Chen Moxuan's gaze was sharp as he quickly scanned the images before him, and soon, he recognized the origins of the person in question. This individual hailed from a small faction known as the Witch Cult within the Xian Yuan Holy State.
The Witch Cult? This faction, almost unheard of, now sparked a sense of curiosity in Chen Moxuan. Why would such a minor power have foreseen matters related to Reincarnation and the extraordinary birth of a precious gem?
The infant seemed to possess knowledge beyond its years, speaking human words, clearly indicating some connection to Reincarnation. Although he did not know who exactly was being reincarnated—whether it was a dragon or a tiger—one thing was certain: since this matter had come to his attention, he could not ignore it. Chen Moxuan's treasures were not to be coveted by others!
Unfortunately, after sifting through the memories of this person, he found no additional information. The individual had merely received orders from the Witch Cult Leader to accompany others in search of a Companion Gemstone. It seemed they were aware that this person should not be disturbed until they grew up, at which point the precious gem could be taken.
Chen Moxuan turned his gaze toward the reincarnated individual, his eyes deep with inquiry. "In your past life, did you hold any grudges against the people of Xian Yuan Shengzhou?"
However, the reincarnated one merely blinked with bright eyes. Suddenly, it appeared to fall into a deep slumber, its breathing becoming steady and prolonged, as if it had lost all awareness of the outside world.
He glanced at Tiger Brother, signaling for it to take action. Understanding the cue, Tiger Brother opened its mouth and unleashed a wave of demonic energy.
The reincarnated one jolted awake, eyes wide open and expression refreshed, as if just emerging from a pleasant dream.
Seeing this, Chen Moxuan nodded inwardly and asked again, "Who exactly are you? If you refuse to answer, I may have to resort to soul searching."
Upon hearing this, a hint of helplessness flickered in the reincarnated one's eyes. Pouting slightly, they replied in a childish voice, "You're really something else; you don't even spare children."
Chen Moxuan couldn't help but feel speechless at that remark.
"You've lived countless lifetimes already, Old Demon, so stop calling yourself a child. Quickly tell me, what is your true identity? Why were you born with a precious jade in your mouth?"
Reincarnation. Seeing Chen Moxuan's resolute attitude, he knew that if he didn't come clean, he might truly face a soul search. At that point, he wouldn't even be able to keep the secret of his reincarnation, and perhaps he would end up in a state of scattered souls.
He sighed, his voice carrying a hint of helplessness despite its childish tone. "Fine, fine. I was originally Yunmeng Xianren, and I have reincarnated nine times. In ancient times, I had a great dream in which I foresaw the world ten thousand years later, witnessing the changes in heaven and earth as if something significant was about to happen. To unravel the mystery of this dream, I voluntarily entered the cycle of reincarnation, living through nine lifetimes, each lasting thousands of years, in an attempt to uncover the truth behind that dream."
Upon hearing this, Chen Moxuan furrowed his brow and pondered deeply. The secret techniques from ancient times indeed possessed the ability to seize the transformations of heaven and earth. The fact that Yunmeng Xianren could reincarnate nine times clearly indicated extraordinary means.
"What exactly did you see in your dream? Why are you so obsessed with finding answers through nine lifetimes?" Chen Moxuan asked solemnly. The secret that compelled this person to reincarnate repeatedly without seeking immortality must be significant.
Yunmeng Xianren blinked his bright eyes as if recalling that distant dream. "I dreamt of a Cataclysm where the colors of heaven and earth changed drastically, and all things withered. In this Cataclysm, there is a key figure who will determine the fate of this world. I have reincarnated nine times to find this person and unravel the mystery of my dream; perhaps I can even prevent that Cataclysm from occurring."
Chen Moxuan gazed intently at Yunmeng Xianren, trying to read more information from his youthful face. Those bright eyes revealed wisdom beyond their years but nothing more.
"Why can't you speak about the specifics of the Cataclysm? Could it really trigger an even greater disaster if revealed?" Chen Moxuan asked casually. He knew that it was highly likely the other party would not disclose anything since matters involving heavenly secrets were often profound and unpredictable.
Yunmeng Xianren shook his head, his childish voice tinged with seriousness. "The matter of the Cataclysm concerns the operation of heavenly principles and entangled causes and effects. Once heavenly secrets are leaked, it could not only alter the course of events but also attract unwanted attention, complicating everything further. Moreover, if those forces that should remain dormant awaken prematurely, that would truly be a disaster."
Chen Moxuan listened, pondering for a moment as he weighed the implications in his heart. If Yunmeng Xianren truly spoke the truth, having reincarnated nine times solely to unravel a dream and prevent the Cataclysm, then the story and value behind it were certainly extraordinary. However, if his intentions were nefarious and he concealed his identity as an ancient demon, then keeping him around would undoubtedly be inviting trouble.
"You are unwilling to elaborate, so I shall not press further. You must understand that if you wish to stay by my side, you must abide by my rules," Chen Moxuan's voice turned cold, carrying an undeniable authority.
Just as Chen Moxuan reached an agreement with Yunmeng Xianren to keep him close for observation, a gentle breeze swept by. Suddenly, the melodious voice of Shi Shao Lan Yin echoed in his ear, clear yet distant, like a lark emerging from the valley.
"Chen Moxuan, the demon clan has secretly infiltrated this realm. You must act with utmost caution; do not be careless."
Before the words could fully settle in his mind, that familiar sensation dissipated as if it had been nothing but an illusion. A tightness gripped Chen Moxuan's heart as he hurriedly sought more details, calling out repeatedly. Yet, the voice did not return, leaving him standing alone.
With the matter of Yunmeng Xianren at hand and the chaos caused by the demon clan looming over him, a multitude of challenges converged upon him. Chen Moxuan couldn't help but furrow his brow in frustration.
At that moment, Chen Feng rushed over. Upon seeing the rare sight of Ancestor Chen Moxuan looking dejected, he paused in surprise and slowed his steps.
"What could be troubling Ancestor? Has something difficult arisen?" he wondered inwardly.
Cautiously approaching, Chen Feng asked softly, "Ancestor, what troubles you? I have matters to report; we are preparing to establish a nation soon. What do you think—"
Before he could finish, Tiger Brother impatiently interjected. "Oh dear, Chen Feng! You really have no sense of timing! It's a tumultuous time right now; he's already troubled enough without you adding to it."
Hearing this, Chen Feng's face flushed red with embarrassment as he quickly bowed in apology. "Ancestor, I was inconsiderate; I will—"
However, Chen Moxuan suddenly raised his hand to stop him and sighed deeply. "Enough, enough. Things have already reached a point where they cannot get any worse. Perhaps it's better to let everyone enjoy themselves. Establishing a nation? Very well! Let’s go ahead with it!"
With that declaration, he waved his sleeve and strode away with purpose.
Xiao Bai Long and Tiger Brother were left in a state of shock, while Chen Feng was completely bewildered by what had just happened.
Xiao Bai Long and Tiger Brother exchanged a glance, and it seemed as though an idea had formed in their minds. Could it be that Chen Moxuan had also decided to give up?
