Chapter 70: Who Holds on to Eternal Life?
The Thousand Witch Maiden is the head of the Heavenly Witch Clan, and her cultivation when this mysterious master found her had already reached the realm of knowing her fate. In the Tianwu clan, the head of the witch is not the patriarch, but it has always been the youngest and highest cultivation person in the clan. The responsibility of the head of the witch is to supervise and teach the cultivation of the people within the clan, which is equivalent to the status of the master among the practitioners, and it is also like the Dharma seat in the great temples of Buddhism. In many senses, the authority of the witch head is much higher than that of the patriarch who handles the chores of the clan, and it is also more supported by the people of the clan.
The Thousand Witch Maiden did not answer the master immediately, but used her fate to turn her magic, tracing back to the other party's divine thoughts, trying to find the location of the master and figure out who was pretending to be a ghost to her. But it was good not to be tempted, but this temptation really scared her. As soon as she looked over, she found that the other party's mind was erratic, coming from all directions, and she couldn't tell where it came from. When she urged the divine power to cast a spell for further pursuit, she was surprised to find that the other party's divine thought actually came from her own primordial spirit.
The Thousand Witches hurriedly collected the magic spells, and did not dare to move the slightest temptation. The other party's cultivation far surpasses her, and it is definitely not something she can provoke lightly. The most conservative estimate is that the other party's cultivation should also be in the Zhitian Realm, and it will only be higher and never lower. Since such a master needs to hide his form and not show his true face, it can be seen that there must be something unspeakable, if he angers the other party because of his bold peeping, the Tianwu clan is afraid that he will be wiped out.
For a while, a deep fear arose in the heart of the Thousand Witches, and she regretted why she had tried the other party many times. In this way, the first thing to change is your own state of mind, and then in the next conversation with the other party, your state of mind will inevitably be affected by this. Just when he hesitated, the other party really sneered and told her if she wanted to spy on him. It is absolutely impossible to cultivate with her.
The Thousand Witch Female Ge was originally stubborn, but the matter had come to this point, so she simply picked out the origin of the master and asked the master directly. But the master still refused to answer, and only said that if the Thousand Witches wanted to ask again, then he would give up the Heavenly Witch Clan and go to find someone else. But at the same time, he also reassured the Thousand Witches. He would never do anything to the Heavenly Witch Clan.
That master was too wise, and knew that the Thousand Witches couldn't let go of the chance to let the whole clan get immortality, so he refused to relax in his words, forcing the Thousand Witches to have no way out. The Thousand Witch Maiden pondered for a long time, asking if the other party could tell her all the arrangements first, and then give her a day to think about it, and wait until tomorrow to reply.
The master was silent when she heard this, and the thousand witches were very worried, although it was only a few breaths, it made her feel that a very long time had passed. Just when she couldn't stand the desire in her heart and wanted to agree to the other party directly, the master finally spoke, and actually agreed. The Thousand Witches were immediately excited and thanked them repeatedly. Of course, the master didn't care about her words of thanks, but directly said his intentions!
It turned out that this master was going to refine a magic weapon, but he didn't say too clearly to the thousand witches what kind of magic weapon it was. It was only mentioned to her that the most difficult and crucial point in refining this magic weapon was that this magic weapon was already a half-finished product. It has all kinds of unimaginable mystical uses, and can be said to be the most mysterious magic weapon between heaven and earth. But you have to wait until you actually refine this magic weapon. It will take a long time to continuously attract the power of heaven and earth to refine it before it can finally be achieved. How long it will take, even he himself can't be sure. This is the most crucial point and the reason why this master found the Heavenly Witch Clan. He wanted the Heavenly Witch Clan to help him attract the power of heaven and earth to refine this magic weapon. Of course, as for the specific method of how to attract the power of heaven and earth, he will teach all the thousands of witches.
So how can the other party repay the Heavenly Witch Clan and satisfy them that the whole clan can obtain immortality? This master revealed to the Thousand Witch Maidens that the specific method is precisely in the wonderful use of this magic weapon. He told the Thousand Witches that this artifact had a purpose. When their clan attracts the power of heaven and earth to refine this magic weapon, some of the magic weapons will be stimulated, forming a strange magic circle enchantment within a certain range. As long as the Celestial Witch clan lives in this enchantment, they will never grow old, let alone die. It is equivalent to entering the realm of eternal life. Not only that, but the Heavenly Witch Clan can also borrow the power of heaven and earth to cast all kinds of spells in this enchantment.
In other words, if the Thousand Witches promised him and really did what the master told him. Then the magic weapon was formed, and the Heavenly Witch clan relied on the Heavenly Witch Clan to attract the power of heaven and earth to refine it, and the Heavenly Witch Clan relied on that magic weapon to form an enchantment to obtain the realm of eternal immortality. The two can be described as interdependent, and neither can do without the other!
The Thousand Witch Maiden frowned after hearing this, and when she heard this, she naturally had a few questions in her heart. The first is what kind of magic weapon is this, it actually needs the power of heaven and earth to refine, why can it have such magical power? What purpose does he want to use this magic weapon to? The second thing is why the other party doesn't do it himself, but instead wants to fake others, isn't he afraid that the Tianwu clan will make a mistake in the refining process, and even snatch this magic weapon? Third, of course, the other party only said the benefits of using this magic weapon, but he has not yet said whether there will be other disadvantages. The Thousand Witches would not think that there is such a perfect thing between heaven and earth, and everything has advantages and disadvantages. If you want to say that there are no drawbacks to such a big thing, I'm afraid that even a three-year-old child won't believe it.
Without waiting for the Thousand Witches to ask, the master had obviously expected these questions and took the initiative to explain. First of all, he explained why he couldn't refine this magic weapon by himself, not because he didn't want to, but because he couldn't do it, he couldn't attract the power of heaven and earth, which the Heavenly Witch Clan could do. However, as for why he couldn't attract the power of heaven and earth, he didn't say. As for the purpose of refining this magic weapon, he also omitted it. Then, he also said that he was not worried about what tricks the Heavenly Witch Clan would play, once this matter was carried out, the Heavenly Witch Clan could be said to be one glory and one loss to this magic weapon, so he was not worried about what tricks the Heavenly Witch Clan would play at all.
Even the third question was the one that the Thousand Witches were most concerned about, and the master did not hesitate to say it directly. Is there anything bad about this matter for the Heavenly Witch Clan? He calmly told the thousand witches, the problem is not nothing, but there is only one, it depends on how the Tianwu clan thinks about it!
A thousand witches' hearts were completely attracted to the past. I couldn't help but ask, what is the problem. The other party groaned slightly, and then said word by word, saying that the only problem with doing this was that once the magic circle enchantment started, unless it was taken out after the magic weapon was refined. Otherwise, the Heavenly Witch Clan would not be able to leave the enchantment one step away. In other words, the Heavenly Witch Clan will be imprisoned in the enchantment and will not be free!
When the thousand witches heard this, although their hearts were already turbulent, they were still silent on the surface. She took a deep breath and slowly continued to ask two questions. The first is who will take it out after the magic weapon is refined, whether it is the master himself, or his disciple's descendants, and what will be used as proof at that time? Since the Heavenly Witch Clan can only live forever with the help of the magic weapon enchantment, then when the magic weapon is successfully refined, what should the Heavenly Witch Clan do at that time?
The master replied that after the magic weapon is refined, it will be taken by the Lord of Destiny, as long as there is a Lord of Destiny between heaven and earth, it is a sign that this magic weapon has been successfully refined. Moreover, among the methods he taught to attract the power of heaven and earth, it also had the effect of summoning the lord of heaven and earth. As long as there is really a Lord of Heaven and Earth who comes into the world. Then this magic weapon will inevitably be refined, and the Lord of Heaven and Earth will inevitably come to the place where this magic weapon is. As for what the Heavenly Witch Clan will do when the time comes? The other party suddenly laughed twice. said that in fact, in the magic weapon enchantment, it is not really immortal, and when the Lord of Destiny takes out the magic weapon, it will bring them the real realm of eternal immortality.
The master said that he didn't continue to say, he never revealed a word about what kind of magic weapon it was, and finally just asked the thousand witches to think clearly. He will come back tomorrow this time, and then she will need to make a decision on whether to agree to the deal or not.
After saying that, the master was silent, and the Thousand Witches sensed that he had indeed withdrawn from his divine thoughts. It took some time to recover from the shock. Then she began to wonder how real this thing was, and whether it was worth doing. With the other party's cultivation, there is naturally no need to deceive himself into a small fateful realm, as long as he is willing, there are countless ways to control the Tianwu clan to work for him, but since the other party has chosen to say a qiē, it means that this matter has a certain degree of credibility.
Naturally, there is no need to think much about what kind of magic weapon it is, even if you ask, the other party will definitely not say it. So the key to the rest is, does this magic weapon really have such a function? Originally, it was difficult for the Thousand Witch to believe, but the other party mentioned the power of heaven and earth, and he even had a way to attract the power of heaven and earth, which made the Thousand Witch have to be a little suspicious.
But the problem is that the other party also said that this magic weapon will take a long time to refine, and there is no guarantee of when it will be refined. This is also clear to the Thousand Witches, but any successful refining of extraordinary magic weapons, in addition to the heavenly and earthly treasures, also requires the achievement of chance. It's just that if it's been too long, and the other party has also been annihilated in the years, then what's the point? Since he said that the formation of the enchantment can protect people from death, why doesn't it seem that he himself has the intention of entering the enchantment?
The Thousand Witches thought about it, and thought of countless possibilities at once. It is very likely that although the other party's cultivation is high, it has reached the time when the qi is about to run out, so it will not be able to attract the power of heaven and earth. Maybe the other party needs to hold on to the remaining life in a special way, and use this magic weapon to refine this magic weapon to the future Lord of Destiny, in order to seek some kind of future resurrection opportunity! It is even possible that the other party is in that magic circle, allowing himself to attract the power of heaven and earth, just to help him continue his life. Even the most bizarre thing may be that he is in fact the magic weapon......
Should I take this risk and promise the other party? After thinking about it for a long time, the Thousand Witch Maiden still came down to this simplest question. She immediately had all the elders and patriarchs of the Heavenly Witch Clan, as well as ten of the most prestigious members of the younger generation in the clan, gather together. Then the Thousand Witches told them all about it, and asked them to express their opinions.
Everyone was shocked by the news at first glance, but there was a hint of irrepressible excitement, and then they began to talk about it, and most of the words they said expressed all kinds of doubts and worries. The Thousand Witches listened coldly to everyone's words on the side, and never said a word. She heard it clear that although the elders, the young people and the patriarchs of the clan expressed their worries and doubts from various aspects, they had a common characteristic, that is, their doubts were only worried that this magic weapon would not make them immortal, and they were not unwilling to make this attempt and give up this great opportunity to fall from the sky.
Seeing that everyone couldn't get a result, the Thousand Witch raised her hand and made a quiet move, making everyone quiet. Then they heard the cold voice of the Thousand Witches, she only asked one sentence, and asked bluntly, if there was a 1 in 10,000 chance that they could really live forever, would they be willing to take this risk? Everyone held their breath, they could hear that although the voice of the Thousand Witches was cold, in this cold core was a suppressed volcanic rock flow that was about to erupt! Everyone put aside a distracting thought, and invariably made a sound from their throats, and each voice exploded after converging, and it was a deafening answer, yes!
When the Thousand Witch Girl said this, Lu Zheng couldn't help but ask: "Thousand Witch Girl, since you agreed, have you ever seen that senior and this mysterious magic weapon with your own eyes later?" (To be continued......)
