Wandao long distance

In the blink of an eye, 17 years have passed.

In the past 17 years, Li Shiwei and Zhang You have followed this giant ship and wandered through the entire thirteen worlds in the world group. Each of these thirteen worlds has its own story and its own epic.

However, in the endless outside world, all epics are commonplace, and all stories are commonplace.

When the scale spans to the category of the endless outside world, nothing special is special, and all sacrifices are no longer sacrifices. There are countless worlds, countless civilizations, and the lights of those civilizations are flickering, but apart from themselves, very few Somebody cares about them.

However, Li Shiwei gradually gained fame, and began to spread the name of "hero" on the ship.

No one else, because she has shown... how should I put it, the qualities of a righteous hero in every world?

Ever since the sea hunting world, she seems to be obsessed with heroes?

She is no longer limited to attacking wild beasts, but also doing justice on the ship. After one incident after another, she seems to really enforce the law impartially, and has done a lot of things on the ship with her own identity and strength.

So, in one world after another, she has been carrying out this identity and style.

Thirteen worlds, 15 years, Li Shiwei's reputation has spread to many worlds and civilizations.

And the former captain, the one that Li Shiwei always called him "Leader", became a new guard in this giant ship, so Li Shiwei inherited his position and became the new captain, in charge of five of the giant ship. One-third of the law and order.

Her status is getting higher and higher, her prestige is getting higher and higher, but...

However, his cultivation has been stuck at the peak of the eighth rank, and there is no sign of loosening at all.

There is only one path open to her, and that is to use worship and admiration as the basis of the Tao, and use the method of Shinto to condense her faith to achieve longevity and become a wild god.

However, it is impossible for her to take this path. Li Shiwei, who was born in Wushen Mountain, knows very well that this kind of belief in becoming a god has an unstable foundation, and it is also an extremely inferior method in the divine way.

It was another ordinary day, Li Shiwei was on vacation today, and Zhang You was still at work.

Li Shiwei was sitting on her own chair. Now she no longer needs to live in a double dormitory. As the captain, she has her own independent area, which is even a cave, which provides various conveniences for cultivation.

On this giant ship, there are very few such areas, and it is the prerogative of the captain.

Li Shiwei sat on her chair.

She seems to have matured a lot in appearance, not the cute little girl she was back then.

It's just that the little bastard has a cultivation level after all, and he is also the son of the moon spirit, with extraordinary blood, and can live for hundreds of years even if he doesn't practice cultivation, so he still looks very young, like 20 years old.

"Boss, you still decide not to take the divine way?" The stone has hardly changed, it is still the same, but the cultivation base has improved a lot, and it has reached the peak of the eighth rank.

For a stone, 1000 years is just a flick of a finger. For a spirit transformed from precious jade like him, ten years is no different from yesterday. Theoretically speaking, the birth of a stone means eternal life.

After all, the foundation is the sixth-grade gem, it's just that you haven't developed your true strength. As long as you slowly develop your potential, the sixth-grade is almost a certainty.

"I definitely won't follow the way of gods. I pinched this off at the beginning, but... I'm really a little strange, why haven't I got a seventh grade yet?" Li Shiwei looked at her hand, a little puzzled.

"It's normal. You are only in your thirties, and you are still very young. You are already very powerful at the peak of the eighth rank." Shito comforted, after all, the seventh rank is too difficult.

Long live.

Proving longevity, how much achievement is this?How could it be so simple?

Li Qi was able to prove his longevity at the beginning, thanks to the Heavenly Demon who led him back to the edge of the universe, to listen to the magnificent reverberation of the universe when it was created, and to witness the opening of the infinite time and space, the universe is growing every minute and every second, There are new worlds being generated, seemingly infinite.

How could Li Shiwei have this opportunity?So of course I can only figure it out on my own.

"Well, it's just that it's hard to get useful opportunities on this ship. You have done a lot of things in the past ten years, boss. Should you satisfy your curiosity? Why don't you go home? Go find Zhu Ren?"

"Although the world is not big, after all, great powers gather together. When you return to the world, you will get a lot of enlightenment." Shito suggested to Li Shiwei.

"Forget it, when you come out, you will be at the eighth rank, and when you go back, you will still be at the eighth rank. How can you have the face to see your father? Besides, the seventh rank has already made some promises. Let's talk about it when we succeed." Li Shiwei shook his head: "Wait 40 If you can’t make it at the age of 40, go back. My father is already at the sixth rank, and my mother is at the fifth rank. Ten years is nothing to them. It’s a trivial matter. If it’s still like this at the age of [-], it’s not too late to go back.” Li Shiwei sighed said.

Shi Shi didn't feel anything, but continued to remind: "If you want to find opportunities above the seventh rank, you should still go to the world above the sixth rank, but our routes seem to be wandering around the seventh rank world, there is no sixth rank world, That's the mission of other ships, by the way...Boss, this ship is about to enter the cycle route, and the 20-year cycle is coming soon. After the next world ends, the next one will return to the Holy Flame Realm. Then there is the Sea Hunting World, with your character, you should be too lazy to go this time, right?"

"The looping route...ah, the next one will loop." Li Shiwei suddenly realized this.

In the beginning, this ship went to Hunting Sea World once every 20 years to receive goods.

That is to say, the route of this giant ship is to circle around a specific area and sail in a circle. After collecting a circle, it will take people back to the distribution center of the Holy Flame Realm, unload all the collected things, and replace a group of crew members. Then go again.

In other words, it is difficult to see new scenery while staying on this ship.

Li Shiwei is deeply convinced: "Indeed, this should also be considered. I will go to the leader. He is now the management of this ship. He should be able to approve my resignation. I have stayed long enough and I have some savings. , we should still make our own way.”

Of course, she was still the vigorous and resolute person before, and she did what she said, anyway, she was on vacation, so she went straight away.

Straight away, all the way non-stop.

Many people greeted her on the road, shouting "Captain Li!" and so on, and everyone was greeting her.

After all, because of Li Shiwei, many messy things on this ship have been resolved, and the merchants who traveled with them on the ship have also been relatively fair because of Li Shiwei, so her reputation is very high.

Li Shiwei greeted these people casually, but did not delay, and quickly came to the office of the former captain with facial paralysis.

Knock, knock, knock on the door lightly.

"Please come in." It was still the same cold voice, and the leader hadn't changed at all.

He is the seventh rank, and he is more than 2000 years old. Decades of time are far from enough to change her.

However, changing Li Shiwei is enough.

Li Shiwei opened the door and went in, looking at the former captain and now the management of Juchuan: "Leader, I have something to do with you."

"I'm really not used to it. When did you learn to knock on the door? The last time you came to me...was five years ago, right? The door was kicked open at that time." The former captain still had that expressionless look on his face. , but with a little more emotional color.

It should be an illusion. His tone and expression did not fluctuate, but the content made people feel a little teasing.

Li Shiwei didn't care about this ridicule, but said: "I will knock on the door when I was born, it just depends on whether I want to, leader, after this job is over, it's time to return to the Holy Flame Realm? The voyage is going to cycle."

"Yes, it's time to recycle, oh, I understand what you mean, if you don't want to recycle, then I can apply for another ship for you, a new route, and a different world this time." The captain seemed to see through Li Shiwei's thoughts at a glance What.

Obviously, he knew that Li Shiwei would never repeat this route.

"No, I want to resign. I have a good understanding of the affairs of the chamber of commerce. Moreover, I have recently discovered some commonalities. I plan to go deeper in this area and see if I can use this to forge my own seventh-rank Dao foundation." Li Shiwei waved his hand and said.

"Commonness? Oh? What commonality? Tell me?" the captain asked blankly.

To be honest, this kind of communication is quite awkward. The captain can clearly say something with emotion, but his tone and expression never change, including the eyes are always stagnant, making people feel creepy and uncomfortable.

"That is to say, now... I have watched more than a dozen worlds, and I have come into contact with thousands of civilizations on the ship, and some civilizations were even developed on the ship." Li Shiwei considered the language and began to explain.

Yes, there are many civilizations that are exclusive to the ship.

This two-thousand-mile-long, self-sufficient giant ship in the endless void can be said to be a small world in itself. This kind of giant ship, among which some races, will even multiply and live in the ship, forming a set that is completely attached to the giant ship. , without entering any world civilizations.

And these races have naturally become good helpers and assistants of the chamber of commerce. Many of the chores in the ship are done by this race, and they are better and more handy than others. What the chamber of commerce pays is just to let them live here Inside only.

For the mortal race, this kind of ship that wanders between worlds, with a cycle of 20 years and an estimated life span of tens of thousands of times, is more terrifying than those worlds.

This is Li Shiwei's harvest. As she has seen more and more worlds, Li Shiwei has become more and more familiar with these civilized races. She has learned about thousands of races and civilizations' histories, habits, temperaments, ways of practice, and their unique orthodox traditions. Each has its own perceptions and insights.

Then, she found some 'commonness' in it.

Some commonalities that all civilizations and all races obey.

Whether it is the aquarium in the sea, ore life in the land, plant civilization, ship civilization, or all aspects of the formation of the most humanoid races, tens of thousands of races, they seem to have different life characteristics and different traditional customs. , There are different paths of practice.

However, amidst all these differences, Li Shiwei saw that they seemed to follow the same thing faintly.

It's just that she still can't see clearly.

Her intuition told her that this might be where her seventh-rank chance lies.

Therefore, she resigned at this time, and she was going to wander outside the territory by herself, looking for commonalities among different civilizations.

This is also in line with the orthodoxy she practiced.

Li Shiwei is a practitioner of Taoism, and the first assumption of Taoism is that there is a "Supreme Supreme Dao". Everything is the evolution of this Dao, and everything is a derivative of this Dao.

The so-called "Tai Chi produces two appearances, two appearances produce four images, and four images produce eight trigrams", or "Tao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, three produces all things", and even "no name, the beginning of heaven and earth", these arguments are all is from here.

As a Daoist practitioner, Li Shiwei was going to lay down his seventh-rank Dao foundation from the aspect of finding commonness, and there was no problem at all.

She also thinks this is a very good direction, so she is going to work hard in this direction.

Therefore, she has to see more, to explore more worlds and study more civilizations in her lifetime, instead of contacting these existing civilizations on a ship.

The captain persuaded: "You are on the boat of the chamber of commerce. If you change to another boat, you can see a lot of different scenery. You don't have to resign in such a hurry. It's hard to find a job in the chamber of commerce. It's hard to get in. Now you are more or less considered You are a small middle class, you should know how much higher your power is than the ordinary eighth rank, and how many worlds have to obey your orders?"

"I suggest you don't resign. With this position, it will be much more convenient for you to collect epics and civilization progress. Sometimes you only need one order, and they will take the initiative to hand over their history to you. If you resign, you will be alone. At that time, it will be very difficult to collect these things.”

But Li Shiwei shook his head: "No, in this case, I can't tell what the commonality is. Even if I find the commonality of these worlds, can I distinguish these 'commonality', are they brought by the chamber of commerce, or are they natural? ?”

The captain was dumbfounded for a moment.

Indeed it is.

Doing these things in the Chamber of Commerce, these worlds naturally have a new commonality, that is, 'they are all related to the Chamber of Commerce'.

It is difficult to determine where this commonality comes from, so it is necessary to exclude variables, to see those worlds that have never had a relationship with the chamber of commerce, and to exclude all possible influencing factors to determine the final commonality.

If found, then there should be an explanation for Li Shiwei's Seventh Grade Dao Foundation.

The captain then said: "Indeed, you are right, um... In this case, you are leaving soon, I will give you a gift, I know a seventh-rank world that has never been set before a chamber of commerce, maybe it can help you."

Li Shiwei raised her head and said happily: "There is such a good thing in this world group? I am already preparing to go to another world group, and I have to be the leader. Okay, then I will accept this love!"
