Reason with him?
Fang Xing's words sounded like he was babbling nonsense, which confused everyone. However, they heaved a sigh of relief. Judging from Fang Xing's words, it was obvious that he had no intention of suppressing them in exchange for a chance to leave. Therefore, they did not have to worry about the consequences that they were most worried about. After all, they were very clear that if Fang Xing really wanted to attack them, they would not be able to fight back at all. The ten Dao discussants were still in the Dao miasma. If Fang Xing wanted to eat them, they would not resist at all. Instead, they would even take the initiative to eat him. As for Lu Sou, Mr. Wen, and the others, they would not be able to resist at all in front of Fang Xing …
Perhaps, he really had a way to get out of this situation?
Of course, no matter how they thought about it, they did not expect that Fang Xing was really going to reason with them!
"Is there such a thing in this world?"
With one hand on his waist, Fang Xing pointed at the Immortal Soul of the Great Void Immortal King with the other hand and scolded angrily, "What kind of inheritance is this? What kind of lousy Heavenly Book is this? It is not something impressive. It was obviously hunted down by others and hid here like a tortoise. I don't think this kind of inheritance is good enough for me. Why are you acting so arrogant now? Do you really want to give me the inheritance? I can't refuse it? I can't be your successor, and you want to turn me into a virtual slave? Even if you talk to the heavens, it doesn't make sense, does it? "
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. They looked at Fang Xing in confusion … Are you really trying to reason with him?
The Great Void Baby was also speechless. "If Master was still alive, we might be able to communicate. After all, he is not an unreasonable person. But now … he is only left with the Immortal Soul. He can talk to you and explain to you, but it does not mean that he has spirituality …"
It could not understand if its cheap master was truly ignorant or just pretending to be ignorant. It had already made it clear that the Tai Xu Immortal King had perished, and his spirituality had dissipated. The phantom before it was only a manifestation of his will, and did not possess any spirituality at all. It only knew how to carry out the will of the Tai Xu Immortal King when he was alive. It could be described as a weapon, or a rune. It relied on the large array within the domain to maintain itself, and would only carry out the rules set by the Tai Xu Immortal King when he was alive. It would not change anything!
"If you wish to pursue Dao, you must pay the price …"
"My Great Dao is priceless and cannot be passed down easily. Since you have entered the heritage ground, you have the chance to obtain my creation and rule the universe. You must also be prepared to fail in your pursuit of Dao and be an eternal slave. This is not the opinion of the Great Void Temple alone. The 3,000 orthodoxies in the Immortal Realm all have the same opinion …"
As expected, the phantom of the Great Void Immortal King merely gave a brief explanation, without a shred of emotion.
Of course, there was no chance that he would be persuaded by Fang Xing.
To the Great Void Immortal King's Immortal Soul, he was only carrying out the will of the Great Void Immortal King. There would be no change at all.
But as for Fang Xing's curses, he did explain a little …
For example, some of the most basic principles in the heritage ground were the most common in the 33 Heavens. For example, if one entered the heritage ground and wanted to obtain the legacy, then their body and mind would no longer belong to them. If they could not be the successor, then they would be an eternal slave. These rules were not created by the Great Void Immortal King, but were very common in the Great Immortal Realm. This was because Dao could not be passed down easily. If one wanted to pursue Dao, they had to pay a certain price. And for those who pursued Dao, the biggest price they had to pay was naturally themselves …
Even an ordinary immortal would follow such rules when leaving behind a legacy, let alone an Immortal King!
Either be the successor or be a slave!
And letting one of them suppress the other offenders before leaving was also a common rule.
After all, Dao cultivators cultivated against the heavens and acted according to the heavens. No matter how harsh the environment, they would leave a way out …
It was just that this chance of survival was too harsh for these offenders!
Strictly speaking, the Great Void Immortal King was not that unreasonable. When he left behind this heritage ground, he had merely used the methods that the people of the immortal realm often used. There were only the three main principles of imparting dao here … those who were fated, those who had the heart, and those who had the ability. Of course, before he died, his heart was filled with resentment. Therefore, these three conditions were not so easily fulfilled. They represented the three types of great dao that he was willing to pass down. He would only pass it down if one of these conditions was met!
Those who were fated were actually chosen by him!
Before he died, his last breath had been scattered throughout the myriad worlds, choosing a few babies of exceptional talent. He had cleansed their bones and marrow, allowing their talent to rise to a higher level. If these babies grew up and came here, then they could receive his legacy. Because this group of people represented his will, and were the final successor candidates that his spirituality had chosen …
And those who had the heart would be his successor who could help him deal with his funeral!
The Great Void Immortal King had been besieged and killed, and his heart was filled with resentment. Therefore, he also hoped that someone could inherit his great dao, and become another him. Then they could represent him to kill his enemies, and fulfill his unfulfilled wish. This was the will of the world!
And those who had the ability were those who could truly help the Great Void Immortal King pass down his legacy!
Cultivators valued inheritances as much as they valued their own bodies. Even if they perished, they hoped that someone would be able to carry forward their Dao. So he'd set the third condition, and most importantly, it depended on the natural endowment of the inheritor!
Only these three conditions were set by him. The other conditions were the most common method used by the people of the immortal realm!
Fang Xing naturally understood these principles in his heart …
Of course, understanding was one thing, but he was not willing to accept it. After all, he was not from the immortal realm!
"What do you mean by paying a price for demanding dao? What do you mean by not being your successor and being your slave? What kind of damned logic is this? You have to understand that I don't like coming to this lousy place. You obviously used some kind of trick to invite me in. Speaking of which, I'm still your guest. Now that I don't care about your legacy, hurry up and let me out. Let me tell you, I have urgent matters to attend to outside. If you delay my important matters, let alone some Immortal King, even if you're the heavens, I'll still poke a hole in you! "
Fang Xing did not waste any words, and directly began to scold. His scolding was exactly what everyone was thinking.
Yes, we didn't want to come to this place either …
Wasn't it because you suddenly appeared on the Immortal Path and captured Fang Xing, and we followed you here to save him?
No matter how valuable your legacy is, we don't care about it. What can we do?
If we really came here on our own accord, then it's fine that we were tormented by you. But it was clearly you who found us …
The people present had heard Fang Xing scolding many people before. It was rare that they all felt that Fang Xing's scolding was very reasonable!
Only the Great Void Baby was rather speechless. "To Master, we, who are not even immortals, are obviously ants and worms. Will you squat on the ground every day and reason with ants? He won't care if you're willing to come or not. It's just like how you turned those fat pig disciples into Great Demons. This is a great fortune. Don't tell me that before you enlighten them, you still ask if they're willing or not? "
Although it muttered softly, it did not dare to say it out loud.
It could understand Master's actions, but it could not explain it to Fang Xing!
The difference in the level of the Immortal King could not be explained in a few words …
To put it simply, the Tai Xu Immortal King had given these people the opportunity to inherit his good fortune. That was a great blessing. It was a kind of good fortune in itself. To a certain extent, even if they were to become void slaves, it would be a great fortune that they could not beg for....
"Since you have entered this door, follow my Dao. You can be an immortal disciple or a void slave …"
If even the Great Void Baby could not explain it, then the Great Void Immortal Soul could not.
After a moment of silence, he threw out this sentence coldly. This was considered an answer to all of Fang Xing's words.
When Fang Xing heard this, he was infuriated. He said coldly, "On what basis?"
The Great Void Immortal Soul's answer was even more direct. "Because this is my rule!"
Such unreasonable words directly caused Fang Xing to be unable to say a single word of reason.
Everyone's mood instantly sank to the bottom of the valley.
This was basically blocking off all of their escape routes …
Fang Xing's reasoning had won. At least the Great Void Immortal Soul could not answer. But what was the use?
Strength had always been greater than reason …
Even though the Tai Xu Immortal King was already dead, the domain he had left behind was not something they could resist. The will he had left behind in this domain was heaven and earth. It was everything. As for Fang Xing and the others, they were merely ants that he had taken a fancy to and intended to enlighten. They did not have the qualifications to reason with him, nor did they have the qualifications to make him change the rules...
A feeling of despair surged in Zhu Xiu's heart!
Even Ao Lie, who had just entered and received the voice transmission from the Dao mark, felt the same way …
He looked at Fang Xing with great surprise, as if asking Fang Xing what they should do next …
Could it be that even they would have to kill each other in exchange for a chance to escape?
But Fang Xing did not look at him. He was still looking at the Great Void Immortal Soul. He said coldly, "Let me ask again. Will you let me out?"
"Since you have entered this door, follow my Dao. You can be an immortal disciple or a void slave …"
The Great Void Immortal Soul still gave the same answer. There was no emotion in it, nor any intention of returning the favor.
The anger in Fang Xing's heart gradually rose. After a while, he laughed in a low voice and said, "I originally thought that this inheritance of yours had some value. I might be able to use it in the future, but I didn't expect a dead man like you to set rules for me here. I have kowtowed to you and explained the reason to you. Since you don't give me any face, then I don't have to give you, an Immortal King, any face, right?"
"Since you have entered this door, follow my Dao. You can be an immortal disciple, or …"
The Great Void Immortal Soul spoke again, and it was still the same sentence.
"There's no need to say anymore. It's not the first time I've come to this place …"
Fang Xing gritted his teeth and laughed coldly with a ferocious gaze. As he spoke, his sleeves suddenly swelled up, and then they suddenly opened to the sides. Shockingly, a few tens of fat and stupid fellows that were round like balls rolled out from within his sleeves. All of them wore divine armor and held divine weapons, and they sized up the surroundings in a daze. One of them had obviously just woken up, and he even asked the people by his side. "We've arrived at the Immortal Dimension?"
"We have been intimidated by you and can't resist. But to you, under the Yuanying, we are worse than ants. We are not worthy of your attention, right?" Fang Xing sneered and then shouted, "Disciples, listen up. Turn this land of inheritance … over for me!"
