Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 761: Killing the Immortal (Part )

The Thunder Punishment Immortal took a step forward, bowed and saluted the Immortal Emperor, then spoke in a deep voice.

"According to the immortal law, if immortals fight and kill each other privately, they will be put on the Heavenly Punishment Platform and suffer the pain of being pierced through the heart by flying swords and being refined by thunder for 9981 days."

"Then the immortal bones will be pulled out, the cultivation will be abolished, and the person will be demoted to the lower realm as an animal."

"Those who commit serious crimes will not be able to be reborn as spiritually enlightened practitioners in the next ten reincarnations. Instead, they will be animals, birds, and insects."

Lu Ye felt a chill in his heart when he heard this.

You, a follower, why aren't you smart anymore?

Do you want to demote your grandfather to become a beast?
The Immortal Lei Xing changed the subject.

"However, I have found out that although Lu Ye has ascended to immortality, he has not yet entered the immortal gate. His name is not on the immortal register, so he is not considered a true immortal and is not subject to the constraints of the heavenly rules."

“So you can be exempted from the above punishment.”

"Besides, his feud with Dongfang Chaoge was based on some reasons, and he had no intention of killing her. He just wanted to hit Dongfang Chaoge twice to vent his anger."

"So it can't be considered a private fight or killing. It can only be considered an unintentional mistake, and the crime can be reduced by one level."

"Please ask the Immortal Emperor to make a clear decision."

Lu Ye breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Right, you immortal with thick eyebrows and big eyes, I almost thought you were going to kill me just now, you are so good at talking.

The crime is reduced by one level, very good, I like it!

The Xianhua Immortal Emperor thought for a moment and pointed at Lu Ye.

"You kid!"

"Since you have a reason for what happened, you can be spared the death penalty, but you can't escape the punishment of living!"

"Since you are not a true immortal, I will not use the immortal law to frame you, but you killed an immortal, even if it was unintentional, you will not go unpunished."

"Thunder punishment..." He turned to look at his henchman, "You stay and carry out the execution."

"Let him remove his own immortal bones and return this immortal power as punishment."

"If you want to become an immortal in the future, you must rely on your own abilities to overcome the heavenly tribulation!"

"The Emperor is leaving!"

After the Xianhua Immortal Emperor finished speaking a few words, there was a bang.

His body turned into countless points of light and dissipated, and even the white chess piece used to possess him shattered.

The Immortal Lei Xing bowed respectfully.

"Respect the Immortal Emperor's order!"

"Farewell to the Immortal Emperor!"

Lu Ye also hurriedly said loudly.

"I accept the punishment with all my heart!"

"Respectfully send the Immortal Emperor back to the Immortal Realm!"

What kind of punishment is it to remove one's own celestial bones?
He would have done the same thing himself, but now this immortal is not interested in doing it!
Moreover, he removed his immortal bones, but was no longer an immortal. He degenerated into a mortal body. At least he maintained his cultivation as a Taoist who had transcended tribulations.

And didn’t the Immortal Emperor of Manifestation say so?

This time of becoming an immortal does not count. If you want to become an immortal again in the future, you have to rely on your own abilities to overcome the tribulation.

If we understand this sentence in reverse, although Lu Ye made a mistake this time, it will not affect his next tribulation, and he can still become an immortal.

If this isn't care, then what is care?

Lu Ye felt that the other party might not be considering them because of their old relationship, but that he had succeeded in flattering Dongfang Chaoge.

The more hateful Dongfang Chaoge is, the more he deserves to die, and the more forgivable Lu Ye's behavior is.

The true spirit of the Immortal Emperor has left.

The waves are rolling on the long river of time and space.

Only Lu Ye and Lei Xing Xianren were left, and they looked at each other with wide eyes.

The originally stern and expressionless face of the Immortal Lei Xing was suddenly replaced with a friendly and cheerful smile.

"My friend..." He bowed and said, "I just said some harsh words as part of my duty, please don't take it to heart."

When Lu Ye heard this familiar "young friend", he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He bowed hastily.

"senior……"

Immortal Lei Xing waved his hands hurriedly.

"You can't address me like that. Senior is a special title for that person..." He pointed to the sky, then to himself, "Just call me Fellow Daoist Lei..."

"How can this be appropriate?" Lu Ye waved his hand and immediately said, "Lei Daoist Fellow, then please watch the execution for me!"

"I'll be quick, wait a minute!"

Lei Xingxian thought that this guy was taking advantage of the situation and was quite thick-skinned, not weaker than me.

He nodded and smiled.

"Okay, it doesn't matter if it's a little slower."

"The Immortal Emperor didn't specify a deadline."

"If you have anything you want to do, just go ahead and do it!"

Lu Ye shook his head to indicate no, and he didn't want to delay any longer, so he reached out his hand and inserted it into his chest.

A soft light appeared in the chest.

The immortal bone was held in his palm. He pulled it out with force. Immediately, a golden bone engraved with mysterious immortal runes came out.

This bone is different.

If you look closely, you will see circles of jade rings on the golden bones, evenly distributed from top to bottom. There are also numerous complex runes on the rings, as fine as sand, and there may be tens of millions of them on one ring.

Lu Ye was in so much pain that sweat was pouring down his head.

Removing one's own celestial bones is a thousand times more painful than being cut into pieces. It feels like pulling another self out of the body.

The sacral bone leaves the body.

His body immediately changed, rapidly degenerating from an immortal body into that of a mortal. His three bodies separated and he returned to the realm of the Taoist Lord.

at this time.

The immortal bone in his hand also turned into light spots all over the sky, which dispersed and fed back to this world.

The immortal Lei Xing exclaimed... This immortal bone looks very unusual!

When he appeared, even I felt terrified and shocked. How could this boy have such a strong foundation?
No wonder the Immortal Emperor takes such good care of him. It turns out that the two of them not only have a long history, but also because this boy has amazing potential.

If this is the case, he needs to make friends with him in advance. Dongfang Chaoge actually has no problem with the operation, it's just his bad luck that he became an enemy with this person.

he does not know.

The bone of destiny that Lu Ye dragged out, a copy of the Emperor Xianhua, was of course extraordinary.

No wonder he has little experience.

Whoever possesses this bone would not hide it very well. Who would be willing to let others use their spiritual consciousness to scan it and take a look?
When the Immortal Lei Xing saw that Lu Ye had finished removing his bones and waited for him to catch his breath, he smiled.

"My dear friend, all right, I will be your witness. You will remove your immortal bones and return this immortal power to the world."

"The matter of killing Dongfang Chaoge is written off."

"Here is a pill that can help you replenish your vitality," he stretched out his hand and handed over a thunder pill, "Don't be discouraged, practice well."

"I will say hello to the new Eastern Guide Immortal Envoy. The next Immortal Tribulation will definitely pass. I look forward to the day when we meet again in the Immortal Realm."

Lu Ye took the pill as if he was flattered, and thanked him profusely. At the end he choked with sobs.

"Friend Lei..."

“I really don’t know how to thank you!”

"Lord Immortal Emperor is a good immortal, and you are also a good immortal!"

"There are still so many immortals in the immortal world!"

"When we get to the fairyland, I will visit more often and we can get closer."

The Immortal Lei Xing laughed and said that this was exactly what he should do.

"I have finished my business here, so I will leave first..."

Lu Ye's heart moved, and he hurriedly said to Daoist Lei, "Wait a minute." He took a step forward and took the hand of Immortal Lei Xing.

"Since I have the audacity to call you a fellow Taoist, I feel very close to you, just like a half-brother."

"Can I call you Brother Lei?"

He now understood that the so-called fairyland was nothing more than a spiritually advanced version of the cultivation world, not much different from the lower world.

Since he can borrow the power of the Immortal Emperor, he should of course use his power as much as possible.

Lei Xingxian had already done his favor, so of course he nodded in agreement, thinking to himself that this guy had a very thick skin, much thicker than me, and what a talent.

Luye continued.

"Brother Lei, I have a problem and I don't know who to ask for help."

"Brother, you became an immortal early, have a high level of cultivation, and are well-informed. I hope you can give me some pointers..."

After hearing this, Lei Xing Immortal was not in a hurry to return. Since he was already here, he nodded.

"Okay, Brother Lu, you can go ahead and say whatever you want."

Lu Ye said seriously.

"I have a question. If the coordinates of my realm are discovered by the Demon Realm, is there any way to survive?"

Upon hearing this, Immortal Lei Xing immediately shook his head.

"No one is immune. I have been an immortal for tens of thousands of years, and I have never seen a world escape the demonic disaster."

Lu Ye was disappointed.

"Is it possible that the only way is to relocate the tribe to another world?"

The Thunder Immortal shook his head upon hearing this.

"Relocate the tribe?"

"Brother, if your realm has not been invaded by the demons, you may be able to escape and avoid disaster."

"If the demons have already invaded, as long as they appear before countless lives, they will plant the mark of the demon in everyone's hearts."

"These people escaped to the outside world. Even if the monks cleansed all their previous memories, as long as they are afraid every day, the mark of the inner demon will be awakened, revealing the coordinates of the new realm."

"So, when the demonic catastrophe occurs, everyone in this world is already dead. It's just a matter of dying early or late."

"Unless one's cultivation reaches the Nascent Soul stage or above, one can always reflect on one's true heart and clear away the fear."

"But there are so many people in this world, how many of them can reach the Nascent Soul stage?"

“So, when a demon descends upon a world, even if there are billions of living beings, less than one in ten thousand will survive.”

“My friend, if you have relatives or friends, you should take them to avoid the other world as soon as possible and let each of them cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage or above, so as to avoid disasters.”

Lu Ye felt like he was struck by lightning when he heard this.

He had just killed the Four Demon Immortals and become the savior of the human race, but right after that he heard the bad news from the Thunder Immortal.

Doesn’t this mean that there is absolutely no hope for the human world?
I wonder if the human world in the future will be able to gather more than a thousand Nascent Soul cultivators?
Can a human race with only a thousand Nascent Souls still be considered a human race?

He, the monk Tianti and the Thousand-Faced Judge, worked hard to multiply and expand the population, watching it thrive and grow into towering trees.

In the end, only the leaves are left alive. Isn't it all in vain?
His body was shaking, his lips were quivering, and he spoke hoarsely.

"Brother Lei, what about the Immortal Realm? Doesn't the Immortal Realm care?"

"The demons are rampant. Aren't they most afraid of the spiritual energy of the immortal world?"

"Everyone who ascends to immortality says that they will protect the fortune of their clan. The immortal world enjoys the support of all worlds, so shouldn't they protect all worlds?"

The Immortal Lei Xing looked at Lu Ye with a strange look.

"My friend, although you are not an immortal now, in my eyes, you are already an immortal."

"Okay, let's talk about some private things that the immortals know."

"What about protecting the clan's destiny? Just listen to it and don't take it seriously."

"In your eyes, what is the fairyland, and who are the fairies?"

"Do you think that it is like in the mortal world, where you have the responsibility to defend your land, and with great power comes great responsibility?"

"You are wrong! Absolutely wrong!"

Lu Ye was a little confused and said in a trembling voice.

"Please give me some advice, Brother Lei..."

The Immortal Lei Xing whispered in his throat.

It is true that demons are afraid of immortal energy, but immortals are also afraid of demonic energy.

The two have opposite properties, cancel each other out, and are each other's natural enemies.

If the Heavenly Demon Realm is to be completely eradicated, how much will the Immortal Realm have to pay? I'm afraid it will be almost as if the entire Immortal Realm is emptied out.

Then the question arises. Although the demon world is divided into pieces, the fairy world, apart from the Immortal Emperor, also has other Golden Immortal forces who only obey orders but not instructions.

Who is willing to sacrifice himself and hand over his sphere of influence to others?

Therefore, no matter whether the demon world unites to attack the fairy world, or the fairy world unites to eradicate the demon world, it is impossible to happen.

As for what Lu Ye said, that people who become immortals will bring down good fortune and protect the fortune of the clan, it is even more ridiculous.

The human world has experienced the replacement of three races of demons, monsters, and humans, the emergence of immortals, and the rise of the race. This is just a coincidence.

There are many realms in the myriad worlds that have a history several times older than that of the human world. In the long run, whether a clan produces immortals has nothing to do with whether the clan can prosper and become the ruling clan of the realm.

The rotation of the three races in the human world is just a coincidence.

On the contrary, the more immortals there are in a certain realm, the more magical powers they will awaken after they become immortals. They can absorb the spiritual energy of the realm where they were born and obtained enlightenment from the immortal world through the air. Half of it is used for their own cultivation, and the other half is dispersed in the immortal world and automatically converted into immortal energy.

Are you reluctant to absorb it?
Then your practice will be slower than others, and you will have to watch helplessly as many younger generations who become immortals later surpass you.

Such immortals could not survive the five calamities of wind, fire, thunder, heaven and earth, and would have died long ago.

"So..." Lu Ye swallowed hard, "The so-called exhaustion of spiritual energy in the various realms, is it because there are too many immortals in this realm, and they absorb too much spiritual energy?"

Immortal Lei Xing nodded as a matter of course.

"That's right!"

"Those realms that produced the most immortals the earliest, when their spiritual energy was exhausted to the extreme, became places of death. Except for the cultivators, you know the fate of those who have no spiritual roots and cannot cultivate immortals without me telling you."

"Fortunately, the sky is infinite. Perhaps this world will be destroyed but another world will be born, one race will be destroyed and another race will be born, just like the wheat in the field, which is harvested one after another."

"Only the immortal world will last forever..."

"No, the Heavenly Demon Realm will also exist forever. As long as there is war, killing and fear of all living things, there will be a continuous supply of nutrients to support the Heavenly Demon Realm."

"This is the spiritual energy in the eyes of the demon!"

“Friend Lu,” said the Thunderbolt Immortal sincerely, “You must understand that the Heavenly Demons are attacking all worlds and harvesting blood and fear.”

“But the immortal world also uses immortals as anchors to absorb spiritual energy from all realms.”

"The vast sky and the myriad worlds are fertile fields and pastures, and the immortals and demons hold sickles and whips."

"That's all I have to say..."

"You figure it out yourself..."

Lu Ye nodded heavily, he understood what Immortal Lei Xing meant.

To those ordinary creatures in the universe who cannot become immortals, the celestial demon is a demon, so why aren’t immortals also demons?

Since both sides are reapers, why should they fight to the death?

Anyway, the fertile fields and pastures are so big, with crops of wheat, cattle and sheep coming one after another. You want the fear of flesh and blood, and I want the spiritual energy of immortals. Isn't it good for us to harvest our own crops?
Seeing that Lu Ye was depressed, the immortal Lei Xing patted him on the shoulder.

"Friend Lu, take it easy."

"You only knew this after you ascended to the immortal realm. It is indeed a bit cruel for me to tell you everything now."

"I have been an immortal for thousands of years, and I have always thought about my Taoist partner, loved ones, relatives and friends."

"When I became an immortal ten thousand years ago, I could no longer remember their appearances, names, or even their past experiences!"

"You think I'm the only one like this?"

"No, no, in the immortal world, all immortals are like this, even the Great Luo Immortal Emperor is not immune. People call it the calamity of becoming an immortal and forgetting love. It's just that this calamity cannot be overcome."

"The immortals come from all races, but they are above all races and will eventually become a race of their own."

"Only you and I are the real tribesmen, and all the spirits in the lower world, but Niu Maer, you will see things more clearly after you have been an immortal for a long time."
