Chapter 91 Put down your pride. You and I are just small fish and shrimps at the bottom of the river.
The next second, a red crab slowly emerged from the water, its golden claws gleaming with cold light, as if one claw could crush the void. It had deep dark pupils and was about two meters long.

This is the young crab two years later, now it has grown into an adult.

A year ago, after the young crab grew up, Su Mu no longer kept it in captivity.

Instead, it let it out to meet its brothers and sisters. Although Su Mu was the third one to be contracted, since it was the youngest and met the brothers the last, it naturally became Xiao Nannan's fifth brother.

The red crab's personality is very inconsistent with its appearance. It is very calm and honest. It often carries the little girl on its back to play on the water and takes her to find fruits to eat.

After seeing the red crab coming, little Nannan smiled and said, "Fifth brother, I thought you were not coming."

After all five beasts arrived, little Nannan snapped her fingers and confirmed again.

Although Xiao Nannan's five brothers and sisters all look very intimidating, the looks they give to Xiao Nannan are all full of doting.

At this time, little Nannan brought the big bucket behind her to the front, which was filled with some fish that her father had caught during this period, and also served as food for her brothers and sisters.

Daddy went out to make money, so the little girl took the initiative to take on this job.

Don’t be fooled by the little girl’s small stature; she can easily lift the wooden barrel weighing tens of thousands of pounds with one hand.

She poured dozens of various fish into the water and said, "Brother and sister, Daddy and I have eaten. You can eat now."

Soon, the five beasts ate all the precious fish.

"Dad told me today that you have worked hard during this period."

At this time, little Nannan said to the five beasts.

In fact, Su Mu got up very early today, went out early, and did not say this.

These words were spoken by little Nannan herself. Although she is young, she is very smart and sensible.

Ever since she can remember, her brothers and sisters would bring a lot of delicious food, and they also helped daddy a lot, so Nannan also felt that they worked very hard, which is why she said that.

The five beasts were obviously very happy when they heard this.

In their eyes, Xiao Nannan is their little master, and also their most beloved and doted little master.

Moreover, in their eyes, apart from the master, the little master is the most talented human they have ever seen. Over the years, they have been to all walks of life and have seen many extraordinary geniuses, but no one has ever been able to compare to the little master.

To be precise, there is no qualification for comparison.

Therefore, they sometimes bring some cultivation resources to their little masters to help them practice.

"Third brother, wait."

After the five beasts left one after another, little Nannan called out to the golden python.

The golden python also looked at its little master with a puzzled look.

"Third brother, can you take me out to play?"

Little Nannan was really bored, and she also wanted to go out with her third brother to hunt for treasure and find food together.

Because the family is poor, little girl doesn't want her father to be so hard-working from going out early to coming back late, so she also wants to do her part.

After hearing what Xiao Nannan said, the golden python immediately shook its head. As her third brother, it must do a good job of looking after the little master and taking good care of her.

Moreover, I heard from my eldest brother last time that little girl once ran away secretly, and if my eldest brother had not arrived in time, she would have almost had an accident.

"Okay, Third Brother, please, I promise not to run around or cause trouble."

"You guys are working so hard, I want to do my part."

Little Nannan knew that her eldest brother was the most old-fashioned and the most majestic, and he would definitely not take her out. Although the third brother looked fierce, he was actually very soft-hearted, so she would act coquettishly to him alone.

The golden python still shook its head. Although with its own strength, nothing would go wrong within the realm it ruled, it was always cautious and was unwilling to take the risk.

"Please, brother."

There was nothing he could do. Looking at the look of his little master, the golden python softened his heart and said that he must not run around.

After getting permission, the little girl smiled happily and spun around happily.

Little Nannan carefully rode on the golden python's head, holding it tightly with her two little hands.

Nannan, sit down.

The next second, the golden python carried the little girl along the river to a certain body of water.

The Golden Python was going to one of the safer realms under his rule. As long as little Nannan was within the realm under his rule, there would absolutely be no problem.

Moreover, Jin Mang also planned to take this opportunity to give her a three-year-old gift.

Xiangang Continent, Holy Forest Palace.

At this moment, there is a Guishu tree in front of the fairy palace, and a chessboard is placed under the Guishu tree.

On both sides of the chessboard, two men were sitting and playing chess.

One of the men was wearing a white robe, and looked to be about thirty years old. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was quite handsome. The surrounding Taoist aura was lingering around him, surrounding him.

Sitting opposite the man in white robe was an old man in gray robe. He had an ordinary look, the kind you wouldn't see on the street.

However, the aura of the gray-robed old man was also extremely strong, not at all weaker than that of the white-robed man who was playing chess with him.

The man in white robe is named Wang Lin. Now, he has reached the top of Xiangang Continent and has reached the last step.

As soon as Wang Lin placed the white piece, the chessboard immediately formed a fierce and murderous situation, cutting off all the escape routes for the black piece. It looked like a sure kill.

However, the gray-robed man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You have to know that even if you have come to this point, the life of the living beings in the world is destined to be born, grow old, get sick and die. A dead person cannot be resurrected."

Hearing this, Wang Lin looked at me with a sharp gaze and said leisurely, "What if I go against the will of heaven?"

"Isn't this Heavenly Dao in charge of reincarnation? If I become the new Heavenly Dao, then why can't my lover be resurrected?"

Hearing this, the gray-robed old man did not answer, but slowly picked up a chess piece and looked at the chess game that had already shown signs of being surrounded and killed.

Then he found a spot and landed gently.

As the black piece fell, the siege was completely resolved, and all of Wang Lin’s plans disappeared.

Seeing this, Wang Lin’s body also stiffened.

"Wang Lin, I admit that you have reached the last step. You are infinitely close to the peak of this world, and even infinitely close to the heaven of this world."

"But you have never thought that what you think is 'infinitely close' is actually still very far away."

"The laws of nature in this world are not as weak as you think."

The gray-robed old man paused and continued, "Just like my chess game, you thought you had no loopholes, but as long as you are not truly invincible, all your efforts will be in vain with just one move."

Hearing this, Wang Lin raised his head, stared at the gray-clothed old man, and said word by word: "But, don't you want to go against the will of heaven?"

"It raises living beings in captivity, and it reincarnates once every era. If we don't make changes, will all of us become its food when this era ends?"

After these words were spoken, the old man in gray fell silent.

He and Wang Lin are both the strongest in this era and the practitioners closest to the top of this world.

They also understand the truth about this world.

Since the last era, the Heavenly Dao of Xiangang Continent has become abnormal. An ancient great power once deduced that the Heavenly Dao of Xiangang Continent has already shown intelligence. There is also a bolder guess, that is, the Heavenly Dao of Xiangang Continent has long been swallowed up and is controlled by another Heavenly Dao with intelligence.

That new heavenly way with intelligence will start a new cycle in every era, that is, it will devour all the living beings of this era to strengthen itself, and then after the birth of a new era, it will continue to raise the living beings of the next reincarnation.

According to Wang Lin's deduction, there are only a hundred years left in this era. If no changes are made within a hundred years and if it goes against the will of heaven, then all living beings in this era, including him, Wang Lin, will be turned into nourishment for the will of heaven.

"Wang Lin."

The gray-clothed old man slowly raised his head and met Wang Lin's eyes. He said solemnly, "I have decided that in fifty years, I will leave Xiangang Continent and go to a new world, a new continent."

Hear this.

Wang Lin suddenly stood up, overturned the chessboard in front of him, and said angrily: "If you run away like this, where will your offspring and descendants be?"

"With our strength, we can't take everyone away. We can only leave alone."

Hearing this, the gray-robed old man smiled, picked up the teacup beside him, took a sip, and said, "I'm sorry, my last disciple passed away a hundred years ago."

"You should also know that the old Holy Lord of the Changgu Holy Land was my last disciple, who passed away a hundred years ago."

“So, now I am alone.”

As he spoke, the man in gray opened his hands with a calm expression.

Hearing this, Wang Lin calmed down and sneered, "If you were me, would you still choose to escape?"

After these words came out, the man in gray said without any hesitation: "Yes."

"Wang Lin, you have to understand a cruel reality."

“Perhaps in the eyes of some absolute supreme beings, we are nothing more than small fish and shrimps in a pond. If those supreme beings want to kill us, they only need to wave their hands.”

"And what we have to do is to escape in advance when he decides to kill us."

The words of the gray-robed old man kept echoing in Wang Lin's ears.

"Wang Lin, put aside your pride. You and I are just small fish and shrimps at the bottom of the well. You must know who you are."

"Time is running out before the end of this era. I hope you can make up your mind soon."

"I have shown you the only way to survive. It is up to you whether you are willing to take it or not."

"Put aside your arrogance. I know you are the best cultivator in this era. I know you are confident, but facing an uncontestable existence, confidence is arrogance and overestimating one's own abilities."

Hearing this, Wang Lin fell silent. He slowly sat down, his mind seemed empty, and no one knew what he was thinking.

After a long while, Wang Lin's eyes became firm, he clenched his fists and said, "If you want to leave, go by yourself."

"I want to try."

After he finished speaking, the man in gray had already expected him to say that, so he just sighed heavily and didn't continue to persuade him.

A hundred years passed in a flash.

The entire Xiangang Continent began to shake. A powerful pressure emanated from the Holy Forest Palace, shaking the entire continent.

At this moment, countless cultivators in Xiangang Continent all looked towards a certain direction in the sky with expressions of fear on their faces.

Today is the day when Wang Lin comes out of his seclusion. He has finally taken the last step and reached the pinnacle of this world, the last step to become equal to Tianqi!
And today is also the last day of the end of the era. According to some fragmented ancient books on the Xiangang Continent, today will be the last day of the destruction of the entire era. All living things will be annihilated and transformed into nourishment for the way of heaven.

Wang Lin sat at the highest point of the Holy Forest Hall, looking straight at the sky.

The gray-clothed old man who was at the same level as him had passed away fifty years ago, but Wang Lin chose to stay. He wanted to fight against the Heavenly Dao, kill the Heavenly Dao, and replace the Heavenly Dao!

Suddenly, the sky darkened, the sun went out, and the entire continent fell into eternal night.

All living beings looked up into the void.

At this moment, countless creatures remembered the legend that had been circulating on the continent for the past hundred years, saying that a new era for the continent was about to begin, and they, as creatures of the old era, would all be annihilated.

At first, they all thought it was just made up.

But now, the legendary prophecy has truly appeared before their eyes.

Eternal night falls, an era begins, and all living things are annihilated!

The next second, a pair of eyes appeared in the void.

The golden pupils gazed at the entire continent. In these pupils, countless cultivators saw the six realms of reincarnation, the laws, nature, and everything in this world.

Heaven!

At this moment, Wang Lin soared into the air, looking directly into the Eye of Heaven, with a strong fighting spirit constantly spreading.

The next second, his entire body radiated white fairy light, instantly illuminating half of the continent.

At this moment, countless creatures looked at the figure in the void. They knew that this was the ruler of the continent, the supreme monk living in myths and legends, Wang Lin!
The most powerful being on the continent was facing the Heavenly Dao alone.

“You keep all living things in captivity.”

"Today, I will defy you!"

After saying that, Wang Lin transformed himself into a holy sword and stabbed towards the Eye of Heaven. The powerful pressure caused the entire continent to shake.

Just when the Eye of Heaven was about to be destroyed.

The Eye of Heaven condensed slightly.

Wang Lin stood still, the immortal light on his body dissipated, and his body and soul instantly reached the critical point of being reduced to ashes.

At this moment, Wang Lin recalled the words the old man once said to him: "Wang Lin, put aside your pride. You and I are just small fish and shrimps at the bottom of the well. You must know who you are."

The next second, a vicissitudes of life voice echoed.

"You're lucky."

"One of you, a hundred years ago, gave my little master a gift that made her happy."

"So, I'll give you a chance. This time, when the era begins, all souls will not be reset to zero, and you can continue to live."

The voice of heaven echoes in every corner of the continent.

Hearing this, Wang Lin's pupils shrank and he recalled an event from the past.

One hundred years ago, before entering into seclusion, he transformed himself into a mortal and lived in the mortal world for a year. His purpose was to temper his state of mind and make up his mind to enter into seclusion.

And one day a hundred years ago, he met a little girl who was only three years old on a street in the mortal world.

She was wearing a lavender dress, like an elf, with two cute little fangs when she smiled. At the age of three, her cultivation had reached the Purple Mansion Realm!
He still remembered that behind the little girl, there was an old man whose face he could not see silently, who was always protecting him in secret.

Although he did not succeed in accepting the little girl as his apprentice, he also gave her a gift.

At this moment, Wang Lin suddenly thought of something, looked up suddenly, and looked at the golden pupil in the void with horror.

"Wang Lin, do you remember?"

"Are you going to rebel against me again?"

The voice of heaven echoes
