Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 165 The End of the Immortal World
In order to verify whether the 'Turbid Air Breakthrough Method' can really help Nascent Soul cultivators break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage as Shi Yi said.

Bu Tianran, Sikong Rubing, and the other two Yuanying stage elders who followed Sikong Rubing all chose to stay in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals.

As for Xie Shen.

He mentioned to Shi Yi the matter about Li Xiu's Human Alliance.

In the main hall.

Shi Yi thought for a moment and said, "After all this time, Brother Xie, the reason you came here is just to convince me to join the Human Alliance and then work together with you to fight against the indescribable creatures?"

"That's right." Xie Shen nodded and replied, "So what does Daoist Fellow Shi think?"

"I can only say that you are a little too optimistic." Shi Yi replied: "During the years I have been in the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace, I have also tried many methods to completely eliminate the indescribable creature 'turbidity' on Tianyuan Star."

"But it didn't work at all."

"Everything I tried, I failed in the end."

Having said that, Shi Yi suddenly stopped talking and instead used his spiritual sense to communicate with Xie Shen.

He used his spiritual sense to convey a message to Xie Shen.

"The power of the indescribable creature is too strong."

"It's so powerful that we humans alone can't compete with it."

"So I found another way and thought of using the method of using the opponent's force to fight against the indescribable creature 'Zhuo' on Tianyuan Star."

Borrow your strength?

Upon hearing this, Xie Shen immediately thought of the "checks and balances" proposed by Li Xiu before.

So he also used his spiritual sense to reply to Shi Yi: "You mean, you plan to use the power of an indescribable creature to fight against another indescribable creature?"

"Use the indescribable to fight the indescribable?" Shi Yi was deeply inspired after hearing this and said, "This is indeed a good idea."

"It's just that this method of checks and balances doesn't seem to be applicable to our Tianyuan Star."

Shi Yi followed Xie Shen's words and said, "After all, the indescribable creature 'Spirit' on my Tianyuan Star is a very rare indescribable creature that has good intentions towards humans."

"The pollution it spreads is actually the so-called spiritual energy."

"There are tens of thousands of cultivators on Tianyuan Star."

"These monks are absorbing the spiritual energy derived from the 'spirit' almost every moment."

"Over time, it will naturally greatly weaken the power of the 'spirit'."

"So 'Spirit' can't possibly be a match for 'Turbid'."

"Using 'spirituality' to fight 'turbidity' is definitely unrealistic."

"Who said that the method of checks and balances must use native indescribable creatures?" Xie Shen reminded Shi Yi: "You can completely lure the indescribable creatures from other planets, and then have them fight with the native indescribable 'turbidity' of Tianyuan Star."

"Attract another unspeakable creature?" Shi Yi shook his head and said, "Forget it!"

"Just the nameless creature 'Zhu' is enough to make me feel overwhelmed."

"If we attract another one."

"Once it gets out of control, the consequences will be disastrous."

Shi Yi finally expressed his opinion: "In short, I still think my method of using the opponent's force to counter the opponent is the most reliable."

Xie Shen asked curiously, "So what does Fellow Daoist Shi mean by using the opponent's force to counterattack him?"

Shi Yi said: "It means exactly what it says."

"Since the indescribable creatures are so powerful that they are impossible to defeat."

"Why don't we steal their power and use it against them?"

"As for how to steal it?"

Having said that, Shi Yi suddenly looked at Xie Shen with a meaningful expression on his face.

He continued to use his spiritual sense to transmit messages to Xie Shen.

"I can see that."

"Fellow Daoist and I are both like each other. We were able to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage only after stealing the power of an indescribable creature."

"right?"

Don't even say it.

Xie Shen was indeed able to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage after he stole the power of the indescribable creature 'Dream' by accident.

According to monk Hu Fanzhi:

There are three main ways for a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage to break through.

One is to take the path of transformation into God by integrating totems.

The second is to take the path of enlightenment and determination to transform from a divine being into an ordinary person.

The third is the path of transforming from a god into a demon with unclear cultivation methods.

These three paths are all orthodox methods of practice.

In contrast, the "stealing method" that relies on stealing the power of indescribable creatures to break through is a side job.

It's considered a unorthodox method.

Xie Shen originally thought that he might be the only one in the vast universe who had used the "method of stealing" to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage.

But he never thought that only ten years later, he met Shi Yi, who also broke through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage by using the 'stealing method'.

Not only that.

When Xie Shen was stealing the power of the indescribable creature 'Dream', the whole process was completed by accident.

Even until now, he himself has not been able to figure out the principle.

But Shi Yi is different.

He seemed to have developed a systematic routine, and used this routine to successfully train another cultivator in the God Transformation Stage.

Thinking of this, Xie Shen humbly asked Shi Yi for advice.

"To be honest, I was able to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage by using the 'Stealing Method' by accident."

"My research on the 'method of stealing' is far less profound than yours."

"So I hope you can give me some advice and pointers."

When Shi Yi was talking with Xie Shen, he seemed to be deliberately avoiding Bu Tianran and others.

He had been communicating with Xie Shen using his spiritual sense.

At that moment, he still used his spiritual consciousness to say to Xie Shen: "Since you are a fellow Taoist and have the good fortune to meet me here, it is only natural for me to give you some pointers."

Shi Yi said eloquently: "In fact, the key to the method of stealing is not the act of stealing itself."

"It's about how to avoid the attention of the unknown creatures after stealing the power."

"If I'm not wrong."

"Fellow Daoist, you must have stolen the power of the indescribable creature and fled to another planet."

"but"

At this point, Shi Yi suddenly changed the subject and said, "Daoyou, you don't really think that everything will be fine after you escape, right?"

"impossible!"

"I don't know exactly which unspeakable creature's power you stole."

"But I can see that the contamination from that unspeakable creature has slowly taken root in your body."

Shi Yi pointed out the key point and said: "You don't think there is anything wrong now, that's because you just broke through not long ago."

"The pollution in your body hasn't had time to grow yet."

"After forty, fifty, or even a hundred years, as the pollution in your body becomes more and more serious, the unspeakable creature whose power you stole will follow this pollution and directly cross the vast universe to find you."

this.
If you steal someone's things, they will follow the clues and find you. This does sound reasonable.

After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Xie Shen used his spiritual sense to reply to Shi Yi: "Since you also used the stealing method to break through, and you are still alive and well, and have not been visited by any indescribable creatures, this means that you must have a way to save your life, right?"

"Of course!" Shi Yi responded, and suddenly asked Xie Shen, "Daoyou, you don't really think that I left so many Nascent Soul cultivators in the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace just to save Tianyuan Star?"

"What do you mean?" Xie Shen was stunned when he heard that.

Shi Yi explained: "Although there will be pollution left in the body of the monk after stealing the power of the indescribable creature, this pollution can actually be shared by others."

Xie Shen understood what Shi Yi meant.

He suddenly realized, "So, the thousands of Nascent Soul cultivators who stayed in the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace are not absorbing the turbid air at all, but are sharing the pollution in your body?"

"Correct!" Shi Yi continued to reply with his spiritual sense: "And what about the other Divine Transformation cultivator Yi Yuankui that I just mentioned?"

"Do you really think he went to the underworld just because he was attached to the mortal world?"

"No!"

"Yi Yuankui went to the lower world to make plans and preach the Dharma."

"When he was preaching, he would dress up as a senior master according to the plots in vernacular novels."

"Or maybe he pretends that his life is coming to an end, so that he can pass on what he has learned to those mortals who are determined to seek the truth."

"You can even just give him a treasure and a technique as a gift."

"In short, the more you want to become an immortal, the deeper your obsession with transcending the tribulation and ascending to heaven is, the more I will help you."

"Oh, right."

As he spoke, Shi Yi hurriedly added: "There are also the four great beasts on Tianyuan Star."

"The four sacred beasts that exist in the secret realm, the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise, were arranged by me when I went to the lower realm when I was young."

"Its purpose is to ensure that all the Jindan-stage cultivators in the lower realm can successfully break through to the Yuanying stage."

"When you were young?" Xie Shen caught the key to Shi Yi's words.

He guessed, "So, fellow Daoist, it is not convenient for you to go to the lower realm now?"

"Of course." Shi Yi said as a matter of course: "Didn't I just say that?"

"The more serious the pollution in the monk's body, the easier it will be for the unspeakable creature whose power has been stolen to find you."

"Thinking back to more than one or two thousand years ago, I could still occasionally go to the secular world."

"When I meet a junior that I like, I will pretend to be a senior and take them in as my apprentice."

"Or taste some delicious food from the human world."

"But now, I can't leave this fairyland."

"The reason is that once I appear on Tianyuan Star, the indescribable creature 'Zhuo' on Tianyuan Star will chase me like crazy."

In the main hall.

After hearing what Shi Yi said, Xie Shen felt mixed emotions and asked, "So, will I end up like you in the future?"

"Even if there are Nascent Soul cultivators to share the pollution, do we still have to hide in some small world?"

"It is highly likely so." Shi Yi responded, "Unless you can break through to a higher realm and find a way out with your higher cultivation, my present is your future."

"Normally, a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage can live for a thousand years, and after breaking through to the Spiritualization stage, their lifespan can be extended to five thousand years."

"But cultivators like you and me who rely on opportunism and stealing to break through can only live to about a thousand years at most."

“It’s not because we’re going to shorten our lives.”

"It's because when we live to be about a thousand years old, the unspeakable creature whose power was stolen will notice us and attack us."

Shi Yi said with a hint of emotion: "Fortunately, I have foresight. I started to lay out the world and make plans for the future more than two thousand years ago."

"Then, by chance, I found this little fairyland."

"It is precisely because of the protection of the small world and the countless Nascent Soul cultivators who sacrificed themselves to share the pollution for me."

"So, after stealing the power of an unspeakable creature, I have survived for a full 3000 years."

For a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage to live to 3000 years is equivalent to an ordinary person living to around 60 years old.

He is already half an old man.

That's why Shi Yi has a head full of white hair.

After listening to Shi Yi's explanation of the whole story, Xie Shen frowned and said, "So it is impossible to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage by staying in your Ten Thousand Immortals Palace and practicing the so-called 'Turbid Qi Breakthrough Method'?"

"That's right." Shi Yi said with a hint of helplessness, "And I'm not afraid of being laughed at by fellow Taoists when I say this."

"Initially, I tricked those Nascent Soul cultivators into absorbing the turbid air in order to allow myself to live longer."

"But as time went by, I was trapped in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals and couldn't leave at all."

"As I discovered myself, I could only progress past the Spiritualization Stage due to my limited aptitude and talent."

"To be honest, I don't want to live anymore." Shi Yi spread his hands and said, "I can't go anywhere like this, what's the difference between that and being in prison?"

"wrong."

"There is always an end to prison. If you are lucky, you may be able to get out one day."

"But I am serving a life sentence in the true sense of the word!"

this.
Xie Shen asked curiously, "Since you don't want to live anymore, why do you continue to trick Yuanying-stage cultivators to come to the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace, and then make up the so-called 'turbid qi breakthrough method' to harm them?"

"Because there is no turning back for me." Shi Yi explained: "In order to steal the power of the indescribable creature 'turbidity', I absorbed too much turbid air."

"The turbid air will not only become more and more in my body."

"The turbid energy in the bodies of those monks who helped me share the turbid energy will also continue to grow stronger over time."

"We are like a balloon that keeps expanding."

"Once the turbid qi in our body becomes too much for our body to bear, we will burst like a ball."

"By then, a large amount of turbid air will overflow from the body, and the entire fairyland and even the entire Tianyuan Star will be polluted."

"So all the cultivators of the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace, including me, cannot die."

Shi Yi hit the key point.

"The Nascent Soul cultivators in the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals were transformed into living dead by my secret method."

"They are not conscious, but they cannot feel pain."

“But I went to jail.”

"Since the Temple of Ten Thousand Immortals needs me to maintain it, I can't die even if I want to."

"After all, once I die, there will be no one in charge of the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace, and those Nascent Soul cultivators who have become living dead will surely die with me."

"By then, I'm afraid there will be no one left alive on the entire Tianyuan Star."

Good guy.

Hearing this, Xie Shen couldn't help but sigh: "In fact, the problem of no one taking care of the Wanxian Palace is easy to solve."

"After all, you have trained a successor, the Divine Transformation cultivator named Yi Yuankui."

“But the problem of recruiting people will be a headache in the future.”

Xie Shen emphasized.

"To put it bluntly, isn't this just a pyramid scheme in the fairy world?"

"As more and more people help you share the turbid energy, you will have to attract more people to the Hall of Ten Thousand Immortals."

"After all, those who help you share the bad air also need someone to help share the bad air with them."

"This way, the number of people you need to attract will increase exponentially."

"No matter how many people there are on Tianyuan Star, or how many Nascent Soul cultivators there are, they can't stand your torment!"
