Chapter 186: Born in the Present, Living in the Past
Many immortal kings were shocked!
The first spiritual root actually flew back and made an angry sound. Who was the person who spoke? Could it be the creature who sold the fake medicine?
Could it be that one-sixth of the body of the man who sold fake medicine has completely revived?
Everyone's expressions became solemn. This creature's cultivation was terrifying to the extreme. He could roam freely in the sea of boundaries. No one could underestimate him. Even if they were at their peak, they might not be able to fight against the person who sold fake medicine.
Moreover, that creature actually called Shi Ziling "Old Gravehead", and seemed to be quite afraid of him, as if it was very reluctant to see him. It seemed that there was a big cause and effect between the two of them.
Shi Ziling was stunned. Why did the creature in the spiritual root speak like that?
"Well, old man, how come you are getting younger and younger, and your Taoism has degenerated to this extent." The creature in the spiritual root was surprised. At this moment, the small tree was glowing and floating up.
Everyone was an Immortal King. When they heard this, their eyes moved slightly. They were surprised. Old Grave? Fellow Daoist of Samsara still had such a name. They seemed to have forgotten to call the Immortal King of Samsara such a name.
The supreme powerful men of the past might have nicknames, and their fame might even surpass their real selves. For example, this man who sells fake medicine is an alternative name given to him by some powerful men.
For example, there was a creature in the past who proved his truth by killing. He killed all living beings and the first person of all tribes. All the dead creatures were called pigs by him, so he was called the pig killer, and some people called him the butcher.
Another example is the Immortal King who is known as the Chicken Raiser. He is a giant with amazing strength in the ancient burial area. He once picked up a True Phoenix that failed to achieve Nirvana and saved it. After that, the True Phoenixes that had been buried in the tomb for a long time and had communicated with spirits were raised like chickens at the doorstep of the living creature.
What does this old grave represent? A grave is a pile of earth where the dead are buried! What is the story behind this?
Shi Ziling's eyes flashed, his brows slightly furrowed, and he was also thinking. He looked at the fairy root and did not speak for a while.
Why did this person call him Old Grave, and why did he seem to be able to control this spiritual root? There must be a past between the two of them, even beyond the ancient times, and can be traced back to an even more ancient time.
"And why can I control him?"
Shi Ziling was a little surprised. He could see that the small tree did not fly out voluntarily, but after he opened his mouth, a terrible force of law restrained it, as if this spiritual root was originally under his control!
Shi Ziling was silent. Did he have a karmic connection with this fake medicine seller? Wasn't he the Immortal King of Reincarnation? When was the old tomb called? Could it be before the Immortal Ancient Era, or even earlier?
"It seems that you have forgotten the past and gained a new life." The man selling fake medicine saw Shi Ziling looking a little confused, and then he reacted. His tone was surprisingly light, as if he had breathed a long sigh of relief.
"You old immortal, you have been born again and again. I really don't know how long you have lived. Every time you haunt me like a ghost, you can be found even in such a barren place. You really are a ghost that won't go away." This is the voice of the first spiritual root.
The spiritual roots in the small tree were resentful and complaining, as if they were holding a deep grudge.
"Well, are you going to defy fate? You are getting younger and younger. Are you a person who was born in this life but lives in the past?" Such an exclamation was heard from the man selling fake medicine inside the small tree.
"Born in this world, but living in the past!" Everyone was shocked. This was so shocking that it must involve a great secret of the ages.
"Can you tell me what you know?" Shi Ziling narrowed his eyes slightly. He always felt that he had a great cause and effect relationship with this man who sold fake medicine. The relationship between the two was very complicated and could not be explained in a few words.
True Dragon, Willow God, and Kunpeng all looked serious at this moment, feeling that they had touched upon the eternal secret, and they were very serious, wanting to hear the truth from the fake medicine seller. "You are a..." Just as the fake medicine seller opened his mouth, as if he had touched upon some taboo, a fairy thunder fell, and the first spiritual root that was struck trembled, and a piece of it was charred.
Moreover, the immortal thunder seemed to target only the spiritual roots. Even though the spiritual roots were very close to Shi Ziling and the others, apart from the spiritual roots, no one else felt the slightest fear or threat.
"Why is this happening?" Shi Ziling's eyes moved slightly, and he was surprised by the sudden arrival of thunder.
"Because your conversation involves some major events in the past, present and future, which may affect eternity and the final direction of the long river of time, so it was blocked and you were punished by heaven!"
The Willow Goddess spoke. She was originally standing there, almost in the air, emitting a misty haze and a hazy fairy charm. At this moment, her expression changed slightly.
"Damn it!" The first spiritual root sank and vibrated all over, shaking off the charred parts. The spiritual root became sacred and peaceful again. It was obvious that the thunder did not cause him serious damage.
"I still can't tell you. It involves too many things." The First Spiritual Root said with lingering fear.
"Why can I control you?" Shi Ziling was silent for a moment and then asked a selective question.
"Because, I come from..." The first spiritual root was about to speak, but was interrupted by an inexplicable force, preventing him from continuing.
boom!
Thunder and lightning roared, carrying with them fairy mist and chaotic light. They were all the most violent thunder in the world, as if God was angry. They all struck his spiritual roots, shaking him violently and nearly exploding.
Everyone was stunned. This thunder tribulation was too terrifying and almost untouchable. Even the immortal root was almost turned into dust.
Even though their conversations did not involve any secrets and did not discuss major events of the past and present, they still encountered heavenly punishment and their bodies were covered by the power of heaven.
"No, I really can't say any more!" The man who sold fake medicine among the spiritual roots was a little terrified. He had a premonition that if he said too much, some power in the world would not let him go, and might even destroy his body in this elixir, making him unable to recover again, and it might even affect several other parts.
"Why wasn't I punished?" Shi Ziling was somewhat puzzled. Logically speaking, if the two were talking, shouldn't they be robbed at the same time?
"How should I know!" The man who sold fake medicine was indignant, and a trace of resentment emerged in his heart. He also wanted to know why only he was struck down and not the old grave, since he had obviously violated the taboo.
"Is there anything else we can talk about, such as our relationship?" Shi Ziling asked.
"Well, I won't say much. The relationship between you and me is very complicated. Generally speaking, I still owe you. The cause in the past will lead to the result today. It really cannot be avoided." The man selling fake medicine sighed slightly with emotion.
"In that case, you will follow me from now on!" Shi Ziling turned his eyes and looked at the first spiritual root and said this?
