1573: C1573 A Test of the Mind

C1573 A Test of the Mind

Time passes slowly.

However, Zhan Tianming seemed to have entered a meditative state. He sat quietly in the center of the nebula vortex, allowing the strange energy to surround his body without stopping.

It was as if nothing had anything to do with Zhan Tianming anymore.

A trace of enlightenment began to linger in Zhan Tianming's heart, but it was denied by him again and again.

His thoughts seemed to be fixed on a special Great Dao.

Was it life?

Was it reincarnation?

Was it destruction?

Was it self?

Yes...

A strange feeling kept spreading in his heart, as if it had turned into an invisible giant hand, pulling Zhan Tianming towards a certain direction.

It was to continue forward and find the truth.

Or should he make his own choice and find the true self?

Between the truth and the true self, which was more important?

Were they the same?

Or were they different?

Where is my goodness? Where is my evil?

What is goodness? What is evil?

What is self?

As time passed, these thoughts that were directed at the hearts of people were also lingering in Zhan Tianming's heart.

The Zifu was used to determine good and evil, the Palace of the Heart was clear, and the Danhai was used to gather the soul.

"What is good?"

"A person's heart is benevolent and kind, and the quality is pure and honest. Punishing evil and promoting good is good. Friendship and harmony are good, helping others is good, filial parents are good. Raising children is good, even if it's just the old farmer who helped to pull the cart when climbing the hill. It was also good, good is everywhere, all good things. You can think of it as good, but what does people think of it as good? "

"Is it morality? Did I say that? Is it predetermined by the Great Dao?"

" What is evil? "

"[Evil is full of evil. Killing and arson are evil, hate and disgust are evil.] Gambling and drugs are evil, even if you trample an ant to death. It is also evil, all bad, all dark... Everything that goes against the moral heart is evil... But in the eyes of evil people, did these things really deviate from their hearts? What is it that evaluates them as evil?"

" What is self? "

" It is my body, it is my consciousness, my heart, it is my soul, isn't everything I have self? "

"But all of this, is truly self?"

... ""

"No, none of these are! Good and evil are separated by a thin line. "

"Someone killed my family. He is evil. If I killed him, it would be the death of a life. It might also cause his descendants to lose their support and be bullied by others. Then I will be evil, but I will eliminate evil for the world... Let more people not be harmed by this person, then I will do good. I will kill him to take revenge for myself, for myself... And then... I took revenge for the other people who died in the other party's hands. It was me... "

"I saved someone. How would I know that this person would not kill others in the future? Then, was it right or wrong for me to save him? Is it good or evil?"

" Where does good and evil come from? "

"When you kill someone, you can also save them. When you save someone, you can also kill people. The Heavenly Dao keeps repeating itself, and good and evil are also repeating itself."

"And all of this, didn't it all come from my own heart?"

"My heart has decided what I should do."

"Good and evil, one with one heart. The good of the heart, the good of oneself, the evil of the heart, the evil of oneself."

" Good and evil cannot be differentiated because they always depend on each other. However, regardless of good or evil, it should be decided by the current situation. "

"When doing good, good is greater than evil, and that is good. On the contrary, it is evil. "

"Good and evil are determined by one's heart."

"I understand..."

The corner of Zhan Tianming's mouth drew a small arc.

Good, evil, and self, weren't they all part of one's heart?

Wherever the heart came, all methods would be achieved.

Wherever the heart went, all methods would cease to exist.

Heart-severing!

It was severing good and evil, as well as oneself.

But how should one sever the heart?

In the blink of an eye, November had passed.

Zhan Tianming sat quietly in the nebula vortex. His mind and thoughts were unknowingly guided by the special energy, experiencing the test of the heart's path.

It was only when he opened his eyes that Zhan Tianming came to a realization.

"This is the test? A test of the soul."

Slowly, Zhan Tianming stood up.

"Master, Dean Sang, thank you. If it wasn't for the help of the Heart Connecting Heavenly Bead, which allowed my soul to be so close to the Great Dao of the Heavens and Earth, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to understand everything in such a short period of time."

Crack, crack, crack...

Crack!

Cracks appeared in the space formed by the Heart Connecting Heavenly Bead.

"Looks like the energy of the Heart Connecting Heavenly Bead has been depleted." Zhan Tianming muttered to himself, not feeling surprised.

After all, it was perfectly normal for a treasure like this to crumble after a year.

In the blink of an eye, Zhan Tianming had returned to the Nine Dragons Academy, which was in ruins.0

This place was still covered by the barrier.

Obviously, there was still some time before the year ended.

Although Zhan Tianming wasn't sure how much time had passed, he could still guess how much time had passed.

Slowly, he raised his head and looked at the Nine Dragons Pavilion in front of him.

There was a pavilion that didn't look glorious and grand. There were nine giant stone dragons coiled around it. Each of them looked lifelike, as if they were nine dragons ascending to the heavens.

"The entire Nine Dragons Academy has been destroyed, and even the Nine Dragons Heavenly Pagoda has been destroyed. However, the Nine Dragons Pavilion is still standing tall. This is interesting."

Zhan Tianming smiled and walked towards the Nine Dragons Pavilion.

Decapitation of Three Corpses.

This was not only to obtain the Stainless Body, but also to obtain a longer lifespan.

When the Yang energy in the human body evaporated and the Three Flames came out of the shell, the Three Corpses worm would appear within the body to fight against the cultivator and devour their life Blood Essence.

Even if the cultivator used the spiritual energy to refine and transform, they would not be able to withstand the Three Corpses worm's devouring.

Therefore, the Decapitation of Three Corpses could obtain even more lifespan.

Even if one could not cut down all the Three Corpses, being able to cut one by one would still be beneficial to a cultivator's lifespan. At the same time, it would also be greatly beneficial to one's disposition.

As Zhan Tianming kept approaching the Nine Dragons Pavilion, a strange energy gradually pressed down on his body.

"The Nine Dragons Pavilion is really special. Before I even entered it, a wave of energy has already started to move the Three Corpses in my body." Zhan Tianming murmured softly, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He continued to walk forward.

The closer he got to the Nine Dragons Pavilion, the more agitated the Three Corpses in his body became.

It was as if the Three Corpses had sensed Zhan Tianming's intention to kill them, and it was unwilling to accept it.

After all, they were in Zhan Tianming's body, and they could devour Zhan Tianming's Yuan Shen, Blood Essence, and life force to nurture themselves.

If they were cut off, they would turn into nothingness.

Zhan Tianming did not stop. He ignored the restless Three Corpses in his body.

However, the Three Corpses was not that easy to give up. It began to bewitch Zhan Tianming's mind.

At that moment, greed was born in Zhan Tianming's heart.
