Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Chapter 898: Chapter 28: True Rebirth (Part 2)

After a long silence, the avatar that had been secretly collecting secret treasures started to move again.

“First, I need to find a soul, which is quite simple… After all, as long as they are strong in the spiritual cultivation system, they will condense a soul, but the most important thing isn’t the soul but the reincarnation vessel.”

Wang Sheng didn’t know if there was reincarnation and rebirth under this starry sky.

But regardless, new births occur every moment.

These newborns may not be able to condense a soul after death, but not condensing doesn’t mean non-existence.

If there were no reincarnation, then how were these souls born?

If he sent a soul for reincarnation, would it be two souls competing for a body, or would that body never develop a soul?

He was very interested in these matters.

The original plan was to explore after reaching the twelfth realm, but now because of the existence of the River of Souls, he decided to advance this task.

He wanted to see if with his current power, he could understand the essence of how life creates a soul.

The genesis of life is the simplest yet the most complex thing.

If he could grasp it, his ambition to create reincarnation would no longer be mere ambition, but actually attainable.

“Find a soul first, the target… let’s use the Reincarnation Saint Emperor for the experiment. After all, he has already cultivated the True Spirit Method to a certain extent, and his soul bears a trace of indestructibility, resilient to disturbances.”

Wang Sheng initially considered randomly selecting a spiritual body.

However, he suddenly thought of the Reincarnation Saint Emperor.

It’s important to note that the Reincarnation Saint Emperor wasn’t entirely extinguished.

His soul, having cultivated the True Spirit Method, possessed a trace of indestructibility and desired to revive in those who absorbed his power.

This made it suitable for his current experiment, as it wasn’t easy to terminate.

Crucially, he had originally marked the three Qing Xiao Saints for observation, allowing him to locate them at any time.

Very soon, he found where the three of them were located.

“Hiding in such a remote place!”

The three gained the Reincarnation Saint Emperor’s power without many knowing, after all, they had entered early.

However, perhaps out of caution, they still chose a remote location not near the Devouring Sect’s area of influence.

For decades, they had been absorbing the power obtained from the Reincarnation Saint Emperor.

But—

“The state isn’t good, I suppose they’ve noticed too, their bodies being invaded.”

Wang Sheng had warned them from the start, but the three of Qing Xiao believed they could manage.

Hence, they ignored it.

Now they’ve faced the consequences.

The Reincarnation Saint Emperor was gradually occupying their bodies, all three at once.

If he succeeded with just one, he could achieve rebirth, starting from the eleventh realm.

The three bodies were beyond their own control, yet they still retained their thoughts.

“What should we do, at this rate, we’ll all completely disappear, and this world will only have the newborn Reincarnation Saint Emperor thereafter.”

“It was a trap from the start, the things we obtained were left by the Reincarnation Saint Emperor, venturing into the Rebirth Secret Realm would surely trigger the backhand within and receive power inheritance, it was bait from the beginning.” The Qing Xiao Saint was also regretful.

Now they understood.

The Reincarnation Saint Emperor left multiple legacies, but these legacies were disguised under other strong beings’ names, simply obtaining one legacy and heading to the Rebirth Secret Realm meant falling completely into the trap.

Many obtained such legacies, though evidently only they ventured into the Rebirth Secret Realm.

Now, they paid for that decision.

Being Eleventh Realm Saints, having experienced so much, yet ultimately unable to resist the temptation of the Twelfth Realm.

“Must we just wait for death?”

Qing Xiao felt despair.

Currently, there was no way for them to break the stalemate.

But at this moment, a voice both familiar and fearsome to him emerged: “I warned you, it seems you didn’t listen!”

They saw the newcomer.

Initially, they didn’t believe Wang Sheng’s words, but now they realized Wang Sheng was far beyond just an Eleventh Realm powerhouse.

Qing Xiao tried controlling himself, seizing a bit of autonomy.

“Mr. Wang, please save us, we are willing to serve as oxen and horses.”

They wanted to break into the Twelfth Realm, but even more wanted to survive, and upon seeing Wang Sheng who had once warned them, they wouldn’t miss the chance.

If not for a lack of complete bodily control, Qing Xiao would have knelt down already.

“No need for servitude, saving you is possible, but I need your help with tasks,”

Gathering various treasures required numerous hands, and these three were perfectly employable.

Three Eleventh Realm worthies could accomplish a great deal.

“We are willing, so long as Mr. Wang is willing to save us.”

Qing Xiao agreed without hesitation.

Compared to losing their lives, everything else is insignificant.

“Remember your words.”

Retrieving the Reincarnation Saint Emperor’s soul was his intention all along, yet acquiring a few subordinates was indeed a pleasant surprise.

He wasn’t afraid of betrayal from them.

Life-saving causation existed; not to mention they were Eleventh Realm, even at the Twelfth Realm, he could apply such causation to curse kill without depleting much of his life span.

Life-saving causation is monumental.

If you haven’t mastered the path of causality, that’s fine, but if you were saved by a master of causality like Wang Sheng and refused to fulfill your promise, the consequences would not be good.

With that thought, Wang Sheng set into action.

Previously, he might not easily locate the Reincarnation Saint Emperor’s soul.

But with the appearance of the River of Souls, souls had no place to hide from him.

“The soul splits into three locations, as long as one succeeds it’s considered successful. If all succeed, it’s akin to having three lives; no wonder he’s a powerhouse who created the True Spirit Method.”
