From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Then, the first generation Jiang Liu took out a packet of salt, a handful of peppercorns, and a bundle of chopped green onions from his storage ring.

"Wow! What kind of stuff do you keep in your storage ring?" Zhang Zhiwei blinked, his head full of question marks.

"Everything necessary for daily life, tools, food, seasonings, and so on, is there." The first generation Jiang Liu checked his storage ring and was slightly speechless at the fact that he, in his 1749th tribulation, carried so many miscellaneous things with him.

However, it must be said that this is a good precaution, as it can help deal with any unexpected situation.

otherwise.

For now, all they can eat is bland and tasteless beef.

Then, the first generation Jiangliu took the pot off the fire rack, took out a pressure cooker, put in rice, poured in water, rinsed it twice, and then placed it on the fire rack.

There were only thirty or fifty pieces of coal piled up under the fire stand, but no matter how much it burned, it remained the same, a bright red patch, as if it could never be burned out.

therefore.

In less than half an hour, as the pressure relief valve on the pressure cooker turned and steam escaped, the rice was cooked.

In this magical realm, everyone enjoyed a delicious meal of rice and beef...

They didn't seem like unlucky souls who came here to break the curse and retrieve Jiang Liu's primordial spirit; rather, they resembled explorers on an outing to this realm of illusion.

# Chapter 1027 The Rules of Realm Transformation

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Zhang Zhiwei let out a burp, looked at the coals under the fire pit, which were still glowing red with a faint red flame, and then looked at the pot of beef that they had eaten clean, without even a drop of soup left, and said with a smile, "This kind of illusion is nothing special. I thought the beef that was eaten could just regenerate out of thin air."

"When memories are transformed into real existence, they must also conform to the physical laws of reality."

The first generation Jiang Liu chuckled.

The scenery changes constantly.

Based on the clues we currently have, there are two rules:

First, the things that are conjured up are real and not false.

The very existence of Evil Luo Sea City is itself a very strong piece of evidence.

Secondly, if there is no external influence, the things that are conjured will remain at the original moment.

evidence?

Even after thousands of years, the furniture inside the stone house of this conjured Evil Luo Sea City has not accumulated a single speck of dust visible to the naked eye.

The fact that beef has been cooked for nearly a thousand years and charcoal has been burned for nearly a thousand years is also undeniable evidence.

However, once external forces intervene.

For example: if these people eat beef, then the beef will not appear out of thin air again.

“There’s another rule: you can’t conjure living things!” Zhang Zhiwei added. “This city is deserted.”

"That's not necessarily true."

The first generation Jiang Liu's ears twitched, as if he had heard something. He smiled mysteriously, put down his chopsticks, walked to a door of the stone house, pushed it open, went inside, and waved to Zhang Zhiwei.

The latter, out of curiosity, followed.

The others followed suit.

After passing through the portal and a passage about ten meters long, a sealed space came into view, followed by a strong smell of blood.

The walls were covered in blood, and on the slaughtering table in the middle were pieces of bloody yak meat, with yak hides dripping blood around them, as if they had just been slaughtered.

Upon seeing this scene, only Fifteen felt somewhat nauseous. The rest of them were all cultivators. Even Old Man Yang and Hua Ling had seen far more disgusting scenes, so how could they be frightened by it?

"what!"

Fifteen looked to the left and suddenly cried out in surprise.

There used to be a yak head there!

A skinned yak head!

The reflection of everyone in his wide eyes, hot breath coming out of his nostrils, and his long tongue flicking up the blood on his nose, made him seem as if he were still alive!

The headless body of the yak was trapped inside a fence, its limbs and tail seemingly still conscious, trembling slightly.

It was obvious that the yak was secured by its neck with a fence before being slaughtered, and then the butcher swiftly cut off its entire head, skinned it, and hung it on the wall.

But the ox seemed to have noticed the group, and even let out a "moo".

Instantly!

"What kind of monster is this!"

Zhang Zhiwei raised his hand and unleashed a palm strike of lightning, slamming it into the skinless bull's head, charring it black and extinguishing all life.

What are you doing?

The first generation Jiang Liu was speechless. "Just like a gecko losing its tail, the tail can still move; it's just that the nerves haven't completely died. Is it really necessary to make such a fuss?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhiwei suddenly remembered that during his time with the Gong Sect, when he killed a chicken, even after cutting off its head, the chicken's body could still move. He suddenly realized what had happened.

But to be honest, the fear that comes from a large creature still being able to move after being killed is completely different from the fear of a chicken losing its head or a lizard losing its tail.

Not to mention that the yak head even let out a bellow, and since this place was created by the Xingjing illusion, Zhang Zhiwei directly used thunder magic just in case.

"Haha, I'm just doing this for safety reasons."

But Zhang Zhiwei was also a smooth talker, showing no embarrassment whatsoever. He quickly changed the subject, pointing to the yak's head and body, saying, "This should be the third rule of the Transformation Realm, which allows living creatures to be transformed as well. This yak was beheaded and skinned, not completely dead, but because it was transformed, without any external influence, it's as if time has been frozen, howling here for thousands of years..."

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that it was actually a good thing that Zhang Zhiwei had killed the yak head with lightning magic, at least it had freed it from thousands of years of suffering.

"...So theoretically, a person can also be created. As long as there is a physical body and memories, and they come to this material reality, their soul will be born naturally. At most, it will just be that they are not the same person as the first batch of people of Evil Luohai City ruled by the first generation of Ghost Mother."

Do not!

It should be said that if a human were to actually materialize, it would definitely not be the original individual, but rather the individual recognized in the memories of the first Ghost Mother!

A person's memory of others differs greatly from that person's own self-awareness.

At this point, Zhang Zhiwei frowned again, "But looking at the appearance of Evil Luo Sea City, it doesn't seem like the residents of Evil Luo Sea City back then were driven away by the Samsara Sect after being conjured up. Rather, it seems that those residents were never conjured up in the first place."

Hua Ling guessed, "Could it be that the first Ghost Mother didn't have any memories of the residents of Evil Luo Sea City?"

"It's also possible that the memory is very vague."

The old foreigner also offered his thoughts: "The Demon Kingdom has a history of at least tens of thousands of years, while the Reincarnation Sect and the Guge Dynasty have only been established for a little over a thousand years. The Reincarnation Sect dug out the head of the first Ghost Mother from the Crystal Free Mountain a little over a thousand years ago. And the first Ghost Mother had been sleeping in that tower for at least nine thousand years. It's not unreasonable that she forgot the memories of her people."

This sounds quite logical, since ordinary people's memories are easily blurred, but the first generation of the Ghost Mother was different from ordinary people, possessing a pair of boundless demonic eyes.

The eyes are essentially a tool for the brain to interact with the outside world. If the brain is not adequately equipped, no matter how unique a pair of eyes is, it is meaningless.

Therefore, the first generation of the Ghost Mother must have had the ability to remember everything she saw. She was able to remember the dead cows in the slaughterhouse, so how could she not remember her people?

In the eyes of the first generation Jiang Liu, there were only three possibilities.

The first possibility is that the human being created touched upon some mechanism of the bottomless ghost cave, resulting in their direct "sacrifice".

After all, even those who merely witness the illusion of the realm will be branded with the Demon Eye, become sacrifices, and have their iron elements absorbed from their bodies.

The second type is that the residents who appeared were the main members of the Samsara Sect and the Guge Dynasty.

This conjured city of Eroha can accommodate around 100,000 people, while the ruins of the Guge Kingdom can also accommodate around 100,000 people.

According to legend, the 100,000 inhabitants of the Guge Kingdom's main city vanished overnight...

If this legend is true, then it is highly likely that the original founders of the Samsara Sect dug out the Boundless Demon Eye and brain of the first Ghost Mother, used the Transformation of Realm to transform the inhabitants in the Ghost Mother's memories, and led them to establish the Samsara Sect and the Guge Dynasty.

However, these residents are ultimately illusions. Theoretically, unless the Ghost Mother takes action herself, they can continue to live as long as their bodies are not damaged.

They suddenly disappeared later, perhaps due to some unforeseen event.

The last remaining possibility is that, in the eyes of that first Ghost Mother, the people of the Demon Kingdom were insignificant, merely strings of numbers, not even worthy of being remembered, and not even comparable to the yaks being slaughtered in this slaughterhouse.

Thus, the people of the Samsara Sect used her eyes to conjure up the Evil Luo Sea City in her mind, and naturally, there would be no demonic citizens present.

# Chapter 1028 Crystal Ma's "Brain"

Regarding the three possibilities mentioned by Jiang Liu—

The first method, being sacrificed, is nothing special; it's a kind of "protective measure" for the bottomless ghost cave.

The second scenario involves individuals who, through illusion, become the core members of the Reincarnation Sect, becoming intertwined with the history of the Reincarnation Sect and the Guge Kingdom...

The possibility is extremely high!

If the Guge Dynasty were to seek the glory of the Demon Kingdom, it would most likely try to select a Demon Mother.

However, based on the ruins of the Guge Kingdom, the only way to infer its ruling style can be summed up in one sentence: it was a country ruled by religion.

Furthermore, although the Samsara school also draws on relevant forms of Tibetan Buddhism, it is the only school that does not have the concept of a "Buddha Mother".

Based on this premise, if we assume that the main body of the Samsara Sect and the 100,000 people who disappeared all originated from the Evil Luo Sea City, which was created by this realm, then they are the people of the Demon Kingdom in the memories of the first Ghost Mother.

As a ruler, her memories of the people of the Demon Kingdom are naturally imbued with the attribute of "loyalty," and they are only loyal to her, the first Demon Mother.

This also explains why the rule of the Samsara Sect and the Guge Dynasty was different from that of the Jingjue Ancient Kingdom, which was established by another branch of the Demon Kingdom's remnants.

According to this logically plausible deduction, the main members of the Samsara Sect are the citizens of Evil Luohai City from the memories of the first Ghost Mother. They are the loyal servants and fanatical believers of the first Ghost Mother. Even though they have absorbed some ideas from Tibetan Buddhism, because their power comes from the abyss, they cannot equate the Ghost Mother with the Buddha Mother from the bottom of their hearts.

Even though the "Buddha Mother" in Tibetan Buddhism does not refer to a specific person, but rather to Prajna wisdom or a consort, the Samsara school still cannot adopt this concept.

And the last third type—

That would be more realistic.

Comparing the dynasties of the Central Plains, which emperor of which dynasty or generation truly cared about the people?

They're just strings of numbers!

Let alone the entire city, the people on even a small street would probably be forgotten!

The first Demon Mother of the Demon Kingdom may also be like that.

Throughout history, regardless of rise and fall, it is always the common people who suffer. No one knows when this world will be at peace.

During his search for the Muchen Pearl, Partridge Whistle did not simply wander aimlessly in the deep mountains and forests. He also gained some understanding of the current state of the world, which made him feel the sentiment of "When the world prospers, the people suffer; when the world falls, the people suffer" even more deeply, hence his sigh.
