My name is Chen Luo, the Great Xuan Minister of Law, and the Human Race Dao Master.
Who would have thought that although I had only casually transformed into a mortal, I would actually end up becoming Wang Yangming.
At first, Chen Luo did not notice anything unusual. After all, the name Wang Yun, Wang Bo'an was simply too ordinary.
It was only when he comprehended "Mind is Principle" that Chen Luo finally realized what was happening!
Wang Yangming's original name was Wang Yun, his courtesy name was Bo'an, and he later changed his name to Wang Shouren, taking Yangming as his style name. He was the great synthesizer of the School of Mind.
In Chen Luo's memories, Wang Yangming from the history of his previous life had been extraordinary from birth. His mother had carried him for fourteen months. When he was born, his grandmother dreamed of a celestial deity dressed in crimson and jade, with music echoing through the clouds, cradling a red infant as he descended from heaven. That was why his grandfather named him "Yun," and why the place where he lived was named Ruiyun Tower.
Although Wang Yangming was clever, he could not speak before the age of five. Once, a high monk passed by his home and, upon seeing Wang Yangming, said, "What a fine child. What a pity that he has already revealed the Dao." After hearing this, his grandfather changed his name to "Shouren," based on the passage from the Analects—Duke Ling of Wei: "If knowledge is attained but benevolence cannot preserve it, though it is gained, it will surely be lost." Afterward, Wang Shouren began to speak.
But what was going on now?
Had this world also produced a Wang Yangming—and had he then transmigrated into this body?
