Li Chengfei was lying on the couch covered with a quilt, with a wet towel on his forehead.
In front of the bed, there was a room full of people, and everyone had a look of sadness on their faces.
"Everything in the world sprouts and grows, and the length of life varies greatly. The morning fungus does not know the beginning and end of the month, and the chilling cicada does not know spring and autumn. This is a short life. There is a big tree called Ming Ling in the south of Chu State.
Five hundred years is spring and five hundred years is autumn. In ancient times, there was a tree called Dachun. Eight thousand years was spring and eight thousand years was autumn. This is longevity. The eight hundred-year-old Peng Zu has been rumored to be the longevity star...
…It’s a pity that I have devoted everything in my life to the pursuit of longevity, but my life span is only eighty-three years!”
Li Chengfei's face was gloomy, and his tone was weak with endless regret.
"I have been lucky enough to see an immortal with my own eyes. He is so elegant and independent, and his grace is really fascinating. Although I am as rich as a country and enjoy all the glory in my life, but so what? In the end, I am not as happy as the most ordinary immortal!"
Li Chengfei's eyes were blurred. As he lay dying, the entire life was like a movie, with each memory fragment flashing through his mind quickly.
He is a time traveler. About sixty years ago, his soul passed through the body of a young villager. When he first came here, he looked at the surrounding huts, everyone was wearing coarse cloth and rags, and the surroundings had a primitive style. He thought he had traveled through time.
Ancient.
Later, I gradually learned that this was a different world called the Dali Dynasty, and that there were immortals in this world.
Becoming an immortal was simply too tempting for him as a time traveler. He did not hesitate to pursue immortality and immortality as his first goal.
Unfortunately, this is not that easy.
An immortal miasma once broke out in this world, and all mortals were infected with the disease. This immortal miasma did not harm mortals, but after being infected, the path to immortality was cut off.
But once an immortal is contaminated, his or her cultivation level will at least decline, or at worst, he will return to heaven.
The immortal miasma is so powerful that it can be transmitted through the air without contact, as long as the distance is slightly closer.
Originally, the immortal and mortal realms were on the same side of the world with connected roads, and immortals and mortals lived together. Mortals respected immortals, and mortals with good qualifications or strong backgrounds would always have the opportunity to practice and become immortals.
After the outbreak of Immortal Mortal Miasma, the immortals did not take it seriously at first. However, as the immortals fell on a large scale, even those who cultivated to the sky were not immune, and panic began to spread.
Immortal miasma is very weird and only spreads among mortals. Immortals will be extremely harmful to themselves after being infected, but it will not spread again.
Some immortals advocate using extreme measures to kill all mortals and exterminate them in order to end the immortal miasma.
At first, most of the immortals were opposed to it, thinking it was too terrifying and cruel! Most of the immortals were born from mortals, and there were even their descendants among mortals.
At the same time, mortals are also the foundation of the fairy world. Every year, people with outstanding talents are selected to embark on the path of cultivating immortals; or they do some basic work for the immortals, such as mining resources, planting spiritual food and herbs, etc. This provides a demographic dividend for the fairy world.
However, the immortal miasma lasts longer and longer, spreads wider and wider, and there is no sign of its end. More and more immortals lose their patience and become irritable.
Some people began to act recklessly, massacring mortals and exterminating cities. But with the massive death of mortals, not only did the immortal miasma not disappear, but the miasma drifted out from the corpses, filled the air, and never disappeared.
So much so that the entire human world is filled with immortal miasma. In order to avoid the immortal miasma, some powerful people have banned circulation in various places, and have been in seclusion in the forbidden areas of their sects. They do not come into contact with anyone, and do not let anyone get close. They are also inexplicably infected.
Yu Tian......
Only then did the immortals realize that killing all the mortals would not only not solve the immortal miasma, but would actually cause the immortal miasma to break out completely.
Mortals are not the body that breeds immortal miasma, but the carriers that accommodate immortal miasma.
After understanding this, the immortals were almost desperate.
Finally, the six major immortal cultivating sects came together and finally came up with a plan to gather all the immortal cultivating experts to cut off the road between the immortal and mortal worlds; almost all resources were consumed, and a large formation was set up to tear the two worlds apart.
.
From then on, immortality and mortal world were separated forever. The miasma was so rampant in the mortal world that immortals did not dare to set foot in it. Mortals were even less qualified to set foot in the immortal world.
In order to prevent the birth of strong men among mortals, the immortals made a fool of themselves and destructively plundered the resources of the mortal world before leaving, destroying all the secrets of cultivating immortals.
If a mortal wants to cultivate immortality, he can't even find a way to achieve it, so it's hard to reach heaven.
When Li Chengfei first traveled through time, he faced this kind of dilemma. He knew that there were immortals in this world who could fly to the sky and escape from the earth, and could live forever. They were fascinating, but they had no way of finding them.
This feeling is even more desperate than the situation in the previous life where there were no immortals.
With little information available in the small mountain village, Li Chengfei set his goal to pursue immortality. The first step was to survive and then go out.
If he, a down-and-out young man, walked out of the village rashly, he would either be eaten by wild beasts or killed by bandits. His chances of survival were too low.
To be on the safe side, he first used the scientific and technological knowledge in his mind from his previous life to help the villagers improve their farming methods, significantly increase food production, gain the respect and trust of the villagers, make firearms, and defeat bandits...
Six years later, he became the most prestigious person in the village. After he had the power to protect himself, he took all his wealth and led the young people in the village out of the village and began to explore the map of the world.
Li Chengfei devoted himself to pursuing the path to immortality, but the more he learned about it, the more desperate he felt.
The two worlds of immortals and mortals have been separated for too long, for thousands of years. There are fewer and fewer clues about immortals in the mortal world, and most of them are just legends.
There are some ruins occasionally, but they are also extremely dangerous.
Li Chengfei once led people to excavate an immortal ruins. The men he sent disappeared without a trace after entering, and no one came out again. He hesitated for a long time, and finally did not have the courage to go in personally.
It’s really too dangerous!
What he pursues is immortality. Risking his life to break into the ruins is putting the cart before the horse.
He was once jealous of the emperor because he was extremely wealthy and benefited the people with various inventions. His prestige among the people was extremely high, which made the emperor feel threatened, so he suppressed him everywhere and looked for opportunities to raid his home and behead him.
Li Chengfei devoted himself to pursuing the path of immortality. The power, wealth and honor in the world were like passing clouds and meaningless to him. He did not want to waste his precious time on such meaningless things, so he tolerated everything.
The closest he came to being an immortal was more than 20 years ago. At that time, he was already sixty years old. His Qi and blood were withered, his energy was low, and he felt tired easily.
He was depressed, feeling that the path to immortality was getting further and further away from him, that he had no hope in this life, and that his mentality was almost on the verge of collapse.
But that year, two immortals suddenly descended from the sky, fought all the way, destroyed the city with their hands raised, and flew into the sky to escape while chasing. This chapter has been completed!
