Gu Qingfeng had originally planned to stay in Yunxia Mountain for a few more days. After all, he did not know when he would be able to see him again. Therefore, he wanted to spend more time with Huo De.
He did not have many close friends in this world. Huo De was one of them, and Gu Qingfeng had always regarded him as his elder and family. Otherwise, he would not have come to find Huo De first after he woke up after the catastrophe.
The destruction of Yunxia School was also caused by Gu Qingfeng. He knew that in Huo De's heart, Yunxia School had always been his home. Gu Qingfeng wanted to rebuild Yunxia School for Huo De, but he was rejected.
Huo De said that since it was destroyed, so be it. Rebuilding Yunxia School took too much effort. He no longer had the energy and was too lazy to do it.
Since Huo De said so, Gu Qingfeng could only do as he was told.
When he asked if he needed help with his cultivation, Huo De also shook his head.
Huo De knew that Gu Qingfeng was very capable. It would be a small matter for him to help him cultivate a Nascent Soul or even a Primordial Spirit. Not to mention a Primordial Spirit, even becoming an immortal was not a big deal.
However, after so many years, Huo De had long lost interest in cultivation. Becoming an immortal was no longer tempting to him.
After witnessing the despicable actions of the immortals, he had lost interest.
After witnessing Gu Qingfeng killing the immortals of the Nine Heavens as easily as slaughtering dogs and pigs, he had completely lost interest in becoming an immortal.
What was so good about becoming an immortal?
Although one could live forever, it was only limited to one's lifespan.
However, that was only in terms of lifespan. Immortality did not mean immortality. If one met someone like Gu Qingfeng, they would not even have the chance to resist. It would only take a flick of a finger to turn them into ashes.
Since that was the case, what was the point of cultivating him?
Huo De had come into contact with the so-called Immortals in this world. Those Immortals did not live as glamorous as they appeared to be. They lived in fear all the time, suffering from the three calamities, six disasters, and twelve tribulations. Every day, they lived in fear. If they were not careful, they would either be invaded by inner demons, have a mental breakdown, go crazy, or die suddenly.
This was not important. What was important was that he had heard from Gu Qingfeng that the immortals above the Nine Heavens did not live as carefree as the legends said. They were like dogs, living an ignoble life in order to survive.
Huo De had finally gotten over it. He had completely gotten over it.
Instead of boring cultivation, instead of living in fear every day, instead of living an ignoble existence, it was better to live happily and carefreely.
This was a good state of mind.
At least, in Gu Qingfeng's opinion, it was not a bad thing. He had experienced a lot and seen a lot. He also had a lot of understanding of the Dao. He clearly knew that many things could only be achieved by letting go of them. Only by letting go of them could one achieve the Great Dao.
One had to know that there were not only three thousand Great Daos, but countless.
Giving up the Immortal Dao was only the Immortal Dao. Perhaps by giving up the Immortal Dao, Huo De would embark on another Great Dao.
Moreover, he had divined for Huo De before. This guy really did have such a fortuitous encounter.
In that case, he would let nature take its course.
On this day, the sun was shining brightly.
On a small country road in the Great Northwest Border, a man and a horse were leisurely traveling.
The horse was an old brown horse. Not only did it look old, its steps were slow, and it did not look very spirited.
The same went for the man on the horse.
Although he looked young, that was all. Not only did he not have the vigor of a young man, his spirit was like the setting sun. It was as if dusk was approaching.
He rode the old horse and swayed slowly. His expression was a little lazy. He held a jug of wine and drank from it intermittently. His body swayed along with the horse's jolts.
It was none other than Gu Qingfeng.
His main purpose of this trip was to see if Feng Zhuyue had paid back the debt he owed back then.
Actually, it was to pay back the debt.
As for the debt …
Gu Qingfeng really did not know.
He did not feel that he owed Feng Zhuyue anything.
If he were to talk about emotional debt, he had already paid back what he owed by destroying his cultivation back then.
Logically speaking, he did not owe anything.
But for some reason, Gu Qingfeng still felt that he owed Feng Zhuyue. He also felt a little guilty towards her. Thinking about it carefully, it might be because Feng Zhuyue went to look for him back then, and he found another woman to pretend to be his Dao companion. This caused Feng Zhuyue's temperament to change drastically. She became depressed and felt guilty.
In the end, there was still a knot in his heart between him and Feng Zhuyue that he had yet to resolve.
And this was the purpose of Gu Qingfeng's trip.
This knot in his heart had to be resolved.
Whether it was for himself, for Feng Zhuyue, or for the so-called karma.
Thinking of karma, Gu Qingfeng could not help but think of Jun Xuanji and Yun Nishang.
Gu Qingfeng did not know whether his karma with Jun Xuanji was from his previous life or this life. He still did not know now.
His karma with Yun Nishang could be from his previous life, and it could also be from the so-called Era of Mystery.
Gu Qingfeng did not understand why Jun Xuanji was lost. He also did not understand why Yun Nishang's soul was buried.
He did not even know if Jun Xuanji was really lost. He also did not know if Yun Nishang's soul was buried.
He could not see through Jun Xuanji, and the same went for Yun Nishang.
He closed his eyes and drank a mouthful of wine. Recalling Yun Nishang's words, he murmured, "Ancient catastrophes, the three cycles of reincarnation, the karma of the previous life and the current life. Our fate depends on the heavens."
After saying that, he shook his head and smiled. "Will that mysterious Era of Mystery really reappear in the present?"
"The previous life and the current life will meet like the reversal of Yin and Yang? And they will fight for life and death for the word 'I'? "
Gu Qingfeng could not help but feel curious. He also felt a little emotional.
He was curious about what kind of person his previous life was in the Era of Mystery.
Legend had it that the Era of Mystery was an extremely crazy era. Immortals and demons were everywhere. The sun and moon were incomplete. All kinds of powerful people could do whatever they wanted. They were omnipotent.
Gu Qingfeng wondered if the Era of Mystery would really reappear in the present. He wondered if his previous life would fight for the word 'I'.
If they fought, who would win?
He did not know.
The previous life and the current life would fight for supremacy. Such a thing was not recorded in the ancient legends, let alone hearsay.
The sun set in the west. It was almost dusk.
Gu Qingfeng took out a painting. There was only a barren mountain in the painting. The painting was called "Nirvana Selflessness Painting."
Yun Nishang had said that this painting contained everything he wanted to know. However, Gu Qingfeng had looked at it countless times and still could not see anything fishy.
At most, he felt a sense of déjà vu.
When he looked at it again, it was still the same.
Gu Qingfeng rode the old horse and drank a little wine while looking at the painting.
He did not know how long he had been looking at it. Suddenly, Gu Qingfeng had a special feeling. It was a very familiar yet strange feeling.
