I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 50: This world doesn't need people who possess great power

"Brother Zhang, you're a policeman, but you're so timid. I think you need more experience."

Zhang Changsheng was choked for a moment and had to change the subject.

"Tell me what you want me to do. Don't tell me and I'll chop you up."

"Yeah, that's right, I told you everything." He then took out the kitchen knife in his hand and shook it, "Look, I even have a knife with me, come on."

"No, tell me what's going on."

Xia Yuan had no choice but to tell his thoughts exactly as they were.

"???"

After hearing this, Zhang Changsheng thought it was just a fairy tale. Whether it was the speed or the strength, he could still accept it.

But to say that the flesh can withstand swords and guns is really too much of a myth.

But at this moment, a hint of anticipation arose in my heart.

"Come on, I'm not sure if I can withstand your full strength, let's start small and work our way up."

Zhang Changsheng nodded and took the kitchen knife with trembling hands.

In order to prevent himself from getting hurt, Xia Yuan still stretched out his right hand.

“I’m here.”

Xia Yuan nodded and motioned him to start.

Then Zhang Changsheng slashed at his arm with a knife.

The arm didn't move at all, and there was not a single scratch left on it.

Uh. It's just a little itchy.

"How hard did you use?"

"About 30%."

"Go ahead, step it up."

Immediately afterwards, another knife fell.

At this moment, there was a slight change. There was a mark on his arm from being cut by a knife, and there was also a slight pain.

But still unable to break through the defense.

"How hard this time?"

"I estimate it's 7%."

"Then use all your strength this time."

Xia Yuan was not worried about being seriously injured. Judging from the 7% force he used just now, even if Zhang Changsheng chopped him down with all his strength, at most a cut would be left.

"Or forget it."

"It's okay. Didn't you see it just now? Your strength wasn't enough to seriously injure me."

"Then I really came."

Zhang Changsheng gritted his teeth, used all his strength, closed his eyes and chopped down the sword.

Suddenly, a pain came from my right arm.

There was a crack about two or three centimeters long on it, and bright red blood kept dripping from the arm.

Xia Yuan frowned, not expecting the wound to be bigger than he had imagined.

This means that ordinary people can still break through his defense.

Moreover, there are many people in real life who are stronger than Zhang Changsheng, such as Du Yu and Li Zhengde, who are definitely stronger than him.

"You still have to be careful not to be too reckless. Don't use your body to block a knife unless necessary."

Xia Yuan secretly warned himself in his heart.

Zhang Changsheng didn't know what Xia Yuan was thinking, but when he saw everything happening in front of him, he was completely stunned.

When everything unfolded in reality, he no longer had the initial expectations.

Instead, a sense of fear began to spread in my heart.

Before this, even if he saw how powerful Xia Yuan was and how fast he was, he would only feel shocked, and it did not bring him such a sense of fear.

No matter how powerful a person's attack is, if he is hit by someone, he will be seriously injured or even die. With the weapons in modern society, there is no need to be too afraid.

However, all this will change when his defense becomes equally terrifying.

At that moment, he clearly sensed that if more people began practicing Xia Yuan's cultivation method and embarked on this path, the world would be transformed, and his previously peaceful life would be shattered. Even though he had never met any other so-called martial arts masters, Zhang Changsheng was certain that there would be no one like Xia Yuan in this world, nor would there be any such cultivation method.

Once this kind of cultivation method comes out, the only certainty is that mankind will embark on a completely different path from then on.

But no one can know whether it will bring opportunities or disasters.

"Xia Yuan, it's better that your cultivation method never be released to the public." Zhang Changsheng said this with a dry mouth.

"Oh, don't you want to practice?"

"I wanted to before, and I want to even more now, but I can't, and neither can anyone else."

Xia Yuan was stunned.

"why?"

Zhang Changsheng was silent for a moment, then looked up at him with a firm gaze.

"I suddenly felt fear."

"This reminds me of an adjective: great power belongs to oneself."

"I don't think the world needs any more people like that."

Hearing this answer, Xia Yuan's eyes were complicated.

It's not like he hasn't thought about this question.

Indeed, as Zhang Changsheng said, in such an era, it is not a good thing for people to take great power for themselves.

In a world full of ordinary people, once such a person appears, it will inevitably break the cognition of human society for thousands of years.

Especially knowing that this path holds the promise of longevity.

He just wasn't going to tell anyone about this secret.

Therefore, he had been hesitant about whether to pass on the awakening method. If he had not been able to practice it alone in the end, he probably would not have passed it on to anyone.

Even if he needed companions, he still decided to spread the word only in a small area and make sure he was far ahead of others.

He was unable to give Zhang Changsheng an accurate answer to this question.

"But are you really sure that there is no one else like me in this world? If I can have this ability, why can't others have it?"

“The world is so big, history is so long, none of us can be sure.”

Zhang Changsheng was silent.

He wanted to say yes, but the words stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them.

"Whether it's power or cultivation method, as long as it exists, there must be a reason for its existence."

"You overestimate me. I can't change the situation."

"In the face of the changing times, the general trend will never be changed by individual will."

"If an era truly emerges in which great power is vested in oneself, that will be the inevitable development of the world."

"Besides, I haven't yet perfected my cultivation method, so you don't have to worry about it right now."

After listening to Xia Yuan's words, Zhang Changsheng obviously understood a lot and his expression became much better.

"You're right. If that day ever comes, it's inevitable. It's not my place to worry about the future of humanity."

He then laughed at himself and said, "Maybe I won't even live to see that moment. This is completely groundless worry."

"Brother Zhang, you can't say that. If that day ever comes, once I perfect my cultivation method, I will definitely pass it on to you. You can also punish evil and promote good."

"Think positively. The future is long and exciting."

In order to prevent him from being too negative, Xia Yuan drew a medium-sized pie for him.

"Come on, if you commit a crime, I'm afraid I won't be able to punish you."

"No, Brother Zhang, how can you think of me like that? I'm a law-abiding citizen and have never bullied anyone."

"You don't know, when I was a kid, I was often forced to do my homework by the bullies at school."

The two chatted and laughed all the way, and the atmosphere returned to its previous state during the conversation.

Zhang Changsheng said one last word before leaving.

"After this period of contact, I found that you are a fairly upright person, so I treat you as a friend."

"But remember, once you have a sharp weapon in your hand, the desire to kill will naturally arise. You must control your desires. I don't want to see that day come."
