Chapter 4: Reincarnation [II]
“What are you doing inside my body?” Asked the voice of an old man.
Hearing the voice of the old man, Zhang Fei was curiously shocked. He wondered where the voice was coming from. But thinking about what the old man said about the body of the baby being his, Zhang Fei was apprehensive. Could he be dreaming? Secretly, he mumbled in his heart. “Obviously, the voice of a delusional old man. How could my body be his?” He secretly mumbled in his heart before saying. “This is my body, not yours, old man.”
“Yours? I reserved this body for myself, long before the universe thought of creating you. So, this makes it mine, isn’t it, small baby?”
Slowly, his apprehension dissipated. Zhang Fei couldn’t help himself from laughing. “Long ti ago? Well, old man, as you can see, I’m not old like you. So, I’m the rightful owner of my body. Moreso, where are you talking from?”
The old man suddenly sighed. *Oh, this baby doesn’t know anything yet. Since there’s nothing to do for now, this old man will just listen to you!* “I’m right here.”
“Why are you here in my body, old man? Who are you?”
“Who am I? I’ll tell you sothing, child. This old man’s na is so ancient that it has long been forgotten by many. It had been far too long since it was last ntioned. But many call the “Great Divine Taoist”!”
.....
*Great Divine Taoist* Zhang Fei couldn’t help but secretly laughed in his heart. All this had to be hallucinations. Then on the other hand, he thought about the fact if he could find himself in this world, in his current situation, what about the possibility of the old truly existing? Slowly, he said. “How is this even possible? Anyway, just admit that this body is not yours. Still, don’t you think it sounds strange that you forgot your own na?”
Taoist Mo, couldn’t help but scolded. “Huh, this old man is talking to you about sothing serious. How can you make fun of ?”
Zhang Fei suddenly stuck out his tongue using his own imagination. He just needed to think about it, since this old man could see his thoughts. “How many years must have passed for you to forget even your own na?”
“Did I tell you that I forgot my own na? I said ‘since it was last ntioned’. How I wish to beat you to death right now. You know what, child, I know my own na, but I’m not telling you.”
“Oh, okay.” There was a long silence, then Zhang Fei voiced. “I wonder how old you are, great Taoist?”
Taoist Mo pondered for a mont, and suddenly said. “Are you asking for my age? Hmm, well, I can tell you that one. I can’t rember the specific ti, maybe it’s thirty to forty thousand years.”
“What?!” Zhang Fei, suddenly, felt dizzy. Thirty to forty thousand years old? This was too ridiculous to be true. What kind of world was he dreaming of? If soone popped out, casually, after ten thousand years, wouldn’t that make the person immortal?
But Zhang Fei knows that this type of immortality was only possible in fantasy world of cultivation. Immortals and the like ntioned in fantasy novels could live for hundreds of thousands of years! If the person beca a god, then the person could have endless years of existence! Could it be that this old man was also a character of the immortal Tao?
That could only an that he was now in a fantasy world.
“Hehehe, now you know I can beat you to death. Hehehe” Taoist Mo couldn’t stop himself from laughing and said. “Don’t be surprised, little one! I’m afraid there is no second person on this Sacred Spirit continent who could live for twenty thousand years. A spiritual master who can be compared to this old man may not be born yet!”
Zhang Fei couldn’t help thinking about the black line in his mind. Secretly, he thought. *This old man could know what I was thinking about at anyti, I will no longer have any privacy. After a long ti, it would certainly render ntally deranged*
Taoist Mo suddenly laughed and said. “Hahaha! Child, you don’t have to worry too much about that. This old man can sneak into your sea of ??consciousness, and of course will know what you do and think, but you don’t need to worry. My presence in your sea of ??consciousness will not harm you at all.”
Zhang Fei’s mind cald a bit, and he sighed. “If I may ask the Taoist, since your supernatural powers are so vast, why is it that there was no real body for you? Why is it that only your consciousness that you sent into my mind exists? What is the spiritual inheritance you are talking about?”
Taoist Mo suddenly fell into silence after listening! After a long ti, he sighed softly and said, “Oh, this is heavens will. I practiced my martial arts and ditation techniques for thousands of years, and eventually beca a top level cultivator. I could contend with the heavens and the earth. I could have beco a god, but I needed the immortal inheritance. It is a pity, this old man lasted for re thousands of years. I have traveled all over the world, but I couldn’t find the inheritance of the gods.” He sighed before continuing. “Thinking about it now, I believe the matter of becoming a god is illusory. People who have beco gods in ancient tis seed to be archaic legends.”
After Taoist Mo’s narration, Zhang Fei finally understood. It turned out that all the cultivators on the Sacred Spirit Continent were called spiritual masters. And the highest level of the spiritual master was the cultivation base of the ninth-level spiritual immortal. If a cultivator could find the inheritance of the gods, the cultivator could break through to the tenth level and beco a god.
When Taoist Mo cultivated to the late Lingxian stage, he began to search for the inheritance of the gods. It was a pity that he had been unsuccessful for thousands of years! During this period, Taoist Mo cultivation base made a breakthrough, unexpectedly. He condensed his spiritual consciousness.
This was a sign of becoming a god.
Taoist Mo was surprised and happy by this developnt, but he didn’t want to attract the tribulations. How could it be so easy to condense the consciousness and beco a god independently? He had asked himself. A cultivator must go through ten evils and nine hardships before the cultivator could go through the tribulations and beco a god.
As the saying went. It was hard to live, but it was harder to escape. Although Taoist Mo cultivation base was unprecedentedly strong, he couldn’t face what was coming. If he was to experience the ten evils and nine trials, he knew that he would inevitably die when the first nine tribulations co.
So he looked into the insight of heaven, and discovered the secrets of a sacred spirit body for him to beat death. Imdiately, he began searching for a sacred spirit body as his reincarnation body, in order to continue life after his rebirth.
The Litany Of Heavens was worthy of the hardworking people. Just when he was about to undergo the ninth tribulation, he found a sacred spirit’s body. This body was the sa occupied by Zhang Fei.
In fact, before the baby had landed, before Zhang Fei had reincarnated inside the baby, the Taoist Mo already found the sa spiritual body. But at that ti, his tribulation hadn’t ford yet. Taoist Mo could have given up his physical body and send his divine consciousness into the spirit’s body before it was even ford.
However, Taoist Mo was really unwilling to lose his ten thousand years of cultivation in this manner. Therefore, Taoist Mo decided to try his luck, and face the power of these nine divine trials! If he could get through it, then he wouldn’t need the baby’s body anymore. He would also be able to keep his years of cultivation. He thought, perhaps, becoming a god wouldn’t be impossible without the inheritance.
Unfortunately, Taoist Mo underestimated the power of the Nine Divine Trials. Just when he resisted the layers of impact of the Nine Divines, he beca complacent. He did not expect that the last strike of the Nine Divine Tribulations would almost dissipated his soul.
Fortunately for him, Taoist Mo made a quick retreat in advance. Just as his body was shattered by the lightning strikes of the Nine Divine Heavens, his condensed consciousness rushed out, and attached itself to the consciousness of the baby found.
That was when Zhang Fei suddenly felt his mind bumped after being reincarnated. In fact, that was the result of the impact of Taoist Mo divine consciousness into his own mind.
