Seeking Immortality

Quest for Immortality Chapter 17 Becoming a God (Part 2)

"What Fellow Daoist Liu said is certainly reasonable, but there is one thing that Fellow Daoist Liu said wrong."

Xu Qingfan shook his head.

Liu Ziqing was stunned for a moment and said to Xu Qingfan, "Please give me some advice from the island master."

Xu Qingfan said with a smile: "I understand everything that Fellow Daoist Liu said, but have you ever thought about it? The reason why the Zhong family was able to establish a foothold in the vast land of China was because the ancestors of the Zhong family existed in the Zhong family. No one dared to We are acting rashly, and what about us? Our strength is not as strong as the Zhong family at the beginning. I am afraid that as soon as we appear, in case of variables, whether it is the Human Alliance, the Zhong family, or the Shura clan, they will rush to attack us. By that time, we will have disappeared into the fighting in the vast land of China before we can change it. What's more, the Human Alliance has not yet reached its end. Even if we can join it at this time, I can’t gain their trust either. The evil way is different from the evil way.” (Read the book here (Jiudingji Novel Network)

Liu Ziqing smiled proudly and said, "I have an idea about this..."

Xu Qingfan waved his hand and interrupted: "I have a solution for this, but it is not the key to the matter. The key to the matter is that even if we can safely return to the vast land of China and let the Human Alliance put aside our prejudices and accept us, So what's next? As soon as I join the Human Alliance and act according to the plan of my fellow Taoists, I can definitely say that Xu Sheng and the original Zhengdao Alliance will inevitably experience an internal struggle for control of humanity. In this way, the Shura Clan will We no longer have the energy to deal with it, and the Zhong family has no time to deal with it. The only advantage is that it can greatly limit the growth of Zhang Xusheng's men. "

As he said that, a sharp light flashed in Xu Qingfan's eyes, he stared at Liu Ziqing closely, and said slowly, "Perhaps, fellow Taoist has thought of all this, and the reason why fellow Taoist said this and tempted me to act like this is, Just to let me help deal with Zhang Xusheng and take away some of Zhang Xusheng's energy so that you can take advantage of the chaos to find a way to deal with Zhang Xusheng again, right? "

Liu Ziqing was silent. He did not expect that in just thirty years, Xu Qingfan would have grown so fast, and that his hidden true intentions would be revealed so easily by Xu Qingfan.

Xu Qingfan sighed and said: "What makes me strange is that doing this doesn't seem to be in line with your style, Fellow Daoist Liu. According to your habits, you should help me gain a certain strength before driving me to fight Zhang Xusheng. However, At this time, Fellow Daoist Liu, you are so impatient that you want to involve me in the hatred between you and Zhang Xusheng. Is it because you think I have no potential to be your force against Zhang Xusheng in the long run, or do you think Zhang Xusheng Sheng’s power is growing too fast, so you have to do everything you can to limit his growth?”

Liu Ziqing finally raised his head and looked at Xu Qingfan silently. After a long time, he suddenly smiled and said, "Both."

Hearing Liu Ziqing's words, Xu Qingfan was not angry at all. Instead, his expression became more and more leisurely, and said: "That's it, Fellow Daoist Liu, you don't really want to join Xialing Island at all, do you?"

Liu Ziqing nodded and said: Did you really invite me to join Xialing Island? "

Xu Qingfan said: "I said yes, do you believe it?"

Liu Ziqing was silent again.

Xu Qingfan looked at Liu Ziqing, his body became more and more dazed, as if he was ready to take action at any time, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Fellow Daoist Liu, don't be nervous. When I invited you to join, I have already thought of all your ideas, so I didn't I’m not angry and I won’t take action against you.”

What do you want? "A trace of doubt flashed in Liu Ziqing's eyes, then he became calm and looked directly at Xu Qingfan and asked.

Xu Qingfan said leisurely: "Let me guess, Fellow Daoist Liu, you have been thinking about revenge on Zhang Xusheng these years. Unfortunately, you have been focusing on conspiracy and use over the years and have not developed your own power. So in the future, if you still If you want to deal with Zhang Xusheng, you must rely on one force. The Shura clan and humans are incompatible with each other. It is impossible. No action in the human alliance can escape Zhang Xusheng's eyes. It is also impossible because of my strength. You don’t like Fellow Daoist Liu, and it’s even more impossible. Therefore, Fellow Daoist Liu can only rely on the Zhong family, so Fellow Daoist’s ultimate goal should be to use the power of the Zhong family to fight against Zhang Xusheng, right?”

Listening to Xu Qingfan's long story, Liu Ziqing acted extremely calmly and just asked: So what? "

"In that case, how about a bet between you and I, Fellow Daoist Liu?" Xu Qingfan asked with a smile.

"What bet?" Liu Ziqing couldn't help asking.

"Ten years!!" Xu Qingfan said: "Within ten years, if I can eliminate the Zhong family and raise my own strength to the distraction stage, then fellow Taoist will sincerely try to help me for thirty years. Of course , I am a villain first and then a gentleman. During these thirty years, fellow Taoist, you need to entrust your soul pearl to me for safekeeping. After thirty years, fellow Taoist, you will be free. If within ten years, I will not be able to do all this. If you can do it, then I will agree to three conditions for you, no matter whether they are reasonable or not, what do you think?”

Hearing Xu Qingfan say this, Liu Ziqing was stunned. Although Xu Qingfan's strength has begun to show its scale, he wants to destroy the Zhong family, which has countless high-level zombies under his command and the Zhong family's ancestor sitting in charge? This is simply impossible. In addition, although Xu Qingfan has now reached the peak of the out-of-body stage, it seems that there is only a thin line between him and the distraction stage. However, the more you cultivate immortals, the harder it is to break through. Although it is only a thin line, even if you are a peerless genius, it is impossible to break through without hundreds of years. (Read books here (Jiudingji Novel Network

No matter how you consider it, Liu Ziqing is sure to win this bet of Xu Qingfan, but Liu Ziqing can't help but hesitate.

First, since Xu Qingfan dares to say so, he must have the confidence to succeed. Second, and most importantly, if he loses this bet, he will have to pay with his soul bead. Unlike ordinary cultivators, because he completely abandons his own body, he reshapes his body with his soul and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Once he gets the soul bead, it is equivalent to controlling his life.

Seeing Liu Ziqing's hesitation, Xu Qingfan smiled and said, "Why, fellow Taoist, do you have so little confidence in your judgment?"

After a moment of silence, Liu Ziqing suddenly raised his head and smiled, saying, "You don't need to provoke me, I'll take over this bet."

But Liu Ziqing suddenly thought that this bet There was no loss for him. If she won, it would be fine. If she lost, it would mean that the Zhong family was not as strong as he imagined. Abandoning the Zhong family and joining Xialing Island to fight against Zhang Xusheng was his only choice. Moreover, he believed that if Xu Qingfan could really destroy the Zhong family and reach the stage of distraction, it would only be a matter of time before he fought with Zhang Xusheng.

As for the fact that his soul beads would be in the hands of Xu Qingfan, Liu Ziqing did not care. As long as the two had the same goal, he believed that Xu Qingfan would never do anything to him.

After Liu Ziqing agreed to the bet, the two smiled at each other and clapped their hands to swear.

After that, the two chatted with each other as if nothing had happened just now, from the current situation of the vast land of Shenzhou, the judgment of the future trend, to the problems encountered by each other in cultivating immortals, as if Just now, Liu Ziqing had not calculated Xu Qingfan, and Xu Qingfan did not force Liu Ziqing to swear.

The atmosphere was harmonious.

As they talked, the two talked about the encounters between the two sides and Zhang Xusheng.

"Zhang Xusheng is indeed a great hero unprecedented in the history. Except for the time when he first rebelled against Jiuhua, he has not encountered too much obstacles until now. Although he was defeated by Zizhen Immortal and Mr. Liu thirty years ago, it was proved afterwards that all of this was just Zhang Xusheng's use of the Righteous Alliance. But in my opinion, this is Zhang Xusheng's fatal flaw. Although he is cautious and calculating in his actions, he is too arrogant. Coupled with his own self-destructive tendency, he will provoke everyone he can. You must know that people are weak in strength. Sooner or later, he will be defeated by hostile forces. Too big and failed and died.

Liu Ziqing talked freely.

Xu Qingfan listened with a smile. He did not agree with Liu Ziqing's words, nor did he deny them, but he was a little dissatisfied in his heart.

People often say that Liu Ziqing is the person closest to Zhang Xusheng in the world, but Xu Qingfan saw that the reason why Liu Ziqing failed repeatedly in front of Zhang Xusheng was because of two fatal flaws in his character. His mind was high and his various strategies were good, but every time he planned, he always had a sense of taking it for granted. He never thought about how his opponent would respond or how to remedy the situation if he failed. His strength was high, and he was indeed one of the few top people among human cultivators, but although he did not misjudge himself, he repeatedly misjudged his opponents, even Zhang Xusheng.

Or maybe his first half of life was too smooth, so he was always surrounded by the aura of genius and wise man, and stayed in this glory for too long, which made him always unwilling to admit his failure, and even refused to think about it. If this shortcoming is not improved, then he will never be Zhang Xusheng's opponent.

However, Xu Qingfan did not say it clearly, but frowned and asked: "Fellow Daoist Liu, basically, you should be the person who knows Zhang Xusheng best in this world. We now know that the good side of his soul wants to self-destruct, but Zhang Xusheng is controlled by the evil side of his soul. So in your opinion, what is the ultimate purpose of Zhang Xusheng's seemingly messy behaviors and the evil side of his soul?"

Hearing Xu Qingfan's words, Liu Ziqing's expression became serious again, and a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes. After a long time, he slowly said: "If I am not mistaken, Zhang Xusheng's ultimate goal should be-becoming a god!!"
