No abstraction, no cultivation

Chapter 171 Reckless

In the past, in the world of immortal cultivation, Xu Shun and Lan Daoren traveled during the day and practiced at night. Wherever they went, there were lights in thousands of houses and an atmosphere of peace.

now……

The wilderness, the thick fog, the weirdos, and this powerful Vajra demon god, why are there so many monsters and demons!
Where have all those lights gone?

A trace of irritation rose in Xu Shun's heart, and "I, the tiger" kept roaring!
The powerful Vajra Demon God was split in half and collapsed with a loud bang. A voice came from the cracked earth where the gods and demons appeared: "Who dares to kill my gods and demons!"

Along with the sound, a black cloud flew out, revealing a person who looked like a monk but not a monk, and looked like a Taoist but not a Taoist.

"So you two fellow travelers!" His voice was like a broken gong.

"I have no grudges or hatred against you in the past or present, so why do you want to destroy my gods and demons!" he said again.

It's not that he is a coward, but he knows best what the powerful Vajra God and Demon are capable of.

Xu Shun didn't waste any words with him. They were already robbing people on the road, so why were you still pretending!

Two consecutive black sword lights came out from the sword energy gourd and killed the strange man.

It doesn’t matter what his name is, what matters is what he does!

Killing cannot solve the problem, but it can solve the person with the problem.

"Puff!" The surge in magic power brought by killing made Xu Shun spit out blood.

"Are you okay?" Lu Xingxing looked at Xu Shun who had just killed someone and said, "Let me handle this kind of thing in the future!"

"Don't walk ahead of me, benefactor!"

Xu Shun wiped his mouth, looked around, and said, "Let's keep going! The sooner we find them, the better."

"..."

Lu Xingxing nodded and said, "Okay!"

The two continued walking westward.

Walk and walk, walk and walk, walk a very long way.

Along the way, they encountered many enemies.

A strange mountain village, an illusory city, fellow travelers with evil intentions, and a demon who blocks the road and kills people...

The entire world of cultivation is completely different from the one in Xu Shun’s memory, two completely different worlds.

Until one day, Xu Shun really couldn't walk anymore.

He killed many people, and his cultivation had reached the eighth or ninth level of Dragon Tiger, but he was not sure.

What he knew was that the fight between the dragon and the tiger had reached a fever pitch.

At the edge of a small river, Xu Shun was breathing heavily, like a fish that had come ashore, a fish that had drowned. He felt dizzy, the world was spinning, and he could hardly open his eyes.

Secondly, he felt "my tiger" roaring madly in his body, impulsive, wanting to break out of the cage and fight to the death with "Daolong".

He can't even stop him!

Lu Xingxing was taking care of him and said, "I told you a long time ago, don't kill so many!"

"I can't help it!" Xu Shun vomited blood, feeling that his "Daolong" was strangling him bit by bit, and blood was squeezed out of his lungs.

"You might die!" said Lu Xingxing.

"I know, but I can't help it!" Xu Shun said.

He met some people who deserved to be killed, and he couldn't help it.

It’s like walking on the side of the road and there’s a nasty bug that you can’t help but step on to death.

Those banished immortals, when they have no ability, are allowed to jump around, and when they have ability, they are still allowed to jump around.

Wouldn’t that be a waste of practice?

Then wouldn’t the magic weapon in your hand be taken in vain?

Then why did he come to the world of immortal cultivation?
Is it for cultivating immortality?
For immortality?
If every day of his life was filled with people who disgusted him, he might as well poke his eyes out and die!

"Your condition is very bad. It is very likely that you will explode and die in the next moment!" Lu Xingxing checked Xu Shun's cultivation level, felt the two forces entangled with each other, and said.

Xu Shun waved his hands and said weakly: "I will try my best to stay alive."

Even if he tried, he didn't know. Death came to Xu Shun in such a confused way.

Cultivation is not always smooth sailing, there are risks involved, and the biggest risks come from the individual.

Cultivation is about cultivation and it is about me.

It’s about “I”.

"I" is the driving force of practice, but also the enemy of practice.

A person's greatest enemy is himself. As long as he does not give up and admit defeat, he will rise one day. But spiritual practice is not like that.

Sometimes in spiritual practice, one needs to be...flexible.

Lu Xingxing looked at Xu Shun and wanted to say something, but just as he opened his mouth, he closed it again.

A breeze blew by the stream, making the leaves on the trees sway, just like his mood.

After a long, long time, he suddenly said, "Have you ever encountered a choice?"

Xu Shun said: "What choice?"

Lu Xingxing was silent for a moment, then said word by word: "You can choose to become an immortal? Or choose to fight for an infinite cause? Which one would you choose?"

"What kind of unlimited career?" Xu Shun looked at him and suddenly smiled.

After so long, the reed stars could no longer hide.

"It's what you think!" said Lu Xingxing.

You know, I know.

You know what I'm talking about, and I know you know what I'm talking about.

Not the Riddler, but the truth.

"Of course it's the latter." Xu Shun said with a smile: "What's the point of becoming an immortal?"

Lu Xingxing looked at the calm Xu Shun and couldn't help but sigh, just like the person he met in the fairyland.

Face death calmly.

In the face of struggle, stay positive.

Lu Xingxing suddenly said, "I am indeed not them, but I have a friend who is."

"Making friends out of nothing?" Xu Shun felt even more dizzy and he had to lean against a tree by the river.

He really felt like he was going to die.

He no longer had the strength to tether the tiger in his heart.

Either "Wohu" escapes and dies by self-explosion, or he is crushed to pieces by "Daolong".

"No, he's a real friend." Lu Xingxing said, "I caught him when I was fishing in the fairyland."

"Then your fishing skills are really good!" Xu Shun talked nonsense.

"He was seriously injured and lost his companions. I took care of him for a while and got to know some of his ideas." Lu Xingxing said, "There is a situation that may be useful to you."

"What?" Xu Shun said.

"You know what?" Lu Xingxing's tone of voice seemed like a different person. He was imitating the tone of the person in his memory: "You know what? Sometimes I feel that the world is wrong."

"I am right."

"But I know that this is a wrong perception. The world is there, and it has meaning because of us humans."

“It exists objectively.”

"I am not necessarily right. Because everyone makes mistakes, and no one is always right."

“When facing a wrong world, what we need to do is to observe and summarize, rather than act blindly.”

"When facing an invincible enemy, you should think of a solution instead of just rushing in."

"If the enemy advances, we retreat; if the enemy camps, we harass..." Before Lu Xingxing finished speaking, he heard Xu Shun continue:

"When the enemy is tired, I attack; when the enemy retreats, I pursue!"
