Reincarnation?
Reincarnation of the soul?
Is this a cycle inherent to Azeroth itself?
Leaving the Shadowlands?
Jiang Jie's words were truly astonishing!
This is not an unprecedented idea, because in fact, legends about "eternal life of the soul" have always circulated in the mortal world.
Although only a very small number of people truly know of the existence of the Shadowlands, speculation about Shadowlands has long been prevalent among mortals and other intelligent beings.
However, in those people's speculations and in those ancient myths and legends, the Shadowlands is given other names, such as Hell, Underworld, or Netherworld.
Although the wording differs, the general description of the Shadowlands is the same:
It was an incredibly tragic world, a cold and decaying world, a world of despair without hope, a world fit for bad people.
Ironically, the Shadowlands accepts all souls, not just the souls of bad people.
Good people and bad people alike will end up in the same place.
In this respect, it treats everyone equally.
No one wants to rot in the cold prisons of the Shadowlands; they would rather go to a brighter world after death and continue to live in another form. This is why the " Cult of the Damned " is so prevalent.
Kel'Thuzad tempts people with the promise of "immortality"—how many can resist that temptation?
However, the Undead are not the only way to continue existing.
In Shaman doctrine, there is the concept of " Ancestral Spirit." A sufficiently powerful warrior can, with the help of Shaman magic, remain in the human world forever, existing in the form of " Ancestral Spirit." In fact, the so-called " Ancestral Spirit " are very similar to the incense offerings made to ancestors in Huaxia legends.
When a powerful Troll dies, it becomes a " Loa," receiving offerings from its descendants and continuing to exist.
Night Elf, transformed from Dark Trolls, undergo an even more direct and thorough transformation. After death, they become spirits, existing in the form of " Wisp," and are said to have no lifespan limit, existing eternally.
Some Priest even preach about the existence of "heaven," "god's kingdom," and "paradise," a world of light where those who believe in them will have eternal life.
There are many kinds, such as these.
Odyn had the most thorough understanding of the Shadowlands and developed a method to transform the Val'kyr, allowing the Vrykul warriors to exist in another form after death, not only with infinite lifespan but also with greater physique and strength.
Although Helya harbored deep hatred for Odyn, she used the knowledge of the Shadowlands she received from Odyn to create a small world called " Helheim," somewhat similar to the Shadowlands. The Vrykul, guided by her and her followers, attained eternity there.
Unfortunately, Halls of Valor and Helheim only accept sufficiently powerful Vrykul, showing disdain for other races.
Of course, it's also possible that Halls of Valor and the Helheim are not perfect enough to accommodate the souls of other races.
Jiang Jie's proposed "reincarnation" is the soul of all Azeroth, interfering with death throughout Azeroth and sending different people to different abodes after death.
Halls of Valor, Helheim, the Emerald Dream...
Even after death, they may be reincarnated as humans or other races, such as Orcs or Night Elf.
This idea is too grand and too incredible, far exceeding the ambitions of Odyn and Helya. It's something even the Titan Keepers couldn't achieve. What makes Jiang Jie think he can do it?
Upon hearing Jiang Jie's words, the blue dragon Azuregos snorted, making no attempt to conceal the sarcasm in his voice. "Ignorant mortals..."
"Mortals are indeed more ignorant than you immortal beings, but the civilizations built by mortals are far more glorious and splendid than those built by dragons... No, dragons have never built a civilization at all. You are just a small group on Azeroth. What are you?"
Jiang Jie glanced at Azuregos and said coldly, "Besides sleeping and guarding the authority and responsibilities bestowed upon you by the Titans, what else can you do? You know more than that."
"And you harbor even greater fear. You lack the courage to be fearless, which is why Neltharion fell and became Deathwing, Malygos remains mad to this day... You? Nothing more than this!" "Tsk tsk, ignorant humans, you have no idea what you're talking about! What you're about to do is something only the Titans could do!"
Azuregos shook his enormous dragon head, continuing his taunts, "You can't possibly accomplish it. You don't even know what the Shadowlands are! The Shadowlands aren't the Shadowlands of Azeroth. They're different from the Emerald Dream. They existed long before life in the physical world was born. Even the Titans don't know how they came to be. The only certainty is that the Shadowlands are infinitely vast and connected to the entire universe..."
How do you know I don't?
Jiang Jie didn't even glance at Azuregos, but instead looked at the Spirit Healer and asked, "What you've been doing all this time is resurrecting those you believe shouldn't have died. But your power is limited; there are only seven of you! Join the Forsaken; they need you, and you need them!"
Azuregos was ignored by Jiang Jie and looked sullen.
The Spirit Healer remained calm and gentle. "Grand Duke, is your purpose in establishing the Kingdom of the Forsaken to create a cycle of reincarnation for Azeroth?"
"There is great terror between life and death; no one wants to end it all after death, or rot in the cold prison of the Shadowlands."
Jiang Jie said, "I believe that in this vast universe, there must be beings with sufficient intelligence and power who have established one soul plane after another, free from the influence of the Shadowlands. What I want to do is something similar to what they have done. In fact, this is not without precedent."
Huaxia legends contain a system of reincarnation, and in the 35th century, there were also studies about the soul and its destiny.
In fact, many powerful martial artists and some remarkable scientists have already researched the destination of the soul, which involves the Shadowlands.
Of course, influenced by the legends of various cultures around the world, the Shadowlands is referred to as "Hell," "Netherworld," "Underworld," or other names.
This kind of knowledge is also available in the gaming pod.
Establishing a system of reincarnation is a dream for many.
However, it is simply impossible to establish a complete system of reincarnation based solely on that knowledge.
The civilizations in the Milky Way are only a few thousand years old, less than ten thousand years old, and in many ways, they are far inferior to the research of the Titans and the Titan Keepers.
Jiang Jie arrived in Azeroth.
This place is full of mysteries, including Halls of Valor and the Helheim, and a myriad of different souls finding their final resting place.
If we add the relevant knowledge from the game pod, it might actually be possible to build a small reincarnation system covering only one planet, allowing souls to cycle repeatedly within that planet and escape the influence of the Shadowlands.
People in this world always have something to do.
Jiang Jie now possesses at least several thousand or tens of thousands of years of life, and if he steps into a higher level, he may even possess eternal life.
So, what should one do in this eternal life?
Fighting the Burning Legion is endlessly enjoyable;
Fighting against the Void Lords is an endless source of joy.
But besides these, there must be some other pursuits, right?
Jiang Jie for the universe and the starry sky, and one day he will be like Medivh, casting aside everything to roam the endless starry sky, but not now.
Now, he wants to do something special:
He wanted to establish a cycle of reincarnation in Azeroth.
He did not establish the " Kingdom of the Forsaken " in order to create a reincarnation system, but there is no doubt that the existence of the " Kingdom of the Forsaken " will become the greatest aid in establishing the reincarnation system.
To establish a cycle of reincarnation, the help of many powerful and wise individuals is necessary, such as Freya who weaves the Emerald Dream, the Green Dragon Queen, Odyn, Eyir, and Helya.
But getting help from these people isn't so easy.
Now that we're in Azshara, we should naturally look for the Spirit Healer and see if we can persuade her.
This is Jiang Jie's purpose in coming here.
