better to——"
After a pause, his eyes were shining with confidence:
"First realize the Tao in this life, practice hard for thousands of years, improve your cultivation, and then compete with them!"
As Gai Jiuyou's words fell, the place fell silent for a moment, and there was no sound.
Good guy!
There was a rather strange expression in the eyes of Master Kunlun.
He never expected that Gai Jiuyou would be so "ignorant" that he would dare to think about the road to becoming an immortal.
However, if you think about it carefully, what Gai Jiuyou said is not unreasonable.
Theoretically speaking, a Supreme Being who has practiced for thousands of years is naturally stronger than someone who has just realized the Dao...
Of course, all of this is based on the person being able to attain enlightenment in this world.
Otherwise, it will be like a mirror, a flower in the mirror, and a bamboo basket in vain.
There is no doubt that Gai Jiuyou himself is confident in this.
His Taoist heart is firm and hard to change.
Thinking of this, Headmaster Kunlun sighed:
"If that's the case, then I wish you fellow Taoist to come to the great road as soon as possible."
Regardless of the outcome, Gai Jiuyou deserves admiration for having such ambitions.
Furthermore, Gai Jiuyou was not the focus of Kunlun's attention. Since he had already refused, they would naturally not force him.
Thinking like this, Kunlun Headmaster Xuan Ji looked at Xiang Yufei aside.
Compared to Gai Jiuyou, Xiang Yufei's expression was particularly struggling, and he seemed to be having trouble making up his mind.
Seeing this, the headmaster of Kunlun said very seriously:
"Xiang Xiaoyou, you are different from Gai Xiaoyou. Can you really wait until the day when you become an emperor?"
Hearing this, Xiang Yufei couldn't help being shocked, and his face instantly turned pale.
"Old Master, tell you what this means?"
Gai Jiuyou's expression was slightly confused and wary, and he looked straight at Master Kunlun.
As if realizing that he might have misunderstood something, Master Kunlun had a look of dumbfounding on his face.
Xiang Yufei on the side raised his hand, stopped Gai Jiuyou's move, and finally sighed:
"Since senior already knows, I won't hide it from you two."
Xiang Yufei's deep eyes were filled with complex and inexplicable expressions, and with a hint of pain, he spoke with difficulty:
"I was born to die young, and I am destined to die at the age of twenty."
Hearing what he said, Gai Jiuyou couldn't help but tremble all over.
Although Xiang Yufei's words were brief, they contained many indescribable complex emotions and were by no means random words.
Therefore, Gai Jiuyou said solemnly:
"Is there any good way to deal with it?"
Xiang Yufei shook his head:
"The medicine and stone have no effect, and there is no way to save the day."
Hearing this, Gai Jiuyou's eyes couldn't help but darken.
Although the two had not known each other for a long time, they were quite compatible, and for a while he felt sad.
Suddenly, Gai Jiuyou seemed to have thought of something, and looked up at Master Kunlun:
"Having claimed to be a god for thousands of years, can you avoid this disaster?"
The latter shook his head without any hesitation:
"This is destiny. There is a way to move in the dark. Even the legendary source of immortality may not necessarily work."
Seeing Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei's gloomy expressions, Master Kunlun changed the topic and said mysteriously:
"However, I, Kunlun, am willing to risk my life just to give my little friend a try."
Before the two of them had a chance to ask, he continued:
"My sect has always been on good terms with the Eastern Wilderness sect—Dushen Dao."
"The sect's heavenly skills are inherited from the mythical deity, and they are good at deductions from the great avenues and divination by the soul."
"If there is anyone in the world who can change my fate against the will of heaven, except for a master of the Shinto Way, there is no one else."
"really!?"
Naturally, Gai Jiuyou and Xiang Yufei also heard about the prestigious reputation of Dushen Dao, the great sect in the Eastern Wilderness.
"As a leader of a sect, how could I deceive you two juniors?"
Headmaster Kunlun shook his head helplessly, then struck while the iron was hot, and continued:
"Not only that, I also heard that there is an immortal Buddha treasure enshrined on Mount Sumeru in the Western Desert, still waiting for the destined person."
"When the time comes, I will go together with my Taoist friends from the Shinto Way. I think I can seek the protection of Buddha treasures from my little friend."
"At that time, a two-pronged approach will surely reverse the dead situation!"
After his words fell, the place fell into silence again.
Gai Jiuyou's eyes flickered, as if he had a clear understanding in his heart.
It seems that the Kunlun Sect has been eyeing Xiang Yufei from early on and has made full preparations.
However, after all, this is a matter of mutual consent and mutual benefit, and it is definitely not a "conspiracy".
In the final analysis, it still depends on Yufei's own wishes.
There was silence for a long time, and finally a long sigh sounded, accompanied by Xiang Yufei's voice of relief:
