"A dao discussion?" Everlasting Sage looked at Jin Rou with serious eyes then laughed, "Young Friend, with your attainments in cultivation, it looks like you don't need any of it."
The sage was speaking the truth. As a capable being, he could more or less see through Jin Rou's power, albeit not fully. After all, Jin Rou was shrouded with a thick fog of mystery. He had to solve millions of mysteries first before seeing the actual capabilities of the young man.
Nevertheless, he knew that this was the type that he couldn't afford to offend. No, no one in Immortal was capable of offending him.
"Just a casual talk about dao. Nothing more." Jin Rou said, "So far, you are the strongest person I have met."
It was true. Of all the geniuses and old existences Jin Rou met, this Everlasting Sage was the strongest. Not even Mortheus, who put up a decent fight against him, was capable of contending against this sage.
"Thank you for the praise, but I don't deserve such." Everlasting Sage smiled wryly, "I am a mere normal man of the dao."
Perhaps many would be puzzled by what Everlasting said. However, to Jin Rou, he could fully understand what was the sage's intent in saying this, "What is the dao for you?"
"A never-ending path." Everlasting Sage answered without hesitation, "The dao has no such peak and end. It's endless and arduous."
"Yet many people are still choosing the dao." Jin Rou agreed with the sage's notion, "No matter how arduous the path is, countless men still want to embark on this path."
"That is because the dao is power. With power, you can weild the weather and command a legion. You can sweep through countless realms given enough time to grow. No one will be able to resist the temptation of the possible power it can bring." Everlasting Sage said softly, "Billions of years has passed, I have met so many people who differ from each other. They have their own reason why they choose the dao, however, their reasons could only lead to one single thing, power."
He paused for a moment and continued, "The dao is also bloody. You have to stomp on all the bones of your enemy before reaching the top. It was cruel, but it was only the way to get stronger. To get what you want. After all, mercy has no place in the battlefield."
"So millions of people have sacrificed themselves to have you attain your current realm right now?" Jin Rou asked. His question contained no malice and was just filled with curiosity.
The sage was silent for a moment before replying, "Millions? It is a generous estimate. Billions to trillions of people have died for my sake. In order to become a sage, there is so much to prove. Unlike those overlords hiding in their nests where they would only needed to kill."
Windking, by the sidelines, couldn't help but gasp when he heard this. Billions or trillions of people have died for the sake of Everlasting? Wouldn't it make him a sinner of the whole world if that's the case? Yet, he was still a sage, a savior and guardian of Immortal and being adored by countless of people. His history had been recorded in the official ancient annals of the prestigious clans and sects.
But when you think about the bigger picture, Windking had no idea about what happened there in the past. So he couldn't judge it. Moreover, he had no right to judge Everlasting. After all, countless people had to die for him in the past too. It was the cruelty of the world, "the winner takes all".
"I see. That's a large number of people." Even Jin Rou wa surprised. The dao was crueler than he expected. Nevertheless, he didn't brand the sage anything despite so many people had been killed. After all, it was the natural course of events.
"If I were given a chance to redo my life, I'd still choose this path." Everlasting's memories flashed through his mind and said, "I'd still choose to reach this height. No matter how many people had to be under my feet. No matter how many bones I had to stomp. I will do everything to become a sage once again."
Jin Rou was silent for a moment before saying, "Do you seek for immortality?"
Based on the dao title of the other party, he seemed to be fixated on how to gain an immortal life.
"Immortality isn't true." Everlasting shook his head, "Perhaps only the gods above has the capability to attain such a thing."
It would be a lie if he said he wasn't interested in this subject. Who wouldn't want an immortal life? He exhausted his resources and treasuries to find clues about it yet it was futile. It was within his expectations anyway.
"I thought that Neverland has some clues regarding it?" Jin Rou asked.
"If Neverland has that clues, I would have already gained it. Unfortunately, there is none here." Everlasting laughed, "Only loneliness could you find here."
Jin Rou looked at the eyes of the sage and found out that there's a tinge of sadness in his eyes. The sage had yet to severe his emotions and ties with the world, while most peak existences did so, so that no one would be able to stop them.
"Alright, that's enough. You really have to go now." Everlasting said firmly, "You must be aware that this isn't a place for you even with your level, Young Friend."
"I know. I know. We're leaving." Jin Rou waved his hand, "Will you participate in the incoming battle?"
"Do I have to?" Everlasting chuckled, "With Young Friend there, those dark monsters will not even be able to breathe freely in this world."
"I'm a mere passerby of this world. You cannot depend the fate of Immortal in the hands of a single person." Jin Rou shook his head. Of course, he would help even though he said this. He just didn't want Everlasting to sit back while many people were about to struggle in this fight.
