I need to confront that Tomb Guardian Elder later and resolve this issue!
The Youth Till Death does not allow such confusion to exist!
Before long, Tongtian made a new discovery. One of the powers had no memories, it was pure Soul Power.
It was the soul from his previous life, devoid of any memories.
As for the spiritual consciousness of his current life, it was still somewhat intact. Tongtian managed to capture some fragmented memory scenes.
"Yu Xin... Dantai Xuan... Father Chen Zhan? This guy is called Chen Nan?"
[From now on, I'll use the surname Chen, not Chen. Those who know, know!]
"Yu Xin, this woman is dead. This guy, seeking death, went to fight someone and died?"
"To die for a woman, hmph. There are thousands upon thousands of female cultivators in the world, why be so stubborn? Truly foolish!"
Tongtian didn't know why he had this thought, but it naturally led to the conviction that he absolutely could not give up the whole forest for just one tree.
There weren't many memory fragments, and they were basically all related to Yu Xin and Chen Zhan, so not much useful information could be obtained.
However, from these, it could be seen that this Chen Nan was the reincarnation of that Xiao Bai.
But this Chen Nan died and was inexplicably buried here. Was the person who set up the formation trying to revive Chen Nan, or Xiao Bai?
"Whatever, I'll get out first!"
Tongtian immediately cast aside his杂念 (miscellaneous thoughts) and focused on condensing his Sword Soul Dual Primordial Spirits!
In the last simulation, Tongtian spent a year to condense his Sword Soul Primordial Spirit, and seven to eight hundred years confronting the formation.
But in this simulation, Tongtian spent only one year to directly condense his Dual Primordial Spirits!
Not only that, but in ten years, he recovered his cultivation realm from the last simulation, which was the early stage of True Immortal!
However, he was still hiding. During this time, he was helping the previous life's soul and current life's body of this body, to prevent the formation from sensing them after they dissipated.
After another five years, both of Tongtian's Primordial Spirits reached the early stage of True Immortal!
Originally, Tongtian wanted to lie low for a while longer, preferably reaching the peak of True Immortal with both his Sword Soul Dual Primordial Spirits before breaking out of the formation.
But Chen Nan's current life's spiritual consciousness and the previous life's soul power could no longer bear it and instantly vanished into smoke.
Without these two forces to conceal him, Tongtian's aura was immediately sensed by the formation!
Just like in the last simulation, upon discovering the intruder, the formation's power madly attacked and tried to kill Tongtian's Primordial Spirits.
As Tongtian was being suppressed and killed by the formation, he instantly took control of Chen Nan's body.
Since he had been discovered, Tongtian no longer hid.
"Sword Splitting Style!"
With almost no hesitation, the Sword Soul outside Tongtian's Mud Palace transformed into billions of shattered swords that radiated outwards from the physical body.
BOOM--
The power of the sword path shattered everything. The formation, having already absorbed too much energy, was instantly riddled with holes.
Not only did the formation collapse, but the earthen grave also exploded, causing the entire Gods and Demons Cemetery to shake violently at that moment.
The formation was now too weak, causing the violent power of the Sword Splitting Style to penetrate it and spread to the outside!
The formation that took a thousand years to break last time was broken by Tongtian in only fifteen years this time!
Just as the formation was broken and the cemetery shook.
An old man in hemp clothes flew out of the thatched hut, instantly appearing above the exploding earthen grave. It was the Tomb Guardian Elder.
The Tomb Guardian Elder looked at the billowing smoke and dust, his expression grave and surprised.
That kid Chen Nan had only been buried for less than nine thousand years, how could he emerge at this time? Did something unexpected happen?
The next moment, the Tomb Guardian Elder's eyes flashed with sharp light, and his gaze fixed directly on the sky.
At this moment, Tongtian's figure had already flown out from underground, his tattered body suspended in the void.
"Early stage Heavenly Rank!"
The Tomb Guardian Elder stared at Tongtian, feeling his astonishing aura, and his heart grew even more surprised and uncertain.
Tongtian naturally noticed the Tomb Guardian Elder immediately. Before the Tomb Guardian Elder could speak, he said with a solemn expression, "In my previous life, I was Xiao Bai, and in this life, I am called Chen Nan. Is this answer correct?"
Upon hearing this, the Tomb Guardian Elder was stunned.
This answer was completely correct, but... I don't think I asked you a question.
No! Something's not right!
He's so eager to prove his identity to me, this kid has a problem, a big problem!
The next moment, the Tomb Guardian Elder made his move, waving his hand and grabbing towards Tongtian, wanting to capture him first.
Seeing this, Tongtian was furious and said, "This is also wrong? Then tell me, how should I answer!"
He was no longer at the Earth Immortal Realm of last time, powerless to resist the Tomb Guardian Elder. This time he was at the early stage of True Immortal!
There was still a slight gap in strength, but it was impossible for him to be easily suppressed and killed again!
Boom!
Tongtian's body flickered with sword light, and sword shadows filled the void, slashing directly at the Tomb Guardian Elder's large hand.
Bang bang bang--
The sword shadows collided with the Tomb Guardian Elder's hand, erupting in earth-shattering roars.
If not for the special energy protection of the Gods and Demons Cemetery, this place might have been shaken into ruins.
As the sword shadows dissipated, the Tomb Guardian Elder withdrew his hand. A bloody gash had appeared at the edge of his thumb.
So strong? He could injure me at the early Heavenly Rank!
He should know that his true body is the Life and Death Plate, which even the Great Annihilation couldn't destroy. Yet now, it's injured!
This absolutely cannot be Chen Nan!
And it absolutely cannot be Dugu Xiao Bai!
Let alone Dugu Xiao Bai's Soul Power being unconscious memory, even if it were, he doesn't cultivate the sword path!
The Tomb Guardian Elder's heart stirred, and he then stared at Tongtian with a grave expression, saying in a deep voice, "Are you Yellow Heaven, or Azure Heaven?"
The Gods and Demons Cemetery had a grand background, forged by the strongest individuals of this world.
Coupled with Chen Nan's revival, and Dugu Baitian's involvement, this matter could not possibly be known by outsiders.
If anyone in this world had the ability to interfere with this matter, it could only be the sealed Yellow Heaven, and the strongest Heaven in this world, Azure Heaven!
Tongtian thought that no matter what he said now, it would be wrong, so he might as well choose to reveal everything!
"What bullshit Azure Heaven and Yellow Heaven?"
"Remember this, this seat—Tongtian!"
Chapter 32: Tongtian: Next time we meet, you will be this seat's spiritual treasure! [Seeking Collections and Flowers]
In the God's Tomb World, under the Heavenly Dao, four Great Heavens evolved.
The strongest, without a doubt, was the Heavenly Dao of the entire world itself.
Below it were Azure Heaven, Yellow Heaven, Azure Heaven, and Nether Heaven.
The Heavenly Dao was the world will of the God's Tomb World, formless and immaterial, yet it dominated everything between heaven and earth.
Azure Heaven and the other tangible Heavens were born from the resentment of all living beings, twisted ideologies.
However, countless years ago, Chen Nan's ancestor had already killed Nether Heaven, even refining it into a humanoid weapon.
Although this humanoid weapon had been causing trouble for the Chen family, with several Heavenly Rank ancestors dead or defected.
Nether Heaven had indeed been killed by the Chen ancestor, being the first Heaven to be killed, though not entirely thoroughly.
Next was Azure Heaven, the weakest of the Heavens, and it had long been slain by powerful individuals. Those who acted included the father of Chen Nan's previous life, Dugu Xiao Bai, the Demon Lord who stained the Azure Heaven with my demonic blood, and Chu Xiangyu, along with seven other Archaic Monarchs. They joined forces to kill it.
The combined effort of several individuals to slay Azure Heaven also led to the emergence of Yellow Heaven!
Azure Heaven is dead, Yellow Heaven shall stand. But this Heaven did not last long before it was sealed by the Demon Lord during its transformation period.
As for Azure Heaven, it was the strongest Heaven under the Heavenly Dao!
The Heavens still active today were Azure Heaven, and the sealed Yellow Heaven.
Azure Heaven, needless to say, was originally the strongest. As long as the Heavenly Dao existed, it would be reborn.
Even though Yellow Heaven was sealed, it could still differentiate its power and cause chaos in the world.
The Tomb Guardian Elder's true body was the Life and Death Plate. It had experienced multiple Great Annihilations and participated in the ancient war against the Heavens, so it naturally understood these matters.
Therefore, after confirming that Chen Nan was no longer Chen Nan, he concluded that Tongtian was related to Azure Heaven and Yellow Heaven.
Because only these two Heavens had the ability to break the plans of Dugu Baitian and the Demon Lord!
However, Tongtian's proactive self-declaration of his name now confused the Tomb Guardian Elder.
Especially since Tongtian had also insulted Azure Heaven and Yellow Heaven, acting as if he had absolutely no connection to them.
