Chapter 1266: The Master Tests, the Incarnation of Heaven
Master Song's words made Mo Fan's pupils shrink slightly, and then he smiled and said, "Why do you say that, Senior?"
"Don't you already have a Life Mountain on the Upside-Down Mountain?"
Master Song shook his head, looked at Mo Fan seriously, and said, "You should understand what I mean. The one with destiny mentioned by the ancient master is not a cultivator of the lineage of destiny, but a cultivator who is truly favored by the way of heaven!"
"So what I want to ask is, did the ancient temple master pass on those two magical treasures to you?!"
At this point, Master Song looked at Mo Fan expectantly. Seeing that he was silent, the light in his eyes became brighter, and he spoke again: "In the past, in order to suppress those celestial beings in the lower realm, the ancient temple master did not hesitate to extract the power of the two heavenly treasures, transformed himself into a sacred tree, connected with the way of heaven, and used the power of the law to suppress the celestial beings.
Later, the battle of Huntian ended, and you saw it.
The two treasures, including the Shura Fengyuan Formation Disk, disappeared together, but since the ancient temple master said that they would be left to the one with destiny, it must be correct!
As the greatest contributor to the Hunting Heaven War, you are naturally considered the Chosen One! "
Master Song's words immediately made Mo Fan frown, and he was not sure what the master meant by asking this question.
"Don't worry, my friend. I am not after the treasure. I just want to confirm this matter to ensure that there will be no accidents in the inheritance of the ancient master."
Seeing that Mo Fan remained silent, Master Song spoke again.
"Master, you are too kind. In the past in Feipeng Secret Realm, I did get a promise from Senior Gu that he would give me those two treasures. But later on, as you saw, all three treasures fell into the void cracks. It was a pity."
Mo Fan smiled bitterly and sighed. Seeing a flash of disappointment on Master Song's face, he continued, "But I believe that since it is Senior Gu's arrangement, I think those treasures will definitely return to the Upside-down Mountain in the future."
After hearing this, Master Song was slightly startled, then he looked at Mo Fan deeply and said with a smile: "Then I will borrow your good words."
The two drank tea and chatted for a while, then Master Song raised his hand and pointed to a thatched cottage, saying, "That house was where the ancient temple master practiced in seclusion. If you don't mind, you can practice in seclusion there for the rest of your life!"
"Thank you Master!"
Mo Fan nodded immediately after hearing this.
That day he went to the thatched hut to practice.
The thatched house was simply furnished, without even a bed, just a futon.
"It's worthy of being the place where the strongest man in the world practices, it's so austere!"
Even Mo Fan couldn't help but sigh after seeing this scene. At the same time, he felt that only a cultivator like Master Gu could truly devote himself to the common people of the world without considering his own interests.
But in this world, such people are always a minority.
Mo Fan shook his head, threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind, pondered for a moment, and then sat down on the cushion.
As soon as he sat down on the mat, the world in front of him suddenly changed!
The thatched hut disappeared inexplicably, and he seemed to reappear outside the Taoist temple.
"You finally came!"
At this time, a voice came into Mo Fan's ears. He subconsciously looked forward, but saw the back of a sloppy Taoist priest, and was immediately startled.
"Senior Gu?"
Mo Fan spoke subconsciously.
The other person turned around, looked at Mo Fan with a smile, and said, "It's you, Bai Xiaosu was right. I can feel the aura of the World Tree from you!"
This Taoist is none other than Gu Wuming, who should have died in the Feipeng Secret Realm long ago!
The peerless strong man who is known as the best in the world of Kyushu!
This surprised Mo Fan a little, but he soon realized something. His expression immediately returned to normal. He frowned and asked, "Senior, what is the world tree you are talking about?"
“In ancient times, there was a true divine tree in our world. It was the incarnation of the way of heaven and maintained the laws and order of this world. Therefore, it was called the World Tree.
Later, the gods came down to earth and the World Tree was destroyed, causing the laws to be in chaos. Finally, a terrible area was formed, which was called the Shattered Star Sea!
Just when people were in despair, a saint stepped forward and led the monks in the world to kill those terrible celestial beings.
The reason why the saint was invincible was because he got the core of the World Tree, which was also called the Tongtian Divine Tree. Later, the Tongtian Divine Tree became the inheritance treasure of our Taoist temple, named "Tongtian Sword"! "
Gu Wuming smiled and looked at Mo Fan, saying calmly: "Since I am willing to give you the Tongtian Sword, it means that the Xuanhuang Gourd is also in your hands, which means that you are a qualified successor!"
"Inheriter?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Fan looked at Gu Wuming in surprise, then pointed at himself with a strange look on his face.
"Yes, it's you!"
Gu Wuming nodded and said, "I think you have already seen that I am just an extremely weak remnant soul at the moment. I separated it before entering the Feipeng Secret Realm and deposited it on the enlightenment cushion.
Only the monks recognized by Master Song can sit on that cushion and see me.
And since you have the treasure bestowed by the main body, it means that the main body also recognizes you, and you are naturally the most suitable successor to my Taoist temple."
“Wait… you mean you want me to take over the Taoist temple?” Mo Fan was stunned when he heard that.
"Yes, to be exact, I want you to be the new generation master of the Upside-down Mountain!"
Gu Wuming smiled slightly, and when he saw Mo Fan frowning, he continued, "As long as you agree, all the cultivators in the entire Upside-down Mountain will obey you, even the masters of the major mountains are no exception!
And you will also receive blessings from heaven!
I have seen that you have not yet entered the holy realm. As long as you agree, you may be able to break through the holy realm in an instant and become the incarnation of the heavenly way in the world!"
Hearing the words "incarnation of heaven", Mo Fan's pupils shrank slightly.
"Boy, don't agree to this old man. If you really become the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao, you will never be able to leave this world again in this lifetime!
This old man wants you to give up everything and spend your whole life serving the Way of Heaven!"
At this time, Mr. Qian's cold laughter also sounded in Mo Fan's mind, which startled him.
"I appreciate your kindness, but I am not interested in this. Please forgive me!"
Mo Fan shook his head slightly and politely declined Gu Wuming's kindness.
"My friend, you must think clearly. If you become the successor of this poor Taoist, you will have everything, whether it is the power that dominates the world or the greatest power in this world, all of them will be in your hands!
Moreover, the reason why we cultivators practice cultivation is nothing more than to achieve immortality. If you become the master of the temple, you will be blessed by heaven. After becoming the incarnation of heaven, you will no longer be restricted by your lifespan.
The only thing you have to do is to maintain the order of the laws of this world. If anyone dares to challenge the way of heaven and wants to destroy all living beings, you should act on behalf of heaven and eliminate them!" Gu Wuming's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice.
"Senior, please don't force me. Your conditions are very good, even very tempting, but I yearn for freedom more!"
Mo Fan smiled bitterly and shook his head, then continued: "But rest assured, senior, I will never go back on my word. As for the inheritance, don't mention it again!"
"You..." Gu Wuming's face flashed with anger when he heard this, but he soon returned to normal and smiled bitterly, "I am too impatient. I really want to choose a qualified gatekeeper for the people of Jiuzhou."
"Since you don't want to agree, can you promise me one thing?"
"What's the matter?"
