Resurrection of all mankind

Chapter 253 Bu Tianran's breakthrough! An indescribable state!
In the cell.

Seeing Xie Shen open his eyes, the old monk who had spoken continued, "Daoyou, no matter what you have done or experienced before."

"Now that we have fallen into this hellish place, we should just make the best of it."

"As long as you are willing to work honestly for Perfect City for 800 years, the people here will give you freedom."

Seeing the elderly monk who had reached the Spirit Transformation Stage, his words and deeds no longer had the arrogance that a cultivator of the Spirit Transformation Stage should have.

Xie Shen was puzzled and asked: "You are imprisoned here, have you never thought about escaping from prison?"

"Ah."

The old monk laughed bitterly and shook his head helplessly, saying, "The Tower of Laws is heavily guarded, and there are restrictions set up with the power of laws almost everywhere."

“So even for a cultivator like me at the Spiritualization Stage, it’s hard to escape.”

"After coming here, if you cannot stay in your proper place and only think about escaping, you will only bring more trouble to yourself."

"Over time, it may even damage one's own Dao heart and cause one's cultivation to decline."

talking.

The old monk spread his hands and said, "Just like me."

"I originally had the cultivation level of the middle stage of the Spiritualization."

"Since I was imprisoned here, I have been feeling resentful for a long time."

"But I don't have the ability to escape."

"My dissatisfaction with the current situation, coupled with my own inadequacy, has damaged my moral integrity."

"So my realm also fell, and now I only have the cultivation level of the initial stage of the Spiritualization."

"And it is very likely that there will be no hope of breakthrough in this lifetime."

"Ugh"

At this point, the old monk couldn't help but sigh.

In front of Xie Shen, he suddenly waved his hand and used his magic power to press a red button on the wall of the cell.

The moment the button was pressed, a clear ringing sound was heard, and someone spoke cautiously outside.

"Senior, what are your orders?"

"Bring some wine!" the old monk ordered. "As always, grape wine."

"Also bring some roasted pork belly and pickled radish."

"Finally, bring me some deep-sea fish, well-cooked."

After a round of instructions.

The old monk turned to look at Xie Shen and said with a smile: "We work in the Tower of Laws. Although our freedom is restricted, our food, clothing, housing, transportation and other aspects are all met."

"No matter what you want to eat, drink, or play, the staff of the Tower of Law will try their best to satisfy you."

"Humph," the young monk who had been sitting silently by the side said disdainfully after hearing what the old monk said, "Those people in the Tower of Law are just using fine wine, delicious food and women to wear down our minds."

"After all, only if we live comfortably can we stay in this damn place with peace of mind and continue to work for Perfect City."

After saying this, the young monk hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed to Xie Shen, introducing himself: "My surname is Qian, my name is Xia Qing, nice to meet you, fellow Taoist."

——Like the old monk, the young monk Qian Xiaqing also only has the cultivation level of the initial stage of Spirit Transformation.

In the cell.

Seeing Qian Xiaqing introduce himself, the elderly monk beside him immediately followed suit and said, "My name is Lianyu, nice to meet you, fellow Taoist."

As soon as the voice fell, Xie Shen also responded quickly: "I am Xie Shen, polite."

While several people were exchanging greetings.

The wine, meat and food that the elderly monk Qian Xiaqing had just ordered have also been served by the staff here.

After all, cultivators in the God Transformation Stage are rare.

In view of this, the two monks, one old and one young, couldn't help but talk a little more after seeing the newcomer Xie Shen.

In addition, Xie Shen also wanted to get some useful information from the two monks, so the three of them became more and more excited as they talked.

With wine and food, the three of them toasted each other in the cell.
...

At the same time.

Aldebaran star system, inside the Ark starship.

In the alloy corridor.

Li Xiu, accompanied by his assistants Yang Xiang and Xue Guoer, followed by Zhuge Fu and several other scientific researchers, hurried to the outside of the secret room where Bu Tianran was.

Through the composite glass on the secret room door, everyone can see:
At this moment, Bu Tianran, a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage, was lying on the ground with a painful look on his face. His eyes were wide open, his mouth was wide open, and one could see a huge human-shaped mushroom growing out of his mouth.

The human-shaped mushroom would shake from time to time.

Every time it is shaken, countless tiny yellow-brown spores as small as mosquitoes can be seen scattered from its gills.

When those yellow-brown spores come into contact with the alloy walls, floors, or ceilings, they make a sizzling corrosion sound.

Finger-sized miniature 'Bu Tianran' can be seen growing out of the metal walls and ceilings.

Perhaps he felt the gazes of Li Xiu and others.

At this moment, all the miniature Bu Tianrans in the secret room looked towards the corridor outside.

"Okay, stop looking at it."

Li Xiu realized that something was wrong and hurriedly reminded everyone around him: "Those humanoid fungi growing in the metal are derived from unknown organisms called 'fungi'. They are highly contagious. So if it is not necessary, you'd better avoid looking at them."

talking.

Li Xiu suddenly said to the air inexplicably: "Fellow Daoist Diao, are you sure that your method can really work?"

The voice just fell.

Everyone at the scene heard a whisper that seemed to be faint in the sky, yet low and close at hand.

The voice replied to Li Xiu: "Didn't I tell you before that my method is only a concept at the moment."

"Because no monk has ever used it before."

"so."

"I'm not sure whether that method can save Bu Tianran."

As a core member of Li Xiu's team, Zhuge Fu recognized it at the first hearing. It was the pseudo-indescribable creature Diao Dao Ren who was speaking.

He asked curiously, "Brother Li, have you found a way to save Bu Tianran?"

"I guess so." Li Xiu turned his head and glanced at Bu Tianran in the secret room.

He said in a cold tone: "Although the success rate of this method is not very high, it is at least better than us doing nothing."

"In short, given Bu Tianran's current situation, we can only try our best to save him."

"You are lying!" After hearing what Li Xiu said, Zhuge Fu moved slightly.

He moved in front of Li Xiu and stared into his eyes and said, "Although you can lie without blushing or beating your heart, it is difficult for others to tell."

"But whenever you feel sorry for someone, whenever your conscience strikes, you turn your head away unconsciously."

"And you just happened to make this move."

"This means that what you are going to do next, your plan, is likely to trap Bu Tianran."

“Yes and no?”

Zhuge Fu is right.

Li Xiu did feel guilty.

Feeling guilty, he didn't dare to look Zhuge Fu in the eye, so he turned his head away again and said expressionlessly.

"Indeed, I do intend to sacrifice Bu Tianran."

“It’s not fair to the individual.”

"But we really have no other choice right now." Li Xiu analyzed the situation and said, "After all, as you can see, the Agent's army has gathered outside our Aldebaran star system."

"With only our current level of technology, the Flesh and Blood Spiritual Light Formation, and Deng Bin, a cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage."

"With just these, we will never be able to stop the Agent."

"So, if we want to stabilize the situation, we have to make sacrifices."

'Necessary sacrifice'

"What about Xie Shen?" Zhuge Fu asked, "Hasn't he already broken through to the Fusion Stage?"

"If we call him back to take charge of Aldebaran, wouldn't our crisis be easily resolved?"

Li Xiu pushed his glasses up on his nose.

He said calmly: "Xie Shen has more important tasks to do."

"And considering that butterfly dreams have a certain degree of randomness, they cannot land on a specific planet."

"Once Xie Shen returns early, it will be difficult to go back again."

"So, I don't plan to call him back for the time being."

"Okay." Zhuge Fu took a deep breath and said, "As a leader, you have to be responsible for all of us on Earth."

“You have to give and take.”

"So I believe that you have your reasons for doing this."

"But before you take any action, I want to ask you two questions."

Zhuge Fu said to Li Xiu word by word: "What exactly are you going to do with Bu Tianran? How are you going to sacrifice him?"

Just like Zhuge Fu said.

When Li Xiu felt guilty, he would unconsciously turn his head away.

Because he didn't want to look Zhuge Fu in the eye, Li Xiu looked again towards the secret room where Bu Tianran was.

He replied: "I plan to merge Bu Tianran's consciousness and his memories with the indescribable creature 'bacteria'."

"Or rather."

"I plan to kill Bu Tianran, and then create a new indescribable creature with Bu Tianran's consciousness and memories."

When he said this, a hint of madness that was hard to conceal flashed in Li Xiu's eyes.

He looked at Zhuge Fu and said, "You say, if an unnameable creature suddenly possesses Bu Tianran's memory and consciousness, should it be considered an unnameable creature? Or should it be considered Bu Tianran?"

"Merge a living person with an indescribable creature? And without the person's consent?" Zhuge Fu, who always had a strong sense of justice, grabbed Li Xiu's collar excitedly after hearing his plan and said, "Are you crazy?"

"I'm not crazy." Li Xiu still had a blank expression on his face: "I have conducted many simulation experiments on this plan with the cooperation of Diao Daoren."

"I am at least 50% sure of this actual operation."

Li Xiu explained the pros and cons and said, "If the plan fails, we will just lose a Spiritualization Stage cultivator who cannot be put into battle."

"And if the plan succeeds, we will most likely gain an extremely powerful fighter, thereby stabilizing or even reversing the situation on Aldebaran."

"This way, I will have more time to devote to the study of the power of law."

...

In a trance, Bu Tianran felt that he had had a very long dream.

In his dream, he found himself inexplicably split into countless pieces.

These fragments are invisible and intangible, and they are everywhere. They cannot be described, explained, or touched.

They will parasitize on the surface of all tangible objects and constantly absorb nutrients from them, thereby replicating themselves in large numbers.

As time goes by, the earth, mountains, rivers, and even the flowers, trees, birds, beasts, insects, fish, and all human beings on the planet.

All of this was contaminated by Bu Tianran.

Miniature Bu Tianrans grew on all materials.
in this way.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

This day.

Bu Tianran suddenly felt that a human with the cultivation level of the Spirit Transformation Stage had stolen its power using some special method.

This made Bu Tianran feel angry.

Following the trajectory of his own power, Bu Tianran quickly found the monk's hiding place in the vast universe.

Because too much pollution accumulated in the monk's body when he was stealing power.

So, taking advantage of these pollutions, Bu Tianran began to try to assimilate the other party into a part of himself.

Human power is small.

But at the same time they are great.

Bu Tianran underestimated the power of human beings - although the cultivator was far from being Bu Tianran's opponent, when he was on the verge of death and was about to be assimilated, the cultivator always managed to hold on to a breath and managed to cling to life.

As a result, the contest between Bu Tianran and the monk fell into a long stalemate.

wrong.

its not right.
Bu Tianran, who was lost in his memories, suddenly reacted as if he had just woken up from a dream.

seem.

like.

I am the monk who stole the power!

But if I am the thief monk who stole the power, then who am I originally?

who am I?
Am I a human or a ghost?

While thinking, Bu Tianran felt that the brilliance of humanity deep in his memory was suddenly awakened.

Then he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from the cushion covered with miniature Bu Tianran.

This moment.

Only Li Xiu's voice could be heard from the loudspeaker in the secret room: "Bu Tianran, can you hear me?"

"I'm."

Bu Tianran asked uncertainly: "Am I Bu Tianran?"

"Yes." Li Xiu said firmly: "You are Bu Tianran."

Can see:

During the conversation, Li Xiu, who was guarding outside the secret room, once again unconsciously turned his head away.

It seemed that he didn't dare to look Bu Tianran in the eye.

...

My name is Bu Tianran.

I started practicing at the Dashangqing Zhengyi Wanshou Palace in Longhu Mountain when I was 16 years old.

My whole life has been like walking on thin ice.

In order to break through from the foundation-building stage to the golden elixir stage, I once took the risk of absorbing the black mist.

In order to break through from the Golden Core Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage, I even forcibly snatched a Golden Brain Pill from another cultivator's stomach.

Thereafter.

In order to break through from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Spiritual Transformation Stage, I risked my own death and stole a large amount of extraordinary power from the indescribable creature 'Fungus'.

Now, by chance, I have taken another step forward and broken through from the Spirit Transformation Stage to a higher level.

I would like to call this state the 'indescribable state'.
