Chapter 982 The Secret of the True Immortal in the World
"I caused the abnormal movement in the fishing pond? Fellow Daoist, you think too highly of me."
The golden figure first laughed at herself, and then began to introduce herself: "My real name is Baihua Taoist, and I am the leader of Tianlian Sect in Wansheng Realm..."
"But that was thousands of years ago."
The tone of Baihua Taoist was a little sad: "Back then, the [no] character spell suddenly broke out and swept across all realms. Although Wansheng Realm tried its best to resist, it still couldn't stop it from spreading. We had no choice but to abandon the realm and flee. We originally wanted to find a safe place to take refuge, but we didn't expect..."
"Everywhere I passed, it was a scene of the end of the world."
The golden figure of Baihua Taoist flickered slightly, as if blown by a breeze, showing her extreme restlessness in her heart. Even after so much time, every time she recalled the scene of that year, her heart was suddenly turbulent.
"The disasters encountered by each world are different. The gray mold spots in the star field around our Wansheng world are like a surging sea, engulfing everything in the world. In some worlds, distorted creations appear and are completely destroyed in the constant killing of each other, like a bloody purgatory."
"If it were just these, as long as we run far enough, we might still find a glimmer of hope. But..."
"Inside the Immortal Ruins, there are [True Immortals]." Li Fan said in a faint tone at this time.
Baihua Taoist glanced at Li Fan and nodded slightly.
"Outside the Sinking Star Field, there is an invisible barrier that prevents us from leaving. And in the Sinking Star Field, there are True Immortals who use the [Hunger] character to realize the Tao and ignore the life and death of the people..."
"Hmm? Wait. You just said that there are True Immortals who use the [Hunger] character to realize the Tao? What does this mean?" Li Fan's eyes flashed and he asked aloud.
"Aren't True Immortals suppressed by the Hunger character?" Li Fan raised the question in his heart.
Taoist Baihua was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "It seems that fellow Taoist Xuanhuangjie doesn't know much about the True Immortal, so he has some misunderstandings."
"According to the research of the surviving cultivators in our various immortal cultivation worlds, the immortal seal characters such as [hunger], [chaos], [nothing], etc. that caused the disaster in our star field should all be written by a True Immortal."
"This True Immortal has the supreme power to embody the laws of the world as words. With just a few strokes, he can easily destroy a domain and countless immortal cultivation worlds."
"So, all the disasters we have suffered are caused by this True Immortal?" Li Fan asked in a deep voice with his eyes flashing.
Unexpectedly, Taoist Baihua shook his head slightly to deny: "Didn't I just say that if it was really that True Immortal who took action, our star field would have been destroyed in an instant. The hunger and chaos characters that broke out in the disaster, although they also brought endless world-destroying disasters, are not worthy of being compared with the True Immortal's means."
"That is..." Li Fan was slightly startled, and then he thought of something in an instant.
"Imitation pen?"
"Yes. The surviving cultivators in various worlds, after synthesizing the records of true immortals handed down from various worlds, all came to the same conclusion. The immortal seal characters that caused the disaster in the lower world all came from the same person, or immortal." Baihua Taoist said slowly, but there was no hatred in his tone, but it was full of powerlessness.
Li Fan heard this and couldn't help but be a little confused: "We in the Xuanhuang world have experienced all kinds of disasters. We know very little about true immortals. But why did that immortal create such boundless killing for no reason?"
"Immortals will not do meaningless things. Just like the immortal in the Immortal Ruins, who sat for thousands of years and realized the way of the word [hunger] to the extreme. It was to go further and achieve the realm of [nameless true immortal]." Baihua Taoist sighed infinitely.
"Nameless true immortal? I have heard of this. It is impossible to know his name, and all records have disappeared..."
"Could it be that immortals also have levels? Not all immortals are like this?" Li Fan asked humbly.
"That's right. When the immortal path is not yet extinct, we cultivators can also ascend to become immortals. After receiving the baptism of the immortal spirit and leaving the mortal body, we can officially become immortals. Our strength will change dramatically in an instant, expanding more than a hundred times."
"But compared with the [Nameless True Immortal], there is still a world of difference. Every immortal is an ultimate seeker of the Tao. When they can completely master a path in the world, they will be an existence that transcends everything. Everything in the past is erased, and the world cannot know their names. They can only be called by the path they master."
"The nameless true immortal who engraved the Tao with words, we respectfully call him [Inscribed Tao Immortal]."
...
Listening to the story of the realm above the immortal by Baihua Taoist, Li Fan couldn't help but be fascinated.
The information about immortals in Xuanhuang Realm has long disappeared in the long river of history, and even the Dharma transmitters know very little about it.
Perhaps only the Five Elders Association, the remnants of the ten sects of the immortal path, has some information left.
Today, by chance, I was able to meet the survivors of the ancient immortal calamity and learn the secrets of the true immortals. This is definitely a great opportunity.
Of course, Li Fan did not trust the Baihua Taoist completely.
Just listen to it for now.
...
The Baihua Taoist continued: "The Mingdao Immortal has already transcended, but he may have left behind several Mingdao authentic works."
"I don't know what happened in the immortal world back then. The immortal road collapsed and the immortals fled. These authentic works may have been obtained by one of the immortals."
"He copied and wrote down the words "hunger", "chaos", and "nothing", which caused cholera in the world. This must be related to the path he cultivated."
"Chaos and "nothing" destroyed countless immortal cultivation worlds, but the word "hunger" was obtained by another immortal. And perhaps the word "hunger" fits the immortal's path, he sat cross-legged at the passage to the former immortal world and comprehended it on the spot."
"You must know that ten thousand years may be extremely long for us. But for the immortals, it is just a period of seclusion."
"As for the consequences of his understanding of the word hunger..."
"We, the lower realm cultivators, are all ants in his eyes. How could he care?"
When Baihua Taoist said this, there was a bit of resentment in his words.
After Li Fan absorbed all the other party's words, he thought slowly.
"These are all your guesses, right? Is there any substantial evidence?"
Baihua Taoist shook his head, but was still very sure: "The survivors of our group who survived the disaster were all the most powerful people in various circles. With the help of the remaining information from various circles, it is speculated that..."
"Even if it is not the absolute truth, it is not far away."
"Especially those who copied the seal characters of the real immortals and realized the word hunger, they are only at the realm of immortals. Although their strength is absolutely overwhelming us cultivators, they have not reached the unpredictable level of the nameless real immortal." Baihua Taoist's tone has a sense of pride.
Li Fan recalled that in the 115th life, the person in the Immortal Ruins suddenly opened his eyes after sensing his gaze. He also transmitted the word "hunger" to the Xuanhuang Realm through the induction of his clone, thus destroying the world.
