Chapter 2602: The last grain of sand

Zhang Shou, supported by the girl, walked step by step.
Although the light dissipated, there is still a lingering light in this world, like a rainbow.
He walked hard around a huge statue.
In the distance, many white-clothed gods and kings stood on the tops of mountains. Like Zhang Shou, they looked at the hundred-foot-high statue in front of them.
The statue is a man.
Levitating in the air, one hand was raised high, five fingers clenched, and he threw a punch toward the sky.
It is Meng Fan.
"Weathering..." Zhang Shou said with a trembling voice: "In the face of destiny, everything is irreversible, immovable, and immutable, just like a stone."
The girl stretched out her hand and gently stroked the statue in front of her: "It looks like an immortal monument."
"He is also the true meaning of multiple avenues. He is the little heaven, the creator, and of course he will turn into an immortal monument after death." Zhang Shou whispered, "I will live forever."
"It's over." The girl said sadly: "Such a powerful figure, a hero of the wind, turned into a statue, standing here forever?"
"In front of the Dao of Heaven, everything is small and fragile." Zhang Shou sighed: "This is the sorrow of all beings, but it is also the hope of all beings. The Dao of heaven gives all beings a goal that can be pursued in their lives, and that they can walk a lifetime. Dadao, as long as sentient beings follow the will of heaven, they can gain immortality or liberation."
The girl looked at the stone statue with blinking eyes, and then said for a long time: "What about now?"
"Set up a stone monument for him." Zhang Shou said: "To memorialize him forever and write him in the history books."
"Is he the chosen one?" the girl asked.
Zhang Shou's eyes suddenly became a little confused.
"He is the only existence that has become a little heavenly path throughout the ages. It can be said that he is the person closest to the heavenly path, so he should be the person chosen by the heavenly path, but...how can the person who heavenly path chooses to die in the heavenly path? Hands."
Zhang Shou fell into hard thinking.
"Lingling, what do you think?" Zhang Shou suddenly turned his head and asked the girl.
The girl shook her head: "Grandpa Zhang, let's not think about it, God has its own arrangements."
"Yes...Yes..." Zhang Shou nodded, "Heaven has its own arrangements." The eyebrows also stretched out.
"Grandpa Zhang, I want to tell you one thing..." Lingling said solemnly: "Hourglass."
Zhang Shou was startled.
In that completely white space, many white-robed kings stood together, each one had extremely complicated eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
However, Zhang Shou stood there completely dumbfounded, motionless.
In front of many gods.
The hourglass, which has been flowing for hundreds of thousands of years, has very little sand left on it.
To be precise, there is only one left.
This last piece of sand is swaying, shaking, and seems to fall at any time.
Many kings in white clothes all held their breath.
An hour passed.
Two hours passed.
Ten hours passed.
None of the white kings left, they all waited in silence, waiting for the arrival of the final moment.
"For so many years, the fastest time when a grain of sand falls is one in half an hour, and the slowest time is one in three or four hours." Zhang Shou suddenly said softly, breaking for ten hours, approaching A silence of day and night.
"There are tens of thousands of sand grains in it. Why are they all flowing in a short period of time?" asked a king in white.
Zhang Shou was silent.
But many kings in white clothes had the answer in their hearts.
When Zhang Shou was struggling to pursue the chosen person, the sand began to flow crazily.
And when this man of choice was weathered into a huge immortal monument that has never been seen before, the last grain of sand in the hourglass stopped again.
Is all this a coincidence?
Lingling cautiously said: "So...this Meng Fan is really the chosen one? The final catastrophe of the Heavenly Dao will be triggered by him, so when he arrives, the hourglass falls quickly and time passes quickly, so he Dead, the final catastrophe did not come?"
Zhang Shou's expression became extremely gloomy and tangled, and it could be seen that he was in pain, because he couldn't think through and couldn't understand, so he was in pain.
It was so painful that he let out a faint groan, and then fell backward, and was immediately supported by several white-clothed kings.
What Lingling said seems to be good.
The will of heaven is unpredictable, and Zhang Shou, hundreds of thousands of years ago, felt the will of heaven, so he used his wisdom, spent many years to appreciate the will of heaven, and gradually came up with some answers.
First of all, when the hourglass is shining, the final catastrophe that heaven has brewed for many years will come, destroying everything and obliterating all the kings who steal the power of heaven and change their fate against heaven.
Secondly, Heaven is waiting for a person, a chosen person, a "spokesperson" who can take the place of Heaven, walk the cosmos, convey the will of Heaven, and show the majesty of Heaven.
Zhang Shou once thought that he was the chosen person, but he did not get the approval of the heaven. In order to prove himself, he set off the Taiping Uprising to overthrow the Dharma and the Heaven and establish the first supreme heaven controlled by the heaven.
And this supreme celestial dynasty will become the "secular sword" of the heavens. The heavens are high above. For any king, the heavens are the true gods. In contrast, the creation gods live in a certain corner, and the Chaos Great Emperor, It is the most powerful creature, only the way of heaven is the true god.
In front of the true gods, all gods and supreme celestial dynasties are all worlds and mortals.
Zhang Shou wanted to establish a heavenly dynasty in the "mortal world".
But he failed.
In that failure, many pious gods died.
He also gradually understood that he was not the chosen person. He began to abandon selfishness and arrogance. He understood that his mission was to dedicate everything to heaven, even if it was his own life. Every creature has its own mission. His mission is not to be the spokesperson of the way of heaven.
So he wanted to die.
And he, who was bound to die, was saved by Heaven.
He knew that his mission had not been completed.
He knew that Heaven needs someone to replace Heaven to find the chosen person.
In his heart, this man of choice does not seem to have any necessary connection with the hourglass. It is only in Zhang Shou’s inference that when the final catastrophe comes, the way of heaven will not destroy everything, but with the power of fate. Kind of the true meaning of the Great Dao, especially the will of the Dao of Heaven, to control the people who survived and accept the rule of the Dao.
And this person who is chosen by heaven must replace the way of heaven and exercise this right in the "mortal world."
Could it be that... this Meng Fan was the one chosen by Heaven?
And because of his death, the last grain of sand did not fall?
