Chapter 1461 Zhang Ren is "Old"

As soon as Zhang Bairen finished speaking, Chen Changsheng fell silent.

Because he knew that what Zhang Bairen said was true.

Looking at Chen Changsheng in front of him, Zhang Bairen sighed and said, "Chen Changsheng, we are different from you."

“Some things you can do slowly, but we can’t.”

"If you still have some regard for our friendship, please do us a favor."

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng looked up at Zhang Bairen and said, "When did you know?"

"I've had this thought in my mind since the first time I saw you."

"But this idea is so absurd that I have never been sure."

"To verify this idea, I have been observing you."

"As a fellow living being and a fellow genius, you never seem to be busy, and your eyes are always on the future."

"If you only behave this way for a certain period of time, then it makes sense."

"But no matter how much time has passed, your thoughts have never changed. Do you think that's right?"

Facing Zhang Bairen's questioning, Chen Changsheng pursed his lips and said, "This explanation is too far-fetched. I don't accept it."

"Okay, I'll change direction then."

"If you didn't get that thing, why did Fuyao die?"

"He is even more persistent in his pursuit of this thing. As long as he can stay alive, he will try every possible means."

"But he died in your hands, and he died voluntarily."

"There is nothing else in the world that can make Nalan Fuyao sacrifice his life except that thing."

"His death was to allow someone else to have the right to obtain this thing!"

Zhang Bairen's voice echoed in Chen Changsheng's ears, but Chen Changsheng just stood there quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Changsheng slowly said, "Congratulations on successfully finding the greatest secret in the world."

"So are you going to kill me now?"

"Maybe if you kill me, you can have the secret."

"Not interested in!"

Zhang Bairen waved his right hand and said calmly: "If you can share this secret with others, Chen Shisan and the others will not die."

"It is precisely because you can only enjoy this secret alone that your life is so painful."

"I don't want to waste my limited time on you."

Looking at Zhang Bairen in front of him, Chen Changsheng said softly: "How did you become like this? You were not like this before."

"I was certainly full of confidence before, because I had a lot of things I wanted to pursue."

"But after meeting you, I found that half of my life's goals disappeared."

"Because longevity is not as happy as I thought."

"Who says immortality is not happy?"

"Are you happy then?"

Zhang Bairen questioned Chen Changsheng harshly, but Chen Changsheng could only answer with silence.

"Having reached our level, there are not many things in the world worth pursuing."

"Fame, wealth, beauties, and fortune are nothing to us."

"Saving the people of the world may be what Nalan Xingde and his group are pursuing, but I will not completely become such a person."

"If I have no desires, what is the meaning of living?"

After listening to Zhang Bairen's words, Chen Changsheng said: "I used to think the same as you, but later I found out that I was wrong."

“The meaning of life lies not in the destination but in the process.”

“This process is to constantly pursue new goals, because only in this way can our long life be meaningful.”

After getting this answer, Zhang Bairen spread his hands and smiled.

"Coincidentally, I have the same idea as you, so I am pursuing something interesting now."

"For example, exploring the secrets of this world and saving the people of the world."

"But ideas are ideas, reality is reality. The world is too big, and even if I spend a million years, I may not be able to see through everything."

"Maybe one day, I will be defeated by time."

"So before that day comes, I need to speed up so that I can see more things."

"As a friend, I believe you will lend me a helping hand."

Hearing this, Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "Since you asked, I will help you this time."

"But the Heavenly Emperor Realm is too complicated. I am not sure I can formulate the appropriate standards."

"If this matter were simple, I wouldn't come to you."

"But no matter how difficult this is, I believe you can do it, because you are the only undertaker in the world."

After saying that, Zhang Bairen walked away with his hands behind his back.

"I'll go get something for the ticket."

"If I don't pay a certain price, the Tiandao Society probably won't let me watch the battle."

"You keep busy first, I'll come find you later."

Seeing Zhang Bairen's figure gradually going away, Chen Changsheng couldn't help but ask.

"Why don't you take another path, so you can live longer!"

"Sorry, I'm not interested in those methods."

"I am the Jade Emperor of Heaven. How can I live in such a cowardly way?"

"If I was willing to follow their path, why would I have left the Ancient Forbidden Land in the first place? After all, I don't want you to look down on me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Bairen's figure disappeared completely.

Looking at the direction where Zhang Bairen disappeared, Chen Changsheng whispered: "System, why do I suddenly feel that Zhang Bairen seems to have aged."

"Return to the host, you are not wrong."

"In a way, he has aged."

After receiving this answer, Chen Changsheng frowned and said, "But with his skills, he should be able to live for a long time."

"Replying to the host, the boundary between youth and old age is not time, but mentality."

“When a living being realizes that his life is entering the countdown, he has already begun to grow old.”

"But he still has plenty of life left!"

"How is it possible to enter the countdown?"

Chen Changsheng couldn't understand what the system said, but the system spoke calmly.

"From the perspective of an ordinary cultivator, Zhang Bairen's life span is indeed sufficient, but it is still insignificant in front of you."

"Assuming his life span is one million years, he has already lived through one fifth of it."

"If his life span is 10 million years, one-fiftieth of it."

"No matter how long his life span is, for them, it will eventually come to an end."

"Without you as host, they might not realize this problem, or they might not realize it so early."

"But your existence has been reminding everyone that their time has an end."

"Once they realize this, it will be the beginning of their aging process."

"After all, not everyone can bear the weight of time."
