Chapter 486: Altruistic Heart Without Calculating Gains and Losses
After mastering the "Life" law, Hua Changxi successfully "obtained" two Spring Eye Beads, but when she "took" the third Spring Eye Bead, she encountered resistance again.
"What's going on?"
Hua Changxi frowned, first looked at the "Life" light circle floating above her palm, and then looked at the Spring Eye Bead lying on the crystal bed at the bottom of the spring.
Can't be greedy?
Can only take two?
"Why are there two?"
Hua Changxi was confused, but after thinking about placing the Spring Eye Beads on Pill Origin Peak and Pill Top Peak, she had some realization.
The Undying Divine Tree nurtures Spring Eye Beads, definitely to nourish the holy land. She manages two mountain peaks, so she can only "take" two Spring Eye Beads?
Hua Changxi's gaze lingered on the remaining seven Spring Eye Beads for a long time, as if reluctant, finally slowly withdrew, and then lowered her eyes to stare at the "Life" light circle circulating endlessly on her palm.
This exploration of "Divine Tree Root—Pill Spring" yielded far more than expected.
In past training, what she thought about was how to obtain, only knowing how to seize the opportunities of heaven and earth, as if all things in heaven and earth should belong to her.
The results she harvested, and the feedback from the surroundings, seemed to be confirming the legitimacy and rationality of this state of mind.
But this experience gave her a different state of mind—to "obtain" treasures, one must first know how to "give."
"Predation, giving..."
Just as Hua Changxi was carefully comprehending the difference between these two states of mind, her right hand first felt a sharp pain that was unbearable, and then a refreshing warm current surged out.
The sharp pain was like a sharp blade scraping bone, and also like frost invading the body, carrying a restless and chaotic feeling like swallowing and destruction.
But the warm current was like spring breeze turning into rain, sweeping through her limbs and bones in an instant, washing away all the desires surging in the bottom of her heart. She only felt her spirit platform was clear, and her whole body was transparent and relaxed as never before.
Hua Changxi subconsciously looked down, and her pupils shrank violently.
She saw that on the back of her hand, a black and white intertwined Yin-Yang fish pattern had actually appeared.
The black fish was like the angry waves of the abyss, the ink color was so thick that it couldn't be dissolved, occupying most of the field of vision, emitting a heart-palpitating and eerie momentum.
Looking at the white fish, it appeared pale and powerless, the light was shallow and weak, and the lines were broken and scattered, as if it would be completely swallowed by the darkness beside it at any time, making it difficult to form.
Looking at the black and white fish patterns, Hua Changxi's eyes trembled violently, and her heart was shocked. She immediately closed her eyes and looked inward, her divine sense sinking into her dantian.
The next moment, she saw that in the black flames on the heart of the Nascent Soul, countless white sparks were shining.
It's just that the black flames swayed, and the white sparks were quickly covered up.
Hua Changxi opened her eyes, looked at the black and white fish patterns that also disappeared on the back of her hand, and her thoughts surged.
She remembered that previously in the Forbidden Land of the Ghost Territory, when she had unhesitatingly stepped in to save someone, she had also felt a warm current sweep through her entire body.
It was just that the warm current appeared too suddenly and disappeared too quickly, so that she had no memory of it afterwards.
Combining the situations where the warm current appeared twice, Hua Changxi seemed to understand a little bit about how to ignite the white flames.
It not only requires the giving and dedication of compassion, but also the fearlessness and responsibility of carrying a thousand pounds. To put it plainly, it is the legendary pure altruistic heart that completely abandons private desires and does not calculate gains and losses!
If this is really the case, then Hua Changxi has found the reason why she has always been unable to ignite the white flames.
Altruistic heart without calculating gains and losses, sorry, she really doesn't have it, and doesn't want to have it!
However, Hua Changxi thought of the group of cultivators cultivated by the imperial family who ignited the black and white flames, and was confused again—she didn't have an altruistic heart without calculating gains and losses, did those people have it?
"I must have thought wrong."
The trigger for igniting the white flames still needs to be explored.
Afterwards, Hua Changxi did not stay at the bottom of the spring, collected some crystal stones (vitality stones) full of vitality power at the bottom of the spring and put them into the Sumeru space, and then took the two Spring Eye Beads and broke through the water.
After going ashore, she prepared to try to return the same way.
However, before that, she wanted to fly to a high place to see the full picture of Pill Spring.
As her body rose from the ground and soared rapidly, the range within Hua Changxi's sight gradually expanded.
If Tang Valley is a rock valley like a volcano, then Pill Spring is like a flat wilderness, flat and vast.
"Hmm?"
As her figure continued to climb, Hua Changxi looked into the distance, and the full picture of Pill Spring was in full view, and the end of the vision hid even more shocking scenes.
At the extreme east of Pill Spring, a huge rift valley that seemed to be split by a god's blade spanned heaven and earth, tearing the earth apart.
Further east from the rift valley, it was the bottomless pitch-black void, as if even light was completely swallowed. Although it was very far away, she still felt that the area was definitely a forbidden zone for life.
And a thousand miles west of Pill Spring, she actually saw a towering giant city wall, entrenched on the horizon like a steel dragon, drawing a clear and solemn boundary under the dark and eerie starry sky.
"Is that... where the array center is?"
Zhenmen Fort and Genmen Fort guarding the array eye are located in the due east and northeast directions of Pill Spring, respectively. The city walls of the fortresses are far from being as tall and strict as the city wall in the west.
Just as Hua Changxi was looking at Zhongmen Pass, Chu Junyi on the city wall of Zhongmen Pass seemed to feel something and looked toward Pill Spring quickly.
"General, did you discover something?"
"Someone is peeping at Zhongmen Pass."
"Is there an enemy situation?"
"It shouldn't be, the peeping gaze comes from the location of the Pill Saint Hall array eye."
"The joint auction of the Nine Pass Ghost Market is about to be held, and the Pill Saint Hall will definitely send people. It is estimated that some disciple who doesn't know how to restrain himself is exploring in all directions."
Chu Junyi thought of the joint auction of the Nine Pass Ghost Market, and his expression became solemn: "Recently, there must be many cultivators going down to the nine underworlds. All pass fortresses must pay attention, and we cannot let the demon race and the various races of the nine underworlds take the opportunity to make trouble."
"Yes."
Just at this time, Chu Junyi's One-Thought Communication vibrated. He picked it up and looked at it, his eyes lit up, he looked at the direction of the Pill Saint Hall array eye, and took a few confidants to go down the city wall quickly.
"General, what's wrong?"
"There is news about the Soul Realm key."
"Really, where is it?"
"Ghost Realm Fort."
On the other side, after Hua Changxi looked at the layout of Pill Spring and its surroundings, she didn't look any further, turned back to the place where she had landed before, soared into the air again, and tried to return along the original path to the Divine Tree space and go back to the square old courtyard.
Falling down is easy, but going up is difficult.
Fortunately, Hua Changxi's body refining level was high enough, and after erupting the blood and Qi of her whole body to impact, she finally stood on the divine tree root system again with difficulty.
At the same time, in the old courtyard, because Hua Changxi closed the courtyard gate, Seeing Gu Xing couldn't go out and could only stand at the courtyard gate, communicating with other people in the holy land through the door panel.
"Old Gu, Pavilion Master Meng took the secret realm masters to the nine underworlds to participate in the Nine Pass Joint Auction."
"Hmm."
Just as he was talking to someone here, Seeing Gu Xing saw that the wall facing the courtyard gate rippled like water waves, and the next second, Hua Changxi's figure stepped out from it, appearing in his line of sight.
