Chapter 1445, Li Erzhidao

(PS: This is not Lao Tzu in the traditional sense, nor morality in the traditional sense, nor Tai Chi in the traditional sense. To be precise, everyone knows that I like magic reform, as long as it is reasonable magic reform, isn’t it? ?There is an infinite primordial, then there is also an infinite Laozi and Tai Chi, don’t disturb.)
Li Er carefully dragged his lame leg and walked among the chaotic rocks.

Since coming to this so-called bloody battlefield, Li Er has changed too much.

First of all, it is naturally a change in thinking. In the past, Li Er was the kind who was cautious and cautious. He would never take risks if he could not take risks. At the same time, he avoided any actions or words that might bring danger. Li Er will resolutely educate and even teach him a lesson if he discusses matters about the guerrillas.

Because he has witnessed too many deaths, Li Er is really very cowardly, even when his lover is taken away as a poll tax, he can finally endure it.

Li Er felt that he was already dead long ago, and the only thing that kept him alive physically was because he couldn't let go of his two younger brothers.

But it wasn't until he fell into this bloody place that Li Er knew that no one wanted to die. He was stubborn and cowardly, but it was only because he was really a coward, he was afraid of death, and he wanted to live. He was such a despicable person. Yes, a person who makes people feel disgusting and can be cast aside... It is because he is afraid of death that he watched his relatives being taken away as a poll tax, and it is because he is afraid of death that he survived in the tribe until the end, because he I am always grateful that the next person to die will not be him, but someone else...

It wasn't until he landed in this place of bloody battle, facing life and death, that he really understood what kind of person he was. He wanted to live, because once he died, there would be nothing left.

After the skeleton left, Li Er also left the place where he fell. According to the last statement of the skeleton, new undead creatures will be born in this place from time to time. Those undead creatures do not necessarily have memories. It's all about killing instinct.

After leaving this area, Li Er came to an area of ​​piles of rocks and stone pillars, where he encountered some short but nimble creatures attacking him.

The body of this creature is greenish-gray, only about one meter tall, and it has no eyes, only the sense of hearing is very sensitive, but in this extremely dark underground area, the function of the eyes is not as useful as the sense of hearing, so when Li Er encountered When he came to this creature, he was ambushed by this creature with a wooden spear, which stabbed him in the thigh.

Fortunately, this creature is very weak, even if it hurt Li Er first, Li Er also killed this creature in the subsequent hand-to-hand combat, using the stones he picked up on the ground.

After that, Li Er ate the creature, and at the same time, he felt stronger.

It's not that eating the creature makes him stronger, it's that he becomes stronger when he kills the creature.

This is completely in contrast to what the skeleton said.

In this land of bloody battles, killing, killing any creature other than yourself, all of these will bring about stronger, this is the feedback given by the land of bloody battles, and it is also the temptation to kill each other in the land of bloody battles bait.

Even if Li Er is a human being, this kind of strengthening is still effective, killing, becoming stronger, devouring...

Since then, Li Er has turned into a hunter again, even if he is only a mere human being, even if he still has injuries, but he is patient and wise, and this place of bloody battle is too big, the bloody battle has not yet fully started, All races are still preparing for a decisive battle, so on the edge of the bloody battle, there are still many weak creatures that accidentally entered the bloody battle, including animals, weak ten thousand races, and some wandering monsters.

Li Er himself knows hunting skills. He wanders around the edge of the land, setting traps, and making weapons out of stones, branches, vines, etc. He is cautious and patient enough, and the weak creatures on the edge of the bloody battle , They often don't have much intelligence, and the same is true of those weak and ten thousand races, so Li Er has hunted at least hundreds of such creatures these days, and his strength has initially entered the level of first-order extraordinary, but he does not have any extraordinary Energy is just stronger, faster, and more resilient.

During this period, the skeleton came two more times. It was surprised that Li Er was still alive, and he had become a quasi-transcendent, or an alien, even if he was weak enough to be beaten by any first-order superhuman. , but indeed touched the edge of the extraordinary and became a veritable alien.

And Li Er also knew the names of the ten thousand races or weak monsters he hunted from the mouth of the skeleton. For example, the green-gray eyeless dwarf creature was a kind of weak underground ten thousand races called cavemen, and Most of the monsters he hunted were extremely weak creatures.

But regardless of the ten thousand races, although those monsters are weak, they are monsters anyway. Some organs on their bodies, or magic crystals are still somewhat useful, and the skeletons took these things away. At that time, I got a crossbow for Li Er, twenty crossbow bolts, plus a fine steel dagger, and a bottle of healing potion that can quickly heal injuries after drinking.

At the same time, the skeleton also told Li Er that the decisive battle is coming, because the signs of the revival of the holy gods have appeared, and all races can no longer wait. It is believed that as long as the land of bloody battle is occupied, then the land of bloody battle can open the space leading to the location world, and they must go to the material world before the revival of the holy gods.

Creatures on the non-lower planes were also stimulated by the news that the holy gods were about to recover. The careerists, or in order to make their holy gods recover faster, also mobilized a large number of troops to enter the bloody battle ground in vain. To win in this place of bloody battles, one must either become a holy god himself, or directly revive their holy gods.

This is a decisive battle on an extremely terrifying scale. The skeleton doesn't even know what the direction of this war will be. After all, in its words, it is just a middle-level intelligent and extraordinary undead creature. To know so much, in fact Thanks to its immediate boss, a demilich with a big mouth, that's why he knew about it.

Once the decisive battle comes, although the entire bloody battlefield is huge, there will be no safe place. At that time, the entire battlefield will be turned into a fighting place, even in the fringe areas.

"...The most terrifying lower plane is the bottomless abyss. No one knows how many layers the bottomless abyss has. There are densely packed demons and other distorted creatures in it. The number is calculated in trillions. This time, the abyssal demons decided to bloodbath the bloody battle The number of battlefields may be so large that they can drown the entire battlefield of bloody battles."

"Besides the bottomless abyss, Bator Hell is also an extremely terrifying place. Although the number of devils is far less than that of demons, they are experts in warfare. Even the weakest devils are the most elite soldiers on the battlefield. Their The order is so severe that it is terrifying, and when fighting the abyssal demons, they can even fight against a thousand, and this time it is estimated that they will come out in full force."

"Also, the Abi Demon City where I am located is the location of the underworld of the lower plane. It is extremely vast inside, and there is a land of death that cannot be explored at all. In the depths of this land of death, I don't know how many people are buried and sleeping There are billions of undead creatures. It is said that undead creatures have appeared among them since the birth of life. We are the opposite of life. As many lives die, there are as many undead creatures born among them. The number is probably more than that of the abyssal demons. This time, they will also go out to cleanse the Angel Race and all positive energy creatures."

"In addition, the angel race and the positive energy beings in the heavens seem to have formed an alliance. They claim to purify the entire bloody battle field, and they seem to have formed a terrifying and huge alliance."

"In addition to these, the elements of the elemental plane also have to eliminate their old enemies on this bloody battlefield. The fire element is against the water element, and the wind element is against the earth element. Their number is almost endless. As long as there are four elements of earth, wind, water and fire If the universe exists, then they can be born almost endlessly. At the same time, in addition to the basic four elemental creatures, there are also some mutant elements. They hate their orthodox compatriots. Elemental shot."

"Not to mention the gray dwarves, drow and other despicable guys in the underground world, they are like poisonous snakes lurking in the dark, as long as you are careless, their daggers will stab you from the back of the head..."

"So...become stronger as soon as possible, and then find an underground shelter that is sufficiently concealed and strong enough, otherwise you will be turned into a wisp of ashes on this battlefield as soon as this decisive battle begins, and you will never be seen again. You exist."

This is the last warning from the skeleton. Since then, the skeleton has never appeared again, and Li Er also knows the urgency of time, and he also feels a certain sense of urgency in the dark, a feeling that permeates his heart. His anxiety and anxiety kept telling him that time was running out.

So Li Er also accelerated the hunting, as well as the investigation of the fringe area of ​​the bloody battlefield.

Perhaps it was because Li Er saw himself clearly after going through life and death, or because of the specialness of this place, Li Er always had a vague feeling that this bloody battlefield was calling him.

As Li Er hunted and killed more and more weak and weak races, wild animals, or weak magical beasts, his sense of this call became stronger, and he even seemed to be able to see black and white phantoms appearing from time to time. In front of him, it was a certain existence that he could not observe, sense, or know. Li Er even saw the entire universe from this black and white, that kind of feeling that he just knew it was the universe but couldn't describe it. .

Li Er also asked the skeleton about this question. After pondering for a long time, the skeleton replied that this is some kind of mark, or that he has been targeted by the bloody battlefield. Unless this bloody battle is completely over, he will never be able to Leaving this battlefield ahead of time, he has been recognized by the bloody battle battlefield as a member of this bloody battle, but this is not a good thing,

The battlefield of bloody battles is conscious. This kind of consciousness is similar to that of the various planes of the lower plane. It is a terrifying and distorted general consciousness. The battlefield of bloody battles will attract all creatures to fight to the end. Strong, and some creatures have extremely strong willpower and will not be easily affected. Even if they are in this bloody battlefield, they will restrain themselves and avoid too many killings to avoid their own depravity.

But the more willpower a creature has, the more it will improve this space when it dies on the bloody battlefield.

That's right, the bloody battle space is not a dead thing in the true sense, it has some kind of life, so it will lure the life that enters the bloody battle field to fight each other, use the power to increase the temptation, if the opponent's will can restrain , then it will be mentally confused, which is similar to what Li Er is experiencing now.

This made Li Er more cautious, more careful when hunting, and more ruthless in his methods.

Because Li Er has already figured it out, the first need of all life is actually survival, even the so-called undead life is the same, it is just a difference in the form of life, but regardless of the form of life, intelligence is the first basic core of life , and the first need of intelligence is existence, if intelligence does not exist, then life itself will be meaningless.

Because of this, when Li Er faces his prey, no matter how pitiful or innocent it looks, as long as he chooses it as the prey, unless it is a human being, but that is almost impossible, he will kill it without hesitation, and even use it to kill it. It was used as a bait to kill the existence of the same race. During the hunting during this period, Li Er did this several times.

There are some weak ten thousand races, and some weak wild animals, they are not Li Er's opponents, especially in the case of mental arithmetic and unintentional.

"The first need of life is to be alive. There is no right or wrong in killing at this moment, because only living can have everything. This is a natural choice. All lives that do not obey this natural law have all disappeared."

This is Li Er's comprehension. In this place of bloody battles, after every hunting and killing, besides his physical strength, there are also these various comprehensions appearing in his heart. This is something that has never happened before.

Li Er found that he began to become strange. He began to pay attention to a series of things or things that he had never paid attention to before, such as life, death, and the relationship between nature and so on. This made Li Er himself very strange, and every time he When he had a similar feeling, the black and white world appeared in front of his eyes, but it seemed to be black and white, or black and white, but when he looked closely, it was a chaos, neither black nor white , and they are attacking each other, and they are also incompatible with each other.

Then today, something happened to Li Er. When he was hunting in the dark, he saw a human being heading towards the trap area he had set up. He came out rashly, but followed secretly.

This is a miserable human female, she looks young, with scars all over her body, bruises, cuts, and punctures, but these scars are not fatal, she staggered towards the trap area , There is always blood flowing behind him.

Seeing that this human woman was about to enter the trap area, Li Er couldn't bear it and rushed out from the darkness. As soon as he grabbed the human woman, he was about to lead her into the dark place. He arranged three The simple shelter has food, and some herbs he found. He can give her shelter and food, and he can also treat her injuries.

But at this moment, this female human grabbed Li Er, and threw herself on Li Er, entangled him to death, and at the same time shouted loudly, "I got it, I got it." Immediately afterwards, a group of cave dwellers rushed over from a distance Humans, goblins, and two tall gnolls.

These are basically the objects that Li Er usually hunts, but once the number increases, it is impossible for him to match them.

The situation was very urgent at that time, Li Er almost escaped, and once the cavemen and other ten thousand races approached, there were dozens of these ten thousand races could easily tear Li Er to pieces.

And Li Er also paid the price. In order to grab him, the human woman used her fingernails, teeth, hands and feet together, and she was really merciless. Going to bite his throat, although Li Er escaped, he was covered in scars all over his body, even in his heart.

Afterwards, Li Er carefully tracked and investigated the movements of those low-level ten thousand races. Finally, he found a half-eaten human skeleton in an abandoned camp of low-level ten thousand races. Judging from the body shape, this skeleton was a woman. , and the height is the same as the woman Li Er planned to save at that time. The most important thing is that there is a child beside her, a very small child, probably the bones of a three or four-year-old child, no, it is a bone, Bones without even a sliver of meat...

Both she and the child were eaten.

What exactly happened, why this human woman helped Wanzu to hunt him down, and what other things happened in the end, Li Er didn't actually know. The only thing he knew was that this human compatriot tried to make him It fell into the hands of Wanzu, but failed in the end, but Wanzu regarded this human compatriot as food, and the child was eaten at the same time...

"...Good and evil do not have a clear dividing line. The so-called good and evil are just the camps that each life decides from its own standpoint."

Li Er buried the two corpses. He thought a lot in front of the graves of the corpses, but in the end he couldn't come up with a definite answer.

In other words, if there are no questions, how can there be answers?

Afterwards, Li Er relentlessly followed this low-level ten-thousand race team, and spent nearly ten days hunting and killing them all. When he killed the last jackal in the team, Li Er ate the wolf man. He suddenly seemed to understand something.

"All of these are actually natural choices, or life must have choices in nature."

"If you want to live, you must kill. Plants are also life, but because they don't have intelligence, no one thinks there is anything wrong with eating plants. Animals have weak intelligence, so killing animals is a fight between life, the weak eat the strong, But at the same time, the strong also have the negative accumulation of killing."

"To resolve such negativity, one must stand in the camp of goodness, even if it is just self-consolation, or self-deception to stand on the standpoint of goodness, so that all kinds of negative killings can be resolved, such as killing to live Go on, for example, hunting animals is for wives and children, for tribal people and so on.”

"Similarly, evil deeds and people who do evil are not completely evil. For example, if I kill these ten thousand races now, except that they threaten me, they are also revenge for the innocent lives in their hands."

"Myriad races are no different from human beings, but they are just the dividing line between strength and weakness. Similarly, the standpoint of good and evil is not different from that of us humans, but they are all standing on the standpoint of self-interest."

The thoughts in Li Er's mind kept rolling, everything in the past, everything he experienced now, all turned into various perceptions in his heart.

In Li Er's eyes, the black and white, but neither black nor white universe emerged again.

"Ask... are you good or evil?"

Li Er fell into a daze at this moment, he couldn't even think, he only had instinct.

"No, I don't belong to good or evil, I just belong to me." Li Er replied instinctively.

"Ask... do you want to be good?"

Li Er's instinct was about to answer, but at this moment, the bones of the human woman and a child that had been eaten up appeared in his mind, and then Li Er replied: "No, I don't want to be good..."

In an instant, in this non-black and non-white space, the part belonging to white suddenly began to retreat, and black seemed to be about to become the entirety of this space.

"Ask... do you want to be evil?"

Li Er's instinct didn't answer right away. Those ten thousand races appeared in his mind, not only the ten thousand races in this bloody battlefield, but also all the ten thousand races encountered in the material world and around the Li tribe, even the Hunt down their tribes in the forest of elves.

These ten thousand races are ferocious and terrifying. They are evil, but they are very powerful. Their strength is reflected in the fact that they can deprive human beings of everything at will, including life.

For power, Li Er is envious, because if he has enough power, his second and third brothers will not die, and he will not be left alone on this bloody battlefield. If he has power...

But if the price of gaining power is becoming evil...

Li Er seemed to appear beside a fire. With a ferocious smile, he roasted a human woman and a child until they were burnt yellow, and then devoured them...

"...No, I don't want to be evil..." Li Er instinctively replied again.

Still for a moment, in this peculiar cosmic space, both white and black appeared at the same time, they intertwined, attacked each other, and melted each other, but each other is endless, and each has great power. At this moment, Two unimaginably huge forces collided and bombed together. There was an extremely violent collision between white and black. Both white and black wanted to devour and digest each other. This universe seemed to be tearing apart. Chaos appears between black and white, and this chaos is destruction, and both white and black will be destroyed in it.

Li Er seemed to be in the middle of this white and black, the two blended with each other, and they were also pulling Li Er, as if trying to tear him apart, countless whispers rang in Li Er's ears.

"Good, good, good..."

"Evil, evil, evil..."

"If you don't kill people, people will kill you..."

"Power is everything, without power there is nothing..."

Li Er felt as if he had turned into countless copies, and each copy was torn out with the blending of white and black, and boundless pain came upon him. He felt that he was experiencing something more terrifying than death.

In this pain, Li Er's self is gradually annihilated, and various past images keep flickering and disappearing, and at the end of the image is when he tried to save the human woman, the human woman grabbed him and tore him apart. Biting him, poking his finger at his eyeballs, trying in vain to make Wanzu catch him...

At that time, because of the emergency, Li Er didn't take a closer look, but in the death replay at this time, he actually saw the woman's eyes.

She...was crying...

Then the crying eyes dissipated and dissipated, and the last scene was Li Er trapping the last jackal among the weak and ten thousand races, and then let the jackal struggle and beg for mercy, he just walked up silently The dagger pierced the Gnoll's throat.

The Gnoll's eyes were fragile in the end, no different from the countless tribesmen in the past when they were dying.

"Those who are good to me are good, those who hate me are evil, I don't want to be kind, and I don't want to be evil!!!"

"I figured it out, I figured it out, it's really too weak to decide my own good and evil, I..."

"I want to decide whether others are good or evil!!!"

Li Er suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were black and white, and the two gradually separated from the blending state, black is black, white is white, forming two halves of black and white, and with Li Er's words, the two halves of black and white The color is still changing gradually.

"Yeah, it's too passive to say that I'm good or evil. I'm good, so what? I'm not being bullied by tax collectors from all races, or driven into the lair of monsters by the forest elves who claim to be kind!!"

"If I say I am evil, then it's because I just watched the woman and child being killed and eaten, and I helped them avenge them during the hard pursuit, then this evil is too worthless! "

"So... I don't want to decide whether I am good or evil. I have to decide whether others are good or evil. Those who are kind to me are good, even if they are evil. I also say that there is good in evil, and those who hate me are evil. He is good, and I also say he is good with evil in it!"

"That's right, if you say you are good or evil, even if you say you are innocent forever! You have fallen to the bottom!!"

"So instead of saying that you are good or evil, and then trying to justify and convince yourself, it is better to override it from the beginning."

"I say you are good, you are good; I say you are evil, you are evil!"

"This is my way!"

This series of thoughts burst out from Li Er's mind, and a thunderbolt fell in the chaotic world, blasting the chaos, black and white were clearly distinguished, white rose, black sank, and then Li Er was in the center, followed by His thoughts gradually became complete, and as his words gradually fell, his thoughts and words turned into a golden bridge, vast and boundless, huge and infinite, and thus traversed between this black and white, and black and white revolved endlessly around this golden bridge, and then partly Black blends into white, and part of white blends into black. It looks like you have me in you, and you in me. Black and white form a circle like a fish, and gradually sink into nothingness under the pressure of Jinqiao middle.

Then Li Ermeng woke up, he looked left and right, but he didn't see the black and white, but at this moment he understood that the chaotic space that he saw during this period of time was not a bait for a bloody battlefield And attraction, but another even more incredible thing, that is a great opportunity hidden deep in the bloody battlefield!
A great opportunity that belongs to him alone!

One of the top ten innate spirit treasures...

Original name, Chaos Map!

"I see……"

Only then did Li Er feel the fear. In the space just now, he was almost obliterated by the chaotic map.

Li Er only knew that the chaotic map was the top ten innate spirit treasures, which was the information given to him by the chaotic map just now, but he didn't know what the top-level innate spiritual treasures were, and what the other nine pieces were. Knowing that this Chaos Map is the most explosive of the top ten innate spirit treasures, no one has ever controlled it since the beginning of the world.

Before Li Er, there were dozens of predestined people, and they all had the opportunity to obtain this chaotic map, but the origin of this chaotic map represents the initial chaotic binary choice since the multiverse was opened, whether you choose good or evil , or choose yin, or choose yang, or even choose good and evil, choose both yin and yang, and in the end you will be assimilated in the extreme good and evil, or the extreme cathode and yang. If you choose both, you will be directly assimilated by chaos. annihilated.

There has always been only one real choice, and that is neither good nor evil, nor yin nor yang.

Higher than both for the sake of both.

Instead of choosing, let me define and decide! !
"...So, it's up to me, no..."

Li Er looked into the distance. Although he couldn't see anything, he could imagine that in the darkness, in the wilderness, in this countless space, there were countless races.

"I will decide whether you are good or evil. Similarly, I will decide whether you will live or die..."

"That's right!"

Li Er laughed loudly, and then with a ferocious face, he murmured: "I will decide, wouldn't it be the best!"
