Taking a deep breath, Zi Yi's eyes calmed down, and she gestured for Xiang Wan to come in and talk.
Xiang Wan made sure he did not do anything wrong before stepping inside.
As soon as she went in, the door slammed shut behind her.
Xiang Wan didn't dare to get too close. She stopped two zhang away from him and respectfully cupped her hands, saying, "Master, have you ever seen a god? Or, have any of the people you've met ever told you that they've seen the true face of a god?"
The woman in purple's eyes flickered slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "Why do you ask about this?"
"Master, the jade slip says that the immortals fell overnight, without any prior warning. You experienced that war, and since then, no one has become an immortal. You also said that spiritual energy is gradually decreasing, making cultivation increasingly difficult. I think there are no disputes in the world without a reason, nor is there any reason for spiritual energy to disappear for no reason. In my opinion, although life and death are predetermined, their total amount will inevitably remain at a certain level."
Imagine a fishpond. A relatively stable number of fish, aquatic plants, and aquatic insects is necessary to maintain ecological balance. But if someone catches the fish or reduces the amount of aquatic plants, you can imagine that the number of aquatic insects will increase in the short term, but then decrease. This is because without fish to eat the insects, they multiply too much, consume all the aquatic plants, and eventually starve to death.
If we compare our world to a pond, and immortals to fish in that pond, then who is the factor that causes change?
Immortals are blessed with extraordinary abilities, absorbing vast amounts of spiritual energy from heaven and earth. After their death, this spiritual energy returns to their original state, and its quantity is certainly not small. But you are well aware of the current situation.
The disappearance of one substance inevitably leads to the creation of another.
Before the immortal died, a monster appeared in the world. Where did it come from, and why did it appear?
When the spiritual energy dissipates, another kind of substance will appear. What is it?
The ruins of the miracles tell the world that someone has become a god, but who is he (or she)?
Immortals are revered for their strength and are immortal; what about gods?
Zi Yi stared intently at Xiang Wan, as if she had never known her before.
Living in this world, God is the ultimate faith in their hearts. Who would doubt God for no reason?
But upon closer reflection on the events that have occurred over the past tens of thousands of years, some things that he dared not and did not want to believe, seem to make sense if we apply Xiang Wan's perspective.
But why?
The woman in purple's expression gradually turned serious. Suddenly, her face turned pale, and she waved her hand to push Xiang Wan out the door, then tightly closed the door behind her.
Xiang Wan listened intently and seemed to hear the sound of him spitting blood. She immediately frowned and said, "How could this be? I was just thinking about it, but as someone with the appearance of an immortal, he actually vomited blood. Will it affect his lifespan?"
She raised her hand, placed it on the door, and then withdrew it.
Perhaps, this is the constraint that the world places on immortals!
She couldn't continue any longer. If Ziyi's cultivation level regressed or she even died because of this, it would be a huge loss.
This was the strongest backer in the world that she had finally obtained, and she absolutely could not allow him to suffer any mishap.
"Master, I was presumptuous. I spoke nonsense just now, please don't take it to heart. From now on, I will concentrate on my cultivation and will not bother you again. Master, please take care!"
Xiang Wan bowed respectfully to the main entrance, then turned and went back inside.
The woman in purple raised her hand, touched the bloodstains at the corner of her mouth, and stared at them for a long time.
This is the first time he has coughed up blood since becoming an immortal, after so many years.
He would rather believe that he was so angry with his apprentice Xiang Wan that he coughed up blood than believe that it was caused by that problem.
Becoming a god was his only wish in this life.
If this wish is cut short, he really doesn't know how he will go on.
Never mind, let's just take it as a joke.
He wants to become a god!
He will become the world's only myth!
With her eyes slightly closed, Zi Yi cleared her mind of all distractions and began to gather her immortal power once again to repair the restrictions in the forbidden area.
Huaxi Mountain.
Luoyan Peak.
Several female disciples, each carrying a different magical artifact, walked through the lush, flower-filled mountain forest.
"Senior sister, where did that thing go? It couldn't have gotten out of here in such a short time."
"Don't be impatient. There are restrictions left by our master here. It can't escape. Let's search slowly. We'll dig three feet into the ground and eventually find it."
"If we catch it, we'll skin it alive to vent our hatred!"
"Shh, there seems to be some noise over there, let's go check it out."
Everyone flew close to the ground, each carrying a bundle of ropes.
At this moment, a round creature covered in pale red fur peered out through the grass with its two small eyes. Seeing the crowd gathering around, it suddenly disappeared into a wisp of green smoke with a "pop".
So this is the long-lost red ball.
"It's run away again! Chase it!"
Several figures sped away. The red ball, in its panic, didn't know where to go. It spotted a hole and crawled inside, rolling and tumbling deeper into the winding cave.
"Did you hear anything?"
A female disciple stopped in a secluded spot and beckoned the other disciples to come closer.
The sounds were very soft, like "whoosh," "whoosh," and "gurgle."
If you don't listen carefully, you might miss it.
"It's in here!"
"Dig it open!"
The group used their magical artifacts to quickly dig a large hole.
The red ball desperately tried to squeeze downwards, and finally, just as it was about to be struck by the magical artifact, it slipped into a small round hole on the side. Unexpectedly, it found the hole empty! The red ball, caught off guard, fell through.
