Immortal Changqing smoothed his short beard, as if the old god was there.
He did not explain directly, but asked:
"Will Dharma Corpse die?"
Li Mu was slightly startled, "The Dharma corpse is made from corpses. It is a dead thing, so how can it die?"
"Even if you don't drink rootless water, don't breathe in yin energy, and don't eat moonlight, you will only lose power and be unable to move."
Immortal Changqing nodded: "In other words, the Dharma Corpse can continue to exist as long as it is not destroyed by external forces."
Li Mu said: "Theoretically, this is true, but the reality is different. If left unchecked, wind, sun, insects, and many reasons will cause the destruction of the Dharma Corpse."
Immortal Changqing wanted to roll his eyes, so I just asked casually, why are you so serious?
"Does my nephew know what immortal cultivators seek?"
Li Mu thought for a while and said sternly: "Everyone in the world wants nothing more than lust for power, lust, and greed, but what we, the orthodox sect of the Immortal Sect, must pursue is to support justice, eliminate demons, defend the law, and protect the people of the world."
Immortal Changqing twitched the corners of his mouth.
The Cassia Immortal next to him also widened his eyes.
Is this kid so enlightened?
Li Mu asked doubtfully: "Am I wrong?"
"Cough cough cough!" Immortal Changqing coughed, "Our Taiyuan Sect is the largest immortal sect in Dongzhou, so of course we have such responsibilities and structure!"
"But as individual individuals, monks in the world all start from themselves, and what they seek is nothing more than immortality."
"Immortality?"
"Yes, immortality! We seek the Dharma and cultivate immortality. What we seek is the method of immortality. What we seek is the way to immortality. What we cultivate is the immortality of immortality. Only immortality is what we ultimately seek."
"As for power, desire, and even the powerful magic of moving mountains and reclaiming seas, they are just by-products of immortality."
"After a monk reaches the ninth level of the human realm, crosses the gate of heaven, and embarks on the path of immortality, his mortal body will turn into an immortal body. He will no longer be subject to the shackles of birth, old age, illness, and death, and will naturally gain immortality."
"But most monks in the world have already died before becoming immortals."
"One of the important reasons is... dying of old age."
Speaking of this, Immortal Changqing stopped talking.
Li Mu fell into deep thought.
The world is very big, and the status of practitioners is very high.
Monks can obtain a great deal of resources from mortals.
As long as you are not unlucky and don't want to fight, you can live a peaceful and prosperous life.
The monks have a special physique and almost never get sick.
After considering all aspects, the biggest threat to the monk's life can only be... time.
Die of old age.
Li Mu's mind felt like a bolt of lightning flashed across his mind.
The monks will die of old age, but the Dharma Corpse I refined will not!
He looked at Immortal Changqing in front of him in shock.
"Uncle Master is saying that there are people who are willing to refine themselves into Dharma corpses in order to seek immortality?!"
Immortal Changqing nodded.
The Immortal Cassia next to him flattered him: "It's easy to understand. My nephew is indeed very wise."
Immortal Changqing rolled his eyes at him, "Old drunkard, don't come here to get close to me. Xiao Li has nothing to do with you. Can you call me nephew at will?"
Immortal Cassia stared: "You and I are like brothers, you can drink my wine, why can't I call you your nephew?"
Immortal Changqing: "You can bark, but are you embarrassed to call me in vain? If you want to be someone's uncle, you should show it, right?"
Immortal Cassia was stunned for a moment, and a small purple-yellow gourd appeared in his hand.
"My good nephew, this is a greeting gift, please keep it."
Li Mu subconsciously looked at Immortal Changqing.
The latter nodded, "This is the Xuanshui Gourd. Although it looks small, it can hold a river of water. It can barely be considered a middle-grade immortal weapon."
Li Mu's expression suddenly changed. He reached out and grabbed the Xuanshui gourd. He stepped back and said, "Oh my, Uncle Jueming, you are too polite. How can I accept such an expensive gift?"
Immortal Ju Ming's face trembled, "You don't want it, so just let go of your hand. Why are you holding the Xuanshui gourd tightly?"
He was complaining in his heart, but he said politely on his face, "Be careful, just take it, take it."
After several attempts to push back and forth, he finally "sent" the Xuan Shui Gourd out.
"Uncle Jueming wants to see it. How can I, as a nephew, not give it to you?"
Li Mu took out a small notebook, wrote down the secret method of corpse refining in his mind, and thoughtfully drew the Yin Gathering Talisman.
"This method is called the "Nine Yin Corpse Refining Method". The Yin Gathering Talisman is used to gather Yin Qi, and the Yin Qi is used to refine the corpse. Finally, it is tempered with Gang Lei to remove the evil spirit from the corpse and become a Dharma Corpse. "
"I have written down the specific refining details here. If there is anything Uncle Jue Ming doesn't understand, just tell me. My nephew knows everything."
As if he had found a treasure, Immortal Cassia read it carefully word for word.
There were only a few pictures and 2,000 words, which was just one chapter of a novel about his past life. He read it for almost half an hour.
After reading it, I thought about it for a long time and said with emotion:
"Wonderful——"
"This Nine Yin Corpse Refining Secret Technique is really ingenious!"
"My nephew is truly a great talent!"
Li Mu chuckled: "Master Jue Ming is so complimentary."
The two complimented each other for a while.
Immortal Ju Ming patted his head and said, "I have a disciple who has been trapped on the Tiandi Bridge for hundreds of years. I just want to practice with him."
Li Mu was startled, "Master Jue Ming wants to refine a puppet corpse?"
Immortal Ju Ming nodded, "Then what else would I do with your Nine Yin Corpse Refining Secret Technique? If there are any omissions when I am refining the corpse, my good nephew will be there to check it for me!"
Before Li Mu could refuse, he rolled up his sleeves and the two of them disappeared from the spot.
…
In the Immortal Dynasty of the secular world, Liyang, the Yangxin Hall of the Imperial Palace.
An old man with gray hair and beard was giving a lecture to the young emperor.
"Your Majesty has been on the throne for less than three years, and his foundation is not yet stable. It is sincerely appropriate to open a holy hearing to honor the late emperor's imperial edict and to magnify the spirit of lofty ideals..."
As he spoke, he looked tired.
The young emperor wearing a bright yellow dragon robe quickly stepped forward, held a cup of spiritual tea in both hands, and handed it over respectfully.
The white-haired old man drank the spirit tea, and his face covered with age spots gained some color.
"Alas, I, Zhou Binglun, have been practicing for thousands of years, day and night, but because the bridge between heaven and earth is broken, I cannot touch the gate of heaven, so I can only waste my time in the mortal world."
"Fortunately, after staying in Liyang Dynasty for three hundred years, I taught several students and sent them to Qingyun Peak to practice. I heard that your imperial brother participated in this year's Taoism Ceremony and entered the top 100 on the list. I also There is a successor."
Hearing this, the young emperor's eyes were full of envy.
What an honor it is to be among the top 100 people of Qingyun's lineage?
"I also know that Your Majesty wants to cultivate immortality, but His Majesty, your Dao foundation is shallow and your talent is not high. Even if you go to Qingyun Peak, you will probably only be a low-level disciple."
"There is a common slang saying that it is better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. Your Majesty, if you stay in Liyang Kingdom, you can still be a human emperor who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. Why bother to go to the immortal gate and be despised by others?"
The young emperor sighed in his heart and knelt down on the ground: "Students should remember the teacher's teachings."
The old man waved his hand, "Get up, you are the emperor, don't kneel down at all times, it loses your majesty."
"I don't have much time left. In two or three years, it will be time to return to the sect."
It seemed that he felt a little cold. The old man wrapped himself in a fur cloak and looked at the night sky with his cloudy eyes.
The stars are twinkling and the vastness is endless.
A blue cloud slowly floated over.
