C1323 Three Poisons Cut by the Sword of Intelligence(part Ii)

"Blood Light Scattered!" Just as the scene in the illusion changed, in the Yin Yang Five Elements Breaking Formation, the blood-red light around Lin Bai's body suddenly dissipated. As the scene in the illusion changed, in the Yin Yang Five Elements Breaking Formation, the red light in Lin Bai's body suddenly dissipated, his face no longer showed any signs of emotion.

Old Man Man Man was silent, but his brows were also locked tight. He too was unclear about the current situation. According to his inherited memories, as long as the emotions of the person inside the formation calmed down, it would mean that the effect of breaking through the formation had been completely completed. But now, why was Lin Bai still immersed in the illusion and not waking up? This was truly puzzling!

"Mom, old man, Xiaoqing, Gale, I have something to ask you." After swallowing the pill, Lin Bai slowly put down his chopsticks. He glanced at the table, and said, "If, I mean, if." If there is an opportunity to let you live for a few hundred years longer, we can live together for as long as possible. But this chance, will likely cost you a lot of things. Do you choose to sacrifice those things, or to reject this chance to live forever? "

As the sound of his voice faded, the dining table was instantly filled with silence. Everyone silently stared at Lin Bai, their faces filled with disbelief.

Staring at the expressions on the faces of the crowd, Lin Bai couldn't help but sigh in his heart. How could this be an illusion? Everything felt like it was happening. Perhaps this was infatuation, intoxicating, regardless of right or wrong, not knowing the true fantasy.

"Stinky brat, are you kidding? How could there be a way to live forever? If there really was such a thing, then wouldn't everything be thrown into chaos?" After a long period of silence, Old Master Liu chuckled as he said in surprise.

Lin Bai shook his head and said, "Old Master, you don't need to know whether I'm joking or if it's true. Just tell me what you think."

The moment the words left his mouth, the room became deathly silent once more. The expressions on everyone's faces kept changing. Longevity could be said to be a great temptation, both for the grandmaster and for ordinary people. If there was such a possibility in this world, that one could live an endless life and accomplish many things that had yet to be done, who could firmly push away the temptation?

"What do I need to sacrifice?" After being silent for a long while, Liu Yunyun slowly spoke while looking at Lin Bai somewhat nervously.

"To sacrifice some people's lives, it might be the lives of the majority of people. Even this world might fall into the chaos from several decades ago." Since he wanted to walk out of the illusion created by that infatuation, he had to torture his own heart. Lin Bai did not hide anything as he slowly said, "Once the path of longevity opens, there might be many powerful villains coming to this world, causing all order to collapse."

The moment the words left his mouth, the room returned to silence. Just like when Lin Bai told the story to Chen Baian and Zhang Sanming, their hearts struggled in pain. One side was the temptation of longevity, while the other side was a tragedy that might appear after a choice was made. Compared to the two, it was really hard to choose between the two.

"Nonsense, even if there is such a possibility, how could our family do such a thing?!" As Lin Bai expected, the first person to stand out to oppose this matter was Old Master Liu. He blew at his beard and glared as he said furiously, "This peace and quiet today was brought about by the blood and sweat of my fellow soldiers. If our family were to destroy this peace for the sake of personal gain, even if I am able to live, how can I have the face to face with those comrades who have sacrificed themselves in my heart? "

"This is old man's choice." Lin Bai nodded his head noncommittally. Then, he looked towards Liu Yunyun and slowly said, "Mom, what do you think about this matter? Do you want me to do it, or do you want to stop me like the old man?"

"It's good for a family to be together for the rest of their lives, but if so many people are sacrificed in exchange for this peace, they would have to spend the rest of their lives thinking about how their longevity was exchanged with the blood of others." Liu Youyun was surprised at first. After pondering for a long time, her face revealed a relieved expression as she slowly said.

Even ants coveted life, not to mention humans. How could there be people who did not covet longevity? However, Liu Yunyun had been a good Samaritan all her life, and even ants could not bear to hurt her. If she wanted to obtain longevity, she would have to sacrifice countless lives. How could she feel at ease about this?

"What do you think?" After listening to Old Master Liu and Liu Yunyun's answers, Lin Bai remained expressionless. He slowly turned his head, gently holding Xia Xiaoqing's and He Jiale's hands, and stared at the few girls as he asked in a low voice.

The attitudes of these women could be said to be the most important part of Lin Bai's heart, whether or not he wanted to open the gate of immortality and seek longevity. It had to be known that these women were all sincere in their affection for him. From meeting him until now, they had experienced countless hardships and experienced countless joys and sorrows, but to them, it was like they were meeting each other for the first time, relying on each other for life and not abandoning each other.

A hundred years might be an immeasurably long period of time, but in reality, it was still a fleeting period of time. Many times, Lin Bai would put in all his effort to consider the matter. If he allowed time to fly by, the separation between him and the girls would be a foregone conclusion. To be unable to stay by their side and to be left alone in the years to come, this was probably the outcome that the few girls didn't want to see the most.

Back then, he had gone to South America without fear of danger. He had wanted to use Chen Baiyin's secret life-support technique to increase the lifespan of the girls, so that the day of their departure would come a little later.

However, as Lin Bai's mana entered the Spirit Transformation realm, his martial arts cultivation reached the innate realm, and he had an incomparably long lifespan, he knew better than anyone else that even with the assistance of a secret life-saving technique, no one would be able to change his future separation.

This was originally a dead knot, but now that the Door of Immortality had appeared, he had the possibility of reaching the other shore. He even had the possibility of taking his family and living on the other side of the river, allowing them to live long lives just like he did. As a result, the knot was no longer in place, but the sacrifice of breaking it was too cruel, and he had no idea what the girls would choose to do.

"A hundred years of life is like a wish, time is always too fast." After letting out a soft sigh, a charming smile appeared on his face. He said gently, "Meeting you at our most beautiful time is already the greatest blessing of our lives. There is no way we would covet so much. Meeting and being together is such a beautiful thing. If one were to be stained with blood, even if they were to live forever, there would be no more fun to talk about. "

"And even if we don't have any left, we would still need to save up for our children and grandchildren, including little Jingxing, Lizhen and the others. If we were to destroy this world for the sake of longevity, then if these little fellows were to encounter any greed, would they follow our example and destroy us as well? "

Ning Huayan had always been open with her words. Even at such a critical moment, she had still blurted out the words. She had even touched Little Jingxing and Lizhen's heads as she asked Lin Bai with a smile.

However, even though Ning Xiaoxiao's words were vulgar, the logic behind them was not vulgar. As long as there was a beginning and a first time, there would be a second time. Moreover, as parents, who could guarantee that their children wouldn't sacrifice them for the sake of a certain desire?

"Longevity, we desire, we also want to be by your side forever, but we do not need this kind of eternal life." Xia Xiaoqing shook her head slowly, then covered her mouth and laughed coquettishly: "Besides, with your personality, if you really have longevity, then it would be terrible. I wonder how many good sisters you'll find us, and how many good older sisters we'll have to find.

Upon hearing these words, the crowd broke into laughter. Even Lin Bai could not help but shake his head with a bitter smile.

"Is this your choice?" After laughing bitterly for a moment, Lin Bai slowly retracted the smile on his face. He solemnly looked towards the people sitting around the dining table and softly said, "This choice cannot be changed once it's been made. Do any of you want to go back on your words now?"

"What's the point of going back on our word?" Old Master Liu lightly patted Lin Bai's shoulder, and waved his hand as he smiled merrily, "It's the new year, don't talk about such vexing matters anymore. Longevity is good, joy is endless, but our hearts are made of flesh, blood, and not iron. We cannot do things that are as cold as a snake or a scorpion's liver. "

As the sound of his voice faded, the table was filled with laughter. Looking at the laughing crowd at the dining table, Lin Bai suddenly stood up and walked out of the room. With each step he took, the surrounding area around the table shattered like a mirror and turned into colorful clouds. However, these clouds were a lot more agile than before and seemed to have a bit more life force.

"Being an idiot among the three poisons is indeed a well-deserved reputation." Looking at the dazzling clouds in all directions, Lin Bai's eyes shone brightly. He gazed at the void in front of him, and the shadow of the true master that was covered by countless clouds, and said indifferently: "First let me obsess over my longevity, and then let me develop greed for it. It is a pity that I am just a little bit away from losing myself in this endless Three Poison Will, and never being able to get out of it ever again. "

"It's just a little bit, just a little bit more …" After a long time, the shadow of the true master could not help but laugh bitterly.

"If I'm just a hair's breadth away, I'll lose by a thousand kilometers." Lin Bai smiled noncommittally and said faintly, "You only thought that people in this world were as bewitched by these three poisons as you are. But you didn't expect that the choice my family made would be at the other end of the spectrum."

"So what if the restriction is broken? You haven't even seen my real body. You will never know how powerful the person you are facing is!" The shadow of the true master sneered upon hearing this. His originally ethereal face became even more indistinct. However, his voice was incomparably cold as he said indifferently, "Believe me. When you see me, the competition for the opening of the gate of immortality will definitely not be as it is now!"

"The result is not important. What is important is that I have already understood my true nature." Lin Bai was neither angry nor happy. He waved his hand slightly and said faintly, "Moreover, no matter what, you've already lost a round at my hands! "Break the Three Poisons Hexing, Break!"
