Volume 12 is missing Chapter 8: Talking about Heaven
So what was the purpose of his journey of thousands of miles?
This is really a question worth pondering.
Lu Qingshan thought.
"Does the title of Sword Immortal sound too low-class?" Chu Mushen looked at the vast Tianhe Sea and listened to the sound of the sea water hitting the Tianhe city wall, which had remained the same for thousands of years.
Lu Qingshan shook his head.
Chu Mushen glanced at Lu Qingshan in confusion, as if wondering whether he really thought so or was just being polite.
——After all, everyone was very polite to him.
Lu Qingshan praised sincerely: "After all, the ultimate goal of a person's life is to go to the dock and get some French fries later, right?"
Many people regard Chu Mushen as a god and believe that he is omnipotent.
In fact, he never thought so. He knew very well that there were many things he did not understand and could not do.
For example, at this moment, he couldn't understand the joke in Lu Qingshan's words, nor could he understand where Lu Qingshan's heartfelt approval and recognition came from.
Chu Mushen thought about it, but couldn’t figure it out, so he decided not to think about it anymore.
He never worries about things that are not important.
That's why he has always lived a comfortable life.
Chu Mushen continued to narrate:
"Of course, a lot of things have happened in these 20,000 years."
"I came to Tianhe City just to eat fish, so I naturally wouldn't miss this great opportunity. So I started fishing non-stop on the Tianhe Sea and fighting with the demons non-stop."
"As I said before, the more fights I have, the more realms I will reach. If I continue to move forward, one day I will become the Tianhe Sword Immortal."
“Oh, they also gave me the title of Tianhe Sword Immortal.” Chu Mushen said casually.
"After becoming the Tianhe Sword Immortal, I somehow became the patron saint of Tianhe City. I don't have any objection to this. I am a human, and since I have the ability, it is natural for me to protect the human race."
"Thousands of years after he disappeared, I became the strongest among the human race."
"That man's descendants also inherited his will. They supported Tianhe City with all their strength and were very polite to me."
"I don't have much ability. I'm already too busy defending Tianhe City. I don't have much interest in other things."
Chu Mushen looked at the huge Tianhe City, sighed, and said after a moment of silence: "It's a pity that his descendants' descendants don't understand this truth."
"What happened?" Lu Qingshan heard the implication of Chu Mushen's words.
Tianhe Sword Immortal said: "Later they were fighting for that position, it's none of my business, and I don't want to get involved."
"But I don't know who gave them the idea. One guy actually set his sights on Tianhe City, wanting to use the power of Tianhe City to help him seize the throne."
"The demons are very powerful. It is not easy to defend Tianhe City, and we cannot withstand their harassment and nonsense."
Knowing that Xia Zhao was firmly in that position, Lu Qingshan did not worry too much. Even if he didn't know, he would not be worried.
Sword Immortals always give people a great sense of security, as if everything is stable as long as they are around.
"Then what?" Lu Qingshan was very cooperative.
"They wanted to use the power of Tianhe City. I told them not to do that. They agreed verbally, but they didn't stop their actions."
"Pretentious obedience, secretly disobeying," Chu Mushen nodded affirmatively, "Yes, that's the word."
"Then how did you do it?" Lu Qingshan asked.
"They are good at strategy, but I am not. However, they have a shortcoming, a fatal shortcoming..."
"They can't beat me." Chu Mushen picked up the chopsticks again, picked up another piece of fish and put it into his mouth. After sipping the tea carefully, he continued to speak lightly.
"They didn't obey, so I killed the leader, and then they obeyed."
"Good kill." Lu Qingshan clapped his hands in approval.
Clean and neat.
This would also be his choice.
"Although he is one or several generations away, he is still his blood after all. I don't feel sad or upset about this, but I always feel that it is a bit impolite . I think, killing one is fine, but if I kill too many, if he appears again one day, how bad will I feel? It just so happens that someone already sat in that position at that time. It was a woman, a sensible woman."
"So I sent my support to her - even though I didn't know her."
From this point of view, the reason why Xia Zhao became Xia Zun was not only because of the Chang'an Sword Immortal, but also because of the help of the Tianhe Sword Immortal, although it was passive.
Lu Qingshan thought.
"Since then, I have never cared about his family affairs. After all, I am very busy." Chu Mushen's gaze fell on the fish soup that was still boiling in the bronze tripod, and his eyes dissipated along with the hot mist.
"What have you been busy with all these years?" Lu Qingshan asked curiously.
Chu Mushen looked at Lu Qingshan and said seriously: "In these years, apart from eating fish and fighting, I have spent most of my time thinking about a problem."
"What's the problem?"
"How can we defeat the demons?"
"Do you have any idea?" Lu Qingshan asked.
"Yes." Chu Mushen nodded.
Lu Qingshan looked up in shock.
"I told them not to do this, but they didn't listen. I killed the leader, and then they obeyed because they knew it would be easy for me to kill them, and they were scared."
"The demons should be like this too."
"They are not afraid now because I am not strong enough."
"I just need to get stronger. Be as strong as him."
Lu Qingshan knew who Chu Mushen was referring to as "he".
"Then, I discovered a new problem." Chu Mushen showed annoyance for the first time.
"What?" Lu Qingshan vaguely realized that this communication between Chu Mushen and himself finally touched the core.
"The road of cultivation is long. After so many tens of thousands of years, there must be someone who can reach the end of the long road of cultivation. Then why is there only one Xia Zu?" Chu Mushen asked Lu Qingshan.
"Yes, why?" Lu Qingshan was silent for a long time, then spoke.
Chu Mushen said, "We have no way of knowing whether the sky has life, but we can know that the sky has its own will."
If Chu Mushen and Lu Qingshan had said this before the Daoyuan Realm, he might not have been able to understand it.
But after experiencing the Daoyuan Realm, Lu Qingshan already had a deep understanding of the so-called will of heaven.
Lu Qingshan nodded in agreement.
"It looks down on the world. To it, all people are ants. Even those cultivators who can overturn rivers and seas are just stronger ants to it."
"It doesn't care what the ant does."
“But what if one day, an ant suddenly looked up at it, and then flew into the sky, wanting to exist side by side with it, or even to transcend it and take away the world’s power that it regarded as its forbidden fruit.”
"How could it allow this to happen?"
