After all, rumors were just rumors.
No one knew if they were true or false.
This thing could not be completely believed, but it could not be ignored either. If one believed it, one would only believe twenty to thirty percent of it. As for the rest, one could just treat it as a joke.
Gu Qingfeng thought about it.
Back then, nature had forced a seed on him. It was definitely not a coincidence. There must be something fishy that he did not know about.
There were three kinds of motives behind this.
Either it wanted to use him.
If it was rumored that the Immortal Dao and the Heavenly Dao were colluding to suppress the Human Dao and nature, nature would definitely need to use some people to restrain and deal with the Heavenly Dao and the Immortal Dao.
That was one of them.
Secondly.
There was also another motive. It might be to set a trap for him.
Nature might have long known that he was a person of original sin and had an illusory self. He was also the biggest variable in the ancient era and might cause a catastrophe in the future. For the sake of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and all living beings, nature had long set a trap for him to restrain and deal with him, just in case.
If it was not the first or second possibility, then there was only the third possibility.
It was karma.
Karma was something that could not be explained clearly. It was related to the previous life, this life, and even the next life. It could be said that it involved the past, present, and future.
Even if one were to guess, one would be able to guess the meaning of the word 'karma'.
In addition to the seed that nature had forced on him back then, the Great Dao seed that had smashed into his body along with the turbulent flow of the Great Dao also made Gu Qingfeng feel extremely terrified.
Until now, he still clearly remembered that he had been cultivating back then when he suddenly discovered the turbulent flow of the Great Dao.
The turbulent flow of the Great Dao was not something that could be encountered easily. It would only appear when the Great Dao collapsed or the Great Dao was destroyed.
That was not important.
The important thing was that when the turbulent flow of the Great Dao appeared, a Great Dao seed had coincidentally smashed into Gu Qingfeng's body.
Gu Qingfeng knew that nature would not force a seed on him for no reason.
A Great Dao seed would not fall from the sky and smash into his body for no reason.
He did not know what the seed that nature had forced on him was.
Similarly, he did not know what the Great Dao seed that fell from the sky was.
He was the only one who knew.
After the Seed of the Great Path smashed into his body, it inexplicably fused with him. It felt as if it belonged to him in the first place, like raindrops falling from the sky into the sea. There was no distinction between them at all.
Moreover, after fusing with the seed of the Great Dao, Gu Qingfeng had once inexplicably felt that someone was sending him a message.
To this day, he could still remember it clearly.
That seed of the Great Dao said that they had discovered him and were even looking for him.
He also warned him to be careful of the Hasa Clan and the Kasyapa Clan.
He even told him not to believe in karma and said that it was their trap.
She even told him not to believe in his previous life and not to believe in himself.
He said that the amount of karma he had was equivalent to the amount of past lives he had.
In the end, he told him to find a woman, saying that he had the woman's back, and repeatedly told him that he had to find that woman.
Gu Qingfeng still couldn't figure out what was going on.
Gu Qingfeng did not know who the so-called them that the Great Dao seed was referring to.
What Hasa Clan? What Kasyapa Clan? Who were they? Gu Qingfeng didn't know either. He had never heard of them before.
Gu Qingfeng didn't quite understand what it meant by the amount of karma he had was equivalent to the amount of past lives he had.
What made Gu Qingfeng even more depressed was that the seed of the Great Dao also told him to find a woman. What woman? Why did he have the woman's back? Gu Qingfeng couldn't figure it out even after racking his brains.
He originally thought that he could get some clues from the old monk Jimie. Unfortunately, when Gu Qingfeng mentioned this matter, the old monk Jimie kept his mouth shut.
He knew that the old monk Jimie must know what the Hasa Clan was and what the Kasyapa Clan was. He just didn't want to say it.
To be precise, it wasn't that he didn't want to say it.
At that time, the old monk had already told Gu Qingfeng clearly that there were some things that he didn't want to say, and it wasn't that he couldn't say it, but that he didn't dare to say it.
As for why he didn't dare, the old monk didn't say it clearly.
He didn't know why he didn't dare.
Gu Qingfeng thought that the so-called Kasyapa Clan and the Hasa Clan were most likely related to the Daoless Era.
It was just that he didn't know what it had to do with the Daoless Era.
This matter had been in Gu Qingfeng's heart for a long time. He had always wanted to find the answer to this puzzle. Unfortunately, he didn't know where to start. There were no clues at all. There was no place to look even if he wanted to.
Moreover.
To be honest, even if he knew where to look, Gu Qingfeng might not go.
Because he had been tossing and turning for most of his life, he was too lazy to toss and turn anymore. He really couldn't move anymore. There were too many things on his shoulders. If he tossed and turned, it would be endless and he would inevitably be completely trapped. At that time, even if he wanted to relax and drink a little wine, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to do so.
A person's life was neither long nor short. In order to survive, Gu Qingfeng had tossed and turned for most of his life. In the second half of his life, he didn't want to toss and turn for the sake of karma. For the time being, even if he could finally solve all the doubts in his heart and understand the karma, so what? In this life, he was only scared and tossed about by some trivial things. What was the point?
This was just tossing and turning to understand. If he didn't understand it in the end, it would be even more useless and even more aggrieved.
Gu Qingfeng didn't live for the sake of tossing and turning, but to enjoy life. Back then, in order to survive, he had tossed away his youth. Now that he finally lived a more carefree life and didn't need to run around for survival, he didn't want to toss away his great life again.
At the moment, he didn't want to do anything. He only wanted to float leisurely and live one day at a time.
"Sisters, tell me, what is the purpose of a person's life?"
Gu Qingfeng suddenly asked such a question, causing Fairy Li and Upper Immortal Qingqing to be stunned. Perhaps they did not expect Nine Nether Supreme Emperor, who was so arrogant, overbearing, and ruthless just a moment ago, to ask such a strange question.
Upper Immortal Qingqing pondered for a brief moment and shook her head. "Great Master, I … I've never thought about this question, and … I don't know what people live for."
"You're still young, so you shouldn't think about such an illusory question." Gu Qingfeng glanced at Fairy Li and asked, "What about you, Younger Sister Li Li? Have you thought about this question?"
"I …" Fairy Li Li hesitated for a while before she responded carefully, "I think people should pursue their dreams when they're alive."
"That's a standard answer." Gu Qingfeng asked again, "What's your dream?"
"My … My dream is very small."
"There's no distinction between big and small dreams. Tell me about them, and I might help you realize them."
"My … Dream is to find a suitable husband, live in seclusion, and live some ordinary days." Fairy Li Li was rather shy as she expressed, "I'm sorry to have made a fool of myself in front of you, Great Master."
"What's there to make a fool of? It's just that … Our dreams are similar. Take a look at me and see if you like him. If you do, why don't we make do with each other?"
