Possessing a Spiritual Root, Seizing His Own Destiny
Xingchen quickly mastered his current cultivation level, and looking at the quiet palace, a complex expression appeared on his face.
He was reborn and gained the cultivation of Primordial Origin Golden Immortal in one fell swoop, which was definitely beyond his expectations.
But instead of being overjoyed, he showed a regretful expression.
He has successfully been reborn and now possesses absolute freedom.
But he also missed his greatest opportunity.
With Xingchen's insight, it's not hard to see that Cihang is definitely the cultivator with the strongest potential in the entire Primordial World.
Now it has transcended the Primordial World.
Even if he hadn't been robbed, he couldn't compare to Cihang.
If he can befriend Cihang, his future cultivation path will surely be incredibly smooth.
But because of his own caution and apprehension, he missed this opportunity.
"Never mind, there are gains and losses in everything."
Isn't this what I wanted all along? Being too greedy is not a good thing.
With my current foundation, attaining enlightenment will not be an obstacle.
As for Cihang, he will visit her in person later to apologize.
Even if we can't befriend them, we absolutely mustn't become enemies!
Xingchen, being a resilient person, quickly regained her composure.
He then remembered Ziwei's instructions before she left, and immediately used his primordial spirit power to sever his connection with the Mount Luojia lineage.
At the same time, he also stated in his capacity as the Great Emperor Ziwei that the Xingchen lineage would become independent in the future and would have no further connection with the Ziwei lineage.
This news immediately caused a huge uproar in the Primordial World.
Lower-level cultivators might not know, but cultivators above the Great Luo all know the connection between Ziwei and Cihang.
Now that all Karma and effect and connections have been severed, what exactly is Ziwei trying to do?
Does Cihang have other plans?
Although they had many guesses, no one dared to interfere.
The Cihang lineage has long been a taboo that cultivators of the Primordial World must not provoke.
Even though Xingchen broke away from the Cihang lineage on its own, no one dared to provoke it.
Xingchen had no time to worry about these things; instead, he was sorting out the disciples of the Falling Star Mountain lineage.
Although the Falling Star Mountain lineage has become independent due to its incarnation, it still maintains close ties with Mount Luojia.
Disciples from the Mount Luojia lineage were naturally among them.
Now that he has no connection with Cihang, he naturally cannot force these disciples to stay.
The stars immediately gave them the opportunity to choose for themselves.
Although these ordinary disciples did not know exactly what changes had occurred, they instinctively knew what the best choice was for themselves.
Nearly a third of the disciples chose to leave Luoxing Mountain and return to Mount Luojia.
Not only Luoxing Mountain, but also many cultivators from the lineage of Great Emperor Ziwei have left.
As for whether they were afraid that Xingchen would hold a grudge afterward, they were actually not afraid.
Even if Cihang leaves, the Mount Luojia lineage is not something that others can scheme against.
Of course, Xingchen had no intention of seeking revenge afterward.
He felt not even the slightest bit of gratitude towards Cihang.
Moreover, although he had broken away from the Mount Luojia lineage, Cihang's influence remained, so he could be said to have benefited greatly.
After settling everything, Xingchen led the disciples of Falling Star Mountain back to the Heavenly Court.
Unlike Ziwei, the starry sky was his only foundation.
After the stars returned, it was natural that some cultivators would try to find out more, especially Haotian.
This split between the stars and Mount Luojia has had a profound and unseen impact on Haotian.
Although Ziwei hadn't fully supported him before, he still received a lot of benefits because of their shared origin in the Heavenly Court.
Now, however, he can no longer rely on the influence of Mount Luojia.
However, Xingchen did not explain much, and all the cultivators who tried to probe him returned empty-handed.
Even so, powerful figures like Haotian still noticed the difference.
Even if their cultivation levels and auras are the same, there are still significant differences between Xingchen and Ziwei.
Furthermore, as Xingchen gains more control over the body, this difference will become increasingly pronounced.
All the cultivators who had seen the stars were certain of one thing: the stars and Mount Luojia were truly no longer related.
Although Xingchen did not explain to the others, he also did not hide his changes.
This attitude, on the contrary, made many powerful figures even more wary and dared not easily plot against them.
Perhaps the Great Emperor Ziwei was replaced quietly, but even without Cihang, Xingchen was still a powerful being at the Primordial Origin Golden Immortal.
With his cultivation level and the power of his Great Emperor Rank/Position alone, he had already driven back a group of villains.
Although the change of the Great Emperor Ziwei's throne caused a stir, it was quickly quelled.
As for Ziwei, she was also reborn through a secret technique of the divine soul.
No, after shedding her Star God Body, the name Ziwei also completely vanished.
At the foot of Flower-Fruit Mountain, an ordinary valley suddenly bursts with life, and hundreds of flowers bloom in the valley in an instant.
At the same time, the mysterious power of life evolved into a large wood-elemental life array, enveloping the entire valley.
Only a single withered tree in the valley stood in stark contrast to the lush greenery of the valley.
However, if one senses carefully, one can discover that beneath the withered and gray exterior of the tree lies a vigorous vitality and pure Innate Spiritual Qi.
Just then, a flash of inspiration appeared in the withered tree, and a wave of consciousness spread out.
Who could have imagined that an Innate Spiritual Root would end up almost withered and decayed?
However, meeting me was a matter of fate.
Ziwei's voice echoed from within the withered tree spirit root.
"Even if we sever the Karma, we cannot use the name Ziwei anymore."
This body is for cultivating the Dao in the mortal world; from now on, I will call myself "Mingxin"!
As Ziwei finished speaking, all Karma with the Xingchen lineage were completely severed.
In the future, Ziwei will no longer exist in the Primordial World, only Mingxin, who cultivates the Dao in the Mingxin.
Mingxin's voice was full of ease and joy.
Although she had lost everything, Mingxin felt no reluctance whatsoever.
The Way of Stars the Ziwei Stars is good, but it has never belonged to him.
Because of the Star Spirit, there was always a barrier between him and Ziwei's body.
It wouldn't have a significant impact normally, but it dashed his hopes for further advancement.
Although the main body doesn't care how strong he is, he does care.
In the Primordial World era, this primordial spirit incarnation of the original being was a complete subordinate.
But now that the original body has left, and having severed its karmic Karma with the stars, it has developed its own will.
It was because he saw this glimmer of opportunity that he was able to abandon everything without hesitation and choose to start over.
In fact, his guess was correct.
As the connection with the stars was severed, the will of the original body gradually weakened.
This was not a bad thing for him, but rather a struggle for the awakening of self-awareness.
This also means that he has the opportunity to prove the Dao of Hunyuan.
Of course, all of that is still a long way off. Right now, the most important thing is to strengthen one's own foundation.
Mingxin's primordial spirit also began to operate instantly, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to nourish the origin of his body.
Normally, even the lowest-grade Innate Spiritual Root wouldn't end up like this.
Unfortunately, it was born in the wrong place.
While the Primordial Origin is indeed strengthening, it is mostly accumulating foundational energy.
The decline of Primordial World spiritual energy is an irreversible trend.
Before the birth of the Clever Stone Monkey, it had plundered the life force and destiny of the entire mountain range.
This is why the Innate Spiritual Root withered.
But that was all in the past. Now that Mingxin is here, everything is different.
If this being can gradually transform their innate aptitude, so can he.
