Chapter 669: Life and Death of the Soul
"What?" Lu Yifan almost jumped up in fright when he heard Impermanence's words, he stared at Impermanence with an ugly face that was still as plain as water, and his mouth opened and closed for a long time and he couldn't figure out where to start with the whole thing. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Lu Yifan hurriedly looked down at his slightly illusory body, and then shook his limbs a few times, raising his eyes to look at the white space around him, he couldn't have imagined that he would die so inexplicably. I don't know how long he hesitated, Lu Yifan finally slowly recovered from the shock of hearing the news of his death, and his expression gradually changed from the initial shock and horror to a touch of bitterness and helplessness, looking down at his body floating in the white vastness, and muttered to himself with a smile: "It turns out that this is the feeling after people die......
"What does it feel like?" impermanence asked rhetorically with interest.
"I can't say it, except for the many unresolved regrets in my heart, the other feelings are not bad. Lu Yifan raised his eyes and smiled bitterly, "At least there is no pain and no disaster, and I am conscious." Saying that, Lu Yifan subconsciously looked around left and right, his eyes full of curiosity seemed to be trying to find something.
"What are you looking for?" asked Impermanence.
"Others...... No, it should be someone else who died. Lu Yifan corrected his own wording and said, "There are so many people dying every day in the world, why don't I see any of them here? Is it because the Sumeru Holy Realm is too big?"
"It is true that many people die every day in the world, but who told you that they will come to the Sumeru Sacred Realm after they die?"
"Could it be...... This is also the prerogative of God?" Compared to Lu Yifan just now, he was a lot more free and easy at the moment, and there was a bit of relaxation in his words, "Only when a god dies will he go to the Sumeru Holy Realm?"
"Whether it is a human being or a god, after death, he will turn into a chaos and wander between heaven and earth, colorless, phaseless, silent, and without any sanity to speak of. Impermanence replied lightly.
"Then what am I ......" Lu Yifan was stunned when he heard this, originally he thought that everyone in the world could appear in the Sumeru Holy Realm after death, and he thought that he could see the dead Lu Jun or the Immortal Ancestor again, but just now after hearing the meaning of the impermanence, it seems that only he can appear in the Sumeru Holy Realm so soberly after death, and the rest of the people and gods will become a chaotic qi after death.
"What I just said about you is dead, and death is not the same as what ordinary people understand. Impermanence smiled, "The death of others may be due to natural disasters, or due to *, or due to longevity." In a word, the death of ordinary people is from prosperity to decline. And your 'death' is the opposite, your death is from decline to prosperity. ”
Impermanence's words made Lu Yifan listen to it like a monk who couldn't figure it out at all, and could only ask in a stupid way as if he didn't understand: "Lord Impermanence, then am I dead or not? I can't understand what is from prosperity and decline? I can't understand what is from decline and prosperity, I just want to know whether I am a dead person or a living person now?"
Impermanence nodded and said: "The life and death of ordinary people are caused by fate, and if they are in distress on the way, whether it is a natural disaster*, they are forced to die passively out of helplessness, which is from prosperity to decline." And if a person's life and death are neither fateful or passively forced to die, but actively die, if he is not a madman, then it can probably be regarded as declining and flourishing. Do you understand that?"
Lu Yifan was expressionless, but he was secretly distressed in his heart: "If I listen to it and understand it, I only teach me that the sky thunders and splits, and the words of the impermanent adult are mysterious and mysterious, I am like listening to the book of heaven, how can I understand?" Although Lu Yifan was distressed in his heart, he did not dare to refute it on the surface, because after all, this is the Sumeru Holy Realm, and the old man in front of him is even more unfathomable, if he blindly vetoes it, he is afraid that he will annoy impermanence, and there will definitely be no good fruit to eat at that time.
"Do you understand?" impermanence asked again.
Lu Yifan grinned bitterly and nodded plausibly, but he secretly thought in his heart: "Seeing that Lord Impermanence explained so seriously, if I can't understand it anymore, wouldn't I have to ask for hardship?" Lu Yifan, Lu Yifan, Ling'er is right, your head is really a dead elm pimple, not bright at all, if Yulou is here, you will definitely be able to understand the meaning of Lord Impermanence's words." As soon as he thought of Han Ling'er and Yulou, Lu Yifan's heart couldn't help but resurface a touch of sadness, and he secretly said in his heart: "Now I am dead no matter what, and since then I have been separated from Ling'er and Yulou, I am afraid that I will never see them again...... It's a pity that I, Lu Yifan, have never seen my unborn child...... "Under the sadness, Lu Yifan has no intention of doing too much entanglement on whether he is from prosperity and decline or from decline to prosperity, death is death, and the sadness that had just been extinguished came to my mind again, and I couldn't help but ask Xiang Impermanence in a lonely manner, "Lord Impermanence, who killed me in the end? But Dongfang Su? Or was I found out by someone after I fell into a coma, and then killed?"
Hearing this, Impermanence couldn't help frowning slightly, shook his head and said, "It seems that you still haven't understood what I mean, if you are killed, how can you be called from decline to prosperity?"
"What do you mean?" Lu Yifan couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, and then asked suspiciously again, "I wasn't killed by someone, could it be that I was seriously injured and died?"
"Definitely!" Impermanence shook his head, "You didn't die at their hands, but you killed your own soul. ”
"I killed my own soul?" Lu Yifan repeated the words of impermanence thoughtfully, muttering, "What does this mean? Could it be that I committed suicide? But why didn't I know that I committed suicide?"
"Do you know that people have three souls and seven souls? Three souls are born and dead, and seven souls are destined for souls. Impermanence explained unhurriedly, "Now that the soul of your three souls has been broken, and since you are a descendant of the gods, the souls of ordinary people contain personality, and your souls contain the godhead, in other words, now your godhead has been killed." But it's not that someone else has taken your godhead, it's that you've broken your own godhead. ”
"Why do I want to break my own godhead?" Lu Yifan became more anxious at the moment, the more panicked he became, and the more panicked he became, the more he didn't know where to start.
"All of this is due to the exercises you have cultivated. When Impermanence said this, the corners of his mouth actually raised a rather gratifying smile.
"Impermanence is what he said...... Soul Punishment Technique?" Lu Yifan whispered to himself with a frown.
"Not bad. Impermanence said, "It is precisely because it is necessary to destroy your own soul first to break through the Heavenly Realm, if you are just a mortal who relies on a mere personality to break through the Heavenly Realm, I am afraid that you have already scattered all three souls and disappeared by now." It is precisely because your soul contains a godhead, so the soul punishment exercise to break through the heavenly realm only shatters your godhead, but it does not hurt your heavenly soul and earth soul, and only one of your three souls is lost, and two souls remain, so you can now stand soberly here and ask me questions. ”
"Soul Punishment Exercise...... Breaking through the Heavenly Realm ......" Lu Yifan's shock at this moment was even more intense than when he heard the news of his death before, he still clearly remembers the first time he saw impermanence, impermanence had personally told him that no one had ever been able to cultivate the soul punishment technique to the heavenly realm, and now he actually broke through the soul punishment technique at the time of life and death, but the price paid was also something that Lu Yifan did not expect to be killed, it turned out to be his own life and soul godhead, such a violent shock made Lu Yifan not know whether to be happy or sad at this moment.
"Punish the soul and punish the soul, I didn't expect that what I punished is really the soul of a human being......" Lu Yifan's eyes muttered uncertainly, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he quickly raised his head and asked Impermanence, "Lord Impermanence just said that my godhead has been broken, so am I a human being or a god now?"
"You have neither personality nor Godhead now, so you should be neither human nor god, or nothing at all. Impermanence never seemed to take into account Lu Yifan's feelings, as straightforward as ever and did not contain any joy or anger, "Don't forget that the exercises you practice are 'soul punishment', how can you yourself keep your soul when the soul is completed? No one has ever cultivated the Soul Punishment Exercise to the Heavenly Realm, and therefore no one has ever known how incredible it is when the Soul Punishment Exercise is cultivated to the peak of perfection? Now let me tell you, if someone can cultivate the Soul Punishment Exercise to the Heavenly Realm, then he will be free from the shackles of the underworld and transcend the cycle of life and death in the world. ”
"How do you say this?" Lu Yifan was inexplicably agitated by the words of impermanence.
"It means that in the future, you will be free to exist in the Five Domains or the Pure Glass God Realm, and you will no longer be restricted by heavenly punishment if you exert all your strength in any space. "Impermanence, "If you have divine power, then you will no longer be punished by heaven after you exert your divine power in the Five Domains. Because you have no soul at the moment, you can no longer dictate which world you should exist in, so if you lose everything, you will have everything. ”
"Then I won't die?" Lu Yifan asked with a little excitement.
"Actually, you can't be called alive now, although you don't have a life soul, you still have two souls. Therefore, once your only remaining Heaven and Earth Soul is broken, then you will be completely wiped out, and you will no longer have the opportunity to reincarnate your soul. On the other hand, as long as your heaven and earth souls are not destroyed, then you will have eternal life. This is the miracle that the Soul Punishment Exercise brings to you, and whether this effect is a good thing or a bad thing depends on your own understanding. Impermanence said solemnly.
Lu Yifan seemed to hear a hint of clues, and asked suspiciously: "How can the two souls of heaven and earth be destroyed?"
"How did Lu Jun die?" Impermanence asked rhetorically.
"Being ...... Killed ......" Lu Yifan's expression darkened suddenly, obviously he didn't seem to mention this sad past.
"It's the same with you, if you are killed, your two souls of heaven and earth will cease to exist. Having a lifeless soul has nothing to do with your own cultivation, and killing or being killed has nothing to do with whether you have a lifeless soul. It's just that ordinary people die, and what they lose is their souls, but there are still two souls of heaven and earth wandering in the underworld, and there is a chance to be reincarnated. And when you die, you are completely dissolved. "Impermanence," although the soul punishment technique breaks your life and soul, although it will cause you great harm, but its original intention is to break your life limit, so that you can have unlimited opportunities to perform it to the fullest. However, taking a step back, it is no easy to kill you who have already cultivated the Soul Punishment Technique to the Heavenly Realm. At the very least, there is no one in the Five Realms who can have this kind of ability. ”
"No matter how strong a person is, he is still a person, but they can be a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand masters. Lu Yifan smiled bitterly, then changed his words and asked, "Just now, Lord Impermanence said that there is still the possibility of reincarnation after death...... In this way, Lu Jun, there is still a possibility that they will be resurrected?"
Impermanence shook his head and said, "Reincarnation is not about resurrection from the dead. Reincarnation is determined by creation, and the previous life and this life are even more separated by yin and yang, and if you die, you will die, and you will never see each other again. For example, now that there is a man you don't know and you and he are a husband and wife in your previous life, what should you do? Do you want to abandon Han Ling'er and reunite with your wife in your previous life?"
"This ......" was asked by impermanence, and Lu Yifan was immediately speechless.
"You feel embarrassed, reincarnation is the creation of heaven and earth, Lu Jun in this life may be male or female, or it may be a dog or a pig in the next life, too many variables are in a fixed number, you will never see the Lu Jun you know again. Even if you can see Lu Jun's reincarnation in the future by chance, then he will no longer be Lu Jun, but a completely different person, you will eventually be strangers, and you will only be sad alone. What's more, reincarnation is the heavenly opportunity, and the world will never know anything about it. "Impermanence," therefore, cherishing the people of this life, cherishing the things of this life, and cherishing the fate of this life is the true meaning of your life, and you don't have to be too attached to the matter of reincarnation, just like the reflection you just saw, after all, it is just the moon in the water. ”
Lu Yifan nodded and said: "Having said that, but it is better to have reincarnation, although I know that I will never see each other again, but there is always an illusion that he continues to live in a corner of the world in another capacity, which can also be a little gratifying." ”
"Instead of lamenting those who have passed away, it is better to care about yourself now. Impermanence smiled, "Remember when I asked you, do you know who you really are?" I think you should have the answer by now. ”
Lu Yifan smiled bitterly: "Yes, yes, but it was gone just now." Looking at Impermanence's slightly interested gaze, Lu Yifan continued to explain, "I am the Immortal Heaven, the only surviving descendant of the Immortal Divine Clan. But now that the Godhead is inexplicably gone, how can I know who I really am now that I am neither a human nor a god?"
"Haha......" Impermanence laughed loudly when he heard this, "Although the soul is determined by heaven, your true identity in the world is not controlled by the soul of life. It's like if you have been a person in the Sacred Realm for so many years, don't you still claim to be Lu Yifan? Whether it is Lu Yifan in the Sacred Realm, or the Underworld of the Divine Realm, it is just an identity that is revealed in front of outsiders. In the final analysis, you are still the same as you have never changed, it was you when you were Lu Yifan, you were the one when you were the underworld, you are now, and you will still be you in the future. ”
Impermanence's words made Lu Yifan suddenly, just now he was still discouraged because of the loss of his godhead and became an immortal lonely soul and wild ghost, at this moment after hearing the teachings of impermanence, Lu Yifan really understood that the biggest difference between living and dead is not whether he has a life soul that determines belonging, but whether he still has the heart that remembers everything worth cherishing.
"If you forget to love and be loved, then living is equivalent to dying, and ......vice versa" Lu Yifan nodded thoughtfully, and then he suddenly raised his head with a pair of dark eyes staring straight at the impermanence of laughing and silent, the original illusory body was gradually becoming solid in a white vastness, and after a while, Lu Yifan's body was no longer illusory, but as solid as a rock, as steady as Mount Tai, under the gaze of impermanence, the corners of Lu Yifan's mouth finally raised a confident smile, and said: "I'm not dead, I'm still alive!"
