Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 164 Become a Container and Save the World

Xie Shen glanced inside the bronze gate.

After making sure that there was no problem with the so-called fairyland, he flew into the door carefully.

At the same time.

Seeing Xie Shen entering the Immortal Gate, Bu Tianran hesitated for a few seconds and then hurriedly followed him in.

Next came Sikong Rubing and two other elders of the Nanlian Sect who also had the cultivation base of the Nascent Soul Stage.

Considering this trip to the fairyland, there are cultivators like Xie Shen in the God Transformation Stage leading the way.

So after a brief discussion, the three of them entered the bronze gate one after another.

...

After arriving at the legendary fairyland.

The first thing that caught Xie Shen's eyes was a magnificent palace.

Can see:

There is a plaque on the lintel of the entrance to this palace with the words "Wanxian" written on it.

Upon closer inspection, one can see a nine-clawed golden-scaled dragon engraved on the large pillar outside the hall, and a colorful-feathered red-crowned phoenix carved on both sides of the door.

Bu Tianran, who came to this world after Xie Shen, could not help but admire it and said, "This Ten Thousand Immortals Palace. The spiritual energy around it is so dense that it even appears as white mist. It is indeed worthy of the word 'immortal world'!"

Bu Tianran was speaking.

Then, Sikong Rubing and three other Nascent Soul cultivators had also walked through the bronze gate and stood beside Xie Shen.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, the cultivator at the Spiritualization Stage spoke up again to invite everyone, "Fellow Daoists, since you have come to this world, why are you standing there without moving? Don't you want to come sit in my Ten Thousand Immortals Hall?"

Seeing the Divine Transformation cultivator in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals being so polite, Xie Shen also clasped his fists in return and said, "Excuse me for disturbing you."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the interior of the hall.

When Bu Tianran and the other four saw this, they hurriedly followed Xie Shen.

...

Xie Shen and others originally thought that the reason why the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals had the word "Ten Thousand Immortals" in its name was because its shape looked magnificent.

But after entering, everyone discovered that there was something else inside the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals:

At this moment, thousands of Nascent Soul cultivators were sitting cross-legged in the hall of Ten Thousand Immortals.

At first glance, it really lives up to the name "Wanxian".

Most of the Nascent Soul cultivators in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals were unfamiliar faces, but there were also some that Xie Shen and his men were familiar with.

"Wen Xin?" After seeing his old friend, Xie Shen couldn't help but shout to him, "Can you hear me?"

Xie Shen was shouting here.

Suddenly, an elderly white-haired monk walked out from the side hall of the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals.

——This white-haired monk has reached the Divine Transformation Stage. Judging from his voice, he is the same person who was talking to Xie Shen and others across the bronze gate.

Under the gaze of Xie Shen and the others, the white-haired monk stroked his long beard and said, "Don't waste your energy to call them. Almost 90% of the Yuanying stage monks in this hall have become containers and can no longer speak."

"Container?" Xie Shen looked puzzled when he heard this.

The white-haired monk glanced at the Nascent Soul cultivators present and replied, "Did you see the black gem mark between the brows of these Nascent Soul cultivators?"

"Those black gems contain the power of the indescribable creature 'Turbid'."

"It is precisely because of these seals that the indescribable creature 'Zhuo' has never been able to invade our Tianyuan Star."

Seeing this, the white-haired monk who had reached the Spirit Transformation Stage actually knew the term "indescribable creature".

Xie Shen was surprised and asked, "You actually call those beings indescribable creatures?"

"Why?" The white-haired monk asked in surprise, "So fellow Daoist also calls them 'ineffable'?"

"But then again."

"Those things cannot be touched, cannot be looked at, and cannot be described in words."

“So calling it an indescribable creature is indeed the most appropriate.”

"It's normal that we can think of the same thing."

In the main hall.

After a brief chat, the white-haired monk introduced himself to Xie Shen: "My name is Shi Yi, nice to meet the five Taoist friends."

"Eleven?" Xie Shen had never heard of anyone with the last name Ten.

Shi Yi hurriedly explained: "It's not eleven, but Shi Yi - Shi as in stone, and Yi as in wings of a tiger."

Xie Shen nodded to show that he understood.

He also introduced himself: "I am Xie Shen from Qingyang Sect, nice to meet you, Daoist Fellow Shi."

Next came Bu Tianran, Sikong Rubing and others. They bowed to Shi Yi as a junior and introduced themselves one after another.

Then Sikong Rubing spoke first.

She expressed her doubts and said, "Excuse me, Senior Shi, you just said that the indescribable creature 'turbidity' has been invading our Tianyuan Star."

"So what specific methods and channels did it use to invade?"

"And the black gemstones on the foreheads of those Yuanying stage monks in the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace."

"Then how did the black gem seal the indescribable creature 'Turbidity'?"

"It's a long story." Shi Yi was responding to Sikong Rubing while also explaining to Xie Shen and the other four people.

He slowly said, "There are two indescribable creatures on the Tianyuan Star where we are."

"One of them is called 'turbid'."

"And the other one is called 'Spirit'."

"These two indescribable creatures are mutually exclusive and incompatible. They have been fighting each other since ancient times."

"But their attitude toward humans is different."

"The attitude towards humans is different?!" After hearing what Shi Yi said, Xie Shen couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by that?"

Shi Yi explained: "The turbid air derived from the indescribable creature 'turbid' is extremely poisonous to humans."

"After a cultivator absorbs it, he will lose himself at best, or go crazy at worst."

"If an ordinary person absorbed it, he would die instantly."

"Compared to this, the spiritual energy derived from the 'spirits' of indescribable creatures is of great benefit to humans."

"It is by absorbing spiritual energy that we monks are able to master extraordinary powers."

"So from this point of view alone," Shi Yi concluded, "it is obvious that the attitude of the indescribable creature 'Spirit' towards humans is kind, while the attitude of the indescribable creature 'Turbidity' towards humans is hostile, isn't it?"

Are these indescribable creatures called 'turbidity' and 'spirit'?

After listening to Shi Yi's explanation, Xie Shen sighed and said, "I once heard a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage say that all extraordinary powers in this world come from indescribable creatures, including the spiritual energy that we cultivators absorb during our practice."

“I didn’t expect that this is actually the case.”

"On this Tianyuan Star, there are indescribable creatures called 'spirits' that can generate spiritual energy."

"And what surprised me the most was that this indescribable creature, the 'spirit', actually had good intentions towards humans."

“That’s really rare.”

"Rare?" The white-haired old man Shi Yi asked curiously, "Why do you mean?"

Xie Shen explained: "To be honest, I have been fortunate enough to visit many different planets due to various experiences."

"And without exception, these planets have indescribable creatures."

"And all the unspeakable creatures I have seen are extremely hostile to humans."

"Or in other words, they simply keep humans as cattle and sheep."

"They will do whatever it takes to extract emotion from humans as food."

In the main hall.

Hearing what Xie Shen said, Shi Yi stroked his long beard and said, "It seems that Daoyou knows more information about the indescribable creatures than I do."

"Just like what fellow Daoist said: the indescribable creature 'Zhu' on Tianyuan Star feeds on the crazy emotions of humans." "And in order to make as many humans as possible fall into madness, the indescribable creature 'Zhu' generated a large amount of turbid air on Tianyuan Star."

"I understand, I understand." Bu Tianran suddenly realized, "So in order to prevent the 'turbidity' from polluting Tianyuan Star, you kept tricking us, the Nascent Soul cultivators, into coming to the Immortal Realm, and used us as containers to seal the turbid air derived from the 'turbidity'."

"After the foul air is inhaled into the body, it will gather at the center of the monk's brows and eventually turn into the shape of a black gem."

"Am I right?"

"Heh." Shi Yi smiled helplessly and said, "You are right, but from your tone, it seems like you are blaming me."

"Just a question."

Shi Yi asked Bu Tianran, "If it weren't for me, who has been trying every possible way to trick Yuanying-stage cultivators into coming to the Immortal Realm, the entire Tianyuan Star might have been destroyed long ago."

"After all, without the Nascent Soul cultivators as containers, can you clear away all the turbid air derived from the 'turbidity'?"

"If you can't solve this problem, then you have no right to blame me."

this.
Perhaps he knew he was in the wrong.

It may also be that he was wary of Shi Yi's cultivation level at the Spirit Transformation Stage.

In short, Bu Tianran was speechless for a moment and did not make any more rebuttals.

But Shi Yi continued, "In fact, more than 90% of these Nascent Soul cultivators volunteered to be containers."

Xie Shen was curious when he heard this: "What do you mean by that?"

Shi Yi explained: "The reason is actually very simple."

“Except for a very small number of extremely talented people, most of those who can cultivate all the way to the Nascent Soul stage and transcend the tribulation to ascend to the Immortal Realm are old monsters who have lived for hundreds or thousands of years.”

"These people have left some descendants on Tianyuan Star."

“Those are all ties.”

"So after learning the truth about the fairy world and the harm that the indescribable creature 'turbidity' can bring."

"For the sake of the future of future generations, those people don't even need my coercion or inducement."

"They will naturally sacrifice themselves to serve as vessels to protect Tianyuan Star."

"besides."

Shi Yi continued: "Becoming a vessel has another benefit that is fatally tempting to monks."

"What benefits?" Xie Shen asked cooperatively.

Shi Yi replied: "I believe you all understand without me having to explain more."

“Everything in the world has two sides, and the good and bad sides can transform into each other.”

"So, although turbid air is harmful to the human body, it is highly toxic."

“But from a certain perspective, it is also helpful to the monks’ practice.”

"Can turbid air help people practice cultivation?" As soon as the topic of cultivation was mentioned, Bu Tianran immediately became interested, so he couldn't help but ask.

Shi Yi explained: "If the human soul is compared to a piece of ordinary iron."

"Then the turbid air is the fierce fire that can refine this ordinary iron."

"The souls of mortals are extremely fragile and cannot withstand the burning fire of turbid air."

"So after they inhale the foul air into their bodies, they will suddenly die."

"But it's different for monks."

Shi Yi emphasized: "Compared to mortals, the souls of cultivators are slightly stronger, especially those in the Nascent Soul stage."

"If one can withstand the burning flames of the turbid air, one's soul will undergo a transformation, and even give birth to divine consciousness."

"Then a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage can directly break through to the Spiritual Transformation stage with this."

"After reaching the Spiritual Transformation Stage, a cultivator's life span can be extended from one thousand years to five thousand years, and their strength is far beyond what it was before."

In the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace.

As Shi Yi was talking, he suddenly waved his hand and pointed at all the Nascent Soul cultivators sitting cross-legged in the hall.

He asked Xie Shen and the others, "Let me ask you, which Nascent Soul cultivator in this world can refuse the opportunity to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage?"

"Younger ones are easier to deal with."

"After all, once you become a container, if you cannot break through, then the cultivator will be forever affected by the turbid air from then on."

"I can't walk, I can't speak, I feel like I'm in a cage."

“So young monks will not become containers immediately after coming to my Ten Thousand Immortals Palace. Most of them will consider it for a while.”

"But they just ignore those monks who are old and whose life span is about to end."

"As long as there is a glimmer of hope to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage, they will try."

"So as more and more people volunteered to become containers, over time, my Wanxian Palace has grown to its current size."

Bu Tianran has always had an almost obsessive attitude towards spiritual practice.

So after hearing about the "turbid air breakthrough method" from Shi Yi, he hurriedly bowed to him and said, "Senior Shi!"

"Please, Senior Shi, teach me how to seal the turbid air."

"I, Bu Tianran, volunteer to be the container."

“If I cannot break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage, I will have no regrets even if I have to sit in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals forever!”

"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, Shi Yi let out a light exclamation and immediately looked Bu Tianran up and down.

He said with a hint of surprise in his tone: "I didn't expect that you would be so persistent in cultivation."

"Although you are not the only Nascent Soul cultivator who has taken the initiative to ask me for the sealing method."

“But those who ask for money are almost all elderly people.”

“They are not afraid of death.”

"There are very few people like you who are so young and dare to come and ask for the sealing method!"

Xie Shen understood the hidden meaning of Shi Yi's words.

He followed up on what the other person said: "You just said too little, not nothing."

"So before this, there was also a person who was not too old who asked you for the sealing method?"

"Indeed, there was one." Shi Yi nodded and said truthfully: "That person's name is Yi Yuankui."

"Besides me, he is the only other cultivator in the God Transformation Stage in the Immortal Realm."

"More than a hundred years ago, Daoist Fellow Yi Yuankui also took the initiative to ask me for the sealing method, just like Daoist Fellow Bu."

"After becoming a vessel, Yi Yuankui sat in my Ten Thousand Immortals Palace for a full seventy years."

"During this period, his soul was constantly polished by the turbid air, and finally it underwent a transformation and gave birth to divine consciousness."

"With this, he became a cultivator in the Divine Transformation Stage."

Although Bu Tianran was obsessed with spiritual practice, he couldn't move forward when he saw the method of breakthrough.

But at the same time he is also very smart.

He then asked cautiously, "May I ask where is the senior Yi Yuankui you mentioned now?"

"Ah."

Shi Yi chuckled and said, "You don't believe me, right?"

"That's understandable."

"After all, we should always be on guard against others."

"Then Yi Yuankui is different from an old guy like me."

"He is attached to the secular world, so he often leaves the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace to live a carefree life in the secular world."

"If you want to meet him to confirm whether what I said is true, you can stay in my Ten Thousand Immortals Palace first."

"Everything can be concluded after he comes back, right?"
