I Am Unstoppable novel

Chapter 56 Words Of Wisdom

With that, Jonathan continued, “According to my understanding, thoughts are the soul of a person, and this soul of ours resides in the brain. After a person’s death, their soul can no longer reside in the brain as the brain is already dead. The soul would then leave the person’s body. And since souls are insubstantial, they will float around after leaving the body. Hence, this is why some people say that they’ve seen ghosts floating around.

“I believe that when one dies, their soul somehow falls asleep too and no longer has a conscious. If a great wind blows, the soul will then be scattered and vanish. Therefore, things such as the Six Paths of Reincarnation are basically nonsense. There would only be one logical explanation for reincarnation if it did actually happen, which is a part of the person’s wandering soul coming into contact with a newborn’s brain, thus residing in there.”

Since this was Amber’s first time hearing such a novel explanation, it automatically piqued her interest, causing her to listen attentively.

Jonathan added, “Let’s continue with the previous topic. There’s this occurrence where family members would often dream of the deceased after one’s death, right? The return of the soul of the deceased could be explained as the soul’s yearning for a physical body and its family. However, since the souls no longer receive nourishment from the physical body, they can’t survive long. This is why ghost legends are common. Still, it’s rare for vengeful spirits to take revenge as they are powerless and will fade quickly.”

“What about Golden Years, then? What’s your explanation for the things that have been happening there?” Amber asked.

“It’s rare for vengeful spirits to take revenge, but there are also a few legends regarding this. As I said, the souls are unconscious after one’s death. However, there are some souls with too much resentment within them due to the grievances and anger that they suffered during their lifetime, and these feelings remain even after their deaths. On top of that, the soul just happened to grow in a place that’s filled with strong negative energy. Thus, it absorbed the negative energy to strengthen its resentment and slowly turned into a vengeful spirit.”

Amber’s eyes lit up immediately as she said, “The proprietress of Golden Years indeed experienced some terrible things while she was alive. I heard that she was strangled to death by her lover with a metal wire.”

Jonathan was unfazed by that information. “Is her lover still alive?”

“Her lover was using an alias. Hence, we can’t get a hold of him even if we want to. Up until now, we still have no idea where he might be,” she replied.

“Well, that explains her exceptionally strong resentment aura. However, the fact that she’s so powerful is indeed quite incredible. If everyone who died unjustly became so powerful, the world would’ve been in chaos long ago. Therefore, I have a feeling that there’s some sort of Destino’s treasure in Golden Years which nourishes wandering souls like her,” he elaborated.

“I still don’t get it, though. Since the proprietress is so powerful now, can’t she just seek revenge from that scumbag on her own?” Amber asked. “Perhaps, she has already taken her revenge. Regardless, I don’t understand her world at all.”

“There are rules that are to be obeyed between Heaven and Earth. Vengeful spirits shouldn’t have existed on Earth in the first place. Have you watched ‘Final Destination’ before?” Jonathan questioned.

“Yeah,” she answered.

“The existence of vengeful spirits is somewhat like the plot in ‘Final Destination.’ The Heavenly Law had accidentally allowed the vengeful spirits to escape. Therefore, it will try to correct this mistake by the means of what The Destino calls a Lightning Tribulation. I have a hunch that the proprietress, who has turned into a vengeful spirit, must have relied on some sort of treasure that was in Golden Years. As soon as she leaves the place, she would be nothing. Hence, I assume that’s why she didn’t allow you guys to destroy Golden Years.”

to Jonathan’s words with much interest. However, her curiosity soon got the better of her, and she asked, “How are you saying it as though you’re the person involved? It’s not like you’ve died before. Yet, you’re talking about the afterlife and death as if you’ve experienced
