True and False II

laugh.

Lin Hui stopped.

Unconvinced, he reverted to the previous tense, forcibly reversing everything here.

This time, he intensified his efforts, but to no avail; the corpses remained unchanged.

Lin Hui stopped, but a sudden doubt arose in his heart.

He glanced around again.

He leaped up quickly, traversing a vast distance in an instant, and returned along the same path.

Before long, they returned to the Formless Belt Wind Disaster.

Then, he closed his eyes to rest for a while before setting off again.

This time, instead of heading to the new address in the Wind Chime, he rushed straight back to the direction he had originally come from.

But this time, something strange happened.

One hour later.

In a completely unfamiliar Black Domain void, Lin Hui suddenly appeared, his body solidifying.

He frowned and looked around.

Not the original site...

Because the remaining Wind Energy had been completely exhausted, he could only follow his general impressions to travel back.

But the result was completely unexpected.

He... got lost!

With a flash, Lin Hui returned to the Formless Belt once more, and then flew outwards again.

This repetition brought him back to that desolate void.

Lin Hui returned without saying a word, then left again.

Time and time again.

Until the fourteenth time.

Just as he left the teleportation space, his eyes were suddenly filled with light. Countless Black Domain world spheres floated and rotated.

The vast blue Clear Jade Mountain area, suspended in the center, resembles a giant, still tornado, with special paths constructed of unknown stone extending outwards.

In his spiritual perception, countless auras of living beings surged into Lin Hui's mind.

He floated in the void, gazing at that familiar area, and then quickly sensed the Nine Heavens Gate.

Nine Heavens Gate, Seven Extinctions Mie was having tea with his old flame, Black Yin Empress. Black Elder sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, still contemplating and cultivating something in another large hall not far away.

Lin Hui breathed a sigh of relief and turned on the Wind Chime, only to find that all the previous messages and addresses had mysteriously disappeared.

It was as if nothing had happened at all in the first place.

There was no message from Su Yaping, nor was there that address that appeared out of nowhere.

Gazing at this bustling and vibrant void, he floated in place, remaining motionless for a long time.

The Black Lotus on my body was trembling again; someone had sent a message.

But he had no intention of opening it.

The same goes for the Wind Chime; new information is constantly and rapidly flowing in at this time.

It wasn't until much time had passed and Lin Hui's soul had stabilized somewhat that he opened the Black Lotus and the Wind Chime one by one.

Inside the Black Lotus, the Seven Emotions Star Lord of the Seven Emotions Merchant Alliance left a message: the new rent had been delivered, and he needed to go and take over.

Inside the Wind Chime was Su Yaping's routine report on the current overall data of Clear Jade Mountain.

Everything is the same as it was years ago, unchanged.

Lin Hui carefully returned to the Clear Jade Mountain courtyard with the collected constant substance.

In the courtyard, the enormous Pear Tree had grown so large that it completely shaded the sky above the entire yard, and the gentle Wind Energy constantly turned into a light gust, swirling around it.

"Wu Anning greets the Mountain Lord." Wu Anning, who was meditating inside, sensed something and quickly stood up, bowing to Lin Hui who entered.

Although she has long since established her own family, she still comes here from time to time to tend to the yard and clean, just like she did back then.

There was practically nothing to clean.

Lin Hui nodded, looking at Wu Anning as she appeared.

She's getting old, and even with the amplification of her intelligence from the Supreme Omniscience Seal, her cultivation aptitude has its limits. She's never been able to cross the threshold of materialization.

For thousands of years, her appearance has remained unchanged, but her spirit has faintly revealed a hint of decline.

"I'm only back temporarily, and I don't plan to stay any longer. How are you doing?" Lin Hui asked casually.

Wu Anning briefly explained his situation.

She has now severed most of her ties with her family, not voluntarily, but as time went by, generation after generation of family members, and the newborn children, had less and less contact with her. Naturally, they gradually faded away.

Now she prefers to spend her time at Clear Jade Mountain and Heart Source Demon Palace. Everyone there is a familiar face, an old friend she knows, with whom she shares a long-standing bond, making her feel more comfortable.

While the two were talking, Su Yaping rushed back and immediately beamed with joy upon seeing Lin Hui.

He and Yun Xiazi, who arrived shortly after, stepped forward to pay their respects.

As time went by, the gap between them and Lin Hui widened, causing them to become increasingly reserved in Lin Hui's presence.

So many years have passed, and they are still the same. Their cultivation level has been stuck at the materialization energy level, with no new progress.

This is the norm for most geniuses; once they reach this stage, it usually takes tens of thousands of years to make even the slightest progress.

Lin Hui inquired about their recent situations one by one.

As more and more accurate information entered his mind, and with Su Yaping sending someone to deliver the new rent for the Seven Emotions Merchant Alliance, he finally confirmed that everything before him was real.

Half an hour later, after everyone had left, the courtyard returned to peace.

Lin Hui stood alone under the Pear Tree.

Recalling everything that had just happened, a thought flashed through his mind, and the next moment he returned directly to the Heart Source Demon Palace.

It appeared before Fusheng was dozing off.

"Long time no see, Senior Fusheng."

"Isn't this something I saw hundreds of years ago? What do you mean 'long time ago'?" Fusheng said helplessly. He was still a little annoyed to be disturbed while dozing off.

"Senior, you were also a top expert back then. Did you ever feel what I am feeling now?" Lin Hui said in a deep voice. He immediately recalled everything he had encountered before, turned it into a stream of information, cut out some key parts, and transmitted it into Fusheng's soul.

"You...!!!" Fusheng quickly glanced through it and immediately gasped.

"Heart Disaster! This is!! A complete reconstruction of the destroyed Clear Jade Mountain, all specifically designed to target you... Tsk tsk..."

Big spender!

"Senior, you noticed that too?" Lin Hui asked.

"I can't believe it. Everything is real, which is the most terrifying aspect of the Heart Disaster. So I don't understand how you judged that it was all fake? If it were me, I would definitely have been fooled." Fusheng was amazed.

"I have my own methods." Lin Hui naturally wouldn't admit that he only realized something was wrong because of the Blood Seal.

On the return journey, due to the extreme distance, it was necessary to traverse and tear through space over a large distance.

On several occasions when he tore through space, he received inexplicable warnings from the Eternal True Order Essence.

A warning emerged from the Blood Seal: his Eternal True Order Essence had been affected by an unknown spatial distortion, causing his travel coordinates to shift.

After several such deviations, he ultimately returned to Clear Jade Mountain, which was the core reason for his suspicions.

"Incredible..." Fusheng exclaimed again. "To be able to detect something amiss so quickly, amazing! I was nearly killed by the Heart Disaster several times back then. It was a terrible ordeal. If only I had half your alertness... sigh..."

"How can I, a junior, minimize the impact of the various Source Disaster? I humbly request your guidance, senior," Lin Hui said, bowing. "Currently, my cultivation is stuck at a crucial point. Before long, I might reach a level where I can break your seal..."

"Guidance? What kind of guidance can Heart Disaster offer? Even Celestial Venerables have died before it. This thing is impossible to defend against. That's why many experts live in seclusion, indifferent to all external things. This way, they can remain unaffected, which is the best way to deal with Heart Disaster," Fusheng said. "Otherwise, as long as you have anything you care about, this thing will find an opening to attack. Also, you are currently in the period of Source Disaster erosion, so it's best to stay away from the surrounding area as much as possible. Wait another 100,000 years, and you'll have a period of stability. Then you can return."

"One hundred thousand years..." Lin Hui has been cultivating for less than ten thousand years since he began... and yet he's talking about one hundred thousand years...

"You've just reached the starting point of Thought Endures Eternally. This stage of cultivation takes a lot of time, so take it easy," Fusheng advised. "Given your current level, be careful. Living for billions of years is easy enough; don't worry about this short period."

Lin Hui remained silent.

He had already sensed that, with his return, subtle Source Disaster rifts had begun to reappear around Clear Jade Mountain.

Clearly, with the depletion of the shielding constant material and the absence of Wind Disaster to block and protect him, he once again attracted the encroachment and encirclement of other Source Disaster.

If we don't leave soon, we might end up like last time, being ganged up on by the four major Source Disaster.

"Thank you, senior." He immediately clasped his hands in a salute and vanished from his spot in an instant.

After devouring the Source Disaster that appeared around him, Lin Hui collected the rent, left a few words for Su Yaping, and then left Clear Jade Mountain, returning to the boundary of the Formless Belt.

The Formless Belt can be offset by stripping away Wind Energy, thus allowing them to persist indefinitely.

What was extremely dangerous for other individuals became a relatively safe haven for him.

Here, at least you don't have to worry about the other four major Source Disaster coming to besiege you.

So he simply started his spiritual practice right there, with the Thought Endures Eternally.

The materials to reshape the perfect body are in place, and the cultivation technique has been evolved. Next, it's time to truly get started.

All the Phantom Wind Silver Sand were gathered together and condensed within his body to form a miniature body that was exactly the same as his own.

This body has the appearance of a human and possesses all human organs, but this is only the beginning.

The first five senses are the easiest to develop because humans are born with them; this is the optimal structure that has evolved naturally. The most difficult part is to continuously add new senses.

Because this kind of increase cannot be achieved simply by transplanting it.

A perfect body requires no flaws, so transplantation is not an option; instead, natural growth should be guided.

Only a practitioner who has an unparalleled understanding of themselves can, from a very high macroscopic perspective, guide their perfect body to spontaneously grow organs of various dimensions.

This process requires an extremely long evolutionary period.

Lin Hui focused all his attention on cultivation, completely forgetting everything else.

Despite this, he was still constantly influenced by various familiar voices, messages, and people through the Wind Chime and the Black Lotus, trying to pull him out of the Formless Belt.

To avoid interference, he simply used his accumulated Existence Force to collect more constant matter and create an evolved, fully enclosed robe that could completely seal him off.

After its evolution, this robe reached the quality standards used by the Celestial Venerables, completely isolating Lin Hui from external interference.

From then on, he completely immersed himself in his self-cultivation.

Meanwhile, the world outside has undergone tremendous changes and transformations, a thousand years after his passing.

Su Yaping and her group can still keep the situation under control, and eliminating the Black Elder's assistant in Seven Extinctions shouldn't be a big problem.

However, as time went on, the Seven Emotions Business Alliance discovered that Lin Hui of Qingfei Mountain had not shown up for a long time, and some merchants began to delay rent payments.

Fortunately, the Rongchang Star Lord intervened in time to uphold justice and temporarily quell the unrest.

But as time went by, Lin Hui never showed up again, and a full ten thousand years passed. The Rongchang Star Lord also reached the time when he should avoid the erosion of his own Source Disaster, and Clear Jade Mountain was left without anyone to protect it. The Seven Emotions Merchant Alliance began to revert to its old ways.

On the one hand, after Lin Hui left, Wind Energy became scarce, causing the protection it provided to the surrounding area to weaken rapidly.

Secondly, their original purpose in aligning with Qingfei Mountain was to profit from reselling. With weak Wind Energy and a significant decline in Clear Jade Mountain's strength, its siphon effect on the surrounding area has rapidly diminished. Subleasing is no longer as profitable, so naturally, they have chosen to withdraw one after another.

Neither the Wind Chime nor the Black Lotus can contact Lin Hui now. This has led to rumors that Lin Hui may have already perished, and the Wind Energy is still there only because his remains are still there, allowing the basic Wind Energy cycle to continue.
