Three days later, under the witness of Wang Wu, Zhuang Bufei, Feng Muhai, and Qu Shenglian, Lu Tong was smoothly reincarnated.
"Truly enviable, Senior Brother has acquired two great opportunities at once: one is Nirvana Rebirth, achieving Great Enlightennt, obtaining the Dao Domain; the other is this reincarnation. The timing had to be just right. Sir, with you in the Frost Domain, it will certainly flourish in the future!"
Zhuang Bufei lanted deeply.
"Is reincarnation also considered a great opportunity?"
"Indeed, it must be counted as such, and it should not be considered any lesser than the first great opportunity. Although it seems that any Earth Immortal could reincarnate, none can compare to Senior Brother’s kind, severing all ties from the past as if reborn. If Elder Hui, Black Emperor, or Liu Shengxuan had the chance to exchange these two great opportunities with Senior Brother, they would willingly give up everything for it."
"It’s a pity, we don’t have such an opportunity. Great opportunities require not only the accumulation of a thousand, or even tens of thousands of years but also depend on luck, only with prior accumulation can one seize it when it arrives."
"Like this ti, the three of us may be eyewitnesses, having seen how Senior Brother rose from a desperate situation, two great opportunities landing in succession, ensuring at least a future as a Half-step Daluo. But can we seize such opportunities? Even if they are right before us—"
At this point, Zhuang Bufei glanced helplessly at Wang Wu. They both knew Wang Wu played a crucial role in this, but alas, missed is missed.
"Don’t look at . If I could replicate such opportunities, wouldn’t I go for reincarnation myself?"
"Haha, sir, I’m rely complaining. At least our path is not as profound as Senior Brother’s Vast Energy, so take it as a blessing and advice from the three of us to you. If there’s no survival pressure or threat to life, slow down your cultivation, change your na, alter your appearance, and go on a journey."
"Reflect thoroughly and summarize which direction your future path truly intends to take?"
"By the way, this is the travel journal I wrote when I was a Tier Nine Earth Immortal, please accept it, sir, with a smile."
"And also mine."
"I have one too. Additionally, this is the travel journal transcribed by Senior Brother in the past two days, which we three have sorted out. Sir, take it as a reference."
"The Cultivation Realm is huge and ancient; in fact, even with our four travels combined, we haven’t covered the entire Cultivation Realm, why not give it a try, sir?"
"As for the Frost Domain here, there’s no need to worry. The Frost Domain has a large family business, and even if it temporarily contracts down to just Cyan Frost City, the sky won’t fall."
"We guess our master will exit seclusion within ten thousand years at the latest, and Senior Brother only needs three thousand years to advance to Taiyi again, restoring his previous strength in nine thousand years, so the future is promising. We look forward to you returning to the Frost Domain then."
During the conversation, Zhuang Bufei and the other two handed over four Jade Scrolls, then each saluted Wang Wu before departing.
Leaving only Wang Wu, staring thoughtfully at the small village below the mountain.
A mont later, he appeared on an ordinary barren mountain, where a group of Pig Little Demons were diligently cultivating at the foot, engaged in fights.
At the mountaintop, several Madam Pigs were wiping tears; the big fat pig, almost as tall as ten floors, was finally reaching the end of its lifespan.
Its brother, Niu Huanxi, was drinking and eating heartily in the distance, happily playing drinking gas with several other elderly demons and monsters, as carefree as can be.
In the hut, Xiong Shiliu and Yuan Bupu were playing chess. Wolf Bu’er hadn’t co, having passed away last year; one of its sons ca, resembling Five Poison to almost ninety percent...
Ah, what a ss, but those are past grudges and grievances of the previous generation.
In any case, the old demons and so elderly human friends who escaped from the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower and had connections were here.
Everyone was waiting for the Little Wild Boar to breathe its last.
They had been waiting from sunrise to sunset, quite tireso.
After Wang Wu reached the mountain, Madam Yu and General Xuelang also ca to greet him, accompanied by the now white-haired Ah Qing. The little snake from years ago had turned into an old snake, its dragon sinew extracted but saved once by the Frost Monarch, allowing it to live many more years. Although still sharp and energetic, it had clearly entered its final elderly stage, only a matter of two to three hundred years.
"Your servant greets the master!"
Ah Qing saluted ticulously, and Wang Wu let her be.
Then Yuan Bupu, Xiong Shiliu, and Teng Zhongwu ca to pay their respects. The three of them had all just reached Tier Four Earth Immortal, breaching their first limits, in their pri, but much credit was due to the Frost Monarch.
Not only had he arranged them safely in the Inner Domain, but he had also greatly elevated their potential and bottlenecks.
This detailed and careful arrangent was a stark contrast to their previous master, Elder Hui, highlighting his superior ability.
It’s not feared that my beloved ones would be used as weaknesses against , but at least provide them a comparable environnt. Elder Hui managed the Gray Domain, having a similar Inner Domain. By sending these loved ones to the Inner Domain, at least there would be no worry of having their dragon sinews yanked out by the Cyan Dragon Race.
If that had been the case, Wang Wu wouldn’t have had to overturn the table.
"You lot, staying like this isn’t going to work. Handle your affairs and go do business in Cyan Frost City."
"Understood!"
Wang Wu headed further up the mountain, followed by more creatures and demons, as everyone had been expanding their lines for many years.
At the summit, Old Niu gave a hearty smile. It had also forsaken cultivation, having experienced too much, and combined with the grueling nature of cultivation, even with repeated help, it ultimately ended up stuck at First Grade.
Cultivation truly requires imnse perseverance to push through, or perhaps only the young lads cheerfully shout because they are unaware of how arduous it can be.
Belief, those two words, are crucial.
Life requires learning and maintenance, not only for physical strength but also to keep the mind and Divine Soul in a constantly refreshed state, otherwise it easily succumbs to lethargy.
Lethargy is a terrifying state.
Also like a nightmare.
Old Niu declined in cultivation after its sister Niu Xiaocao’s passing, with several concubines and many children and grandchildren dead, his cultivation just plumted.
No longer have that passion.
This is also a tribulation, and it’s the first ordeal among the three extres of Tier Nine Earth Immortals.
Wang Wu did not endure this ordeal because he usually strengthened his resistance and faced more sorrowful and desperate situations while dealing with the Three Calamities, thus his mind beca exceptionally resilient.
Many people, many demons, as they age, as their surroundings change, due to certain events, they get stuck in a dead-end, and then change, becoming unrecognizably strange.
It’s like becoming another person.
The ordinary life of the Mortal World is the most damaging to the cultivation heart.
This is no joke.
Wang Wu thought that if he can outlast all the dear friends and family who escaped from the Great Wilderness Sin Prison Tower with him, without his state of mind changing, then he is qualified.
Any cultivator, or most mortals, believe that physical aging is of the utmost importance.
Yet, unbeknownst to them, ntal aging and deterioration are the most concealed and insoluble.
In one word, decline!
Corresponding to it is the Dao.
Decline and Dao, they are equivalent, concepts of the sa level.
Wang Wu also didn’t understand before and even thought it was too absurd.
When he read history books back ho, he wondered why those great figures, wise and mighty in their youth, would beco like that in their later years.
Those who withstood disasters, faced life and death challenges, and deserved the title of a hero, why would they lose integrity in their later years?
It wasn’t until after he experienced the matter with Lu Tong that his understanding of the Dao deepened, and his understanding of decline also beca clearer.
The simplest example, can you resist not playing on your phone for a day?
Knowing it’s bad, but unable to resist, what does it have to do with your physical health?
What relation does it have to your lifespan?
It’s rely that your spirit has beco accustod to the sensation of falling into decline.
For an ordinary mortal with a fragile body, the power of decline spreading doesn’t even get a chance before turning into a mound of yellow earth.
It’s only feared that a cultivator’s strong body and still-present strength can’t control their soul anymore.
In this regard, Old Pig and Old Niu seem to have understood even earlier than Wang Wu.
Old Pig had already beco lax in cultivation while still in the South Wilderness, thus he now seeks a natural death.
Leading a plain life, yet with no regrets, being true to himself and to what lies behind him.
Old Niu had seen through it long ago.
If one can’t walk further on the cultivation path, just don’t, it’s no big deal.
Better not let oneself beco unrecognizable due to decline, only to be scolded as disrespectful and indestructible in old age.
Why suffer that?
"Wang Lianhua, you ca?"
Old Pig suddenly sat up, as if rejuvenated, his small eyes quite bright.
"I’m going ahead first. Didn’t disgrace our Three Heroes of the Western Wilderness, right? Haha, I can feel decay growing, so this slly body, just burn it..."
Old Pig lay back down, as if asleep, very peacefully.
Wang Wu, with a group of old comrades, paid respects three tis, then waved his hand, raising a Level 7 Creation Spirit Fire, which incinerated Old Pig to ashes.
There was no need even to eat at the morial table, so he smiled and said to everyone, "I recently received a teaching from an Immortal who spoke of the Great Dao repairing the Heaven, the Middle Dao repairing the power, and the Lesser Dao nding the body."
"I feel that the Great Dao is too elusive, even the Middle Dao is tough, but the Lesser Dao is comparatively more worthwhile. The Lesser Dao transforms from one’s own beliefs, and beliefs are within reach, obtained by mindful contemplation. You all should think about it, reflect on the past, consider the present, and ponder the future."
"It’s okay, you can also tour the Mortal World, learn more knowledge, even the tiniest ants have their shining points. Don’t think mortals are valueless. That’s all I have to say, you all should ponder well. Now, as your old friend, I will bestow upon you another fortune."
Wang Wu walked past them with a smile, patting their shoulders. For those in better conditions, he conveniently set up a Foundation Establishnt Array for them.
For those in less favorable conditions, he repaired so hidden injuries on their demon pills or spirit pills.
Everyone received sothing.
However, Madam Yu, General Xuelang, Xiong Shiliu, Yuan Bupu, and Teng Zhongwu were exceptions; they could have a second Foundation Establishnt Array set up.
Wang Wu wasn’t stingy, using three days to set it up for them. Basic versions were sufficient, no need to be extravagant.
After completion and while everyone was ditating to comprehend, he quietly departed.
However, he didn’t imdiately start traveling, but found a quiet place to quietly study the contents recorded on the four Jade Scrolls.
