Merit Suppresses the Soul, Reincarnation as a Human
When Hong Yun chose to reunite with the original source, Cihang did not stop him.
Because he knew that although reuniting with the original source was difficult, it was still possible to succeed.
Moreover, rebuilding it once would not be without benefits for Hong Yun, as it would lay a more solid foundation.
However, Cihang's thoughts changed after meeting the Sanxiao.
The Hong Yun were formed from the first Hong Yun imbued with auspicious energy at the beginning of creation.
Not only is he exceptionally talented, but he is also the patriarch of the Cloud Path, possessing exclusive mastery of the Cloud Path.
His later achievements were also inseparable from his good fortune.
However, after the self-destruction, the essence of the Hong Yun dissipated completely.
The Sanxiao of Sanxiao were greatly enhanced by the Hong Yun's origin, and more importantly, they inherited the fortune of the innate cloud path.
Besides the Sanxiao of Sanxiao, Yun Zhongzi of the Chan Sect later also had a very close relationship with Hong Yun.
Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for Hong Yun to reunite his original fortune.
Even if he were to reassemble his physical body, he would not be able to reach his peak.
If he couldn't even break through to Quasi-Saint level after another attempt at cultivation, even someone with Hong Yun's composure would find it unacceptable.
This visit to Wuzhuang Temple was also for Hong Yun's sake.
"Fellow Daoist Cihang, what do you mean by this? Does Hong Yun not have an unknown calamity ahead of him?"
Zhenyuanzi's expression changed instantly.
Zhenyuanzi went to great lengths for Hong Yun.
Although Hong Yun's physical body is now shattered, he has at least preserved his true soul.
With diligent cultivation, given Hong Yun's talent and potential, returning to his peak is only a matter of time.
But this time, Cihang's words made him doubtful.
Is Hong Yun's tribulation not over yet?
Heaven simply cannot tolerate Hong Yun.
Thinking of this, Zhenyuanzi felt both helpless and angry.
Hong Yun has never done anything evil and has always been kind to everyone, so why does she have to go through all this?
"Fellow Daoist, please calm down. Fellow Daoist Hongyun's tribulation has indeed dissipated."
But for him to reunite with his original essence, it probably won't be that easy!
Cihang directly stated her guess about her encounter with the Sanxiao.
"Fellow Daoist means that Hong Yun's fortune has dissipated, and even its origin has been devoured and merged!"
Zhenyuanzi's expression grew increasingly grim.
He had indeed sensed that Hong Yun's luck had dimmed considerably.
He assumed it was because Del was still recovering from serious injuries after the self-destruction.
It now appears that the fortune of the Cloud Path has completely dissipated.
Even if Hong Yun successfully rebuilds, he will no longer be the Ancestor of the Cloud Path.
Is it possible for him to fully recover?
"That's right, that's exactly why I came to Wuzhuang Temple."
Fellow Daoist and Hong Yun should make a decision soon!
Having met, Cihang naturally did not want to see Hong Yun walk down a dead end.
"As you said, Fellow Daoist, the original fortune has been lost. Even if Hong Yun has the original memories and experience, it will be difficult for him to return to his peak."
This is clearly a dead end!
Zhenyuanzi let out a sigh. After his initial excitement, he regained his usual composure.
Fortunately, it was discovered early, and there was still time to save everything.
Zhenyuanzi immediately invited Cihang to join him as they headed deeper into the Wuzhuang Temple.
Until they came to a towering ancient tree.
"Ginseng Fruit Tree, Zhenyuanzi Yuanzi is really willing to part with it!"
I'm even a little envious of Hong Yun!
Cihang immediately noticed that Hong Yun was possessing the ginseng Ginseng Fruit Tree, using the Ginseng Fruit Tree's essence to restore himself.
This would indeed be of great benefit to Hong Yun, but it would consume a huge amount of resources from the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
If this continues, the Ginseng Fruit Tree may even drop in grade.
"Hong Yun is my dearest friend, so all of this is naturally worthwhile."
Why should you envy Hong Yun, fellow Daoist? If you were in trouble, Zhenyuanzi would spare no effort to help you.
However, with your cultivation and wisdom, you would never allow yourself to fall into such a predicament.
On the contrary, Hong Yun and I rely on you more, fellow Daoist!
Zhenyuanzi's words were sincere and without a trace of falsehood.
"Since we are close friends, we must naturally care about these things. Fellow Daoist, please awaken Hong Yun!"
This matter concerns his future path, and it is ultimately up to him to make the choice!
Cihang did not suspect Zhenyuanzi.
When Taiqing invited him that day, Zhenyuanzi was also willing to face it together.
This alone was enough to convince Cihang of Zhenyuanzi.
Although the relationships among cultivators in the Primordial World are mostly intertwined with interests, genuine feelings still exist.
Zhenyuanzi formed a hand seal Magic Seal into the Ginseng Fruit Tree, awakening Hong Yun was dormant and cultivating within it.
A flash of light appeared, Hong Yun's somewhat ethereal figure appeared before the two.
"Zhenyuanzi, Fellow Daoist Cihang, why have you awakened me at this time? Has something happened?"
Although Hong Yun was still in the form of a divine soul, it was clearly much more solidified.
A faint Hong Yun surrounded him, nourishing his soul.
Cihang once again shared her speculations with Hong Yun, urging her to make a decision as soon as possible.
"No wonder I encountered so many obstacles during my recovery and was unable to reconstruct my physical body."
This world truly intends to sever my path to enlightenment!
In an instant, a fierce aura rose from Hong Yun's body, and his soul fluctuated violently.
"There are countless paths to the same destination. Since this path is blocked, we can find another. Why go to such lengths?"
Behind Cihang, the Merit Golden Wheel manifested, and thousands of golden lights shone upon Hong Yun's soul, soothing it.
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist."
"A small obstacle almost made me lose my composure; please forgive my foolishness, fellow Daoist."
Under the Merit Golden Light, the malevolent aura of the Hong Yun dissipated, and clarity was restored.
"Although it is difficult for you to gather your original essence now, fortunately, it is not too late."
My previous promise still stands, so it's best for you to make a decision soon, fellow Daoist!
Hong Yun's cultivation was completely dissipated, leaving only his divine soul, and his state of mind was naturally greatly affected.
Fortunately, the Merit Golden Wheel stabilized his soul in time.
"Are there any other options?"
Hong Yun asked hesitantly.
The choice Cihang had given was undoubtedly excellent, but Hong Yun always felt that it didn't quite fit her own personality.
What do you think of the human race, fellow Daoist?
Although the human race was extremely fragile at birth, it had unlimited potential.
With your cultivation experience, fellow cultivator, regaining your peak is not difficult!
Cihang's mind raced, and she had a new idea.
"Human race, fellow Daoist, do you mean for me to be passed down through the human race, to cultivate anew in human form!"
Hong Yun's eyes lit up as well.
Although the human race continued to develop, the powerful beings in this world also discovered the extraordinary nature of the human race and paid more attention to it.
"That's right, he's a reincarnated human."
Although I am not comparable to the two saints Nuwa and Taiqing, I still wield some authority among the human race.
"Helping fellow cultivators reincarnate is still an option."
Reincarnating as a human not only allows Hong Yun to embark on the path of rebuilding his cultivation as quickly as possible, but it also brings great benefits to the human race.
Once Hong Yun's strength is restored, it will also drive the development of the human race.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Daoist. I've decided to reincarnate as a human!"
Hong Yun made her choice immediately without hesitation.
Zhenyuanzi also strongly agreed with this.
"Alright, I will help you be reborn as a human!"
Cihang readily agreed, Hong Yun's reincarnation into the human race would also increase his influence among humans.
