The Lord of Heaven asked

Chapter 172 Immortality and Immortality

The Corpse King, perhaps it can now be said that he is the Supreme Lord of Reincarnation. He is the second person in the underworld after the Lord of Hell to successfully form the Seal of Reincarnation.

He is in charge of the Hall of Reincarnation in the underworld and is one of the giants in the underworld.

The original body was an ancient corpse that Mingzun dug out from somewhere unknown, and it was suspected that he had supreme cultivation when he was alive.

After being taken back to the underworld by the Lord of the Underworld, he was awakened by his great magical powers and embarked on the same path as the Lord of the Underworld.

Ye Xiu was very suspicious that the predecessor of the Supreme Lord of Reincarnation was most likely the Supreme Lord who died in the chaotic ancient times.

The Samsara Supreme in front of him just looked lifeless on his face, but in other aspects he was no different from a normal person.

If he is really like Hades, and takes the path of reincarnation seal, perhaps after a long time, he can really come back to life and regain his past memories.

However, at present, the Supreme Lord of Samsara has only formed one Samsara Seal, and it will take a long time to complete that path.

"If you want to enter the fairyland, according to my deduction, you must at least have the cultivation of the immortal way to break through the fairyland gate, otherwise you can only wait for the fairy gate to open!"

After hearing Ye Xiu's words, the several supreme beings in the underworld looked dim, as if ghost fire was burning in their pupils.

What Ye Xiu didn’t say was that the path taken by the underworld had certain similarities with the burial areas during the chaotic ancient times.

Perhaps, this is also a way for Lord Ming to try reincarnation.

"Fairyland..." the other supreme beings murmured, their eyes dimming a lot.

They obviously also want to enter the fairyland. They are not corpses with spiritual powers, but supreme beings who voluntarily join the underworld to study immortality and reincarnation.

For them, they have given almost everything for longevity.

All my relatives and friends have passed away, and now I have made myself look like neither human nor ghost.

But even so, they still did not give up their obsession with becoming immortals.

Ye Xiu’s current combat power is not enough to break into the fairyland. If they were to take over, wouldn’t their hope be even slimmer?

They don't think that their fighting power is stronger than Yuanshi Tianzun who defeated Emperor Zun.

"Back then, I, Lord Ming, and Lord Emperor were also here, deducing the path to immortality. In the end, we concluded that apart from the correct time and place, only by relying on immortal cultivation can the immortal realm be opened! It's the same now!"

"If you want to enter the fairyland, then live on. As long as you live, there will always be hope!"

After Ye Xiu finished speaking, several supreme beings in the Hall of Rebirth looked at each other in bewilderment.

Live!
This is what they have been thinking about all along. They have tried every possible means to stay alive, just waiting for the day when the fairyland will open.

But human power is ultimately limited, and even though they are supreme, they are insignificant in the face of life and death.

In the past, there were also supreme beings who had been silently waiting in the forbidden area for the opening of the immortal path, but they never waited for that day until they passed away.

Although the underworld studies reincarnation, the person who creates the reincarnation seal has no connection with the past after all. He is a completely new life form, which makes them dare not try it easily.

Over the years, they have been studying the Samsara Seal and the True Blood of All Spirits in an attempt to find out the drawbacks of the Samsara Seal. Apart from that, they also want to have an insurance policy.

Even if the reincarnation seal fails in the end, one can rely on the true blood of all spirits to live a new life and even become an immortal.

The paths taken by Ming Zun and Ye Xiu are full of uncertainty for them.

"Fellow Daoist, are immortality and becoming an immortal related?" asked the Eternal Heavenly Lord.

Ye Xiu turned around. The reason why he spent so much time chatting here was not only because these supreme beings had not yet launched a dark turmoil, but also because they had communicated with each other before.

"As Daoyou said, if one continues to be reborn in the world and maintains peak combat power, what difference is there between this and becoming an immortal?"

Changsheng Tianzun then spoke, looking at Ye Xiu, wanting to get an answer from him. The other supreme beings also looked at Ye Xiu seriously, wanting to see if he had a different opinion from them. Become an immortal!

In everyone's mind, after becoming an immortal, they will completely get rid of the mortal body, have endless lifespan, and be immortal. Even if the universe is destroyed, they will still be able to survive and not be affected by the outside world.

The mortal immortal path that Ye Xiu described, although relying on Nirvana to continue living, is not a true immortal after all. When the blood and energy are finally exhausted, even if one maintains peak combat power, there will be a day when one will sit and fall. This is different from his ideal immortal.

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think is the relationship between immortality and becoming an immortal?"

Ye Xiu did not answer directly, but asked in return. The other party's mind could not be just to enter the fairyland and become a true fairy, or even a false fairy. What they pursued was just to have infinite life after becoming an fairy.

"I know what you are thinking. You just think that the path to becoming an immortal in the mortal world is difficult to follow, and you may even fail. And you may not be able to become an immortal even if you make it to the end!"

"But everyone, have you ever thought about this? If you really live forever, then there is a difference between you and the immortals. All things have different paths but the same destination. The paths you take may be different, but in the end, they may be the same!"

To go from a human to an immortal is a difficult task, not to mention that it is a difficult task in today's Nine Heavens and Ten Earths where there is a lack of life-promoting substances. Even in the immortal realm during the chaotic ancient times, it was not an easy task to become an immortal creature.

According to Ye Xiu's memory, in the chaotic ancient times, even the creatures that took the shortest time to become immortals had to go through 500,000 years to complete the transformation from human to immortal.

Even Emperor Huang Tian went against the flow of time and space, stayed in the era of the emperor's fall for more than 400,000 years, perfected his own Tao and law, and opened up a brand-new system of cultivation, before he overcame the calamity and became an immortal.

These supreme beings before us have reached the pinnacle in just a few thousand years and are invincible in the realm of humanity.

Or maybe their minds were a little impetuous. After becoming invincible in the human realm, they did not think about continuing to settle down, but wanted to become immortals.

They naively believed that as long as they cultivated the human realm to perfection and entered the fairyland, they would be able to become immortals.

Since the end of the chaotic ancient times, there has been a blank period in history and many things have been erased.

Although some relics from the turbulent ancient times have been excavated, there are still too few records about the way of immortals.

Although all the supreme beings in the mythological era knew the concept of immortals, few knew how to become one.

Even though Lord Ming, who had a predecessor in the turbulent ancient times, had lost many memories due to deep slumber and could only practice according to his instincts.

In addition, there are old men like Ye Xiu, who have always been thinking about how to become an immortal.

However, the current accumulation is not enough for him to take that step, and it will take a long time to settle down.

"Fellow Daoist, although you are amazing and can live for several lifetimes, you still cannot become an immortal!"

"This world lacks the substance that can prolong life. As long as you haven't become an immortal, you will eventually grow old under the erosion of time!"

The thoughts of several supreme beings did not change immediately. They believed that those who could survive in a universe lacking in immortal substances were not true immortals and would die sooner or later.

"Haha, despite this, isn't my condition much better than yours?"

Ye Xiu no longer intended to reveal too much. Considering their past friendship, he had said everything he could. If these people still wanted to wait for the fairyland to open, then let them wait!

Several supreme beings were stunned for a moment. Indeed, although Ye Xiu had not yet become an immortal, he was able to maintain his peak state and was not afraid of the erosion of time. He was free and at ease, which was much better than those people who were sealed in the immortal source all day long.

“Everyone, it’s still too early to talk about becoming immortals. Right now, the most important thing for me and you is immortality. As I said before, as long as we survive, there is hope!” Ye Xiu finally said, standing up and preparing to leave.

“Fellow Daoist, do you have a method for longevity or a way to become an immortal?” Changsheng Tianzun asked again, with a hint of urgency in his voice, and it was obvious that his desire for longevity and immortality had not diminished in the slightest because of Ye Xiu’s words.

Ye Xiu smiled slightly, his eyes deep: "There is no definitive answer to the method of longevity in the world. As for the path to immortality, it requires individuals to constantly explore and practice according to their own circumstances."

After finishing speaking, Ye Xiu took a step forward and left the underworld, leaving only the Supremes looking at each other in bewilderment.

　I caught a cold recently and I'm not feeling well. I can't keep up with the typing sometimes and can't post on time. I hope you understand. There should be another chapter later, around 10 o'clock.
