Chapter 1166: Chapter 1166: Verify Identity
“The character ‘仙’ represents a person and a mountain. A person walks towards the mountain, wanting to be as tall as the heavens; it speaks of those who seek higher realms, understanding the true essence of the universe,” Shi Zhongqing said slowly.
“Does that an that all practitioners could be called immortals?” Lin Shen asked.
“It’s different. Ordinary practitioners focus on the known, while those cultivating immortality focus on the unknown,” Shi Zhongqing shook his head and said.
Lin Shen imdiately understood Shi Zhongqing’s aning. A divine being’s cultivation pursues advancent from lower to middle, and then from middle to upper, even those desiring to beco a Great Emperor are elevating themselves within known levels.
However, the pursuit of immortality is focused on the unknown, on fields never touched by others. Their purposes and ultimate realms differ.
“The universal laws of the cosmos have long been established; transcending them isn’t easy. Thus, not all of humanity can be called immortals. Even if soone comprehends powers and laws never understood by others, these abilities are not newly created but preexisting in the universe. Only the First Immortal is a completely novel existence, one that the cosmos never had before.”
“What kind of existence is that?”
“A fusion of a human and a smart brain,” Shi Zhongqing said slowly, “The First Immortal is no longer purely human but is a new species, a fusion of two different forms of life. The traits he possesses have never existed before.”
“Can humans really rge with smart brains?” Lin Shen still found it sowhat inconceivable.
“If it weren’t possible, the First Immortal wouldn’t exist,” Shi Zhongqing sighed and said. “A human with the computational capability of a super intelligent brain, while also possessing human evolution ability, breaking through its own evolutionary barriers with the aid of a smart brain, and the smart brain acquiring human evolutionary ability, will evolve endlessly. In theory, a being with infinite computational ability and an infinitely evolving body is the ultimate form of cosmic life.”
Lin Shen thought for a mont. A human brain possessing the computational power of a smart brain was already extrely monstrous.
If this brain could evolve infinitely, then when it beca strong enough, would it not be able to calculate and control everything in the universe? The thought alone was terrifying.
What was more terrifying was that the body also possessed the power of an undying immortal, able to devour everything to evolve itself, making it the greatest bug in the universe.
“The First Immortal was nearly perfect, but there was a fatal issue. This issue might not be a problem for him, but for other life in the universe, it was a disaster.”
Shi Zhongqing paused before continuing, “As the First Immortal’s brain evolves, his humanity would gradually fade, behaving like a smart brain, acting solely according to rules. As the brain evolved, it continuously perfected its self-rules, leading to a serious issue, the inherent unreasonableness of humanity.”
Lin Shen understood Shi Zhongqing’s point. Human existence itself involves continuous resource plundering, occupying resources beyond its survival needs, and this need is endless.
If the First Immortal’s brain followed laws to an infinite extent, then for him, everyone would be breaking the laws, contradicting them. Hence, the First Immortal would inevitably cleanse humanity.
Now Lin Shen finally understood why Shi Zhongqing said that if the undying immortal phenonon was triggered by the First Immortal, it would be impossible to lead him towards good because good, in the undying immortal’s logic, couldn’t hold ground.
Of course, perhaps it was never about being good at all.
But as far as Lin Shen was concerned, there was nothing wrong with that.
“Had the First Immortal evolved to that extent back then? How did he reincarnate?” Lin Shen curiously asked.
“He hadn’t evolved to that extent back then; these are just derived results. Whether it would have developed to such a case can’t be said for sure. At that ti, the First Immortal only wanted to destroy the Celestial Court, establishing a so-called fair world, giving everyone freedom.”
Before Lin Shen could ask further, Shi Zhongqing continued, “At that ti, the First Immortal’s own consciousness and the fusion with the smart brain hadn’t reached a perfect level, with so tiny flaws. He could be defeated and forced to reincarnate because of those minor flaws. Hopefully, his reincarnation didn’t solve this problem because if it did, that would indeed be a huge trouble.”
Inwardly contemplating, Lin Shen felt that Ouyang Yudu should not be the reincarnation body of the First Immortal.
Although Ouyang Yudu’s thoughts were sowhat unusual, they were still within the normal range of human beings. The First Immortal, as a fusion of human and smart brain, would certainly think differently from humans.
To be honest, Lin Shen felt that Tie was more like the reincarnation body of the First Immortal, maybe even Wei was more like it than Ouyang Yudu.
“Now the crucial thing is to find the person who triggered the undying immortal phenonon and determine if he is the reincarnation body of the First Immortal. If not, we can help him grow, evolving as quickly as possible to the ultimate state, to lock him with the undying immortal. This way, even if the reincarnation body of the First Immortal returns, without the infinite devouring ability of the undying immortal, he would lack the energy to evolve infinitely, and dealing with him wouldn’t be so complicated,” Shi Zhongqing said solemnly.
“How can soone determine if he is the reincarnation body of the First Immortal?” Lin Shen wanted to test Ouyang to see if he was the reincarnation body of the First Immortal.
Although Lin Shen thought it highly unlikely, it was still safer to test.
“Permissions. The First Immortal had the sa permissions as the Star Constellation Sea. Before being granted any permissions by the Star God Palace, he could use the permissions of all the smart brains in the Celestial Court, and even the Star Constellation Sea itself.”
“Wouldn’t that make him like the Great Emperor?”
“In theory, the First Immortal is the Great Emperor. His smart brain was infinitely evolving, at that ti having evolved to an extrely high level, even surpassing the Star Constellation Sea, so calling him the Great Emperor wouldn’t be inaccurate.”
After leaving the Star God Palace, Lin Shen returned directly to the Crystal Charm Star.
“Wait a bit, the al will be ready soon,” Ouyang Yudu was cooking, cleaning the vegetables and preparing them on the cutting board.
Looking at Ouyang Yudu, wearing an apron like a house-husband, Lin Shen couldn’t believe he could be the reincarnation body of the First Immortal.
In no ti, Ouyang Yudu brought out several delicious dishes, took out a bottle of yellow wine, poured a cup for Lin Shen, and another for himself.
After the al and wine, Lin Shen told Ouyang Yudu everything he heard from Shi Zhongqing, including the thod to verify whether he was the reincarnation body of the First Immortal.
Ouyang laughed and said, “So, I’m definitely not the reincarnation body of the First Immortal; I’m not so rigid and emotionless.”
“You have a communicator that requires permissions, right? Give it to ,” Ouyang smiled and reached out his hand.
Lin Shen handed over the communicator issued by the Star God Palace to Ouyang. This exclusive communicator required the identity of the Star Constellation Master to unlock and use.
Ouyang took the communicator, began operating it as if it was nothing.
Lin Shen also didn’t take it seriously, but when Ouyang’s finger touched the screen, it lit up directly. Ouyang Yudu hadn’t realized the seriousness of the issue, thinking it was ant to be like this, casually tapping the address book, which opened imdiately.
For a mont, both of them were stunned as if the air itself had frozen.
