Marvel: Spear Bureau Technical Advisor

"Kunlun has never had an immortal creation." Shou Lao's voice echoed in the cave, and the layered echoes added to the majesty.

He folded his hands on his chest, shook his head and said, "I don't believe it when you speak empty teeth."

"Do you have any evidence to prove that Kunlun made the undead ninja?" Lei Gong asked back.

Xiang Qiang said: "I have personally identified their souls, so naturally there will be no fakes."

Lei Gong was so angry that he almost vomited blood; if you saw it with your own eyes, it must be true, but what Shou Lao said was empty teeth?

Xiangqian ignored Lei Gong's depression, and continued to say to Shou Lao: "When I killed spiders and dogs, I analyzed their life and soul forms in detail. You should know that I know you very well, and I will not admit mistakes."

The so-called spiders and dogs are naturally the guardian holy beasts of the city of spiders and the city of dogs in the Seven Capitals.

Elder Shou also probably knew that Qianqian was approached by evil guests today, so it would be impossible not to make it clear; he said, "I've never seen those ninjas before, show me."

"Yes." He raised his hand forward and punched Shou Lao lightly.

When this slow and light punch came to an end, there was a sudden gust of wind, and a ripple invisible to the naked eye emerged from the fist, violently swaying, and hit Shou Lao's huge dragon body directly.

This is the way to communicate directly with Shou Qiang.

When the ripple hit Shou Lao, it did not cause any harm, but sent a memory that belonged to the forward to the depths of Shou Lao's consciousness.

Shou Lao is originally a mind-body creature. This kind of direct mind transmission and communication can completely transfer all the details about the undead ninja in memory to it.

Shou Lao closed his eyes, which were much bigger than the lanterns, and carefully savored the memories passed forward, distinguishing the soul characteristics of the undead ninja and the special fluctuations at the time of death.

After a long time, it opened its eyes and made a dull voice again: "It's really similar!"

"So, did you guys do it?" Qiangqian asked.

"Their souls and thought forms are similar to our holy beasts, and they contain the power of rebirth after death; this power does come from my kindred, but they are not the creation of Qidu."

Qianqian let out a sneer: "Both yes and no... what do you mean?"

"Seven have seven holy beasts, but there are more than seven in our family."

Qiangqian hurriedly asked: "You mean, you have other unknown clansmen who were found and used by the Hand?"

"It's possible; as far as I know, there were at least eight members of the same family who landed on the earth together; besides the Seven Holy Beasts, there was another one who fell early and was buried in a distant continent tens of thousands of miles away. There was once a person who found that same family for Iron Fist the burial ground of the world, and seal it with an iron fist."

Frowning forward: "Does the dead holy beast also have the power to give people rebirth after death?"

"Of course not. The bones of holy beasts can give people strong vitality, but they can't save the dead souls. The one who shaped the immortal ninja should be the ninth fellow who I don't know about."

Qiangqian asked angrily: "How many of you have come? Is there going to be a tenth, or one, in the future?"

"There are not many survivors of my kind."

After thinking about it, I felt that more information might be needed to deal with the possible ninth holy beast of the same family.

Although he had killed two of them back then, he thought he would not be afraid to meet another one, but who knows if this newly emerged Ninth Holy Beast has undergone any transformation—for example, the old man in front of him stole The power of faith in the Chinese dragon totem worship.

"May I ask, why did you come to Earth back then?"

This question made Shou Lao silent for a moment: "That has something to do with the evolutionary history of my family."

"It's okay, to make a long story short, I still have some time." Qiangqian's tone was full of unquestionable attitude, as if to say: If you don't explain it clearly, you will be beaten to death—if you are too wordy, you will be beaten!

A sigh echoed vaguely in the cave: "My family comes from a distant foreign land; it took a long time to acquire wisdom and civilization. In fact, our original life form is actually different from all kinds of animals on the earth. Although the shape is very different, they are also all material form."

"Until one day, we saw a group of powerful mind-body beings." Shou Lao fell into distant memories, "If you call it in the language of the earth, that group of beings call themselves the 'Tian Shen Group', and they are the gods of the creation of the universe. The first life in the universe directly created."

Neither Shou Lao nor Lei Gong noticed that when Shou Lao mentioned the "Tian Shen Group", his forward gaze suddenly flickered, and he returned to calm after a while.

Shou Lao went on to say: "The power of the 'Tian Shen Group' made us extremely admired, and it also made us believe that only the life of the mind body is the correct path for life evolution. Since then, we have spent a long time and tried our best to improve own life form."

"It seems that you succeeded?"

Shou Lao sighed again: "We succeeded, but also failed. We did allow ourselves to exist in the form of thoughts, but in the form of thoughts, our lives will quickly die out."

"The only encouraging news is that our mental body can engulf our own soul and possess other material forms of life; every time the possessed body decays, we can withdraw our mind and choose a new possessing object."

Shou Lao's words made Xiang Qiang tongue-tied: "Isn't that just a rebirth?"

"Rebirth after seizing the house?" Shou Lao sighed, "It can also be described in this way. After possessing, we will peel off the soul of the possessed person and transform its body, so that it can be strengthened to synchronize with our soul, and then obtain a long life life."

Qian Qiang asked: "Is this kind of possession one-on-one, or can it possess multiple bodies at the same time?"

"Although we are powerful, we only have one soul." Shou Lao said, "The possession of soul and mind must be one-on-one."

"But there are hundreds of ninjas in the Hand, how did your fellow clan do it?"

"Those ninja forms are not possessed; their human souls are long dead."

Shou Lao said: "The power on them was endowed after their death; the power from the holy beast forced their bodies not to be damaged, and replaced the soul with the power of the holy beast to shape consciousness and manipulate the body."

"In this way, as long as the power of the holy beast is still there, they can die and be reborn again and again—but they are no longer alive." After Shou Lao finished speaking, the echo was still echoing layer by layer.

"So, the undead ninjas are actually a group of puppets being manipulated." Xiangqian asked, "Who is manipulating? Your fellow clan, or those Kunlun traitors from the Hand?"

"I don't know." Shou Lao said, "The power of the holy beast can be given to others, just like Kunlun's iron fist."

"In other words, it is possible that the Hand has borrowed the power of the Ninth Holy Beast?" Xiang Qiang thought silently.

"Do you still have questions?" Shou Lao's voice sounded again, interrupting his forward thoughts.

Xiangqian wanted to answer no, but rolled his eyes and asked again: "You told the secret of your reincarnation, but your situation seems to be different from that of your fellow clansmen?"

Shou Lao was silent for a long time: "I am indeed different."

"Is it because of the power of faith?"

Shou Lao replied: "Yes, thousands of years ago, not only my body was about to collapse, but even my thoughts gradually dissipated. The days to come are numbered. To be honest, I can survive until now, thanks to you Chinese ancestors-this Didn't you already know that?"

Qiangqian sneered: "I just don't understand that the Chinese dragon totem worship was fully formed four to five thousand years ago at the earliest; but in earlier times, Egypt or other ancient countries already had mature belief and worship systems, why don't you go to Borrow their power of faith?"

"Because those beliefs already have masters."

Shou Lao replied: "In ancient times, the beliefs of all ethnic groups had their own masters and were manipulated by the gods. They were originally the private property of the gods from all walks of life; but the dragon totem worship of the Chinese ancestors also entrusted the name of the gods, but it did not belong to the gods. Unowned, not manipulated, but pure spiritual force of nature."

"So you don't ask for it yourself, so as to prolong your life?" Xiang Qiang made no secret of his disgust.

Shou Lao said: "It's not that I didn't pay the price. Since I survived by the power of faith, I must ensure that this civilization and faith will continue; therefore, I have been firmly bound here for thousands of years, and I must protect the dragon totem." Worship never fails."

"If you die, you will die too!"

Xiangqian complained, and then threw his hands at Lei Gong: "You see, I said that its reward is not willing."
