The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 705 Could This Friend You Said Be Yourself?

It has been sealed in ice for an unknown number of years, except for Ao San's uncle and grandpa who will come to catch up every few decades, Ymir has no one to talk to here, so when he sees Lin Tianci was very talkative, and he didn't have the airs of a big boss with the ability to destroy the world.

But when it came to the question of why he was here, Ymir remained silent, and at the same time closed his eyes with pale golden pupils. The length of silence made Lin Tianci think he was asleep for a while.

It took a while before he spoke again, his voice was a little hoarse, or choked up.

"This is a story so stupid that anyone who hears it will find it hopeless."

他 说:

"I have a friend who has shown outstanding talent since he was a child. He can easily learn to understand no matter how obscure and difficult magic knowledge is. He is the best in the school and the focus of everyone."

The friend you are talking about is not yourself, is it?
Is it a friend out of thin air?

Seeing the atmosphere, Brother Lin forcibly suppressed his complaints, and heard Ymir continue:
"Parents are proud of him, peers look up to him as a role model, and tutors are incredibly proud of being able to teach such outstanding students. He is a smart elf, from a young age, thinking that he would never make any stupid mistakes, which is Confidence is also ego."

He said, his tone seemed to be talking about other people's things:
"Things are also developing as everyone expected. After he graduated from school, he entered the army and absorbed any knowledge at an extremely fast speed. He once accompanied countless magical weapons in the north and south, and made great achievements. At the same time, he His magic skills also became more and more superb. When he came back to his senses, he had already stood at the top of all his peers. His career was booming, and he also met the love of his life and got married. Soon they had a daughter , a treasure unmatched by anything in the world.”

This sounds like a personal winner's story, obviously not getting to the 'stupid' part yet.

"Gradually, his status became higher and higher, and the resources at hand became more and more abundant, which greatly reduced the difficulty of studying magic, and he became stronger and stronger."

Ymir sighed:
"But I started to become dissatisfied."

I used 'friend' just now, and now it directly becomes me.

But Ymir himself didn't seem to notice, and continued to talk about his past:

"Where is the apex of magic? It's an abyss that even Mannamora can't peek into. But I want to challenge in vain, and the direction I'm going for is..."

"Life magic."

Sally interjected:
"Your achievements in life magic have so far been unmatched."

"But this is the beginning of my stupidity."

Ymir looked very annoyed, his tone was full of remorse:
"Where is the dividing line between life and objects? No one can solve this problem. My research results show that the body is just a shell, and what really matters is the soul."

It is also because of this that he wrote "The Stitching Collection of Thousands of Things" and "Pedigree of All Things", which can stitch everything together.

"I started dabbling in taboos, studying the nature of the soul."

Lin Tianci only felt his scalp tingling when he heard this. Even in the enlightened Eastern China, everything related to the soul is absolutely forbidden to be touched.You can kill and set fire to commit crimes, but if you touch this aspect, it will lead to the encirclement and suppression of monks all over the world, and it will be tolerated by heaven.

Such people are evil cultivators.

"The soul can be split and spliced, reshaped, and even created out of thin air. Why is this all?"

With this question in mind, he wrote the "Handbook of Soul Splicing".

"I started to do experiments, experimenting with new ideas again and again. I don't know how many souls of creatures have died, and I found that compared to beasts with low intelligence, the souls of intelligent creatures are more experimental. Humans, dwarves , halflings, orcs, etc., have all been used as test subjects by me."

他 说:

"At that time, I seemed to have found the goal of my life. I could unravel a mystery that no one knew. I could unravel the greatest gift left by the Creator God to mortals, what is the essence of the soul."

Lin Tianci said in a deep voice:

"You are in a demon."

Being addicted to one thing is not a bad thing, but excessive addiction will make intelligent creatures become unscrupulous.

"I've gone mad and I've done the stupidest things."

His voice trembled:

"An accident that no one can blame caused my daughter to die. In addition to grief, I set my sights on my own research."

"Resurrection, is it that difficult?"

Brother Lin was a little puzzled, but it is not easy for monks of the sect to be resurrected, as long as the corpse is intact, they can tell Hades that they want to return their souls.

Sally explained:
"The underworld of your Eastern Shenzhou is in the same place as the underworld, but the rules are different. Any soul that enters the underworld must not go out. This has nothing to do with the god of death who is in charge of the underworld."

"Yes, even I can't bring back my daughter's soul, so I thought of reshaping, reshaping a soul for my daughter, and matching her soul quality, it can be resurrected perfectly."

The soul is composed of soul and soul quality. It is essentially the same theory as the three souls and seven souls of Eastern Shenzhou. Soul quality represents your past and everything about you.

Since the soul cannot be recalled, the soul quality can be stripped and a soul rebuilt.

The idea is indeed practical, but...

This is a dead end.

Ymir continued:

"The reshaping of the soul is very difficult. My research is not perfect, and every time I reshape a soul, I have to stuff it into my daughter's body and integrate it into the soul quality test. If it is not as expected, it can only make it return to nothingness, but It required killing my 'daughter' over and over again until I found the right way."

"That's impossible, the soul is irreplaceable."

"Blue Fairy, I understand what you're saying, but I was much more conceited back then, and nothing can stop me."

Obsessive obsession usually does not end well.

"Ordinary 'materials' cannot meet the conditions for reshaping the soul, so I began to look at my fellow elves, and even my beloved wife..."

No amount of remorse is enough to describe Ymir's current mood, he choked up and said:

"My pride has led me to commit the most irreparable crimes and the most stupid things. The council sensed that something was wrong, broke into my laboratory and killed all my 'daughters' and 'wives' , Impose eternal freezing punishment on me."

"It's no wonder that our blue goblin's records are vague to you, so there is still such a secret."

Sai Li can understand, but brother Lin is a little puzzled.

Why not a death sentence?According to his own description, this buddy was not wronged by Ling Chi.

"The ancient elves did not impose the death penalty on their compatriots. Elves who committed serious crimes would be judged as 'Forsworn', which means 'betrayed the oath of the World Tree'. Usually, such elves would be put into special coffins."

"Starvation and suffocation are not death sentences?"

"The ancient elves are semi-energy creatures. They will not die because they can't breathe or eat. Almost all the elves who are sealed in the coffin commit suicide because of darkness and boredom."

Brother Lin shuddered, as if he didn't know the joy of being directly sentenced to death.

Ymir waited for Celie to finish her research, and continued:
"I am frozen here, and I have to look at the scenery above every day. The happiness of each elf family is the greatest punishment for me."

This trick is really cruel...

"Until one day, the entire facility was blocked and all the elves were evacuated."

That should be the day of the 'big disaster'.

"The energy source of the facility was shut down due to unknown turbulent fluctuations, and the ice that trapped me began to melt. I have left this place before."

"Then why are you still here?"

"Because I want to die."

What is the reason?
"I want to blend into the eternal vein of the World Tree, where I can find peace and see my wife and daughter."

In the belief of the ancient elves, every dead elf will be integrated into the veins of the world tree and become a part of the world.

"After I went out, I tried every means to kill myself. I bombarded myself 1000 times with meteor bursts. I went to the sky sanctuary and the endless abyss to get the blood of angels and demons and inject it into my body at the same time. Die by myself. But as you can see, I tortured myself into this appearance, and still failed.”

Lin Tianci doesn't know how powerful Meteor Burst is, but he can tell from the name that it's not a weakling. He has been bombed more than 1000 times without dying...

Is this vitality too tenacious?

"Ymir is the magic lord who is best at life magic. You have transformed yourself perfectly with magic."

"This used to be the place I was most proud of, but it has become my shackles. Even though I am trapped here, waiting to decay for a long time, I still maintain my sanity, and I can't even become a madman to gain a moment of peace. "

His transformation of himself is not limited to his body, but his mind has also been transformed to be extremely strong. Anyway, ten thousand years have passed, and even the ancient elves with an average age of 1500 years should have gone crazy long ago.

"When I tried my best to kill myself, Manna Mora found me, and she froze me down again, because my punishment is 'permanent freezing', and death is a relief for me, which cannot Punishment for the crimes I committed. The pipeline behind it is sucking my magic power all the time, and at the same time maintaining my life that should have died long ago. I will not die, but I cannot die."

Immortality is the harshest punishment.

This is true for both short-lived humans and longer-lived ancient elves.

The time that Ymir has experienced here will be his torture, which is more frightening than execution with a single knife.

He couldn't die, he couldn't live, he couldn't even go insane, he could only confess his crimes every day facing the ice that wouldn't melt.

"It's a stupid story, right? I told you earlier, and anyone who hears it will feel extremely stupid."

After listening to his narration, Lin Tianci frowned, as if thinking about something, and said after a while:

"Sounds like you deserve it."

"I don't blame anyone for this. It is true that I deserve what I deserve, but I beg you, Lin Tianci from Eastern Shenzhou, to grant me an equal death."

Ymir has been frozen for more than 1 years, which sounds a bit pitiful, but who should the lives tortured by him to the point of being frightened and scattered?
A person repents, sincerely repents, as the saying goes, if a prodigal son turns back, he will not be exchanged for money, the world will give sinners a chance to redeem their sins, but this chance should not be decided by Lin Tianci.

He is just an outsider who has heard the story. Even if he acts with subjective judgment, it is difficult to make a decision.
