mortal mortal cultivator

Chapter 539 Doubt
"Why her?" the old man asked calmly.

"This problem has troubled her all her life, and she couldn't let it go until she died. She couldn't figure it out, you can give that book to anyone, why is it her?"

Lu Yunze was silent for a while, then shook his head and smiled.

"Don't you already have the answer? She can lead you to this point, it has already explained everything."

The old man didn't speak, just stared at him with those cloudy eyes.

Lu Yunze sighed silently.

"Okay, let me tell the truth... At that time, I was actually facing the same trouble as her. We all had to face an opponent who was impossible to win for various reasons."

"I had no way to deal with that opponent. I could only try all kinds of stupid methods like a clown who obviously screwed up the show but wanted to struggle again. And she gave her answer directly. "

Lu Yunze pointed to Li Baby's tombstone, and said with complicated eyes:

"The ant wants to defeat the elephant, and the grass snake wants to swallow the dragon. With such a gap in strength, courage is useless, and wisdom is irrelevant. The only thing that can be relied on is madness."

"The most extreme madness!" Lu Yunze raised his head, his black and white eyeballs were bloodshot.

"She's crazy. I know you don't like that, but it's true."

"me too."

"...Is that so." The old man was silent, not saying a word.

After a while, Lu Yunze suddenly heard him make a weak but firm voice.

"Lu Yunze, you are a cultivator, can you do me a favor?" The old man lowered his head and asked every word.

"Yes." Lu Yunze nodded and agreed.

"thanks……"

The old man raised his head and took out an old thick book from his arms.

Holding the thick book, he handed it to Lu Yunze.

"On it are the names of those 80,000 people. My memory has always been very good. As long as I have seen things at a glance, I can remember them."

"I remember all their names, 60 years, I have been here, to make a tombstone for each of them."

"They are all heroes, and they should not be forgotten. But in recent years, my memory has become less reliable. I often misremember their names, and the faces have become blurred in my memory. It's getting blurry, and I may not be able to finish their tombstones."

"I finished [-] tombstones, and there are [-] more to come. Lu Yunze, I remember that immortal cultivators have a spell that turns mud into stone. Can you help me finish these tombstones?"

Lu Yunze nodded, and flipped through the thick book full of names at an extremely fast speed.

He slapped his palm on the ground, and the ground trembled slightly.

If someone looked down from the sky at this time, he would see the entire interior of the huge pit, the pitch-black soil with a radius of thousands of feet, all surging like sea water.

Immediately afterwards, stone tablets emerged from the ground out of thin air, and names appeared on them one by one,
Lu Yunze and the old man stood in the center of the forest-like tombstone, looking around, a peaceful smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth.

"It's great, I haven't done the work for 60 years, you can finish it in a few breaths."

"That's great, but why do you have to step people into the mud to show your nobility?"

"Why do you have to take away what is left of other people in order to feel satisfied?"

"why……"

The old man looked up at the sky, and his voice gradually became inaudible.

Lu Yunze waited for a while, then stepped on the ground in silence.

The soil under the old man's feet turned into a swamp, gradually swallowing his body.A stele took his place.It is engraved with five big characters of 'Zhang Daoqi's Tomb'.

Lu Yunze sat on the ground for an unknown how long.

He muttered to himself: "Yes, why? I have thought about this question for more than a hundred years. Is it because of the lack of resources? Or is it because of the evil nature of human beings? Or, there are other reasons that I can't see clearly ?”

"Can you answer me? Pure thoughts. Or..."

"Han Li."

Lu Yunze's voice wandered among the tombstones, and Jing Nian, who was wearing a white cassock, appeared beside him at some point, sitting on the ground like him, without saying a word.

"Benefactor Lu, I said that when you get back what you left here, I will tell you everything. Now is the time." Jing Nian said calmly.

Lu Yunze nodded and said nothing.

Jing Nian sighed softly and stretched out a hand.

"Benefactor, please follow me."

Lu Yunze frowned, and grabbed his hand.

The next moment, Lu Yunze's soul seemed to fly into the sky, passed through many barriers, and arrived at a place beyond time and space.

The infinite interface was constantly arising and dying in front of Lu Yunze's eyes, and finally an invisible force brought him to an interface.

He saw a mortal named Body Refiner punching a Nascent Soul cultivator in the air, and he also saw the existence of a mortal holding a spiritual tool, fighting with a large number of monsters.

He also saw a strong man with a height of Zhang Zhang put a spirit grass into his mouth with a look of surprise on his face, and the next moment there was a wave of spiritual power on his body.

In a trance, he saw hundreds of races rising together, saw two races of humans and monsters struggling to survive in the cracks, and saw those precious body training methods that almost everyone had a copy of.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yunze fell back into his body, almost lying on the ground, panting heavily.

"Benefactor Lu, you saw it." Jing Nian sighed softly.

"I see! It turns out that everyone can lead spiritual energy into the body, and the spiritual root is just a converter of spiritual energy. This kind of converter can even be produced by the day after tomorrow!"

Lu Yunze took a deep breath, and finally recovered from that drowning-like reaction.

"The spirit world actually has this kind of technology!"

Jing Nian sighed again, and said helplessly to Lu Yunze:

"Benefactor Lu, what you should care about is not whether there is or not. You should think about why there is?"

Lu Yunze was startled when he heard the words, raised his head, and stared at him in surprise.

"Benefactor Lu, what you have done is actually quite remarkable. You have shown a way to mortals and proved to them that immortal cultivators are not irresistible."

"But you just sowed a seed. Whether this seed can grow into a towering tree depends not only on the quality of the seed, but also on whether the surrounding environment is suitable for growth."

Jing Nian stretched out his hand, and wisps of water vapor condensed into a long knife in his hand, with several runes flashing on it.

"Borrowing spirit stones to replace mana, the technology here is not complicated, it can even be said to be quite simple. The resources required are not too many. The spirit world can have it, and the land of the underworld can also have it. But why not the human world? You may have?"

"Benefactor Lu, do you know why?"
