"Cultivators of the world?" Li Fan’s body shook, as if he had thought of sothing.
"After the Celestial Dharma Bearer defied the Principle of Heaven and Earth and established the New thod, all cultivators in the world must practice according to the New thod. Theoretically speaking, from now on, no matter how talented or gifted a cultivator is, it’s absolutely impossible for them to break out of the frawork set by the Law Transmission."
"They are destined to be eternally suppressed by the Law Transmission. In a sense, for the Xuanhuang Cultivators, the Law Transmission is an invincible existence." Yin Shangren seed to be in an odd ntal state as he spoke in fits and starts.
anwhile, a scene suddenly erged in front of Li Fan.
A figure in white robes, looking up to the sky with a sigh, "Before us is a path to immortality we cannot tread, with the Celestial Dharma Bearer above us!"
"But he, at the cost of his own life, created a possibility for the Xuanhuang Cultivators. A possibility that could threaten the Celestial Dharma Bearer." Yin Shangren paused for a mont, and then continued.
"As Immortal Sovereigns of longevity, although their strength and combat power might be much greater than that of the Celestial Dharma Bearer, their rank is actually the sa. Since the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma can cause him fatal harm, by the sa token..."
"The Immortal-Ordinary Miasma could also seriously injure or even kill the Celestial Dharma Bearer!" Yin Shangren’s voice suddenly rose a bit, becoming sowhat excited.
"After the Great Calamity, the Celestial Dharma Bearer has almost disappeared from the world. Even after re-establishing the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals, he rarely makes an appearance. Who knows if this isn’t a factor? Because he’s afraid too! Haha!"
Yin Shangren’s deanor grew increasingly frenzied.
"It’s not only that he found a way for the cultivators to kill the Celestial Dharma Bearer, but he also pointed out a path that can utterly break the Law Transmission! After all, relying solely on the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma to try to kill the Celestial Dharma Bearer..."
"Although it’s possible, the chances of success are too low, too low."
"But the thod he pointed out to break down the Law Transmission’s order is indeed absolutely feasible!" Overco with emotion, Yin Shangren suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
"Since the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma can beco one of the Celestial Dharma Bearer’s weaknesses, why not create more weaknesses? As long as there is a strong enough being who has verified the Immortal Realm and is willing to sacrifice themselves..."
"The flaws in the Law Transmission will inevitably beco more and more. One day, it will be full of holes, ready to burst at a single poke!"
Yin Shangren’s eyes bulged wide.
"As long as others are willing to sacrifice themselves like he did..."
Upon hearing this, Li Fan fell silent.
To expect all people to have such awareness...
It really is asking too much.
One is the carefree existence of immortality and longevity, the other is the gamble of one’s life for a future that might be elusive...
Any normal person knows what to choose.
But he, after all, is not a common man.
Yin Shangren sneered, "For thousands of years in Xuanhuang, there has not been a second cultivator who has done this."
"They all deserve to die! All of them..."
Li Fan consoled, "Yin Daoist friend, don’t be too extre."
However, Yin Shangren ignored Li Fan, and even the look in his eyes slowly beca sowhat hostile as he spoke: "What do you know?"
He took out the white rib from his chest, full of disdain, and said, "I know that the cultivators of the world all cherish their own lives. How many people have chosen the path of cultivation precisely because they fear death?"
"But how can your lives compare to his?"
"He... he..."
Blood trickled from Yin Shangren’s eyes suddenly: "He was originally the Immortal Sovereign of longevity!"
This statent struck Li Fan’s Divine Soul like a thunderbolt.
Despite his composure, he couldn’t help but exclaim, "What?"
"He was originally the Immortal Sovereign? What does that an?"
Li Fan quickly asked.
"What does it an? The literal aning. Before the disappearance of the Ancient thod, the last one who obtained the power of longevity from Heaven and Earth and confird immortality was the Ancient Immortal Sovereign of longevity!" said Yin Shangren, word by word.
"Only the bone of the Ancient Heavenly Lord would be capable of such feats, as if it has received the Creation from Heaven and Earth..."
While speaking, Yin Shangren caressed the rib bone obsessively.
Then his gaze suddenly beca filled with ominous intent as he stared at Li Fan.
After a tense mont, Yin Shangren suddenly looked up at the sky, his eyes uncertain and full of confusion.
At the sa ti, he muttered to himself, "Moreover, he’s different from those thieves. The longevity he attained was actively bestowed by the world."
"He clearly could have just left this place..."
Li Fan didn’t startle him and silently recorded everything that Yin Shangren said.
"Ancient Law of Immortality? And a unique Realm of Longevity at that."
"No wonder his performance at both the Beast Taming Sect and the Heavenly Sword Sect was so invincible."
"But what exactly turned him into the Immortal Realm?"
"Or could it be that when he ascended to heaven that year, he didn’t just transform from Mortal to God Transformation Realm."
"But in one breath, transford from Mortal to the Immortal Sovereign of longevity?"
Li Fan found this sowhat ludicrous.
Such progression is truly unprecedented and unparalleled!
"If this is really the case, then it’s just too ridiculous."
"Even if he were highly favored by the Heavenly Dao, he shouldn’t be treated like this."
"He’s not just a favored son of Heaven, he’s treated almost as if he was their own father."
"Could it be, in his past life, he saved the Xuanhuang World…"
As he pondered, a thought suddenly appeared in Li Fan’s spirit consciousness, unbidden.
He was slightly startled.
"No... could it be?"
He swiftly sorted through his thoughts, but the speculation in his heart only beca clearer.
Both were perfect beings.
Both cared deeply for the living beings of the Xuanhuang World.
The King of Mystic Sky disappeared without a trace.
Years later, another mortal was born in the world.
A mortal intensely favored by the Heavenly Dao, even to an absurd extent.
All these facts, when linked together, vaguely ford an answer.
Li Fan couldn’t help but think, "Could it be…"
"Mr. Bai is the reincarnation of the King of Mystic Sky?"
Indeed, the appearance of the skull after it was restored was exactly the sa as Mr. Bai’s.
And the reason why it was passed around in the world that the first cultivator infected with the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma had the surna Su...
That was because...
Li Fan involuntarily recalled the scene he witnessed in the Fallen Immortal Realm long ago.
"The dog is but a discarded defective good. If it weren’t for Little White…"
The blond Lu Ya was explaining to Li Fan when soone kicked him hard from behind.
Afterwards, he patted his backside, looking sowhat embarrassed.
Lu Ya hurriedly corrected himself, "If it hadn’t been for [Mr. Bai] to treat him, that dog would have probably lost its life long ago."
…
Indeed, the reason why Mr. Bai was called such was because the orphans of Ningyuan City, upon hearing the na "Little White," gave him this term of respect.
Perhaps, they weren’t too clear about the real na of the best person in the world.
And given Mr. Bai’s personality, even if he knew this was a misunderstanding by the children, he probably wouldn’t stop or correct them.
As long as the kids were happy.
After all, the na Mr. Bai sounded quite pleasant.
"Su Bai…"
"So that is his na."
"To seek longevity through the Ancient thod, contrary to the Principle of Heaven and Earth, and then to achieve it again through the New thod."
"I originally thought no one in the world could accomplish this, but I never expected…"
Li Fan then rembered the conversation he had overheard between Sun Qi and Sun Liancheng.
"The more one is favored by Heaven and Earth, the harder it is to go against the Principle of Heaven and Earth."
"The backlash faced will be deeper."
"Under such circumstances, he still managed to go against the Principle of Heaven and Earth…"
Li Fan fell into a deeper silence.
His thoughts churned endlessly, and he didn’t know how much ti had passed.
The anomaly before his eyes snapped Li Fan back to reality.
On Yin Shangren’s body, there was a strange energy fluctuation.
Li Fan could also see that Yin Shangren’s current state was very abnormal.
There seed to be the possibility of him going berserk at any mont.
But in this state, he seed to be able to peer into the many secrets between Heaven and Earth, revealing the past life and present life of the owner of the rib.
"Why? Why?"
In pain, Yin Shangren clutched his head, and a vertical line in the center of his body slowly beca apparent.
It looked like it would split open at any ti.
Li Fan discreetly moved a little further away.
In agony, Yin Shangren rolled on the ground, and Li Fan faintly heard explosions coming from the secret room beneath Yin Ying Island, where countless bodies of Yin Shangren were kept.
Vibrations and a faint humming continued without end.
After an indeterminate period, Yin Shangren suddenly leapt up, his face filled with excitent, "I know now!"
