The tempering of life and death
"It's better to rely on oneself than on others. It seems that Chang Dingtian has a good temperament."
Qin Xiao smiled in the virtual realm. The more he looked at Chang Dingtian, the more he liked him. He really had some of Big Brother Changfeng's style of doing things.
In terms of character, there were some similarities as well. Of course, Chang Dingtian would definitely surpass his father.
Even Qin Xiao felt that he could find some of his own shadow in Chang Dingtian. But it was normal. After all, he was the leader of Nine States City, where everyone believed in him.
It was normal for some of the later generations in Nine States City to look up to him as a role model.
Qin Xiao could see that Chang Dingtian was greatly influenced by him.
This child was a talent that could be nurtured.
The more promising a talent was, the more Qin Xiao wanted him to temper himself. How could he truly grow without experiencing more life and death tempering?
Chang Dingtian and Qin Yueya struggled to walk in the Devouring Domain for another year. For two years, they endured the pain and struggled to move forward, resisting the terrifying devouring power.
They were resisting the power of the Law of No Beginning. They were resisting life.
This was a heaven-defying act.
What kind of courage did one have to not be afraid of difficulties and not lower their heads?
"Cousin, are we really unable to get out of here? If this goes on, we will die here. Why don't … we ask the ancestors for help? If we wait any longer, we might not make it in time, "Qin Yueya said worriedly.
These two years felt like a year to her. It was as if twenty thousand years had passed.
This time, it was only their clones that came out. Their true bodies were still in Nine States City, and they could ask for help at any time.
But Chang Dingtian still shook his head firmly. "Don't worry, cousin. We haven't reached the point of despair yet. If we ask the ancestors for help now, I really can't bring myself to do it. "
"Besides, if we admit defeat now, I'm afraid we won't have the courage to face any danger in the future."
"This time, it will be a great test for us. No matter what, I have to face it bravely. If we give up so easily, I'm afraid we won't be able to go far on the path of cultivation. If we don't even have the courage to do this, we won't be able to face Ancestor Qin Xiao if he comes to save us. "
"Thus, no matter what, I must give it a try. I will not give up until the very last moment."
"Cousin, don't worry. I said that I won't let anything happen to you, so I definitely won't let anything happen to you. Trust me."
Chang Dingtian still had one last trump card.
If he had no other choice, he could use it to save Qin Yueya's life.
However, he had to give it his all. Even if he had to risk his life, he still had to give it his all.
This was the first time he had come out to such a dangerous place to train and encountered such danger.
If he couldn't overcome this hurdle on his first try, then his life would be bleak.
Chang Dingtian's firm conviction would definitely not allow this to happen.
A great tempering could be an opportunity for him to transform.
For the past thirty thousand years, he had basically stayed in the Nine Continents City. If he was far away, he would go to Cinder City and take a stroll in the Hidden Dragon Territory. Until now, he hadn't even left the Hidden Dragon Territory. Naturally, he hadn't encountered any great danger or tribulations.
This time, it could be considered as an opportunity for him to train. Thus, Chang Dingtian had already made up his mind. Even if he had to sacrifice this clone, he wouldn't hesitate.
If he didn't succeed, he would die trying.
This was how dangerous tempering was. If he could overcome it, then it would be a transformation.
If he couldn't withstand the pain, then he would die.
However, the path of cultivation was often like this.
If he didn't dare to risk his life, then many opportunities wouldn't be given to him.
Many opportunities, many transformations, and many breakthroughs had to be obtained by risking one's life.
Of course, there were very few victors. Most of them died during the tempering.
At this moment, Chang Dingtian was also prepared to die. With this determination, he was naturally brave and fearless.
Although he had made up his mind, Chang Dingtian still maintained his calmness. He didn't blindly risk his life.
"With my current strength, it's probably impossible to walk out of here with brute force."
"My only path now is to comprehend the Great Dao of No Beginning. If I can't comprehend it, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to leave this place. "
"I definitely won't ask the ancestors for help. If I can't leave this place, I'd rather die here. The tempering of life and death is more meaningful. "
"In the process of Ancestor Qin Xiao's growth, he had experienced many life and death tempering. However, Ancestor Qin Xiao had always managed to pass through each and every time."
"It's these life and death tempering that allowed Ancestor Qin Xiao to transform time and time again. He made breakthroughs time and time again, writing legends time and time again. That's why he was able to reach such a great height today. "
"Although I, Chang Dingtian, am ashamed that I'm far inferior to Ancestor Qin Xiao in all aspects, I've always been determined to follow Ancestor Qin Xiao's example since I was young. I've always been determined to follow Ancestor Qin Xiao's path."
"This will be my first attempt. If I can't even get past this, I won't have the face to follow Ancestor Qin Xiao's example in the future. "
"Therefore, no matter what, I have to fight to the death this time."
"Since I need to comprehend and cultivate the Great Dao of No Beginning, let's begin."
Chang Dingtian pondered for a while and made a decision.
If it didn't work, he would change.
He would start cultivating.
Determination and perseverance. He had them all.
Man proposes, but God disposes.
Whether or not he could succeed now would depend on Chang Dingtian's luck. In any case, he was prepared to die. After all, he didn't have much time left.
However, even though he didn't have much time, there were still benefits. In this Devour Domain, the power of the Law of No Beginning had reached a terrifying level. Therefore, the trajectory of the law was easy to grasp.
It was naturally easier to cultivate and comprehend in this place. It was as if the true essence of the Great Dao of No Beginning was completely presented in front of him.
Now, what Chang Dingtian had to do was to race against time.
A hundred years at most. To comprehend a supreme grade Grand Dao, that was truly too hasty, too hasty.
However, Chang Dingtian had no other choice. He had no way out. He could only fight to the end.
One thought to live and one thought to die.
It was very difficult to feel this feeling without experiencing it personally. This kind of oppression, this kind of footsteps of death, this kind of feeling couldn't be described with simple words.
It was a test of the heart, intent, and will.
Qin Xiao, who was in the Mirage, was watching silently. He was increasingly satisfied with Chang Dingtian's performance.
Cultivators should have such perseverance. They should have the determination to not fear death.
When there was an opportunity, one should fight, even if it meant risking one's life.
This was a hurdle. If one couldn't even cross this hurdle, it would be very difficult to truly grow and become stronger.
Cultivation was a path that defied the heavens.
Only by defying the heavens time and time again, succeeding time and time again, could one walk towards true strength.
Occasionally, one or two times of defying the heavens was far from enough.
It was very difficult to defy the heavens each time. The more times, the lower the probability.
The strong were the victors who were born with a very small probability. Their success came from stepping on the failures of countless people.
Therefore, the path of cultivation was also an extremely cruel path. It was a path paved with blood and bones.
Thinking back, Qin Xiao sighed with emotion. "My path of growth was also like this. Time and time again, I fought with the Grim Reaper and pulled my life back from the gates of hell. I relied on great determination, strong perseverance, and fearlessness to face the test time and time again. "
"This is an unbearable past. But now, it's also a good memory."
"Chang Dingtian's determination and determination are not bad. He also has such courage. However, this test is indeed a little too difficult for him. Whether he can succeed or not will depend on his luck. "
Qin Xiao could only wait now.
He naturally hoped that Chang Dingtian could grow, transform, and successfully take this step.
The significance of this step to him would definitely be huge.
Time, year after year passed. The more time dragged, the worse the situation would be.
Chang Dingtian would only have a mere hundred years of time.
And this was only the limit. If he really dragged it to a hundred years, even if he succeeded, it would cause indelible damage to Chang Dingtian. His vitality would be more or less devoured. Then, Chang Dingtian's clone would be almost crippled.
Therefore, if he wanted to preserve this clone, it would be best not to exceed fifty years.
Fifty years was too short for the cultivation of a Deity.
Wanting to master the Great Dao of No Beginning in such a short period of time sounded like an impossible task. It was something that no one could do.
It sounded like it was enough to make one despair.
However, the path of cultivation that defied the heavens often required one to find a way out of despair.
Only then could one go against the heavens and dance.
Chang Dingtian was fully immersed in his cultivation. The more pressure he was under, the more his potential was stimulated.
His heart was as clear as a mirror, as calm as still water. The true essence of the Great Dao of No Beginning and the trajectory of the laws were clearly visible and presented in Chang Dingtian's mind.
Chang Dingtian's comprehension ability was pretty good, especially in such a cultivation environment. It was naturally easier for him to comprehend the true meaning of the Great Dao.
Time was still passing. Chang Dingtian was completely immersed in his cultivation and couldn't feel the passage of time.
In the blink of an eye, more than forty years had passed.
Qin Yueya, who was waiting by the side, was burning with anxiety. She couldn't wait to seek help from the Old Ancestors.
However, on her side, Chang Dingtian was holding her back, not allowing her to seek help from the Old Ancestors.
Therefore, she could only wait there anxiously, not knowing what to do.
She was really afraid that if this were to go on, she wouldn't even have the chance to seek help from the Old Ancestors.
She was afraid. She was really worried.
However, at this moment, she didn't dare to interrupt Chang Dingtian's cultivation.
His heart was as clear as a mirror, and his thoughts were empty. His comprehension of the Great Dao was also increasing rapidly.
All rivers flowed into the sea. He wanted to break through the Great Dao of No End.
However, if he wanted to take this step, it was way too difficult.
At this moment, countless thoughts were colliding in Chang Dingtian's mind.
He wanted to find a way to break through from these complicated thoughts, a way to leap up, a way to transform.
He felt that he was still lacking. Just a little bit more and he would be able to find a way.
He would be able to find a way to break through from this extremely complicated world.
