Cao Cao's posture was extremely low. From his expression, one could clearly see his confusion and a faint fear that inadvertently flashed across his eyes.
During this month, he had not only been recruiting soldiers and buying horses, but he had also read all kinds of ancient books and even read many Daoist scriptures just to resolve the doubts in his heart.
However, the more he understood, the more terrified and puzzled he felt. This Shangxian who had suddenly appeared was like a god. He had guessed everything clearly, making his hair stand on end.
It was as if his fate was in the hands of others. If he had not encountered it, he would have treated it as nonsense. However, after this episode in his life, how could he pretend to be ignorant?
"Forget it, follow me." Li Xuanling looked at Cao Cao, who had been bowing for a long time and did not get up. He muttered to himself for a while and pretended to be helpless.
With a movement of his feet, he turned around and left Chen Liu. Cao Cao respectfully followed behind him, thinking about the questions he wanted to ask later.
There were too many things he didn't understand and many things he needed to answer. If he threw them out all at once, he was afraid of offending this high and mighty immortal.
After leaving Chen Liu, Li Xuanling's eyes curled into a smile. He raised his eyebrows at Diao Chan, who was beside him, and his face carried an expression of having everything under control.
A cloud of mist rose from beneath his feet and carried the three of them straight into the underworld. Cao Cao followed behind the two of them without realizing it. He kept walking on the Cloud Leaping Technique and almost bumped into Li Xuanling's back.
A cold breeze blew past his ears, and Cao Cao shuddered. He recovered from his chaotic thoughts and looked around, almost kneeling.
F * ck! He silently soared into the sky! He was not mentally prepared at all!
Humans had an instinctive yearning for the sky, but they also had an indescribable fear. This was the first time he was in the sky, and there were no protective measures around him. Cao Cao could not even stand straight.
His heart rate instantly exceeded 180. Cao Cao's body stiffened. He wanted to lie down, but he didn't have the courage. His legs didn't seem to belong to him anymore. The expression on his face was as ugly as it could be.
As the earth moved further and further away, goosebumps appeared all over Cao Cao's body. He felt a chill down his spine, and his limbs were no longer under his control. The vast earth did not give him any sense of majesty, only fear.
"Don't worry, I won't fall off. I'll admire this land. This is the land that has attracted countless people to fight and kill for thousands of years.”Li Xuanling said as he slowly drove the auspicious cloud.
"Exalted Immortal, can I lie down?" Cao Cao's expression of almost crying did not ease. The birds flying in the sky made him feel unreal.
"I can answer your question. The white part is the edge, and the other parts are solid and thick. Let alone lying down, even dancing and jumping are fine.”Diao Chan covered her mouth and chuckled before speaking first.
She was also quite frightened when she got on the cloud back then. However, it was night time at that time. Her master carried her up directly, so she did not have this kind of fear in broad daylight.
"Many, many thanks, Miss Diao Chan.”Cao Cao recognized Diao Chan. The two of them had met a few times. Although Diao Chan's temperament and appearance were better now, he was confident that he would not mistake her for someone else.
Under Diao Chan's half-joking words of comfort, Cao Cao did not really lie down on the cloud. Instead, he sat down cross-legged and patted the cloud with his palm. He felt the solid texture and felt slightly relieved.
Looking at the vast land from afar, although he still felt a little uneasy, Cao Cao was still a formidable hero of his generation. After a short period of adaptation, he immersed himself in the beautiful rivers and mountains.
"Poetic interest?" Li Xuanling looked at Cao Cao's expression and knew that his ambition had been ignited once again.
"Exalted Immortal has discerning eyes.”Cao Cao wanted to stand up and bow, but after trying, he still felt that it was not safe. He cupped his fists awkwardly.
" In the eyes of mortals, the thirteen prefectures of the Great Han Dynasty are indeed vast and boundless, but in our eyes, they are just a corner of the land. In this corner of the land, the common people fight for wealth, reputation, and power. Some fight for loyalty, some fight for orthodoxy, and the Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, West, and Eastern Han dynasties change over and over again.”
Li Xuanling ignored Cao Cao's lofty ambition and poured a bucket of cold water on him. Although his words were calm, it was this calmness that made Cao Cao smile bitterly.
He thought that his horizons were broad enough, but he could not truly look down on the world. He would probably never be able to learn such a high and mighty attitude in this lifetime.
"Hearing the words of the Exalted Immortal, mortals like us seem to be like ants.”Cao Cao pondered for a while and suppressed the doubts in his heart. He asked a question that he had never thought of before.
"Heaven and earth are heartless and treat all living things as straw dogs. Under heaven and earth, what's the difference between all living things? The only difference between you and me is that I have some power that ordinary people can't control. How can I be as arrogant as an ant?”
"Then why did the words of the Exalted Immortal look down on the lives of the people? Meng De couldn't understand why he was so detached from the world and said that all living beings were equal.”
"All humans are destined to die. Life and death are the cycle of reincarnation, and all living things flourish. Although I am not a wise person, I understand that this cycle of heaven and earth has its own karma.”
Li Xuanling looked at Cao Cao with a surprised expression. These questions didn't seem like they were asked by mortals. Instead, they seemed like questions that only cultivators would ask.
Li Xuanling smiled when he saw Cao Cao's pensive expression. He knew that his words had caused Cao Cao to be caught in a roundabout way. The world was in order, and Cao Cao was just a member of this cycle.
Along the way, Cao Cao didn't ask any more questions. He only quietly thought about the Samsara Proposition. He knew that this was a fact that was somewhat difficult for Cao Cao to accept.
Humans were just a member of the cycle of reincarnation, repeating the same story and struggling endlessly in the cycle of reincarnation. He didn't ask what was on his mind during this trip, but instead, he added more doubts.
When he arrived at the Jade Void Immortal Mansion in the sky, Cao Cao, who was deep in thought, finally came back to his senses. He looked at the Immortal Mansion that did not look like the human world at all. It was as if Granny Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
Li Xuanling walked to the corridor in the courtyard and sat down on a long bench. He raised his hand and took out a few spiritual herbs from the system warehouse. After crushing them with his fingers, he threw them into the pool.
The golden fish in the pond smelled the strange fragrance of the immortal grass and poked their heads out of the water one after another. They had a fighting posture and it was very lively.
"Time is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit. Meng De, look at the fish in this pool.”Li Xuanling twirled the immortal herb with his fingers, and a few fish couldn't help but leap high into the air, fighting over it.
