The blood demon's screams radiated in Zhou Baopu's sea of blood, but Zhou Baopu could not hear it no matter what. How could he imagine that Zhou Baopu, a disciple who had just entered the Tianfu Tower, could reach such a point with the help of the remnant soul of the Tianfu ancestor.
It was such a huge project to build a talisman array with one hundred and eight talisman roots. However, a small and inconspicuous Zhou Baopu achieved such an achievement with the help of the remnant soul of the ancestor of Tianfu. The occurrence of this kind of thing was completely beyond the expectations of the Blood Demon Ancestor.
"I have killed countless people in my life and stepped on the corpses of countless people before I reached the pinnacle of my life. I became a blood emperor, and everyone shunned me. But what did I get in the end?" I don't know why
. , as if he was repenting, the last remaining soul of the Blood Demon was actually at the last moment, and he seemed to have repented in his heart.
"I believe that in the Blood Sacrifice Continent, strength is respected and the weak eat the strong, so I created the Bloodthirsty Corps and ruthlessly plundered the flesh and blood of others before reaching the realm of the Blood Emperor. But in the process, what did I gain in the end? For these reasons, I have no wife, children, or friends, and even the disciples I have accepted are just a means for me to achieve success." The
Blood Demon Ancestor did not realize that in such remorse, his remaining soul The black mist inside was quietly fading. Moreover, there seemed to be a golden light faintly. The Blood Demon didn't notice this, and if he did, he might be even more surprised.
The golden glow in the soul is obviously a sign that only appears after a righteous person reaches the level of Blood Emperor. But now that these things have been discovered in the soul of the Blood Demon Ancestor, it does seem quite strange. The blood demon ancestor's heart suddenly tightened, and he regretted the path he had taken in the past.
He followed the path of killing throughout his life, killing gods when gods stood in his way, and Buddha when he stood in the way of Buddha. But he didn't expect that at the moment when the remnant soul was about to dissipate, he would actually regret it. This is simply impossible. In fact, if you imagine it, it is not difficult to understand that there may be only a thin line between the devil and the Buddha.
A Buddha in the heart is a Buddha, and a demon in the heart is a demon.
But what is the heart?
It’s nothing more than human thoughts.
So after a series of events, and after seeing Zhou Baopu's trust in Patriarch Tianfu and his vigilance towards him, Patriarch Blood Demon suddenly understood. It turned out that as far as Zhou Baopu was concerned, he had already fallen behind in the contest with the ancestor of Tianfu.
Zhou Baopu is very reluctant to become a demon, even if it represents great strength, but judging from how bored Zhou Baopu is with him, Zhou Baopu dislikes him very much.
As for the ancestor of Tianfu, Zhou Baopu's attitude was completely different. He had never seen Zhou Baopu angry at the ancestor of Tianfu. Never seen it even once. After thinking about the death of Patriarch Tianfu, the Blood Demon Ancestor realized that living may not be eternal.
And everything the Blood Demon Ancestor did was undoubtedly thinking about living. In order to live to be superior to others and to gain respect from the world, he did many bloody things. Naturally, everyone shunned him when they saw him, but now he was confused and suspected that it was not the respect others showed him.
Perhaps that respect, as the right people say, is a kind of fear.
Fearing him and then respecting him is not a bad thing. But often when he leaves, those who once feared him will express extreme resentment towards him. Of course he knew these resentments. It is precisely because of these resentments that he has committed countless murders.
After his death, he left people with resentment, but after the death of Patriarch Tianfu, he left people with respect.
One is respect, the other is resentment. Which one is better and which one is worse?
The time you are alive is always limited, but the time after death is infinite. The blood demon ancestor didn't think it was a big deal to exchange limited glory for infinite resentment, but after seeing the death of the ancestor Tianfu and sensing that his own life was not long ago, he suddenly seemed to understand this. .
It was like an epiphany, it just became clear. For no reason, the Blood Demon Ancestor was immersed in deep self-blame and regret.
At the moment before his death, he finally understood that living could not be eternal, only death would be eternal.
Everyone, no matter how powerful they are, even if they reach the blood emperor level like him and Tianfu Patriarch, although their souls are immortal, they will fall into deep sleep for some reasons. And this sleep is like death. Time flies and no one will remember them anymore.
No matter who you are, you always have to go from life to death. It can be said that when a person lives, he is preparing for death. Because life is short after all, and death is eternal. The Blood Demon Ancestor felt that he seemed to be putting the cart before the horse.
While he was alive, he undoubtedly lived a wonderful life. Thousands of people knelt down and worshiped, and tens of thousands of people admired him. Wherever he goes, no one dares not to welcome him; no one dares not to obey what he says; no one dares not to offer what he loves. Enjoy all the glory and wealth in the world, sleep with all the beautiful women in the world.
But what did he get after death?
Although he didn't want to see it or think about it, it didn't mean that he hadn't seen it or thought about it. The world's evaluation of him is undoubtedly extremely bad. He is a demon. Although he is called the ancestor, it is out of fear, not respect.
Even among his disciples and grandchildren, how many will remember his kindness?
Kindness is too luxurious for a demon cultivator. These things are just a legend to them. Even if you show kindness or love, it is all for your own purpose. However, such kindness cannot be called kindness at all. Because they themselves are no longer pure. Impure favor is not called favor, but a bargaining chip for the exchange of interests.
Of course, the talisman array composed of one hundred and eight talisman roots formed by Zhou Baopu naturally cannot kill the big devil, the blood demon ancestor.
But after seeing the death of Patriarch Tianfu, a feeling of sympathy emerged from the heart of Patriarch Blood Demon. Under this sudden enlightenment, he has almost become the most profound Buddha in the world. Because he has seen all the greatest evil in the world, what he has achieved is the greatest Buddha in the world.
Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately.
In fact, if you want to become a Buddha, it does not depend on whether you can let go of the butcher knife, but on whether you can suddenly realize that death is more meaningful than life. Death is eternal and life is temporary. The world after death is the real beginning.
After understanding this truth, the Blood Demon Ancestor's mood suddenly became brighter.
Once you let go, you will gain clarity; if you gain clarity, you will gain enlightenment; once you gain enlightenment, you will make progress.
The ancestor of the Blood Demon lived a bloody life, but he realized that he would live forever. Life and death, life and death, the violent emotions in the heart of the Blood Demon Ancestor disappeared without a trace at the moment of the Blood Demon Ancestor's enlightenment. What followed was a great calm, so silent that one could hear the sound of Zhou Baopu's blood flowing.
Zhou Baopu was also shocked at this moment. Because he found that his body was surprisingly missing such a cool aura. Instead, there was a kind of genial sunshine-like warmth. Under this warm embrace, Zhou Baopu almost screamed out of comfort.
