The system gave me immortality, and I survived everyone

Faced with the words of the Buddhist saint, Bai Ze pondered for a moment and said, "I still don't quite understand."

"To become strong, the heart of a strong person is essential."

"Your status and cultivation are among the best in the world. Even if there are people in the world who are stronger than you, you should not be afraid."

Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, the Buddhist saint glanced at him and smiled faintly, "Your ability to become the Buddha is largely due to the guidance of the Funeral Master."

"In that case, we will not use Buddhist teachings to discuss this matter today."

As the saying goes, the ruthless fear the stubborn, and the stubborn fear the reckless.

"They are a bunch of complete lunatics, and a very powerful bunch of lunatics at that."

"So no matter how strong we are, we will ultimately have to fear them."

Upon receiving this answer, Bai Ze asked, "How are they crazy?"

"A person who firmly believes in immortality, what else could they be but a madman?"

"What do you mean?"

Bai Zhi asked subconsciously, and the Buddhist saint slowly sat down and said, "As I just said, immortality is something that all cultivators pursue."

"But the attitude of cultivators around the world towards immortality is quite interesting."

"Power, cultivation, emotions..."

“These things are constantly being pursued by people, who are even willing to pay with their lives.”

"And immortality is the pinnacle of all desires in the world, which should theoretically drive countless people mad."

"But the truth is that people's attitude towards immortality is not as fanatical as one might imagine."

"The fundamental reason is that immortality does not exist."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi asked, "If immortality doesn't exist, then what are cultivators pursuing?"

"It's simply a continuation of desire!"

"Because a living being can only continue to enjoy everything it has as long as it is alive."

"To put it another way, immortality is the sum of all desires in the world."

"But ideals are ideals and reality is reality. Many people know that immortality exists, so they can only pursue the continuation of everything they have as much as possible."

"When a creature can no longer walk, it can only return to dust and ashes."

Upon receiving this answer, Bai Zhi pondered for a moment and then spoke.

"I understand what you mean, but even so, they shouldn't be called crazy."

“There are countless people with unwavering faith on the path of spiritual practice, and they are just one of them.”

"no the same!"

The Buddhist saint shook his head and said, "Other cultivators have firm beliefs, which means they are not afraid of the dangers and temptations ahead, but they are obsessed and have become demonic."

"Immortality is the sum of all desires. When you firmly believe in the existence of immortality, you will naturally fall into the trap of desire."

"You will stop at nothing to achieve immortality, and everything else in the world will seem insignificant."

"This kind of mentality will inevitably lead them to trample on everything."

"Back then, we left the Eternal Life Era for two reasons: first, because we were influenced by them, and second, because a madman did something extremely crazy."

"whats the matter?"

"He has brought misfortune!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi's eyelids twitched, and she said, "Was it an ominous sign that the Imperial Tutor went through so much trouble to eliminate?"

"Yes, that's it."

"A madman, in his quest for immortality, inadvertently created an ominous situation."

"Later, for some unknown reason, ominous influence spread throughout the world, and the entire era was thrown into chaos by this thing."

"It just so happened that a celestial opportunity appeared outside at that time, and after discussing it, we decided to evacuate the entire era."

"When the time is right, we'll come back and completely resolve this ominous problem."

"But to our surprise, you actually eliminated the ominous force on your own, which really took us by surprise."

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi frowned even more deeply.

"What is this 'fate to immortality'?"

"It's just another path to immortality, and it's somewhat different from what some madmen pursue."

"What do you mean by this?"

Bai Zhi pressed on, and the Buddhist sage pondered for a moment before saying, "Although we believe that immortality does not exist, we still wish to perpetuate everything about ourselves."

"There are rumors and some scattered evidence in the cultivation world that there is something in the world that can prolong the lifespan of cultivators."

"This thing could be a place, a treasure, or even a special creature or a cultivation technique."

"But in any case, as long as we find this thing, we will be able to gain an extremely long lifespan."

"And this path is what we call 'the Immortal Path'."

"Because only the 'immortals' of folklore can satisfy our needs."

"Is such a thing really possible?"

Even after hearing the Buddhist saint's answer, Bai Zhi still found it hard to believe.

“We didn’t believe it at first either, but we actually found some evidence.”

"What evidence?"

"Nine Transformations of the Heavenly Silkworm!"

"Is the Nine Transformations of the Heavenly Silkworm related to 'immortals'?"

"Yes!"

The Buddhist sage nodded slightly and said, "Long ago, the first celestial silkworm of the Longevity Era went out to train and unexpectedly obtained something."

"It was based on this thing that the Nine Transformations of the Heavenly Silkworm were created."

"and after?"

It's dead!

"Since it's dead, why do you still believe in the existence of immortals?"

"Because after it obtained that thing, it lived for a very, very long time, exceeding the limits of living beings."

"how long?"

"Twenty-eight million years!"

Upon hearing this number, Bai Zhi was shocked, because he couldn't imagine how a living being could survive for so long.

"Is there any other evidence?"

"Have!"

"The founder of the Heavenly Dao Society possessed a cultivation technique called the Great Dream Immortal Manual."

"This cultivation technique allowed him to reach an unbelievable level of strength, and his lifespan became terrifyingly long."

"Given the current situation, he could easily live for another ten million years or so."

"Why don't you just rob it?"

Bai Zhi asked subconsciously, and the Buddhist saint grinned and said, "Who said we haven't tried to steal from him? The problem is we can't beat him."

"Within the scope of the Dan Era, he is an invincible being."

"Of course, the Divine Beast lineage did send top experts to the Pill Era, but in the end, they were all refined into pills by the founder of the Heavenly Dao Society."

"Since that incident, we have never had any designs on the Dan Era again."

"Who is stronger, the master of the Netherworld Forest or the founder of the Heavenly Dao Society?"

"That's a good question. I might not know about other people, but I can definitely tell you about these two."

"Because the founder of the Heavenly Dao Society and the master of the Netherworld Forest once had a minor conflict."

"I learned the whole story by chance."
