Chapter 88 A Joint Visit to Mount Kunlun

hiss!

Even though the other four were prepared and knew that Lao Tzu's method would be extremely difficult, they did not expect it to be this difficult.

The plan was to refine Guang Chengzi like an elixir, and even to actually kill him, so that Guang Chengzi would understand the true meaning of life and death through death, and finally, through his own willpower, be resurrected and reborn.

Even Tongtian, whose temperament was the most resolute, was greatly shocked at this moment. He hurriedly said, "Brother, isn't your method too extreme? Guang Chengzi is just a Golden Immortal. He hasn't even reached the Taiyi realm yet, let alone become a Daluo, eternally free and infinitely resurrected. If he dies, he will really die. How can he be resurrected by his own willpower? He is not a Daluo Golden Immortal."

Tongtian is right. Not to mention immortal golden immortals, even Taiyi golden immortals cannot be resurrected after death.

Ordinary resurrection techniques have nothing to do with resurrection in the first place. They are simply leaving one's flesh, soul, and even a little bit of magic power or imprint in some place beforehand, and entrusting it to rare and precious materials.

After the original body dies, the marks that are attached to these rare and precious materials will immediately take over these treasures and be reborn in their bodies. This is called resurrection.

Resurrection and rebirth are not related at all. The former is far more difficult than the latter, as it means to truly die and be brought back to life. Rebirth, on the other hand, is to burst forth with new life on the basis of being alive.

Even some mortal cultivators, those who haven't even become immortals, can achieve the latter if they have the will, but the former is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

If one were to be completely wiped out by the Karmic Severing Technique, losing all remaining means and dying entirely, even a Taiyi Golden Immortal would be unable to revive them, and their true spirit would be forever dormant in the past.

Even if some people are resurrected, it is actually because the Great Immortals have intervened, forcibly pulling them out of the past and resurrecting them with heaven-defying methods.

However, this method of resurrection cannot last long. Every true spirit will suffer a slight loss when it is separated from the past. Although the loss is extremely minor, it cannot be compensated for.

If one is resurrected too many times, the true spirit will eventually be obliterated, and even a Great Immortal cannot save it.

Only the Great Luo Golden Immortal, who has broken free from all constraints and whose true spirit and the Great Dao are eternally preserved, can be resurrected indefinitely. No one else can be resurrected; at most, they can be reborn.

That's why the other four were so surprised, because Lao Tzu's decision was no different from killing Guang Chengzi.

If Guang Chengzi could truly be resurrected and return through his will, then he would already possess the essence of a Great Luo Golden Immortal. However, if he were a Great Luo Golden Immortal, he wouldn't be unable to break free from the fusion of the remnant soul of Shen Ni. At worst, he would die once, and all the curses would vanish.

So this is a paradox, a paradox that is difficult to resolve.

Faced with Tongtian's doubts, Laozi simply said, "Next, we will invite Junior Sister Nuwa here. Only the Great Dao of Creation can enable Guangchengzi to achieve the miracle of resurrection."

The others, having no other choice, hurriedly went to invite Nuwa to come.

When the goddess Nuwa learned that Guang Chengzi had an accident, she took it very seriously and hurriedly rode a golden phoenix to Kunlun Mountain.

The scene of receiving Zhunti descending to Kunlun Mountain was already known to many great gods, but they didn't take it seriously at first, thinking it was just a discussion of the Great Dao.

But now even the Goddess Nuwa has gone to Kunlun Mountain. All six disciples of the Sages have gathered together, but no one else has been invited. This makes people wonder what they are discussing.

The Sun Star.

This star is the supreme star transformed from Pangu's left eye. It is high above, ruling over all the heavens, and releases unimaginable boundless light all day long, illuminating the primordial world and the vast universe, so that every tiny corner is bathed in the warmth of the sun and starlight.

On this supreme star, a great god was also born. He was a twin brother, the three-legged golden crow ancestor, a true god of fire, whose presence inspired all the flames of the primordial world.

With the sun high in the sky, nothing in the world could escape the eyes of these two brothers. When the Goddess Nuwa rode a phoenix out of Phoenix Perch Mountain and headed to Kunlun Mountain, it was naturally known to Emperor Jun and Taiyi.

As the dazzling golden light carried an unimaginably perfect goddess across the Sun Star, a young man dressed in imperial robes and wearing a crown could not hide the burning passion in his heart.

"Truly a radiant goddess, the perfect Nuwa lives up to her name." Di Jun uttered a seemingly casual compliment, then turned to a man beside him who bore a striking resemblance to him but wore a simple Taoist robe and asked, "Taiyi, what do you think is the reason Nuwa and the others have gathered at Kunlun Mountain? Could it be that they are discussing my unworthiness as the leader of the demon race and have decided to support another race to overthrow me?"

Taiyi's expression was calm, unlike Dijun's domineering and unparalleled demeanor, but he appeared more composed. He was playing with a small Chaos Bell in his hand, which looked like a bell. No one expected that this small bell was actually the Chaos Bell, one of the three innate treasures transformed from the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe.

Playing with the Chaos Bell, Taiyi looked up at Kunlun Mountain upon hearing this and said quietly, "The Three Pure Ones have no intention of vying for the primordial world, and Jieyin and Zhunti only care about the West. As for Nuwa, although she wants to help Fuxi ascend to the throne, she is no match for the many forces at once and can only stay in seclusion on Phoenix Perch Mountain all day long. There is no need to worry about her."

After hearing this, Di Jun smiled and said, "A good man's ambition lies in all directions. It is not impossible for Fuxi to become the leader of the demon race, and even Nuwa can become the leader of the demon race. Since that is the case, I will just bestow upon them the titles of Nuwa and Fuxi. In name, they are equal in status, and I doubt she can say anything about it."

Taiyi remained noncommittal, but gazing at Mount Kunlun piercing the starry sky, he suddenly said, "Since all six disciples of the Sages are gathered here, we must go and pay our respects. Why don't you take your two sisters-in-law with you, and we'll go together to pay our respects to the Sages?"

Di Jun was taken aback, but then clapped his hands and laughed loudly, "Good, good, good! Hongjun Daozu teaches the world, and as their disciples, we should naturally welcome everyone. Not only should we go, but Kunpeng and Bai Ze should also go. Let's just send all the mortals in Zixiao Palace to go, so that everyone can get to know each other better. I'll go and call Dong Wanggong and Xi Wangmu now. After all, Xi Kunlun is Xi Wangmu's Daoist temple. She has not returned for a long time, and I'm sure she misses him very much. This will be a good way to ease her longing."

The two brothers agreed to immediately send a message throughout the land, informing each other that they would travel together to Kunlun Mountain to visit their six senior brothers and sisters.

These people didn't know what Di Jun and Tai Yi were planning, and they really thought they were going to visit their senior brothers and sisters, so they all set off, first going to the Sun Star, and then going together to visit Kunlun Mountain.
