Chapter 504: The Missing Decayed Immortal

~8 min read 1,449 words

Seeing the Sect Master's puzzled expression, Lu Yang was even more puzzled than him.

"The Decayed Immortal, the faith of your Decayed Sect, called Bu Yaolian."

The Sect Master frowned: "The Decayed Immortal is indeed our faith, but judging by your meaning, he is here with us?"

"That goes without saying. After the Decayed Immortal was resurrected by your Decayed Sect, the Decayed Immortal only had a soul but no physical body, so he needed to find a suitable physical body. You gathered all the Foundation Establishment stage members of the Decayed Sect for a competition. I finally won, and under your leadership, I saw the Decayed Immortal."

"Later, the Decayed Immortal was beaten up in my spiritual space, and the Eldest Senior Sister also contacted the imperial court to wipe out your Decayed Sect in one pot. You were all refined into ghost servants by the Eldest Senior Sister."

The more Lu Yang said, the more the Sect Master frowned. Lu Yang definitely wouldn't use such things to lie to himself. Was his memory wrong, or was his memory wrong?

The Sect Master called Master Liu, Master Gao, and others to verify with them whether the Decayed Immortal had appeared.

From the two barbecue masters up to the three seductive ghosts, all denied having ever seen the Decayed Immortal.

"In my impression, when we gathered all the Foundation Establishment stage members of the Decayed Sect for a competition, it was to select young talents as reserve cadres for the Decayed Sect. You did win that competition, and I was just about to award you when the imperial court rushed in with people, arrested all of us in the Decayed Sect, and then we were refined into ghost servants by Master Yun Zhi to atone for our sins here."

"There was no Decayed Immortal throughout the whole process."

"Then you kept asking me to make the barbecue shop bigger and stronger, open chain stores outside, and open barbecue shops all over the continent. Wasn't this goal also set for you by the Decayed Immortal?"

The Sect Master denied it again: "Not so. I felt that instead of living a muddled life here, it would be better to find a goal, so I asked Fellow Daoist Lu Yang for help to open the barbecue shop. That's when you found the Jiuyou Sect and let them help us open chain stores."

Lu Yang thought of another piece of evidence proving the existence of the Decayed Immortal: "Then what about your Decayed Immortal statue? In the past, your Decayed Immortal statue was very blurry, and you couldn't even tell if it was male or female. After the Decayed Immortal appeared, you replaced all the statues with the Decayed Immortal's true appearance, and the statue was holding a "Criminal Law" in its hand."

"It's not like that. One day I was in seclusion and meditation, and in a daze, I saw the Decayed Immortal walking toward me. He was holding a "Criminal Law" and said to me with a kind face that I did a good job, we all did a good job, and he would truly be born in a few days. After waking up, I realized that this was an immortal's dream, an immortal fate, so I replaced the statue."

"As a result, before that day came, our Decayed Sect was raided by your Congwendao Sect and the imperial court."

The Decayed Immortal often appeared at the barbecue shop, and everyone on the commercial street knew him, but they didn't know the Decayed Immortal's identity. Lu Yang asked the shop next door, and they had no impression of the Decayed Immortal.

Lu Yang also found several senior brothers and sisters who were regular customers of the barbecue shop, and they all said they hadn't seen the Decayed Immortal.

"Really no Decayed Immortal?" After asking around, Lu Yang suspected that his memory had deviated and he had been implanted with a non-existent memory.

"Fairy, wake up, something happened." Lu Yang shook the Decayed Fairy who was sleeping.

After the celebration, the Decayed Fairy used the excuse of physical and mental exhaustion and overusing her brain to sleep soundly in the spiritual space.

Anyway, Lu Yang didn't understand what could tire her out when she sat on the viewing platform the whole time, except for acting a rival scene with him.

"What are you doing?" The Decayed Fairy heard the shouting and muttered, the tail sound drawn very long.

She used great determination to open her eyes a small slit, looked at Lu Yang, and turned her head to sleep back.

"Let this Sect Master sleep a while longer..." Saying that, she closed her eyes.

"The Decayed Immortal has disappeared."

"What the hell, the Third-in-command has disappeared?"

The Decayed Fairy sat up suddenly. Their Decayed lineage had three people: the First-in-command was her, the Second-in-command was Lu Yang, and the Third-in-command was the Decayed Immortal. The average cultivation of the three was half-immortal, which could be said to be extremely strong. Now that one Decayed Immortal was missing...

It seems the average cultivation is also half-immortal?

It seems the Third-in-command is not very important.

"No, how could he disappear for no reason?"

The Decayed Fairy's reaction made Lu Yang breathe a sigh of relief. It seems that it wasn't his memory that went wrong, but that everyone's memory of the Decayed Immortal had been deleted, and a piece of other memory had been inserted.

Lu Yang detailed his discovery of the clues and the current investigation results.

"Hmm, it's a bit interesting. It sounds like a cause-and-effect spell, but this kind of little thing is nothing to this immortal. You have this immortal's protection, so you haven't been affected."

"Cause-and-effect spell?" Cause and effect are obscure. At Lu Yang's current realm, he doesn't need to understand these.

"A person, from the moment they are born, no, it should be said from the womb, after the soul is born, they have a connection with the world."

To better explain, the Decayed Fairy transformed a piece of white paper and drew a circle on it.

"This circle is you when you were just born."

She drew another circle not far from the circle.

"This is someone else."

A line connected the two circles.

"After you were born, someone saw you, then you had cause and effect with him. Similarly, you saw him, and the two of you also had cause and effect."

"You are strangers, the cause and effect are very shallow. He took a look at you and soon forgot you, and the two of you had no cause and effect."

"If you were just born, naturally divine, and kicked the other person's leg off, then he definitely wouldn't forget you, and your cause and effect would deepen."

Saying that, the line connecting the two circles thickened and deepened, very conspicuous.

"As you grow up, you come into contact with more and more people, and the cause and effect you have with this world will increase."

"Your childhood playmates, the fellow disciples and elders you came into contact with after entering the Congwendao Sect, these are all existences that have close cause and effect with you."

"Why some cultivators choose to avoid the world to cultivate is because there are too many cause and effect in the red dust, and too many cause and effect are not conducive to cultivation."

"When everyone forgets your existence, these people and your cause and effect no longer exist, which is the situation the Third-in-command is facing now."

Lu Yang hadn't noticed before, but now that it was said, Lu Yang realized that since the Decayed Immortal descended, he had come into contact with so many people around him.

The Decayed Immortal was born and came into contact with the high-level Decayed Sect, then came into contact with himself, the Decayed Fairy, the Eldest Senior Sister, and then came to the Congwendao Sect and came into contact with the people on the commercial street and the Congwendao Sect disciples.

As long as the traces of these contacts are cut off, the cause and effect are cut off, and everyone forgets or replaces them with new memories, this person will have no connection with the whole world.

"Of course, considering the Third-in-command's cultivation, and the fact that they forgot so cleanly, the cause-and-effect spell in my cognition wouldn't reach this level. Either your era has developed a more powerful cause-and-effect spell, or someone has condensed a cause-and-effect fruit or something similar."

The second update will be at eleven o'clock.
