Since he came to the world of Under One Person and began to practice, there has been a question that has been bothering Zheng Shu.

That is: What is an immortal?

If it is the external manifestation of an immortal or something similar, the famous sects and even some ordinary ancient books have already made it very clear.

But Zheng Shu still didn't understand, in the world of Under One Person, what exactly is the existence of "immortal"?

A powerful existence far beyond other creatures?

If it was just that simple, then Zheng Shu could have called himself an immortal long ago.

Even before he came to the universe, his body grew to ten years old, and his strength had far exceeded the description of immortals in ancient books.

But there is no doubt that even Zheng Shu would not think that he could be considered an immortal in that situation.

Is the so-called immortal a super existence where human life has evolved to a certain limit?

Judging from the performance of those aliens under One Person, this conclusion can be agreed.

After all, even the acquired aliens who have just obtained Qi can be judged by the panel as not human.

Although the increase in strength is not high, the degree of life evolution after learning Qi training is far beyond the cultivation methods Zheng Shu obtained in other worlds.

However, this conclusion was overturned after Zheng Shu reached a certain level of cultivation. Although the help of Qi training for life evolution was quite amazing when he just started, the effect of life evolution dropped strangely after that.

The easiest way to identify this aspect is to look at the increase in the life span of the practitioner by Qi training.

Even if it is just a new Qi training method, the acquired alien with not very good talent, as long as he does not experience natural disasters or man-made disasters, or suffers irreparable hidden injuries when he is young, he can live safely for more than 100 years.

But even a top-level strongman like Lao Tianshi, who is several levels away from ordinary aliens, may only live about 130 to 140 years old.

In the alien world known to Zheng Shu, the only ones who can truly achieve near immortality, except Feng Baobao, are those who have practiced the Six Treasury Immortal Thief.

That is to say, if these few cases are excluded, the Qi training method of the aliens can only allow the user to live to the natural limit of the human body at best.

In this way, except for the extraordinary assistance to life evolution at the beginning, the subsequent assistance of Qi training to the practitioner in life evolution is not even as good as some genetic drugs.

And if the immortals are just some kind of life that has evolved to the extreme, it cannot explain the overly high-tech skills used by the aliens on Earth.

After communicating with a large group of practitioners in the universe on the Transcendent Star, Zheng Shu discovered how strange the aliens on Earth are in the cultivation world of the Milky Way.

Because the elements of the entire world are relatively barren, the cultivation method of this world is basically to dig inward to dig out one's own power.

This principle is not only on Earth, but also in most of the schools in the Milky Way.

And the inward digging method of cultivation means that the practitioners are very clear about their own power and skills, both in terms of cultivation methods and principles.

That is the so-called knowing the truth and the reason.

For example, the Yuanying sword energy mastered by the Yuanying Sect not only has the release principle, but even the history of its development can be traced.

At first, the so-called Yuanying Sword was just a way to release air blades. It was to form a certain cycle of energy in the body and guide the shock waves released by the outside air.

Because it was quite complicated to use and its power was average, it was not well-known.

Later, with the gradual development of science and technology, the people of the Situ family were constantly improving the operation of the Yuanying Sword.

From the Yuanying Cannon released by simulating guns and cannons, to the fission sword energy released according to the principle of nuclear fission, to the fusion sword energy later, and even the current antimatter sword energy.

Each way of releasing sword energy has a very complete principle explanation and guiding context, and the Yuanying Sword can only develop continuously with the development of science and technology.

For example, when it comes to fission sword energy, the ordinary human brain can no longer bear this level of calculation, and it must rely on special sword-shaped supercomputers to assist in calculations before it can be released.

However, on Earth, there are many technologies that are more difficult than making antimatter, such as the Fire Escape Technique of Huo De Zong, which is a space jump technology no matter how you look at it.

In addition, there are a lot of skills such as force field control, energy shield, future prediction, and mind transformation.

Normally, if a civilization has mastered so many technologies, even the interstellar alliance should be cautious when facing such a civilization.

But the fact is just the opposite. Although the aliens on Earth have the methods of using and practicing these skills, they do not understand the internal principles at all.

Although the ancestors of various schools have also explained part of it with various mysterious statements, the real core principles are basically real black boxes.

If the immortals are really just a simple evolution of life, it doesn't make sense that they can also know these scientific and technological technologies.

After a fierce battle with Yi, Zheng Shu finally found clues from him and understood the truth of the so-called "immortal".

After the truth was revealed, it was actually very easy to understand. The second guess was very close to the conclusion.

The so-called "immortal" is actually a creature that comes into contact with the rules of this world after its evolution reaches a certain limit, and then obtains the "power" given by the world.

In other words, the immortals in the world under one person are actually the same type of existence as the complete dragon king in the dragon world, or the gods in the Xingyue world.

Of course, the reason why Zheng Shu understood this was entirely because he had been these two existences before, so he was able to quickly reveal this secret during the battle.

If it were a creature born and raised in this world, it would probably not be able to understand the true face of the "immortal" until it was fought to the death.

However, although they are both beings who have evolved to the limit of life and gained power, the immortals under one person are still slightly different from the beings who should also have power in the previous two worlds.

The first is the type of power. Whether it is the dragon king of the dragon world or the god of the moon world, the power that each of them can control is concentrated in a single field.

For example, "single" powers such as recovery, material conversion, and heat energy control.

Although through the development of users, these relatively simple powers can also exert quite complex effects, there is really no good way to deal with things that deviate from their own powers.

The power obtained by the immortals in the world under one person is more "comprehensive". Although it is weaker from the perspective of "depth" than the dragon kings and gods who control a single power, it is indeed far beyond the "breadth" .

Without the suppression of beings of the same level, the power displayed by the Immortal would be more "almighty".

And because he has mastered very comprehensive powers, even if his power was not very strong before becoming an immortal, after becoming an immortal, he can use his powers to exponentially amplify the power he releases.

This is something that even the Dragon King and the gods, who also have power, cannot do.

"...I tentatively attached the mysterious counterattack array to my carapace before, and you really couldn't completely disperse the power I released in time, so I made corresponding guesses."

As Zheng Shu spoke, he smoothly cut off a newly grown limb.

Not only that, Zheng Shu has been setting up mysterious counter-attack circles around himself and Yi since just now, in order to offset all the rule distortions and powers he can exert, to ensure that he has no ability to resist.

"...I would also like to thank you for the pressure you gave me during the battle, which allowed me to master the power in my body so quickly. These powers are not only manifested in the physical body, but also in this special passivity around my body. "

After listening to Zheng Shu's explanation, he carefully felt the rules around his body. After a long time, he looked up at Zheng Shu in shock.

"You...it only took such a short time to learn to use the 'Tao' you control to resist my 'Tao'?!"

What shocked Yi was more than that. In his perception, the "Tao" mastered by Zheng Shu should be quite incomplete (the limitations of Crystal Valley's ability), but the other party could use such incomplete Tao to offset his complete Tao. , and also in such a short period of time...

"Ahem, I am born with supernatural powers."

After coughing twice, Zheng Shu moved his eyes away with a slight guilt. He couldn't say that he had played similar roles in both worlds, so he was quite experienced in controlling these things.

"Ashamed, I always thought that my talent could be regarded as top-notch even in this universe, but I didn't expect that there would be such a treasure as you in this world." Although Zheng Shu's answer was a bit strange, he still made a statement. Admiration from the heart.

"Even if you praise me so much, I can't let you go." Zheng Shu tilted his head back in disgust.

"Ha! I didn't expect such a thing."

After the two talked like good friends, they fell silent, and the atmosphere became much more solemn in an instant.

The cracked carapace on his face healed quickly and returned to his expressionless appearance. The aura of his whole body exploded, and the aura of a superior predator that preyed on all living things filled the entire space.

The slightly gentle smile on his face also faded, and he also became expressionless. Although his limbs were completely cut off, his eyes still showed the indifference that he regarded everything in the world as a stupid dog.

"How about it? How about you save me some effort and explain everything I want myself, so that both of us can save some time." Zheng Shu asked first.

"With our power, do we still need to worry about time?" He raised his head and stared calmly at Zheng Shu's eyes with blue energy flames. "Although your power is indeed powerful, if you want to know the truth, That’s not enough now.”

"Hahahahahaha! You mean, a guy like you who is weaker than me can know the truth, but I can't know it?" Zheng Shu held his forehead with one hand and raised his head as if he had heard some joke. laugh.

Facing Zheng Shu's ridicule, he did not get angry at all. Instead, he chuckled:

"Of course not. With your strength, you are qualified enough to know the truth, but if you want to know the truth, you must accept my inheritance. If you accept my inheritance, not only the truth you want, but also strength, power, and wealth will be at your fingertips. , including my position as interstellar co-chairman.”

The inheritance of the highest chairman of the Interstellar Union, even if no one knows what it is, I am afraid that as long as the news is passed on, the people of the entire galaxy will be boiling.

However, Zheng Shu's reaction to such a "temptation" was unusually calm.

"What is this? A threat? Or is it some kind of inexplicable restriction?"

"This is just an old man's advice to the young." Yi shook his head.

"Of course, there are actually two reasons. I already have a wisp of true spirit living in Tao. The death of the body and soul has no meaning to me. Even if you kill me, it won't take long for me to be resurrected in Tao.

We are all cultivators, and you should also know that those methods such as interrogation and soul searching are meaningless to me. If you want to get the truth, you can only do this."

Facing Yi's threat, Zheng Shu sneered, and Yi continued to speak as if he did not feel the murderous intent overflowing from him.

"Your inheritance will not affect your freedom. The only thing you need to do is to protect this galaxy."

"Protect this galaxy? Speaking of which, judging from the mental fluctuations of the commanders of those fleets before their death, the order you issued seems to be because you think I will threaten the safety of the entire galaxy.

But at that time, I didn't seem to show such power, so... do you think I will threaten this galaxy after becoming an immortal?"

Zheng Shu's originally silent eyes lit up slightly, as if he had found a topic again.

"Strictly speaking, as long as immortals exist here, it will cause huge losses to this galaxy." He shook his head and retorted.

"This galaxy is on the verge of its limit, and the fragile order may collapse at any time. Even I don't know whether a new immortal will overwhelm the fragile balance of this galaxy, but I can't take this risk with the lives of the entire galaxy."

"Your statement is very interesting. Listening to you, are immortals a natural disaster? Then don't you also exist here?" Zheng Shu became interested.

"The immortals themselves are the end of life, of course it won't be a natural disaster, and I am also somewhat different from other immortals, and I will not affect these galaxies. The trouble lies in the subsequent impact after the birth of the immortals."

"What do you mean?"

"You should have discovered it when you just came to the universe, this galaxy is weird..."

Turning his head to look at the distant starry sky, his eyes leisurely:

"That is where anyone with a little knowledge of biology will find something wrong."

"...Human?" Zheng Shu's mental fluctuations also carried a trace of solemnity.

"Yes, even children, as long as they have learned a little bit of relevant theory, can understand that even creatures that are slightly farther away on the same planet will evolve into different types after years of isolation.

In the endless sea of ​​stars, most of the intelligent creatures are humans, and a large part of them are completely different from other humans, including genes, except for culture."

Turning back to look at Zheng Shu, his expression serious:

"The reason why this situation has formed is precisely because of the 'influence' that follows the newborn immortals."

After hearing his words, the huge silver-white monster suspended in space fell silent, as if it was struggling.

Yi's eyes lit up when he saw this, and he struck while the iron was hot: "So accepting my inheritance will not have any adverse effects on you, you just need to take action when necessary..."

"Ah..."

After a long silence, the silver-white monster sighed.

Feeling the sigh in his mental fluctuations, Yi's eyes became brighter and brighter.

"What do you think?"

"Sure enough, eating humanoid creatures still makes me feel a little uncomfortable." After a long silence, Zheng Shu finally sighed.

"Ah?"

Looking at Yi who was a little confused, Zheng Shu blinked his eyes, recalled, and suddenly realized:

"Ah! Are you talking about what you just said? Sorry, I was struggling just now, so I didn't listen carefully.

The mess you said has no meaning to me, I'm just thinking about how to get rid of you.

Considering that you are a humanoid creature, it would be a bit uncomfortable to eat you directly, but what you said before aroused my interest. In order to get the answer in your mind, I can barely bear it."

"You?!"
