As he carefully recalled the life Hundred Flowers Fairy had lived, Lu Yang was filled with emotion.
Lu Yang realized that every top martial artist, whether Hundred Flowers Fairy or Li Da Niu, had an obsession of their own—something they clung to their entire lives.
Li Da Niu's obsessions were Ye Xiao Luan, exterminating demons, and revenge.
Hundred Flowers Fairy's obsession, on the other hand, was her will to survive—to keep living.
It was by relying on these obsessions that these people had stood out in the vast river of history, becoming brilliant waves upon its surface.
"A person needs convictions of their own, obsessions of their own, to overcome every obstacle and grow stronger!" Lu Yang thought silently.
At that moment, he looked up at the gloomy sky and murmured, "What about me? What is my own obsession?"
The answer soon came to him.
His obsession was to comprehend the profound truths of heaven and earth and climb to the pinnacle of the Path of Martial Dao!
Nothing else mattered!
Drawing on the lives of two Peak Kings, he had come to understand his true self and reaffirmed his path in life. For Lu Yang, this was the greatest harvest of the trip.
The state of mind that had long been swayed by all manner of outside influences gradually settled.
By observing others and reflecting on himself, Lu Yang found that their lives were like clear springs, washing away the dust from his true nature.
Once calm, he began carefully examining what he had gained this time.
His attention first went to one of the two main goals of this journey: the top-rank wood cultivation technique, the Azure Wood Longevity Scripture.
After receiving another infusion of knowledge, the complete contents of the technique had appeared in Lu Yang's mind.
