Chapter 477 The Immortal
Damn it, why did Luo Qingqing appear here! ?
Baizhan punched the ground, biting his mouth and bleeding.
The peripheral Taoist priests were not aware of what happened in the ruins that day. The only ones who knew the inside story were Ning Qianshi, Wei Huang and Du Yelong. Now Wei Huang was severely injured and unable to ask questions. The other two were imprisoned separately by himself to ensure that they would not contact others privately. Then he pushed all the problems onto the dead Fei Nian, saying that it was the evil forces that were secretly messing up the situation, which could make the remaining Taoist priests reluctantly believe this result.
He didn't care what would happen in the future. What mattered in snatching the Tianshu Envoy was not the status of the Seven Stars, but the power contained in the Tianshu Envoy. Therefore, the only flaw in this plan was Qian. Others could not ask about Ning Qianshi and others, but Yuyi would not believe his one-sided words and would definitely ask in person.
Ning Qianshi was coerced to say something against his will because the lives of the core members were in his hands. He could not resist and could only choose to compromise. But if Qian showed up, the situation would be completely different. With Yuyi's support, the second prince would not tell the truth, and he might even want to tear himself apart on the spot.
So Qian is the key to all this.
He kidnapped He'er because Qian was not in Huiyang City.
He chose to return alone, and he also wanted Qian to shut up completely without meeting other people.
The plan was originally going smoothly. Baizhan felt the surging power in his body for the first time, and realized that the chess game in the world had the potential for improvement. Qian, who had always been far behind, also knelt in front of him in a head-on battle.
As long as Qian died, this war was inevitable!
He could also find an opportunity to kill the Nine Heavens Thunder Envoy with a sword and remove his mental obstacles.
But Qian was rescued by the Jinxia people. Baizhan had never expected that things would turn out like this.
As long as Yuyi was alive, even if he didn't go to the battlefield, he would be the biggest threat to the plan.
He didn't expect his prestige to be the final word in the Privy Council. When no core members could speak, he had to rely on the second prince to issue orders. If Qian openly opposes him again, his plans will be in vain.
Yes, the Seven Stars Privy Council will support him, after all, those people have long been dissatisfied with the second prince and the inheritance, but what's the use?
Once the news of the sharp increase in the number of Qi Sensing people in Jinxia City spreads, even the head of the Seven Stars will not be able to touch Xia Fan at all, but will treat him as a guest of honor.
No matter how strong he is, he can't compete with the other six stars on his own.
"It seems that you are desperate." Suddenly a voice came from the inner courtyard, "Even if you get the inheritance of immortal arts, your improvement is limited after all."
Who is here! ?
He has clearly sent everyone away and specially checked the situation in the compound.
This person... saw his fight with Qian?
Baizhan's murderous intention suddenly rose. He held the dagger, looked in the direction of the voice, and then froze in place.
The person who appeared was Fei Nian!
He did not become torn into pieces, and his head was intact on his neck. However, he was no longer wearing the Taoist robe, but a black robe as thick as ink, with a few stars dotted on the corners of the robe.
In addition, his words also changed a little. It was not that his voice was different, but the pauses and wordings were different from before. This was why he could not hear who the other party was at the first time.
How could it be...
He confirmed that he had cut off the other party's head, and before leaving the ruins, he had someone set a fire to completely destroy the equipment in the cave.
Fei Nian should be dead and could not die any more!
"Who are you?" Bai Zhan felt cold sweat in his palms.
"Of course I am Fei Nian. You should be able to tell that this is not an illusion." Fei Nian walked slowly in front of him, "But I am not completely him - by the way, do you know a lot about Fei Nian? I am afraid that except for the fact that he is from Suzhou, you don't know anything else, right? So there is not much point in entangled in such questions."
"I obviously killed you..."
"Yes, you killed me, I should die." He smiled, "But what determines a person's status as a person is the consciousness composed of qi, and the body is just a collection. You destroyed the collection, why do you think that a person will definitely die? Have you forgotten what I said, when can the Privy Council represent the truth?"
This has nothing to do with the Privy Council, qi cannot be separated from the body and remain independent, and the evil spirit is the best proof - Bai Zhan just wanted to blurt out, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
The research on alchemy is far from being a great success. All the theories today are inherited from a hundred years ago, and the framework has never changed. Among them, it is natural for people to draw this conclusion by observing the evil spirit. After all, none of the evil spirits born from strong human emotions can still retain their consciousness before death, and the only mentality they show is strong hatred and hostility towards the living.
But now, a living example is in front of him.
Baizhan has also considered that Fei Nian in front of him is a creation of magic, which is more physical than illusion. But this doesn't make sense at all, because the other party obviously knows the content of the secret meeting very clearly, and there should be no one else in the world who knows it except Fei Nian himself.
Then the question is, can such a "dead person" who can clearly remember everything that happened in the past, have self-awareness and the ability to act, still be called an evil spirit?
A word came to Baizhan's mind.
"Immortality".
This is a higher level description than immortality.
When did Fei Nian have such ability?
An indescribable jealousy suddenly erupted from Bai Zhan's heart. He tried his best to suppress this fluctuating mood, "What are you doing here? Are you looking for revenge for the sword?"
"Of course not." Fei Nian shrugged, "I said, since you are willing to fight for everything, I will not let you down."
"You want me to become like you?" Bai Zhan's heart was beating. If a Taoist priest can obtain the ability of immortality, isn't it equivalent to having the opportunity to improve himself repeatedly on the edge of death? What that means is self-evident.
"It's too early for you to become like me because you lack the necessary opportunity. But I can promise that when the opportunity is ripe, you can also become an immortal existence."
"That's nice to say. I don't know what you encountered, but you want me to--"
Bai Zhan was suddenly stunned when he said this.
He saw that Fei Nian's face had changed.
When the new face appeared in front of him, Bai Zhan felt his whole body tremble slightly.
"Now... do you still have questions?" Fei Nian's tone was deep and distant, as if it came from a faraway place.
After a long time, Bai Zhan licked his dry lips and said, "How... are you going to help me?"
The latter took out two bottles filled with dark purple gas and handed them to him, "With this thing, even if Qian is still alive, it is impossible to let the war end. Continue to implement your plan. After all, everything you do is to be able to fight the Thunder Envoy again, right? I will help you achieve your wish."
