Chapter 2015: Entrance to the Fourth Floor
The old man surnamed Chen's remarks not only made Ye Tong dumbfounded, but also Ye Xun and the other two old men frowned secretly.
Ye Tong thought for a while and said, "If everyone in this world is evil, wouldn't it be a mess? Wouldn't the friendship, morality, and principles between people be completely subverted? What is the difference between us and those uncivilized livestock?"
"Yes, this is indeed not in line with the needs of human development. All things in the world are proud of the transformed human beings, not because of how attractive human looks are, or how many unique advantages they have in their bodies, but because human beings are civilized, intelligent, moral, know good and evil, and abide by principles... If we destroy all of this, wouldn't it be equivalent to degenerating into uncivilized monsters and beasts..." Ye Xun also agreed.
"You are absolutely right. What I said before was not to tell you to do evil, but to tell you that people can achieve enlightenment not only by being kind. Among many seemingly enlightened masters, there are actually many people with sinister minds and vicious hearts. Don't think that they are the most kind people just because they have profound cultivation..."
"In addition, in addition to sinister people, there are also many benevolent and kind people in this world. They punish evil and promote good as their Tao heart, and they can also seek the Tao. When such people are in high positions, they are the real blessing of all living beings..."
The old man surnamed Chen said, and he couldn't help showing a complicated look, then shook his head and stopped talking.
Then the brothers and sisters of Ye Tong understood what Chen meant. The other party was just explaining to them the fact that 'there is evil in the world', not teaching them to do evil.
"I understand, thank you Chen Lao for clearing my doubts!" Ye Tong smiled and clasped her fists. She had already been enlightened and no longer entangled with Lu Hao's sudden change and the various reactions of others when they saw her.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen!" Seeing that his sister had let go, Ye Xun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and clasped his fists to thank the old man surnamed Chen.
"Hey...! No need, no need. I was just talking casually. It's good that you can gain something. Let's go, let's go, don't delay any longer." The old man surnamed Chen smiled and waved his hand.
"Okay, then let's continue!" Ye Xun smiled lightly and walked forward first.
At this moment, a sound of breaking through the air came from the fog on the right, as if someone passed by them from a distance.
Ye Xun frowned slightly, stopped his steps, looked towards the fog, but found nothing, and couldn't help but look at Ye Tong.
The three old men, Yang Lao and Chen Lao, also failed to see the appearance of the passerby, and couldn't help but look at Ye Tong, who had the lowest cultivation.
"It's him." The purple light in Ye Tong's eyes converged, revealing a hint of surprise.
"Who is it?" Ye Xun asked curiously.
"It's Fellow Daoist Lu, but strangely, his other two teammates didn't go with him."
"Lu Yun?" Ye Xun couldn't help but be a little surprised when he heard this, but after thinking for a while, he shook his head, "Forget it, it's common for practitioners to fight for each other, let's not worry about these insignificant things."
"Speaking of which, the Yunshen Flower is really valuable, but I don't know who got it in the end." Old Yang said as he walked.
"Is there any need to think about this? He is the only one left now, and the other two are most likely killed by the Lu family. The Yunshen Flower naturally belongs to the Lu family..." Another old man in the early stage of the Golden Immortal who had not spoken for a long time smiled and said.
"According to Fellow Daoist Tong, this Fellow Daoist Lu Yun is running for his life now?" The old man surnamed Chen looked at the former in astonishment.
"Is it not?"
"I don't think so. The sound of breaking through the air just now was not very urgent. It sounded like he was just on his way."
"Hey, why are we discussing this? If he was really running for his life, I think the people from the Lu family would catch up with him soon. Otherwise, there are many possibilities..." Old Yang shook his head and smiled.
"If they don't catch up, what else is possible?" Old Tong asked curiously.
"What possibility? He gave up the fight for the Yunshen Flower!" Old Yang laughed.
"..."
Several people talked about it, thinking that Lu Li was either running for his life or gave up the Yunshen Flower because two of his teammates were killed.
But they never thought that Lu Li could snatch the Yunshen Flower from the Lu family and kill two people.
...
On the other side.
Lu Li was heading east quickly.
On this way, except for the Yunshen Flower before, he had no other gains.
He didn't want to waste time here anymore. He almost swept through the places he passed by without checking them carefully.
If he could meet the opportunity, that would be the best. If he couldn't, he wouldn't force it. The most important thing was to get to the fourth and fifth floors as soon as possible.
After traveling so fast, Lu Li came out of the foggy mountains in a few days.
In front of him was a Gobi desert with no end in sight, and scattered stones everywhere.
"Where is the entrance to the fourth floor?"
Lu Li looked around, but didn't find any trace of the entrance, and couldn't help frowning.
"Huh? Someone!"
Suddenly, Lu Li's ears moved, and he heard a movement in the misty jungle behind him.
Immediately, his figure flashed, flew back, and landed at the edge of the misty jungle behind him, hiding behind a big tree, holding his breath and waiting.
Sure enough, not long after, two men, one old and one young, flew out from his right.
The old man looked in his fifties or sixties, and the young man looked in his thirties, both of them were Golden Immortal-level masters.
After the two flew out, they landed in the air and breathed heavily.
"What a shitty place! It's so mysterious, but in the end I didn't get anything!" The young man looked depressed.
"Don't complain, kid. If the opportunity is so good, it's not an opportunity, it's garbage..."
"Hey, I know, I'm just a little depressed."
The young man sighed and looked at the old man in hemp clothes, "Old man, stop wasting time, hurry up and find the entrance to the passage."
"Okay."
The old man surnamed Gu glanced around, then gently patted the leather bag on his waist, and a gray ball of light flew out of it.
The light ball disappeared, revealing a palm-sized gray toad.
The old man surnamed Gu opened and closed his lips gently, secretly instructing the toad, and the toad showed a thoughtful look, and then with a "quack!", it broke away from the old man's palm and jumped to the right front.
"Let's go!"
The old man surnamed Gu called out and hurriedly followed the gray toad.
"There are indeed many strange people in the Ninth Heaven." Lu Li hid in the dark and saw this scene, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
The two old men surnamed Gu were very fast, and before long, their figures were completely blurred.
Seeing this, Lu Li hurried out of the woods. After a moment's hesitation, he turned into a stream of light and chased after the two people.
After about half an hour, Lu Li suddenly stopped with a look of joy. He saw a small hill in front of him, which was made of countless stones.
On the hill, there was a slowly rotating vortex of immortal energy, and at the same time, there were bursts of cold air spreading out from the vortex.
Needless to say, this was the entrance to the fourth floor.
After a slight hesitation, Lu Li stretched out his body and turned into a stream of light and flew towards the hill.
Then, he came to a spacious stone chamber, which was larger than the previous two floors.
And the entrance to the passage was different from the previous two floors. The passage here had disappeared. Only on the north wall of the stone chamber, there was a small door covered by a barrier.
After a slight pause, Lu Li walked towards the barrier door.
