Sleeping to Immortality: Getting Stronger One Nap at a Time!-Chapter 41 – Fallen flowers have intentions, flowing water is heartless, sending Master Ancestor to the grave
As the Left Emperor unleashed a powerful punch, a giant cauldron flew out from the Forbidden Zone of the Nightmoon Kingdom, attacking the Left Emperor.
Watching the earth-shattering battle, Chen Changsheng smacked his lips and sighed.
"The world of cultivating immortality is truly dangerous. Luckily, I don't like fighting."
With that thought, Chen Changsheng immediately flew towards Ikkyu and the others in the distance.
Seeing Chen Changsheng, who had disappeared for fifty years, reappear, everyone felt a surge of joy at the reunion.
"Brother Changsheng, I knew you would come back," Song Yuanshan greeted excitedly.
Chen Changsheng looked at Song Yuanshan in his Taoist robe and smiled, "It's been decades, and the little tagalong has finally grown up."
"Good, it wasn't in vain for the Third Senior Brother to teach you so diligently."
Seeing the exchange between Chen Changsheng and Song Yuanshan, a stunning beauty with a hint of wildness hesitated to speak. She was Wanyan Yue, the princess of the Nightmoon Kingdom.
"What do you plan to do next?" Wanyan Yue couldn't help but ask.
Hearing Wanyan Yue's question, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "What else can I do? Of course, I'll follow my own path!"
Upon hearing this, Wanyan Yue glanced at the army of the Xuanwu Nation and said solemnly, "Are you still going to leave?"
Although Wanyan Yue didn't explicitly say anything, Chen Changsheng could hear a hint of reluctance in her voice.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "It's not really leaving."
"Everyone has things they must do and a destiny of their own. I'm just going where I need to go, doing what I need to do."
"Why?" Song Yuanshan asked, puzzled.
"The trouble has been resolved, and the Shangqing Temple is in ruins. Brother Changsheng, are you really going to leave it all behind?"
Facing Song Yuanshan's slightly agitated expression, Chen Changsheng patted his shoulder and said, "Rebuilding the Shangqing Temple is your mission, not mine."
"People's destinies are different. Some are meant to take root in one place, while others are meant to roam the world."
"The Dao emphasizes fate, and my fate with all of you has ended. It's time to say goodbye."
Hearing Chen Changsheng's words, Song Yuanshan couldn't help but clench his fists.
In fact, ever since Chen Changsheng joined, the entire Shangqing Temple had anticipated his departure.
Although Chen Changsheng did well, they never felt he intended to stay.
To be more precise, Song Yuanshan saw the Shangqing Temple as home, while Chen Changsheng saw it as a temporary resting place.
In life, one travels to many places and may become attached to some.
But the only place that can make one stop is home.
Chen Changsheng never saw the Shangqing Temple as home, so no matter how much he cherished it, he would eventually leave.
After speaking, Chen Changsheng turned to look at Ikkyu, who wore a calm expression.
"Little Monk, I've known you the longest."
"I'm about to leave. Aren't you going to try to keep me?"
Hearing Chen Changsheng's words, Ikkyu rolled his eyes at him and said disdainfully, "If Chen Changsheng wants to leave, who can stop him?"
"We are like the flowers and trees of this land, while you are a bird that stops only briefly."
"No matter how long the bird stays, it will eventually fly away. I foresaw this day long ago."
As Ikkyu spoke, the battle on the Left Emperor's side also came to an end.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Decades have passed, and your Buddhist skills have improved."
"Keep working hard, and strive to become a great master in the future."
"Now that things over there are settled, I need to go collect a body for an old acquaintance."
With that, Chen Changsheng turned and headed towards the Forbidden Zone.
Watching Chen Changsheng's departing figure, the three of them felt a deep sense of reluctance.
However, the reluctance in Wanyan Yue's eyes contained a hint of a different emotion.
Seeing this, Ikkyu sighed, "Stop looking. This guy won't stay for anyone."
"Besides, for fifty years, you've been clamoring to beat up Chen Changsheng and get revenge for the humiliation he caused you."
"Now that he's here, why don't you make a move?"
Hearing Ikkyu's words, Wanyan Yue said coldly, "He's very strong. I'm not his match right now."
"I can help you!"
"He's not really good at fighting. If we team up, we might have a chance to give him a good beating."
Facing Ikkyu's undermining, Wanyan Yue retorted angrily, "The Buddhist Sect preaches compassion, but you're full of hostility. You're not far from going astray."
After retorting Ikkyu, Wanyan Yue turned and left.
But halfway through, Wanyan Yue paused.
"Will I see him again?"
"Hard to say, but if you live long enough, there's always a chance."
Receiving Ikkyu's response, Wanyan Yue disappeared completely.
Perhaps from the moment her hair was dyed black, Wanyan Yue had already deeply remembered this interesting person.
......
In the Forbidden Zone of the Nightmoon Kingdom.
Chen Changsheng carried a luxurious coffin, carefully avoiding various large pits, and arrived in front of the bronze ancient hall.
Thud!
The heavy coffin hit the ground, and Chen Changsheng looked at the Transcendent Realist suppressed beneath the bronze ancient hall and smiled.
"Master Ancestor, how do you like this coffin I crafted for you?"
Hearing this, the Transcendent Realist looked at the coffin and smiled, "Not bad, I can see you put a lot of thought into it."
"When you narrowly escaped last time, I had a vague sense of unease."
"But I didn't expect you to return so quickly, and with such powerful help."
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng glanced at the Left Emperor, who was studying the bronze ancient hall.
"I had no choice. Master Ancestor, you're so strong. How could I send you off alone?"

"Now that things have come to this, can Master Ancestor answer a few questions for your disciple?"
"Go ahead."
"The Boundless Secret Realm also has a bronze ancient hall. Why did you come to the Nightmoon Kingdom to set up your plan?"
"The thing suppressed beneath the Boundless Secret Realm was destroyed, so I came to the Nightmoon Kingdom."
"I see!"
"Then let me ask the second question. After you killed Master and the others, did you ever regret it?"
As he asked this question, Chen Changsheng stared intently into the Transcendent Realist's eyes, trying to discern the most honest answer.
After a long silence, the Transcendent Realist sighed softly and said, "Just some trials and tribulations."
"For those who cultivate the Dao, some sacrifices in pursuit of the Grand Dao of immortality are quite normal."
"When one day I achieve liberation, even eating bitter herbs will taste sweet."
"Hahaha!"
Hearing the Transcendent Realist's words, Chen Changsheng laughed, and he laughed heartily.
"What a 'even eating bitter herbs will taste sweet.' Master Ancestor, your Dao heart is steadfast, and I admire that!"
"In that case, let me send you off on your final journey."
As he finished speaking, the Left Emperor appeared beside Chen Changsheng.
Looking at the Left Emperor who had defeated him, the Transcendent Realist showed no trace of fear.
"If I hadn't been trapped, it wouldn't be so easy for you to kill me."
