The old monster can be said to be a living history book.
He is a witness of ancient times.
However, when some secrets are involved, they are unwilling to reveal anything, such as not telling Lin Xi why he cannot explore the things behind the heavenly condemnation, and why he had to encircle Wen Tianyu.
Now he seemed to know something again, but he fell into silence and refused to speak.
This silence lasted for a long time.
"You are planning to not talk to me about anything?" Lin Xi finally asked: "Who are the people you mentioned? You said this is the place where immortals become immortals, and they became immortals?"
The old monster seemed very melancholy: "I don't know, maybe it's a failure."
"Why?"
"If it is successful, how could there be no future generations who have recorded the great achievements of their predecessors? This is a shocking event. Since it has not been passed down, it will naturally be a failure. Since it has failed, what else can I say?"
The old monster's voice sounded extremely disappointed.
It can be seen that this may be something he cares about very much.
"It's not that you failed to become an immortal. Why are you so disappointed?" Lin Xi said with a smile.
The old monster is rare and extremely serious: "You don't understand. This is not a matter of one person, but a matter of the entire human race and even all living beings."
"I... don't quite understand."
"What do you think of cultivation for?"
Lin Xi had no doubt about this: "Eternal Life."
No matter what the original intention of embarking on the path of immortality was.
But in the end they will point to the ultimate goal - immortality.
"There is no real immortality in the world. No matter how amazing, powerful, and arrogant it is, it will never escape the end of time and the erasure of the way of heaven."
After practicing to the fusion state, you can theoretically achieve immortality because it has established a profound connection with the Great Dao unless the Great Dao dies.
But in fact, the fusion monk will still die.
Because of the great and large heavenly disasters.
And the road is not static.
Only by constantly moving forward can you continue to survive.
"Die, or immortality." said the old monster: "This is an obvious choice, but since no one in the world has truly achieved immortality, there are naturally no immortals in the world."
Lin Xi frowned, feeling that the logic was a bit uneven, but he did not mention it.
"Only by becoming an immortal can one live forever?" Lin Xi asked.
"yes."
"Why has no one ever become an immortal?"
"Because God doesn't allow it."
Lin Xi was stunned.
"You should know that the human race is not so powerful from the beginning."
Lin Xi nodded: "That has been through many years of research and creation, which has the splendid immortal cultivation civilization today."
"That's right, we have always believed that immortals exist, but we have never reached it. Only by constantly breaking through and breaking the will of the way of heaven can we truly override death."
Immortals, since no one can reach the realm.
No one can say whether the fairy world really exists.
But almost all monks would subconsciously believe that this is real, and Lin Xi is naturally no exception.
If the former immortal predecessors succeed and realize the truth and become immortals, it is equivalent to opening up a brand new path for all living beings.
This is a great event that brings blessings to all spirits.
It is equivalent to sublimating the entire spiritual world.
What a great achievement that was.
pity......
pity.
Lin Xi noticed something.
The old monster uses us to speak.
Obviously he is not a lonely man. At least he must have many like-minded partners when he is alive.
"What will happen if you fail to become an immortal?" Lin Xi asked.
The old monster said melancholy: "Of course I'm dead."
Lin Xi thought about it and couldn't help but laugh.
I really asked a stupid question.
People who were hundreds of thousands of years ago were of course dead. If they really survived, wouldn’t they really become immortal?
"If you fail, you will fail." Lin Xi had no feelings about becoming an immortal so far: "Since people in the past have not succeeded, people in the future will succeed sooner or later."
But the old monster obviously couldn't let it go so easily and remained silent about it.
After a long time he asked, "Where is this place?"
"Holy Dynasties for All Eternity."
"It seems... I haven't heard it."
"It's probably only after you die, after all, it's been so many years."
"This place is probably located in the northern border."
Lin Xi estimated for a while and said the general location of the Holy Dynasty of All Eternals.
"Is that right? No wonder I have a familiar aura. It's very close, very close." The old monster said to himself.
Lin Xi asked, "What's so close?"
"Lin Xi, can you take me around?"
The old monster's words were filled with a little plea.
Lin Xi hesitated for a while and did not refuse.
So Lin Xi left alone for the time being, and then wandered around Shenzhaodi.
Although the old monster has no physical body, its perception is still very sensitive.
All the aura around him made him feel familiar but unfamiliar.
"Can the hill ahead stop?" asked the old monster.
Lin Xi did not refuse.
Stay on the hill.
In the distance is a vast lake, with clear water and blue sky, and pleasant scenery. In the distance is a wide plain, with the turf shining brightly against the sunlight.
The rippling waves are refreshing.
This beautiful scenery is indeed worth stopping and watching.
The old monster sighed softly: "I remember that this place should have been a stretch of mountains before, but it was not as Lingshan. It was not even a mortal dynasty, but it could only be regarded as a remote barren mountain. There is a small village at the foot of the mountain, with only a few hundred households.
People, villagers make a living by digging medicinal materials in the mountains. From time to time, they can dig up some spiritual herbs with thin spiritual energy, which can be sold at a good price, and their lives are also considered moist."
Lin Xi listened quietly, without interruption.
The true feelings in the other person's words make people feel sad inexplicably.
"It is naturally impossible for such a small village to exist for so long. It would be amazing to last for hundreds of years, not to mention that hundreds of thousands of years have passed." The old monster laughed at himself.
This is his home.
A young and tender boy who collected herbs accidentally found a long-decayed monk's body while collecting herbs. The newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. He endured the stench and walked forward and touched it for a while, and found a low-level martial art and a few inferior gatherings.
Pill.
Then he embarked on the road of cultivating immortals.
He has never come back to check it out.
It's like a devil is crazy and only cares about practicing.
Now that I have returned, things have changed and nothing has existed.
"Let's go, let's go." The old monster urged.
Lin Xi did not hesitate and wandered around here.
Whenever he went there, the old monster would sigh for a while, and Lin Xi also understood that this was probably where he lived.
Falling leaves return to their roots.
The same is true for the ancestor of Fairy Qingyan.
After I died, I still wanted to go home.
The old monster's voice gradually became smaller: "Lin Xi, thank you."
"Hmm? Old monster, what are you doing!" Lin Xi was shocked.
He felt the old monster's soul power gradually weakening.
The old monster who was silly and despised Lin Xi actually chose to dissipate by himself.
"It's probably God's will. My obsession has been completely eliminated today. Why should I survive in this world?" The old monster's voice was relieved and satisfied: "You said it well. What the predecessors couldn't do, so leave it to future generations.
Do it.”
He has planned to resurrect hundreds of thousands of years to make a stronger life and for immortality.
But after all, he still wants to see the future.
Lin Xi's eyes flashed with shock, then suddenly realized it and shouted loudly: "Old monster, are you one of the most amazing people in ancient times you mentioned?
"Of course." The old monster said proudly: "I'm Shangguan Yu."
Only then did Lin Xi discover a problem.
I have never asked the other person what status he was during his lifetime.
It’s just that the other party wants to become a ghost saint, so he subconsciously believes that the other party is only at most a state of harmony with the Tao.
