Yuanshen: The sea of ​​sand at the beginning, straight to the seat of God

Chapter 296 294-Goodbye

In any case, the threshold has indeed been crossed.

With extra caution, Rama carefully peered into the world behind the door.

He still wants to get on the right track as planned as soon as possible, and then get more powerful power.

The time it took for Kong to go from being held down and beaten by two debt handlers to facing off against a demon-level skirmisher was too short, and it was completely obvious that his strength curve had not yet entered a flattening stage. , there is still quite a period of linear rise.

In a way, the strength of the protagonist often corresponds to the difficulty of the story itself.

Sora obviously does not have the ability to push through everything equally. Most of his victories in the plot require some extra strength.

Inazari's battle against Raikage relied on Yae Kamiko's plan. The confrontation between Xumi and the skirmishers relies on the information Nasida obtained from her dreams, and the story of Fontaine... The story of Fontaine actually does not have many scenes related to the sky. The entire Fontaine The plot is mainly left to Funina, Fukalos behind Funina, and Navilet chosen by Fukalos.

Although Sora's role is there, but whether it is really important, it is actually not very important.

As far as the plot is concerned, the only thing he has done well is to solve the serial disappearance of girls, find the truth of the matter, catch the real murderer and help Navia's father clear his name.

Then the rest of the story actually has nothing to do with him.

The protagonist of Fontaine is Navilette. The real trouble is that Navilette is trying to turn the tide, and Fukalos gives Navilette a BUFF so that he can turn the tide.

Vacher's case cannot be said to be insignificant to a country, but the losses are indeed not huge.

Of course, this is a victory for humanity, and making a scumbag who made a mistake pay the price is also a good thing that deserves praise.

In Xumi's plot, Sora has the strength to face off against Ascension's skirmishers. When it comes to Fontaine, his strength should have reached a new stage. Unfortunately, the battle scenes left for Sora in Fontaine's plot are really Too little, leaving little room for his newly acquired power to be used.

However, Rama firmly believed that this power would be useful sooner or later, and the benefits it brought to things like becoming stronger were being demonstrated all the time.

But Kong grows too fast. If he can't catch up with Kong's growth rate, this means that Rama will soon become a straw wife in trouble - at the critical moment, using the so-called people's will to give DEBUFF on BOSS.

This is the only function and value of the background board.

"So I should become stronger as soon as possible? Because even if I'm cheated, there's still a real deadbeat in this world who's not inferior to me or even surpasses me?"

Rama was speechless.

He was somewhat panicked, even afraid of his expected plan.

Rama had to admit that this success frightened him far more than any previous failure, so much so that he even began to fear his pursuit of power.

Am I still under the attention of some people? Have my plans been affected by theirs and I'm still a pawn in someone's hands?

Rama already had such doubts, but he had not experienced such a loss at that time, so he could easily muster the courage to continue working in the direction he wanted.

True bravery is actually very difficult. Most bravery can only be said to be ignorant and fearless.

Now that Rama knew it, He could no longer take risks as before.

Of course Nasita noticed Rama's reluctance.

He didn't think there was any big problem with Rama's behavior. It was normal for him to feel shy and doubtful when he encountered such a fate.

But He did not want Rama to remain depressed like this, so He found a person who could inspire Rama.

"You seem to have changed." Kong looked at Rama.

"Have you become stronger?" Rama asked casually.

He has completed the journey to become a god. As a young demon god, his power is still growing stronger without stopping.

He doesn't need to do anything, as long as he lives, his blood will automatically push him to a higher place.

Kong shook his head and said, "No, he has become weaker."

"You seem to have lost your ambition and are no longer planning to take risks."

Rama was not embarrassed by being exposed. Instead, he smiled and asked, "Is it obvious?"

He felt that his concealment was pretty good, but Sora had already discovered all this just by looking at him.

"It's obvious." Kong pursed his lips, "Every action you took before had an obvious purpose. For this purpose, you always acted with impatience."

"But now you seem to have succeeded. After you succeed, you no longer have this urgency."

"You said I succeeded, but you think I became weaker?" Rama sighed, "This doesn't seem to make sense."

He succeeded in his pursuit of power, but Sora thought that Rama had become weak.

"Because this power is indeed very weak." Kong said bluntly, "You know a lot of things that I don't know, and I still need your help, so I will try my best to stimulate your ambition."

"When you are ambitious, you will give me the rewards I want because you want to use me to do things."

He actually knows everything.

An adventurer who travels between worlds becomes accustomed to most of its things.

He doesn't say anything or refuses to be used, not because he is stupid, but because he also gets what he wants through this use and entrustment.

"Please speak." Rama looked serious.

"You don't need me to tell you. You know this truth better than anyone else, so you are so ambitious." Kong shook his head, "We have met in many countries. If it wasn't because you wanted to, why would you be here?" What about adventures in these places?”

"Isn't the status and identity you have obtained now enough for you to live your life safely and happily?"

"You have chosen to take the risk, how could you not know what you want?"

The great sage of Xumi, how could this identity not be able to support a mortal's lifelong happy life?

If a person has become successful and can live a stable life but still chooses to move forward, even at the risk of death, it is of course because he still wants something more, and these things can be better than what he already has. Everything in life is more important.

Rama was not taught, but He still bowed and thanked, "I have been taught."

This truth is extremely shallow. Rama himself knew it and did not need anyone to remind him.

But that's the way it is, it doesn't mean that you can solve this problem well just because you know the truth.

Rama is not ignorant of the truth, he is just afraid of what has happened and what may be happening.

"You're right about strength, at least."

Being teachable does not mean that I will change. It only means that I know you are right, but there is no absolute relationship between you being right and me wanting to listen to you.

Nasita could also say the same thing, and Rama's answer was also enlightened, but he would not listen to it very well.

But the person who said this is Kong. This sentence is said by Kong, which means it is more effective than others.

"If I am satisfied with the power I already have, why not?" Rama looked at the sky and said, "As you said, I already have everything a mortal wants."

The power of the demon god level is certainly not enough to be seen in front of the sky island and the world outside these wall-hanging twins.

But if Rama was willing to be a mortal and live forever in the circle of mortals in Devat, He would certainly be satisfied.

In a way, he would be more comfortable than Zhongli is now.

Because while he has the power of a demon, he does not know any in-depth secrets. In addition, he is the great sage of Sumeru. A demon who has strength and power himself and knows no secrets can of course live happily.

This is what Zhongli has already experienced. Now he avoids power and relies on the salary from the Hall of Rebirth.

To be honest, this kind of life of handing bills to the boss at any time is really cool, but it is certainly impossible to say that he can live a better life than Qixing now - just considering the living conditions themselves.     “But these are not enough, far from enough.”

Rama said, “What I have, they are not the things I pursue, but the by-products of what I pursue.”

“This is something I believed in before I mobilized the sand sea to rebel against the rainforest, and I still believe it today.”

Appearing as a saint before others is a principle that can support almost everything.

Kong was very serious: "So you should not stay any longer. You know this very well. Ordinary people's lives have their own fun. In addition, not everyone has the conditions like you and me to pursue a better life."

"I don't belittle or belittle mortal life, but I still want to say that if you want to retain your choice in everything, then you can only take this path."

So it has to be said in vain to be more convincing.

"I understand." Rama just nodded.

Not because of power, but because he himself is the best material and sample.

If there is a person in this world, and all his actions are the plans of others, then this person must be empty.

Kong embarked on a journey after waking up five hundred years later. He didn't know what happened back then, nor what happened to his sister, nor how he suddenly appeared on the land of Mondstadt after being sealed.

He didn't know why he could gain elemental power by contacting the Seven Heavenly Gods, and he didn't know why there would be big news everywhere he went.

Rama already knew that the first half of his life and possibly the second half were planned by others.

And all of Sora's choices so far have been shrouded in mystery.

What makes him more trapped than Rama is that he still doesn't know what happened back then. He only knows that he was pressed to the ground with one hand and rubbed. The other party took his sister and sealed his power, and then again Miraculously giving him the opportunity and power to walk in Teyvat.

This alone made him extremely sure that he was still under the control of the other party - otherwise the other party had already sealed him, why not just kill him directly?

The two went up together, and the maintainer also held down the two of them with one hand.

He couldn't beat him even if he wasn't sealed, but he survived even though he was sealed. Of course Sora knew there must be something wrong with this.

With doubts, he is still walking on the continent of Teyvat, pursuing a truth.

So it must be empty.

The truth of what you say is first of all whether people understand it or not. What you say makes sense, not because the words themselves make sense, but because the person who speaks makes everyone recognize the truth.

His experience is such that he has a far better say than Rama in terms of being manipulated.

And he is still working hard without giving up. This alone makes him qualified to persuade Rama to continue to persevere.

Unfortunately, Rama did not accept it.

He admitted that what Kong said made sense, then thanked him, and finally told him that I understand and you can leave now.

Sora was silent for a moment, then turned and left.

He didn't prepare much rhetoric, but this kind of thing actually doesn't require much rhetoric.

Rama was not ignorant of the truth. He understood this but still chose to stop. Then there was no way to persuade him.

You can't ask a person whose life is already happy or even complete to force him to fight for something.

Working hard is never the purpose. A person working hard is to get something to make his life happy. Strength, wealth and power, these things have the same purpose. They will make you more comfortable when facing troubles. Make some choices to reduce your losses and increase your profits. Gaining is the purpose of all actions.

If he is willing to be satisfied with what he has got, of course you can scold him for being short-sighted... But it is not an unforgivable mistake for a person to be content and happy.

What's more, Rama's situation really cannot be considered as contented and happy.

How can you criticize Him for being wrong if He has too many things and very few things that He does not have, and is therefore satisfied?

He has the power of the demon god and the power of the great sage. Almost everything is his, and he has all the power, wealth and beauty in his hands. The only difference is the right to choose at the moment when his destiny is truly decided.

But there are not many such options.

When it comes to the world, there are only a few people who have the right to make choices throughout the ages. There are only so many [Dragon Kings] recognized by Phanes and the seven dragons as leading the resistance war... Just a great god.

As he left, Sora paused.

He looked back at Jingshan Palace, and Paimon next to him asked cautiously: "Are you a little disappointed?"

She actually didn't know how to describe the relationship between Kong and Rama. It couldn't be said to be taking advantage, because for the same commission, Rama gave more chips than any other god.

She and Sora met the three rulers, but whether it was Barbatos or Morax, what they gave at the end of the commission was almost not what Sora wanted.

What he wants is not where he should go to the next place or what is in the next place... none of these are important, he just wants the truth.

Only Rama gave something about the truth, and although he was also a Riddler, he did give enough reward.

"No, I don't look down on anyone's way of life," Kong shook his head, "What's more, Rama didn't say a word, but he and I both knew it."

Could it be that if you work hard, you will definitely get a chance to fight against your fate?

This is not a failure, so there is no way to respond with "How do you know your destiny can't be changed if you don't work hard?"

At least Sora doesn't know yet how he should face the maintainer.

In terms of strength, he was easily defeated at the time and is still at the same level now.

Even if he collects all seven elements, Sora doesn't think he can win.

Elemental power is Teyvat's rule, and the other party is obviously the maker of Teyvat's rules. If you play a game with the other party within the other party's rules, the probability of winning is naturally very slim.

Sora himself admitted that no matter how hard he tried, he might not be a match for the maintainer. Naturally, he could not refute Rama's reasons for stagnating.

There is really no point in trying hard.

If you can't beat him, you just can't beat him. Even if you are a Shilipo swordsman and practice hard for decades, you still can't beat him.

No matter how many opportunities or time Heulia is given, he is no match for Morax. As the Demon God of Salt, his power is naturally much inferior to Morax.

Teyvat doesn't believe that man can conquer nature. The last one who thought this way, Kanria, now has grass growing on their graves, not to mention that their graves have been dug up by someone, and they don't even have a resting place now.

Sora was silent for a moment, and then he recalled the days of traveling with Yingmei, and the expression on his face became much gentler.

"Let's go." He said, "Whether I can win or not is a matter of the future. I only know that my brother has to protect his sister."

"I have to find her before I have to think about more things."

A brother who has lost his sister, what other options are there?

Victory or defeat, crisis, these are all trivial matters.

I have to find my lost sister first, and then I have to think about unnecessary things.

My sister is gone, so there is no point in thinking about plots and plots, or about winning without fighting.

Rama in the Jingshan Palace watched him leave without saying a word to stop him, and he couldn't seem to be touched in any way. He just kept the last silence.

After a while, when the figure completely disappeared from Xumi City, he softly said goodbye.
