Chapter 960: Eternal Supreme Lord
"The first cultivator to be infected with the Immortal Mortal Miasma is also the one who created it."
…
Li Fan's voice echoed faintly.
Master Yin did not refute, but just grabbed his hair tightly, seeming to be very painful about this fact.
"How is this possible, how is this possible..." He kept muttering, looking confused and sad.
After a long silence, Li Fan continued to speak slowly: "The miasma of immortals and mortals is caused by going against the principles of heaven and earth."
"The one who can create immortal and mortal miasma..."
"Only the Immortal Lord! In other words, what we have before us are the remains of a new immortal."
"At the moment when the immortal-mortal miasma was born in his body, according to the rules set by the new law of the Heavenly Lord, he was able to achieve immortality. But at the same time..."
"The rule power called Immortal Mortal Miasma began to wreak havoc and destroy his body."
"Even a mortal can kill an immortal. Everyone in Xuanhuang Realm knows the power of the immortal-mortal miasma. But I believe that if that Immortal Heavenly Venerable wanted to save his own life, he could have done it. But he chose not to do so."
"Because once he does this, it means that he has destroyed the rules he created. Although it will not lead to failure against reason..."
Li Fan paused, as if he was thinking and deducing.
After a moment, he said in a loud voice: "But it is very likely that there is a loophole: Changsheng Tianzun can ignore the power of immortal and mortal miasma."
"In order to prevent this from happening, he allowed the immortal miasma to devour him. This was equivalent to burying himself with his own hands..."
"What we got was only one conclusion: Xuanhuang cultivators, regardless of their cultivation level, from Qi Refiners to Immortal Celestial Venerables, all could not escape the effects of the Immortal Mortal Miasma."
Li Fan looked solemn: "But..."
"What on earth does this mean?"
"In just a few thousand years, the immortal-mortal miasma has been in name only. As long as we are careful in dealing with it, can't the cultivators still slaughter mortals at will?"
"And what exactly is the purpose of this Immortal Heavenly Venerable? He is willing to sacrifice his own life to create the Immortal Mortal Miasma?"
A deep look of doubt emerged on Li Fan's face.
This is not a disguise, but comes from the heart.
Master Yin remained silent.
He waved his hand gently, and the transparent wall in front of him disappeared. He carefully picked up the white rib on the ground, and gently stroked it as if it were a rare treasure.
"When I first saw this rib, I seemed to see the image of its owner in his lifetime."
"What a perfect face it is! All the gorgeous words in the world combined cannot even describe it."
"However, such a perfect person died because of being infected by the Immortal Mortal Miasma. At that time, I secretly swore in my heart that I must find the culprit who created the Immortal Mortal Miasma and caused the death of this perfect person, and then..."
Master Yin laughed bitterly: "I never thought that after searching for so many years, the so-called murderer would be right in front of me all along."
“And I never knew, never knew!”
His mind was greatly touched, and Master Yin suddenly coughed up a large amount of blood.
After wiping it gently, Master Yin grasped the rib tightly, with veins bulging on his hands.
As Li Fan watched this scene, the scene of his first meeting with Master Yin suddenly emerged in his mind.
Just like now, with shabby clothes.
He kept whispering to himself, "I must find you, I must find you..."
And now, he finally found the so-called murderer.
But this result was not something he could easily accept.
After searching for most of my life, I found out that the so-called murderer was the victim himself.
What an irony.
"No wonder every time, he committed suicide by burning himself to death not long after finding the truth." Li Fan was silent.
Li Fan suddenly remembered that in his previous life, Su Changyu came to this Yinyin Island by chance and was taught [my foundation-building method].
The reason why Master Yin did this was because of Su Changyu's attempt to save the mortals on the island.
At that time, Master Yin once asked, "Why? Why would you, a cultivator, save these mortals?"
Now it seems that he is probably not just simply questioning Su Changyu.
What is more, people are puzzled about the actions of the Eternal Heavenly Venerable who created the miasma between immortals and mortals.
Not only Master Yin, Li Fan also couldn't understand this behavior at all.
Even if there is someone in the world who is so noble that he is willing to sacrifice his life to protect ordinary people...
But at least it has to be effective and the sacrifice has to be meaningful, right?
Judging from the current situation of the Xuanhuang Realm, the situation of mortals has only improved a little. They are still slaughtered at will by immortal cultivators and cannot protect themselves.
Just like Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi back then.
A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage can easily raze a mortal city to the ground.
Compared to before the birth of the immortal and mortal miasma, everything seems to be no different at all.
If that's all he wanted...
Then it is not noble, but stupid.
Li Fan believed that there was no way there could be a cultivator who could go against the laws of heaven and earth.
So what is his real purpose?
While Li Fan was thinking, Master Yin staggered to his feet, placed the white rib on his chest and carefully put it away.
After thinking about it, Li Fan raised the questions in his mind.
Master Yin smiled miserably: "Fellow Daoist, haven't you figured it out yet? He is not only doing this for the mortals of the world, but also for the cultivators of the world."
"The cultivators of the world?" Li Fan's body trembled, as if he thought of something.
"After the Dharma-Transmitting Heavenly Venerable went against the laws of heaven and earth and created a new Dharma, all cultivators in the world must practice according to the new Dharma. Theoretically speaking, from now on, no matter how brilliant or talented the cultivators are, they will never be able to jump out of the framework set by the Dharma-Transmitting Heavenly Venerable."
"It is destined to be suppressed forever by Chuan Fa. In a sense, for the cultivators of Xuan Huang Realm, Chuan Fa is an invincible existence." Master Yin seemed to be in a bit of a bad mental state, and spoke intermittently.
And a scene suddenly appeared in front of Li Fan's eyes.
A figure in white looked up to the sky and sighed: "There is a road to immortality ahead that cannot be stepped on. The Heavenly Master of Dharma is above!"
“However, he, at the cost of his own life, created a possibility for the Xuanhuang cultivator. A possibility that could threaten the transmission of the Dharma.” Master Yin was stunned for a moment before continuing.
"Both are immortal celestial masters, although their strength and combat power may be much higher. But their status is actually the same. Since the immortal miasma can cause fatal damage to him, the same logic applies..."
“The miasma from immortals and mortals can also seriously injure or even kill the Heavenly Venerable who preaches the Dharma!” Master Yin’s voice suddenly rose a little for no apparent reason, and he seemed a little excited.
"Since the catastrophe, Chuan Fa Tian Zun has almost disappeared from the world. Even after he re-established the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, he rarely showed up. How do we know there is no factor from this aspect? Because he is afraid too! Haha!"
Master Yin's demeanor gradually became a little crazy.
"He not only found a way for the cultivators of the world to kill the Chuan Fa, but also pointed out a way to completely defeat the Chuan Fa! After all, just relying on the immortal and mortal miasma, he wanted to kill the Chuan Fa Tianzun..."
"Although it is possible, the probability of success is too low."
"But the method he pointed out to defeat the order of the Dharma transmission is absolutely feasible!" Master Yin was shocked again and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Since the immortal-mortal miasma can be a flaw in the transmission of the law, why can't we create more flaws? As long as there are strong people who can achieve the realm of immortality and are willing to sacrifice themselves..."
"The flaws in the teachings will inevitably increase. One day, they will be broken with just one poke!"
Master Yin’s eyes widened.
"As long as there is someone like him who is willing to sacrifice himself..."
Li Fan remained silent after hearing this.
I wish everyone in the world would have this kind of awareness...
It's really a bit too much to ask.
One is the freedom of longevity, the other is to risk one's life for the illusory possibility of the future...
Any normal person would know what to choose.
But he is not an ordinary person.
Master Yin laughed bitterly: "In thousands of years of Xuanhuang, there has not been another cultivator who has done this."
"It's really damnable! Damn it all..."
Li Fan comforted him, "Fellow Daoist Yin, don't be too extreme."
Master Yin ignored Li Fan completely, and even looked at him with hostility: "What do you know?"
He took out the white rib from his arms and said with disdain, "I know that all cultivators in the world cherish their lives. How many people embark on the path of cultivation just because they are afraid of death?"
"But how can your lives be compared with his?"
“He…he…”
There was a trace of blood flowing out of Master Yin's eyes: "He is the Immortal Heavenly Lord!"
These words were like a bolt of thunder, striking Li Fan's soul.
With his shrewdness, he couldn't help but wonder, "What?"
"He is the Immortal Heavenly Lord? What does this mean?"
Li Fan asked quickly.
"What do you mean? It means literally. Before the ancient method disappeared, the last person who obtained the power of immortality from heaven and earth and achieved immortality was [Changsheng Tianzun]!" Master Yin said word by word.
“Only the bones of the Ancient Heavenly Lord can be like this, as if created by heaven and earth…”
Master Yin said this while stroking the rib obsessively.
Then his eyes suddenly became sinister and stared at Li Fan.
After a moment of stalemate, Master Yin suddenly looked up at the sky again, his eyes filled with doubt and confusion.
At the same time, he muttered to himself: "Besides, he is different from those thieves. His immortality was given to him by this world."
"He could have just left here..."
Li Fan did not disturb him, but silently recorded everything Master Yin said.
"Ancient immortality? And it's a different kind of immortality."
“No wonder he is so invincible whether in the Beast Taming Sect or the Heavenly Sword Sect.”
"But how did he achieve immortality?"
"Or maybe, when he ascended to heaven in one step, he was not just transformed from a mortal to a god."
"But in one breath, he transformed from a mortal into the Immortal Celestial Lord?"
Li Fan couldn't help but feel that it was a bit absurd.
This kind of progress is unprecedented and will never be repeated!
"If this is true, it is too outrageous."
"No matter how favored he is by Heaven, he should not be treated like this."
"He's not a favored child of heaven, he's treated like his own father."
"Could it be that he saved the Xuanhuang Realm in his previous life..."
Thinking of this, a thought suddenly popped up in Li Fan's mind.
He was slightly stunned.
"No... maybe?"
I quickly sorted out my thoughts, but the guesses in my mind became clearer and clearer.
Also a perfect person.
I also care about all living beings in the universe.
King Xuantian disappeared inexplicably.
Several years later, another mortal was born into the world.
The treatment he received was outrageous, as he was favored by heaven.
All of these things are connected together to form an answer.
Li Fan couldn't help but think: "Could it be..."
"Mr. Bai is the reincarnation of King Xuantian?"
That’s right, the appearance of the restored skull that Li Fan saw was exactly the same as Mr. Bai’s.
The reason why it is said in the world that the first cultivator infected with the Immortal Mortal Miasma was named Su...
That’s because…
Li Fan couldn't help but think of the scene he saw in the Meteorite Fairyland that year.
"The dog was just a discarded defective product. If it wasn't for Xiaobai..."
As the yellow-haired Lu Ya was explaining for Li Fan, he was kicked hard from behind.
Then he patted his butt, looking a little embarrassed.
Lu Ya quickly changed his words and said, "If it weren't for [Mr. Bai] treating him, I'm afraid the dog would have died a long time ago."
…
That’s right, the reason why Mr. Bai is called Mr. Bai is that the orphans in Ningyuan City gave him a respectful title after hearing the name "Xiaobai".
Maybe they don't know the real name of the best person in the world.
Given Mr. Bai's personality, even if he knew that this was a misunderstanding on the part of the children, he would most likely not stop or correct it.
As long as the children are happy.
After all, Mr. Bai is a nice name.
"Su Bai..."
"Is that his name?"
"Use the old method to achieve immortality, go against the principles of heaven and earth, and then achieve immortality with the new method."
"I thought no one in the world could do this, but I didn't expect..."
Li Fan recalled the conversation between Sun Qi and Sun Liancheng that he had heard before.
"The more favored you are by heaven and earth, the harder it will be to go against the laws of heaven and earth."
"The more backlash you suffer, the deeper the damage."
"In this situation, he can go against the laws of heaven and earth..."
Li Fan couldn't help but become more silent.
My thoughts were churning and I didn’t know how much time had passed.
The abnormality in front of him brought Li Fan back to reality.
There was a strange energy fluctuation emanating from Master Yin.
Li Fan also noticed that Master Yin's condition was very abnormal at this time.
It seems like it could go haywire at any time.
But in this state, he seemed to be able to peek into the many mysteries of heaven and earth, and find out the past and present life of the owner of the rib.
"Why? Why?"
Master Yin grabbed his head in pain, and a vertical line slowly appeared in the middle of his body.
It seemed as if it would break apart at any moment.
Li Fan quietly moved away a little.
Master Yin rolled on the ground in pain, and Li Fan faintly heard explosions coming from the secret room under Yin Yin Island where countless corpses of Master Yin were placed.
There were constant vibrations and humming sounds.
I don't know how much time passed, but Master Yin suddenly jumped up, his face full of excitement: "I know!"
