Chapter 198 Leniency for Confession
"No, I mean my name is Bu Yaolian, Bu as in cloth, and Shame as in shameless." The immortal immortal was beaten into being honest. He answered every question with a very good attitude.
The Immortal Fairy frowned: "Why is it such a strange name?"
Lu Yang thought, what qualifications do you have to say that someone's name is weird? The Immortal Immortal sighed, "I don't want to be called that either. It's a long story to explain this."
"Take your time to speak." The Immortal Fairy conjured up a small stool, sat on it, and rested her head on her hands, wanting to listen to what the Immortal Immortal had to say.
Yunzhi and Lu Yang were also listening quietly.
The Immortal Immortal said truthfully: "I don't know where my consciousness came from, nor do I know how I was born. A long time ago, I had my first consciousness, which was very faint. I could only vaguely perceive my own situation, like seeing flowers in the fog, and it was not very clear."
"I felt a force coming from nowhere and gathering on me, making me stronger little by little, but my consciousness was still hazy and blurred, and I couldn't tell what was happening in the outside world."
"I can still feel that many memories are filling my consciousness, but I didn't have the ability to think at that time. I just accepted the memories blindly and couldn't organize and process these huge memories."
"My consciousness gradually became stronger, and a faint voice sounded beside my consciousness, calling out 'Immortal Immortal'."
"I have the word 'Immortal Immortal' in my memory, but I still can't process the memory and don't know what 'Immortal Immortal' is."
"I don't know how long it took, maybe hundreds of years, maybe thousands of years, but my consciousness suddenly became clear, like a drowning person being fished out and regaining my sense of the outside world."
"And the first words I heard after I regained consciousness were: Great Immortal Immortal Bu Yaolian, please save your devout believers and save this world."
"'Bu Yao Lian' became my name. I didn't have a name originally. It was only when the leader called me 'Bu Yao Lian' that I got a name."
"As I gained a name, I was finally able to process the vast amount of memories I had before and understand what they meant."
"In my memory, I saw someone accidentally discover the secret realm and enter it by mistake. He learned that in ancient times there was an immortal who protected the human race. His name was the Immortal Immortal. The Immortal Immortal possessed the Immortal Dao Fruit and could be resurrected from the dead. After that person left the secret realm, he founded the Immortal Religion and tried to revive the Immortal Immortal."
"The Immortal Cult has grown stronger, and more and more believers have joined the Cult, using killing to please the Immortal Immortal, calling out the Immortal's real name, and reviving the Immortal."
"At that time, I understood that I was the immortal immortal resurrected by the Immortal Religion. As long as someone truly believed in me, prayed to me, and worshipped me, I would gain his memory."
"The leader prayed to me, and I appeared in the world through the statue to respond to the leader's expectations."
"I have the leader's memories. I know everything the leader knows. I saw that he was seriously injured and needed a hundred years of rest. Considering that he is my most devout and powerful believer, I treated him."
"As I gained the name, I could feel that I was in control of a ball of golden light. Combined with my memories, I guessed that this was the Immortal Dao Fruit."
"I used part of the power of the Immortal Dao Fruit to heal the leader."
"But I don't know if I am truly an immortal. My earliest memory comes from the first believer, which was more than 10,000 years ago. I don't have any memory of the ancient times."
“For example, the leader asked me who refined the stars in the sky. I couldn’t answer this question, but I couldn’t say I didn’t know, so I told him that this matter was very high-level and he couldn’t know it.”
"I'm not sure how the believers will react if they know my condition. I can only pretend to be revived from the long ancient times."
"And I have been in the spirit state the whole time. This is definitely not going to work in the long run, so I told the leader that I want to take over another body, return to the top, and save the world."
"The leader believed me and summoned all the people in the Qi training stage and foundation building stage to hold a competition. I will select the right person to possess from them."
"And then you chose me?" Lu Yang asked.
The immortal immortal nodded helplessly and said, "That's right. I couldn't have chosen anyone else at the beginning. It was just that my eyesight was not good, so I chose you and got beaten up."
If I change someone else, I will succeed in taking over their body.
What the immortal immortal said explained some questions, such as why he didn't use ancient moves, why he wanted to possess another's body, and why he called Bu Yaolian.
But there are some questions that even he himself cannot explain clearly.
For example, who is he? Where did he come from? How did the Immortal Dao Fruit appear? Lu Yang looked at the senior sister and the Immortal Fairy with expectation. At this time, the experienced seniors were needed to take action.
The immortal fairy frowned slightly, and it was unknown what she was thinking about. She didn't look very reliable.
The eldest sister listened quietly to the immortal immortal's experiences from beginning to end, trying to figure out whether these experiences were true or made up by him.
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
The senior sister believes that the general experience should be true.
She noticed Lu Yang's gaze and knew that this junior brother still had many questions and hoped to get answers from her. She said, "The Grand Elder Daoyan of Tiance Sect once proposed a hypothesis, saying that there are no immortal immortals or immortal fruits in the world. The Immortal Sect is creating immortals."
Lu Yang nodded secretly, the old senior was indeed very reliable.
When the Immortal Fairy heard Yunzhi's words, she looked up suddenly. She wondered where did Master Daoyan come from and how he dared to question the non-existence of this fairy's Tao fruit.
Do you know how much effort this fairy has put in to produce the Dao fruit? Ying Tianxian and the other four are very envious! Lu Yang suggested that the Immortal Fairy listen to the eldest sister first, and then find Daoyan Master to settle the account afterwards.
Yunzhi continued, "Where does the soul come from and where does it go? This is a difficult question that the immortal cultivation world has been unable to explain so far. Master Daoyan believes that human thoughts are a kind of power. As long as a person's thoughts are numerous and strong enough, a soul may appear."
"Of course, this is a hypothesis and it doesn't explain how the first soul came into being, but your situation fits the profile of this hypothesis."
"It has been 14,000 years since the Immortal Church was founded. During these 14,000 years, at least millions of believers have prayed to the non-existent Immortal Immortal. With such a long time and a huge amount of thoughts, it is entirely possible that a soul has been created, that is, you, the Immortal Immortal."
"But your appearance may add another condition - killing someone."
"Have you ever thought about where the resentful evil energy you just exerted came from?"
"Humans are the most powerful creatures in the universe and are the darlings of heaven and earth. They possess 'spirituality' from birth. The way that demon cultivators do this is to strip away people's 'spirituality' through killing and turn it into their own power."
"The believers killed to please you, causing endless killing karma. The power gained from killing became your power, the power for the Tribulation Period."
