I am a fairy

Chapter 258 Chaotian Tower

It was Wuzhiqi’s first time going to the underworld.

As a god, the first place he went to was Haoli, where he saw the tombs, palaces, and temples everywhere.

Humans, gods, demons and ghosts gather here, and it looks as lively as another human world, but it is far more lively than the human world.

Wuzhiqi stood in the tall wormwood, scratching his head and looking into the distance.

"where is this place?"

The dragon who had transformed into a skinny man looked at Wuzhiqi and spoke.

"Artemisia."

It was the first time that Wuzhiqi had seen such a place. Under Yu Qing's guidance, he stumbled into the weeds.

He learned how to use merit, and built a temple here. However, his temple turned directly into a mountain, and his mansion was also deep in the mountain.

Wuzhiqi used his merits to transform into various things he liked and created the demon palace in his memory, as if "the past" was reappearing.

"Well, well, this is truly a wonderful place."

"It can also conjure up food."

"This wine is good. It's exactly the same as the monkey wine I drank at the beginning. Hey, exactly the same."

"Why didn't you bring me here earlier, ah!"

The indescribable beauty of the land of Haoli made Wuzhiqi linger there, and sometimes he almost forgot his duty as the god of the Huai River, let alone his original purpose of coming there.

For a long time he forgot that he came to the underworld to find the Three Lives Stone.

one day.

He saw a Taoist priest at the banquet hosted by the Lord of the Peony Dragon Pond.

The Taoist was crazy, especially after drinking, he sang loudly at the Dragon King's banquet.

However, all the demons, ghosts and gods at the banquet did not care about the Taoist's unruly behavior. Even the Dragon King was the same. There were even many people who were very afraid of the Taoist.

Seeing this, Wuzhiqi, who was a brave man who was not afraid of anything, drank some more wine at the banquet and went up to the Taoist and pushed him.

Wuzhiqi: "Who are you? How dare you act like this in the Dragon King's Palace?"

Lu Yinyang recognized him: "I am the True Lord of the Three Corpses. I have seen the Water God of the Huai River. And I am not acting as if no one is around. This is just my nature."

When Wuzhiqi heard Lu Yinyang introduce himself, he immediately looked at him with higher regard.

He had heard from his subordinate Jiaolong about the other party before. This was a Taoist who was listed in the Book of Heaven and had attained immortality.

Wuzhiqi was very yearning for immortality and couldn't help asking.

"What is a god, and how to enter the heavenly book, old Taoist, please don't be stingy and tell me about it!"

Lu Yin Yang: "Gather the golden cloud of merit, give up this stinking skin, kill the three corpse worms, merge the three souls and seven spirits into the Heavenly Book, merge them into the world, and you will be able to achieve immortality."

Wuzhiqi: "What does it mean that the three souls and seven spirits merge into the Heavenly Book and the heaven and earth?"

Lu Yinyang: "I will take the you that you remember at this moment out of this body that is destined to decay, and integrate it into the eternal and unchanging world. From now on, you will be as eternal as the world."

"Immortality, eternity."

Wuzhi Qijiu woke up all of a sudden, and the words that the Emperor of Heaven had said rang in his ears again.

"The reason you are called Wuzhiqi is because someone implanted a false memory in your mind and told you that your name is Wuzhiqi."

"Apart from the memory in your mind, what else can you have to prove that you are Wuzhiqi?"

Wuzhiqi came forward and asked the old Taoist excitedly:
"What if everything I remember is false?"

"Doesn't that mean that someone else is the one who finally achieved enlightenment?"

The old Taoist laughed loudly and shook his head.

“What is true and what is false?”

"You have to figure this out for yourself, don't ask me."

Wuzhiqi: "If everything you remember right now is fake, then if you achieve immortality, wouldn't that mean you are just making a fake self last forever?"

The old Taoist didn't care at all and said to Wuzhiqi.

"Then I will treat the false as true. Even if what I remember now is false, the I who I am thinking about at this moment is the real one for me."

"Even if I am the fake one, do you want me to kill myself and bring back the real one?"

The old Taoist laughed loudly, becoming more and more crazy and unrestrained.

"Even if it is a fake, I will make it real."

At this moment, Wuzhiqi thought of the Sansheng Stone again, but suddenly he didn't have the courage to go there.

Just as the Taoist said, even if there is a real him in his mind, can he accept that real him?
At this time, something big happened at the banquet.

Suddenly, golden auspicious clouds emerged from the head of the Dragon King, who was sitting first in the Dragon Pool Banquet, and they were actually golden clouds of merit.

At this time, the Dragon King also stood up and laughed.

"My way is done."

After saying this, everyone present congratulated the owner of Peony Dragon Pond.

"Congratulations to Danlong King for attaining enlightenment!"

"Congratulations to Danlong King for being included in the Heavenly Book and gaining immortality!"

The status of the Lord of the Peony Dragon Pond should have been recorded in the Book of Heaven, but he took office due to some other reasons, and it was not until this moment that he finally gathered the golden cloud of merit.

Amid the guests' congratulations, the Dragon King stepped on a golden cloud and disappeared into the light.

Wuzhiqi looked over and vaguely saw a divine look on his face.

"Live forever and shine with the heaven and earth."

Wuzhiqi looked over, with a hint of envy in his eyes, but also a bit of complacency.

Among all the water veins in the world, the Yangtze River, Huai River, Yellow River and Ji River are known as the Four Rivers. As the god of the Huai River, if he can accumulate the golden cloud of merit, one day he will surely be able to be like the master of the Peony Dragon Pond.

He was destined to be like the Lord of the Peony Dragon Pond, merging his soul into the Heavenly Book and the world, and becoming immortal along with the Huai River.

As long as the Huai River exists, he, the God of the Huai River, will still exist.

But thinking of this, he became a little panicked.

"Who am I?"

"If I were like that Yin-Yang Taoist and the Lord of the Peony Dragon Pond, and I were to put on the divine appearance, I'm afraid I would never be able to change back!"

But when he thought of this, he shook his head again and again.

"No, no, no, absolutely not. Absolutely not."

"What do you mean by changing back? Wouldn't that mean you become someone else?"

Although this is what one says, as one’s merits accumulate, one’s days as a god will get longer and longer.

He thought that one day he would also wear that divine image.

He still began to think about figuring out his past and identity.
-
In the Huaihe River water palace.

Wuzhiqi had a dream. In the dream, he seemed to have turned into a little monkey, nestling in his mother's arms.

In his dream, he was sleeping soundly, with an indescribable sense of security.

"Squeak squeak!"

There were other monkeys making noises in the dream. Wuzhiqi woke up in shock and didn't understand what the dream meant, but it made him very upset.

After that, Wuzhiqi, the God of the Huai River, lost interest in doing anything and was entangled in this matter all day long. He didn't understand why he had such a dream when he was clearly an alien species born and raised by nature?
At this time, the water god Yu Qing, who was sitting below, saw Wuzhiqi so anxious and couldn't help but speak.

"You are the God of the Huai River, the ancient demon god Wuzhiqi. Why are you doubting me?"

"If you really have such doubts, why don't you go to the Three Lives Stone and take a look."

Wuzhiqi said irritably: "What if I go and see it and it's not what I want, then what should I do?"

Yu Qing said, "If I don't watch it, it will continue like this forever. If it goes on for a long time, I'm afraid I'll develop a mental disorder."

Wuzhiqi finally made up his mind and went to take a look at the Three Lives Stone on the wheel of reincarnation.

There was a long line of wandering ghosts in front of the reincarnation platform, some were sobbing, and some were looking up expectantly.

Sudden.

A sneaky creature that looked like a giant black macaque came out and carefully blended into the crowd.

Wuzhiqi took advantage of a wandering ghost's inattention and got next to the ghost, standing with him and walking up the long steps together.

"Hey, I'll go up with you."

The monkey was tall and big, but it hunched over. After it got in, it couldn't help but smile, and seemed to be quite happy.

He was not trying to compete with others for reincarnation, he was just cutting in line to see his past and present lives.

Wuzhiqi listened to the lonely soul talking, and even some people were bidding farewell under the long steps of the reincarnation platform. This life was over, and it was feared that they would never meet again in the next life.

When he heard that the ghosts had agreed to meet again in the next life, Wuzhiqi couldn't help but sneer.

"Who will remember who after this reincarnation? How can the promises made in this life still count?"

But when I thought about this, I began to feel a bit of awe towards the reincarnation up there.

Some of the ghosts around him were at a loss, while others went on stage with relief.

"Coming."

"After entering the cycle of reincarnation, you can be a human being again."

“I don’t know where I will be reincarnated.”

But no matter what you think, as long as the afterlife is reflected on the reincarnation platform and you see the scenes of the afterlife, you will have to enter that reincarnation no matter what.

Some people are reborn well and jump into the vortex with joy.

Some people were reborn in a worse state and wanted to escape, but were also sucked into the vortex.

Looking at all these scenes, Wuzhiqi also became panicked and wanted to escape from this reincarnation platform.

At this moment, he saw a mother and son stepping onto the reincarnation platform together and entering reincarnation together.

"Mother, I'm scared!"

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. When you come back in the next life, we can still meet in this underworld."

When Wuzhiqi saw this scene, he remembered the dream again.

He was not a species born and raised, but a monkey born from the womb. He couldn't help but feel touched and went on stage.

Wuzhiqi was very cautious and only took a quick look at his present life, fearing that he might press the wrong button and see his afterlife.

There was a flash of light, and he finally saw his true self.

on the screen.

He snuggled in the arms of a black ape, which licked his fur. He opened his eyelids slightly and looked into the distance.

"what!"

Wuzhiqi fled in panic, as if he had seen a ghost.

"No, no, it's fake!"

"It's absolutely fake, all of it."

"Lie to me, you're all lying to me."

"I am Wuzhiqi, I am Wuzhiqi..."

The monkey screamed and even transformed into a huge Dharma image, roaring in the underworld. The angry and anxious roars echoed on both sides of the Yellow Springs, causing countless wandering ghosts to cast terrified glances at it.
-
The Moon Palace in the heavens. The Moon Goddess stared at the data that was constantly being uploaded. Every move of the being named Wuzhiqi, even every thought in his mind, would be synchronized to her side.

"As expected, without being able to break through Wuzhiqi's personality model, Subject No. 1 really has no potential."

Yun Zhongjun: "Experimental subject number one, do you have a second one?"

Yun Zhongjun was sitting in front of the round window, holding Yueshen's rabbit in his arms. His head, which was originally looking outside, immediately turned back to look at Yueshen when he heard what she said.

Moon Goddess: "More than just number two."

The Moon Goddess blurted out the secret at once, then looked at Yun Zhongjun and asked him.

Moon Goddess: "Yun Zhongjun seems to be looking forward to it. He can break through the personality model and break the limitations of the monster!"

Yun Zhongjun: "I really hope he can become a human being."

Moon Goddess: "Yun Zhongjun also wants his copper skin muscles, he also thinks that is very strong!"

Yun Zhongjun: “It’s not because of this.”

After a series of tests, Yue Shen discovered that no matter how stimulated he was, Wuzhiqi's personality did not change at all.

He may have tried to break through the boundary again and again under the impetus, but bounced back every time.

If he could break this boundary, Wuzhiqi would no longer be a demon, and in a sense, he could become a human.

But the final result does not seem to be what we expected.

Jiang Chao asked Wangshu: "Is it because Wuzhiqi can't break through the personality model, or because he can't accept that he is just a beast?"

The Moon Goddess said: "From the results, isn't it the same? He can neither break through the personality model nor accept another self."

The Moon Goddess continued to monitor the data, checking every secret deep in Wuzhiqi's brain, and finally shook her head.

"Perhaps it's just like what you said, a person's personality can only be born in this body."

“It is precisely because of the flaws and imperfections that people are human.”

The Moon Goddess changed the subject and began to tease Jiang Chao again.

"So, let's not be human anymore!"

She knew that Jiang Chao would not agree and did not like her saying this, but she kept saying it, wanting to see Jiang Chao's expression.

Jiang Chao glanced at the misty mirror window and looked at Wuzhiqi inside.

"It's not necessarily a loss!"

"Wuzhiqi hasn't made a choice yet. How do you know he can't break through the model?"

Wangshu shook his head, as if he had given up on Wuzhiqi.

"impossible."

Jiang Chao: "Why?"

Wangshu: "This is not a question of whether or not to break through the limit. This is a question of whether or not it is possible. He doesn't have that ability, so no matter how hard he tries, it will be impossible."

Wangshu turned around and said, "Not only will he not be able to break through, he will also gradually lose this ability."

Jiang Chao touched the rabbit: "Lose ability?"

Wangshu said as he came closer to Yunzhongjun and hugged his rabbit.

"Don't you remember, Yun Zhongjun?"

"Once a person loses his or her body, his or her personality and emotions will also gradually disappear."

"In order to try to make Wuzhiqi break through the boundaries of the demon, Wuzhiqi's personality is not fixed. So once he is unable to break through the boundaries of the demon and become a human, he will no longer be able to maintain human emotions and personality like a demon."

Jiang Chao: "What will happen then?"

Wangshu: "Become a being similar to stone!"

If you can't fly up to the sky and step on the clouds, you will only fall into the quagmire of the mortal world.
-
Wuzhiqi, the former demon god and now the God of Huai River, found it hard to accept. He felt a rage rising in his chest, urging him to smash everything around him to pieces.

After coming back, he smashed everything in the water palace to pieces or pushed it to the ground.

Then, all kinds of monsters in the dark of the water palace were seen taking action, restoring those things one by one, or putting them back to their original positions.

"nonsense."

"You lied to me, you lied to me."

"I am not Wuzhiqi."

"No!"

"I am Wuzhiqi."

"I am Wuzhiqi."

Wuzhiqi was drunk and yelling loudly.

However, after waking up, he suddenly realized that he was not so angry anymore.

Only one night had passed, but he felt as if a long time had passed.

He didn't feel anything before when he was living a leisurely life every day, but after experiencing such ups and downs, this feeling became obvious.

Every day, he was losing the ability to feel and use his desires and emotions.

After waking up, Wuzhiqi looked at his own reflection on the glazed wall of the water palace, staggering and letting out a chuckle.

"What happened?"

"Why was I so angry yesterday?"

"It's just that I saw some images. What's the problem?"

Wuzhiqi was burping, waving his hands continuously, and talking to himself.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

"It's no big deal, eh, it's okay!"

The ape staggered, waved his hands and smiled at himself.

Then he tried to forget about it, but another day, he couldn't help but come to the Three Lives Stone.

Wuzhiqi saw that scene again, and he felt a little worried and frightened.

"I am not Wuzhiqi."

"I really am... not Wuzhiqi."

"I'm just a monkey, an ordinary monkey, I'm nothing."

So he once again fled from the reincarnation platform in fear.

"They all lied to me."

"Emperor of Heaven, you lied to me, you lied to me."

"Why did you make me like this? Why did you lie to me?"

After returning home, he got drunk again.

After waking up, Wuzhiqi found that he had forgotten his worries and fears. It seemed that this body of bronze and iron gave him powerful magical powers, but also made him gradually lose something.

And with each passing day, this feeling grew stronger.

day to day.

As he lost more and more in these things, he felt more and more that something was wrong.

"I, I, how could I become like this?"

He was becoming colder and less human.

This doesn't seem to be a big deal, because he is not a human being, whether he is Wuzhiqi or not.

However, this feeling was not like what he had imagined, turning into a beast or a ferocious and tyrannical ancient demon god.

In fact, he didn't want to move anymore.

Sometimes he even wanted to turn into a piece of stone, embedded in the bank of the Huai River, never moving.

"I……"

"Why do I think this?"

He became less and less like Wuzhiqi, or a living thing.

Now, Wuzhiqi couldn't help but go to the underworld and came to the Three Lives Stone for the third time.

He wanted to take another look at the scene.

This time.

He was not trying to get back the past, nor was he looking for anything.

He just wanted to feel the anger roaring out of his mouth, the unwillingness and resentment surging in his chest, and even the worry and fear tangled in his intestines.

But this time.

Wuzhiqi stood on the reincarnation platform, staring blankly at the scene in the Three Lives Stone.

Whether it is sadness or anger, it is just like a small trickle flowing through the chest.

And watching and watching.

Gradually, the tiny trickle didn't seem to be much of a sensation.

only left with.

All indifferent.

"How could this be?"

"Am I alive now, or am I dead?"

He had no fear, but he was extremely attached to the feeling of being alive and was unwilling to give it up.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a strong desire for the feeling of love, hate, and vengeance flowing in his heart, a desire that surpassed everything.

Even.

Love, hate, resentment, joy and fear are nothing but illusions, created by those who are high and mighty, and have never really existed.

This desire transcends the seven emotions and six desires themselves, just like a hole in the void that draws water from the river unstoppably.

"How can I regain my emotions and find my former self?"

"But if I can feel the ripples of love, hate, anger and sorrow in my heart, it is enough!"

"It makes me feel the joy of life and restores my former freedom."

Wuzhiqi turned around calmly and walked down the long steps.

He didn't go back.

Instead, he headed towards the place where he had seen the Emperor of Heaven before, which was located in the east.

Facing the sky.

Sun Palace.
