Although Daoist Zi Zhu had bragged to Qin Lang and Gu Qingxun about the benefits of joining the Immortal Register, the two of them had no intention of joining the Immortal Register at all. However, according to Daoist Zi Zhu's words, even on Penglai Island, once one became an immortal, they would have to join the Immortal Register. Otherwise, they would be going against Kunlun.
It seemed like the controller of the Immortal Register was undoubtedly Kunlun.
Even a powerful and transcendent force like Penglai Island would not dare to go against Kunlun directly.
Of course, as Daoist Zi Zhu had said, since this world was called the Ancient Kunlun World, Kunlun would naturally be the leader. No matter how powerful the other forces were, they would not dare to surpass Kunlun. The truth was that simple.
Although Daoist Zi Zhu encouraged Qin Lang and Gu Qingxun to join the Immortal Register, he did not deliberately ask them to join the Immortal Register. After all, Daoist Zi Zhu instinctively did not dare to disobey Qin Lang. Moreover, although Qin Lang and Gu Qingxun were close to the Perfected Immortal Realm, they had not taken that step and had yet to break through to the Immortal Realm.
However, it was obvious that Gu Qingxun was anxious, so Gu Qingxun found an opportunity to invite Qin Lang out of the cave abode. The two of them said that they were going to pick herbs outside the cave abode, but in fact, they were discussing whether to join the Immortal Register.
"Ah Lang, I really didn't expect your cultivation to improve so quickly. You've actually overtaken me from behind. Now, you are only one step away from becoming a Perfected Immortal, so I want to know what exactly you are planning. "Gu Qingxun went straight to the point.
"Little Master, you are about to reach the threshold of becoming a Perfected Immortal. What are your plans?" Qin Lang asked Gu Qingxun with interest.
"Don't call me Little Master anymore!" Gu Qingxun interrupted Qin Lang angrily. "You are my Junior Brother now, but Master seems to treat you better than me! Tell me, what exactly do you want? "
"What I want isn't important. I think you should consider whether to join the Immortal Register. You also know that if you don't join the Immortal Register, you will only be an Itinerant Immortal, and an Itinerant Immortal will have to go through many tribulations, so are you ready? "Qin Lang asked.
"My father once said that if I join the Immortal Register, then I will lose my freedom!"
"Oh? Then, if you don't join the Immortal Register, will you be free? "Qin Lang asked." Have all living beings in the world ever had true freedom? No matter how strong you are, there will always be someone stronger. What is true freedom? Perhaps, only those who stood at the pinnacle of cultivation could experience true freedom. As for us little shrimps, how can we talk about true freedom? We're probably too full of ourselves. "
Qin Lang had never thought of influencing Gu Qingxun's thoughts. He only hoped that she would follow her heart. In fact, Qin Lang certainly knew that Gu Qingxun's words made sense. Once she joined the Immortal Register, she would definitely lose a lot of freedom. However, the key point was just like what Qin Lang had said just now. Would she be free if she didn't join the Immortal Register?
It was as if everyone knew that in the political arena, there must be a hierarchy in charge of the hierarchy. The higher officials could oppress the lower officials, and the lower officials would never have freedom. They would always have to bow to their superiors. But could it be that you would have true freedom if you didn't join the bureaucracy? If he didn't join the bureaucracy, even the lowest officials would be able to control a small citizen.
Therefore, things like freedom were always relative, even for immortals. If you wanted to pursue true freedom, you would definitely have to pay a huge price. This wasn't a simple choice, but a very careful one. However, this choice was only meaningful to Gu Qingxun. For Qin Lang, it didn't mean anything at all, because Qin Lang would definitely choose to continue being an Itinerant Immortal. Although Qin Lang hadn't figured out what the Immortal Register was, Qin Lang knew that once he entered the Immortal Register, he would definitely be monitored by the mysterious "Kunlun", and this was definitely not the result that Qin Lang wanted.
To put it bluntly, Qin Lang just wanted to keep a low profile and didn't want to attract any attention. This was why Qin Lang would rather encourage the artifact spirit of the furnace to betray Daoist Zi Zhu instead of doing it himself. If Qin Lang wanted to do it himself, he could easily kill ten Daoist Zi Zhu. However, that would be completely meaningless, and it wouldn't be in line with Qin Lang's original intention of staying in this world.
"In that case, do you want to enter the Immortal Register?" Gu Qingxun felt that Qin Lang was a bit indecisive.
"No." Qin Lang shook his head and said, "I plan to become an Itinerant Immortal."
This time, Qin Lang's answer was very straightforward. Gu Qingxun couldn't help but ask, "Why? Why is your answer so straightforward this time?"
"I like challenges!" Qin Lang said to Gu Qingxun, "Perhaps there will be many hardships to become an Itinerant Immortal, but I don't care. Although it's good to enter the Immortal Register, it's rare to have freedom. This isn't the life that I want."
"Really? If that's the case, you have to think about it carefully. " Gu Qingxun said to Qin Lang, "I also plan to become an Itinerant Immortal, but I'm doing it for my father and for the Mystic Sacred Palace. Otherwise, why not enter the Immortal Register? "
After making up his mind, Qin Lang and Gu Qingxun returned to Daoist Zi Zhu's cave abode. However, at that moment, Daoist Zi Zhu said, "The order from the Penglai Immortal Island has arrived. If the two of you want to become Immortals, one of you must enter the Immortal Register. This cannot be changed!"
"Order? Whose order is this? "Gu Qingxun felt that this order was ridiculous and couldn't help but question Daoist Zi Zhu.
Daoist Zi Zhu raised his eyebrows and seemed very displeased. One must know that the current Daoist Zi Zhu had been possessed by an Artifact Spirit. He had no relationship with Gu Qingxun. It was entirely because of Qin Lang that Daoist Zi Zhu was taking care of Gu Qingxun. Otherwise, based on the Artifact Spirit's usual style, Gu Qingxun would have been sent flying with a slap if she had gone against him. After all, an Artifact Spirit was an Artifact Spirit. One couldn't expect him to have much humanity. Of course, Immortals themselves didn't have much humanity. What was left was nothing more than profit. The relationship between Immortals was often connected through profit.
For example, if Daoist Zi Zhu didn't have a favor to ask of Qin Lang and was under Qin Lang's control, he definitely wouldn't have been so polite to Qin Lang.
"This is, of course, an order from the Penglai Immortal Island's higher-ups," Daoist Zi Zhu said impatiently. "I've already decided. You can enter the Immortal Register."
