Chapter 219 The Secret of Dao Fruit

Lu Yang was shocked when he heard this. When he was experiencing the [Rules of Buyi Town], he had heard Taoist Buyu talk about the [Rules].

In the fusion stage, one can initially control the rules; in the tribulation stage, one can control the rules on a larger scale; and the immortals use the power of the Tao fruit to control the rules of the entire world.

But he really didn't expect that Daoguo could even create the rules of [Reincarnation].

If there really is an immortal who created the rules of reincarnation, would he have created other rules?

How many of the things that seem commonplace now were not there in ancient times and were created later?

Why did the ancient nameless person refine the stars into continents? What was his purpose? Was it also a manifestation of some kind of rules, or was it to create some kind of rules? Lu Yang looked up at the bright sun in the sky. The sun was the moon, which was impossible in Lu Yang's previous life.

The sun, a star that people regard as the source of life and power, may also be the embodiment of certain rules.

Lu Yang threw all the questions to the Immortal Fairy. The Immortal Fairy obviously couldn't handle such complicated questions and felt dizzy.

"Anyway, from what I have seen and heard since my resurrection, there is not much difference between now and the ancient times. At most, the stars refined into continents count as one, and the sun counts as another."

"You happened to ask about Daoguo, so I'll tell you about it."

"But the immortal fruit is too far away for you. Knowing too much now will be detrimental to your future cultivation. I can only tell you a little. If it were that little girl Yunzhi, I could tell her a lot about the fruit... Oh, she doesn't seem to need me to tell her about this."

The Immortal Fairy stretched out two fingers and told Lu Yang about the knowledge of Dao Fruit by counting them: "Dao Fruit can be divided into two types according to the different rules of control."

"The first is the Time Dao Fruit of the Time Fairy, which controls the rules of time. The rules of time exist objectively and originally existed. The function of the Time Dao Fruit is to master the existing rules and change them according to one's own wishes. As for the extent of the changes, only the Time Fairy himself knows."

"The second is my Immortal Dao Fruit, which controls the Immortal Rules. The Immortal Rules are rules I created, and they have never existed before. The Immortal Rules only work on me... Oh, no... Bu Yaolian is one of them, too. That is, the Immortal Rules work on both Bu Yaolian and me, but the effect on him is far less than on me."

"Bu Yaolian's Immortal Dao Fruit Prototype can only allow him to appear on any statue. It is the most basic immortal rule, used to escape. If he dies, he cannot be resurrected."

"I am different." Speaking of herself, the Immortal Fairy grinned, appearing very confident.

"As long as you say my name, I can be resurrected regardless of time, place, or language! Ying Tianxian and the other four are very envious of my ability!"

"What a pity, they are not capable enough to produce the immortal fruit." The Immortal Fairy was complacent. As the self-proclaimed leader of the Five Ancient Immortals, there must be some truth in her claim.

Lu Yang suspected that the Immortal Fairy ate the food he cooked, and had a sudden enlightenment at the moment of death, realized the true meaning of immortality, and produced the immortal fruit. However, after producing the fruit, the bad memories were automatically deleted.

"There is also Ying Tianxian. His Dao Fruit also created a kind of rule out of thin air, namely the [Ying Jie] rule."

"Rules for responding to the disaster?"

"The most common manifestation is the thunder tribulation. You see, from the Nascent Soul to the Spiritualization, and from the Spiritualization to the Void Refining, one needs to go through the thunder tribulation. This is the situation you are experiencing now. In ancient times, cultivators did not need to go through the thunder tribulation when they practiced."

"Ying Tianxian believes that when people practice cultivation, they only pursue the level of strength and the speed of cultivation, ignoring their state of mind and losing the original meaning of cultivation. Therefore, he created the Dao Fruit of [Ying Jie] to add another test for those who practice cultivation."

"The facts have proved that Ying Tianxian's decision was correct. With the appearance of the thunder tribulation, the cultivators began to pay more attention to their state of mind and worked hard to deal with it. They will no longer easily fall into the state of mind."

"The fruit of the calamity-responsible path is a typical example of pushing rules to the whole world, adding another rule for everyone."

"So you know? If someone becomes an immortal after I die, and produces the fruit of the [Reincarnation] Dao, it would be the same as the situation for me and Ying Tianxian, creating a rule out of thin air."

"I just don't know whether this [Reincarnation Rule] applies to specific people or to everyone."

The Immortal Fairy further explained: "It works on certain people. Generally speaking, the holder of the embryonic form of the fruit of reincarnation can reincarnate continuously, thus achieving another kind of eternal life."

"It affects everyone, which means that everyone has their own past life, including you, Meng Jingzhou, Man Gu, Tao Yaoye, etc. But I think this possibility is not high."

"Why?" Lu Yang asked.

"Think about it, since everyone is reincarnating, doesn't that mean the total number of souls in the world is fixed?"

Lu Yang nodded.

"Then have you ever thought about how souls appeared in ancient times, when there were no rules of reincarnation?"

Lu Yang was shocked. He had never thought about this kind of question.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

The Immortal Fairy continued, "In ancient times, when a fetus was gestating in the womb, it would automatically absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and the essence of heaven and earth would gather together to form the soul. The essence of heaven and earth is invisible, intangible, insensible, and undetectable."

"Where the soul comes from has always been a mystery. After the five of us became immortals, we worked together to deduce and found that there is a substance in the world that has never been discovered before, called essence. Essence is the source of the soul."

"The birth of the soul can be regarded as a kind of rule. Let's call it the soul rule."

"If the rules of reincarnation apply to everyone, then they will inevitably conflict with the rules of the soul. The rules of creation and the original rules will inevitably conflict, which is a taboo in condensing the Dao fruit."

"If the immortal who controls the fruit of reincarnation is not stupid, this kind of thing will not happen."

After listening to the Immortal Fairy's introduction, Lu Yang thought of a question: "Fairy, can your Immortal Rules cover everyone?"

If the rules of immortality can cover everyone, it means that everyone will be immortal.

This is a huge temptation that people in the world cannot resist.

The Immortal Fairy denied Lu Yang's idea: "I had this idea when I first condensed the Immortal Dao Fruit. At that time, I thought that everyone was fighting hard to improve their realm and snatch resources. Isn't it just for becoming an immortal and for immortality?"

"If I grant everyone immortality, won't the world be peaceful?"

"After I told Ying Tianxian and the others about this idea, they reacted strongly and jointly stopped me from having such an idea, saying that I couldn't have such an idea."
