Chapter 484 - People Cannot Become Immortals Without Going to the Spirit World (1/2)
People can feel the mystery of Huaxia easily from the language of Huaxia.
For example, the word “Jie” can be used both as a noun and a verb. There are many interpretations for “Jie” as a noun. The “Jie” Lin Luoran mentioned before is cultivators’ division of a certain special realm.
It’s like Dragon Palace, the Secret Territory Bermuda, and Mount Penglai. They all have one node connected to the Earth. In fact, they are some integrated and self-contained communities. The border situation determines how much these places may be affected by the Earth environment.
The world of cultivation is special. It has always existed on the earth. Only cultivators’ regions are distinguished from mortals regions and become “Jie”.
“Talking about where Divinized Cultivators go, we have to start from the beginning…”
The kitchen is very busy. Some young people are making food while laughing. Lin Luoran and Liao sit in the living room with a pot of tea and two plates of snacks. Liao is slowly relating the story. His historical mystery is revealed in front of Lin Luoran for the first time.
Liao woke up in an ancient tomb.
That was the Xia Dynasty in Huaxia’s history. Liao awakened from an ancient tomb suspending in mid-air. He had forgotten all his history. To be specific, it’s not a tomb but a relic suspending above clouds. Liao crawled out of such a pile of broken bricks which were once magnificent.
He woke up without any personal ability or memory. He only vaguely remembered that he had a name, “Blue Waves”. Liao rummaged around the clouds and found some broken but useful things. He also found some Jade Maps. However, because he didn’t have any spiritual mind, he couldn’t read the information. Liao was very annoyed. He found a piece of inscription under a three-legged cauldron. Fortunately, he lost his memory but could still read the words. He tried his best to translate them and finally knew where he was.
“It turns out that the place where I woke up is actually the immortal world.” Liao blinks his eyes. He also doesn’t quite believe it even after thousands of years.
Lin Luoran looks strange when she heard that Liao woke up from the broken palace on the cloud. Hearing what Liao says, she spews a mouth of tea.
The immortal world? Isn’t Liao waking up in the immortal world… as an immortal?
In Lin Luoran’s impression, the man in robe is qualified to be an immortal. Maybe a little worse, immortal should be like cyan Phoenix that she met in Penglai. How can Liao be an immortal?
Seeing her expression, Liao touches his nose and feels kind of annoyed. He snorts softly, turns his head aside, and continues.
It’s the immortal world. But according to the words on cauldron, where Liao woke up was just a small corner of the vast immortal world. The heaven and the earth were in great calamity and the immortal world has collapsed. All G.o.ds and Buddhas have already migrated. The place where he was is just a relic that had been abandoned. It was truly no different from the tomb which he had thought it was at the beginning.
“True immortals have left. Before they left, they still had consciences. They opened up the spiritual world with great holy spells and chose Qi-trainers with superior qualifications to fill that world. If those Qi-trainers can achieve Tao, they will open the channel when they become immortals. They can follow the traces of the ancient immortals and the path which the G.o.ds and Buddhas in heaven had taken.”
Lin Luoran frowns upon hearing the ancient secrets, “Choosing Qi-trainers with superior qualifications to fill the spiritual world? They just abandoned cultivators on the earth in this way? ”
Liao glares at her, “Don’t interrupt. I haven’t talked about it yet.”
After Liao read the words on the cauldron, he clarified his thought. With some hard work, he left the relic after getting something. Across the node connecting two worlds, he dropped into the waters.
It was the middle of the Xia Dynasty. Lin Luoran is also familiar with where Liao fell. It’s the waters of Dongting.
“Well, don’t judge a book by its cover. The dragon nationality was also a part of the immortal world. When I was there, the whole Dragon Palace has been emptied long ago. Only Jade Map was left there to ‘take over’ the Dragon Palace. It was really annoying.”
Liao’s anger was not only because the Dragon King had run away and left him an empty sh.e.l.l. He had lost his personal ability and even could not use his spiritual mind. How could he understand the Jade Map?
“Then how did you enter the Dragon Palace?”
Without the personal ability and spiritual mind, how could the Dragon Palace take Liao in?
