Chapter 601: Those who cultivate immortality and finally die
"My way lies in [business]. It lies in [profit]."
Jiao Xiuyuan said with some emotion: "Everything in the world is for the benefit of others. The way of Shang is everywhere in the world."
"So I refine thousands of puppets and observe the profits and losses in the world to practice."
"The accumulation of assets is always very rapid in the beginning. It's almost a level every day, and my realm is also rising step by step."
"But after reaching a certain level, the expansion of [Qianli Hall] slowed down."
"My practice has been stagnant for a long time. I originally wanted to rely on the insights from this huge profit to be able to work hard and force promotion. But I didn't expect that I was still a little short of the mark after all."
"The so-called "looking at the mountains and running to death", I thought I was right in front of me, but I didn't know there were thousands of mountains and ravines ahead."
Li Fan listened to Jiao Xiuyuan's sigh and thought of the huge gap between Hedao and Hedao that he had seen not long ago, and also thought of the huge gap between Hedao and Immortality realms.
I couldn't help but feel appreciative in my heart and nodded slightly.
At this time, I heard Jiao Xiuyuan say: "Besides, I found that Shang Zhiyi, at the point where I am now, is already constrained and struggling. If you want to go further, it is really difficult!"
Without waiting for Li Fan to ask, he answered himself: "Take the last Puxian Zhenye incident as an example. Under an absolute ideal state, we could definitely make more. Purely from a [business] perspective Look, the price of Puxian True Leaves had risen to the sky at that time, and the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance controlled the Five Elements Great Cave Heaven, and the amount of Puxian True Leaves in it was extremely abundant, but a single announcement ruined everything. Back to the original shape.”
"It's for stability, not for self-interest..." Jiao Xiuyuan muttered.
When Li Fan heard this, he thought thoughtfully: "What Daoyou Jiao means is that profit must be earned from others. When it reaches a certain level, if you want to go further, you will inevitably have conflicts with other people."
"That's right!" Jiao Xiuyuan praised.
"If the opponent is weak, of course you can crush him to death directly. But if the opponent is a solid wall, you will end up with a bloody head if you run into it."
"At this point, you have to go around the wall."
"But this world is, after all, under the rule of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and the Five Elders Association. It is not easy to avoid the restrictions."
"Dancing in shackles is naturally a hundred times more difficult."
After hearing this, Li Fan smiled and said: "In this way, it is really not the fault of fellow Taoists. It is the fault of this world!"
"It's really unpleasant to be controlled by others. How about joining me, fellow Taoist, to overthrow the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and rebuild the world! How about that?"
Jiao Xiuyuan suddenly fell silent.
He looked at Li Fan with a strange look.
For a moment, there was an eerie silence between the two of them.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, you are joking."
"Haha, it's just a joke. Fellow Daoist Jiao won't take it seriously, right?"
After a moment, the two voices sounded at the same time.
Looking at each other, the two chose to skip the topic.
"Speaking of which, in your mind, fellow Taoist, what will it be like if you develop to the extreme?" Li Fan asked.
Jiao Xiuyuan pondered for a moment and answered slowly: "The total amount of assets in the world is limited. Those who gain will get richer, and those who lose will always be poor."
"If I continue to make profits, the wealth in the world will continue to flow to me. Then one day..."
"Perhaps I alone have more wealth than the rest of the world combined."
Jiao Xiuyuan's eyes showed longing.
Unexpectedly, Li Fan chuckled after listening.
Jiao Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows: "Why, what do you think, fellow Taoist?"
"It's smaller, the pattern is smaller. I thought Daoyou Jiao was the most intelligent person in the world, but I never thought..." Li Fan shook his head slightly, looking very regretful.
"Huh?" A trace of gloom flashed in Jiao Xiuyuan's eyes.
"If it is really the ultimate, why do people in the world still have assets?" Li Fan said with a slight smile.
"Shouldn't it be that all the things in the world belong to fellow Taoists? Do the rest of the people owe it to fellow Taoists?"
"Fellow Taoists, please note that the total amount of wealth in the world must have an upper limit. But..."
Li Fan said in a solemn tone: "There is no upper limit to the amount of money owed by others to fellow Taoists."
"One hundred, one hundred, one thousand, one trillion, can be accumulated infinitely."
"Not only in this lifetime, but also in all lifetimes and countless descendants, we have to work forever to repay the debt we owe our fellow Taoists!"
Li Fan's words were like thunder, hitting Jiao Xiuyuan instantly.
The haze in his eyes instantly dissipated, and his face was filled with shock.
"return……"
"Can it still be like this?"
What Li Fan said seemed to open a whole new world for him.
His eyes were confused for a while, then became brighter and brighter, and he became more and more excited.
After a while, I seemed to have an epiphany.
"Not bad!"
"For a while, profits are limited after all."
"But time is infinite. If the goals I want to achieve are distributed over the long river of time..."
Jiao Xiuyuan was immersed in his own fantasy, his eyes filled with color.
"Fellow Taoist Li Fan, is this the way you have deduced for me in the future?"
After a long time, he finally came back to his senses and looked at Li Fan.
Li Fan shook his head: "I don't dare to give you any advice. It's just a glimpse of the possible future that I saw one day during my daily deductions."
"I felt in my heart that maybe this world would be of benefit to Fellow Daoist Jiao, so I wrote it down."
"I saw my Taoist friend today, so I just took it out and shared it with him."
"Fellow Daoist Jiao, just don't think what I'm thinking is ridiculous!"
Jiao Xiuyuan's eyes flashed: "My fellow Taoist's ability to deduce is truly shocking to the past and present. He can actually predict such a weird future."
"However, Taoist friend came to see me today and specially assigned me..."
He looked at Li Fan, a little confused.
Li Fan smiled: "I said, fellow Taoist, you have become rich and have turned your back on others, but you still don't admit it."
"Fellow Taoist, could you have forgotten my previous entrustment?"
Jiao Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses.
"You mean..."
"With the cultivation level of fellow Taoist, it is impossible to forget. However, since there has been no reply for such a long time, I guess there is something unspeakable. However, this matter is still a bit important to me. Therefore, I can only be shameless. , I’m bothering fellow Taoist Jiao!” Li Fan cupped his hands and said solemnly.
Jiao Xiuyuan looked at Li Fan, and his expression changed in an instant.
Five years ago, he promised Li Fan to help find out the identity of the ancient monk the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance was looking for while digging around for the remains of ancient sects.
He did.
At first I didn't take it seriously, I just wanted to get some information and deal with business.
But what surprised him a little was that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, which had always been leaky, had trouble keeping any secrets.
The confidentiality work this time was carried out surprisingly well.
It was him who had been searching for a year or two, but he had gained nothing.
