A Sky-Climbing Vine suddenly pierced through the void and stabbed at Kun Peng.
Gu Yanying dodged the attack elegantly, but more Sky-Climbing Vines pierced through the void, forcing her to retract her wings and land in front of Dragon Head Mountain instead.
Luo Hou Xiaoming was standing on a steep rock at the foot of the mountain.
Li Qingshan jumped down and landed on a rock not far away. Even though he knew that he hadn't finished it, he couldn't help but ask, "How is it?"
Luo Hou Xiaoming pursed his lips and shook his head slightly. "No."
"Hey, you're a god, how can you say no?"
Luo Hou Xiaoming puffed out his chest and raised his head. "I'm a god of war, not a gardener. This Sky-Climbing Vine isn't even a thousand years old. It's only grown to this size because of excessive enthusiasm. It hasn't formed any spiritual consciousness at all, let alone become a spiritual monster. With our cultivation, it's easy to destroy it, but it's almost impossible to control it. "
Li Qingshan knew that plant spiritual monsters were famous for their long lifespans, but their growth was also extremely slow. The more exotic a plant was, the more difficult it was to become a spiritual monster.
It often took a long time to form spiritual consciousness, but it was only at the level of a wild beast. After a long time, it would possess intelligence equal to that of a normal human.
Otherwise, with so many thousand-year-old spiritual herbs and towering trees in the world, if it was so easy to become spiritual monsters, the world would be full of plant spirits. In fact, among the 72 Daemon Monarchs, there were only a few plant spirits.
If this Sky-Climbing Vine could become a spiritual monster one day, it wouldn't even be considered a child now. It was almost in the embryonic stage, still in a state of chaos. It acted based on instinct, unable to communicate, and wouldn't be threatened or tempted.
Li Qingshan was a little unwilling. "Then how can Qian Rongzhi control this Sky-Climbing Vine?"
"That has to be done when this Sky-Climbing Vine is very young, injecting its own consciousness to control it. Otherwise, why do you think Chuo Long left behind such a huge hidden danger? No matter how much he trusts his fellow disciples, he might as well control this Sky-Climbing Vine himself. That Qian Rongzhi probably calculated this. "
To some extent, Suo Long's defeat had a lot to do with this characteristic of the Sky-Crawling Vine.
Li Qingshan looked up at the Heaven Climbing Vines on Dragon Head Mountain. He didn't speak for a long time, and his expression was very disappointed. He wholeheartedly wanted to be the hero who saved the world. But if he couldn't control the Heaven Climbing Vine, then everything would be over.
Am I really not made to be a hero?
Gu Yanying was used to seeing him fight to the death. No matter how distressed he was or how dangerous the situation was, he had never shown such an expression. For some reason, he couldn't help but feel sorry for him, so he advised, "Qingshan, let it go!"
Li Qingshan took a deep breath. "Xiao Ming, can I ask you a question?"
"Speak."
Li Qingshan grinned, but he realized that his smile was a little forced. He exhaled and said seriously, "When you realize what you've done, you'll know that you've done something wrong. How do you feel? "
It shot down the stars, destroyed the world, and slaughtered all living beings.
What a grand and magnificent phrase. When he first heard this, his heart was filled with envy, and he longed to possess this kind of inconceivably great power. Other than that, he didn't feel much else.
But at this moment, when faced with this situation. Even if he wasn't the direct perpetrator, he still felt extremely heavy.
He remembered that he had just returned to the Nine States. Little Ann slaughtered billions of living beings in several states, which shocked him greatly. But how could he bear to blame her? He said that he had to bear this sin, but it was just empty words.
Now, he suddenly realized that he didn't understand the weight of this sin. This feeling was completely different.
Luo Hou Xiaoming closed his eyes, and his face was cold. "I don't want to answer."
"You're really an amazing guy!"
Li Qingshan praised him sincerely. He thought of the first time he saw him, and how he looked like he had lost his fighting spirit. He really didn't think much of it. He felt that his spirit was not even comparable to that of an ordinary Asura, and it was even worse than his own. But now, he understood how powerful he was.
Because it was actually very easy to get rid of this sense of guilt. He just had to shout, "The world is heartless, and treats all living beings like dogs," and treat all living beings like ants. Many cultivators did this, and he could do the same. As the saying went, "It's not me who's wrong, it's the world."
He could also push the blame to his mother, or even to all living beings. "Who asked you to be so weak? This world is the law of the jungle."
In both his previous and current lives, Li Qingshan had heard too many such opinions, but he didn't. He chose to bear the sin, and became depressed day by day until he died. Even if he was reborn in the fire of karma, and no longer suffered from the backlash of karma, this weight wouldn't disappear.
"Why bother!"
Luo Hou Xiaoming opened his left eye and glanced at him. "Aren't you the same?"
"Yes, me too."
Since they didn't want to twist their hearts, invert right and wrong, and didn't want to shirk responsibility, they could only bear it themselves. This was their pride. Two people who treated all living beings like dogs couldn't stay together for too long.
Gu Yanying clapped her hands. "Alright, let's stop flattering each other! Boys, when do we set off? Qingshan, you can let Deep Blue Lil Fatty take your female friends from the South Sea away from this world, but we can't help the others. "
"Let me try again!"
Li Qingshan leaped up and arrived on Dragon Head Mountain. The densely packed Sky-Climbing Vines entangled him, but they were shattered by the pitch-black power of vibration as soon as they came into contact with his body.
He arrived in front of the Sky-Climbing Vines. The vines were like a dark blue wall, and he broke through the wall and stepped inside.
The vines were hollow, and a winding passageway led to the sky, disappearing into the void.
Li Qingshan sat with his legs crossed, and his mind was as calm as still water. He first used the spirit turtle to make predictions, and then used various techniques …
After a long while, Li Qingshan's mind gradually became turbulent. All of his techniques had failed, and he laughed self-deprecatingly. "I really am a standard hypocrite!"
Yes, even if he had to choose a hundred times, he wouldn't hesitate at all. Even at this moment, he did not feel the slightest bit of regret. For the sake of fulfilling his wish, he would do it even if he had to slaughter everyone with his own hands.
This was the stubbornness of the ox demon, the violence of the tiger demon, and the willfulness of the ape demon.
However, looking back, when he first embarked on this path, he had wanted to become "Niu Juxia". In the end, the sins he had committed were thousands of times more than the bandits of the Black Wind stronghold. Life sure was filled with irony! If he wanted to become a "Hero King", perhaps he could only achieve it in a place like a small world with absolute strength!
No, even in a small world, countless innocent people have died because of him!
His emotions surged, and his scarlet hair gradually faded. The flames in his scarlet eyes were extinguished, and his handsome face recovered its original chiseled appearance. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he was unable to smile or let go.
This unparalleled Daemon King who dominated the world was like a mortal who had made a mistake. He showed a guilty expression and murmured, "I'm sorry!"
At that moment, his heart pounded, and a certain shadow suddenly appeared in the depths of his consciousness. (To be continued …)
