Chapter 670: Eight Directions Map's Fourth Level

In the fourth space of the book.

Feather Fire Lord's light glimmered, casting a warm glow throughout the fourth space of the book. Xu Jingming sat attentively, listening intently to every word.

"The manifestation of emotions lies beyond the realm of the mind," proclaimed Feather Fire Lord. "Desire, on the other hand, is a spark that ignites within. Every emotion is merely an extension of that inner desire."

"Desire drives evolution," he continued. "We strive to evolve and improve our lives because of a deep-seated desire to survive. Strong desires like greed, a thirst for power—these things all drive progress."

"Unbridled desires can also push living beings to the brink."

"All living beings have desires," he stated. "Without desire, they are not truly alive, just mere puppets."

Xu Jingming listened, hanging onto every word.

"Where does desire come from?" asked Feather Fire Lord. "If you seek its source, you will find… the body."
