Chapter 47 Supreme Decision
"Very good. You are responsible for revitalizing the Demon Refining Island and avenging your master. The Yellow Springs Demon Sect still covets Xingyun Province. There will be places for you to contribute in the future. The important task of fighting against the Yellow Springs Demon Sect is entrusted to you. Don't let me down."

Li Qingque's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, the red sword behind him was ringing, and he solemnly agreed, which made Zhang Qian so angry that he stomped his feet secretly.

"Okay, I'm going to activate the Shangyuan Eight Scenery Palace. No one has entered this palace for a long time since Daoyi used it. However, there are still many disciples in the fourth palace practicing sword skills. Zhang Qian, if you can't hold on any longer, just shout and I will naturally lead you out."

Zhang Qian bowed to Li Qingcheng, and when he saw Li Qingcheng start to cast a spell and prepare to activate the Shangyuan Bajing Palace, he hurriedly pulled his senior sister aside.

"Senior sister, you...ah, I really have nothing to say. How could you be so fooled by the headmaster's words? Didn't I say that our Demon Refining Island is too weak now and it is not appropriate for us to show up to deal with the Yellow Spring Demon Sect?"

Li Qingque smiled slightly: "Why? You don't believe me?"

Zhang Qian rubbed his temples: "It's not that I don't believe you, but you also know the current situation of our Demon Refining Island. Besides, even if you agree to it, you have to put forward some conditions."

Li Qingque's peerless face suddenly became solemn and sacred, and a bright light faintly bloomed between his eyebrows.

"Junior brother, you know, you are a good person in every way, but your personality is totally incompatible with the way of swordsmanship! You have already strayed from the path of cultivation!"

Zhang Qian's expression changed, and he asked hurriedly, "What do you mean?"

"Kendo emphasizes perseverance and never giving up. I was able to cultivate the Dharma so smoothly and achieve the state of perfection in sword-making because of this perseverance. If I do as you say, will I still be myself?"

After a pause, Li Qingque saw Zhang Qian's thoughtful look and continued, "I, Li Qingque, have been practicing for so many years and have encountered countless dangers. I have even been on the verge of death several times, but I have survived all of them with this indomitable character. Back then, my master died in front of me, and the Huangquan Demon Sect has become a demon in my heart. As long as this demon is not destroyed, I will never have any chance to cultivate my soul in this life and practice swordsmanship. I will die with no regrets! Do you understand?"

Zhang Qian was greatly shocked. Li Qingque's words rang in his heart like a huge bell.

"Yes, Senior Sister's personality is different from mine. Although I gained the enlightenment of the Hundong Patriarch in the prehistoric world and my mental power has become very strong, my temperament has not changed much. I lack the determination to forge ahead, and I don't have the courage to be fearless and have no regrets for my own path. I still have the mentality of living from day to day on Earth, but now I am in the Xihuang world, embarking on the path of cultivation. This kind of mentality should not exist at all. Apart from myself, there is nothing else. I should focus on pursuing the path of cultivation."

At this moment, all kinds of insights flowed through Zhang Qian's mind.

After hearing what Li Qingque said, Zhang Qian suddenly understood, as if he was awakened. At the beginning, he was controlled by Li Qingque's sword net, and his life and death were only a thought away. At that time, he seemed to have realized something and his mind had changed. Now, after hearing Li Qingque's deafening voice, his change was more thorough.

Li Qingque's character is a true Taoist character, he is fearless and has no regrets even if he dies. Zhang Qian can't compare to him in this respect. "Haha, my ancient dragon loach is very weak in this life, and the Xihuang world is not full of innate spiritual energy like the prehistoric world, but I have the insights of the Hundong Patriarch, plus my relatively strong mental power. How far I can go in the future and whether I can achieve my goals depends on whether I have the supreme determination and the courage to move forward and be fearless."

Li Qingque didn't know that his words had such a great shock to Zhang Qian. He saw that Zhang Qian's eyes were dull at first, and then slowly became sharp, and he was a little confused.

"Sister, thank you for waking me up and making me understand many things."

Li Qingque smiled slightly: "Why thank me? Since I have accepted you as my junior brother, I will naturally guide you on the path of cultivation. You may not understand what I am saying now. After all, you have only been on the path of cultivation for a short time. You will slowly understand it in the future. Okay, the headmaster has activated the Shangyuan Bajing Palace, you should go quickly, and remember, you must be careful."

Zhang Qian nodded, turned around and saw the thousands of disciples watching behind him. He smiled confidently, turned around, and walked into the Shangyuan Bajing Palace through the gate.

Boom!
When Zhang Qian's figure disappeared, the door of Shangyuan Bajing Palace suddenly closed.

Zhang Qian only felt a flash before his eyes, and then he appeared in another world.

The world is golden, and the earth is made of shiny golden bricks. You can smell an enchanting fragrance with every breath, which makes people feel peaceful.

Looking up, there is no end to this world. In the sky there is a big golden sun, emitting vast golden auspicious light.

He took a light step and walked on the mirror-like golden brick floor. Fairy flowers fell from somewhere and appeared one after another.

"That is?"

Ten miles away from Zhang Qian, there appeared a magnificent temple.

The entire temple was golden, with auspicious clouds lingering around it. Pleasant bell sounds could be heard from the temple, echoing in the surrounding void.
