Chapter 378 - 369: Sworn Brotherhood
"Emperor Changsheng has fallen, yet he was not granted eternal life. Even such a figure could not escape the ravages of time. Then who in this world could ever achieve immortality?" Zhuo Bufan sighed.
Hearing this, everyone else fell silent, each filled with their own reflections.
The pursuit of cultivation is in search of longevity, but throughout the ages, has anyone truly attained immortality?
The answer is clear. Even the mighty Emperor Changsheng and the Tian Nan Divine King ultimately met the same fate: dust to dust. Though their names may live on eternally, what use is that?
"What does it matter whether one lives forever or not..."
As everyone fell into silence, only Mo Wangchen could be heard laughing, "Even if you were given an endless lifespan, to watch your loved ones and friends age and perish one by one, isn’t that itself a kind of suffering? Instead, we should sit down, have a drink, and enjoy life. Having a thousand years to live without regrets, that should be enough..."
"Brother Mo is right. People seek immortality without realizing that living forever is also a sorrow. The longer you live, the more troubles you accumulate," a Saint Heir from the Eastern Desolate laughed.
"Haha, not seeking longevity, but simply to live a carefree life, Brother Mo is truly open-minded and admirable for having the Divine King Body!" Zhuo Bufan looked at Mo Wangchen with great approval in his eyes.
"We are all Saint Heirs in this lifetime, and all of us have the potential to become emperors. We do not seek to be remembered for a hundred generations, but to reach the heights of the Ancient Sages would not be a wasted life. Now, as we enter the Fallen Immortal Forest, the trials we face show us the true nature of friendship. Why don’t we take this opportunity to become sworn brothers within the ruins of the Escape Immortal Palace?" Mo Wangchen smiled.
"Good!" Everyone became excited upon hearing this, clearly in agreement with Mo Wangchen’s suggestion.
