Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
“But that is simply how the world is!”
Daoist Zhong sneered, enunciating each word, ice-cold and piercing.
“It was so in the past, it is so now, and it will remain so in the future.”
“You cannot change it, and no one else can change it either.”
“The weak are prey to the strong. That is the law of heaven and earth.”
“Even though your Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm once severed the Heavenly Dao and shattered Reincarnation, believing you had isolated the fate of all beings Beyond Time.”
“But time.”
“Time is the only truly immortal power that can change everything.”
“You cultivators of the Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm shout every day: Everlasting Prosperity to the Heavenly Immortals.”
“But even the Cosmos cannot be eternal.”
“Let alone a group of Heavenly Immortals who can only barely hold on by relying on a wisp of their former human spirituality.”
“Lin Qi.”
“You are a smart man.”
“At this point, you should already see it.”
“Correct.”
“On the surface, it appears Fairy Gushe is undergoing the Return to Void Tribulation.”
“But in reality, this is nothing more than a rehearsal for your own future Return to Void Tribulation.”
“If you cannot even get through Fairy Gushe’s Return to Void Tribulation.”
“How could anyone believe you can get through your own?”
“Do not forget.”
“Your Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm has already birthed its first Heavenly Demon.”
“In the future, who can say whether you will become an immortal or fall into demonhood!”
“Shouldn’t you have seen it already?”
Facing Daoist Zhong’s interrogation, Lin Qi countered.
“You hold the Heavenly Dao. Your consciousness can roam freely through the River of Time.”
“Whether I become an immortal or a demon in the future — do you not know?”
“I have naturally glimpsed a corner of the future.”
Daoist Zhong gazed deeply at Lin Qi, his words heavy with meaning.
“But what if you change your mind?”
“After all, it is easy to change an old friend’s heart, yet one says an old friend’s heart is easily changed.”
“As for the future, no matter how happily we converse today.”
“In days to come, I will be nothing more than an old acquaintance of yours.”
“Just like Fairy Gushe before us now.”
“I still want to know — will you save her or not?”
“After all, everyone knows: one thrives in adversity and perishes in comfort.”
“It took us great effort to temper Fairy Gushe through this Mortal Turmoil and the Suffering of All Beings.”
“If you suddenly intervene.”
“Then all turmoil will be pacified, all suffering will vanish.”
“Her trials will be insufficient, her spirituality will struggle to form.”
“It might even be said that in her later years, Fairy Gushe would have to venture out to sea seeking immortality, saying she truly wishes to live another five hundred years.”
