Chapter 237: 【The Necessity of the Great Tribulation, It Is Time】

This kind of infection, some people can perceive, such as Song Wuming.

Although he does not have a Dao Seed, he fused with Lu Runping's essence and blood, and also obtained the imprint of the Supernatural Power 【Glazed Pure Fire】; he perceived this thing, the evil thoughts, in an instant.

He had discovered it before, specifically that time when E Nian Mo Luo released evil thoughts.

But he did not pay it any mind at the time, because the moment the evil thoughts were born, they were extinguished by the Pure Fire, and they would not cause him any influence at all.

But this time is different; when a thing happens a second time, it is absolutely not a coincidence, but has its inevitability—there must be something controlling all of this.

After perceiving the existence of this thing, he immediately looked at Huo Miaolan, who was to the side.

Sure enough, on her body, he also sensed the aura of evil thoughts, including the several senior brothers and senior sisters around, who also had this aura on them.

However, for the time being, the influence of this evil thought on those with cultivation above the Fifth-Turn Profound Immortal is not yet very serious.

They themselves cannot yet perceive it; it has only produced a seed.

The vast majority of immortals, including most Profound Immortals and all True Immortals, cannot perceive the influence of this evil thought, because this thing is produced from within the true spirit—it is produced by your own emotions, so it will not produce any rejection, and naturally, it will not be perceived as having any abnormality.

Song Wuming realized that this thing was not right and immediately spoke to several senior brothers and senior sisters about it.

Yu Shilian spoke up:

"When we were in the lower realm, Master once said that this Great Tribulation was caused by a Great Luo Demon Immortal named E Nian Mo Luo; this thing should be his means, the means used to allow him to revive.

Master also said that if we are infected, there is no need to worry; when the time comes, Junior Brother, you will naturally help us resolve the trouble."

As the words fell, several people looked at Song Wuming.

Song Wuming was stunned upon hearing this; his own Master is merely a Taiyi Golden Immortal, yet he could calculate so many things. One must know that he himself is currently hidden from karma by the Treasure Mirror using the 【Heaven-Covering and Sun-Hiding】 Supernatural Power, and there is also the interference of the Lu Clan's immortal fortune; it is unlikely for even an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal to calculate some of his information.

That this Master could actually calculate it is truly strange!

But it does not matter; if it is calculated, then it is calculated. Things have not reached that stage yet, and the things calculated should also be limited.

Song Wuming nodded and said:

"I will help you remove the evil thoughts right now, but my question is, should I warn others or resolve the trouble for them?"

Second Senior Sister Xiang Siyu spoke up:

"No need. Regarding this matter, it is enough for only us few to know. E Nian Mo Luo affects the entire Dixian Jie; those who are not our fellow sect members, you have no obligation to help them. If you help one person, all the others will blame you for not helping them.

The evil thoughts of those people will eventually fall upon you."

Hearing these words, Song Wuming was suddenly awakened, and he nodded, saying:

"Thank you, Senior Sister, for your guidance. I almost went astray."

One of the most important principles of the Dixian Jie is to avoid karma as much as possible; whether it is accumulating merit through good deeds or committing many evil deeds, neither is advisable. Protecting oneself is what one should do.

With the entanglement of karma, perhaps you help one person, and because he has a huge karma, you get dragged into it; in the end, the one who dies is not him, but you.

For any matter that involves the karma of others, one must learn to refuse.

The wisest way to handle affairs is to turn a deaf ear, turn a blind eye, and escape into the deep mountains.

Once one has ascended to the Jiuchongtian, this is the very principle.

It is not that Song Wuming did not know this, but he just did not understand it clearly for a moment. Many times, it is like this: there is a significant gap between knowing a principle and understanding the connection between that principle and a certain event.

Everything requires one to realize it for oneself.

Subsequently, Song Wuming used the Glazed Pure Fire to treat Huo Miaolan and the others.

They naturally discovered that the means Song Wuming used were exactly the same as the means used by that Lingming Zhenxian.

But none of them asked; they asked nothing at all.

Regarding the matter of this Junior Brother, Yu Shilian and Xiang Siyu had once heard Yitong Jianxian say that he is involved in great karma; what they need to do is treat him as an ordinary fellow sect member, and there is no need to ask about other things—the more one knows, the worse it is instead.

This principle, for the two who have practiced for so long, is naturally understood, so they did not ask anything back, just waiting for everything to happen.

Song Wuming helped his fellow sect members remove the influence of evil thoughts, while those one hundred thousand immortals were controlled by evil thoughts; after just a short hour, more than ten thousand immortals had fallen, and a massive amount of tribulation power dissipated along with them.

But the tribulation power remained very vast, requiring the death of more people or other ways to bear this force.

Otherwise, the tribulation would continue, and furthermore, it would be even more intense!

But in reality, not many people cared about the life or death of the two hundred thousand immortals; the battle between Lingming Zhenxian and the White Snake Immortal was the focus of everyone's attention.

Battles between Taiyi Golden Immortals are not common, especially since this represents the battle between the disciples of two top-tier factions; the means displayed are all very shocking to people.

Observing the battles of the strong is a way of realizing the Dao.

In the battles of Golden Immortals, every gesture and movement will stir the Dao Rhyme; at this time, if one's eyesight is sufficient, one can perceive this Dao Rhyme and obtain some self-improvement.

The White Snake Immortal's fighting style looks very singular—it is all kinds of white silk ribbons, released one after another, like giant pythons swallowing the sky, tearing toward Lingming Zhenxian.

If it were just one, it might seem like nothing, but if the whole sky is like this, forming an ocean composed of pythons, what kind of terror and despair is that?

In fact, every white silk ribbon looks very beautiful; the white silk ribbons transformed from immortal spiritual energy are very beautiful, but if you become the target of her attack, even the most beautiful thing will make your hair stand on end!

As for Lingming Zhenxian, he used many kinds of means.

One could see him divide into many figures, and each figure had three heads and six arms; each arm simply extended one finger.

This is a combination of the Supernatural Powers 【Fractal Phantom】, 【Three Heads and Six Arms】, and 【Universe Finger】.

Such a way of fighting seems very powerful, breaking through various attacks one by one; in fact, in Song Wuming's view, this is completely unnecessary.

He only needed to activate the 【Standing Without Shadow】 Supernatural Power, and the White Snake Immortal could not possibly attack Lingming Zhenxian; his way of meeting the battle like this is deliberately dragging out the time.

The White Snake Immortal is also dragging out the time.

The thoughts of the two are identical, and that is to let the immortals below die a bit more.

This Great Tribulation, after all, requires people to bear it, whether it is now or in the future; now, it is the time.
