Immortality: Starting with a grave, I'm invincible when burying corpses.

Compared to Bai Ling at this moment, Mu An's taps on her normally were much gentler.

Waaaaah!!

I used to think Mr. Mu was fierce, but compared to Bai Ling, Mr. Mu is so gentle!

How terrifying! Wasn't Master Bai of the Five Spirits Academy supposed to be the gentlest of all the land immortals, with the kindest personality in the world?

What the hell is this?

Liars! They're all liars!

After another chaotic scene, the farce came to an end amidst Li Yin's wails.

Having sorted out the cause and effect, Bai Ling had a cold face, it was hard to tell whether she was dissatisfied with Li Yin or felt guilty for forgetting her master.

She pulled the now-normal Li Yin to Mu An's side and bowed to Mu An.

"Grandmaster, I'm so sorry... I still can't remember what happened before, but please rest assured, I will definitely try my best to find a way to regain my memories."

Mu An waved his hand, showing no sign of minding these matters.

Seeing this, Bai Ling breathed a sigh of relief, pressed Li Yin to the table, and asked Mu An.

"Grandmaster, you just said that Li Yin has an innate Dao body. What exactly does that mean? Isn't she from a technologically advanced world? Why would she possess an innate Dao body?"

Bai Ling asked a series of questions, and Li Yin, who had been baring her teeth at Bai Ling, fell silent.

To be honest, Li Yin was also very curious about her own situation.

Every time she asked the Tiangong auxiliary system a question, she would receive the answer that she did not have enough permissions.

If we could get the answer from Mu An, that would be the best thing ever.

Mu An didn't hide anything from the two people's confusion and answered directly.

"The so-called innate Dao body is essentially the unity of man and Dao. When manifested in cultivation, it will have many miraculous aspects."

Such as being born without blemish, pure and clean, with the physical body and soul resonating with the Great Dao, containing no impurities.

No deliberate cultivation is needed; one interacts with heaven and earth at all times and can spontaneously absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth...

Those with innate Dao bodies are the darlings of heaven and earth, the products of Golden Immortals. As long as they can grow normally, they are destined to reach extremely high realms.

Taking the Nine Realms where we live as an example, those who grow up with innate Dao bodies are destined to attain the supreme status of Heaven and Earth, which is the so-called Xuanxian realm.

If the world that gave birth to the innate Dao body belongs to a Golden Immortal, then the innate Dao body will go in another direction, becoming known as a half-step Golden Immortal.

"Mysterious Immortal, Half-Step Golden Immortal? Grandmaster, what's the difference between the two?"

Just like back then, Bai Ling still maintained her habit of asking questions when she didn't understand, and immediately asked Mu An a question.

"The so-called half-step golden immortal is just a description of the essence of life, meaning that the essence of life has undergone a transformation and has a long lifespan of hundreds of thousands of years."

This is not an improvement in realm, nor a manifestation of strength, but because the half-step Golden Immortal cultivated the path of the Golden Immortal, was tainted with some of the essence of the Golden Immortal, was assimilated by the Golden Immortal, and thus possessed a long lifespan.

In other words, a half-step Golden Immortal is not an independent entity, but rather a part of a Golden Immortal.

They are not cultivating their own path, but the path of the Golden Immortals; their lives have never truly belonged to themselves.

If the power possessed by Xuanxian (Mysterious Immortals) comes from the gifts of heaven and earth, then the power of half-step Golden Immortals originates from the Golden Immortals who gave birth to them.

The secret message caused both of them to fall silent. Bai Ling and Li Yin exchanged a glance, with Bai Ling giving Li Yin a look.

Keep your mouth shut, let her ask all the questions.

"Grandmaster, if I remember correctly, Li Yin cultivates your Dao, and you are also a Golden Immortal, right?"

Seeing Bai Ling's slight nervousness, Mu An smiled calmly.

"Relax, Li Yin is not a being from the Nine Realms, nor is she a life I created. Her life belongs only to herself."

Bai Ling breathed a sigh of relief at the straightforward words, and apologized to Mu An repeatedly. Seeing that Mu An didn't mind, she continued.

"Grandmaster, as you said, the innate Dao body is the darling of heaven and earth, a product born from the Golden Immortal, and possesses many miraculous qualities."

But I vaguely remember that when I found Li Yin, she didn't seem particularly special, and she didn't resemble the innate Dao body you mentioned. Why are you so certain that she has an innate Dao body?

This time, Mu An did not answer immediately. Instead, he waved his hand lightly towards the void, recreating the scene when Li Yin first came to the Nine Domains more than two hundred years ago.

The wind and rain were fierce, and thunder and lightning raged.

Amidst thunder and lightning, a purple bolt of lightning descended from the sky, and eleven-year-old Li Yin appeared on the streets of Jiuzhou City.

The scene shifts to a girl huddled in a street corner, starving and fighting with passersby for food, only to be severely beaten by the constables.

Later, a much younger Bai Ling appeared in the scene and handed the girl a hot meat bun.

"This is……"

The two of them stared wide-eyed at the scene Mu An was recreating, each with their own thoughts.

Before they could speak, the scene rewound again, returning to the moment when the purple lightning struck from the sky.

"It was this purple lightning bolt that brought Li Yin from the Celestial Craftsmanship Realm to our Nine Domains. During the journey through the world, this lightning bolt reversed time, allowing Li Yin to return to the age of eleven and giving her the possibility of activating her own genes again."

Genes shaped through technology are different from Dao bodies and require a long activation process. To transform into an innate Dao body, one must begin cultivation from childhood. The previous Li Yin had already lost the possibility of transformation.

But this purple lightning bolt gave her a new opportunity. After arriving at Sui'an Academy, Li Yin's genes were gradually activated during her cultivation.

Until Li Yin reached the realm of terrestrial immortals, this gene hidden deep within her body and soul was completely activated, transforming into the innate Dao body of the Heavenly Craftsmanship Realm.

This is why Li Yin didn't show these qualities at the beginning, but only revealed her uniqueness after reaching a higher level.

Listening to Mu An's story and looking at her past self in the picture, even someone as carefree as Li Yin was a little dazed for a moment, staring blankly at the frozen image.

As intelligent as she is, how could she not know about her own problems? She just hasn't been willing to face them.

In a daze, Li Yin suppressed all her fluctuating emotions and spoke in as calm a tone as possible.

"In other words, without this lightning bolt, if my body hadn't reverted to its childhood state, and if I hadn't come to the Nine Realms, I would never have been able to activate my genes, right?"

"good."

Ignoring Bai Ling's worried gaze, Li Yin took a deep breath and said to Mu An.

"Master, where do you think my genes came from? And who placed that auxiliary system inside me?"

The spacious room fell silent. Qinghe outside the door held her breath, while Bailing inside gripped Liyin's right hand tightly, as if hoping it would make her feel better.

In the slightly oppressive atmosphere, Mu An's voice slowly rang out.

"That's a question you'll have to ask yourself."

……

"Master, Sister Bai, could you please accompany me back to my old home?"

"Can."
