The Record of Immortal Cultivation

Chapter 649 Book of Life and Death

Having walked through this world, I have sketched out hundreds of thousands of souls.

During this period, Xu Yuxiu witnessed all kinds of separations and deaths, and she no longer felt sympathy for the death of some mortals as she did at the beginning.

Indeed, after witnessing so many lives and deaths, she felt somewhat numb.

In this world without spiritual energy, created by the great formation, mortals cannot practice cultivation, and naturally cannot seek immortality.

It seems as if these mortals were born to die, the only difference is who dies early or late.

During this period, Xu Yuxiu also saw some mortals who wanted to resist the fate of death.

Those mortals study everything, analyze everything visible and invisible, summarize them, and try to apply them to themselves.

But the final result will undoubtedly end in failure.

After all, the entire world, the vast starry universe, is just a derivative of the great formation.

The rules, materials, theorems, etc., are just created by the formation.

In this way, even with Xu Yuxiu's current cultivation level, he can rewrite these things after using some means.

To take the simplest example, she can make the fire and water in this world reversed. This is the easiest thing she can do now.

If more means were used, all the truths discovered and concluded by ordinary people in this world throughout their lives could be overturned or even erased.

All this is because in the world derived from this great formation, everything is relatively too weak. Even a deity can have the ability to change the entire world.

In this way, no matter how hard the mortals in this world struggle to achieve immortality, they will eventually return to their predetermined fate of death.

Inexplicably, Xu Yuxiu felt a sense of sadness for the mortals in this world.

No matter what you do, you can't escape your predetermined fate, so why bother struggling to survive in this world?

It would be better to die early, rather than suffer all kinds of sufferings in this world.
Xu Yuxiu followed the ghost who was leading her to the last soul in this world and came to a field.

In front of this field, there was an old man who was over 70 years old. He was skinny but had bright eyes.

Xu Yuxiu glanced at the old man and found that his spirit was a little too abnormal. He should be in a state of last breath.

In this way, it is not difficult to see that the one who is trying to seduce the soul should be this old man.

After Xu Yuxiu and the ghost that led her came here, they just watched quietly from the side without interfering with the old man's last moments.

“Xiao Liu, the seedlings in this experimental field need to be carefully checked today.

Xiao Wang, there are a few new species that have just been cultivated in that experimental field. Remember to keep an eye on them. Also..."

The old man was standing at the edge of the field, leaning on a crutch, and speaking hurriedly, as if he had realized that he didn't have much time left and was hurrying to pass on some important matters.

Under the old man's hurried words, many people became busy.

At this moment, a girl wearing glasses came over and comforted the old man, "Grandpa Li, your condition has just improved. You should rest more. The whole world is counting on your research to make further breakthroughs and solve the world's food and clothing problems. You can't overwork yourself and fall ill again."

The old man heard this and shook his head: "How can I have time to rest? I can feel that my time is running out. If I rest any longer, I'm afraid..."

"Pfft, pfft, what are you talking about, Grandpa Li? You are so energetic now, you are not allowed to say such unlucky words!"

"You girl." The old man shook his head helplessly and paused for a while.

The girl brought a recliner and placed it under the shade of a tree. Then she helped the old man lie down on the recliner and took a rest.

"Yuanyuan, our research can benefit all mankind. You must persevere in completing it. I have failed to complete it."

Even when the old man lay down to rest, he was still talking.

The girl didn't mind and listened quietly.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but the old man, perhaps really tired, lay quietly on the recliner and fell asleep.

The girl tried it out and found that the old man was really asleep, so she covered him with a blanket and went back to her own research.

Time gradually passed into the evening and the sun was about to set. The girl then came to the old man again. She called him a few times tentatively, but there was no response.

At this moment, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

Finally, after some mental preparation, the girl reached out to feel the old man's breath.

The moment her fingers touched the old man's nose, she froze.

The next moment, the girl's sad cry spread throughout the place, attracting everyone present.

When the news of the old man's death was learned, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly fell into grief.

This atmosphere of grief over the death of the old man quickly spread and spread across the country.

The whole country mourned the old man's death.

When the old man's funeral came to an end.

Xu Yuxiu and the ghost leading her came to the old man's soul.

"The time has come, it's time to get going."

The ghost who led Xu Yuxiu this time said something to the old man.

Xu Yuxiu was also a little surprised when she saw this. According to the ghost's previous actions, it should not be so patient as to wait for the old man to finish watching his funeral before taking possession of his soul.

Perhaps the ghost saw Xu Yuxiu's confusion, and it explained: "Souls like this have made great achievements while they were alive, so they will accumulate a lot of Yinde. After we bring them back to the underworld, with the Yinde they have accumulated, they can still be reborn as a human being in the world, and they can also be reincarnated into a good family."

Xu Yuxiu listened to the ghost's explanation and inexplicably felt that this was an accumulation. Was this what she deserved?
In this reincarnation, I am reborn as a mortal in this world, and go through the birth, aging, sickness and death that I experienced as a mortal in my previous life again?
Can this be considered as accumulating good karma?

"Could it be that mortals in this world cannot reincarnate into the world of cultivation?"

Xu Yuxiu asked the question in her mind.

"Of course he can, but he needs to accumulate merits for nine lifetimes before he can get a chance to reincarnate into the world of cultivation. He still needs three lifetimes."

As the ghost spoke, he handed the "Book of Life and Death" in his hand to Xu Yuxiu.

"Okay, this Book of Life and Death will be given to you from now on. Remember to bring back the souls recorded in it on time."

When Xu Yuxiu took over the "Book of Life and Death".

It was at this moment that the old man's soul withdrew its lingering gaze, quietly followed Xu Yuxiu and the ghost, walked into an open door, and went to the underworld.
