C1283 The Path of Immortality Is the Only Turning Point
If the Mandate of Heaven was void and above the Soul Formation stage, then what else could be outside the Ninth Heaven?
What was beyond the Ninth Heaven? It was a realm no one knew. It was a legend that had been passed down since ancient times, the so-called immortals!
In Lin Bai's mind, he had never been this panicked before, nor had he ever felt like he was living in a huge conspiracy! He did not want to believe Chen Qiling's words, but he could not not help but believe it because on the way here, he had indeed seen too many unimaginable things, and all of these things pointed to these possibilities.
The black kitten that had transformed into a ghost, the ghost that had found the cave spirit that was too old, and the medicine doll's immortal medicine that had transformed into a human form. Although these naturally nurtured spiritual objects were rarely seen, how many years had passed since the appearance of civilization? How could these spiritual objects only be an exception? Furthermore, the little black cat and the medicine doll had admitted that they had inherited memories.
Without precedent, how could there be an inheritance, and how could there be memories? And the creatures that had appeared before them, where had they gone? And what made Lin Bai feel that the path of immortality was not impossible at all? The truth was that what he had witnessed in the land of mortals did not belong to him.
Not to mention being an ancient descendant of Wuzhi Qi, but the fact that he could cultivate to the Nascent Realm was enough to shock countless people! Furthermore, all the medicinal ingredients and beasts surrounding the Mortal Parting Cavern were also extremely rare!
Most importantly, the Feng Shui layout of the Mortal Parting Cavern was more exquisite than anything Lin Bai had ever seen before. Moreover, that Feng Shui layout was not natural, but based on manpower. Even though Lin Bai had a deep understanding of the art and was very confident in himself, he still knew that with his current cultivation, it was impossible for him to do such a thing!
To be able to set up such a cave and teach Wuzhi Qi that kind of spiritual object, how could the owner of the cave be an ordinary mortal?! Lin Bai felt that the cultivation of the owner of the cave abode was definitely above the Spirit Severing stage, and from the Spirit Transformation stage to step into the next realm, what realm would it be to eliminate Immortal Ascension?!
"You can't speak anymore, right? When your master heard these things, he also had the same expression as you. I'm afraid none of you would have thought that the Sixth Ancestor would be so useless. His immortal path is only an inch away, but he doesn't dare to take even half a step further. He doesn't dare to be above all living things! " Looking at Lin Bai's expression, Chen Qiling coldly laughed as he asked, "How is it, have you fallen for her?"
"Why is there no record of it?" Why didn't any news pass down? " Not answering Chen Qiling's question, Lin Bai continued to pour out the questions in his heart one after another. He knew that at this point in time, Chen Qiling would definitely not hide anything.
"Why aren't there any records of legacies? That's because the path of Immortality has been severed!" Chen Qiling sneered and said slowly, "Because those people are too high up in the sky. They don't want anyone else to be among them! Unfortunately, the Sixth Ancestral Master had once had a chance to re-establish his path to Immortality. However, he wasn't willing to seize this opportunity, and only feared moving forward.
"The opportunity that you said the Sixth Ancestral Master seized, the opportunity that he had, was the Hutu book in my hands?" After a moment of silence, Lin Bai slowly raised his hand, summoned out the River Diagram Book, and placed it in his hand as he spoke slowly.
"That's right, this is the only way to reach the Immortal Path!" As he looked at the changing black and white colors of the Atlas book, the light in Chen Qiling's eyes became increasingly hot. His hands could not help but tremble as if he wanted to hold the book in his hands, "According to what the Sixth Ancestor said, this is the only seed left in the mortal world when the Immortal Path is cut!"
Lin Bai was speechless. At this moment, he finally understood why the He Tu Luo book was so magical, why there was also a massive amount of magic in it, and why it could even absorb Baleful Yin Force and Qi and have such a heaven-defying effect! It was because this was a seed, a sole seed. It was precisely because it was such a crucial seed that it could be so magical!
"The Sixth Ancestral Master did not dare to do it. Your master did not dare to do it, but I am different and you are also different! Now that you have such great assistance, as long as us uncle and nephew join hands, you will definitely be able to resume the path of immortality! " A divine light flickered in Chen Qiling's eyes as he said in an incomparably fervent tone, "Lin Bai, think carefully. What a carefree and unrestrained existence it must be to rise above the mundane world!"
The mountain was completely silent. The only sound that could be heard was Chen Qiling's bewitching voice.
"Martial Uncle, you've gone mad." A long while later, Lin Bai slowly spoke. He bitterly laughed as he looked at Chen Qiling, "You don't know the sixth generation ancestor, and you don't know me either." You want to walk on that road, but we don't want to walk on it.
At this moment, Lin Bai understood more than ever why the sixth generation Patriarch was so cautious and cautious. He was even willing to cut off his own legacy to prevent it from being recorded in the Celestial Sect of Wonders. The reason was simple. He didn't want to use this chance to continue down the Immortal Path, because he didn't know what was at the end of it!
There were good and evil in the mundane world, and there were good and evil in the strange sects as well. Who could guarantee that there would only be righteousness on the other side of the path of Immortality? There was no evil. As a Deity Stage Master, he was already so powerful! There was no need to even mention how powerful the people on the other side of the path of Immortality were!
If, even if it was just if, there was a strong, evil Immortal on the other side of the path of Immortals! After the Immortal Path was rebuilt, everything in this world would be destroyed.
One must know that in the face of such a powerful existence, how could these people resist?! In the eyes of those people who were already used to being above everything else, what difference was there between these people and those ants whose fates were already under the control of others?
The 6th generation Patriarch Liu Bowen could not bear the responsibility of the collapse of all things, and neither could he, Lin Bai! Even if the Immortal Path was boundless and was the lifelong pursuit of countless number of grandmasters, he had to bury this secret deep within his heart and never say a single word!
The reason why he still wanted to leave behind this paragraph of records was because he did not want his life's history to leave behind no ripples at all. It was also because he wanted the later generation of Heaven Sect to see the contents of this note after they found it and continue his unfulfilled mission, allowing this secret to continue to be sealed away.
"You don't want to walk this path, you don't want to walk this path, why are you doing so much?" After a long while, he suddenly revealed a mocking smile. He stared at Lin Bai and said with a sneer, "Don't tell me that you think that the Dragon Bureau, which was set up by the Sixth Ancestor, only has the effect of holding back those unconventional things that are related to the descendants of Zhao Song!"
"What did you say?!" Upon hearing these words, Lin Bai's heart suddenly skipped a beat and his eyes widened involuntarily.
"The Eight Lock Dragon Bureau doesn't just lock in the destiny of China, they also don't just cut off the connection between the dragon veins! Its more important function is to cut off the connection between this world and the Immortal Path, so that no one in the world will ever be able to sense its existence! " Chen Qiling burst out laughing as he ridiculed, "I thought you wanted to walk that path, which was why you broke through the eight locks and released the accumulated luck of the dragon. So it turns out that you don't know anything and don't know anything …"
Listening to Chen Qiling's mocking words and seeing his mocking expression, Lin Bai's heart was filled with bitterness. Back when he was cleaning up the Dragon division, he did feel that there was something hidden behind the eight locks, but based on his cultivation back then, he couldn't figure it out at all. He didn't expect the eight locks to have an effect that could cut off the path of immortality and tie it up with the mortal world.
It was fortunate that he had decided to be happy every time he cracked one of the eight Dragon Guards. He hadn't thought that he would completely wipe out the plan the sixth generation ancestor painstakingly put in place in this world, allowing everything to reappear in the light of day.
But what Lin Bai understood even more was that the situation at that time was extremely grim. The Dragon Chief of the Eight Gates was completely in the hands of Zhao Song's descendants! If he did not do so, even if he could continue to guarantee the relationship between the Dragon Guards and the mortal world, it would cause all the other Chinese students to be in despair. Even the flying flames of war would reignite in this land.
Furthermore, with the passing of time, the Dragon of Eight Lock became a shackle for China to soar into the sky. In that situation, Lin Bai had chosen to touch the Eight Lock Dragon Head. It was a choice he had no choice but to make. It was also a decision he had to make.
He was only upset about one thing, and that was that he did not receive the information earlier. Otherwise, he would have made preparations long ago, expended all of his energy to perfect the Eight Lock Dragon Divisions. While releasing his dragon luck, he would be able to cut off the connection between the Immortal Path and the mortal world, and use all of his strength to wipe out the possibility of the Immortal Path being reborn.
But Lin Bai also knew that with his current level of cultivation at that time, with the circumstances at that time … Even if they knew about this secret, they wouldn't be able to change anything. They wouldn't be able to find any ways to improve it. At most, they would just continue to make the same choice while being conflicted.
"Ridiculous, truly laughable! I originally thought that you were different from my senior brother Wood and that's why I did all these things. Now, it seems that you two, Master and disciple, are extremely similar! " Chen Qiling sneered repeatedly as he stared at Lin Bai and said:
"The eight locks have already opened. Even if the mortal world and the immortal path have yet to sense it, others will definitely discover it in the future! Rather than letting those people do these things and let them snatch the secret treasures in our hands, they would be above us in the end. Why can't it be our Celestial Sect's people who made the first move in advance to take control of everything?! "
"I can take a step back and continue to respect you! If you walk on the path of Immortality, I will be an existence that is beneath you, or perhaps beneath your loved ones. I will make this entire world prostrate at my feet. "Lin Bai, are you satisfied?"
The crazed look on Chen Qi's face deepened as he stared at Lin Bai, trying his best to bewitch Lin Bai with his words, hoping that Lin Bai would accept his condition, resume his immortal path, and walk out of the long cut off path.
