“But why is there no life here?”

At this moment, Jian Duzun frowned, “Isn’t the Time Clan a living existence?”

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of everyone in the hall flashed. Chen Xiao directly released Force of All Ways and began to explore the surrounding void. After a moment, scenes appeared in countless Time Stones.

These scenes were all scenes of figures sitting down one after another. As they sat down, they also turned into time stones.

“Everything will eventually be destroyed. Only time will never die. Our clan has been born from time, extinguished, and in time, there will be a beginning and an end. I only hope that the power we have left behind can be transmitted to existences that are truly beneficial to all living beings.”

An aged voice rang out. In the next moment, the countless scenes of evolution disappeared. The people in the Heavenly Devil Sword Tomb were also speechless.

They could already tell that the Time Clan was sitting down.

“So the Time Clan is all dead.” “I thought they were still alive,” Yue Zhentian said with a complicated expression.

“Only time is immortal. All the will born from time will die, because they are time itself.”

At this moment, Chen Xiao said indifferently, “So, this isn’t death. It can only be said to be a return to endless time.”

“Is there really no immortality?”

Jian Duzun said solemnly.

“Life and death are immortal in themselves. Therefore, all living things are actually immortal. Death and rebirth have always existed in one body.”

Countless streaks of light flashed across Chen Xiao’s eyes.

As soon as these words were spoken, endless sorrow began to fill the hall. The martial artists in the hall had gone through countless hardships and had come to this point. They were pursuing eternal immortality. However, they had truly seen the Time Clan sit down. At the same time, they also felt that all their cultivation was meaningless after hearing Chen Xiao’s words.

“Immortality is not the meaning of martial cultivation.”

Chen Xiao sensed everyone’s mood at this moment and said indifferently, “Victory over oneself is the true meaning of martial cultivation.”

The moment these words were spoken, everyone’s eyes lit up, but in the next moment, they became gloomy again.

Chen Xiao’s words were very inspiring and reasonable. However, it was very difficult for them to truly change their pursuits and ideas.

“I can understand the difference between our pursuits and reality, but this is the truth.”

At this time, Chen Xiao said again, “Fortunately, the truth is a very interesting thing. As long as you work hard enough, you can change the result.”

“The truth is the truth. How can it be changed?”

Jian Duzun shook his head. “It’s like one plus one equals two. That’s the rule.”

“Wrong. One plus one doesn’t necessarily mean two.” Chen Xiao smiled. “Perhaps it’s equal to three. If it’s a man and a woman, then together, it’s equal to three. Because they will create descendants, even equal to four, equal to a lot.”

“Future generations are future generations. We are us.”

Jian Duzun shook his head.

“Wrong. The descendants are us. We are the descendants.” Chen Xiao smiled and said, “The continuation of a bloodline is the continuation of life. The existence of one’s own will is merely the result of the pressure of one’s living environment. Therefore, in terms of immortality, the bloodline that continues is immortality.”

“Then is our self-will just deceiving ourselves?”

“Of course not. Self-will is necessary for survival, and it is also the carrier of goals.”

Chen Xiao smiled and said, “Our will will be passed on to our bloodline. Even if our bloodline cannot inherit our will, life is very wonderful. As long as we have our will, we will always be able to make the same choice as us.”

“What choice?”

“Pursue the immortal option.”

Chen Xiao pointed his finger, and an endless scene began to appear. Countless complicated characters and civilizations had evolved within.

“Ignoring everything, just looking at the power recorded in these civilizations and characters, we can see that they are also pursuing immortality. However, they were destroyed when they touched the most profound laws of time. Therefore, all civilizations are the same, and all lives are the same. The pursuit of the Grand Dao is always the same. This is precisely the truth.”

Seeing these scenes and listening to Chen Xiao’s words, the people in the hall became serious.

“Then what is the way out for our martial arts civilization?”

At this moment, Yue Zhentian said, “Do you want to be crushed by the Laws and become part of the long river of history when you touch the deepest immortal laws like those disappearing civilizations?”

“Perhaps, perhaps not.”

Countless streaks of light flashed across Chen Xiao’s eyes. “In the midst of endless destruction and rebirth, humans began to be born. We humans have inherited countless civilizations and countless spiritual pursuits. Then our choices need not be the same as before. Perhaps, we can find the same path as immortality.”

“What kind of path is that?”

“I don’t know yet.” Chen Xiao smiled faintly. “So, I have to become stronger before I can slowly search for it.”

“What if I fail …”

“Then I will fail.”

Chen Xiao smiled and said, “The road is long and its cultivation is far. We can only search up and down. We can only find the best. If we can’t find it, then we can do whatever we want.”

“This seems to be a very fragile idea.”

“No, this is a very strong idea.” Chen Xiao smiled again, “Do your best, listen to the will of the heavens, do what we can, and then welcome the future.”

Once these words were spoken, the entire hall fell silent.

Countless streaks of light flashed across everyone’s eyes, including doubts about the Grand Dao and fear of the unknown. However, in the end, they all looked at Chen Xiao, their eyes filled with hope.

What Chen Xiao said was something they had never heard before, but after hearing it, they felt that it was incomparably correct.

No one knew what the future path was. However, since the future was already in front of them, all they could do was choose to face it and welcome it.

As for the result, no one really cared about it.

“Life itself is a cultivation.”

Jian Duzun also revealed a smile at this time. “Because all life is destined to die from the moment it is born. However, no creature has ever given up on survival because it is bound to die. In my cultivation, it is my honor to meet you, Chen Xiao, and explore the unknown.”

“I am willing to follow Alliance Master towards the unknown,”

Hearing this, the people in the hall nodded heavily and said at the same time.

“Haha, not towards the unknown, but to make a choice.”

Chen Xiao smiled as boundless essence flashed through his eyes. “Perhaps Qiankun and the others also saw that life and death itself are immortal, so they chose to destroy life and death and achieve themselves. What they chose was destruction, and what I chose was hope. No matter what the fate of mankind is, I will choose hope.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall’s people were shocked, and all of their fear and unease disappeared!

Right now, they were only calm and quiet.

But what about the future? Choose hope.

From the moment Chen Xiao said those words, they had already known where the future lay.

Rumble!

Just as everyone was excited, an explosion suddenly sounded from behind them.

Countless terrifying auras were emitted, either deep or deep. As these auras were emitted, waves of terrifying auras began to fill the peaceful world of time!

“Those experts are here.”

At this moment, Jian Duzun’s eyes narrowed. Immediately, everyone in the hall looked towards the back and saw several tall figures descending from the passageway!

Chen Xiao also glanced at it and revealed a smile.

“Just because we chose hope doesn’t mean that we will be able to eliminate the difficulties. Now that our difficulties have come, we can only deal with them.”

“Not bad!”

Yue Zhentian nodded heavily. “Many of them are Heavenly Emperors! Among them are Ao Taixu, Heavenly Emperor of Xingkong, and the Sun Moon Heavenly Emperor! Jiang Yanyun has also come, bringing along a large number of experts. They have obviously observed us for a long time, locked onto our aura, and barged in.”

“Next, there will be a great battle.”

Jian Duzun nodded his head and pulled out the sword behind him with a move of his palm. Infinite sword energy began to be released.

“This is a collision of choices. It is also a life and death crisis for us.”

“Yes.”

Chen Xiao nodded. “Right now, I already feel the enormous amount of energy in the depths of this world. After absorbing this energy, I will definitely be able to become a Heavenly Emperor. Therefore, I need to go there. As for these people, I hope that you can help me contain them.”

“Alright!”

Jian Duzun nodded. “You chose hope, and we chose you. You are our hope. Next, we will do our best to block these people and hope that you can quickly become a Heavenly Emperor.” “I will definitely become a Heavenly Emperor, because I am the person chosen by all living beings, and I am also the person who chose the future.”

Chen Xiao smiled and threw the Heart of Time to Old Man Time.

“The Heart of Time is the key to this world of time. You can unleash the power of time. With this, your strength will greatly increase. I believe that you can resist the power of the Heavenly Emperor as well. Stall for as long as you can. Of course, if you really can’t, then retreat. Life first, I will take care of everything.”

“Alright.”

Old Man Time caught the Heart of Time and nodded heavily. At this moment, Chen Xiao nodded to the people in the hall again. In the next moment, his body moved and he directly left the hall. He turned into a streak of light and rushed outside.

“Battle! Buy time for the Alliance Leader!”

Jian Duzun shouted, Infinite Sword Qi poured into the hall. At the same time, countless experts in the hall, as well as countless disciples of the Alliance of All Lives, began to circulate their energy into the hall. Immediately, the entire hall began to tremble, and boundless power of time, Heavenly Demon Force, and Sword Dao Qi began to erupt. They all rushed towards Ao Taixu and the other Heavenly Emperors who had just rushed in!
