Chapter Eighty-Four: The Sun in the Water
Can an immortal become an immortal?
Theoretically, it is possible, because according to the theory that now combines the East and the West, becoming an immortal is a process of transformation, so the immortal has been reborn, and has essentially become a higher-dimensional existence, thus causing rejection in the world.
Vertically, immortals can be divided into human immortals, demons into immortals, and so on. But if you look at it horizontally, it is the difference between immortals and mortals, whether people become immortals or demons become immortals, they are all immortals. This process of rebirth is called extraordinary.
Of course, immortals can also be transformed into higher-dimensional existences, and the key is to have spirits. From Wu Niang's situation, she is far luckier than other immortals, and she has also gone further.
However, she is still stuck in the most critical step, which is the body. Wu Niang uses the "Seven Birds and Five Fire Fans" as her body, which is naturally extremely strong, and the immortals can't kill her. But the problem is also here, with such a strong body, Wu Niang can't be reborn at all, the rebirth of immortals is essentially broken and standing, how can immortals be broken? Since it can't be broken, how can it be broken and stand? So Wu Niang has always been a pseudo-immortal.
There are gains and losses, and the ontology of "Seven Birds and Five Fire Fans" is not only Wu Niang's biggest dependence, but also Wu Niang's biggest limitation.
If Wu Niang wants to go further, she must get rid of the restrictions of "Seven Birds and Five Fire Fans" and become a truly independent individual.
At this point, the elves of Emperor Liu are even more clever, they have never taken Emperor Liu as their body, and naturally they are not restricted by Emperor Liu, and they become immortals early. Although it fell, it still left a little Yin. If you take the emperor willow as your body, it is really hard to imagine how to reincarnate the huge emperor willow, but I am afraid that I can't move, and I can't leave the ghost country cave for half a step, even if I have the power of immortals, there is no fun at all.
This is also a problem that many demons are difficult to become immortals, one is the problem of intelligence, and the other is the problem of body. The spirit is too low, and after living for decades, it is equivalent to a human child, and before he can understand what immortality means, he dies. The second is that the body is too strong, and it is even more difficult to stand up after breaking it, and even needs the help of the little tribulation. For the demons, the Little Heavenly Tribulation is not only an obstacle and a test, but also a help to cross the last threshold.
Therefore, throughout the ages, there are very few demons who can become immortals, most of them have eaten some kind of heavenly treasure to prolong their lifespan, and slowly opened their minds through long years, which is no different from ordinary people, and then experienced nine deaths and a life of hardship to become immortals.
As for Lu Wushen, he was born as an immortal, or an immortal beast, so he doesn't need to think about these issues.
In fact, this is a product of when the world is not completely "solidified", because it has not yet stabilized, so there is such a "loophole". Now, when the world has entered the Tai Chi period, it is incomparably real, incomparably solid, and incomparably stable, and there will be no such innate immortal beasts anymore.
Otherwise, the human race is the darling of heaven and earth, whether it is spiritual wisdom or body, it is just right, no more and no less, and its own life span is not long, but it is the most suitable for longevity.
In addition to the human race, the dragon race is also a race that is easy to become immortals, although the physique is strong, and it also has to experience a small catastrophe, but it is born with the same intelligence as a human, and it has a long lifespan. The only downside is that the children are difficult. Once there is a conflict with others, even the redemption is a big loss.
The war between the Jiaolong clan and the Daomen ended with the Jiaolong clan being almost wiped out.
Instead of being seriously injured, Daomen stepped on the corpse of the dragon and crossed the sky and became the master of the Eastern World.
As for other things other than humans and demons becoming immortals, there are too few samples to explore the law, so they can only explore it alone. It is difficult for anyone other than the person concerned to tell.
Wu Niang said that her fate might be in Payiti, most of them were not casual nonsense, after all, Wu Niang had been in the Southern Continent for a while, and she would only know more about this place than Qi Xuansu, not less than Qi Xuansu.
However, Qi Xuansu didn't ask much, he, the lucky person with the hope of immortality, it was difficult to understand the pain of not being able to live forever - although Qi Xuansu was not a hope of immortality before he got the "Heart of the Immortal Stone", after all, he was young, he did not have a sense of urgency to face death, and he did not have an urgent motivation for immortality, and he was thinking more about how to promote to heaven and man at that time. Even if he dies, it will be seventy or eighty years later, and it will be too early, and then we will talk about it. How can a young man under the age of twenty understand the length and heaviness of a hundred years?
Wu Niang certainly has a sense of urgency
, Her concept of time is obviously different from Qi Xuansu when she was young, she has lived for several seventy or eighty years, this time is not very long for her, a hundred years have passed in a hurry, and it is not an exaggeration for her.
The point is that the era of the end of the law is coming, and so many immortals want to escape from the world, isn't it because of this? It's hard to say what will happen to the immortals after the end of the law comes, no matter how you look at it, it's the best choice for the immortals to leave.
As Wu Niang pushed open the gate of the palace, the two walked into the dilapidated palace, and it could be seen that although the royal family had been forced by the ancient gods to be very embarrassed, they still evacuated in an orderly manner, so they did not leave too much valuable things.
However, the two of them did not come to the palace to hunt for treasures, the key is to find the gateway to the cave.
The two split into two ways, each looking for it.
This palace is said to be big and big, and it is still much smaller than the Great Xuan Palace, and it is enough for two people.
Legend has it that tomb robbers are divided into several genres, such as touching gold, moving mountains, sending mounds, unloading mountains, and so on. If Qi Xuansu does this business, then he definitely belongs to the Jieling faction, this faction never engages in bells and whistles, and has no technology, just relies on brute force to produce miracles, usually hundreds of people digging, explosives break the door, and brute force. Qi Xuansu's search for Payiti is like this, sending people to search in a dragnet style, slowly narrowing down the scope, it doesn't matter what you look at feng shui, guess riddles, and find clues.
The same is true at this time, although there are only two people, Qi Xuansu and Wu Niang, but the two of them are here, and they are swept over inch by inch with their divine thoughts, no matter what exquisite design you have, ignore it.
I have to say that stupid methods are as reliable as machines.
After searching for a long time, Wu Niang found something strange in an inner hall, the layout here is very similar to the temple, but there is no known god enshrined, Wu Niang looked at the stone people who were only the size of a human head, probably some kind of ancestor worship, and no longer cared. Wu Niang found that the temple here seemed to be empty, and she didn't talk nonsense, and directly lifted the entire ground.
Then I found a downward entrance, maybe there used to be a formation to cover it, but now it is gone.
Wu Niang called Qi Xuansu, who was searching on the other side, and the two entered it together.
This passage was very narrow at the beginning, and the further down it went, the wider it became, and there were dense mechanisms along the way, poisonous arrows and stabbing ground, snakes and insects falling stones, poisonous fog traps, everything, it can be said that it was heavily guarded. It's just that these organs failed to stop the ancient gods at the beginning, and they didn't stop Qi Xuansu and Wu Niang at this time.
However, the ancient gods were light and light, and they didn't even trigger the mechanisms, and Qi Xuansu and Wu Niang had to spend a lot of time to break these mechanisms one by one.
After walking out of this way for a while, the two finally walked out of the passage, and their eyes suddenly opened up, and there was really a cave.
There is an underground lake here, which is quite large.
Qi Xuansu looked at the underground lake in front of him: "Could it be that the entrance to Payiti is at the bottom of the lake?"
Wu Niang said: "The scene in front of me reminds me of an old thing, when I was ...... by Li Your Xuansheng gave it to Taiyun, and left the Central Plains with Taiyun, and when he passed through a Gobi in the Western Regions, he found a big lake, which happened to be fifteen that day, and he didn't know what illness he was doing, so he had to take me to the lake to enjoy the moon. I guess it may be that she is reminded of her dead ghost man, whether it is a young husband and wife, there is still affection, the full moon of fifteen is reflected on the lake, it is very clear, it is really a moon in the water."
"Then we realized that something was wrong, so we stepped on the lake and walked step by step towards the moon in the water reflected on the surface of the lake. When she stood on the moon shadow in the water, she saw a white light envelop her, and she disappeared completely."
"Later, Taiyun told me that it was actually a small cave, of course, it couldn't be compared with Kunlun Cave Heaven and Lingshan Cave Heaven, and it was much smaller than the Ghost Country Cave Heaven, which was the size of a county town, and there was only one city in it. But the city was strange, very intact, with no signs of destruction in the war, but not a single figure in sight. The moonlight sprinkled on the empty city like mercury filled in an ancient tomb. This is not the same as the Paititi we found, and it was discovered after the Taiyun walked into the city
The whole city is brand new, as if it had just been completed, and there is no trace of any human habitation, not that people have disappeared, but that there is no one at all."
Wu Niang turned back to the topic when she said this: "I think the underground lake in front of me is very similar to the big lake we encountered in the Gobi."
Qi Xuansu was aroused by curiosity, and couldn't help but ask, "What happened later?"
Wu Niang said: "Later, Tantai found that after a period of time, the traces of the residents of the city and their lives in the city seemed to be born out of thin air, and the city began to become dilapidated, so Tantai Yun concluded that there was a time loop here, but time also needs space to be meaningful, she directly used Wufu to break the void to break the space, forcibly left the cave, and then we continued to travel west."
Qi Xuansu was silent for a moment: "This ending is very boring. If the protagonist of the adventure is too strong, then the story becomes boring."
Wu Niang learned from the Westerners and spread her hands: "So I only talked about the first half, and you insisted on listening to the second half."
Qi Xuansu sighed: "You said that the underground lake in front of you is very similar to the big lake, but the clouds entered the cave through the reflection of the moon, and now we are underground, where does the moon come from?"
Wu Niang said, "Don't you have the key?"
Qi Xuansu was stunned for a moment, and then took out the key.
This so-called key is not a normal key shape, but a round one, Qi Xuansu didn't understand what it meant before, but now when he heard Wu Niang say this, he had a sense of sudden enlightenment.
There is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure.
Wu Niang's rich experience helped Qi Xuansu avoid too many detours.
If Qi Xuansu came alone, then it would be difficult for him to think that there was still such a way of thinking, and it was a ban set by the ancient gods, and he would not be able to crack it violently, and the result would probably be in vain.
Qi Xuansu handed the disc-shaped key to Wu Niang.
Wu Niang flipped the disc over: "The front side symbolizes the sun, and the back side symbolizes the moon. We saw the temple of Itsumner when we came, so let's try the sun first."
Wu Niang fiddled with the disc a few times, injecting divine power, and the entire disc lit up with golden sunlight.
Then Wu Niang threw the disc away, and saw the disc fly directly above the lake and turn into a round of scorching sun.
Under normal circumstances, the lake water cannot reflect the shadow of the sun, so Wu Niang adjusted the angle in the air to make it look like a sunset, the light weakened, and the position was skewed.
There is an extra reflection of the sun on the surface of the lake.
Qi Xuansu and Wu Niang also sensed that a portal to another world had opened.
