Chapter Sixteen: Divergence and Shadows
Leveraging Soren's power?
As soon as Adam's words came out, the field changed immediately. Song Tian and the weaker man and two woman were okay, but Yang Lie showed an obvious unhappy expression, and Luo Yinglong even shouted loudly.
"Damn, Adam, do you mean to surrender to Sauron and help him with things? Do you know what you are doing?"
"Of course I know that Luo Yinglong is just using each other. Could it be that you can't believe me?" Adam was not angry because of Luo Yinglong's loud shouting. On the contrary, he looked at Luo Yinglong with a smile, waiting for his answer.
"Of course I believe you...but I am a great disciple of Shushan! Although I am not the kind of sword cultivator in the movie, I am currently the only orthodox cultivator in Shushan, and I am worshipped under Shushan. And killing demons and eliminating demons is what every disciple of Shushan should do. Now you want me to cooperate with demons?" Luo Yinglong muttered in a low voice first, and then said loudly.
"I'm willing to let it go for a while, and take a step back and the sky is wide open. Luo Yinglong, just think this is an undercover operation. What's wrong with it? I promise you, when we use the power of Sauron to eliminate the Zhongzhou team, we will immediately turn against each other?" Adam continued to persuade: "Do you want us to destroy all of us here? I think the meaning of the main god is already very obvious, that is, to use the power of Mordor to fight against the Zhongzhou team. I think at least two other teams have been connected with the power of the elves, Rohan or the wizards, and may even discredit us as Sauron's reinforcements. We are innately at a disadvantage in terms of "power". Now, without the power of one of the two sides, should we rely on our own strength to become a third-party force? You must know that this time, in addition to the Zhongzhou team, the East America team is also an enemy that cannot be underestimated!"
"You...forget it!" Luo Yinglong's face turned red by Adam's long speech. He stomped his feet angrily, and stopped Adam, but looked at Song Tiandao beside him: "Song Tian, are you going to follow Adam to cooperate with Sauron? Where did your sword path go? This is your sword path?"
Song Tian said calmly, "I am different from you. My sword art is to challenge the strong. Martial arts are everything to me, and it has nothing to do with good and evil... Of course, I know what you want to say. I haven't completely let go of things outside of myself yet, so there is some resistance to working with Sauron. But this is also normal, because I haven't completely seen through the inner demons yet. When I let go of everything and pick up the sword in my heart, it's probably time for me to reach the fourth level intermediate level."
"I can't pretend that I didn't hear this. Song Tian, are you walking on the Forgetful Path?" Before Luo Yinglong could speak, Yang Lie, who was listening quietly, stared at Song Tian and asked first. His eyes were shining, just like two sharp arrows. Once someone touched his sight, he would feel a stinging pain.
"Whether it is the way of forgetting love or having love, what does it have to do with me? What I care about is that it can make my knife faster and stronger, that's all." Song Tian replied calmly: "I don't care what Adam does. Anyway, I know what he does is for our own good. In the past, I believed in him, but now I still believe in him."
"Hmph, I don't agree with your ridiculous martial arts. At best, it's just a weapon held by others. Even if you put down the most basic concepts of good and evil and values, what else can you talk about? Even as a person, you still want to practice the swords?" Yang Lie sneered.
"Whatever you say, Yang Lie, once he enters the fourth-level gene lock, he will be invaded by the inner demons, and at the same time he will determine his beliefs and the path he will take in the future." Song Tian closed his eyes and said lightly: "If you don't agree with my martial arts, that's your business. I have no reason to refute you, because you also have your own martial arts spirit. Whether it's a murderous sword held by others in the future, or a peerless treasure sword that constantly challenges the enemy to climb to the peak, that's the path I chose."
"Tsk..." Yang Lie turned his head with dissatisfaction. Since Song Tian had expressed such an attitude, it would be useless to say more. Regardless of whether Song Tian said it is right or not, or whether it makes sense, at least one of the truths revealed in his words is absolutely correct: everyone has their own way to go, and they also have their own beliefs. It is enough to be able to uphold their beliefs to the end and be worthy of themselves.
"It's you, Luo Yinglong, you are too persistent." Seeing that Yang Lie stopped talking, Song Tian turned to Luo Yinglong and said, "I heard that your cultivation is just about to put aside everything and ascend to become an immortal, right? If you are so entangled with these things, your future achievements may not be great..."
"Whether my future achievements are great or not, you can do it!" Luo Yinglong was extremely angry. Seeing that Song Tian was going to preach to him, he turned his back without hesitation.
After saying that, Luo Yinglong pinched a position with both hands, and the long green sword on his back suddenly seemed to hold it invisible hand, and slowly floated in front of him.
"Adam, go and cooperate with Sauron. I won't cooperate with those evil demons and heretics anyway... I'll be blessed!" Luo Yinglong was not polite either. He stepped on the sword of the long sword, looked at everyone present deeply, and recited a mantra in his mouth.
"Wait, Luo Yinglong..."
Before the golden-haired girl in the Gods Team finished speaking, the long sword under Luo Yinglong's feet flew out like lightning, and it flew hundreds of meters away in a few seconds. The speed was definitely much stronger than the Green Devil's skateboard. It didn't take long before it disappeared from everyone's sight.
"...Adam, is it really good not to stop him? He is one of the important combat forces of our God Team." Song Tian asked as he looked at Luo Yinglong's direction away.
"No, just like you said, everyone has his own way to go, and forcibly blocking him is not beautiful..." Adam shook his head, then looked at Yang Lie who was silent on the side: "Yang Lie, you think so too? Do whatever you want. Since I don't stop Luo Yinglong, I won't stop you."
"...The last time you lost to the Demon Team, I had not yet entered the God Team. This time I want to go to the Zhongzhou Team to see if he is as strong as you said." Yang Lie was silent for a while before he slowly replied: "Song Tian, I admit that I am very similar to you. Both of them like to challenge stronger people, and they will have no regrets even if they die. However, I will never become a person like you... absolutely not!"
After saying these words, Yang Lie carried his spear on his back. With a wave of his hand, a big fluffy white dog appeared beside him, which looked a bit cute. Then, he rode the big dog in the air and chased Luo Yinglong straight in the direction of Luo Yinglong. However, the speed was obviously much slower than the flying sword. After a long time, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
"So, can you come out? The messenger from Mordor?"
Seeing that both of them disappeared and the rest of the people had no intention of leaving, Adam smiled and looked at an empty tunnel behind him.
There was nothing in the open space, so that the remaining male and two females in the Tianshen Team looked at the open space, and then looked at Adam with confusion. But Adam did not waver at all, but continued to maintain a strange, indifferent smile without blinking, and Song Tian beside him was the same, but his face had no expression on his face, just like a rock.
“…How did you find me?”
Suddenly, a black shadow appeared on the clearing ground, and his body was like the shadow in the darkest part of the world, revealing the bottomless darkness. A woman from the Tianshen Team covered her mouth in surprise, because she did not detect anything there at all during the mental scanning, even now.
"Of course I have my own way." Adam's smile remained unchanged: "In fact, I also brought the news you want the most."
"What news?"
"News from the Supreme Lord of the Ring."
