Eternal Life: My Millennia in the Jiaofang Division

Zhao Mu walked out of the cave.

This is a towering mountain, and the exit of the cave where Zhao Mu is located is at the foot of the mountain.

Looking up, he saw a mighty river flowing down the plain in front of him, flowing to the endless distance.

On both sides of the river, there appeared prosperous cities, with countless people living in them.

Such a scene of worldly affairs is actually very common in the world.

But what really surprised Zhao Mu was that, if he remembered correctly, when he entered the cave, there should be only an endless wasteland at the foot of the mountain.

What river!

What city!

What people!

Everything should be gone, but what is the situation now?

"Could it be..."

Zhao Mu suddenly thought of a possibility, so he quickly calculated with his fingers.

Soon he smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I didn't expect that five hundred years have passed since my retreat this time."

Yes, it has been five hundred years since the original battle of Tree Island.

In five hundred years, many changes have taken place in the world.

For example, the cities at the foot of the mountain were built in a mortal kingdom more than 300 years ago.

For more than 300 years, the people in that kingdom worked hard and made their country stronger and stronger, and also dug a long artificial Grand Canal.

The existence of the Grand Canal connected two natural rivers, making the water transportation in this kingdom prosperous, and further promoting the development of the country.

Of course, the operation and development of the mortal kingdom is not too concerned for a cultivator like Zhao Mu who has seen thousands of years.

He just couldn't help but sigh that the saying "there is no time in cultivation" is indeed not a lie.

"During this retreat, I don't seem to have a clear sense of the passage of time?"

Zhao Mu guessed that it should be in the process of refining three drops of heart blood and cracking the secret of the nine-color glass lamp that his mind was shocked by the power in it, so he didn't feel the passage of time.

"Five hundred years?"

"Haha, why is it five hundred years? Are some things really destined?"

Zhao Mu chuckled, suddenly jumped up, and turned into a stream of light and flew away.

Earlier, he saw an interesting future in his deduction, and that scene happened today, five hundred years later.

I have to admit that some things in this world are indeed caused by chance.

For example, I happened to wake up today.

Half a day later, Zhao Mu came to the sky above a city.

This city is called Changzhou City, a city in the mortal kingdom of Nanzhao.

At this time, Zhao Mu hid his tracks and slowly landed in a yard.

The owner of this yard was surnamed Li, a wealthy and prestigious family in Changzhou City. At this time, the owner of the family, Li Yishan, was anxiously waiting at the door of a house.

Heart-wrenching shouts and the encouragement of the midwife came from the house.

Zhao Mu fell silently and stared at the closed door.

"Haha, Daoyuan, I didn't expect that we are really destined. The first acquaintance I met after five hundred years of seclusion would be you."

Zhao Mu muttered with interest.

That's right, the baby who was about to be born in the room was the reincarnation of Monk Daoyuan.

According to the information seen in the deduction of Hun Tian Ji, after the four major sects opened the entrance to the world of ruins, Monk Daoyuan also followed the elders of the Great Bodhi Temple into the Eternal Galaxy.

The Eternal Galaxy is indeed rich in cultivation resources, which is extremely beneficial to the improvement of cultivation. Monk Daoyuan has made continuous breakthroughs in cultivation in just four hundred years and entered the Life Fire Realm.

But as his cultivation became higher, Monk Daoyuan felt that his cultivation direction was wrong.

Later, as he thought about it and asked his master, Zen Master Zhikong, for advice, he finally realized what his problem was?

It turned out that before the battle of Tree Island, when he met Zhao Mu in the Azure Sky City, he had already realized his own way.

It was just that in these years of entering the Eternal Galaxy, the huge and rich cultivation resources, and the rapid progress of cultivation, made him shaken for a while, so that he deviated from his own way.

But Daoyuan is a person with deep roots after all. Even if he is confused by external desires for a while, he will eventually correct the chaos and get back on track.

When Daoyuan suddenly realized that his practice had deviated, he immediately decided to get back on track.

But these four or five hundred years of wrong practice have left indelible marks on his realm.

This mark is nothing now, but when he enters a higher realm in the future, it will eventually cause flaws in his practice.

So Daoyuan decided to disintegrate and practice again with great courage.

The so-called disintegration and re-cultivation is that the cultivator gives up the existing body and all cultivation, allowing his soul to reincarnate and practice again.

But this disintegration and re-cultivation of the cultivator is different from reincarnation in the general sense.

The latter is that after the death of the living being, with the help of the operation of the rules of heaven and earth, a new life is started with the power of heaven and earth.

Because of the promotion of the power of heaven and earth, there will be no problems with the soul and body after reincarnation, and they can fit perfectly.

But the disintegration and re-cultivation of the cultivator is different.

This is a man-made reincarnation, without the help of the power of heaven and earth, so if it is not done well, the body and soul may not fit together.

At that time, let alone re-cultivation, it will be a problem to survive.

Therefore, the cultivator who disintegrates and re-cultivates must find a mother body that suits him in advance, and then use the mother body to nurture him, and then obtain a new body that can perfectly fit him.

But even so, it does not mean that there will be no problems at all.

In addition to finding a suitable mother body and cultivating a matching body, the biggest trouble of disintegration and rebirth is awakening the memory of the past life.

Disintegration and rebirth are essentially against the will of heaven.

Therefore, in this process, the cultivator will be forcibly suppressed by the power of heaven and earth and the memory of the past life will be blocked.

In other words, after they are born, they will forget everything in the past like mortals.

However, cultivators are cultivators after all, and their minds and souls are stronger than mortals, so after rebirth, there is a certain chance of awakening memories.

And the more stable the state of mind in the previous life, the greater the chance of awakening the memory of the past life.

But no matter how high the chance is, it is not certain that the memory can be awakened. This is the biggest danger of disintegration and rebirth.

Once the memory awakening fails, the cultivator can only be completely reduced to a mortal and sink into the sea of ​​suffering.

"Because it is too dangerous, generally speaking, the disintegration and rebirth of disciples from large sects are protected by the elders of the sect."

"But why is there no one from the Great Bodhi Temple to protect Daoyuan's disintegration and rebirth? Could it be that the Eternal Galaxy cannot get out?"

"No, according to the future I saw, the Eternal Galaxy has other exits besides the Tree Island, and it should not be able to stop the masters of the Great Bodhi Temple from coming out."

"But why can't I see anyone from the Great Bodhi Temple here, but... there are demons?"

Zhao Mu was puzzled and turned his head to look outside the courtyard gate.

He could feel that there was something unclean there, trying to get in.
