Start cultivating attributes from one person to immortality

Chapter 52 The Truth
"Smart!" Su Hetu smiled.

Suru next to her shook her little head vigorously and said strangely: "Chu Ci, Grandpa High Priest, aren't you Su Hetu? Why aren't you anymore?"

Chu Ci glanced at Suru. This girl probably didn't know about the existence of strangers, but she didn't question Su Hetu's extraordinary abilities. Instead, she wondered about Su Hetu's life and death. Her brain circuit was really different from other people's.

While thinking, Chu Ci said: "He is not, he is the corpse driver. Su Hetu is already dead."

Suru was still a little confused, so Chu Ci pondered: "Do you know the second personality?"

When Chu Ci said this, Suru suddenly understood and said, "You mean that the high priest grandpa awakened his second personality after entering the Yaoxian Society, and it was the second personality that died?"

Chu Ci nodded.

Su Hetu said: "To be precise, it started when I possessed a living person, and under the influence of countless other people's consciousness, Su Hetu, the high priest of the Yaoxian Society, was born."

"Later, Su Hetu was killed. Zhengdao was afraid that I would be resurrected, so he tried his best to burn all the possessed bodies, leaving no way for Su Hetu to survive. I originally thought I was dead. But not long after, I was resurrected, in the body of my master.

When I was resurrected, I realized that my master had already predicted that I would be here today, and extracted a trace of my soul very early to keep it, so that I could have a chance to be resurrected. "

Hearing this, Chu Ci was startled. As long as there is still a trace of soul, he can be resurrected indefinitely. With this kind of power, if Su Hetu hadn't committed suicide, who could kill him.

"What happens next?" Chu Ci asked.

"After?" Su Hetu had more memories on his face. Under the sunshine, he stretched out comfortably, without any fear of death.

"Later, I returned to my old career and hid in the mountains to practice and recover silently. In the past few decades, my power has been newly developed and I can possess Gu insects. However, my death at the beginning did not have no impact on me. My soul is permanently disabled and will perish as time goes by. That is the most essential death. I cannot stop it. No matter how strong I am, it is useless.

So I started refining the Gu Body Saint Child again and looked for the Divine Dragon Key, hoping that Immortality could solve my problem. It has been until now. Well, my story ends here. If you have any questions, please ask. "

Su Hetu looked at Chu Ci with a smile, as if they were not enemies, but friends drinking and talking.

Chu Ci thought for a moment and asked, "Who is Su Xiaoxiao?"

The smile on Su Hetu's face became even bigger, "I knew you would ask this question. Su Xiaoxiao is my granddaughter, and so is Xiaoru, including Xiaoru's other eight dead sisters."

"Ah, is the high priest grandpa really my grandpa?" Suru's eyes widened. She called Su Hetu grandpa out of respect and love, but she didn't expect that he was the real grandpa.

"That means the Su Xiaoxiao and Suru's sister I know are the same person?" Chu Ci's eyes narrowed.

"No."

"???"

Chu Ci was stunned and looked at Su Hetu in confusion. Seeing that he was just smiling lightly, not like he was lying, a sudden idea flashed in his heart, he stood up and said in surprise: "I understand, you are Su Hetu, but You are also Jiang Yi and Lan Phoenix, right?"

Su Hetu laughed, "That's right. Jiang Yi and Lan Fenghuang were already dead. Even their bodies were burned. How could they still be alive? So everyone is me."

"What about Su Xiaoxiao's accident?" Chu Ci asked.

Su Hetu's eyes fell on Suru and said calmly: "As the saying goes, eggs cannot be put in one basket. Facing death, in addition to looking for the dragon key, I also launched other rescue methods. Do you know about rebirth after nine deaths?"

"Rebirth from nine deaths?" Chu Ci shook his head, but his eyes fell on Suru.

"Nine-death rebirth is a legendary ancient secret technique. It is said that after a person has experienced nine rebirths and obtained the life crystals of nine people, his life can be sublimated and he will live forever."

"So you use your own granddaughter to practice? Even if tiger poison doesn't eat its seeds, you are really inhumane." Chu Ci said solemnly.

"Human nature?" Su Hetu shook his head and said: "I lost my humanity when I joined the Yaoxian Society and helped them collect babies, or I lost my humanity when I died for the first time. You Celestial Masters Doesn't Taoism emphasize the cultivation of both life and death? According to you, I am not complete without my body. Human dispositions such as compassion, shame, honor, etc. have long been far away from me.

Using your own children and grandchildren to practice may seem cruel to you, but in my opinion, it is no different than using other children to practice. No, using my own children and grandchildren to practice allows me to more accurately control the direction of growth and get the best results. I have no more choices. I have to spend more time doing experiments, and I must succeed once and for all, so is it wrong to use my own descendants to practice? "

Chu Ci did not want to argue with Su Hetu about this fallacy. Everyone had different perceptions and could not explain it clearly.

He was silent for a moment and suddenly said: "You are wrong. Su Hetu in the past may have been cold and ruthless, but Su Hetu now is not. Otherwise, I would not be so easy to enter here, but there would be a bloody battle. You You won’t be able to answer my questions so easily here, and more importantly,”

Chu Ci glanced at Suru and whispered: "The fruit is ripe, but you didn't pick it."

Su Hetu chuckled and said: "As expected of the master of Tianshi Mansion, his talent and wisdom are extraordinary. Being able to see Xiaoru's problems is not something ordinary people can do."

He praised Chu Ci, then his eyes fell on Suru, as if he was sighing, but also as if he was satisfied, and said: "As you said, in the past, when I lost my 'life', I really didn't care at all. There is no humanity at all, but I don’t know if it’s the sequelae of possessing too many living people for immortality. My ‘fate’ is gradually returning. Do you see my current body?”

Chu Ci looked at Su Hetu and saw that he had a skinny figure, but his face was unexpectedly rosy and shiny, and his eyes were bright and clear. If he were wearing Taoist robes, he would have a fairy-like temperament, and his image would be very similar to his master, Tianshi. "I have been using this body for more than half a century. My soul has been integrated with this body. Human life is limited. The energy of this body has reached its end. I have no intention of possessing it again, not only myself. My soul has also reached its limit, and it’s because I’ve lived enough. Really, I used to be crazy about pursuing immortality at all costs, but after I regained my human nature, I suddenly found that what I was pursuing seemed worthless. .”

"Since you don't want to live anymore, why do you want the Medicine Immortal Society to be reborn and refine the Gu Body Holy Child?"

Su Hetu glanced at Chu Ci and said, "You don't think there would be no Medicine Fairy Society without me, do you?"

Chu Ci was startled and suddenly understood, "You mean the current controller of the Yaoxian Society is someone else?"

Su Hetu nodded, shook his head, and said: "I said that the Yaoxian Society is composed of people who come from all over the world to seek immortality. As long as there are people there, the Yaoxian Society will not truly perish, even if I die. , no one will die. Before the Yaoxian Society, there may have been the Shenlong Society, the Immortality Society, etc., and there will also be various organizations after that. Their nature is the same as that of the Yaoxian Society, with names, leaders, and big names. Priests and members are not the core of the Yaoxian Society. There has been only one core of the Yaoxian Society since ancient times."

"Immortal!" Chu Ci said.

"As long as there are still people pursuing the secret of immortality, the Medicine Immortal Society will not really perish."

Su Hetu nodded slightly and said: "That's it. If we hadn't been pursuing and exploring from generation to generation, how would we have known to use the Gu-body holy boy to open the Shennong Cauldron, and how would we have known that there was an elixir of immortality in the Shennong Cauldron?"

"The elixir of immortality really exists?" Chu Ci didn't believe it. If the elixir of immortality really existed, why didn't the three emperors appear?

Su Hetu said: "It's a matter of opinion. If you say it's there, it's there. If you say it's not, it's not. After all, no one has actually opened the Shennong Cauldron so far."

Hearing this, Chu Ci was silent for a while.

Suru stood at a loss and was a little confused. She knew every word Chu Ci and the others said, but she couldn't understand them when they were put together.

"One more question, what is the relationship between Su Xiaoxiao and Suru?"

Faced with this question, Su Hetu had a rare hesitation on his face. After a while, he said: "We have the same root and the same origin. Xiaoru is the fruit I am preparing to harvest. Xiaoxiao is the crystallization of my accident. When Xiaoxiao was born, Afterwards, I no longer had any plans to live forever, so I specially arranged for someone to take away her abilities. I just wanted her to live a normal life, but I didn't want her to...
I overestimated myself. It turns out that when my power backfired, the people I controlled regained consciousness. Jiang Yi and Lan Fenghuang woke up and retaliated against me.

At first they wanted to control Xiaoxiao and Xiaoru, but for some unknown reason they changed their strategy and prepared to kill Xiaoxiao and Xiaoru directly. Xiaoru became a target because they did not have the power to kill people in the capital. , but under the threat of death, her little ability awakened, and the power of reviving corpses was further improved and optimized in her. She was deprived, fused, grown, and moved. She is almost the perfect form in my ideal, but...
She doesn't seem to want to accept her own power."

Su Hetu looked at Chu Ci and said slowly: "She seems to want to be ordinary with you more."

Chu Ci was stunned and speechless.

He had long known that with Su Xiaoxiao's ability, if she didn't want to die, no one could kill her.

Just like Su Hetu, if he hadn't lived enough, no one could punish him.

For people like them, the only thing that can really kill them is time.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and Chu Ci remained silent. Su Hetu did not disturb him and sat quietly in the center of the altar, looking up at the sky with unspeakable yearning in his eyes.

Suru looked around. She still didn't understand what happened. She seemed to know something great, but she couldn't explain what it was.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the sun gradually set in the west, and Chu Ci spoke, "How much time do you have?"

"Sunset."

"Is there any other explanation?"

"If you can, take good care of Xiaoru. He is the continuation of my life. I don't feel safe leaving it to others."

"We don't know each other well, and maybe I'll kill her."

"That's such a pity. I induced you to come here just to get you to promise me this."

"If the Shennong Cauldron had not been born, Suru would not have died. Don't mind if the Medicine Fairy is destroyed again."

"Haha, of course I don't mind. It just so happens that I lack people to be buried with me. By the way, I would like to remind you that after being dormant for so many years, they are very powerful."

"I'm not prepared to do it myself."

As Chu Ci said this, he took out a flare gun from his pocket and fired it into the sky.

call out!
Bang!
Dazzling light continued to shine under the scorching sun. Countless poisonous insects were flying in the grassland stimulated by the unusual light, and they were densely packed, like a large dark cloud floating in the low sky.

Chu Ci's scalp went numb just by looking at it. There were so many poisonous insects hidden in the seemingly beautiful grassland. If Suru hadn't led them, the Ten Thousand Snakes Valley Altar would have been doomed if they tried to get in.
