"Hey, hey, stop fooling around. Even though we're in my Knowledge Realm, you should be worried about being struck by lightning if you're boasting, right?"
The words that came from the strange tower almost made Fang Xing jump up in fright. He could not help but shout as he looked up.
He had naturally guessed that the beings in these strange towers were not simple. It could be said that although he had come into contact with them by chance and led them into his Knowledge Realm, they must have their own reasons for staying behind. Otherwise, Fang Xing would not think that they had nowhere to go just because they only had one strand of their true spirit left. Based on their cultivation, even if they only had one strand of their true spirit left, they would still have many options. They could either find a good seed and possess it and be reborn. At the very least, they could enter the cycle of reincarnation and rely on the mysterious power of heaven and earth to reincarnate and restart their cultivation path!
However, since they had not considered possessing him, nor did they have any intention of reincarnating, their purpose was obvious!
These fellows must be waiting for something!
But no matter what, he did not expect this group of fellows to say something like this...
Bury the heavens, the earth, the people, the Immortals, and the countless living beings!
"I've heard of some lunatics who, after suffering a loss, would blame the heavens and the earth, blaming the gods and ghosts. They would always feel that the entire world has treated them badly. Some would even be so crazy that they would drag everyone, even the entire world, to be buried. But I've never thought of it that way!"
Hearing this, Fang Xing, who had originally wanted to step into the strange tower, did not dare to do so.
"You think that this world should not be buried?"
As if sensing Fang Xing's thoughts, the voice in the strange tower laughed coldly. With a sense of insight, it said, "I truly felt it. Just now, you did have the intention to destroy the world. You had the intention to slaughter everything, kill all living beings, and even destroy the heavens and earth. If not for that strand of Demonic Will, do you think you could have easily borrowed my name?"
"Just now?"
Fang Xing was stunned. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly. "I did have such an intention just now!"
"And then?"
Within the strange tower, the Heavenly Fiend's voice resounded, "Killing a few people and slaying a Golden Immortal. Is that it?"
Fang Xing shook his head with a helpless expression. "No, it's just that I've figured it out!"
Inside the strange tower, the Heavenly Demon was slightly startled. "Huh?"
Fang Xing smiled bitterly and said, "Or I should say that I've always understood that there's nothing to think about. Humans, or all living creatures, have always been like this. You have to eat, and others have to eat. You have to cultivate, and others have to cultivate. When there's something good, everyone wants it. Then, don't we have to use all kinds of methods to fight for it? These people talk about good and bad all the time, but in my opinion, they are all the same. There is no such thing as good or bad. There are only those who treat me well and those who treat me badly. If there is no such thing as an inherently evil person … "
He raised his head slightly and looked at the top of the strange tower. He smiled and said, "… Then who can be more evil than me?"
"… Continue!"
His words caused the beings in the strange tower to fall silent. After a long time, they finally spoke in a low voice.
"Sigh, if I think about it, I've been on this path for quite some time. It should be at least a hundred years, right?"
Fang Xing sighed. He seemed to have the intention to talk to the beings in the strange tower. He sat cross-legged at the entrance of the strange tower and sighed softly. "In these hundred years, I've seen too many strange things, too many people. I've killed many people, robbed many people, made many friends, helped many brothers … I've even married five wives! Then, I realized that people can change. At this time, you hate him so much that you want to kill him, but when you look at him from another perspective, you find him quite cute! "
"People can change?"
The Heavenly Demon sneered in a low voice, seemingly full of endless ridicule.
Fang Xing hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, "Let me finish. At first, I also thought that people can change. Later, I realized that it's not people that have changed, but things that have changed. For example, in Fuyao Palace, we were originally enemies. There were thousands of women in the palace, and none of them didn't want me to die quickly. But when the God Race invaded, they were willing to sacrifice their lives for me and rescued me from the battlefield. And that fatty Dao Wufang, I also wanted to kill him when we were in Tianyi Palace. But later on, we changed our positions and became friends. I originally hated his bad intentions the most, but now I think that fatty is quite smart …"
"So you want to say …"
This time, it wasn't the Heavenly Demon who took over the conversation, but another voice, which sounded like an immortal.
"… So when others make me angry, I also want to go crazy and kill them all. And that's what I did. I didn't show any mercy when I killed people. In the battle just now, I killed more than a hundred people in Tian Yuan. But even so, so what? I hate them, but I also know that humans are like this. We are all humans, so I will only hate them. I won't be completely disappointed in Tian Yuan. I want to slaughter Tian Yuan and bury the Starry Sky at the slightest provocation. It makes me feel so wronged … "
As he said this, Fang Xing shook his head and said tentatively, "… Because of this, isn't it too pretentious?"
Perhaps it was because Fang Xing's words were too surprising, but no one in the strange pagoda spoke for a long time.
"In other words, you won't become an enemy of Tian Yuan because of this …"
After a long time, the immortal's voice rang out, "… Then will you help them again?"
"I've said it before, I'll choose whoever chooses me!"
Fang Xing replied in a very relaxed manner, "Although I won't blame them, Tian Yuan doesn't seem to take me seriously either. That elder of the Philosophers Dojo took my name and framed me. Many people in Tian Yuan and Philosophers Dojo would rather believe him than believe me. Perhaps they have a hundred excuses to say that they misunderstood or something, but they still don't believe me!"
After hearing Fang Xing's words, the strange tower fell silent again, as if there was nothing they could say.
Inside the strange tower, all the existences were having an intense debate …
"His demonic will isn't strong enough. It's even as Senior Heavenly Demon said, he doesn't have a demonic heart at all. He won't be able to achieve great things!"
There was a voice that sounded very disappointed and disinterested.
"If one could achieve great things with just a demonic heart, perhaps I would have already done it back then!"
On the other hand, the Heavenly Demon spoke softly, as if explaining on behalf of Fang Xing.
"But his stance isn't firm. How can we be at ease passing everything on to him? Who can be sure that the inheritance won't deviate from the right path in the future and end up benefiting the Philosophers Dojo, the Buddhist Sect, the Dragon World, or the Immortal World?"
Another voice spoke coldly, causing several sighs to ring out.
"But I feel that his stance is actually very firm!"
The immortal's voice rang out softly, "He is an extremely selfish person. This selfishness makes it so that he won't sacrifice himself for any side, but he doesn't have a demonic heart. The vast world might be everything to others, but it's like a child's game to him. Everything is up to his heart's desire, so he will never truly hate any side, but he will never truly be loyal to any side either. This also means that he can only follow the Supreme Path and our expectations until …"
He didn't finish his sentence, but the existences in the tower clearly understood.
"Give it to him!"
The Heavenly Demon took over and said softly, "Now that things have come to this, there's no other choice!"
"Hey, I'll leave if you don't say anything."
Seeing the silence in the strange tower, Fang Xing couldn't help but poke his head in and pretended to leave.
"Have you heard of the legend of the great calamity?"
But a timely voice rang out from the strange tower. Fang Xing immediately turned around and said with a solemn expression, "I have!"
In the strange tower, the immortal let out a long sigh. "Then do you want to know why we're all staying in your mental realm?"
Fang Xing's eyes shone brightly. "If you dare say that the great calamity is because of you, I'll kick you out …"
The immortal: "…"
"Don't be ridiculous!"
The Heavenly Demon's voice rang out from the strange tower. "What we want you to know is a part of the past!"
Fang Xing frowned and didn't reply. Clearly, he wasn't very interested.
But the Heavenly Demon ignored him and continued speaking. "Ever since the Heavenly Origin Celestial Sage Battle, the Immortals created the path of ascension. After countless bloody battles, they created endless glory. Especially 10,000 years ago, the 33 Heavens was an ideal Immortal Realm that didn't even exist in the ancient records. Immortals, dragons, buddhas, demons, gods, demons, humans, they all lived in different realms and explored different Daos. But all of this eventually collapsed 10,000 years ago, and endless killing and war began …"
As he spoke softly, the Heavenly Demon's voice became heavier and heavier. In the end, it was like a dark cloud covering the sky!
And his voice was like thunder, ringing out above Fang Xing's head. "Do you want to know why all of this happened?"
Even Fang Xing's heart couldn't help but skip a beat when he heard the voice. It seemed to be a little uncomfortable.
"No!"
He blurted out, his expression extremely serious.
The Heavenly Demon was stunned. He asked in surprise, "Why?"
Fang Xing recalled Chi 'er's words and said calmly, "The more you know, the more trouble there will be!"
"You …"
The mighty Heavenly Demon was actually choked by these words. He was so angry that he couldn't continue speaking.
"Hehe, don't worry, don't worry …"
Unknown Immortal chuckled and took it. He said softly, "Then, do you want our inheritance?"
The eyes of the stubborn Fang Xing suddenly lit up. "You have legacies?"
The immortal laughed. "Very, very many legacies …"
