Rebirth of Olivier

As an old bookworm, Xiao Wei had transmigrated.

When Xiao Wei woke up, he discovered he had become Olivia Achisoren from Coiling Dragon, having just been nearly beaten to death by Rock Sword Saint Hudson. Having just completed his soul mutation, Olivia—Coiling Dragon was a series Xiao Wei loved dearly, having read it two or three times, and he was very clear about Olivia's life. Xiao Wei was suddenly filled with a mix of worry and joy. He worried about what would happen to his parents, though he comforted himself that since Linley would eventually become a Controller, there was a possibility he might return. The joy was that he would have a truly passionate life, capable of living forever.

After the initial tangle of emotions, Xiao Wei decided to first do a good job of being Olivia. As for going home, he would wait until Linley became a Controller. Regarding replacing Linley—any fool knew that Olivia couldn't possibly replace him. Olivia only had talents in Light and Darkness; he couldn't walk Linley's path. Xiao Wei was certainly no fool.

Xiao Wei checked his body and discovered that his soul was countless times stronger than it had been before Olivia fell unconscious. What was once a stream was now an ocean, and his soul crystal had transformed into a Sword-Shaped Soul. If he were to execute the "Black Stone Sword" technique now, he could definitely kill Hudson instantly. Xiao Wei felt that the Olivia in the original book surely hadn't possessed such a powerful soul after his mutation; this was likely the result of the fusion and mutation between himself and the original Olivia's soul.

Furthermore, whenever he thought of Blumer, Xiao Wei felt a strong urge to protect him. Olivia's soul influenced the fused Xiao Wei to a certain extent. Xiao Wei thought, Since it is like this, in this world, I am Olivia. I will protect Blumer, my only kin, and remain as a new Olivia.

Just as Olivia finished his thought, Blumer walked into the room, looking very sad and dejected. When he discovered Olivia sitting on the bed, he froze for a moment before crying out in joy and running over to hug him.

"Big Brother, you're awake! That's great, that's great!"

Olivia could deeply feel the brotherly bond and knew how worried Blumer had been for him, so he said:

"Alright, Big Brother is fine now."

Patting Blumer on the back, Olivia thought: This is my brother. It felt very natural.

After a long while, Blumer finally calmed down. Olivia felt that Blumer was too dependent on him; while brotherly love was good, Blumer needed to be more independent, which would be beneficial for his future cultivation and handling of affairs. The new Olivia had integrated into the role of an elder brother.

"Blumer, you are all grown up now; you need to be stronger. If something happens to Big Brother one day, you must stay strong for the sake of the family. Look at you now, just like a child," Olivia said.

"Big Brother, nothing will happen to you, hehe."

Olivia knew that words alone wouldn't work; he needed to guide him properly.

"Blumer, how long have I been unconscious?"

"Big Brother, tomorrow will be three months," Blumer replied.

"By the way, Big Brother, tomorrow Hudson and Linley are having a duel above Tu Jiao Mountain, west of the city," Blumer added.

"Oh, I'll go take a look tomorrow," Olivia said calmly, as he had expected it.

"Alright, Blumer, you haven't rested well these past few days, go back and get some sleep," Olivia said. Although Blumer was excited to see him awake, he clearly hadn't rested well over the last three months, and he himself needed to adapt to his new identity.

"Okay, Big Brother, you should rest too." Blumer had always listened to Olivia.

"En, I'm fine. Go ahead and rest, don't worry."

After Blumer left, Olivia carefully looked around the room. Although the original Olivia's soul had memories of it, seeing it with his own eyes felt very different. It was a room styled like an ancient European castle, and the items within were all exquisite. If taken to Earth, any single piece would be worth a fortune. But here, they were easily obtained; in this world where might made right, these things were of no use to him.

Olivia stopped focusing on these objects; he needed to thoroughly check his body to understand his current state. Olivia found his soul to be powerful, his perception of the earth much clearer, his thinking sharper than ever before, and his comprehension of the Laws significantly clearer. Olivia was overjoyed; this meant he would progress faster and reach godhood by comprehending the Laws. Originally, Olivia had some insights into the Profundity of Light Elemental, the Profundity of Light Speed, and the Profundity of Darkness Elemental. After that battle, Olivia felt even clearer about the Profundity of Light Elemental and the Profundity of Darkness Elemental.

Olivia had no desire to rest. As someone from Earth, he knew the importance of summarizing and reflecting after a battle, and he was impatient to experience the cultivation he had dreamed of.

The night passed as Olivia cultivated.

The next morning, Olivia and Blumer went to Tu Jiao Mountain west of the city early to watch the duel between Hudson and Linley.

On the afternoon of the 84th day of the 19th year of the Yulan Calendar, the weather was beautiful. The deep blue sky was dotted with only a few silk-like white clouds, and the wind was light. The gentle breeze blowing against his face felt as comfortable as a lover's touch.

Tu Jiao Mountain, west of the city.

This mountain was only about a thousand meters high and a few miles in circumference; it wasn't a large mountain. For Saint-level experts, it was very, very small. Around the mountain, there was a sea of people, and the army had divided them into sections, keeping everything orderly.

Above Tu Jiao Mountain, Linley stood in mid-air!

The empire's nobles were all hundreds of meters away from the foot of the mountain, surrounding it.

Wharton, the five Barker brothers, and the others were naturally at the front, relatively close to Emperor Joanne and the royals. Delia and Master Longers were also close to Wharton and his group.

Olivia and Blumer appeared to the side. Olivia was in white robes, and Blumer in black.

"It will be very difficult for Linley to win," Olivia said, just as in the original story.

"Olivia?" Wharton and the others were very surprised.

"Didn't expect me to be alive?" Olivia teased, seeing their surprise.

"However, I hope Linley won't die. If he dies, this world would be far too boring." Olivia knew Linley wouldn't die and said this intentionally, though it was also his true thought—Coiling Dragon couldn't exist without Linley.

"Olivia, my Lord is not someone you can compare to," Gates said indignantly.

"Hehe." Olivia felt that discussing this with them was truly meaningless, so he stopped talking.

Blumer was a bit surprised. What was wrong with his Big Brother today? His tone was different from usual; it seemed as if he wasn't as cold as before.

"Lord Hudson has arrived!" A voice rang out in the crowd.

Hudson arrived above Tu Jiao Mountain and stood in a standoff with Linley.

Olivia clearly saw Wharton and the others tense up.

The battle began quickly, and the result was the same as in the original story. Hudson used Earth Split, and Linley countered with the first wave of the Profound Truths of the Earth. In the end, Linley's battle qi was not as deep as Hudson's, and he fell into a disadvantage. Bebe made his move, directly slapping Hudson away and intending to kill him, but was stopped by Linley, who intimidated him into submission.

Linley flipped his hand to take a robe from his interspatial ring, resumed his human form, put it on, and said with a faint smile: "Bebe, Heilu, let's go back."

Seeing this combination of one man and two beasts, many people felt the pressure, including Emperor Joanne, Kenyon, Lanko, and others. However, there was one person who felt absolutely no pressure, and that was Olivia. He knew that in the short term, he shouldn't fall behind Linley; after all, he possessed such a powerful soul.

However, it was indeed very necessary to get on good terms with Linley and Bebe.

"Hey, Linley, you're stronger than me, but I will surpass you soon," Olivia said lightly, which many people dismissed.

Linley felt this Olivia was a bit strange, but he truly regarded Olivia as an opponent, especially since he had survived under those circumstances and the other's fighting spirit was even more intense.

"I'll be waiting for that day!" Linley retorted.

"Hahaha, Bebe, was it? Even Heidens couldn't cleave through your defense, and I can't beat you either! You're even more of a freak than Linley," Olivier said to Bebe.

Hearing Olivier put it that way, Bebe puffed out his chest and tilted his head up, looking quite smug.

"That goes without saying! Just who do you think I am!"

"Blumer, let's go." Olivier took Blumer and left.

Linley watched the enigmatic Olivier, thinking to himself, Did Heidens beat some sense out of his brain?

The next day, at Olivier and Blumer's residence.

"Blumer, in a few days I will be heading to the Far North Ice Sheet for ascetic training. I thought about it last night, and there are some things I need to tell you," Olivier said to Blumer.

"Yes, brother, I'm listening," Blumer replied.

"Do things according to your own heart; don't be influenced by glory, jealousy, or the like. Like this time, when you proposed to Joanne—you have absolutely no feelings for Nina, so why did you do it? It was just some strange psychological impulse of yours. If it were truly a woman you loved, Brother would have absolutely no objections, and you could pursue her however you liked. You must understand what your own heart truly wants," Olivier said.

"Yes, I understand, brother." Blumer nodded repeatedly.

"Also, you're a grown man now. Don't just do whatever Brother says; you need to have your own ideas. What I say isn't necessarily suitable for you; I can only offer you advice," Olivier continued.

Blumer didn't quite understand; he had always treated Olivier as his idol and followed his every word.

"Every powerhouse possesses a resolute heart that no one can shake."

"Furthermore, when training, contemplate more. If you practice a sword technique once or twice, you might gain nothing, but if you practice it twenty thousand times, you will absolutely have deeper insights than after two attempts. You must carefully reflect during the practice process; this will help you comprehend the Profundity of the Laws," Olivier said, while Blumer listened from the side.

"Brother, what is the Profundity of the Laws?" Blumer asked.

"For example, the Profundity of Light Speed within the Laws of Light. The Light Shadow Sword is mainly based on this profundity. Once speed reaches a certain level, it creates shadows; this is the Profundity of Light Speed. Every martial art or magic corresponds to a profundity. If you contemplate carefully and possess high aptitude, you may comprehend the Profundity of the Laws. Both Linley and Heidens have comprehended the Profundity of the Laws, while Tyrone has basically not. That is why I was able to easily defeat him as soon as I entered the Saint-level. I hope you can become a god independently in the future. Remember to work hard; I will be leaving in two days." Olivier felt that was enough, giving Blumer a direction to strive toward.

Blumer didn't fully grasp what Olivier meant, but he memorized every word. He didn't want to—and wouldn't—let Olivier down.

On the 9th day of the 19th year of the Yulan Calendar, Olivier set out for the Far North Ice Sheet.
