Legend of Swordsman

4788 Gifting the Life Source Ring Bead
Jian Wushuang, who had concealed himself in the abyss of the Blood Sea, was stunned when he heard Monk Konglun’s words.

The Karma that he was infected with had no cause at all, so why did Konglun cut him off directly? There was no cause for Karma in this world?

Wasn’t this a little too arbitrary and straightforward?

Thinking of this, Jian Wushuang looked at Konglun, who was sitting on the countless bones with dark eyes. He thought, ‘Has his Inner Demon completely devoured his Heart Realm?’
“Are the good men still around?” Monk Konglun asked. He slowly put his palms together and bowed in Jian Wushuang’s direction. “I’ve already developed an Inner Demon and can no longer teach and discipline the people. If you don’t mind, we can just chat.”

Jian Wushuang was not sure if his state of mind had changed. However, with the Karma and the great killing calamity, he could only try to talk to Konglun.

He said, “Immortal Master, I don’t agree with what you said. Is it possible to have Karma without cause and effect?”

“If there was no cause and effect for no reason, is everything in this world connected? I don’t think so. If I saved a cultivator when I was traveling in Qingyun Heavenly Realm, To him, I’m his Karma, but to me, is it true that there was no Karma? This is just a spur-of-the-moment thing.”

When Konglun heard this, he smiled, “Virtuous man, actually, when you said those words, you had already involved Karma. It was because of your momentary impulse that Karma resulted in the subsequent consequences.”

“The reason is that in this Karma that should not have existed, you occupied the dominant position and created the cause and effect.”

“The world is vast and all the Karma related to oneself is not always in one’s own hands.”

After saying those words, Konglun did not speak any further and placed his palms together.

How could Jian Wushuang, who had grown to the peak of the Great Dao step by step and had a terrible comprehension of the Great Dao of heaven and earth and all kinds of skills, not understand what he meant?

Jian Wushuang understood a little and asked, “Immortal Master, do you mean that the right to lead one’s own Karma has never been in one’s own hands? Instead, it is connected to all living things?”

“That’s the case, and that’s not the case,” At this moment, Konglun gave an ambiguous answer. However, he did not give an answer. “Everything is in the heart and hands of a benevolent person, waiting for you to change it.”

Jian Wushuang did not say anything. He was trying to figure out the connection between them. If what Monk Konglun said was true, the Karma that he had been infected with since he entered the Sand Demon Cave had always been in the hands of the so-called Lady Sha.

It was she who had forced Jian Wushuang to be contaminated by the Karma and thus bore the great killing calamity.

“You don’t provoke Karma, but Karma provokes you…” he sighed helplessly.

Jian Wushuang seemed to be unwilling to give up. After a moment of silence, he told Konglun everything.

Finally, Konglun put his palms together. “Virtuous man, this is both your Karma and your calamity.”

“To be honest, I’m here to find a solution,” Jian Wushuang said slowly. “Immortal Master, do you know the solution?”

Monk Konglun replied, “Everything is in the heart and hands of a virtuous person, waiting for you to change it. External forces are ultimately just external forces.”

“…”

Jian Wushuang was depressed and did not know what to say.

In this exchange of Karma, Monk Konglun’s intentions were extremely clear. Only he could change it.

The two of them continued to sit for several days before it finally ended.

Jian Wushuang felt that most of the doubts in his heart had been cleared. At the same time, he admired Konglun even more. Even though he had developed an Inner Demon, he was still able to hold on to his heart and not let the Blood Qi of resentment devour him.

Under the dark abyss of the Blood Sea, he clasped his hands together and returned Monk Konglun’s bow.

His generosity, his unique understanding of everything, and his fearless spirit were enough for Jian Wushuang to treat him with respect.

Konglun’s final conclusion was, “Virtuous man, after only a few days of interaction, I have also felt Enlightened. I have never felt so good before. The feeling you give me is that you have come out of this world, yet you are not independent of it. It’s as if you were born from the Heavenly Dao, like a graceful swan.”

“Immortal Master, you’re too kind. I’ve been floating for tens of millions of years and have never stopped.” Jian Wushuang smiled bitterly.

“Are you tired?” asked Konglun as he lifted his head.

He was stunned. He did not expect such a question.

After a long while, Jian Wushuang shook his head and said, ” I… don’t know.”

“This old man asked too much,” Konglun’s brows relaxed and said. Then, he slowly raised his hand and took out the largest ring bead that glowed with a black luster from the string of 14 ring beads on his neck.

“Virtuous man, I know that I can’t enter Samsara in this life. I’ll give you this ring bead now as a memento.”

“This ring bead is my source. All my thoughts, thoughts, and feelings for the first half of my life are sealed here. I hope that it can provide some help to you in the future. I will be honored.”

Hearing this, Jian Wushuang refused and was about to leave the Blood Sea with Konglun.

Konglun shook his head with a smile and said, “There is no such thing as a prison in this world. Only by painting the ground as a prison can one truly be considered a prison. My heart and Dao have already been lured by the demonic barrier. I can no longer see the past. This will be my final destination.”

“I had a good chat with you. I hope to see you one last time.”

“But …” Jian Wushuang wanted to say something but stopped. The reason why he hid his figure was that the last of the bitter words set by Monk Konglun was that he had to suffer the pain of knives and axes when he saw living beings.

“It doesn’t matter. Even if I die after seeing a virtuous person for the last time, it’s worth it.”

Hearing this, Jian Wushuang no longer declined. His original figure slowly emerged and his body was surging with thousands of lights, making him look like a celestial being.

Konglun’s dark eyes became clear for a moment. Then, he nodded and handed the Life Source Ring Bead to Jian Wushuang.

“Today, seeing you, I can’t help but recall all the bitter cultivation path I had in the past.”

“I was once a fruit on a dying tree. I should not have gained sentience, but a green bird used great perseverance to water me every day. As usual, it saved the mother tree for 30,000 years. It then plucked me from the tree and held me under the Buddha’s body to listen to the Dao and sit for countless years. Only then did I gain sentience and attain Dao.”

“In my current situation, I’ve also let down the green bird’s mercy. I have no face and only wish to fall into the extreme darkness and endure the cold to atone for my sins.”
