Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

Chapter 1618 Tell a lie to the future

"If it doesn't work in the next life, then the next life, or even longer years, it doesn't matter."

Chihuo smiled and said, "If we can't enter the immortal path after reincarnation, the life of mortals will only be a hundred years."

"Even if we have been in reincarnation for dozens of times, it's only a few thousand years."

"Even if it's tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, what's the matter? Senior, you coexist with the incense peach wood. Hundreds of thousands of years are only one-tenth or one-twelfth of your life span, right?"

"Such a long time, so many reincarnations, you can always find us, right?"

"In fact, we are much luckier than others to know you, senior."

Chihuo looked at Zhao Mu, his eyes full of gratitude.

Although it is said in ancient times that people who own incense peach wood have a certain chance to coexist with incense peach wood and gain a long life with the help of peach wood.

But chance is something that is hard to explain. No one knows what kind of chance is needed to coexist with incense peach wood?

Therefore, although there are many people who have owned incense peach wood in history, there are almost no people who can really live forever with incense peach wood.

At least in the ancient books of immortal cultivators, there is no clear record of which person has achieved immortality through incense peach wood.

Because of this, most people actually regard the symbiosis of incense peach wood as a legend made up by their predecessors.

At the same time, although many people in the world today know that Wanyu Taoist has incense peach wood, almost no one has thought that Wanyu Taoist has actually used incense peach wood to have a long life.

Even Chi Huo and other close people would never believe it if Zhao Mu hadn't told them in person.

Until now, Chi Huo still remembers how shocked he was when the person in front of him told him that he had symbiosis with incense peach wood.

Chi Huo is very grateful that Zhao Mu trusts him and is willing to tell him such a shocking secret.

He could not help but persuade him: "Senior, you should not tell others about the symbiosis with the incense peach wood easily in the future, otherwise it will inevitably cause trouble."

"Why, are you afraid that someone will kill me and rob the incense peach wood?" Zhao Mu asked with a smile.

"This..."

Chi Huo was speechless, and then he remembered that with this person's strength, no one in the world would dare to do anything to him.

"Okay, I know you are kind."

Zhao Mu patted Chi Huo on the shoulder and smiled: "Don't worry, I have only told a few of you about the symbiosis with the incense peach wood. As for other people, I will never tell them."

He would naturally not take the initiative to tell outsiders, but he also believed that sooner or later this secret would be leaked and known to outsiders.

In fact, Zhao Mu's original plan was to only tell the incense gods about his symbiosis with the incense peach wood.

After all, if nothing unexpected happens, those gods who rely on the incense peach wood to survive will always follow him for a very long time.

In this way, Zhao Mu naturally had to find a reasonable excuse for his immortality that would convince everyone.

But as he met more and more masters in recent years, he had a deeper understanding of this world.

Especially after meeting the time cyclers like the Prophet Saint Emperor, and more and more contact with things related to immortals.

For example, Liangping!

For example, the Immortal Gate!

For example, the Eternal Sky Lock!

For example, the Wordless Heavenly Book!

Zhao Mu suddenly realized that he could not keep his immortality secret forever.

There are too many weird people and weird means in this world.

The secret of his immortality will eventually be exposed one day in the future.

In this case, instead of passively exposing it, he might as well take the initiative to guide things towards the future he wants from now on.

What is his most core secret, immortality?

Yes, but not right!

The most core and most unrevealed secret should actually be the source of immortality.

In other words, the key point is the fruit of reincarnation.

The secret that he should really keep is actually the fruit of reincarnation.

And what is the best way to keep a secret in this world?

Killing to silence people?

No!

Killing to silence people is just the most direct, violent, but sometimes the most ineffective way to keep secrets!

Because you can never be sure that you have really killed all the people who know the secrets.

What's more, this is a world where great power is concentrated in individuals, with means such as deduction of heaven's secrets, manipulation of fate, and reversal of cause and effect.

Even if you really kill all the people who know the secrets, there are still people who can find out your secrets through various means.

So in Zhao Mu's opinion, the best way to keep secrets in the world is to use another seemingly true secret and tell a half-true and half-false lie to divert everyone's attention before the real secret is exposed.

And this seemingly true secret cannot be deliberately promoted and spread by oneself. It is best to let some interested people find it out by themselves after all the hardships, so that people can be convinced.

So from many years ago, whether Yun Zhilan died, Bai Xiang, or Sun Miao died, Zhao Mu would find them and give them two choices.

Either enter the netherworld and wait for reincarnation, or turn to the way of the gods to obtain "immortality".

Moreover, Zhao Mu only told Yun Zhilan and a few other close friends about this matter, and never mentioned it to outsiders.

Zhao Mu didn't know when the secret of his "immortality" would be exposed.

Maybe tens of thousands of years later?

Maybe tens or even millions of years?

Or maybe after a longer period of time?

Zhao Mu believed that someone would know the secret of his "immortality" at some point.

And the other party would definitely find out the source of his "immortality" by deducing the secrets of the past.

In this way, the other party could deduce that he had given Chi Huo, Yun Zhilan and others a choice in the present "past".

And the other party would naturally know that his "immortality" came from the symbiosis with the incense peach wood.

Since he already knew his "immortality secret", the other party would naturally stop exploring his deeper secrets.

The fruit of the reincarnation path would not be exposed.

As for whether the other party would come to rob the incense peach wood?

Zhao Mu didn't care at all!

As the saying goes, things are precious because they are rare. If necessary, Zhao Mu would not mind breaking off thousands of peach wood branches and scattering them all over the world.

Don't you want to live forever?

Don't you want to rob the incense peach wood?

You don't have to fight for it. There are incense peach wood branches everywhere. Anyone who sees it can take it. Just take it and cultivate it yourself!

If someone doesn't know how to cultivate it, Zhao Mu doesn't mind teaching them how to cultivate a lush and leafy incense peach wood.

As for whether you can coexist with the incense peach wood in the end, it depends on your own chance.

If you can't coexist, you can only blame your bad character, not my teaching!
