Reincarnation and Divine Path's Secrets
In a fit of intense dizziness, Li Xiao felt as if an endless darkness enveloped his consciousness, and he was falling into this darkness as if he were about to fall into an abyss without end.
When he awoke from the darkness, he found himself standing on a vast, endless white expanse.
The white sand and gravel stretched endlessly across the land, seemingly merging with the horizon.
Just as he was completely bewildered, cheers erupted from the crowd nearby.
Li Xiao turned his head and saw a group of people shouting, "The Underworld! This is the Underworld! The legendary Underground 18th Layer the Underworld beneath Kunxu! The Sect Leader was right, Reincarnation after death is real!"
"We can be reincarnated now... we can be reincarnated now."
Listening to the shouts and commotion of the Demon Cult members, Li Xiao gradually came to his senses!
"I'm dead!"
He recalled those scenes at Ten Thousand Laws University City, the fierce battle between Zhang Yu and others against the Demon Cult Sect's Golden Core, and the scene of himself being ultimately crushed by Shi Huaiyu!
But the anger and pain in his heart were only fleeting, and the next moment Li Xiao's face was filled with excitement and anticipation!
"What joy is there in life? What sorrow is there in death? A lifetime of arduous cultivation is not as good as extinguishing this mortal body and Reincarnation reborn!" He loudly recited the slogan of the Feather Transformation Cult, and then, like the other followers around him, he began to laugh heartily!
"Death is not the end!"
No wonder, no wonder they don't let us die easily; they're afraid we won't continue living like slaves, afraid we'll be reincarnated!
At this moment, boundless hope flashed in Li Xiao's eyes. He seemed to have already seen his future, where he would be reincarnated into the Kunxu Fifth Layer, the Kunxu Tenth Layer, or even into Immortal Embryo!
Even if it doesn't work out in this life, there's always the next life, and the life after that!
"In one future life, I will have a better birth, a more outstanding day, and reach a higher peak on the path of Immortal Dao!"
Thinking of Zhang Yu, whose talent surpassed his own, and of Ji Huanshu, Gongshu Jin, Ying Xin, who were born into privilege... an intense longing for the future shone in Li Xiao's eyes!
At the same time, lines of text began flashing in front of him!
The Reincarnation Immortal Emperor lamented the suffering of all living beings and the hopelessness of this life. Therefore, he issued a grand decree to rebuild the Underworld, hoping to secure a sliver of immortality for all living beings in the world!
According to the contract, you can begin your 15th Reincarnation!
Li Xue, who was in the midst of her excitement, paused slightly upon seeing this line of text!
Then lines of text and data appeared before him, showing his assets. After deducting liabilities, taxes, reincarnation fees, and other necessary expenses related to his disposable assets after death, the calculation was: -2.566 Spirit Coin!
Besides the statistics on Spirit Coin, there were also various other currencies that Li Xiao had heard of or had not heard of, as well as things like Divine Ability powers, immortal artifacts, Dao Meridian, Merit, and so on—things that sounded incredibly expensive. But obviously, Li Xiao's statistics for the latter things were all zero!
As for the currency on the Layer 1, it wasn't even included in the statistics!
Looking at these numbers, Li Xiao felt an extremely ominous feeling welling up inside him!
At the same time, another option popped up in front of me!
Are there any additional posthumous assets that need to be registered? This includes hidden wealth that has been overlooked, as well as unregistered Cultivation Method and knowledge in the Daoist Canon!
You can try registering anything you deem valuable!
"Warning: There are many expenses involved in the upcoming reincarnation process. To ensure you are reborn into a good family, please carefully register your assets beforehand!"
Seeing this scene, Li Xiao's heart sank!
He then attempted to register his property, but none of his Cultivation Method or knowledge could be converted into any value!
Clearly, Li Xiao had nothing to offer in exchange for his knowledge, and even his attempts to reveal all the information he knew about Zhang Yu and the Demon Cult Sect yielded no results!
"Is it because they look down on it? Does the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor look down on these secrets? Or are there compromises between those above? Secrets held by the dead cannot be used to interfere with reality at will?"
Li Xiao didn't have a chance to verify his guess. After a series of failures, the process of registering additional posthumous property was skipped, and he proceeded to the formal reincarnation process!
A multitude of options immediately appeared before Li Xiao!
Is the Kunxu where one is reincarnated located on Layer 1 or 36th Layer?
Li Xue wanted to choose the Upper Level, but found that every level except the Layer 1 required money. Since his disposable assets would be negative after death, he could only choose the Layer 1!
After selecting the Layer 1, where exactly will he be reincarnated? Which city? The city center or the suburbs? Will he be male or female? Will he be beautiful or ugly? And what about his Immortal Dao aptitude, physical endowment... Will he have talent for weapon crafting? Martial Dao talent? Photographic Memory? Exceptional intelligence? Or was he born with Divine Spiritual Root? Immortal Spiritual Root? Or even an innate Sacred Physique? A preordained Immortal Embryo? Each choice will allow Li Xiao to legally possess these qualities in his next life, but each adjustment to his aptitude will require a high price!
Then, what is the family background? Are they from an ordinary family? Or are they the offspring of company employees? What are the parents' professions? What are their achievements? How much wealth do they have?
Even one's own personality can be subtly adjusted!
For example, one of Li Xiao's personalities in his next life is that he yearns for the Heart Aspiring to Immortality. If you want to delete this personality, or add or adjust other personalities, you still have to pay!
Below is another Merit that Li Xiao doesn't understand!
It seems that because his disposable assets after death were negative, this Merit was also shown as -326!
Li Xiao didn't know what it meant to have negative Merit from birth, but he felt it definitely wasn't a good thing!
Looking at the various reincarnation options and the costs required for each minor adjustment, Li Xiao grew increasingly desperate!
He seemed to have already seen himself life after life, living as the poorest of the poor, life after life... and just like that forever!
Li Xiao couldn't help but let his mind wander again. "If this continues, won't people get poorer and poorer? Will they be forever flowing towards the Kunxu First Layer? Where do the people above come from? What about the ever-increasing number of Demon Race at the Heavenly Demon University? Are they all reincarnated from even higher levels?"
"Or is natural reproduction also possible, since not everyone is a reincarnation?"
"Or perhaps there are other factors besides this Reincarnation that influence population adjustment... The current reincarnation process is merely a small part of a vast Reincarnation System. Perhaps the reincarnation processes differ for different levels and identities within Kunxu..."
But the next moment, he shook his head. "What's the use of thinking about this now?"
The biggest problem facing Li Xiao right now is still reincarnation!
Suddenly, someone nearby shouted, "You even care about reincarnation?"
But then another person, laughing and crying, said, "In heaven and on earth, in the Reincarnation of cause and effect, there is nothing in this world that the immortals cannot control, nothing that they cannot manage!"
They're just playing us, the immortals are playing us, and the Feather Transformation Cult is deceiving us, making us work for them and make money for them life after life, only to be completely exploited by them every time we're reincarnated!
He laughed as he sat down on the ground, muttering, "I don't want to be reincarnated, I don't want to be born poor anymore..."
Soon, because he had not initiated the reincarnation process, everything began to operate on its own, and he transformed into a rainbow of light that shot straight into the sky, embarking on a new life!
Some people wanted to commit suicide, to truly annihilate their souls, only to find that they were nothing more than a ghost in this pure white Underworld, unable even to commit suicide, and could only transform into a rainbow and depart in despair!
Seeing this scene, Li Xiao turned to look at the reincarnation options in front of him, his heart becoming as still as a stagnant pool!
"In my next life, I will be even poorer, and I won't even be a first-level Immortal Capital People anymore!"
Even in my next life, I will be poorer, and each life will be poorer than the last!
The thought of being Layer 1 poor person in his next life, and of being poor for all eternity, filled Li Xiao with an unprecedented fear!
It's because he can't see a sliver of hope for the future; all he sees is darkness and endless suffering!
At this moment, all he wanted was to die and truly rest in peace!
Amidst cries of pain, anger, and despair, Li Xiao transformed into a streak of rainbow light and soared into the sky, beginning a new chapter in his life!
Kunxu Second Layer!
Ten Thousand Laws University, University City Night!
Inside Ye Xingli's laboratory!
Upon hearing Zhang Yu's question, Fu Ji fell into deep thought for a moment!
Sure enough... Zhang Yu did ask!
Although he had temporarily resolved Feng Yuhan's problem, Zhang Yu devoted himself wholeheartedly to refining the Prototype Machine and completing the remaining steps!
But Fu Ji knew that Zhang Yu must have remembered her conversation with the Evil God in the Dark Spirit Realm. However, at that time, Fu Ji no longer wanted to hide it from Zhang Yu Fu Ji was influenced by Zhang Yu!
Perhaps it's because Zhang Yu has become more mature in Fu Ji's eyes.
This time, Fu Ji did not hide the information about Divine Path from Zhang Yu, but directly said, "Divine Path is a kind of cultivation path!"
The most basic path to Divine Path is naturally to cultivate oneself step by step into Orthodox God and become a formal employee of the Heavenly Court!
"A higher level of Divine Path is to contain the will of the Orthodox God transmitted from the Spirit Realm, becoming a vessel for the Orthodox God in the Material World, and a tool for them to interfere with reality!"
"Going even further ruthlessly would be the path Zhang Pianpian is most likely to take now..."
Upon hearing what Fu Ji said, Zhang Yu immediately became serious and listened carefully to what Fu Ji was about to say!
To become the reincarnation of a god, and step by step gain control of the Orthodox God's authority, resources, and even memories!
"Ordinary Orthodox God certainly cannot reach this level. Orthodox God who can reincarnate in this way must be a high-ranking Orthodox God in the Heavenly Court!"
Such a Orthodox God often has many incarnations. After these incarnations compete and devour each other, the one that remains at the end will become the New God!
Fu Ru sighed, "Zhang Pianpian's path... is very likely this one!"
In this process, the stronger Zhang Pianpian becomes, the more memories she will acquire belonging to the Orthodox God, until she defeats all competitors, becomes a true Orthodox God, and completely integrates those vast memories into her body!
"Of course, during this process, Zhang Pianpian could very well be defeated by other competitors and become nourishment for other reincarnated beings!"
Even if she succeeds in the end, compared to Zhang Pianpian's own limited memories, the memories of the Orthodox God are far too complex, as vast as the ocean!
