Zuo Rutong's words were as gentle as a mountain stream or the echo of an empty valley.

But when these words fell into Si Chong's ears, it was like a bolt from the blue, which could shatter his eardrums, shatter his soul, shatter his thoughts, and shatter Si Chong and the beautiful dream of three thousand years.

These words brought Si Chong back to his senses. He covered his heart and his body trembled.

It was obviously Zuo Rutong who failed, but the reaction seemed to be even greater. In Meng Ning's eyes, this uncle-master seemed to have had his life drained away by an invisible object, and he looked small and fragile.

The famous Mr. Kuang Ya felt as helpless and hopeless as a child who accidentally killed his companion.

Zuo Rutong looked at Si Chong with his gentle and old eyes for a long time. After a while, seeing that Si Chong felt better, he said lightly.

"Brother, gather the disciples. I have something to announce."

Hearing this, Uncle Si Chong, who was squatting on the ground with his hands covering his heart, jumped up as if he had been electrocuted, and asked Zuo Rutong, who was slumped in the chair, with trembling voice.

"Brother, what are you going to do? Why are you gathering your disciples now?"

"You can't do this... Brother, you can't. You can't do this."

"Please use the Xuan Gong again! Please, brother, use the Xuan Gong again!!!"

Ugh......

Zuo Rutong let out a long sigh, his eyes filled with fatigue.

"Junior brother, you and Cheng Zhen also followed my method of maintaining the reverse life for a long time. But why did you give up in the end?"

Hearing this, Si Chong answered hurriedly.

"It's me, Junior Brother, who is incompetent! I don't have enough talent, and I don't have enough skills! I am far inferior to you, Senior Brother!"

Si Chong's answer made Zuo Rutong chuckle.

"Pooh!"

"You can hold on for days and months, it's just a little longer. There's no such thing as skill or talent!"

"only....."

"If it gets longer, you'll start to get annoyed, right?"

Without giving Si Chong a chance to answer, Zuo Menchang continued talking to himself.

"You are human, am I not? You have irritable hearts, don't I? I just have to do this to survive..."

"Alas, I'll just use tormenting things to continue exploring the path to advancement."

"I maintain this rebirth day and night, just like a smooth ball on my head. As long as I have enough skills, I can naturally hold it up for a long time and hold it up steadily."

"I thought... if I just kept pushing the ball like this until the end, the ball would stop being pushed and would become my second head."

"I am like the monkey trying to catch the moon in the water. I tried my best to catch the moon in the lake. I thought I caught the bright moon, but in the end I only got a handful of clear water."

"Haha, it's just as Ning'er expected. It all came to nothing... Our three-fold method can't do it after all..."

Before he could finish his words, Si Chong interrupted him by shouting hurriedly.

"Brother! Stop talking. If that happens, my roots in the Trinity School will be..."

Hearing this, Zuo Rutong just found it ridiculous.

"Roots? For decades, the roots that I depended on for survival have been dug up, but I have never felt so relieved. Junior brother, after so many years of cultivation, do you still care about these empty names?"

After saying this, a rare smile appeared on Zuo Rutong's old face.

Si Chong understood Zuo Rutong's intention. But he thought about the current status of Trinity, the disabled teachers who relied on Trinity for their survival, and the talented students who joined Trinity for the sake of its reputation.

He can't give up, can't let go, can't expose, can't let go.

Master passed Trinity to my senior brother, and then to me. I cannot let Trinity fall. This false reputation has long been the pillar of Trinity.

"No... Brother, no. Trinity has always been a family in Xuanmen, we can't lower our status."

"Tell me, what do you want everyone at Trinity to do?"

"Brother, please don't force me. What do you want me to do? Tell me! What do you want me to do?!"

Seeing that Si Chong could not accept it, Zuo Rutong was silent for a moment, sighed, and spoke slowly.

"It's nothing more than not calling ourselves Xuanmen anymore. Even if Sanjie can't defeat Yi and reach the sky, this method is still unique in the world. We might as well just abandon the name Sanyi."

"It would be great if my disciples can find another way to reach the heavens in the future. Even if they can't, with this unique skill at their disposal, the survival of our sect shouldn't be a problem."

Si Chong still refused to accept it.

"Brother, you said that the third level cannot lead to heaven!"

perhaps......

Si Chong had a bold guess in his mind.

"Maybe you haven't reached the third level yet?!"

He seemed to be shouting at Meng Ning beside him.

"Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning, tell me, is it possible that your master has not yet reached the third level?"

Alas, the truth finally came out, Zuo Ruotong felt heartbroken for his junior fellow apprentice. But he had said all he could, and there was really no way for him to persuade Si Chong.

Indeed, it is natural and normal for a junior brother to be unable to accept such a huge shock for a while.

On the contrary, Zuo Rutong is the abnormal one.

Meng Ning seemed to be yelling at, and he felt that this uncle regarded him, a junior, as a life-saving straw.

Si Chong rushed to Meng Ning quickly, stretched out his hands and shook Meng Ning's body like a madman.

"Xiao Ning! Did you know this a long time ago? Did you know that the third level cannot lead to the sky?"

"You wanted to tell me a few days ago, right? You must have a way to get to the sky! You must have a way to get to the sky, right?"

It seemed as if he suddenly knelt down towards Meng Ning. An old man in his sixties actually kowtowed to Meng Ning, a child of about 10 years old.

"Uncle Master, I beg you, Uncle Master, please save the Trinity Sect. Please save the Trinity Sect. I will do anything you ask me to do. I will do anything you ask the Trinity Sect to do."

Like a drowning man clutching at a straw.

But Shi Chong didn't know that what he was holding was not straw, but a towering tree.

Oh my god, Meng Ning hurriedly helped Si Chong up. No matter how he looked at it, he still felt bad for a sixty-year-old man to kneel down before him. In his previous life, as a good citizen of the Great Yan Country of Blue Star, Meng Ning still had the basic moral character of respecting the elderly and loving the young.

"Uncle Master, don't be anxious or panic."

After calming him down, Meng Ning asked Zuo Rutong sincerely.

"Master, can you trust me? I think the third level of reverse life is not impossible to reach the sky."

Hmm? Trust you? Zuo Ruotong was confused, not knowing what this disciple was trying to say. It was not that he could not reach the sky, but that the way forward was already cut off. This was what Zuo Ruotong experienced personally when he entered the third level.

"Master, please teach me the third level of Yunxuan Gong and let me have a try!"

Hearing this, Zuo Rutong sighed inwardly. He had high hopes for Meng Ning. Although he had only been his master for about two short years, Zuo Rutong believed that Meng Ning would believe what he said and understand him.

Hearing Meng Ning's words, Zuo Rutong suddenly felt very tired and disappointed. It was even more disappointing than just finding out that the third level could not lead to the sky. This was the feeling of loneliness and the feeling of not being understood.

"Alas... Lian Ning'er, you still won't give up? Master... forget it. It is indeed my opinion that the third level cannot lead to heaven, but this is my current conclusion."

"I, the Master, hope that I am wrong more than any of you. If you still have faith in the Threefold, that's good. It's also good to keep going. Go and prove it."

After saying that, Zuo Rutong walked to Meng Ning.

"Since you still have doubts about whether the road ahead is blocked, then go and try it yourself."

"For the next few months, you will practice with me in the cave..."

Looking at Meng Ning who was full of confidence, Zuo Rutong suddenly felt a little hope for some reason.

“Maybe you can really bring about some change.”
