Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Chapter 198: Chapter 197: Leniency for Those Who Confess_1

“No, I meant, my name is Sha Meless, the ‘Sha’ stands for fabric, and ‘Meless’ stands for lack of shame.” The Immortal Eternity became submissive, answering every question with a good attitude.

Fairy Eternity frowned, “Why such an odd name?”

Lu Yang thought to himself, who are you to judge others’ names?

Immortal Eternity sighed, “I didn’t want it either. But explaining it would take a while.”

“Take your time.” Fairy Eternity produced a small stool, sitting on it, and propped her head up with a palm, ready to listen to Immortal Eternity’s elaborate explanation.

Yun Zhi and Lu Yang, too, listened attentively.

Speaking truthfully, Immortal Eternity said, “I am unaware of the origin of my conscious or how I was born. A long time ago, my first consciousness emerged, faint and blurry, barely aware of my existence, like looking at flowers through mist, everything was unclear.”

“I felt an unknown force constantly converging onto me, making me stronger bit by bit, but my consciousness remained vague and indistinguishable.”

“I also felt a surge of memories filling up my consciousness, but at that time, I didn’t have the capacity to think. I merely accepted the memories and was unable to organize or process the massive influx of information.”

“As my consciousness gradually grew stronger, I faintly heard the name ‘Immortal Eternity’ whispered.”

“I heard the term ‘Immortal Eternity’ in my memories, but I couldn’t interpret my memories, and didn’t know what ‘Immortal Eternity’ meant.”

“I don’t know how much time had passed, perhaps hundreds or even thousands of years, but at one point my consciousness suddenly became clear, as if I was a drowned person who was rescued and had my perception of the external world restored.”

“The first phrase I heard when my consciousness became clear was — ‘Great Immortal Eternity, Sha Meless, please save your devoted followers and save this world.’”

“‘Sha Meless’ became my name although I originally had none. It was the Master who called me ‘Sha Meless’ that I got this name.”

“Once I had a name, I was finally able to process those tremendous past memories and understood the meanings those memories conveyed.”

“Looking through my memories, I saw someone accidentally discovering a Secret Realm, getting lost within, and learning about an ancient Immortal who protected the human race named Immortal Eternity. This Immortal possessed the Eternity Dao Fruit and could resurrect from death. Following his escape from the Secret Realm, this man formed the Eternity Sect intending to resurrect Immortal Eternity.”

“The Eternity Sect grew stronger, drawing in more and more worshippers. They slaughtered to please Immortal Eternity, chanting the name of the Immortal Eternity, hoping for his resurrection.”

“By then, I comprehended. I was the Immortal Eternity resurrected by the Eternity Sect. As long as someone genuinely believed in me and prayed or worshipped me, I would gain their memory.”

“The Master prayed to me, I appeared in the visible realm through a statue, responding to the Master’s wishes.”

“I have the Master’s memory. What the Master knows, I do too. I saw he was severely wounded, needing a hundred years of quiet recuperation. Considering he was my strongest and most devout believer, I treated him.”

“Once I got my name, I felt I held a lump of golden radiance. Combining it with my memory, I guessed this was Eternity Dao Fruit.”

“I used part of the Eternity Dao Fruit’s Power to heal the Master.”

“But I am not sure whether I am indeed the Immortal Eternity. My earliest memory was from the first believer, chaotic memories from over ten thousand years ago, without a shred of ancient memory.”

“For instance, when the Master asked who refined the stars, I cannot answer his question. However, I couldn’t say that I don’t know, thus I told him that the matter was too profound for him to understand.”

“I was unsure how the believers would react if they knew my situation. So, for now, I could only pretend to be awoken from the ancient era.”

“Since I am always in a soul state, this cannot be a long-term solution. So, I told the Master that I need to possess a body to return to my peak and save the world.”

“The Master believed my words. He assembled all Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment practitioners and organized a competition. I would select a suitable body to possess from the participants.”

“And you chose me?” asked Lu Yang.

The Immortal Eternity nodded helplessly. Yes, I had made a poor choice. I chose you and got a good beating. Any other choice and I would have succeeded in possessing a body.

If only I had chosen someone else, I would have succeeded in possessing.

Immortal Eternity clarified things that settled certain questions like why he didn’t know ancient techniques, why he needed to possess a body, and why his name was Sha Meless.

However, some puzzles were so profound that even he could not explain.

For instance, who exactly was he? Where did he come from? How did the Eternity Dao Fruit appear?

With a hopeful gaze, Lu Yang looked at his Eldest Senior Sister and Fairy Eternity. It was time for the wise elders to step in.

Fairy Eternity furrowed her brows, seemingly deep in thought, not looking very reliable.

From start to finish, Eldest Senior Sister quietly listened to Immortal Eternity’s experiences, distinguishing whether they were true or fabricated.

Eldest Senior Sister believed his experiences to be authentic to a large extent.

Noticing Lu Yang’s gaze, she understood her Junior Brother still had many questions and expected answers from her, so she said, “The Grand Elder of Heavenly Strategy Sect, Master Daoyan, once hypothesized that there was no Immortal Eternity or Eternity Dao Fruit in this world initially, and the Eternity Sect was essentially trying to create an immortal.”

Lu Yang secretly nodded his head. The more experienced ones indeed were reliable.

Immortal Eternity looked up at Yun Zhi’s words. Who was this Daoyan, daring to doubt the existence of my Dao Fruit? Don’t you know how much effort I put into forming this Dao Fruit? Even Yingtian Immortal and the others were envious!

Lu Yang suggested Fairy Eternity to listen to Eldest Senior Sister first, and settle scores with Daoyan later.

Yun Zhi continued, “Where the soul comes from and where it goes is a mystery the Cultivation World has not been able to solve until now. Master Daoyan believes that human willpower can create a soul, provided the willpower is abundant and strong enough.”

“Of course, this is a hypothesis and doesn’t explain how the first soul was born. But your situation aligns with this hypothesis.”

“Since its inception to the present, the Eternity Sect has lasted for over 14,000 years. During these 14,000 years, there would’ve been at least a million followers praying to an nonexistent Immortal Eternity. Given such a long duration, and a vast amount of willpower, it’s entirely possible to conjure a soul, which is you, Immortal Eternity.”

“But your appearance might have had another condition – slaying.”

“Have you ever thought about where those resentful demonic auras that you were able to wield, originate from?”

“Humans are the most superior beings, the favoured children of heaven and earth. They are born with ‘spirituality’. The practice of Demon Cultivators is to strip the ‘spirituality’ from humans through slaughter, which then becomes their power.”

“Believers of the Eternity Sect slew countless beings to please you, thus causing extensive karmic debts. The power obtained from slaughtering became your power, the power of Transcendance Tribulation Stage.”
