Chapter 359 - 360: Xu Liang’s Origins
Chapter 359: Chapter 360: Xu Liang’s OriginsThis is Mu Can’s plan, in which the most crucial part is that Mu Can needs to successfully pass the final trial and gain the ultimate inheritance of Tongshen Mountain. Only by doing so, can he ensure that his memory will not be sealed, and have the opportunity to
No blame to him, he was originally a Loose Cultivator, and the term ’Loose Cultivator’ is almost equivalent to having pitifully scarce resources, pitifully few Cultivation Techniques, pitifully few methods of Cultivation. Apart from having more freedom, a Loose Cultivator led a much more miserable life compared to those Cultivators with a Sect or a family.
Xu Liang had also broken through to the level of a Martial Arts Sect in anger and hatred after witnessing the tragic state of his hometown. However, Xu Liang had one particular strength: he was very interested in all kinds of secrets and rumors, and he would usually rather collect old Secret Manuals filled with rumors even if it meant not buying Spirit Stones or weapons, especially the out-of-print ones.
"I want to give you a word of advice," Mu Can said to Xu Liang. He admired Xu Liang and did not want to see him take the wrong path.
"Go ahead," Xu Liang took a deep breath, knowing that Mu Can’s words were meant for his benefit.
"I won’t advise you to let go of your hatred, but I want to tell you that hatred is not all there is to life; it is a driving force, but not the meaning of life. And remember, the Mortal World will ultimately remain the Mortal World; one day we will drive all those outsiders from the Demon World and Immortal World away," Mu Can advised.
He was afraid that Xu Liang would be blinded by hate, unable to see the future. Although hatred can drive a person forward, it cannot give strength like love.
If Xu Liang truly allowed hatred to blind him, he would not be able to see the way forward and thus had no way to break through to become a Martial Saint.
Breaking through to Martial Saint level is mostly about the comprehension of the Heavenly Dao, and how could a person consumed by hatred see the future?
"I understand," Xu Liang nodded, but his heart still harbored this knot, which was the reason for the intense hatred sometimes evident in his eyes. Seeing all the familiar faces in his hometown killed, seeing his own parents’ corpses in a pool of blood, it was destined that revenge had become his life’s mission, even his very livelihood.
"The third battle is about to begin, please prepare."
Mu Can said no more. In fact, Mu Can didn’t really know what to say because in such matters, no one has the right to persuade, as no one is Xu Liang nor has anyone gone through what Xu Liang has experienced, no one is qualified to advise him.
"Be careful in a moment. Those who have made it to the third battle are no weaklings, and it’s very likely we’ll encounter a Cultivator who has received the Ultimate Secret Manual." Xu Liang seemed to have returned to his capable demeanor, analyzing the situation at hand.
The battles would only get tougher as they go on. Eventually, they would face those like Mu Can who have understood the Ultimate Secret Manual. At that time, the real fight would erupt, and those people were precisely the enemies Mu Can needed to confront.
