Seeking Immortality

Chapter 105. Fate and Choice (XI).

"Are you Zhang Xusheng?"

Xu Qingfan stared at the mysterious middle-aged scholar who suddenly appeared in front of him, and asked slowly, his voice was unexpectedly calm. Provide the latest chapter reading\u003e

Zhang Xusheng, this name already represents a

Even if you hate him, you must admit his unusualness. Even if you are irreconcilable with him, you must understand that his experience and development are themselves a legend that cannot be replicated.

Xu Qingfan has thought many times about what will happen after he meets Zhang Xusheng. Draw a sword against him? Argue with reason? Or turn around and run away? All the possibilities have been thought of, but he never thought that he would be treated so calmly. The high and mighty master, at this moment, seems to be just an equal existence in front of Xu Qingfan.

I am about to die, even if the person in front of him is Zhang Xusheng, what is there to be afraid of?

Zhang Xusheng looked at Xu Qingfan in front of him with interest. Xu Qingfan's eyes were calm and peaceful, without any falsehood.

Seeing Xu Qingfan like this, Zhang Xusheng no longer concealed his identity, smiled and nodded slightly, saying: "It is indeed me, how did you guess it?"

"There are definitely no more than ten people in the world with your strength, and there is only Zhang Xusheng in the world with your characteristics." Xu Qingfan looked directly into Zhang Xusheng's unfathomable eyes, without a trace of fear, and said lightly: "The most important thing is, you just said that you almost died twice not long ago, which reminded me of the battle that should have been over by now - the battle between my Righteous Alliance and Zhang Xusheng. Only the masters of the Righteous Alliance could have almost killed a master like you."

Zhang Xusheng nodded slightly. Said: "So that's it, I thought you still remembered my face."

Suddenly remembering something, Zhang Xusheng asked again: "By the way, the failed experiment under the dungeon in my base camp was released by you, right? And the Three Talents Formation, was it also destroyed by you, right?"

Xu Qingfan was slightly stunned. Asked: "How do you know?"

Zhang Xusheng smiled and said: "When the demon appeared, I guessed that it must be you who got in. But I didn't expect you to be able to cause so much damage. Those old guys of the Righteous Alliance were able to force me into a desperate situation this time. You deserve half of the credit. Haha, I have been scheming all my life, thinking that I have planned everything, but I didn't expect that I would fall into your hands."

"You shouldn't underestimate me."

As the conversation deepened, Xu Qingfan's mood became more peaceful. Turning his head and continuing to look at the sunset that seemed very close to him, he said lightly.

"Yes, I did underestimate you. Unknowingly, you have grown to this point, whether it is strength, mind, or perseverance."

Zhang Xusheng nodded in acknowledgement.

"I ruined your big plan. You should hate me. But I didn't feel Xu Qingfan suddenly said.

"Why should I hate you?" Zhang Xusheng shook his head. "Life is full of fun because of accidents. The fate that is all arranged by me is too boring. Although I failed this time and nearly died twice, I didn't feel resentful or annoyed, I just felt interesting, you know? I haven't had this feeling for a long time. If everything in a person's life is too easy, then life will become boring. A life with challenges and ups and downs is truly meaningful. "

Zhang Xusheng smiled faintly and said, but he also looked at the sunset in the distance like Xu Qingfan, his eyes flickered, and I don't know what he was thinking about or what he was recalling.

Then, Zhang Xusheng didn't speak, and Xu Qingfan also chose to remain silent. Both of them looked at the sunset silently. The two people who were completely opposite sat side by side, and the atmosphere was unexpectedly harmonious and peaceful.

After a long silence, half of the sunset had sunk below the horizon. Xu Qingfan suddenly coughed twice and spit out a lot of blood, mixed with pieces of liver fragments. His eyes were scattered and his skin became more and more dry and gray. At this moment, even the "Holy Spirit Relics" could not effectively stop him The body collapsed.

With Xiao Hei's scream, Xu Qingfan was about to fall to the ground. At this moment, the god of death finally came to Xu Qingfan and was about to take away everything in front of Xu Qingfan.

If there is only one person in this world who can delay the pace of the god of death for a moment, then this person is Zhang Xusheng.

Zhang Xusheng suddenly reached out to support Xu Qingfan's body that was about to fall. When his hands touched Xu Qingfan, a soft and mysterious power entered Xu Qingfan's body. After a circle, Xu Qingfan was surprised to find that the speed of his body's collapse was suppressed a lot, but he had a little more time to survive.

"Thank you."

Xu Qingfan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with a breath.

"No need. "

Zhang Xusheng smiled, nodded, and talked calmly, as if the two were old friends who had known each other for many years.

After a long breath, Xu Qingfan finally calmed down, looked at Zhang Xusheng in front of him, and said: "I have had many guesses, guessing what kind of person you are, but I didn't expect you to be like this..."

Halfway through his words, Xu Qingfan stopped, not knowing how to describe it, or Zhang Xusheng, a rare master of the evil way for thousands of years, talking to him so calmly at this moment, it was an incredible thing in itself.

Zhang Xusheng stood up, laughed, and said: "No one in the world can really understand what kind of person I am. Even I don't understand what I am thinking about." Such a person.”

"Yeah, it's so unreasonable and I don't know what you're going to do next. It's really hard to deal with."

Xu Qingfan also wanted to stand up like Zhang Xusheng, but found that he had no strength at all, so he simply gave up and responded lightly.

"Actually, you are very similar to me." Zhang Xusheng suddenly said: "In other words, I am very similar to before. Whether it is experience or personality."

"You have only met me once, how dare you say that we are similar? No one in the world dares to say that I am like you, you are the only one. You think too highly of me, and you underestimate yourself too."

Xu Qingfan said. What he said "only met once" was that more than a hundred years ago, Zhang Xusheng pretended to be the Mahayana master of the "Valley of Penance". Helped him prevent the "Magic Pearl" rebellion in the Southern Wilderness. At that time, Xu Qingfan still regarded Zhang Xusheng as a respectable senior, but it didn't take long. Zhang Xusheng personally severely damaged the Jiuhua lineage and was almost eliminated from the world of immortality.

"We didn't just meet once. In fact, without your knowledge, I have observed you many times. I know you better than you imagined, and I am more interested in you than anyone else. We We are all born in Jiuhua, and we were all deacons and elders of Jiuhua. We were all ordinary, but we all have potential that others do not have. You and I are on a path that no one has ever taken before. Just like me a long time ago, I am pedantic but persistent. I value responsibility and respect teachers..."

"Ha!!" Hearing Zhang Xusheng say this. Xu Qingfan suddenly couldn't help but laugh. Perhaps the only good thing about being on the verge of death is that you no longer have to worry about anything and can laugh whenever you want.

Zhang Xusheng sighed quietly, his sigh seemed to be filled with time, and he said lightly: "What I said was a long time ago. At that time, your master had just worshiped Jiuhua. At that time, I might A little more arrogant and withdrawn than you, more like Feng Qingtian, but in essence, he is more similar to you. "

Xu Qingfan stopped laughing. Indeed, he had heard Mr. Liu say that before Zhang Xusheng betrayed Jiuhua, he had a very good reputation in the world of immortality. He was "a scholar with a good personality but a bit pedantic." This was Mr. Liu's evaluation of Zhang Xusheng at that time.

But why did Zhang Xusheng become like this? There must be a reason, but Xu Qingfan was not interested in knowing it at this time. He just sighed quietly: "Unfortunately, that was just you a long time ago. After all, you are different from before. And I will not become you now. At the end of the day, we are still different.”

Zhang Xusheng seemed to have thought of something, an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said: "Or, if you have experienced the same thing as me, your personality will be the same as mine now. It’s probably exactly the same.”

However, Xu Qingfan did not hear some of the hidden meanings in Zhang Xusheng's words, and said to himself: "Do you know? After I accidentally entered your base camp before, I looked at everything there, and all your... Arrangement, I always think about it, how wonderful it would be if you were a righteous person? If you were a righteous person, under your leadership, there would be no such catastrophes and disturbances in the world of immortality, but it is a pity..."

"Some things should not be taken for granted." Zhang Xusheng said calmly: "Heaven has destined you to enter the evil path, and you are powerless to resist."

"No, as long as you have such thoughts and determination, how can you enter the evil path? In the final analysis, it is just that you cannot control the evil thoughts and ambitions in your heart."

Xu Qingfan shook his head and started preaching habitually in front of Zhang Xusheng.

Zhang Xusheng smiled slightly, but didn't take it seriously, and suddenly said: "Do you want to know why I am like this?"

Xu Qingfan glanced back at Zhang Xusheng, coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood, and said softly: "You tell me, and I will listen."

"As I said, a long time ago, you and I were really very similar. At that time, I respected and loved my master. Unfortunately, he died. His life span dried up and he died of destiny. Then I thought, could I Create another method to break away from the cycle of cultivating immortals where you have to work hard to improve your realm to slightly extend your lifespan, but the lifespan extended is not enough for a monk to break through to the next realm. After many years of exploration, I created With these secret techniques that I am now cultivating, I can seize the essence of the world for myself, and let the world become my inexhaustible longevity..."

"Then you were invaded by evil spirits?"

It was a very simple story, and Xu Qingfan had already guessed the ending.

"Yes, the evil energy invaded my mind. Unconsciously, my actions began to get out of control. Zhang Hualing can be considered a character. He used the secret method that I have been exploring for hundreds of years, but he was still invaded by the evil energy. More What's more, I was just groping forward on my own, and before I knew it, the evil spirit had penetrated deeply into my mind, and when I realized that I had no choice, my thoughts of finding a new path for the world's monks were gone."

Zhang Xusheng shook his head and sighed.

After Xu Qingfan was silent for a moment, he shook his head and said calmly: "Don't think of yourself as so great, and don't compare yourself to the master uncle. He has been fighting evil for at least a hundred years."

Zhang Xusheng smiled slightly and said, "How do you know I haven't made any efforts?"

"Have you tried hard?"

Xu Qingfan asked back.

With a self-deprecating smile on his face, Zhang Xusheng said slowly: "Everyone in the world thinks that I, Zhang Xusheng, am a lunatic and do things that are unreasonable. I keep biting like a mad dog those who are powerful but pose no threat to me. For example, the Righteous Alliance, the Zhong Family, and the Underworld Organization, but for those who are not strong yet but may threaten me in the future, they always let them go easily, and even try their best to help them grow, such as Let’s talk about Feng Qingtian, for example, and for example... you!”

Xu Qingfan listened quietly, feeling strange and unimaginable about these things.

"I used to think that I was just doing this to beat the boring life and find real excitement. But once, a friend of mine, codenamed Xuandiren, clearly pointed out that everything I did was... I was seeking death!! At that moment, I suddenly realized that this was really the case. Everything I did was indeed seeking death. Zhang Xusheng was not completely exposed to the evil influence a long time ago. It influences me to find opponents stronger than me, and influences me to cultivate my enemies until the moment I am completely destroyed, because he understands better than anyone how harmful I am to this world.”

When Xu Qingfan heard this, he couldn't help being stunned. Regarding this, he had never thought that everything Zhang Xusheng did and pursued was self-destruction?

"Then you didn't stop it after you understood it?"

Xu Qingfan asked.

Zhang Xusheng smiled slightly and asked: "Why stop it? I have said before that this kind of life is meaningful."

Xu Qingfan curled his lips. Under the evil thoughts and obsession with self-destruction, Zhang Xusheng's thoughts were indeed different from others.

"It's a pity." Zhang Xusheng sighed: "So far, no one can kill me or stop me. Before Zizhen, Liu Ji and others joined forces, I thought I was going to die soon. Unfortunately, they Not even close."

While speaking, Zhang Xusheng turned his head and looked at Xu Qingfan, his eyes flashing with an inexplicable look, as if a child had obtained a long-awaited toy.

"Through this battle, I want to understand that the only person who can destroy me, Zhang Xusheng, is Zhang Xusheng himself, or another Zhang Xusheng. It is impossible for me to kill myself. There are still many things I want to say about you in my mind. This very evil idea has not been realized, so maybe I can create another Zhang Xusheng to compete with someone who is very similar to me. It will be very interesting if you are so similar to me back then. Maybe if I change something, I might become another me.”

Hearing what Zhang Xusheng said, Xu Qingfan finally became alert. He struggled to get up, fell down on the yellow sand, stared at Zhang Xusheng closely, and asked in a cold and wary voice: "What do you mean? What do you want? What to do?”

Zhang Xusheng smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. At this moment, the light and calm atmosphere between the two parties no longer existed, and Zhang Xusheng once again became the mysterious and unscrupulous evil master.

"This is the arrangement of Heaven. Otherwise, why would I meet you after I had such an idea?" Zhang Xusheng said with a smile: "You seemed to have done nothing to me when the evil invaded. It is very disapproving to become a wicked person, so now let us take a look at what you will do when you encounter such a situation. Can you maintain the good thoughts in your heart, or become like me? What does it look like now?”

"What exactly are you going to do?"

Xu Qingfan had an ominous premonition in his heart and asked coldly.

"You should still remember this, right? Speaking of which, we met for the first time because of this thing. It was also because of this thing that I started to pay attention to you. If I hadn't seen you this time, I would have forgotten that I There is also such a collection.”

As he spoke, Zhang Xusheng raised his hands slightly, and a black bead the size of a fist suddenly appeared in his hand.

With the appearance of this black bead, the "Heaven-Defying Sword" beside Xu Qingfan suddenly let out a long and excited sound, and the demonic energy on it surged.

"It turns out the Nine Magic Pearls are still in your hand."

Xu Qingfan said word by word, as if he had already thought about the fate he would face in the future.
