Chapter 1599 True freedom!
Facing the words of the "Jade Emperor", Hengtian spoke seriously.
"Master, you haven't answered my question yet."
"If one day you become a necessary victim, will you regret it?"
Looking at Hengtian with a determined look, the "Jade Emperor" said calmly: "No need for 'if', in the future, I will definitely become one of the victims."
"I will not regret this fixed fate, because I chose this path myself."
Hengtian was a little surprised to get this unexpected answer.
Because he had never thought that his master would answer him like this.
"You are still young and have not seen the whole world, so your understanding of freedom is very one-sided."
"Real freedom is to do whatever you want in your mind."
“When creatures in the world make a choice, nothing will ever interfere with it.”
"But the fact is, only crazy people can do whatever they want."
"Do you think you can have real freedom by becoming a madman?"
As soon as this was said, Hengtian retorted: "Master, you are changing the concept. People are born free. How can the trajectory of their destiny be controlled by others?"
"If the fate of all living beings is fixed, then what is the difference between this and forcing people to die?"
Hengtian's tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and at this moment he felt that he was right.
However, in response to Hengtian's remarks, the "Jade Emperor" shook his head and said: "Freedom is not about doing whatever you want, but about being able to refuse things you don't want to do."
"The forbidden land is what you call the free people. Do you think this is the freedom you want?"
As he spoke, the "Jade Emperor" handed Hengtian a jade slip and paced slowly.
"When Senior Kong Xuan died, his eyes were filled with resentment."
"In your opinion, maybe he is dissatisfied with the arrangement of fate for him."
"But I can tell you that he was unwilling not because he was dissatisfied with the arranged ending, but because he hated himself for not going further."
"Does it make any difference?"
"If you hadn't deliberately arranged it, Senior Kong Xuan might have had more options."
Hengtian was still stubborn and the Jade Emperor shook his head helplessly and said, "My disciple, why don't you understand?"
"Kong Xuan is a living person. No one can decide his fate. This is all his own choice."
"As the previous Lord of Heaven, and a powerful person of the same period as Emperor Feng."
"He spent a long time in this world. During this time, do you think he did nothing?"
“It was because he did it that he understood where his end point was.”
"You are dissatisfied with our behavior, yet you still come to question me."
"If we force Kong Xuan, won't he be able to run away on his own since he has two legs?"
After hearing these words, Hengtian was stunned for a moment.
Looking at the stunned disciples, the Jade Emperor said softly: "The Golden Festival is a game organized by Senior Changsheng, and it is also a means for us and the forbidden area to test each other."
"To put it more clearly, it means using your lives in exchange for information."
"You knew this from the beginning, so why did you still participate in the Golden Gala?"
"Suppose you died at the Golden Festival, what would be your mood before you died?"
Faced with this question, Hengtian hesitated and said: "If I really die, I will definitely be very unwilling."
"Why are you unwilling?"
"Because I didn't go further and achieve more of what I wanted."
"Then will you regret it?"
"will not!"
After he finished speaking, Hengtian laughed at himself.
"I never expected that our understanding of the world is so one-sided."
"I can't understand such a simple truth. I feel ashamed of Master's teachings."
Hearing this, the Jade Emperor shook his head and said, "Don't regret your momentary confusion, because this is the inevitable tribulation on your road to growth."
"In your eyes, we in this era have no freedom."
“But in the eyes of our predecessors of the last era, we are the freest people in the world.”
"Because when we face things, we still have room for choice, but they didn't even have the qualifications to choose at the beginning."
“Will the future be better?”
"I mean, there is no need to use such a tragic way to achieve the goal."
"Most definitely!"
The Jade Emperor said seriously: "Many years ago, our predecessors who died were doing this, and we are also doing this now."
“You will continue to do the same in the future.”
"Stones pile up little by little and eventually they will form a mountain."
"The ideals in your heart will one day come into this world."
"Thank you for your guidance, Master. I understand!"
Hengtian bowed his hands, and the "Jade Emperor" said calmly: "Go, there will be new experiences waiting for you in the Black Triangle."
"The things in the jade slip will be useful to you. I hope you can survive to the end."

deck.
Facing Jun Lin's gaze, Liu Yidao suddenly felt uncomfortable all over.
"My Lord, if you have anything to say, just say it. Why are you staring at me like that?"
Listening to Liu Yidao's complaints, Jun Lin said calmly: "Nothing, I just want to see how many secrets you have hidden."
"Since we have already formed an alliance, why do you always like to hide your secrets?"
"You don't want to keep some tricks to deal with us, do you?"
"I didn't mean to hide it from you. You didn't know because you haven't reached that level yet."
"The height is not high enough, so some information is naturally a secret in your eyes."
Hearing this, Jun Lin raised his eyebrows and said, "Our height is not enough, so how much stronger can you be than us?"
"Well... theoretically, I am much taller than all of you."
Everyone:? ? ?
As Liu Yidao finished his words, Cui Haoyu, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, couldn't help but look over.
"Boy, it's fine for you to compete with your peers, but you're overestimating yourself by involving me as well."
Seeing Cui Haoyu's unfriendly eyes, Liu Yidao said speechlessly: "Senior, you don't have to threaten me."
"Although you are stronger and older than me, you may not know as much as I do."
"If we fight, it's not certain who will live and who will die."
"So confident?"
Faced with Liu Yidao's confidence, Cui Haoyu immediately became interested.
"Of course there is still some confidence. After all, from a certain level, you are just a group of children living in a beautiful dream."
"Let me give you a very simple example. Senior, you are from the Dan Era. Do you know the secret of the elixir?"
"Senior is from the Cui family, so can you guess who the next patriarch of the Cui family will be?"
"Also, do you know the detailed structure of the forces in the Cui family's ancestral tomb?"
"If you don't even know this information, what chances do you have of winning if we fight?"
