Chapter 501: Common Goal
Looking at the fluctuating space, Zuo Qiudao smiled slightly, and just stretched out his finger, the temporary space that had no follow-up power was immediately broken, and Shen Zheng fell directly from the light back to the crimson world beside. ^
The waiting state of mind was disrupted, and Shen Zheng opened his eyes unhappily. What he saw was not the Bruwu who imprisoned him, but a strange old man. He looked at the other party in confusion, and looked around, but there was no trace of Bruwu. The residual power of the space force after the explosion remained in the air, and he gradually realized that there had been a battle here just now.
"Shen Zheng?" Zuo Qiudao asked.
"It's me." Shen Zheng nodded. "Who are you?"
"My last name is Zuo, and my name is Qiudao." Zuo Qiudao smiled kindly. "How is it, are you okay?" [
"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine." Shen Zheng had a lot of complaints, but it was hard to vent. The man in front of him obviously drove Bruwu away and rescued himself. Although it was still unclear whether he was an enemy or a friend, before knowing his true identity, necessary courtesy was still necessary.
"Maybe I interrupted your meditation?" Zuo Qiudao said embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry. But Brue has already escaped, and this space can't last too long. If it explodes again when you are practicing at a critical moment, it will cause great damage to you."
"Thank you so much." Shen Zheng saluted the other party solemnly.
The other party was not wearing a military uniform, but a very solemn light gray suit. Shen Zheng couldn't tell his identity, so he didn't salute, but bowed and nodded, performing the etiquette of a junior.
"Don't be so polite." Zuo Qiudao waved his hand.
"Although I already know your name, I still want to ask: Who are you?" Shen Zheng asked.
"I wonder if Brue has told you about the Crimson Alliance?" Zuo Qiudao asked.
"Yes." Shen Zheng nodded, "Since you saved me, you should not be a member of that alliance."
"I am." Zuo Qiudao's answer surprised Shen Zheng a little, but Shen Zheng distinguished the brainwave language he sent and found that it was the truth.
"But it's not." He continued.
"I don't quite understand." Shen Zheng said.
"The Crimson Alliance is a huge organization, composed entirely of top star masters." Zuo Qiudao said, "This organization had nearly a hundred people at its peak, but now there are only eighteen left. They gathered together to break through the limits with the help of the power of the Crimson Vortex, helping each other, exchanging cultivation experiences, and trying to move forward on the road of cultivation, but unfortunately, after so many years, the losses are huge and the gains are almost zero.%&*
Shen Zheng listened quietly without interrupting. At this time, he was a quiet listener. Anyone who intends to tell others everything will like such a quiet listener.
Zuo Qiudao continued: "I joined relatively late, and my strength in the organization is relatively low. Unlike others, I joined this organization not to become stronger through communication, but only to have a chance to take revenge."
After speaking, he kept looking at Shen Zheng.
"Revenge?" Shen Zheng couldn't help but interrupt. Not to interrupt, just to give the other party a reason to continue.
"Yes, revenge. "Zuoqiu Dao's eyes were confused for a moment, as if he was lost in memories. "Many years ago, I had a family. That family had my relatives, two sons, and a wife. But later I lost them, just because of an ordinary action of the Crimson Alliance. I was not at home at that time, and when I came back, I found that my home was gone. Can you understand this pain? "
"I can." Shen Zheng nodded slowly. There was no fluctuation in the other party's brain wave language, showing that what he said was true.
"No, you can't." Zuoqiu Dao's eyes showed a trace of sadness. "Because you are too young, young enough to be considered a child. For you, family is just a bondage..." [
"Don't make subjective assumptions about other people's emotional experiences." Shen Zheng said. "My parents died when I was young. I am no stranger to the pain of losing my family than you are."
"Sorry."
"It doesn't matter."
Both of them were silent for a while, as if their sympathy triggered each other's unhappy memories.
"From then on, everything was unimportant to me. "Zuo Qiudao said, "Revenge is the only word left in my world, and it is the biggest and ultimate goal in my life. I quickly found out the truth of the matter, because for the Crimson Alliance, it was really a small action that did not need to be concealed. But for me, it was a major event that affected my life. For the revenge of my wife and children, I joined the Crimson Alliance. "
"Even if there are only eighteen of them left... this number should include you, right?" Shen Zheng asked.
"Yes." Zuo Qiudao nodded, "I understand what you want to say. Even if they only have these people left, I will never have the hope of revenge."
"Yes." Shen Zheng nodded.
"In fact, not all people are my enemies." Zuo Qiudao said, "My enemies are only five people. These five people are the most powerful peak star masters in the Crimson Alliance. They are also the core elders of this alliance, responsible for presiding over all major events of the alliance. My wife and children died at the hands of these five people."
"It is not easy to take revenge." Shen Zheng said.
"So I've been waiting." Zuoqiu Dao said. At that moment, there was light in his eyes, as sharp as a knife. "I'm like a lone wolf, without the help of my friends in the tribe, I can only rely on my own meager strength to fight against a behemoth. So I have to endure it, I have to pretend to be docile and approach them until the opportunity comes."
He turned to Shen Zheng with a complicated look.
"You are the opportunity." He said, "It is a rare opportunity for them and for me."
"I'm not actually an opportunity." Shen Zheng shook his head.
"Do you understand the level of the Lord of the Galaxy?" Zuoqiu Dao asked.
"No." Shen Zheng shook his head. "That's too far for me."
"No, no, no." Zuo Qiudao smiled, "It's not out of reach for you, although you are only at the seventh level now. But not long ago, weren't you just a third-level star master? Growth is as simple as breathing for you, but for us old people, it's as difficult as ascending to heaven. The door is there, and the threshold is right in front of us, but none of us can cross it."
"I think I can understand that kind of pain to some extent." Shen Zheng said.
"More than pain." Zuo Qiudao said, "For me, it's torture."
He was silent for a while, then changed the topic, no longer talking about torture and pain, but directly pointed to the level of Galaxy Lord: "Galaxy Lord, can travel across the universe and move quickly between major galaxies, just like Star Lord can move quickly between different planets in a galaxy. The peak strong ones can control several or even dozens of galaxies and become absolute gods."
There was yearning in his eyes.
"But that's not the most attractive part of this level. Power, to a certain extent, does not make people have unlimited ambitions." He said. "Controlling a planet is actually enough for enjoyment. Controlling several galaxies does not mean that you can manage them personally to experience the beauty of power. The real attraction of this level is that it is truly incarnated as a god." [
"Incarnated as a god?" Shen Zheng frowned. "This is a bit mysterious."
"The so-called god is only for people." Zuo Qiudao said, "What is a god? Those who control the power to destroy the world, aren't they gods? Those who control the power to change the fate of mankind, aren't they gods? So, in fact, the star master is already a god."
"Then what about the master of the galaxy?" Shen Zheng asked. "Why is it the 'real incarnation of God'?"
"Compared with humans, gods should have a little difference." Zuo Qiudao said, "That is life. Human life is short, even if you become a peak star master, your life span will not increase much. Look at me, and think about Bruu. We are all old and can never go back to youth."
He said with some sadness: "But who doesn't want to live longer? Even ordinary mortals are eager to live forever, right? And we, the peak strong men, are even more eager to do this, so as to enjoy a longer and longer life. So, we are eager to become the master of the galaxy, because only when we reach this level can humans truly get rid of the life limit of just a hundred years, can freely change their body structure, restore to the state of youth, and have several times the life now."
"How long is the life span of the master of the galaxy?" Shen Zheng couldn't help asking.
"The longest-lived galaxy master known lived for more than 500 years." Zuo Qiudao said. "Historical records show that his body did not begin to age until one year before his death, and then he lost all his strength and died."
"Five hundred years..." Shen Zheng nodded slightly.
Normal humans rarely live to be a hundred years old. The first hundred years is already a long limit for humans. But the Lord of the Galaxy can live to five hundred years old, and can still stay young and strong until one year before his death. This is indeed a huge temptation.
No one would not yearn for it. Shen Zheng was also tempted.
Maintaining a young appearance and state, and then living for five hundred years...
That is indeed a god-like existence.
"Now you can understand the peak star master's eagerness to advance, right?" Zuo Qiudao asked.
"I understand." Shen Zheng nodded. "I totally understand."
"So they won't let go of any opportunity easily." Zuo Qiudao looked at Shen Zheng, "Especially you! Before you entered the crimson vortex, you were just a peak star spirit, but after entering it, you continued to show your powerful strength in a series of changes, and now you have been promoted to the seventh-level star master. Do you understand how shocking this is to other star masters? They won't believe that it's because you have some kind of genius, but will only associate it with the secret of the crimson giant. Shen Zheng, they will never let you go, they will use all means to get your secret out, and then waiting for you is only death!"
Shen Zheng was silent. He knew that the other party was right.
"We have something in common." Zuo Qiudao looked at Shen Zheng, "Our enemies are the same group of people, so we must join hands! Shen Zheng, we work together to deal with this group of people, only then will we have a chance of winning!"
Shen Zheng looked at him and read something from his eyes.
He read something more from his brain wave language.
