Immortality, but people in primitive society

Chapter 404 What is the Way of Heaven?

It has been raining heavily for what feels like almost a month. Something is very wrong.

During the day, Yingqiu and I flew towards Kyushu, but it kept raining heavily, occasionally stopping for a day or two before continuing again.

There is water everywhere in the mountains and forests, and floods are raging.

The animals were forced to move from the valleys to the hillsides, and because of the long-term rain, hunting became difficult and many animals starved to death.

We were flying all the way, and even saw many corpses floating along the river during the day.

It feels like the sky is really leaking.

More than a month later, Bai Tian and Ying Qiu had already entered Kyushu, and the heavy rain was still falling. Something was really wrong!

Not long after, during the day, I saw many people migrating in the heavy rain. A huge group of people were moving from Yancheng towards the mountains and forests. It was obvious that Yancheng had been washed away by the flood.

It did not stop during the day, but flew directly to Yancheng.

Sure enough, half of Yancheng had been washed away by floods, and the entire Central Plains seemed to be covered with water.

As Bai Tian and Ying Qiu approached, some people in Yancheng sensed something unusual. Thinking it was an attack by a ferocious beast, they rushed over to kill them.

However, when they saw Bai Tian appearing and disappearing beside Ying Qiu, the group became excited again.

I entered Yancheng during the day and saw Zhuanxu.

Zhuanxu was indeed sick, coughing badly and looking very pale.

When he saw Bai Tian, ​​Zhuanxu was so excited that he coughed so hard that he almost vomited blood.

Seeing Zhuanxu looking so weak that he was about to die, Bai Tian frowned, "Zhuanxu, you are a master after all, how could you be so seriously ill? Could it be that your cultivation didn't extend your life?"

Zhuanxu smiled bitterly, "Haotian, the Jedi Tiantong Project can't be considered a failure, but it's not a success either. The Daishan Fengshan Ceremony was a success and truly impressed everyone. However, the lifespan issue hasn't been resolved...or rather, it's only halfway resolved."

"After the death of the old Sect Master Cangjie, all kinds of rumors began to spread in Jiuzhou, and then chaos began to break out again."

Bai Tian's cheek twitched: "Wait, you said Cang Jie died?"

"Yes." Zhuanxu was very helpless. "Six months after the Fengshan Ceremony at Mount Dai, the old master Cangjie passed away. I sent people to look for you, but received no response."

You’re crying your eyes out, you really don’t know during the day!

Zhuanxu continued, "After that, we discussed how to break the impasse. Gonggong came up with an idea. He wanted to emulate my father and transform himself into the Tao. I didn't agree at first, but..."

"Gong Gong transformed himself into Taoism on Mount Buzhou, hoping to create another ray of hope with his own power, but... but after Gong Gong transformed himself into Taoism, it rained all day long."

"Haotian, I feel like we did something wrong..."

His face turned black during the day. The three realms have been divided now, so why would he transform himself into a Dao?!

Bai Tian sighed in extreme depression, "You shouldn't be so reckless. I told you before that I have always been under the sacred tree of Wanghu Lake, but I just can't communicate with you. Zhuanxu, you must be patient when doing things."

Zhuanxu was also full of vicissitudes of life: "I always wanted to solve the problem of cultivation in Jiuzhou, so as to achieve the true unification of Jiuzhou, but I never thought..."

So eager for quick success!

As mentioned long ago, the Jedi Tiantong Project is a long-term plan, which will take many years to lay the groundwork in the early stages and decades to be repaired after the plan is completed.

As expected, what those in power fear most is greed for credit.

Of course, Bai Tian could understand Zhuanxu's thinking. He had spent his entire life researching the Jedi Tiantong Project, and he must have hoped to resolve the problem as soon as possible. However, the issue of cultivation and longevity could not be resolved in a short period of time.

Even if we have figured out the three souls and seven spirits during the day, it may not necessarily change the lifespan of many people in a short period of time, because changing the concept of cultivation is not that easy.

Bai Tian sighed and said softly, "Zhuanxu, if you had waited until now, the sky would not have been pierced."

"I've found the biggest flaw in the Taichu Method, which is also the fundamental issue of cultivation and lifespan. The Three Souls and Seven Spirits... However, even if I want to promote it, it will take a long time."

"You have to know that once people's lifespans increase, many problems will arise. So we need to lay the groundwork and educate them. I mentioned this to your son Cangshu before: the Way of Immortality, the Way of Immortality. We need to change the mindset of everyone in Jiuzhou and alter the purpose of their cultivation from the pursuit of power to the pursuit of immortality..."

Listening to Bai Tian's words, Zhuan Xu felt even more bitter. After the Fengshan ceremony at Daishan, his confidence swelled, and he truly believed that he could still change the Nine Provinces without Haotian's help.

But he didn't expect that it would rain all the time after Gonggong transformed himself into Taoism.

"Haotian, do you think there is really a way of heaven in this world?" Zhuanxu murmured with a vicissitudes of life while coughing.

This question stumped Bai Tian. He didn't know whether there was such a thing as the Way of Heaven or not!

Sure enough, after practicing to a certain level, he began to point to the sky and ask questions.

But he didn't want to think about this issue too deeply.

Bai Tian thought about it and said, "The Tao that can be told is not the real Tao. Maybe it exists, maybe it doesn't."

"This flood, I'm afraid, is also related to Gonggong's power. Perhaps it's really a punishment from heaven..."

Before Zhuanxu could say anything more, Bai Tian changed the subject. "Zhuanxu, the important things right now are: first, command everyone and make sure they retreat before the flood recedes; second, after the flood recedes, we must quickly revitalize the Nine Provinces; third, restart the education system and incorporate what I called the Three Souls and Seven Spirits into our cultivation."

"This rain will probably set Kyushu back decades."

Strangely enough, it stopped raining the next day after we returned to Yancheng.

However, the weather was still gloomy and the flood lasted for many days before it began to slowly recede.

After the flood recedes, there is a lot to do.

The flood killed many people and affected many cities, especially those near the river.

Speaking of which, I felt quite emotional during the day. Even though everyone in Kyushu had mastered cultivation, they still couldn't withstand the flood. The power of nature truly was beyond human control.

Bai Tian stayed in Yancheng for almost half a month, and told Zhuanxu and others all his ideas about the three souls and seven spirits and subsequent cultivation.

There was nothing he could do next. He was just a soul now, so he couldn't do much.

Moreover, Bai Tian could also feel from this incident that Zhuanxu and even the people of Jiuzhou no longer wanted to rely too much on him.

Speaking of which, it seems that Bai Tian no longer has many acquaintances in Jiuzhou. After Cang Jie died, his connection with Jiuzhou became increasingly weak...

Not long after, Bai Tian continued to fly towards Wang Lake.

On this day, as daylight approached Wang Lake, we suddenly saw colorful lights begin to appear in the sky.

The entire sky was suddenly covered with colorful light and was extremely bright.

During the day, he looked up at the sky, his face filled with depression. What was wrong with the weather? It had been raining for a while, and now there were colorful lights. The key point was, he didn't feel anything at all.

If I say that I represent the Three Realms, then such a big commotion in the Three Realms should serve as a reminder to myself!
