Holy Shit, Was He an Actor?
The Unseen, Lin Yunji had a feeling that, in comparison, the rebirth of the Heavenly Venerable Fanti from death was even more mysterious.
"Holy Lord, do you say that after death, one can come back to life?"
Lin Yunji asked the Saint Venerable Daweide.
The latter shook his head, but nodded slightly, "Chang Yanzi's body can be brought back to life, but his primordial spirit has been annihilated."
Even if a new spirit were to emerge from his remaining memories, it would only be someone else possessing those memories.
"Chang Yanzi is dead. Once he's dead, he can never come back to life."
Faced with the words of the Saint Venerable Daweide, Lin Yunji could only laugh in disbelief this time.
He knew that the Saint Venerable Daweide had misunderstood him; most likely Saint Venerable Daweide thought he was referring to the matter of Chang Yanzi.
"No," Lin Yunji shook his head and said, "I mean, if you, Holy Venerable, were to perish after a fierce battle with a powerful enemy, and your primordial spirit were annihilated, could you come back to life?"
Having understood Lin Yunji's words, the Supreme Daweide immediately shook his head, "That's naturally unacceptable."
"Really not going to work?" Lin Yunji was taken aback.
"That's obviously not acceptable."
The Saint Venerable Daweide chuckled. He seemed to find Lin Yunji's words somewhat nonsensical.
"Is it possible that the primordial spirit died, but comprehended the principles of life and death, and thus defied death to be reborn?" Lin Yunji asked the Saint Venerable Daweide again.
"Impossible." The Saint Venerable Daweide shook his head again.
"Death is death. Once the primordial spirit is destroyed, everything is gone and meaningless."
Even if the body doesn't die and can develop a new consciousness, it will have no relation to the original primordial spirit.
"Could other Supreme possibly do this?" Lin Yunji pressed further, "I mean, Immortal Venerable Hongluo, Emperor Venerable Wuxuan, and the others."
"That's impossible too." The Saint Venerable Daweide shook his head.
"Although different people will inevitably have different paths of cultivation, at our level, we have actually arrived at the same destination through different paths."
I believe Fellow Lin Yunji understands this point as well.
"What I can't do, they certainly can't do either."
The very idea of defying death to be reborn is impossible. How can one defy death and be reborn after death?
"Hiss!!" As the words of the Saint Venerable Daweide fell, Lin Yunji gasped, his expression becoming extremely solemn.
He then asked, "Is it possible to achieve this at a level higher than the Supreme Primordial Unity?"
Faced with Lin Yunji's question all of a sudden, even the Supreme Daweide was somewhat puzzled.
"Fellow Lin Yunji, what's wrong? What exactly do you want to say?"
His tone suggested that he found Lin Yunji's question rather strange.
"Answer me first, is it possible to achieve this at a realm above the Supreme Primordial Unity?!" Lin Yunji insisted.
"This..." The Saint Venerable Daweide hesitated this time.
Finally, he spoke up, "I'm really not sure about that!"
"A little hesitation is acceptable," said the Saint Venerable Daweide.
"After all, I haven't broken through to a higher realm than the Supreme Primordial Unity, so I don't have enough say."
Perhaps it's possible once you reach that level of understanding.
As he said this, he added, "You should ask Fellow Daoist Binghan about this; she should know more than I do."
"Something terrible has happened!!" Lin Yunji's expression was extremely grave.
Lin Yunji then quickly told the Saint Venerable Daweide about his encounter with the Heavenly Venerable Fanti.
After Lin Yunji finished speaking, as expected, the Saint Venerable Daweide also looked solemn!
"To defy death and be reborn?! If it's true, does it mean that Fellow Fanti is about to take that step beyond my Primordial Expanse Universe, a step that none of the Venerables have taken?!"
"Possibly!" Lin Yunji.
He used to simply think that Heavenly Venerable Fanti was powerful, but now it seems that Heavenly Venerable Fanti is not just powerful, he is incredibly powerful!
"If a fellow Daoist can truly break through to the Supreme Primordial Unity, then my Primordial Expanse Universe will naturally no longer need to worry about the invasion of the Spirit God Universe."
"Even one person alone would be enough to guard the Primordial Expanse Great Formation," the Saint Venerable Daweide remarked with emotion.
"I really want to go see Fanti Vanti right now."
"Speaking of which, after the destruction of the Source Realm, billions of years have passed, and I have never seen him again." Clearly, the Saint Venerable Daweide knows the Heavenly Venerable Fanti.
"Holy Venerable, I have another question. What was the cultivation level of Heavenly Venerable Fanti in the past?" Lin Yunji asked again.
"It's alright. After all, he is the Lord of the Astral Realm."
However, among the many Lord of the Astral Realm, he was considered to be among the group with slightly lower cultivation levels.
He's probably about the same level as Chang Yanzi. Chang Yanzi and Heavenly Venerable Fanti were close friends, if I'm not mistaken.
"When Chang Yanzi Brother Changyanzi perished, he was most likely staying as a guest at the Heavenly Venerable Fanti's place," the Saint Venerable Daweide replied after a moment's thought.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yunji exclaimed in shock, "Something terrible has happened!!"
"Holy Venerable, do you have any means to contact Immortal Venerable Hongluo and the others?!" Lin Yunji asked the Saint Venerable Daweide anxiously.
"What's wrong?" The Saint Venerable Daweide was still in a daze. He was quite puzzled by Lin Yunji's sudden actions.
"I have a guess in my mind! That Heavenly Venerable Fanti might be a fake!" Lin Yunji said urgently.
"Fake?!" The Saint Venerable Daweide was somewhat puzzled.
But soon, as if he had thought of something, his expression also changed drastically.
"You mean the person you met wasn't Supreme Fanti!"
Instead, he was one of the Thirteen Great Bandits of the Spirit God Universe who attacked the Source Realm and was ultimately killed by us?!
Moreover, he did not die completely; on the contrary, at the moment of his death, he comprehended the mystery of defying death and being reborn, and was about to break through to the realm of the Great Creation God?!
Upon thinking of this, the Saint Venerable Daweide's expression also turned ashen.
"Exactly!!" Lin Yunji said urgently.
"This is terrible!" The Saint Venerable Daweide's face was extremely grim.
"Let's go! We're going to the Source Realm Ruins!" Saint Venerable Daweide immediately said.
He immediately wanted to set off for the Source Realm Ruins.
"No!" At this moment, Lin Yunji grabbed him. "With just the two of us, we might not be able to kill him! Don't alert him!"
"Yes! I was being reckless!" The Saint Venerable Daweide was startled and felt a slight sense of lingering fear.
He was too hasty and almost made a mistake.
If this Heavenly Venerable Fanti is truly problematic, then he really was one of the Thirteen Great Bandits who perished back then.
Moreover, they are about to break through to the realm of the Great Creation God. If the two of them rush over like this, they may not only fail to kill it, but may also be harmed by the enemy!
"And it might not be as we think. It's possible that it really is the Heavenly Venerable Fanti, who, at the critical moment of life and death, comprehended the mystery of defying death and surviving," Lin Yunji said.
