Urban Peerless Expert-Chapter 2019 - 2039: The End of the Immortal Path_1

On top of the mountain, Ziyun Zunzhe sat comfortably on a chair, watching Lin Chen cook a delicious meal.

Unlike Ziyun Zunzhe, who was simply waiting to be fed, Shu Zi Feng started to assist Lin Chen with the cooking.

"Master, your avatar was killed. Will it affect you in any way?"

Lin Chen, stirred the dishes in the pot and casually replied, "An avatar can’t be created out of nothing. It is derived directly from the body using Essence Blood and vitality and it is considered a part of the body. If the avatar returns and integrates back into the body, there would be no loss. However, if the avatar is destroyed, it naturally has certain impacts on the body."

"Will the impact be substantial?" Shu Zi Feng asked with concern.

Lin Chen chuckled and responded, "It’s okay. It would just make me feel a bit weak, like the feeling after losing a significant amount of blood. I can replenish the lost vitality with medicinal pills, and I have the Shengling Pearl that can transform vitality to restore myself. This loss is negligible in comparison."

Shu Zi Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That’s good. I was worried that you might be deeply affected like Mo Yun Sen when he went through Rebirth from Nirvana."

Lin Chen laughed heartily, "You haven’t seen that Mosquito Monster, that split into millions, covering the sky. My avatar is nothing in comparison, at most, it is a means to escape from danger. At the moment, it can not form legitimate combat power."

Shu Zi Feng laughed, "It’s already impressive. Your original self stays safely at home, while your avatar goes out on adventures. Even if it encounters any danger and dies, it doesn’t affect the original body. What’s more important is the outsiders can’t tell it’s an avatar. You appeared so openly in front of those three Da Luo Venerable and tens of thousands of immortals, yet none of them could tell it was an avatar."

Lin Chen served a bowl of beef soup and handed it to Shu Zi Feng, laughing, "Every immortal possesses primordial spirit avatars. If this avatar could be discerned at a glance like the primordial spirit avatar, it would not be considered a divine power."

Zi Feng brought the bowl to Ziyun Zunzhe, and respectfully handed the bowl to her uttering, "Master!"

Ziyun Zunzhe received the bowl and chuckled, "How many times have I told you not to be so formal? We are family, be at ease..."

Zi Feng grinned without responding. Clearly, she had heard the words but didn’t take them to heart.

Lin Chen shook his head with a smile but did not say anything more.

She could do as she pleased, as long as she felt comfortable. Perhaps, with time and the familiarity of everyday life, things would change.

After all, her past experiences had a profound impact on her. The respect and kindness she had for others was a reflection of the despair she had experienced.

Then, Lin Chen served two more bowls and walked over. He handed one over to Zi Feng and laughed, "Try it. How does the beef soup taste?"

Ziyun Zunzhe stirred the soup with a spoon, tasted a spoonful and her eyes nearly closed in delight, "Delicious, it’s very fragrant."

Lin Chen chuckled, "Where else would you find cultivators who spend their day cooking delicious food instead of meditating in their cave abode or searching for Immortal Medicine? We’re no different from ordinary people..."

Zunzhe Ziyun laughed, "That’s what it means to be human. If you don’t have desires, are you still human? Even though the Immortal Path is walked, I always find it more joyful to be human."

Lin Chen ladled a spoonful into his mouth and reflected, "So, in the end, do you think every cultivator who reaches the end of the journey would cast aside all mundane desires to become an immortal, obtain eternal life or even become a god?"

Ziyun Zunzhe paused and pondered before answering, "Even gods should have feelings of joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, right? If they do not even have these emotions or desires, then what would they be? Just emotionless Heavenly Dao Rules?"

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up: "Having thought about it, it’s not impossible. If a cultivator has power enough to dictate Heavenly Dao Rules and lacked desire, wouldn’t his will become the rules of a world or larger, even The Heavenly Dao we talk about?"

Ziyun Zunzhe carefully considered it, "Indeed, it’s possible. At that stage, whether a world survives or not could be determined just by his thoughts. But that level is far too beyond us. Even an Immortal Emperor might not dare to say that a mere thought could cause the destruction of a world."

Pausing for a moment, Ziyun Zunzhe added, "The Immortal Emperor might have the ability to destroy a realm with a single thought, but there must be a limit to his powers. His ability should not be limitless. For example, he might be able to destroy a continent or even the Immortal Domain, but he couldn’t destroy the entire Immortal Realm, could he?"

Contemplating the scenarios painted by Ziyun Zunzhe, Lin Chen was lost in thought for a while, "People always say the Immortal Path is endless. So, is the Immortal Emperor, or Saint, the end, or the limit, of the Immortal Path?"

Ziyun Zunzhe broke into a slight smile, "Whether it is the limit or the end, we will find the answer one day as we walk ahead."
