C1384 Immortal King
C1384 Immortal King
"You are worthy of praise for being able to find these clues. As for your question just now, it is because I thought that Immortals shouldn't exist in the past. Endless lifespan will only destroy the cycle of karma and reincarnation, so I want to completely eradicate this unreasonable existence of immortals. " The Goddess finally took the initiative to speak for the first time.
Her words had also verified Jie Zimo's deduction. It was only because of one person's opinion that the Goddess had destroyed the Primordial Era just like that.
"Since the Primordial Era has already been destroyed, why did you summon the Immortal Mountain back to the Primordial Era? Didn't you want to put an end to the emergence of Immortals?" Chu Tian said with a frown.
"Even now, I still think that Immortals shouldn't exist. That would only destroy the law of karma and reincarnation. However, the truth isn't that I want the Primordial Era to reappear. All of this is karma." The Goddess said.
"You mean to say that it isn't the clues you spread in the three thousand worlds? Then who exactly arranged all of this?" Jie Zimo said with a frown.
The Goddess turned to look at Chu Tian. When she noticed his gaze, Jie Zimo also looked at Chu Tian with a puzzled expression.
"Goddess, are you joking with me? Are you trying to say that all of this was arranged by Chu Tian? This is ridiculous. I have entrusted my life to him for so many years. I know his experiences and encounters like the back of my hand. Furthermore, his lifespan is merely a thousand years. How could he possibly complete such a plan? "Jie Zimo laughed wildly, as if he was mocking a goddess.
"Since you keep saying that you understand this person, do you know that he is someone who has transcended the cycle of karma and reincarnation? Throughout the ages, he is the only one who has transcended the cycle of reincarnation. Chu Tian, you won't deny this fact, right?" The Goddess said.
Chu Tian frowned. It was true that this secret had been hidden in his heart for many years. Even Chu Yunxue didn't know about it, but what he didn't understand was... Why did this goddess in front of him know the secret in his heart?
"I remember that you said that even Immortals can't transcend reincarnation. Are you saying that Chu Tian can do it so easily?" Jie Zimo said with a frown.
If these words were spoken by someone else, Jie Zimo would naturally look down on them. However, the one who said this was the Goddess. In Jie Zimo's eyes, the Goddess was a mysterious and powerful existence. There must be a reason behind the latter's words.
"I have said it before. Even Immortals can't transcend the cycle of reincarnation. However, this Chu Tian in front of me is a man who has transcended the cycle of reincarnation. Although you are called Chu Tian, you are still a man who has transcended the cycle of reincarnation. I clearly remember that in the past, in the Immortal King Palace... Your name is Taiyi." The Goddess said.
Upon hearing the name of the Goddess, Chu Tian felt a chaotic voice in his mind.
"I admit that I have reincarnated and restarted my cultivation, but I am still Chu Tian in my previous life. I have no recollection of the 'Taiyi' you mentioned." Chu Tian said.
The Goddess revealed a thoughtful expression, and then she came to a realization.
"So that's how it is. Even though you have transcended the cycle of reincarnation... You said that you remember the memories of your previous reincarnation. However, that does not exist. No one can transcend the cycle of reincarnation. Not even Immortals could do that, even if they didn't know who Medicine King was in your memory. But it's impossible for him to transcend the cycle of reincarnation. I think it was Taiyi who brought you out of the cycle of reincarnation. You are both Taiyi and Chu Tian." The Goddess said.
"Goddess, don't you think your words are too ridiculous? Then who is this Taiyi you are talking about? Why is he able to transcend this reincarnation?" Jie Zimo said disdainfully. Obviously, he didn't take her words seriously.
"He has already surpassed the category of Immortals. He is a true Immortal King." The Goddess said with a nostalgic expression.
"Immortal King? Wasn't that your lie at that time?" Chu Tian looked at the Goddess in puzzlement.
"It's both a lie and not a lie. If I can't create enough bait, then... Why did those Immortals fall for it? I met Taiyi back then. His strength has transcended worldliness and has surpassed that of immortals. I told him my determination. I never thought that his determination would be the same as mine. But now that I think about it... I'm afraid that Taiyi didn't agree with my will at that time. It's just that he doesn't care about the matters of the world anymore. That's why he gave his immortal mountain to me and used his own will to pass through the cycle of reincarnation. " The Goddess said.
Chu Tian and Jie Zimo couldn't believe that it was a lie when they heard the mysterious story of the Goddess. After all, fabricating a story at this time wasn't very useful.
"You've talked so much, and how are you going to prove all of this? How can there be a true Immortal King in this world?" Jie Zimo said.
"If you don't believe me, give up that seat. Chu Tian, you can sit on it. This immortal mountain is originally a supreme treasure. If you take the seat of Immortal King, the immortal mountain will surely resonate with you." The Goddess said.
Chu Tian silently stared at the seat of the Immortal King, then at the Goddess. His heart was filled with confusion. How could he transcend reincarnation? He had never been able to understand why he was able to reincarnate.
It was very likely that he had already gotten the answer, but there was an inexplicable worry in his heart.
"Goddess, you said that the reappearance of the Immortal Mountain wasn't your doing, but I don't think that it was me who did it." Chu Tian said.
"You might not have done it, but since Taiyi passed reincarnation, then the cause and effect of the world can be changed because of him. This represents the karma of Taiyi. The immortal mountain is currently searching for its own master. " The Goddess said.
Chu Tian's eyes shifted to the position of Immortal King once more. If what Goddess said was true... After sitting on the Immortal King Throne, he would become an Immortal King. However, he was worried whether he would still be Chu Tian or be replaced by Taiyi.
"Goddess, this isn't the result you want to see. Tell me all of this. What is your purpose?" Chu Tian stared at the Goddess and said with a frown.
"It's true that this isn't what I want to see, but that year, for my own purpose, I chose the reincarnation of the Ultimate One Sect. If this is karma, then I am just fulfilling my karma." The Goddess said.
At this moment, Jie Zimo's body was emitting a murderous aura. His sharp eyes were staring at Chu Tian.
"Immortal Kings are above all immortals. If there isn't an Immortal King, then... Immortal King, you are above all immortals. If there isn't an Immortal King, then the heavens and earth will allow me to roam freely. As long as I kill you, who else in this world can be my match?" Jie Zimo's killing intent was directed at Chu Tian.
He had already chosen to believe the Goddess's words. Even if he didn't believe her, he had to prepare for the worst. As long as Chu Tian was dealt with, there wouldn't be any threat left.
"Do you think you can pass me?" The Goddess stared at Jie Zimo with a sharp gaze.
"Goddess, you are underestimating me too much. I have traveled three thousand worlds. What I have seen and learned is far beyond your imagination. Although you have lived for a long time, right now, you and I are both immortals. What reason do I have to not be a match for you? Immortal Bestowal!" Jie Zimo said.
A golden book floated above the Immortal King Palace. Under the golden light, the Goddess was unable to move, and the golden chains had locked her body.
"Immortal Sealing Technique! Why do you know this technique?" The Goddess was surprised.
"Like I said, I've traveled through three thousand worlds. This Immortal Seal Technique was obtained by chance in Small Boundless World. It's perfect to deal with you. Even an immortal wouldn't be able to escape after being struck by the Immortal Sealing Art. This period of time is enough for me to deal with this Chu Tian. " Jie Zimo said with a sneer.
At this moment, Jie Zimo launched an attack at Chu Tian. With his strength and experience, he was much stronger than Chu Tian. In a short period of time, Jie Zimo would be able to take Chu Tian's life.
As for the Goddess, she just watched this scene coldly, as if she wasn't worried at all.
Just as Jie Zimo was about to hit Chu Tian, a huge golden palm pressed down from above the Immortal King Palace. Jie Zimo was slammed into the palace, and he couldn't move at all.
As for your Immortal Sealing Technique, it has already disappeared, and the chains on the Goddess's body have also disappeared. Under this golden palm, Jie Zimo struggled with all his might. However, it was useless. A trace of fear was revealed in his eyes. After that, he raised his head and looked above the Immortal King Palace.
A figure appeared above the Immortal King Palace, and the owner of the figure was actually the same face as Chu Tian. However, there was something different about this person. His eyes were completely empty. It was as if he couldn't see anything in this world.
When the Goddess saw the latter, she bowed respectfully.
"Taiyi, is this your arrangement after all?" The Goddess asked.
Chu Tian also looked at this person. He was afraid that this person was the Immortal King Taiyi, the one who had helped him reincarnate.
"As I said, I don't have any attachment to the world. This isn't my karma. It's the karma of this man named Chu Tian. When he handed over the Immortal Mountain, I have already said that I won't ask about anything else. " Taiyi's voice was heard.
"Even after such a long period of time has passed, you still don't have any regrets?" The Goddess sighed helplessly.
Taiyi chose to remain silent. At this moment, Chu Tian couldn't help but walk forward.
"You're the one who helped me reincarnate?" Chu Tian asked doubtfully.
"I have no intention of helping you. It was you who broke the cycle of reincarnation. I was only borrowed by you. Now, you have nothing to do with me. If you want to take the power of this immortal mountain, then take it. I have long fallen into the cycle of reincarnation. You don't have to care about my existence. " Taiyi.
"Are you kidding me? After you became an Immortal King, you said that you saw through life and death. Then why did you become an Immortal King? Why did you treat the position of Immortal King as a joke? I refuse to accept this. What exactly did I seek for?" Jie Zimo roared furiously.
Taiyi cast a glance at Jie Zimo, then clenched his fist. Jie Zimo was pulled by his palm, bit by bit, towards an unknown void.
"You will enter the reincarnation with me. What's the point of searching for an Immortal King with such a cliché name?" Taiyi muttered to himself.
Jie Zimo roared furiously, but he was still unable to break through this predicament. In the end, Jie Zimo and Taiyi disappeared without a trace.
The Goddess looked at Chu Tian once more. Her eyes didn't contain the slightest emotion.
"What is your decision now?" The Goddess asked.
"I'm going to take this immortal mountain away. If this immortal mountain exists, then the people of the world will surely continue to fight for the position of Immortal King. From today onwards, the name of Immortal King will disappear, and Immortal King Palace will no longer exist." Chu Tiandao said.
"If this is your choice, then let's do it this way. The changes in the world have nothing to do with me anymore. Perhaps the best choice is to be like Taiyi." The Goddess said.
After that, the Goddess left Immortal King Palace. Now, there was only Chu Tian left in Immortal King Palace. Chu Tian walked to the throne of Immortal King Palace and slowly sat down.
Ten thousand years passed in the blink of an eye. Now, no one remembered the Immortal King Palace anymore. The ancient times welcomed the golden age of cultivation. The footprints of immortals once again appeared on the ground, and it became possible for one to become an immortal.
Currently, above the nine heavens, a green phoenix was traveling in the sky with a man and a woman.
"Chu Lang, I wonder how Meng Chen and Ji Han are doing now?" Chu Yunxue asked.
"Now that they have achieved immortality and commanded thousands of Demon Beasts in the Grand Ancient Domain, their days should be very free. This ancient land is incomparably vast. We still need to continue patrolling to avoid the war between the Immortals." Chu Tiandao.
Chu Yunxue glanced at Chu Tian. After inheriting the Immortal Mountain... After becoming an Immortal King, Chu Tian vowed to use this power to defend the ancient land. Today, ten thousand years had passed, just like what they had done. No matter how much time they spent, they would still be like this. They would protect the peace of the ancient land.
