Long River Eternity

Yang Nian's eyes were gentle. He raised his hand and waved it gently, saying soothingly, "You don't need to think too much right now. I've been to the laboratory. I saw everything you described, including Shi Gang's corpse, with my own eyes."

When Wei Wu heard this, his eyes lit up. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Yang Nian pause slightly, then suddenly changed the subject and continued, "That's why I said Shi Gang's life or death is still to be confirmed.

I'm also having trouble determining whether the body is Shi Gang himself. If I were to tell you about this doubt before the results are clear, I'm afraid you'd start to overthink it."

"How could it be?" Wei Wu's face was filled with disbelief, his voice filled with shock and confusion. "With your understanding of him, you can't tell whether it's true or not?"

Yang Nian sighed slightly, his expression full of helplessness, and slowly said: "You have also seen that Shi Gang's attainments in the field of biology have long reached the pinnacle, far surpassing everyone else.

For him, cloning an identical clone is a piece of cake.

If it were someone else, I could still identify their identity based on the remaining original aura in the corpse.

But according to your description, all the power in that corpse has been transferred to your body, so it is just an empty shell with the same appearance as Shi Gang.

What's more, Shi Gang is a powerful person in the realm of true domination. The power of the origin of his great Dao is so powerful and majestic that it is far beyond our reach, and we cannot explore it at all.

Therefore, I cannot be sure whether Shi Gang's thunder essence has never entered your body, or whether it has not yet been activated by you."

"Is there even any need to think about it?" Hao Fei couldn't help but speak first, "That's definitely not the real Lao Shi. If it were the real Lao Shi, he could easily wipe out these two little brats with just a flick of his finger. How could he have been possessed by them?"

"What if Shi Gang really wants to die?" Yang Nian suddenly said in a calm tone.

When Hao Fei and the others heard this, they were struck by lightning and froze for a moment. They stared blankly at Yang Nian with disbelief in their eyes, as if they couldn't believe their ears.

After a long silence, Hao Fei laughed dryly, waved his hand, and said, "Sister Nian, stop joking. Lao Shi is alive and well, why is he asking for death?

Are you trying to say something like, "I've lived too long, I can't let go of things"? Throughout our cultivation, while our levels of cultivation vary, in terms of character, who among us isn't as solid as a rock?

As long as one's Dao heart is intact, how could one so easily harbor the desire to die? Nüba and I were trapped underground for so many years, and we waited until the day of our return, and we never lost our minds."

As Yang Nian listened to Hao Fei's words, memories of the past flooded into her mind like a tide, making her a little dazed for a moment.

She sighed softly and said slowly, "Yes, in the past, we laughed at the immortality imagined by those scholars and writers, and ridiculed them for using their short lives to try to spy on the thoughts of the immortals and to resonate with them.

But when we lost our cultivation and became ordinary people, suffering through endless years, we truly realized that such eternal life was like a long and painful curse.

After Yang Nian finished speaking, he fell into a brief trance, as if he was recalling the long experience of billions of years.

Just as Hao Fei opened his mouth to speak, Yang Nian came back to his senses and continued, "However, you are right about one thing.

Even if we become ordinary people without any cultivation, even if these billions of years are long and difficult, but with the character honed during the ancient wars, we will not easily have extreme thoughts.

Unless Shi Gang discovers some clues that make him extremely desperate, and becomes the last straw that breaks the camel's back."

"The thing that made him despair? You mean..." Hao Fei was surprised and looked at Yang Nian, but found that Yang Nian's eyes were fixed on Wei Wu. Hao Fei was startled, as if realizing something, and asked in surprise: "You mean..."

Before Hao Fei could finish his words, Yang Nian interrupted him: "Anyway, all of this is just speculation at the moment. The most urgent task is to confirm whether Wei Wu really has the source of lightning in his body."

Then Yang Nian looked at Wei Wu and said, "Now that you have broken through to the Domination Realm, we will teach you how to communicate with the lightning source in your body. If you really have the lightning source in your body, you will definitely gain some insights in a short period of time.

Even if you don't succeed in communicating with the Origin Power, even though we don't have the ability to identify it, Queen Mother Xi, as a True Lord, must have the ability. When Queen Mother Xi wakes up, all the truth will be revealed."

"Alas..." Hao Fei sighed, his expression downcast. "I thought after all the twists and turns, I'd finally waited for the day when spiritual energy would revive, and I'd regain my freedom and be reunited with you. But who could have expected that the news of Lao Shi's death would greet me? Fate really loves to play tricks on me."

His brows were furrowed, his eyes filled with worry, and he continued, "How are Old Yang and Master Qin doing now? They're not with you. Could they have met with something unexpected?"

Yang Nian looked at Xiaobai and Liu Xianxian who were still trying their best to consolidate the soul of Queen Mother of the West.

There was a faint light flickering around the two of them, and their expressions were solemn, while the illusory souls still appeared around the Queen Mother of the West from time to time.

Yang Nian realized that it would take a long time to completely consolidate the soul of the Queen Mother of the West, but he could not help much with the soul issue.

So, she turned her head and looked at Hao Fei and Nv Ba who had come to his side, and said softly, "Let's not talk about things that happened too long ago. We still have some time, so I will give you a brief account of what happened in the past ten thousand years."

Feng Xi walked to the side of the sleeping Feng Hao, his eyes fell on Feng Hao's face, carefully checking his condition.

Then, Feng Xi tilted his head and glanced at Wei Wu standing beside him with a slightly disdainful look. He sighed softly, his tone full of helplessness: "You are really something."

At this time, Wei Wu had just suffered a "bombardment" from Chu Tianxiao and Li Huan, and was criticized until his face turned red.

At this moment, facing Feng Xi's contemptuous gaze from a seven-year-old child, he felt even more uncomfortable and embarrassed, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into.

He quickly dropped his head, waving his hands around, and eagerly admitted his mistake: "I really didn't expect that I would suddenly break through to the Domination Realm! This time it's my fault. When the little brat wakes up, I will willingly be his human punching bag for a day, and I promise not to fight back!"

To escape this awkward situation, Wei Wu quickly changed the subject. He bowed slightly and asked Feng Xi anxiously, "Is there something wrong in Zhongzhou City? Why are you here?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Tianxiao and Li Huan immediately stopped scolding Wei Wu, their faces filled with tension. They all looked at Feng Xi, quietly waiting for his answer.

Feng Xi shook his head slightly, his tone calm and steady, "Although there were some minor incidents in Zhongzhou City, they have been properly resolved, and there are no major changes at the moment. It's just that Ah Hao and Tianshu Pavilion have had some differences in philosophy, so he wanted to come to Bingzhong to seek advice from Teacher Yang."

Then, Feng Xi recounted to Wei Wu and the others how Zhongzhou City was invaded by monsters, the conflict between Feng Hao and Zhan Tianqiong, and his encounter with Lin Ding.

After finishing his story, Feng Xi added, "But these are what Ah Hao told me. I have to wait until he wakes up to ask him directly about the specific situation."
