Chapter 8: I Have a wish, to see everyone in the world as a dragon!
"A dream? ?"
Ye Fan was stunned and confused.
"That's right, what kind of wish do you have? In other words, what kind of person do you want to become? ?"
"Do you want to become a peerless mighty figure who can call the wind and summon the rain, or do you want to become a lone ranger who can be carefree and spirited, or do you want to be a sect leader who can suppress an entire region?"
"This..."
Ye Fan's expression was blank. To be honest, he really had not thought about this question.
Li Cangyue asked again, "Then why do you want to cultivate? What is the purpose of your cultivation?"
Hearing these words.
Only then did Ye Fan finally understand.
In his mind, he subconsciously thought of that ruthless woman who had mercilessly humiliated him, broke off his engagement, and brought the ridicule of the entire Shu province upon him -- Mu Yaohua!
At that moment, he blurted out, "I want to become stronger. One day, I will look down on Mu Yaohua from above and return the humiliation that I have suffered a hundred times over."
These words were loud and clear. Coupled with Ye Fan's firm expression and his tightly clenched fists, he appeared passionate and full of backbone.
Even Su Youwei's beautiful eyes looked at him in astonishment.
However, Li Cangyue shook his head with a smile after hearing his words. "It's too small. The worldview is too small!"
"A man can stand eight feet tall. How can he only see a woman?"
"If the world in your eyes is only this big, your achievements will be limited. A mere Mu Yaohua is someone you should smile freely about. How can you restrict yourself?"
"A man must have the courage to reach out and pluck the stars. When you stand above the nine heavens and look back, you will realize that Mu Yaohua, who you once saw as your heart's inner demon, is just a drop in the ocean. She is as small as an ant's dust."
"Boom!"
Li Cangyue's words were like a great bell, deafening and deafening.
It reverberated in Ye Fan's mind for a long time, making his heart and mind tremble.
His face was flushed red, and the blood in his chest surged. He felt a surge of heroic spirit stifled in his chest, and he had to spit it out.
He suddenly raised his head, and his gaze was fanatical. "That's right, a mere Mu Yaohua is not worthy of being remembered by me like this. Eldest senior brother is right, a good man must have the courage to grasp the sun, moon, and stars. I have fallen for it. Compared to eldest senior brother, I am really ashamed to be inferior."
After he finished speaking.
Ye fan suddenly stood up and bowed all the way to express his gratitude.
"Alright, you're still young. It's normal for you to have immature thoughts once. Don't think too much about it."
Li Cangyue said with a smile.
It was as if he didn't think that Ye Fan was only the same age as him, acting like an elder.
When he heard these words, Ye Fan didn't have the slightest change in expression.
Clearly, from the bottom of his heart, he had already regarded Li Cangyue as an elder that he respected and admired.
After paying his respects, Ye Fan's expression appeared even more mature.
The words just now had greatly improved his state of mind.
The most obvious thing was that now, he did not care that much about the woman who had broken off the engagement.
It was even a state of looking down on her.
After Li Cangyue's guidance, he had already thought it through.
The so-called Dao depended on a person.
What kind of person had what kind of Dao. The root of it was just to see what kind of person he had become in his life.
The question that had troubled him for a long time was suddenly enlightened after Li Cangyue's few words.
Regarding this, Ye fan was even more impressed and grateful towards Li Cangyue.
However, he suddenly felt curious.
What was eldest senior brother's Dao?
Thinking of this, he immediately asked, "Eldest senior brother, what is your dream? ? ?"
"My dream? ?"
Hearing this, the corners of Li Cangyue's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
He had finally asked this question.
I was just waiting for you, the opportunity to earn faith points has arrived.
Shua --
Li Cangyue stood up with his hands behind his back. He raised his head slightly and looked up at the sky. He gave off an unfathomable feeling, as if he was pitying the world.
After a long while, he said in a clear voice, "I have a wish. I hope that everyone in this world will be like a dragon! ! !"
"Everyone will be like a dragon?"
"What does that mean? ?"
Ye fan was stunned, but immediately after, his eyes revealed a look of incomparable reverence.
Eldest senior brother was indeed profound and unfathomable. Although his words could not be understood, there was a sense of enlightenment.
"Cough."
After a long time without waiting for Ye Fan's question, Li Cangyue could not help but cough lightly, he continued, "The greater world is vast and boundless. There are tens of thousands of races. Regardless of which race it is, be it humans, demons, plants, mountains, or rocks, they all pursue longevity and unfettered freedom. Am I right?"
Ye fan nodded. "That's right. Ascending to immortality, attaining freedom and freedom. This is the common understanding of the immortal cultivation world. Countless people have sacrificed their lives for this, all for the chance to become an immortal."
"That's right."
Li Cangyue let out a faint sigh. His expression gradually changed to one of pity for the heavens and the people. He said, "Everyone pursues the supernatural power of moving mountains and overturning seas, plucking stars and taking the Moon. But who has lowered their head to look at that pitiful mortal? ?"
"It's fine if he's not a member of our race like a demon, but even us humans, when have we ever treated the mortals below as equals and looked at them with a proper gaze?"
"Most cultivators have always looked down on mortals, and even treat them as ants."
"That's right, unlike those evil and unorthodox cultivators, most righteous cultivators would not intentionally harm mortals. However, I've seen with my own eyes that the aftermath of two immortal sect disciples sparring had destroyed countless lives and homes, causing corpses to be strewn all over the ground, leaving a complete mess."
"Isn't that heartbreaking?"
"This..."
Ye Fan was flabbergasted.
He had never thought of this before.
To be honest, even if he didn't say anything about mortals, he knew in his heart that he was looking down on ants and had a superior attitude.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan was suddenly shocked and his mind trembled. Then, he suggested, "Eldest senior brother, why don't we call on all the cultivators in the immortal cultivation world to establish a rule that they are not allowed to harm mortals? ? ?"
"Difficult, too difficult. Moreover, it won't cure the root of the problem."
Li Cangyue shook his head.
Ye Fan's eyes lit up. "Eldest senior brother, do you have a way to cure the root of the problem? ?"
Li Cangyue nodded. "That's right."
"Eldest senior brother, please enlighten me!"
"We cultivators often say that when a golden core is swallowed into the stomach, my fate will be determined by me and not by the heavens. The pursuit of longevity and the path of Immortal Ascension is to defy the heavens. What is the purpose? It is to hold fate in one's own hands."
Li Cangyue said, "As for mortals, because they are born without spiritual roots and do not have the ability to control fate, life and death depend on other's expressions. This is not good. All living things are born with both surplus and deficiency. This is the Great Dao. Therefore, mortals also need to have the method to control fate."
Ye fan seemed to be listening but did not understand it. "Eldest senior brother's meaning is? ?"
The corner of Li Cangyue's mouth rose slightly. He smiled meaningfully and said shockingly,
"I have a method that can allow mortals to cultivate and get rid of the shackles of spiritual roots!"
