Chapter 220: A Letter from Afar
Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
The Dream-Making Expert
“Don’t try to scare me.”
“Being cold and ruthless isn’t the same as senility.”
“How could it turn someone into stone, into a clay idol?”
Lin Qi shook his head, feeling that Yuyao was belittling the Way of Ruthlessness too much.
A person who walked the path of cold ruthlessness to the very end, like the Great Love Heavenly Venerable.
At most, they would learn to be like heaven and earth, treating all things as straw dogs.
But it wouldn’t go so far as to become an unknowing, unfeeling rock or mud, without even self-awareness.
At least, in most people’s eyes, being cold and ruthless.
Should mean you can do whatever you want, do as you please.
That’s what feels great!
Yuyao gave Lin Qi a deep look, then shook her head.
“Without morality.”
“Without ideals.”
“Without love and attachment.”
“For a thousand years, you’ll feel exhilarated, free.”
“For ten thousand years, you’ll still feel exhilarated, free.”
“A hundred thousand years, a million years, ten million years, the same.”
“But after a hundred million years, you’ll feel lonely, you’ll feel isolated.”
“After a billion years, you won’t even have loneliness or isolation.”
“Because the living beings that brought this cold, dead universe to life mean nothing to you.”
“And after five point six billion years.”
“You’ll be just like this cold, dead universe.”
“The continuation of life, the destruction of the universe, all the beauty in the world.”
“In the end, it all comes down to one line: I don’t care!”
“Then sooner or later, you won’t care about your own existence either.”
“The Great Love Heavenly Venerables who stop at nothing for power and immortality, cold and ruthless.”
“After five point six billion years, they’re nothing but a bunch of cold, lifeless rocks.”
By the end, Yuyao’s voice had unconsciously taken on a note of severity.
As if dissatisfied with Lin Qi’s coldness.
Lin Qi didn’t mind, but he couldn’t agree with Yuyao’s words.
At least for him right now.
Long life and eternal immortality were the only pursuits.
As for whether the path to that ultimate Dao was ruthless or sentimental.
In his view, they were merely means to attain the Dao.
Moreover, as a transmigrator, he truly didn’t have much sense of belonging to the Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm.
Let alone love and attachment.
If that’s how it was.
Lin Qi fell into thought. His situation upon reaching the Return to Void Realm was probably not looking good.
At this thought, he no longer had the mood to argue with Yuyao.
He merely nodded slightly and changed the subject.
“I see.”
“No wonder…”
