"Force your way through? You want to force your way through this Sea of Tablets? "
After listening to Fang Xing and the rest's analysis, the Dragon Mother and the mixed-blood dragon descendants were all shocked. Their first reaction was that Fang Xing and the rest were purposely trying to brush them off. They were forced by the Nine-headed Worm to spout nonsense. However, after listening to Lu Sou's explanation, they all fell silent as an inexplicable emotion rose in their hearts. After a long while, the Dragon Mother decided to be the lobbyist and explain this matter to the Nine-headed Worm. Meanwhile, Fang Xing and the rest could only stay and wait quietly for the Nine-headed Worm's reply. After all, the Dragon Lady was in the Nine-headed Worm's hands. Even if they thought that they had found the answer, they still needed the Nine-headed Worm's approval!
"Did you come up with this answer?"
Unexpectedly, the Nine-headed Worm did not reject them immediately. Instead, he sent a clone over.
He was still that old man, looking at Fang Xing with interest. There seemed to be a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Although I would probably do the same if I were in your shoes, this is not the method that I came up with!"
Fang Xing moved aside and revealed Ao Lie who was standing behind him. He smiled faintly and said, "He was the one who came up with the answer!"
"Hmph!"
Ao Lie looked at the Nine-headed Worm coldly with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
The meaning in his eyes was obvious. The path of bravery was the foundation of becoming an Immortal. How could a demon like you understand that?
"Actually, this is not an answer at all!"
The Nine-headed Bug slowly shook his head. Just as everyone's expressions changed, thinking that he would not agree, he sighed and continued, "But now that I think about it, it seems that there really is no other way. In truth, I have been guarding this place for seven years. If there really is a way to break through this place, it would not escape my eyes. After thinking about it, there is only one explanation. The way to break through this place is actually very simple. It is just that in these years, my power is not enough, so I can't get through …"
The Nine-headed Worm's words caused some of the people to feel troubled. He was not the only one who was troubled at this moment.
Lu Sou, Mr. Wen, the Happy Toad, and even the group of cultivators were thinking about this problem!
So what if they found this solution?
He was still helpless!
Without sufficient strength, one would not be able to cross the Stele Sea and reach the other shore!
It would be better to just directly reject them and get rid of their thoughts …
However, at this moment, Fang Xing had already taken a step forward and said, "You might not be able to cross it yourself, but it might be possible with us!"
"Indeed!"
The Nine-headed Bug nodded and looked at Fang Xing with a smile in its eyes. "In this Sea of Monuments, every single one of them is sealed with great power. Once a living being enters, it will be surrounded and attacked by them. If one person enters, they will have to bear the weight of the entire Sea of Monuments alone. However, if two people enter together, they will only have to bear half of the pressure. If everyone enters together, even if they don't look out for each other and just share the pressure for others, it will be a great help!"
"Looks like you've already thought of this method!"
Fang Xing raised his head and looked at the Nine-headed Bug in an unfriendly manner, his expression furious.
"I've thought of all the methods, but in the end, I still feel that this method has a higher chance …"
The Nine-headed Bug laughed bitterly and explained helplessly.
"How ruthless …"
Fang Xing narrowed his eyes and smiled. However, there was no joy in his smile, instead, it was filled with loathing. "If we cross the barrier together, it's naturally a good thing for those who are stronger, because there's someone to share the burden with, and he'll be able to walk longer. However, it's a disaster for those who are weaker, because they're originally bait to attract the Divine Monoliths. In the process of crossing the Sea of Monuments, they'll only be swallowed by the Divine Monoliths one by one. In this way, you might be able to reach the other shore, but they'll undoubtedly become your stepping stones when you cross the Sea of Monuments. Hahahaha … Good idea, you want all of us to become your sacrifices?"
When Lu Sou, Mister Wen, the Happy Toad, and the other cultivators heard this, their expressions all changed.
If Fang Xing had not pointed it out, they would not have thought so deeply!
"Don't make me sound so sinister. Since you want to become an immortal, how can you succeed without some danger?"
The Nine-headed Bug's expression did not change at all even though Fang Xing had seen through his thoughts. He spoke calmly, "Furthermore, it's not certain that all of you will die in the Sea of Monuments. Once you step into this place, everyone faces the same amount of pressure. As for who will be able to reach the other side, it will depend on luck and strength. It's hard to say for luck, but in terms of strength, I'm afraid you're not much weaker than I am. Out of everyone here, the ones most likely to reach the end are the two of us. Perhaps that little dragon is included as well. Then, even if everyone else becomes a sacrifice, it's you and I who have treated them as sacrifices. How can you blame all the sins on me alone?"
These words immediately made Fang Xing unwilling to speak anymore. The Nine-headed Bug's words were indeed the truth. Normally, Fang Xing did not have to point this out, but he could not stand the Nine-headed Bug's expression as if everything was within his calculations.
After pondering for a while, just as he was about to argue for something, the Nine-headed Bug seemed to have gotten tired of it. He said faintly, "If you can't think of any other good ideas, then we'll leave in two hours. I don't have a lot of time to waste like you guys. The chance of becoming an immortal is only a sliver. I've waited for seven days, and I've waited for you for another seven days. I don't want to wait a moment longer!"
After saying this, he had already waved his large sleeves, and his clone disappeared into the air.
"This bastard, he clearly had an idea in his heart, but he didn't say it. Instead, he made us bring it up first …"
Everyone present gritted their teeth in hatred. They were indignant, but their hearts were filled with sorrow.
There were some things that were useless even if it was said out loud. They still had to do what they had to do!
The Nine-headed Bug waited for seven days so that they could think of this idea themselves …
He probably knew that if he brought up this idea, Fang Xing and the others would not agree no matter what!
After all, these people were not his subordinates. They would listen to everything he said, and they wouldn't even frown if he asked them to die …
"Speaking of which, I wonder if the Nine-headed Bug regretted throwing all his subordinates into space like trash!"
Fang Xing thought of this and laughed coldly, taking pleasure in the Nine-headed Bug's misfortune.
The Nine-headed Bug must have had a hard time in these seven years. Before he set off, he brought the entire Dragon Palace and countless Sea Clan subordinates with him, while Fang Xing and Ao Lie embarked on the Path of Immortality alone. In the end, when the Nine-headed Bug reached the third stage of the Path of Immortality, other than the Dragon Lady as a hostage, there was no one else by his side. On the other hand, there were more and more people by Fang Xing's side!
When he thought of this, Fang Xing also thought of some people, and he couldn't help but smile evilly.
"The World of Immortals is on the other side. Whoever wants to become an Immortal, let's go together!"
After thinking for a long time, Fang Xing slowly turned around and looked at the group of people behind him. He pointed at the Sea of Steles and said in a deep voice, "If you don't want to take this risk, you can also stay here. However, it's hard to say what will happen in the future …"
When he looked at them, some people lowered their heads, while others secretly made up their minds.
Fang Xing's heart was heavy as well!
Even though he knew that the Nine-headed Bug was thinking about these people who could share his burden, he couldn't refuse.
First, he needed these people. Second, he needed to face the difficulties in order to enter the World of Immortals …
Although he had the Realm of Knowledge and could take these people into his Realm of Knowledge, he didn't mention this. There was no such thing as becoming an Immortal without paying a price. These people were great cultivators with extraordinary strength. So, he naturally wouldn't allow them to hide in his Realm of Knowledge and live a comfortable life. He would risk his life for them in the Sea of Steles. He had to pay the price for what he wanted!
"This is the Dragon Race's Path to Immortality. I have no reason not to walk to the end!"
Ao Lie was the first to express his stance. He knew that Fang Xing had the Realm of Knowledge, but he was worried that Fang Xing would take him into his Realm of Knowledge.
"Hehe, this old man has been seeking to become an Immortal for a lifetime. Now that I'm at the end, how can I shrink back?"
Lu Sou chuckled and said. His face was full of smiles, but his tone was extremely firm.
After listening to him, Mr. Wen had no choice but to follow him. "Since we have to go, let's go. What other path is there to choose?"
As for the others, there was no need to worry. Except for the Great Void Baby, they didn't even know that Fang Xing had the Realm of Knowledge. Moreover, those who were discussing Dao were deeply affected by the Dao miasma. Fang Xing was their leader. Even if they knew that he had the Realm of Knowledge, they wouldn't ask for his protection. As for the Great Void Baby, he was digging his nose indifferently. He was surprisingly bold and didn't ask for protection at all.
"Well, it's settled then. Life and death are decreed by fate. Riches and honor are determined by Heaven!"
Fang Xing sighed. He didn't care whether he was satisfied with this result or not. But, this was all he could do. When he was about to say something, his eyes inadvertently swept across those fat pig disciples. Then, he couldn't help but be slightly startled …
"We … we are just pets …"
The fat pig Gold Core Realm disciple was trembling. After a long while, he choked out a sentence.
A touch of speechlessness appeared on Fang Xing's calm face. He waved his hand and sighed. "You guys follow me …"
The fat pig disciples who were desperately winking at Fang Xing were overjoyed. They crowded around Fang Xing in a mess. Then, Fang Xing waved his big sleeve and took them into his Realm of Knowledge. It wasn't because he wanted to protect them as a teacher. It was because these fat pig disciples were too weak. Once they entered the Stele Ocean, they wouldn't be able to return. So, they wouldn't be of much help even if they wanted to …
Of course, in the eyes of others, they were filled with endless envy.
"Damn it! I've been around for so long, but I'm still not as good as a group of pigs …"
