Bab 243: WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THE PATH OF CULTIVATION?
Ben and others were surprised. They thought that Arjun would be happy when Ben revealed the importance behind the sword.
Ben asked, " What do you mean by that big brother?"
Arjun said, " First answer me a question? Why do you want to become a cultivator?"
Ben and others were stunned. In fact, they also don't know why they chose to walk on the path of the cultivation. They doesn't have any clarity behind their choice. They became cultivators because majority of the world walks on this path.
Arjun could see how messy their mind is at the moment. He was really disappointed to be honest. Ben and his group really had some talent. But this was the most important question which 99% of the world didn't have the answer for. Ben was no exception.
Arjun smiled and said, " See. None of you have the clarity behind your choice. Most of the people walks on the path of cultivation because they think it's mandatory. Since most of the people walks on the path, others also choose that path blindly. No one has the right answer behind their choice. Some people thinks that cultivation would give them long life. Some people trains in order to show their proudness over the weak. Some people walks on this path because they wants to rule the world. But 99% of the cultivators do not have the true clarity. Even you people are no exception. Look at yourselves. How white is your face."
The room fell silent. In fact, they never asked themselves why they wants to be a cultivators in the first place. Now that Arjun asked them, they started to think about it.
Allen asked curiously, " Big Brother! What about you? Why are you walking on the path of cultivation?"
Everyone paid attention to Arjun. In fact, that was the right question. Since Arjun was the one who asked them that question, he will definitely have answer for himself. Arjun's answer might give them an idea why they all walked on the path of cultivation.
Arjun said, " Me? Alright! The reason why I cultivate is because I want to become the strongest, peerless, and mightiest person in the entire Chaos World. But I have other reasons to. I want to have my own adventures. I want to rescue the innocents from any difficulties. I want to annihilate the evil. I want to create the world where people live in peace."
"Protecting the weak and innocent?" , Ben said, " That's interesting. I think i'll put that in my mind."
Bella said in little hesitation, " Huh.. big brother! What is Chaos World?"
Everyone once again looked at Arjun. Because even they also don't know what Chaos World is.
Arjun replied, " Alright! I'll tell you. But you should promise me that you won't tell this I anyone."
"We promise you big brother! We won't tell anyone." , all of them said.
Arjun nodded his head. He said, " We live on a planet which we call it a realm. There are countless realms like this exists in the vast container. We call this vast container as Universe. That's all you know as I presume. But the thing that you don't know is that, there are billions of Universe like ours exist in another container. That container is called as Chaos World."
All of them were stunned. They couldn't even imagine how vast their world is. Their world is just a small pebble in the vast universe. They don't even know how vast the universe is. But the world that contains not one but billions of universes, just what is the true limit for this vast...everything.
They looked at Arjun. This kind of ambitions could only be dreamt by a genius like Arjun. Their admiration for Arjun grew even more. But they learned an important lesson today. Before starting something, they should have clarity over why they are doing it.
But they started to lose confidence within them. Arjun's ideas, the way of thinking and talent was way too far from their own. With each revelation, they are learning that the distance between them and Arjun was widening.
Arjun sensed what was going through their mind. He said, " Why are you at low spirits? Don't compare yourselves with me. I may make some good decisions at the right time. But I was the same as you once upon a time. But because of interaction with the world, and with the vast experience I have, I am whatever I am today. That's why I told you to stop taking orders from others. You should rely on your own selves. When you face different situations and overcome it, you will automatically become sharp."
These words raised some confidence within them. But the thing that Arjun don't know is what kind of positive impact today's discussion will bring on them. After completion of his test Arjun will go back to his realm. Later Ben will take charge as the pavilion lord and based on their experience with Arjun and every lesson they learned, they will mature to the point where It will shock even Arjun. Of course! All this will happen when Arjun meets them next time. But today they will start working hard.
Ben asked, " But big brother! What all this has to do with handing over the sword to the royal kingdom and making profit over it? It is actually a good deal right?"
Arjun said, " First you tell me. What is the importance of that sword?"
Ben replied, " It is said that, Princess Shayana wanted those six prince to die in the hands of her husband. So she has turned her husband into that sword. That means only that sword could kill those six prince. Their descendants might have affected with that curse. But it was because of the physical contact they come while they were in their mother's womb. But they will die if we kill them. But those six prince won't die by any means. Only that sword would kill them. Why would you ask that Big brother?"
Arjun replied, " Didn't I already told you that one of the reason why I cultivate is to protect the innocent people? If we handover the sword, then do you think the problem with the curse of Princess Shayana would be solved? If we handover the sword to the royal bloodline, it might give us some unimaginable benefits. But at the same time it will bring us some disaster. Do you guarantee that the curse won't affect you by any means? The only way to put an end to this mess is by solving the curse. And the curse could only be solved by killing the six prince with this sword. Do you know how important this sword for the future of mankind is? Benefits? Well there are so many ways to get the benefits and take our pavilion to the top. But this kind of shortcuts is what I hate the most."
Arjun's face turned serious all of a sudden. He said, " I would rather disband our pavilion instead of doing the things that will harm the future of mankind only to seek greater benefits."
Ben and others bent their heads in shame and embarrassment.
