I am a living immortal.

Chapter 548: Burning Fire, Darkness's Counterattack

Su was like a sponge, constantly absorbing all kinds of knowledge. In his own mental space, he could not feel the passage of time, and he didn't know if it was a year, five years, or ten years. After Su absorbed the last bit of knowledge into his mind, his mental space collapsed in an instant.

In the real world, Su suddenly woke up.

He didn't realize where he was for a moment, but when he felt the coolness on his body, his vision finally cleared from the haziness. He remembered this place, this was the mountain spring they had found with great difficulty before.

Seeing that he had regained consciousness, several teenagers immediately gathered around him and asked with concern, "Are you okay, Su?!"

The boys' concern was written all over their faces.

It actually gave Su the illusion that he was in another world. He forced a smile on his stiff face: "I'm fine, and I'm fine."

"That's good. You were..."

Su thought about it and decided to be calm: "Remember the man who saved me before? He gave me a piece of 'fire', so I can have the power I have now."

As he spoke, Su opened his clothes a little, revealing a flame-like pattern in the area of ​​his heart.

The boys were surprised: "Doesn't that mean, Su, you've become an immortal cultivator?!" The boys knew that immortal cultivators were synonymous with great strength. Occasionally, a few immortal cultivators could be seen flying through this jungle.

At that time, a group of young people wanted to become immortals.

It wasn't just about being able to fly, it was about being able to control one's own destiny. However, this was just wishful thinking. If one couldn't even afford to eat, how could one possibly become an immortal cultivator? However, this time, Su had turned a disaster into a blessing and became an immortal cultivator, and the young men were genuinely happy for him.

Su was very excited to see them, as if they were himself.

This left Su stunned. It seemed that after these days of life and death together, these people had already trusted him. He didn't know if this could be considered as cultivating immortality, but it was definitely close.

He looked around at these young men, and they were able to survive in the jungle, which showed that they were resilient. So he decided to tell them a better news.

"Actually, you can also cultivate immortality."

Su spoke slowly. As expected, the moment he said this, the faces of the young men were stunned.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, but I may not be able to make you fly and hide in the ground at the beginning. You need to practice."

"Isn't this perfectly normal?" Several teenagers didn't understand why Su said that and looked at him with strange eyes.

"Ah, I mean, you guys won't become stronger overnight like me."

"Ahaha, Su, what are you talking about? You deserve these powers. After all, you were burning up and almost lost your life. It would be strange if you didn't gain any power after all this."

Su was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

The others, upon hearing Su's laughter, joined in the laughter. They knew what he was laughing at, and they knew what he was about to do. And they would follow him. The youths' hatred for the innate gods had always been there, and as time went on, it only grew. But no one dared to speak out, for they couldn't even control their own lives, so how could they seek revenge? So they could only suppress these thoughts deep within their hearts.

However, now Su told them that they could also cultivate immortality.

Isn't this redemption? The hatred in their hearts has become motivation. To survive, to grow stronger while surviving. They want to find their companions, they want revenge.

Several people laughed for a long time.

Su stood up from the mountain spring water and said: "Then, let's work hard towards what we hope for."

“Yes!!” Several teenagers were full of energy.

And the flame of hope was ignited here. Su stood up from the water and looked in one direction. The flames that had previously soared into the sky had died down, and it was unknown whether the man had left safely.

I hope he is safe.

There was nothing they could do now. Even with his miraculous powers, he knew in his heart that he was no match for the monster. He was still too weak, and time was running out. But now he no longer had the will to give up. All he had left was to become stronger, then fight back and slay the monster.

This is a promise from the bottom of my heart.

Su will never forget it.

"Let's go," Su said calmly. He was calm at the moment. The various things he had experienced had made him mature rapidly. The youthful immaturity had vanished from him, replaced by the qualities of a leader.

Right now, they couldn't do anything. They needed to build up their strength. First, they had to find a quiet and safe place for them to practice.

The teenagers quickly disappeared into the jungle.

Lin Yang knew the young man had successfully activated the fire, and that was enough. The blazing flames within him burned and burned, reaching their highest point. Life, spirit, and will were all ignited. Any demonic beast that dared approach was reduced to ash beneath the searing flames.

Lin Yang was in physical pain, but a smile appeared on his lips.

"Madman! You madman!" The demon beast was furious, but it didn't dare to approach. Even from a distance, it could still feel the burning sensation. Its body told it that if it came close, it would be ignited as well.

The flames that shot up into the sky eventually burned out.

Only a cloud of ash remained before the demonic beast. In Sishui City, his teacher seemed to sense something, sighing for a long time before recovering. His student's life could be described as legendary, yet he died in darkness.

At some point, another figure appeared on top of that magnificent city wall.

Lin Yang returned home, his soul entered reincarnation, but his will remained on the city wall.

He was not lost in the darkness.

This is the fate of many in Sishui City, yet it's somewhat different. The Sage King has left a mark on their souls, allowing them to find their way home upon reincarnation. This is the Sage King's gentleness.

Situations like Lin Yang and Su's occur all over the world. Perhaps their experiences are different, perhaps the methods of inheritance are different, but the burning of the flame has spread all over the world thanks to the efforts of pioneers like Lin Yang.

Over the past few decades, the Guides have raised the flames of life across the world. Their will, under the command of the Saint Sovereign, has even attracted the attention of the Innate Gods. They remain arrogant, still believing they can't achieve great things. But beneath this arrogance lies a subtle unease, and so, despite their disdain, they still take action.

The flame is burning, and when it dispels the darkness, it will inevitably encounter the counterattack of darkness.
