The Devilish Immortal

Chapter 136 Zhu Yu’s Guidance

After listening to Zhu Yu’s explanation, Lyu Liang was at a loss of words. Then he remembered his Ancestor’s words. It seemed that the two had some tensions with each other.

As Lyu Liang started to get a bit nervous, Zhu Yu suddenly burst into laughter, “Hahaha, have I scared you, you look so nervous! Rest assured, I do have some troubles with Xuanli Zhen, but not to the extent of killing him. At most, I will stab him with my spear! As for you, you used to be a piece of chess in my eyes, but you have caused too much trouble for me.”

Lyu Liang was pissed off, thinking about all the blame he had taken, he was like a piece of chess played by Zhu Yu.

Before Lyu Liang got angry, Zhu Yu clenched his fists and made a bow towards him, “In the case of using you, you can take that you are returning an interest for Xuanli Zhen. However, it’s your Taoist companion whom I felt sorry about.”

After Zhu Yu finished his words, he turned into the appearance of the Divine Calculation Esteemed, then he turned into a blue soul, and finally returned to his own appearance.

Lyu Liang’s expression changed accordingly in a vibrant yet sophisticated way. Now, he could finally fit together the series of confusing bits and pieces. Many things in his mind turned from ‘what happening’ to ‘that’s why’.

The two looked at each other face to face. Thirty minutes later, Lyu Liang took a deep breath and still bowed to Zhu Yu and said, “Whatever happened before, I do not want to recall it again. As for the matter of Ying’er being frozen, even if the senior did not interfere, it will happen sooner or later. I do not have the confidence to bring her and escape from a Tao Ancestor’s chase. In short, you have saved my life no matter what. Thus, I will still thank you! But in the future, if you continue to do things that harm me or my loved ones and friends, I will fight you with my life!”

Zhu Yu was surprised by Lyu Liang’s composed answer. His eyes brightened, then he raised his thumb and smiled, “Good boy! No wonder I do not want to kill you from my heart, here is the reason! Rest assured, from today onwards, I will never take you as a pawn, nor will I do anything to frame you. Besides, I know the whereabouts of the Eternal Heaven Fire. When I return to the Heaven Realm and made my avenge, I will get it for you!”

Lyu Liang was stunned, he felt Zhu Yu’s character was getting more confusing. His character did not seem like a villain. But if he was considered a good guy? Is it possible for someone who was on the must kill list of the Heavenly Alliance?

Looking at the confused Lyu Liang, Zhu Xu said solemnly, “Why are you thinking so much? Being good or bad, do the eyes of others determine it? Don’t you think that you are just like me?”

Before Lyu Liang could say anything, Zhu Yu suddenly burst out a strong murderous aura, eyes red and he shouted, “I ask you! If your friends and Taoist companion are framed and killed, and the other party is significantly higher than your status, will you be afraid and back down! You broke into Kunlun Sect and Holy-Fist Palace. You killed countless people. You are also wanted by the Soul Detention Order. Do you regard yourself as a villain!”

Zhu Yu’s question was like many heavy punches to Lyu Liang, making him out of breath. The words were simple, but the sentence provoked his most sensitive heartstrings!

Yes, is the Blood Divine Sect influential? But he had never given up the thought of taking revenge for his mother! The Kunlun Sect and the Holy-Fist Palace were the top presences in the realm, but he would rather die to save Shangguan Ying! He was wanted by Soul Detention Order, and he also encountered unreasonable powerful figure like Bloodthirsty Shura, but he never regretted the choice he made for himself!

“An eye for an eye! A tooth for a tooth! Who cares about Fairy Immortals and powerful figures, justice, and morality. No one can hurt his loved ones and friends! I did nothing wrong, and I am afraid of nothing. I had never done anything vicious to hurt others. Once I have enough strength, I will clear the blame that was put on me. I will play fair and write my name!” Lyu Liang’s heart was burning by a fire, he gritted his teeth and snarled.

By now, Zhu Yu kept his aura, shook his head and smiled bitterly, “The questions I have just asked were to determine my heart rather than asking you. I have experienced all of the things you have experienced, in an even more tragic and painful way, but I insisted, and here I am! I thought that I am the only one who had the hardship, but since I met you, I know that you are a person like me!”

Lyu Liang gazed, and he remembered the puzzling experience of Zhu Yu’s team. He was about to ask questions, but Zhu Yu waved his hands and smiled, “I know what you want to ask, but now we need to discuss something more important in front of us. Those old pains, I will tell you everything after we go out from here!”

Lyu Liang put aside his curiosity, and solemnly nodded. He said, “In this case, senior, please show me how to go to the Chaotic World from the inside of the passage.”

Zhu Yu scratched his head and said, “Don’t call me senior, call my name, or call me brother Zhu, although I have lived for a thousand years, my heart is forever twenty!”

When Lyu Liang heard this sentence that was similar to what he would say, he had some good impression of Zhu Yu. Somehow, looking at Zhu Yu, Lyu Liang’s desire that gradually sank has begun to become restless. This desire was called “get stronger.”

At this time, Zhu Yu said gently, “If you want to reach the Chaotic World, you have to create another exit. We have to find the space node first, and then we have to use some effort to open it. The node is not difficult to find, but for how to turn it into a passage after it is found, I am afraid it is not something I can handle myself, we may have to cooperate on that.”

When Lyu Liang heard the words, his heart sank and he smiled bitterly, “Brother Zhu, you think too highly of me. The difference between us is the difference between the light of the moon and sun. If you can’t handle it, I would be no help even if I joined you.”

Zhu Yu laughed and looked Lyu Liang up and down, then he said meaningfully, “If it’s you at this time, it’s really as you said, you can be no help! But if you have evolved, you will be my effective help!”

“Evolution? I can evolve?” Lyu Liang was shocked by the words and had vaguely guessed something, the feeling of excitement once again emerged in his mind.

Zhu Yu shook his head and then joked, “The current you, when fighting against cultivators below the Tao Master, you can either fight or escape. But if you met the cultivators like just now, if I didn’t help you, your life will be at risk. The reason is straightforward, your moves are powerful but lack of aggressiveness! Your Divine Soul is strong, but you don’t have an eternal Taoist Heart! In my opinion, you are just a fake genius with a beautiful appearance!”

This was the most embarrassing evaluation that Lyu Liang has heard so far. Since he stepped onto the road of cultivation, powerful figures like Tai Su Ancestor Lord had been praising him. He never thought that he had such a terrible side.

All sorts of emotions welled up in Lyu Liang’s mind upon hearing the words, still, he clenched his fists in respect and said, “Brother Zhu, you are right. If you didn’t help me this time, I might not be able to escape from death!”

Zhu Yu was satisfied at Lyu Liang’s calm answer, he then said gently, “Previously, the powerful figures did not tell you these because you haven’t reached the point where they will demand you. But here is different, if you remained who you are, then neither of us can go out! You have heard the words of those people just now. I am afraid there will be a disaster in the Chaotic World. Should you have relatives and friends there? The earlier we go out, the better chance you have to save them!”

Lyu Liang’s look turned solemn and thanked him, “I understand! Brother Zhu, please tell me what to do. I will be your help, and strive to break through the territory as soon as possible!”

“Good! I shall stop all the nonsense! You only had one problem, but it is the most critical issue! You don’t have an eternal Taoist Heart, or you have it before, but now it’s gone!” Zhu Yu was no longer joking, his eyes became sharp, “Think about it yourself. What pains have you experienced since you stepped into the road of cultivation? What was your original purpose in entering the road of cultivation? What is your feeling when you are going through a death fight? What kind of pain you had when your relatives and friends suffer?”

Subsequently, Zhu Yu’s tone calmed down and he sighed, “The reason why your Taoist Heart degraded is simple. You have received too much help from the outside world. This is a double-edged sword. Without this, you can’t get to the current level, but with too much help, you are lost in this subtle help from others.”

Lyu Liang was indeed shocked this time. It was only at this time that he realized he had already indulged in such a state of mind without knowing it. Zhu Yu’s words were like a deafening thunder which immediately gave him a cold sweat.

Now he thought about it carefully. Since he came out of the Virtual Land, he had experienced countless dangers and carried out numerous death fight, but many of them were based on the condition of having valuable help.

Without the help of Black, it was impossible for him to cross those Bounded Domain and formations; Without Golden, he might have died during the thunder ordeal; Without Fatty, at the time of the marriage fight contest, he might not be able to hold the attack from that Buddha treasure; If he didn’t have the Reviving Talisman from Tai Su Ancestor Lord, he might not have the courage to break into Kunlun Sect; If there was no help from the Massive Funeral Hall and the Demon Emperors...

Lyu Liang dared to think no more and cold sweat had flowed all over him. At this time, he discovered that there were only a handful of things that he had done relying on himself only! He only remembered himself realizing the Heart Swordsmanship in the Virtual Land, and that improved his strength in a leaping distance. However, the other things were either relied on the powerful magic treasures or the help of others. In short, though he had put in the effort, it had been long for him to make another narrow escape from death!

Eternal Taoist Heart! The words mentioned by Zhu Yu, together with the questions he asked, were like a raging tide that engulfed Lyu Liang in an instant, and a deep sense of frustration and loss gradually spread through him. This feeling was the desperation he had when he entered the Virtual Land for the first time and failed to pass the Training Tower!

“Lyu Liang, look up! Look at me! Everything you have experienced now, I have experienced it! We made our names at a young age, and we lost our mind, but I was fortunate enough to meet the mentor who influenced my life, plus my deep-rooted obsessive goals, only to create who I am now! I have been alone, and you are different! You have quality resources that even I am envious of! My goal is to hope that you don’t rely too much on these resources, but integrate these resources into yourself! What you need to feel is the qualification to own and use them!” After Zhu Yu finished these words, he saw that Lyu Liang’s eyes brightened, he suddenly laughed, “In fact, you have always had an eternal Taoist Heart. What you have to do now is to recall the feeling when you had, remember it well and never forget! You are no worse than me!”
