Capítulo 1517: Chapter 1518: Realm of Longevity People Seek Eternal Life
The three Spiritual Trees broke out in a cold sweat, trembling uncontrollably, until finally, their legs gave way and they couldn’t stand.
“This… is this still a person? How can there be such a powerful aura?”
They had sensed the aura of Immortal Realm experts before, but they had never felt an aura stronger than that of the Immortal Realm, so they were truly frightened for a moment.
Lin Yifan was also filled with fear. To be honest, the moment the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor appeared, he almost fell to his knees to worship. But fortunately, he had a streak of pride in his bones, or it would have been embarrassing.
“Haha! You three little things, weren’t you quite arrogant just now? How come you can’t even stand now?” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor asked mockingly.
“Immortal senior, forgive us. Earlier, we were blind and did not recognize Mount Tai, offending you. Please do not take offense.”
The three Spiritual Trees apologized one after another, not daring to be arrogant anymore.
“Haha, this is more like it.”
The Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor stroked his goatee and smiled kindly, then turned to Lin Yifan and asked, “Are you the one who collected the Seven-Colored Immortal Rings?”
“Reporting to the senior, I am,” Lin Yifan replied with courtesy.
“Indeed, there is some resemblance.”
The Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor stroked his goatee and nodded thoughtfully.
“What does senior mean by this? Could it be that I am truly a descendant of the Sun God?”
“My method of verification cannot be wrong. Only the bloodline of the Sun God can trigger the Yang Force,” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor answered.
“Yang Force? What kind of power is this?”
“Yang Force is a power formed by the condensation of Yang energy in the world, extremely firm and fierce, indestructible.”
“But, I have biological parents, how can I be a descendant of the Sun God?”
“Are you sure you are your parents’ biological child?” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor questioned.
“This…”
Lin Yifan was not very clear about it because he had never doubted that he wasn’t biologically related, so he had never asked his parents about his origin.
“If not sure, then you are one hundred percent a descendant of the Sun God,” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor responded.
“The Sun God’s mission is to save the Realm of Longevity?”
This is what he learned from the Golden-winged Roc.
The Golden-winged Roc said there was a homeland in a distant land, suffering immensely, desperately needing his aid. The truth of it was unknown.
“You could say that, they need you, and only you can resolve that crisis,” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor replied.
“Isn’t that place the Realm of Longevity? What more could the Cultivators there desire?” Lin Yifan asked.
“The Realm of Longevity is just a name given by the Cultivators of this world. Who can truly achieve longevity?”
Lin Yifan had thought this might be the case; in the world, there is no real longevity, and there never will be.
“What kind of disaster occurred there that only the Sun God’s descendant can save it?”
“In the Realm of Longevity, the search for immortality leads to the suffering of millions! This is a widely circulated saying among the folk there, and I believe you understand its meaning without me explaining,” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor answered.
“It seems, in any world, as long as one is a person, they wish for eternal life.”
“It’s good that you understand.”
“But is there really a way to achieve eternal life?”
Lin Yifan was extremely puzzled.
According to what he knew, the so-called method of longevity that the Cultivators in this world sought was obtaining the seven Immortal Rings, opening the Gate of Longevity, and entering the Realm of Longevity.
But this was merely a hope, a reliance, not any practical method.
He didn’t know what the Cultivators in the Realm of Longevity thought, if their views were the same as those here, he would laugh out loud.
“Have you heard of the story ‘Tai Chi Generates Two Instruments, Dual Polarity Generates Four Symbols, Four Symbols Generate Eight Trigrams’? It’s said that obtaining Tai Chi allows one to ignore the Great Dao Rules and enjoy longevity,” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor replied.
“Tai Chi? Tai Chi was born before heaven and earth opened, before chaos divided into Yin and Yang. Now that heaven and earth have opened, chaos is divided into Yin and Yang, how can we reverse time and seek Tai Chi?”
Lin Yifan had heard this story, and the Wudang Sect Leader seemed to have used this move in the recent war to deal with him.
He just thought the notion of the Cultivators in the Realm of Longevity was laughable because it was impossible to achieve.
“But in the Realm of Longevity, it is possible.”
The Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor revealed a shocking secret, overturning Lin Yifan’s understanding.
“What do you mean by this?”
“The Realm of Longevity is an extremely unstable world, capable of reverting to a chaotic state at any moment, or stabilizing just as easily.”
“Is there really such a world? That’s strange.”
This was beyond Lin Yifan’s expectations. If it was truly as the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor said, then the Path of Longevity could possibly be realized. No wonder the powerful Cultivators of that world would go to any length to seek Tai Chi.
“However, I personally oppose this approach. Many strong practitioners with normal ideology, including myself, share this understanding,” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor said.
“Oh? Why so?”
“When the world reverts to the Tai Chi state, nothing remains, all life ceases, equating to the massacre of countless lives. This method is too bloody, unacceptable, and there’s no guarantee it would even succeed,” the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor answered.
“Indeed, the decision of whether or not to pursue longevity shouldn’t be made this way. Perhaps, above Tai Chi, there are deities.”
“It’s reassuring that you think this way. In the past, the Sun God gave up his precious life to save billions in the Realm of Longevity.”
The Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor was pleased, feeling that his effort in coming to this low-spiritual-energy world was not in vain, for seeking the Sun God’s descendant.
“Who was his adversary?”
“A terrifying organization, almost unbeatable anyone.”
“That frightening?”
“When you reach the Realm of Longevity, you’ll know.”
“Can I choose not to go?” Lin Yifan tentatively asked.
“Are you afraid of death?”
“You could understand it that way. After all, I’m not the Sun God. I’m just an ordinary Cultivator on this planet, with family and a girlfriend who need my care. I cannot leave them,” Lin Yifan replied.
“Everyone’s waiting for you, yet…sigh!”
The Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor appeared frustrated, wanting to scold Lin Yifan, yet unable to bring himself to do so.
“Senior, I’m sorry! Truly sorry!”
Lin Yifan looked apologetic, unable to bear the burden of being unkind, disloyal, and unfilial.
If he were an orphan, without a girlfriend, perhaps he would go to the Realm of Longevity without hesitation, to save the world.
“Alright, I won’t force you. After all, you are no longer the Sun God of the past, unafraid of life and death, caring for all creatures, revered by all. Keep the Seven-Colored Immortal Rings, and when you change your mind, let me know, and I will open the Gate of Longevity for you, helping you step into the Realm of Longevity.”
