Starting With One Million Luck Points Novel - Chapter 582

Chapter 582 Awakening

The first statue appeared. This was a statue of a person dressed in blood-red, and his appearance couldn’t be seen clearly. One could only sense a murderous aura emanating from him. He held a saber in one hand and a sword in the other. From head to toe, the murderous aura was bursting forth, and he was extremely powerful. Even though Zhou Hao was very far away, he could still sense the powerful killing intent emanating from him!

After that, the second statue also appeared. This was the statue of an old man with a transcendent aura. His face was still unclear, but one could feel an extremely ancient power appearing on his body.

Finally, the third statue appeared. The third statue was a lifeless statue of a woman. Zhou Hao couldn’t see her face clearly, but he could sense that her aura of death was very dense, causing him to frown.

However, in the next moment, the woman’s body began to emanate boundless life force. As soon as that life force appeared, Zhou Hao seemed to see a garden. All of the flowers and plants began to revive, emanating intense life force!

Zhou Hao took a deep breath as he looked at the three statues, clearly confused. “The first one is filled with killing intent, and the killing intent is intense. The second one is ethereal, and I can’t quite understand it. As for the third one, it’s even stranger. Sometimes it’s lifeless, and sometimes it’s overflowing with life force. This… is even more confusing!

Having reached this point in his train of thought, Zhou Hao looked at the three statues and bowed deeply.

“Three Guardians, I don’t know your names, nor do I know if you are real or fake. However, as an Easterner from Planet Earth, I am full of admiration for you. I’m bowing for no other reason than to express my respect!”

After saying this, the three statues emitted a flicker.

The killing intent of the first statue became even stronger and spoke.

“I appreciate your kind intentions.”

The illusory aura of the second statue also condensed as it chimed in.

“I, too, appreciate your kind intentions.”

The third statue was also surrounded by an aura of death, but the woman spoke coldly.

“I appreciate your kindness, but… you don’t have to bow to me.”

Zhou Hao was delighted when he heard the three voices. Although the third statue’s words were a little strange, Zhou Hao was still very happy. He also felt confident.

“From what I can see, you have a strong saber art. You and I can be considered to be fated. After all, I specialize in killing. I’m the Killing Guardian. However, even so, I am not obligated to wake up for you.”

Zhou Hao was stunned for a moment, and then the statue spoke again.

“However, if you answer my question, I will wake up for you!”

“I want to ask you, where does your killing intent come from?”

This question was very strange. Zhou Hao frowned. He did not have an answer.

However, Zhou Hao thought for a moment and spoke.

“My killing intent… mostly comes from helplessness…”

“Helplessness? That’s a very strange answer. Tell me about it,” the statue said curiously.

Zhou Hao took a deep breath and said, “I’m not a person who likes to fight and kill. In fact, when I was in high school, I was a bad student who wasted my time. It was only after I stepped into the world of martial arts and gained the ability to protect the people around me that I started to feel proud. I know that what I’m saying has nothing to do with the question you’re asking, but I still want to tell you that I’m not a bloodthirsty person. I’m just helpless. People want to kill me. I can’t just sit around and wait to be killed. Mutated beasts attack and hurt my friends and family. I can’t just stand by and do nothing.”

“Thus, I can only say that my killing intent comes from helplessness. As long as there are other solutions, I will not choose to kill.”

Zhou Hao didn’t know if his answer was approved or not, but he knew that this was his honest feelings.

He did not like to take the initiative to kill. Sometimes, it was only because he felt helpless.

The same went for the mutant beasts. He was only guarding the border of the rift.

He had killed Buye and Blue because they had violated him. He could only do this. Looking back, Zhou Hao felt helpless.

However, after saying that, the statue burst into laughter.

“Your answer is like a child’s, but I have to say that I like your answer. I like your helplessness!”

“If you don’t kill for your own selfish desires, it means that your heart is pure, kind, and clean. That’s what true killing is all about. Fighting for protection, fighting for survival, fighting for responsibility.”

“I, too, didn’t want to kill anyone, but fate made me wield the saber and draw the sword. You’re very similar to me, very similar… So, you’ve passed!”

After he finished speaking, the statue gradually began to emit a strange power. Then, before Zhou Hao’s eyes, it gradually disappeared, turning into endless ashes that flew into the void.

Zhou Hao knew that the other party had awoken, but he had no idea where he had gone.

The second statue was an old man with a bizarre power and a transcendent aura. Zhou Hao felt like the other party was a stranger to him, an aura he had never seen before.

“That answer earlier was very interesting. After I heard it, I also found it very interesting.”

“My name is… Dao Cang. I am the Protecting Guardian. I’m afraid my question will be nothing like you’ve ever heard before.”

“What is Dao? What does Dao consist of?”

“I know you don’t have a concept, but I still want to ask you, what is Dao?”

“You can understand Dao as your bottom line. They are the principles that will persevere in the face of death. That is Dao, it is also… what your heart desires!”

The old man’s voice was ethereal, but when he spoke, Zhou Hao was stunned.

“What my heart desires?”

Zhou Hao had never thought of this question before. This question really surprised him.

“It’s fine. Just say what you want to say. I’ll listen to you.” The old man smiled and said.

Zhou Hao nodded and smiled.

“My heart… Actually, it’s like what I said just now. I’m not someone with great aspirations. When I was in high school, all I wanted was to get into a good university, have a good job, and date the girl I like. This is what my heart desires. This is what I want to do.”

“Slowly, I became stronger. I did what I wanted to do, but deep down, I still wanted to become stronger. I have many people I want to protect. If this is what you mean by Dao, then perhaps my Dao is… for my family, for my friends, for my life…”

Zhou Hao’s voice wasn’t loud, but the old man also laughed.

“Interesting. Interesting. As expected of a child. Very interesting. However, I can tell that everything about you is based on friends and family. Your heart is very kind. I already know your Dao. Therefore… I will also let you

pass!”
