Martial World's
1940 - Understanding Life and Death
…
…
…
Lin Ming did not walk on the same cultivation path.
In the past when Lin Ming was at the Revolving Core realm he had gone to the Sacred Demon Continent and the Eternal Demon Abyss to adventure. Then, he returned to the Sky Spill Continent to take down Xuan Wuji before traveling to the four heavenly Kingdoms. After absorbing all kinds of resources, he managed to break into Life Destruction.
Such a cultivation method was the best given the state Lin Ming was in at that moment.
But to the current Lin Ming, all of that was meaningless.
All of the previous cultivation methods from his past were not of much value to the current Lin Ming.
Lin Ming's only hope for revival was the Sacred Scripture and Heavenly Sutra.
The Great Dao is infinite and infinite. According to Jiang Baoyun's words, if there was a peak of the highest martial art in this world then it was likely a fusion of the Holy Scripture and Heavenly Sutra, as well as a triad of essence, energy, and energy, and heavenly.
Lin Ming's life source was destroyed and the conventional cultivation method had no meaning to him.
The only possible way out would be to search the Sacred Scripture and Heavenly Sutra for a turning point to reverse the Heavenly Dao.
However, he only had 20 years left to live.
Day by day, year by year.
Training continues without a sense of time. Soon, 15 years passed.
Lin Ming sat motionless in the stone cave.
His cultivation had stopped at the Revolving Core realm and had not broken through to Life Destruction.
This was because he had not cultivated at all during these past 15 years. Instead, he enlightened himself.
With his return to the mortal realm over the years, he had seen countless changes and moods of mortality, and he used these feelings to become more aware of the Sacred Scripture and Heavenly Sutra.
The Heavenly Sutra that cultivates the universe of the world is basically the Heavenly Dao and the realm itself.
In the past, Lin Ming's understanding of the Heavenly Dao had been restricted to comprehending every Law, where he was limited within the 33 Great Daos.
In fact, this was already a very deep level of understanding. Let alone martial artists of the lower realms who could not even walk on a single legal path to the extreme, even a supreme elder of the heavenly Realm would often only cultivate a single Law to the pinnacle in their entire life. They would not have the fortune to come into contact with the 33 Great Daos.
But now, the Heavenly Sutra that Lin Ming understood was no longer just becoming enlightened about these things.
Laws were part of the Heavenly Dao, but they were not everything.
There's a lot more.
As Lin Ming walked through the world during these years, he had seen the samsara of the Heavenly Dao, he had seen birth and death; all of these were part of the Heavenly Dao.
The Heavenly Dao is constant, but life is always changing. Lin Ming now had a deeper understanding of the Heavenly Dao.
And these understandings had all fused into the Heavenly Sutra, causing the Heavenly Sutra to include many things that it had not before.
It should be known that when the Asura Road Master created the Heavenly Sutra, he had used 3.3 billion years to do so. One life, one Empyrean, one life, one God. The Heavenly Sutra could be called vast and profound, but if one wanted to add it, wanting to incorporate their own feelings and understanding into it, wouldn't it be easier said than done?
But Lin Ming bravely did all this. He did not know if what he added was right or wrong, but what he knew was that what he added was most suitable for himself.
After the Heavenly Sutra was the Holy Scripture.
To the current Lin Ming, the Scriptures were actually more important.
This is because the Holy Scriptures that cultivate the universe essentially cultivate one's existence, cultivate one's life. In these years, Lin Ming's life comprehension became deeper than ever.
He slowly enjoyed the taste of life. He enjoys not only his own life, but the lives of others. Suffering from the children, a poor aunt who set up a stall, Zhu Yan whose heart was higher than heaven but ended up being defeated by reality and even then did not give up, but decided to pursue a new goal in life. And even Jiang Baoyun, who was desperately pursuing his goal without hesitation …
He had seen a hundred ways of life. Now that he had reread the Holy Scriptures, his mentality had become quite different from before.
The Scripture that Lin Ming obtained was actually very incomplete.
He had yet to see the death page from the Holy Scripture. When Sheng Mei gave Lin Ming a duplicate copy of the duplicate jade slip from the golden page, its contents were pages of life. Moreover, as a mere copy, there must have been misinformation in what was recorded.
As for the black book recorded in the Holy Scriptures and now in the hands of the Soul Emperor, Lin Ming had not even seen it.
The death page of the Holy Scripture was even more mysterious. If Lin Ming wanted to enlighten himself to the Scriptures like this, it was an impossible task. After all, Lin Ming had not even lived for 200 years.
However, Lin Ming was completely aware of several things.
Of course, the things he understood were not as profound and all-encompassing as what would be written on the page of death. Still, as long as he could understand the things that were most suitable for himself, that was more than enough.
This was because right now, Lin Ming was experiencing death!
He could watch as the flames of his life faded more and more each day, and could feel death approaching at any moment. He could even clearly hear the footsteps of the angel of death coming for him.
To understand life and death on the verge of being forgotten, there was no situation more profound than now!
In fact, even the creator of the Scriptures did not manage to understand death completely. The Art of Eternal Life he established also had its flaws.
At the very least, the creator of the Scriptures did not manage to obtain immortality.
Perhaps, this might be because the creator of the Scriptures did not experience the despair of witnessing the flames of his own life dim every day. That creator had never experienced what Lin Ming felt now …
To understand the Heavenly Dao and understand life and death.
Lin Ming sat motionlessly in the cave.
Dust fell on his body.
Like this, three more years passed.
Lin Ming's life flame was now a candle in the wind, looking as if it could be extinguished at any moment However, Lin Ming's face was like a stone statue, having no emotions at all.
His heart was calm to the extreme.
In this absolute silence, Lin Ming silently comprehended the pages of the death Scripture.
He wanted to fully understand death and then seek life from death.
Life passes. Lin Ming's eyes became increasingly cloudy every day. His eyes were like the eyes of a Soul Emperor in the past. After opening it, the cataracts were so clear that he could barely see.
His mortal body remained as formidable as before. But due to his weak soul, he lost control of his own body.
He can no longer move his lower leg …
Lin Ming was silent. He had been sitting cross-legged on the ground all along, and now he could no longer feel his calves.
This kind of feeling, or lack of feeling, slowly spread upwards.
It was as if he was scared the whole time.
From his calf, next was his thigh, his waist …
Right now, Lin Ming was truly like a statue. If his soul were to truly die at this moment then his life would reach its end.
But the mortal body would remain behind, not decaying even after 100,000 years.
Gradually, Lin Ming lost all feeling in his chest. Even his hand movements slowed down.
Although his heart was still beating and blood was flowing through his veins, it was not something that Lin Ming controlled at all
Death has never been this close.
However, he did not manage to find a way to live by comprehending the pages of death.
This is all too hard!
Even if Lin Ming's foundation was solid to the limit, even if he had experienced the ups and downs of life, having seen the myriad conditions of humanity, having been fully aware of his own life …
Even then, wanting to find a way to live from a certain death threat was as difficult as ascending to heaven!
"Why hate it .. if I were given another hundred years to understand, if only I could use the Magic Cube …. ”
Lin Ming did not want to. He did not want to die through the depletion of his soul.
If he could use a heavenly tool of the soul like the Magic Cube, then even though it would not cause Lin Ming's life flame to burn brightly once again, he could still use it to stabilize his spiritual sea and slow its collapse.
Lin Ming could feel his days had been counted; he did not have much time left. If things continued like this then he would absolutely not be able to find a turning point in his own fate.
However, he was not willing to give up like before. He summoned the remaining bit of soul force left within his body and poured it into his shattered inner world where it would tremble towards the Magic Cube.
In Lin Ming's split universe filled with holes everywhere, the Magic Cube floated in space. This space was still silent, with huge spatial cracks spreading out in all directions.
A small and invisible stream of soul flames flew out from the space crack and towards the Magic Cube. This was almost all the little soul force that Lin Ming had left.
This small trace of soul force was infused with the overall feeling that Lin Ming was aware of. He poured out his complete understanding of the Heavenly Dao samsara that humans encountered. He added in everything he learned about samsara life and death.
This was a fruit produced from the last 20 years of Lin Ming's cultivation.
A faint hint of soul fire fluttered towards the Magic Cube and then disappeared into it.
Like a small stream fused into a lake, there was no change at all.
The Magic Cube continued to revolve in that shattered space, spinning like before.
Lin Ming silently waited. What he was waiting for was death, or perhaps a miracle.
His mind was still like a calm person. Although he could feel his source soul power weakening daily, even when he could not operate the Magic Cube, he still maintained his calm and composed expression from start to finish.
Lin Ming felt his heart tighten. If he fails here then it is the will of the heavens and the fate of those who live and die.
If he were to die here, then it would be part of the Heavenly Dao samsara.
If humanity is in decline and will eventually be annihilated by the saints and spirits, then this is only the will of the heavens. In the long river of history, there was never a noble race until the end of time!
Time passed without a sound. Lin Ming's heart reached a state of unprecedented clarity.
He recalls his life.
In his few dozen short years of life, he had experienced glory, experienced despair, and showed nothing but disdain for an opponent who dared to challenge him. In the end, he had even made a true Sacred Lord unable to remain calm. But in the end, it came to such an outcome?
As Lin Ming recalled his life, he heard a light voice.
This unreasonable weak voice seemed to be coming from his inner world sympathetically echoing with him. This caused Lin Ming's nearly dried up spiritual sea to slowly tremble!
This is a level of clarity never seen before!
He could see that in his inner world, the Magic Cube trembled lightly!
This trembling was weak, but Lin Ming could immediately feel the warm and loving soul power This soul power was connected to his own spiritual sea, and was even related to the Magic Cube!
However, Lin Ming's current soul strength was still far from enough to open the Magic Cube.
Therefore, he was surprised to hear an old voice echoing in his ears.
"Lin Ming .. it's been a long time since we last saw each other …"
This voice …
Lin Ming was stunned.
This is the Misty Divine Empyrean!
In the past, Lin Ming entered the Asura Road and was forced into the Tragic Death Valley by Tian Mingzi.
In Tragic Death Valley, he met Empyrean Divine Mist. Empyrean Divine Mist showed Lin Ming elegance by teaching him.
Since Empyrean Divine Mist had been trapped there for so many years, he had expended a lot of his soul power and did not have much time left. Thus, Lin Ming sealed his soul into the Magic Cube where he could rest deeply. Lin Ming hoped that there would be days in the future when he could help Empyrean Divine Mist recover his vitality and reshape his soul. Although Empyrean Divine Mist might not be restored to his situation from the past, Empyrean Divine Mist hoped that he could still live the rest of his life.
After which, Lin Ming fell into a life and death massacre. Due to the great calamity of the human race and the fact that Empyrean Divine Mist had fallen asleep in the Magic Cube, he had never thought of the day when Empyrean Divine Mist would awaken …
