The righteous people all dispersed at once, and the demon sect people saw this and shouted:

"Are you going to fight or not? Why are you running away like that?"

"That's right, you can't stand losing, so you post on TikTok saying you can't beat us at cards."

Hearing their voices, Lin Bai pretended not to recognize them.

"they are?"

"Card-playing buddies! Friends I met while playing cards!" Venerable Du'e answered without even thinking.

"Yes, yes, we are just card-playing friends." Venerable Fei Guang also echoed.

"Why do they look like members of the Demon Sect to me? Could it be that you are secretly colluding with the Demon Sect?"

As soon as Lin Bai said this, the expressions of the righteous people changed instantly.

Seeing them like this, Lin Bai burst into laughter.

"Okay, I won't scare you anymore. I already know about your relationship with the Demon Sect. This is fine. Playing cards is better than fighting."

"I'm only here to see you. I'm about to ascend to the upper realm. The affairs of Tianyuan Continent have nothing to do with me."

After listening to Lin Bai's explanation, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and congratulated him:

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist White Bear!"

After everyone exchanged greetings, Lin Bai suddenly asked a question.

"What about you guys? Are you ready to ascend?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the powerful Mahayana masters present were stunned instantly.

Lin Bai's words were undoubtedly a soul-searching question for everyone present.

Not only did the righteous people start to think, but the people from the evil sect also fell into deep thought.

If it were in the past, each of them would have chosen to ascend without hesitation, because all the immortal cultivators were rushing to ascend to become immortals. Even if they knew that the chances of becoming immortals were slim, even if they knew that cultivating immortals was an act against heaven, it did not prevent them from fighting against heaven for their lives and fighting for that one in ten thousand chance of becoming immortals.

But now, this issue has to be questioned.

But they did not dwell on this issue for too long, and soon they gave their answers one after another.

"To be honest with Brother Bai Xiong, I don't want to ascend to heaven anymore." Venerable Du'e answered first.

As he spoke, he lit a cigarette for himself.

"I've practiced cultivation for thousands of years, and only in the past six months have I found the meaning of life. The immortal path isn't what I want. Playing mahjong, fishing, browsing my phone, and eating delicious food every day—isn't that wonderful?"

After saying that, he took a deep puff of his cigarette and his eyes became blurred.

"Brother Du'e's ideas are my ideas. Cultivating immortals is to go against the will of heaven, so I will just follow the will of heaven. You know what, following the will of heaven is pretty cool."

"To be frank, if we don't ascend, we can do whatever we want in Tianyuan Continent. Even if we ascend, our lives may not be our own."

"The main reason is that I can't even withstand the heavenly tribulation. Why would I bother to suffer for no reason? I recently learned a technique that allows me to transfer part of my cultivation to the younger generation. Every time I'm close to the critical point of overcoming the tribulation, I will share some of my cultivation with the younger generation in the sect."

"Brother Lingxin, what kind of technique is this? I want it too."

"This technique is great! It's amazing! Ever since fewer people have been practicing, the concentration of spiritual energy in Tianyuan Continent has increased. Even if I don't practice every day, my cultivation level will increase on its own. I can hardly suppress it anymore."

......

Obviously, no one present wanted to ascend to heaven, and their thoughts also represented the thoughts of most cultivators in the Tianyuan Continent today.

My cultivation does not mean that I will ascend. From this, we can imagine that the ascension rate of Tianyuan Continent will drop sharply in the future.

Lin Bai was not surprised at all after understanding their thoughts. After experiencing this day, he could understand everyone's thoughts. After all, life in Tianyuan Continent is getting better and better now. The immortals in the sky are probably not living as happily as these people present. They would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.
