Volume 12 is missing Chapter 24 Whale Fall
It is also a small world that evolved inside the immortal whale, but the difference between it and the small world that Lu Qingshan had visited before is really too huge.
This place is like a paradise, magnificent and boundless, and even the powerful Wind Clan lives here.
Lu Qingshan looked around and answered Feng Mo's question at the same time: "Yes."
He knew that the whale god Feng Mo mentioned was the giant immortal whale that carried Qingcang Island.
Feng Mo frowned tightly, feeling both puzzled and bewildered.
Over the years, the Whale God has been sleeping most of the time, and has never communicated with outsiders except their Wind Clan. Why would he look at a human cultivator differently now?
With this doubt in his mind, Feng Mo had already brought Lu Qingshan to the main city of their Feng clan, Fengjing City.
"It's worthy of being one of the seven immortal clans." Lu Qingshan looked at the huge city in front of him. It was extremely magnificent. Although it was not as magnificent as Tianhe City, it was also rare in the world. He sighed sincerely in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the interior of Fengjing City was not filled with densely packed buildings, but instead there were many sacred mountains with many caves built on the mountains.
Lu Qingshan had never seen such a city before, and it contained a kind of beauty.
"The Whale God doesn't like destruction, so for the small world it gave birth to, the principle of our Wind Clan when building cities is to cause as little destruction as possible. Most of the construction is done according to local conditions and the terrain." Feng Mo introduced, his words revealing their Wind Clan's reverence for the Immortal Whale.
After entering the city, Feng Mo took Lu Qingshan to a blue lake. The scenery here was magnificent, and there was a pavilion, which was a rare non-cave building in Fengjing City.
"May I ask, young friend, what method was used to suppress and mobilize the power of the Tianhe Sea just now?" Feng Mo asked after entering the pavilion and serving the divine wine and delicacies.
Feng Sheng and Feng Bai, who came in with them, immediately showed concerned expressions.
"Don't get me wrong," Feng Mo added, "We are not coveting your means. You have seen what happened just now. Tianhehai has ill intentions towards our Qingcang Island, and to tell you the truth, this is not the first time."
"With the help of my friend, I was lucky enough to escape this disaster this time, but it is only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure. I can't guarantee that I will have to resort to other means next time I return to Tianhehai..."
"Don't worry, my friend. We of the Feng Clan will certainly not take advantage of you for nothing. The Feng Clan's treasure house is open to you and you can choose whatever you want." Feng Mo made the promise with full sincerity.
“Sorry,” Lu Qingshan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, “This is the magic of my natal sword.”
He didn't say the whole thing, but the implication was clear.
The sword cultivator's natal sword can only be used by the sword cultivator.
When the three heard this, a hint of disappointment suddenly appeared on their faces.
"Well," Feng Mo sighed, then clasped his fists and said, "No matter what, my clan is grateful for your help this time. If you need anything, just ask, and my clan will do its best to satisfy you."
"I'm from Tianhe City," Lu Qingshan was very frank. He felt there was no need to be too euphemistic and said directly, "The purpose of my trip to Qingcang Island is to persuade your Wind Clan to join our human camp. I just happened to encounter this incident."
"Tianhe City..." Feng Mo's eyes flickered. In fact, he had expected this, but he didn't expect Lu Qingshan to be so straightforward.
"To be honest, you humans and demons have visited the island several times over the years, with the same purpose as you did this time, but we rejected them all," he said sincerely, "so it's not that we don't remember your kindness, it's just that this matter... is really hard to agree to."
"Can you change the conditions, treasures or precious materials? Our Wind Clan's treasury is open to you, and you can choose three treasures, regardless of their value."
As expected, I was rejected.
Lu Qingshan was not surprised. This was a matter concerning the future of the clan. As the helmsman of the Feng clan, Feng Mo had to be extremely cautious.
However, with his current level of cultivation, most of the treasures have lost their meaning to him - not only are there very few treasures that the Sword Sect does not have, but sword cultivators generally do not need any other external objects besides the sword.
"Why does Tianhehai have such great malice towards the nobles? " Lu Qingshan changed the subject and asked curiously.
"Didn't the Whale God tell you?" Feng Mo asked.
Lu Qingshan shook his head.
Because the signal that the Longevity Whale had previously conveyed to him was actually very simple, so simple that it could not even form a sentence. It was more like a secret language used by the same species to communicate and confirm identity.
The moment he received the signal, Lu Qingshan knew the identity of the signal initiator, the Immortal Whale.
At the same time, a certain aura hidden deep within his body was also touched.
That was the gift from the Immortal Whale, and it was also the source that attracted the Whale God to send out signals.
"In fact, Tianhehai has no so-called ill will towards our clan. Its ill will is directed at..." Feng Mo thought for a moment before speaking: "Lord Whale God."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qingshan immediately frowned.
"Why?"
He couldn't understand how Tianhehai, as the spirit of mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, could have feelings of hatred towards living beings?
Not to mention the longevity whale, a gentle and long-dormant "homebody" animal.
"What do you think of this place?" Feng Mo asked back.
"It's full of spiritual energy, a blessed place, and can be called a pure land." Lu Qingshan said.
What we saw along the way was that this place was actually a small world with no visible boundaries. There were numerous caves, countless beautiful mountains, and the spiritual energy was particularly rich.
"Moreover, this place also gave birth to our clan." Feng Mo revealed another big secret.
"The Wind Clan was born in a small world?!" Lu Qingshan was shocked.
He always thought that the Wind Clan just happened to discover the secret of the Immortal Whale, but he never thought that they were actually creatures nurtured by the small world just like the Flame Spirit and the Wood Spirit.
Feng Mo nodded, "So, we have always regarded it as a god, have great respect for the Whale God, and regard this place as our ancestral land."
"It is truly powerful that it can give birth to such a powerful race like your Wind Clan." Lu Qingshan praised sincerely.
It must be much stronger than the immortal whale he encountered in the South China Sea.
"It is said that Tianhehai has ill will towards the Whale God, but that is not true," Feng Mo finally gave an answer, "The one who truly has ill will towards the Whale God is in the sky above."
Feng Mo's words were very obscure, but Lu Qingshan understood them instantly.
"Is it the way of heaven?"
Feng Mo nodded, "The Whale God gave birth to the world and created the world by himself. In the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, this is an act of disrespect and rebellion."
"But this is not the whole reason. The fundamental reason is that the Whale God constantly absorbs the spiritual energy between heaven and earth during the process of nurturing the world."
"Although the spiritual energy absorbed by practitioners is huge, it is nothing compared to the power needed to give birth to the world."
“So, you can imagine how much spiritual energy from heaven and earth the Lord Whale God absorbed to create such a huge world.”
"According to the rules of the operation of heaven and earth, after the death of high-level cultivators like us, we will experience the phenomenon of the disappearance of the Tao and return the spiritual energy to the heaven to maintain the balance of the operation of the world."
"It's the same with spiritual beasts, but the Immortal Whale is extremely special. Ninety-nine percent of the spiritual energy they absorb is used to nurture the world, and only a very small part is used to improve their cultivation. Therefore, after they die, only this small part of the spiritual energy used to improve their cultivation will be returned to the Heavenly Dao."
"From the perspective of Heaven, the Whale God is a shameless thief who stole its wealth. Of course, it must find a way to get the wealth back."
"Tianhehai is just acting in accordance with the will of heaven." Feng Mo said.
"How do we get it back? Can we just kill it?" Lu Qingshan didn't understand. "And why didn't Tiandao take action before, but waited until now?"
"Also, why didn't the Whale God resist? To be able to give birth to such a huge world, it must be extremely powerful."
Lu Qingshan had many doubts.
"Whale God, you don't have much time left." Feng Mo said solemnly.
Lu Qingshan's pupils shrank slightly.
The Immortal Whale is named after its immortality, not to mention that it is so powerful, it seems to have nothing to do with the word "short life".
Feng Mo saw that Lu Qingshan was shocked and explained, "The Whale God has really been through too many years."
“It’s so long that no matter how far back in history you go, you can’t find the source.”
"So, even if it has an almost infinite lifespan, it is now approaching death."
"There is no true immortality in the world," he sighed.
Lu Qingshan was silent.
Just like a cultivator, once he advances to the Tribulation Realm, his lifespan is theoretically infinite .
But this kind of infinity is actually an infinity with prerequisites and has many limitations.
If a monk is willing to seal himself up and not engage in any life activities, he can indeed achieve immortality.
But as long as life activities are carried out, after a certain period of time, such as ten thousand years or one hundred thousand years, the cultivator will experience the Five Deteriorations of Heaven and Earth.
Even if you survive this time of the Five Deterioration of Heavenly Beings, after experiencing the same or longer period of time, the Five Deterioration of Heavenly Beings will come again, and with greater intensity than last time, and this cycle will continue until you die.
The only thing a monk can do is to constantly strengthen himself and make continuous breakthroughs.
Because the time when the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man come on depends on the cultivator's level of cultivation. The stronger the level of cultivation, the longer the interval . At the same time, the higher the level of cultivation, the more confident one will be in fighting against the Five Degenerations of Heaven and Man.
So, it seems that at least the data provided by Deep Blue is very rigorous.
[The Immortal Body]——“There is no longer a limit on life span.”
It means there is no longer a limit on lifespan, not that it is infinite.
——Indeed there is no limit. As long as you can survive the five signs of decay, you can live as long as you want. It all depends on yourself.
I just don't know whether the ancestral realm above the ninth realm can escape the restrictions of the five decays of heavenly beings?
Lu Qingshan couldn't help but think about it.
Here, Feng Mo continued: "If the Whale God is allowed to die naturally, the Heavenly Dao will not be able to take back the spiritual energy that was 'stolen', so it must complete everything before the Whale God passes away."
This is to answer the question of why the Heavenly Dao is taking action only now.
"The Whale God has aged to such an extent that he is no longer able to take action. This is because the world he nurtured is too huge and puts a huge burden on him. If he were to take action now, it could cause the world to collapse."
This is why the Immortal Whale does not resist.
"If Lord Whale God dies of old age, this small world will break away from its dependence on Lord Whale God and become a stable and independent world. It will not collapse with his death, and Qingcang Island will not sink."
"But if Lord Whale God dies unnatural deaths, this world will not be able to complete its transformation. Moreover, the weight of the world will press Lord Whale God's holy body into the deep sea."
"The drowning power of the Tianhe Sea is enough to obliterate everything. Including the sacred body of Lord Whale God and the world nurtured in his body, they will all be obliterated by the Tianhe Sea. Of course, the spiritual energy of this world will also be released and return to heaven and earth."
"When a whale dies, everything comes to life."
