353: Chapter 155 The Spirit a Cultivator Should Have_6 353: Chapter 155 The Spirit a Cultivator Should Have_6 Jue Ying nodded upon hearing the voice, his entire being growing increasingly entangled.
Cao Zhen looked at Jue Ying with anger and disappointnt and shouted, “I don’t know what you’re agonizing over.
Are you or are you not a cultivator?
As fellow cultivators of one of the ten great Immortal Sects, those three from Dharma Apex Sect, even after their bodies were invaded by the Death Aura and they almost turned into Zombie Soldiers, they used the last bit of their consciousness to find ways to alert outsiders to the changes here.
When we arrived, though fully capable of killing us, they still controlled themselves, suppressed their cultivation base, and let kill them.”
“That’s what true cultivators are.
And then there’s Zhao, the head of the authorities you killed.”
Cao Zhen pointed to the body of Zhao and exclaid, “Even Zhao, a re mortal, could stand firm in his beliefs, could stand up for the civilians here, preferring to be killed by you.
“A mortal could do that, so what about you, an Immortal?”
Cao Zhen’s voice grew louder as he spoke, not treating Jue Ying like a cultivator but more like a coward.
He pointed at Jue Ying and yelled, “Forget about being a cultivator, even a mortal, a man, should have his own responsibilities!
“Look at yourself now.
Do you have any sense of responsibility?
What have you done?
When a man makes a mistake, he admits it, he faces up to it, he accepts the punishnt that cos with it!
“Admit your wrongs, accept your punishnt, and I’ll still consider you a man, a spirited Immortal.
I should make pills for you, and I will make them!
“But now, because they’ve promised to help you with your Heavenly Tribulation, to help you enter the Longevity Period, you’re willing to harm the people of the ten great Immortal Sects?”
“If you think there’s no issue with that, then go ahead and do it.
But do you really believe that what you’ve done can always be covered up?
“I ask you, do you truly think that what you’ve done can be concealed forever?
Why are you silent?
“Have you ever considered, what if this matter can’t be kept hidden, what will happen when it cos to light?
Do you think you can defeat the Grand Preceptor, or that you alone can withstand the wrath of Hundred Peaks Sect, withstand the fury of Dharma Apex Sect?
“Or do you believe that the Grand Preceptor will be dug out of his grave in this Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth?
That Hundred Peaks Sect and Dharma Apex Sect will all be destroyed?”
“Do you think such a thing is likely to happen?”
“If the Grand Preceptor and both Hundred Peaks Sect and Dharma Apex Sect survive this Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth and begin to investigate, then what?
When it all points back to you, do you think it’ll still be only your concern?”
“Have you thought about your Sect?
At that ti, should your Sect protect you or abandon you?
Have you ever considered that your Sect might be dood because of you?”
“How cowardly have you beco now?
Forget about Immortals, with your current cowardice, you don’t even qualify as a man.
If you were even slightly a man, you wouldn’t let your Sect fall into danger because of you!”
“Stop talking!” Suddenly, Jue Ying raised his head and let out a thunderous roar, so loud that it startled birds into flight far away.
He straightened his chest mightily, facing Cao Zhen, and said word by word, “You’re right, I was wrong, so incredibly wrong!
As my lifespan neared its end, I changed, beca cowardly, irresponsibly fearful for my life.
“Jue Ying shall bear the consequences of his own actions.
I cannot let my actions endanger my Sect.
“As you said, one must take responsibility for his own mistakes.
Continue crafting the Pill for , and I will inform my Sect to send another expert to hold the fort here, while I will accompany you to the Capital City and confess before the Grand Preceptor.
“If the Grand Preceptor decides that my misdeeds are egregious and chooses to kill on the spot, I’ll accept it!
But before that, I hope you will craft the Calamity Avoidance Pill.
I still have Spirit Stones, and there’s a market in this city, and along the way to the Capital City, there are major markets where I can surely gather all the herbs needed, right?”
“As long as we gather all the herbs, start crafting the pills for imdiately, because if the Grand Preceptor truly decides to kill , I’ll ask him to let take the pill.
“My greatest wish in this lifeti has been to beco an Earth Immortal and reach the Longevity Period.
There’s no problem if the Grand Preceptor kills , and I accept it.
“But if I could enter the Longevity Period, I would die content!”
Jue Ying’s voice grew louder with each word, his back straighter and straighter, exuding a heroic vigor he hadn’t shown in years, reminiscent of his youth when he had been underestimated and never expected to reach the Golden Core stage, full of vigorous determination.
His thoughts beca utterly clear, as never before, and in his heart, all fear of death, all timidity, worries about the future, and all distracting thoughts were cast aside.
In this mont, he finally understood what the Wind Fire Tribulation truly ant, and why it existed—
The Wind Fire Tribulation is about the courage to move forward like the wind, unstoppable by any obstacle or setback, charging through the tiniest chance of success to break through.
The Fire represents the intensity of life.
Life is not about cowering, not about simply surviving longer.
Fire is an intense life…
At this mont, Jue Ying reached unprecedented clarity, with an air that had surged within him now wildly stirring, causing violent fluctuations in the air around.
Above the heads of the crowd, dark clouds of Tribulation gathered, casting a shadow over the entire area.
“Wind Fire Tribulation!”
Cao Zhen was thoroughly shocked.
Jue Ying’s deanor ant he was undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation!
He quickly grabbed Lan Pili and retreated swiftly.
He was too close to Jue Ying; if Jue Ying underwent the Tribulation, he would be affected too.
He and Lan Pili were only at the Core Formation Stage.
Let Jue Ying undergo his Tribulation, but hopefully, it wouldn’t burn them alive in the process.
