I am your natural enemy.

Chapter 669: Innate Truth, Go with the Flow
In less than ten minutes, three people were squatting in the corner of the ward.

There are two warriors, and the other one is an ordinary person who has never practiced martial arts and is not a professional.

Two warriors sneaked in and wanted to kill him, but the ordinary man, still wearing a white coat, wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to change the old master's medicine into a bottle of saline solution with added ingredients.

Now all three of them had empty eyes, hugged their legs, leaned against the wall, and squatted there motionless.

The old Taoist priest didn't ask anything, and didn't even spread the news. He just asked the three people to squat there quietly.

His physical condition was really bad. According to the hospital's examination report, he not only had severe osteoporosis, but his internal organs were almost failing.

If an organ fails to this extent, there is no other option except organ transplantation.

All of his internal organs are failing, so it is indeed quite appropriate for him to live in the hospice department.

The old Taoist priest was on an IV drip. He turned on the TV, turned up the volume by two levels, then leaned back on the hospital bed and listened to the TV with his eyes closed.

After returning this time and truly experiencing it, he realized that it was indeed a bit of a stretch for him to leave the branch at this stage.

If we want to summarize and tell others how to follow this path in the future, we can't do it like him.

Otherwise, the final result will definitely be the same as a warrior entering the sixth stage, a life-and-death situation.

Nine of them died on the spot, and the one who survived was basically unable to take care of himself and was paralyzed all over. It would have been better for him to die.

The old Taoist priest was just thinking about it when the young nurse came in to change the dressing.

Seeing the old Taoist priest open his eyes, the young nurse immediately said.

"Uncle Zhang, how are you feeling? Are you feeling better today?"

"Yeah, much better."

"It seems to be true. You seem to be in better spirits today."

The young nurse changed the medicine skillfully and I was not too surprised. Patients who can stay here sometimes have a different mentality and completely different feelings.

It's just to add some energy. If it has a great placebo effect, everyone will be happy.

I have been working here for a few months and have seen a lot. Today, there was a patient who got discouraged and passed away that evening.

I have also seen patients who were unable to eat or drink and could only hang on to glucose, but managed to hold on for half a month in extremely poor physical condition, and finally died with a smile on their face after their wish was fulfilled.

The young nurse was bright and cheerful, full of youthful energy. She chatted with them for a few words, and the old master also became happy.

In this department, most of the patients who come are doomed to die, and they all come mentally prepared.

Since the establishment of the department, a lot of experience has been summarized. These patients do not like to see the medical staff here with serious faces.

They all know that they are going to die, and they come here just to relieve the pain of dying. They don't like anyone reminding them that they are going to die every day.

The atmosphere was not so dull and serious. Instead, they felt like they were still alive, or at least living with dignity before dying.

Furthermore, those who can get in here basically don’t have to worry about the doctor-patient relationship.

After changing the medicine bottle, the young nurse turned and left, as if she didn't notice the three people squatting in the corner.

As soon as the young nurse left, the old Taoist priest leaned on the slightly shaking hospital bed with his eyes closed.

The door of the ward was pushed open again, and the atmosphere around it changed slightly. The sounds in the corridor seemed to be floating from far away.

A man in a Taoist robe walked in from outside the door.

The Taoist priest looked to be in his sixties. After he walked in, he saw the old Taoist priest lying on the hospital bed, skinny as a stick, with sunken cheeks. He was completely different from the old Taoist priest's usual self. The old Taoist priest's expression changed slightly.

Before the old Taoist priest came in, he had done enough psychological preparation and felt that his heart was as hard as ice and nothing could shake it.

When he actually saw the old Heavenly Master at this moment, he was certain at a glance that the dying person in front of him was definitely the old Heavenly Master.

His eyes couldn't help but change, and his mood fluctuated at the first sight.

The old Taoist priest slowly opened his eyes and saw the old Taoist priest with a hint of surprise on his face.

"I did think that someone might come, but I did not expect that it would be you.

Since you entered the mountains at the age of five, you have been working diligently and conscientiously for the past sixty years.

At the end of my life, I come here and ruin my own path for others. Is it worth it? "

The old Taoist's eyes instantly became more complicated. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"I dare not ask for forgiveness from the old master. I am selfish and have no choice but to..."

The old Taoist priest said something, was silent for a moment, and then changed the subject.

"It's useless to explain the reason now. What's the situation of the old master?"

"My body is on the verge of collapse, my internal organs are failing, and I have severe osteoporosis. I can only eat a little porridge at the moment, and I rely entirely on intravenous drips to replenish my energy and nutrition."

The old Taoist priest tells the truth.

After he changed his job, based on his own accumulation, knowledge, and practice, as well as his own deduction, he originally wanted to refer to the concepts in the Changshengtai Yuanshen Sutra and imitate Laozi's concept of the red child.

Then he absorbed some things from the Golden Immortal's Certificate and the Wisdom Life Sutra, using his own Taoist behavior as the trunk and the nutrients he absorbed as the branches, to practice the method of cultivating his true self and gathering the Nascent Soul.

But when I really arrived at the Sea of ​​the Dead and felt the wind of rest, I completed the missing part of my understanding.

As a result, when he was on the verge of death, he gathered his innate truth, spiritual essence, and the root of life, which was in line with the spirit of rest, the meaning of finding a way out of despair, and the meaning of enlightenment in the desperate situation of serious illness. At the last moment, he transformed into the primordial spirit, which according to his deduction should never appear at this stage.

Of course, the physical condition is indeed very bad.

The reason he didn't collapse before was because he relied on the realm control. Now he relies on the things given by Wen Yan to forcibly prevent the condition from getting worse. This gives him a possibility of recovery.

The old Taoist priest did not lie. He is lying here now and cannot get out of bed and walk.

The old Taoist priest who came in was even more upset when he saw that the old Taoist priest was still so calm.

"Old Heavenly Master, I'm sorry, I dare not use my magic in front of you..."

As he spoke, the old Taoist took out a small pistol the size of a palm from his arms. Even in this situation, he did not dare to get close to the old Taoist priest.

"Today, I will send the old Heavenly Master to heaven. This matter has nothing to do with others. After the old Heavenly Master passes away, I will commit suicide here and fall into the Five Hells from now on..."

The old Taoist priest raised his pistol and met the calm eyes of the old Taoist priest. His hands began to tremble uncontrollably.

He raised it for a few seconds but didn't dare to shoot. The old Taoist priest stretched out his other hand to steady the hand holding the gun.

The old Taoist priest looked at the other person with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

“If there were someone in the current Tianshi Mansion who could make a prompt decision and kill me the moment he got the news,

Then he used thundering methods to intimidate others and seize the position of Heavenly Master.

Then I think it's acceptable, at least it's not trash.

As long as he is not a waste, under the current circumstances, there is hope that the Taoist lineage of the Tianshi Mansion will not be cut off and decline.

I won’t ask who you are fighting for the position of Heavenly Master.

I want to do it, but I'm not decisive enough.

Now that I have done it, when the time comes, it is difficult to keep calm.

Even if you are possessed by a demon, at least you will be convinced that what you are doing is right, and there must always be support.

Even if he is a real villain, he should be more decisive and ruthless at this moment.

This behavior is neither left nor right, neither righteous nor evil, and it is not even considered as that of a hypocrite.

It’s really garbage.”

The old Taoist priest spoke in a slow and unhurried voice; he was genuinely a little disappointed.

He was not surprised to see people from Tianshi Mansion show up, but with their behavior, he felt that the next generation was ruined.

It’s better to seize the time and see if we can cultivate it again.

Having been guarding the cliffs in the sea of ​​clouds for decades, I may have indeed neglected the issue of teaching.

Even if someone in the Tianshi Mansion was extremely rebellious and practiced the ways of the devil, he could accept it. The only thing he couldn't accept was that among the people who were expected to succeed him in the Tianshi Mansion, there was a waste.

"Old Heavenly Master, please don't ask me. I won't tell you who I am doing this for."

The old Taoist's tone began to become hurried, and his expression began to change drastically.

Stimulated by the old Taoist's words, his emotions became more and more agitated.

Suddenly, his gun went off accidentally, and with a bang, a bullet hit the hospital bed.

The old Taoist priest looked at the small hole that exploded in the quilt and was stunned for a moment. When he saw the blood, he immediately gritted his teeth and emptied the magazine in front of the old Taoist priest.

When he saw that the old Taoist priest was shot in the forehead and was lying there motionless, he took two steps back, leaned against the wall, collapsed, and his eyes gradually became empty and blank.

On the hospital bed, the old Taoist priest turned his head slightly, looked at the extra bullet holes on the bed next to him, and sighed softly.

If he doesn't want to die, ordinary people can't kill him even in his current state.

The intention emanating from the invisible is enough to influence others.

Especially when facing a life-and-death crisis, he doesn't need to do anything, the impact will come naturally.

This will happen unless he actively seeks death.

There is a qualitative difference between his life essence and that of others.

The old Taoist priest closed his eyes and continued to lean there, listening to the sound from TV.

A few minutes later, a dull sound was heard.

The fierce yang energy was like a huge wave, hitting indiscriminately.

Along with the terrifying yang energy, a fist punched through the ward door.

This simple and brutal blow, accompanied by pure and huge force, directly shattered some concealing means set up here.

The door of the ward was taken down directly, and after Wen Yan came in, he put the door aside.

When he saw three people squatting in the corner of the ward and an old Taoist priest slumped there, his eyelids twitched slightly.

After coming in, I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that the old Taoist priest didn't seem to have changed.

"Old Master?"

"Nothing." The old Taoist priest opened his eyes with a calm expression.

Wen Yan looked at the old Taoist priest lying on the ground, and swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. He didn't know what to say.

"Old Heavenly Master, is your health condition really that bad?"

"real."

"So how did you do all that?"

"I didn't actually do anything, it's just that they couldn't kill me."

"Can you stop being a riddle man? Say something I can understand."

"When they have murderous intentions towards me, they will be sensed by my soul, and they will no longer be able to kill me, unless they use a large-scale weapon to raze this place to the ground, leaving no trace of my body."

"I'm well-educated, old master, don't lie to me. There is no primordial spirit in the practice of Taoists... er, cultivators?"

The old master nodded.

Wen Yan was surprised and happy, and was about to say, "Can you teach me? Isn't the purpose of opening up the source of truth for these things?"
But as soon as the thought came to him, he calmed down immediately.

Fuck, what does the soul have to do with him!

Even if he didn't understand what the primordial spirit was, he knew that it was definitely related to the soul.

If it has something to do with the soul, it definitely has nothing to do with him, and he probably won’t be able to learn it.

"Do you want to learn?" the old Taoist priest asked.

"Of course I do. Whether I can learn it or not, I want to learn it." Wen Yan replied honestly.

"Okay, I'll teach you later."

"But... can I learn?"

"we'll talk about it then."

Wen Yan couldn't help but have some thoughts and expectations in his mind.

Just give it a try anyway. Even if you can't fix it, it won't hurt to learn more, right?
He suppressed this little thought and looked at the person on the ground.

"Should I take these guys away, or does the old master have other plans?"

"Take them all away. Ask whatever you want."

"Does the old master have any more information to add?"

"No, I didn't ask anything."

"Then this...I'm afraid it involves the Tianshi Mansion."

"It doesn't matter. The few people in Tianshi Mansion who are now qualified to succeed are all out of the game. You can take them away and ask whatever you want. You can deal with them however you want."

Wen Yan nodded, held the two people in one hand, walked out of the ward, and reinstalled the door of the ward.

After taking the people out, Wen Yan stuffed them into the car.

The old Taoist priest was the first to wake up.

After regaining consciousness, the old Taoist saw Wen Yan and his whole body tensed up at first, then relaxed, and his entire demeanor also relaxed.

Seeing Wen Yan looking at him, the old Taoist said.

“I was born in the Tianshi Mansion, you can definitely find out.

I was the one who killed the old Taoist priest. I am a sinner.

As for the rest, you don’t need to ask me, I won’t tell you.”

Hearing this, Wen Yan's thoughts moved, and the words he had prepared were immediately overturned.

Did this old guy think he had killed the old Taoist priest?
"Who sent you here? Which of the Taoist priests in the Tianshi Mansion who has the potential to succeed you?"

The old Taoist shook his head and stopped talking.

Wen Yan continued.

"You think if you don't say it, it's over?

To tell you the truth, after something like this happened, none of those people would ever have any hope of succeeding.

No matter what their virtues, strengths, talents, etc.

The position of Heavenly Master has nothing to do with them anymore.

Don't look at me like that. If I say this, it must be true."

The old Taoist's eyes changed slightly, he lowered his head and said nothing.

Wen Yan immediately understood that it was indeed one of those people.

However, since it has come to this, I might as well just keep playing.

Wen Yan took out his cell phone and sent a message to Black Box.

Soon, a message reached the headquarters.

The old Heavenly Master was shot dead by an old Taoist priest in the Heavenly Master's Mansion.
