Seeking the Way of Immortality

Langnan City, the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, is the New Year!

Ten days ago, Liu Chan took time to go back and pay tribute to her parents!

When she went back, Liu Chan no longer had too much sadness, but more of the desire to live. Compared with the last time, Liu Chan has changed a lot.

From physical conditions to temperament, there have been earth-shaking changes. Her face is always filled with a happy smile. The villagers of Baishi Town are happy for Liu Chan from the bottom of their hearts when they see her changes.

That day, Baishi Town obtained a lot of unknown beast corpses, enough for the New Year.

Every household has a new look, and they have been thoroughly cleaned from inside to outside. After all, they have worked hard all year round for this day.

The children are also looking forward to this day the most, because there will be a lot of snacks, toys, and new clothes on this day. There is no other day in the year that will make the children so happy!

Wu Zheng and Liu Chan tidied up the indoor and outdoor areas, washed everything that needed to be washed, and all the wood carvings were neatly placed on the shelves in the hall by Liu Chan.

The study was full of books, and Liu Chan took down and cleaned every book before putting it back. The whole study looked spotless and tidy under Liu Chan's arrangement.

The fruits and vegetables at home filled the whole kitchen, some bought by Wu Zheng, some given by neighbors, in short, there were a lot of them.

Wu Zheng also specially carved some wood carvings to give to the children during the New Year.

The washbasin-sized turtle crawled around the big locust tree, and the mighty black dog ran back and forth, looking very excited, and the big locust tree was also shaking its branches happily.

Wu Zheng and Liu Chan had a simple meal at noon, and dinner was the most important thing.

Wu Zheng's business was also very lively that day. One morning was equivalent to the sales volume of three days on weekdays, and they were all large wood carvings, all of which were ordered by neighbors.

All morning, Wu Zheng and Liu Chan were very busy. Even with their current strength, they were tired and panting. There was a rare sweat on their foreheads. This was a rare situation for Wu Zheng since he started practicing. In addition to being related to his mood, it was mostly due to exhaustion.

Wu Zheng was the chef for dinner, and Liu Chan helped Wu Zheng. There were nearly ten dishes, and the aroma filled the whole room. Candles were lit, firecrackers rang out one after another, and every household was in a festive mood.

Wu Zheng took out the brewed "Honghuang Blood Marrow Brew", and Xiao Hei and Heidan also sat on one side of the table and were able to eat with Wu Zheng and the others.

This was absolutely incredible in the eyes of ordinary people, but in Wu Zheng's eyes, they were his friends and his partners. In his eyes, there was no difference between humans and monsters.

After eating and drinking, Liu Chan, Xiao Hei and Heidan could no longer resist the spiritual energy of Honghuang Blood Marrow Brew, and fell asleep one by one.

The Honghuang Blood Marrow Brew is a rare spiritual wine that can temper the body in the world. It is of a high grade and is not available to ordinary people. Even with Liu Chan's current strength of the third level of Qi training and Xiao Hei's first-level peak monster physique, they cannot withstand this huge medicinal power. It is undeniable that after they completely absorb and refine this medicinal power, their cultivation may not increase significantly, but their physical strength will definitely be improved.

Wu Zheng likes wine, but even with the medicinal power of the Honghuang Blood Marrow Brew, he can't feel the slightest bit of drunkenness. Even if he doesn't use his true essence to suppress it, these wines can't make him drunk with just the strength of his body.

At this point, it's really too difficult for him to get drunk!

After Wu Zheng cleaned up the dishes, he rarely appeared on the roof of his house.

Looking at the lights of thousands of houses, Wu Zheng couldn't help but sigh: "Which one of the thousands of lights is mine?"

At this time, all the families were eating at home. No one would go out at this time. Wu Zheng didn't have to worry about being discovered. Even if he was discovered, Wu Zheng had reasons to deal with it. After all, in their eyes, Wu Zheng was an image of a master in the mortal world, and it was normal for him to fly to the roof.

The lights of thousands of houses lit up half the sky, and the sound of firecrackers still resounded everywhere.

Looking at the lights of thousands of houses, Wu Zheng felt a deep sense of loneliness.

From the time of cultivation to now, although Xiaohua and others accompanied him along the way, to put it bluntly, he was still alone from the beginning to now, even with Dugu Yan, Liu Qian, and Yin Mengyao.

They all have their own homes, they all have their own relatives, but he, Wu Zheng, has no relatives.

That is a kind of loneliness from the depths of the soul, which can never be understood without experience.

Even if Wu Zheng has reached this level of cultivation, even if he is famous throughout Dingzhou, even if he has always been extremely strong in front of outsiders, even if he has Liu Chan, Xiao Hei, and Heidan by his side today, that kind of loneliness still lingers in Wu Zheng's heart and cannot be dispersed for a long time.

After re-cultivating, even if Wu Zheng deliberately suppressed it, he has reached the level of great perfection in the Qi Refining Stage. Breaking through is just a matter of wanting or not.

It has been a year since he experienced the mortal world, and it has been ten months since he came to Langnan City. The neighbors get along with him very happily, even though he lives here very comfortably, with Liu Chan accompanying him, as well as Xiao Hei and Heidan.

Occasionally, you can also see the laughter of other children.

Wu Zheng has always been indifferent, with a smile on his face, making people look like a spring breeze. For nearly a year, Wu Zheng has hardly lost his temper.

He had never seen anything that upset him, nor had he seen the intrigues that were commonplace in the world of cultivation. He had always seen the sincerity of his neighbors.

Occasionally, he would have guests at home, and sometimes he would visit other people's homes.

Now that he had Liu Chan, he had someone to chat with, but for some reason, he still seemed so lonely, just like before!

Wu Zheng knew that it was not because of others, but because of himself.

The levels they were exposed to were different, and the scenery they saw was different. He was not from the same world as them. Even if he forced himself to integrate here, he would only be hurt in the end.

Here, he had no one to communicate with. For Liu Chan, Wu Zheng regarded her more as his own relative, and more as a guide on her path of cultivation.

The daily necessities of life, pots, bowls, darts, and three meals a day were not the life he pursued. It would wear out his fighting spirit and his spirit here.

The lights flickered, sometimes on and sometimes off. The lights were warm and soft. Wherever there were lights, there would be hope. Wherever there were lights, there would be people.

The sky was shining with the faint light of stars, and the ground was swaying with the lights of thousands of houses. The two were facing each other from a distance, reflecting each other. The sky was a distant darkness, but in the darkness there were lights flickering faintly, giving people hope.

Wu Zheng's heart was vaguely enlightened.

Fire is hope!

This kind of fire is immortal. As long as there are people, it must exist. This is the power of light, the power of the heart, and the reason why the human race exists.

At this moment, Wu Zheng's body and will seemed to be in harmony with the heaven and earth, with the stars in the sky, with the lights of thousands of houses, and with the light flickering in the darkness in the distance.

The light of thousands of lights shone on Wu Zheng's body and condensed in the depths of his mind. This is a seed, this is a hope.

At this moment, Wu Zheng turned into a light in a trance, illuminating the entire sky.

Deep in his mind, a candle flickered, illuminating Wu Zheng's entire soul. A warm breath filled the entire sea of ​​consciousness, and the liquid consciousness was like boiling water.

It has nothing to do with cultivation. This is a state, a state of truly integrating into the light. This is a kind of perception of long-term experience in the world, a perception of the soul.

Wu Zheng stood on the roof for a long time, silent for a long time, and stared for a long time.

Among the thousands of lights, which one is me!

As for the thousands of lights, which one is me is not important. What is important is that I have been here, and there were traces of me here, and there is the glory I left here.

Whether it is the world of cultivation or the mortal world, I have left my footprints here. It is not important whether anyone remembers it. What is important is that this land knows that I have been here; what is important is that I know that I have been here; what is important is that the people who care about me know that I have been here!

That's enough!
