Chapter 118

Reincarnation? I've been in that world too short a time, gathered too little data; hearsay says such a thing exists…… but who knows if it's just people's beautiful longing for the afterlife that they made up, or if it's really real? I don't know!

A trumpet muttered, and then about one-tenth echoed in agreement, 'Exactly! Exactly! Exactly! Our situation now is either die once, or raise our cultivation to some height, only then can we probe.'

The former isn't very realistic; the latter…… needs time, we just need to slightly adjust according to our realm to match the background rules of the universe we're currently in!

The 'Houtu Great Dao Canon' may be a supreme Grand Luo secret canon that circulates universally across all Myriad Heavens and myriad worlds, but haven't we already mastered cultivation? Even though we grasp the theory, linking it to actual adjustment, solving the mutual solution of heaven and earth with my body…… lacks experience, it's hard!" A trumpet muttered, 'Tuba, you too—when you initially split us apart and tossed us into different realms, you were stingy, giving only a pittance of primordial essence...'

A bit of willpower, plus a trifle of primordial energy, with startup funds so low it's almost like starting from scratch…… Even if our realm is high, what good is that? We still have to painstakingly absorb primordial energy to level up and break through; at most, from a lofty perspective there's no bottleneck, and until the Supreme Unity we can use various means to assist acceleration, speeding along the fast lane……

This seemed to trigger resonance; the trumpets' consciousness rose and fell, jointly condemning the extremely stingy tuba.

Furthermore, there were mournful sighs.

'You're still doing okay!' Feng·1024·Xi said resentfully, 'At least the world you smuggled into has a cultivation background, the world's consciousness opened cultivation channels…… I'm the one who's truly miserable!'

'Transmigrating into a technological environment like my previous life, cultivation is a barren desert…… heavenly spiritual energy? Nonexistent!'

'I can't even cultivate!'

As the saying goes, there's an even worse misery within misery.

Feng·1024·Xi's transmigrant life wretchedly forged a new realm, drawing a unanimous laugh from the trumpet group, 'Hahaha…… condolences! Condolences!'

'Hahaha…… you're laughing at a hammer!' Feng·1024·Xi dissatisfied, 'Not a shred of sympathy!'

'Cough cough…… we're not laughing! We're not laughing!' Feng·9·Xi gave a dry cough, 'For your situation, I personally suggest…… you need to be patient, yes, patient!'

'Who knows, maybe someday a spiritual energy revival will come, just like here!'

'Right? With hope in heart, everything looks beautiful……'

'Nonsense!' Feng·1024·Xi snorted coldly, 'Spiritual energy revival? Impossible!'

'I burned the meager primordial energy I brought from transmigration, examining past and present…… this universe fundamentally never had an era of cultivation in a spiritual energy environment!'

'All those myths are nothing but figments of people's imagination!'

'We haven't even had the grand environment, so how can we talk about revival?'

"Having once possessed and then lost it, the process of retrieving the lost pearl can be considered a revival…… I still have some basic skill in language arts!"

"A crowd of trumpets, looking at the weak, pitiable, helpless 1024, all sighed in unison, urging him to let go…… Isn't it just death?"

"Life and death are seen lightly; what's the point of a salted fish struggling?"

"He turned over—does that mean he's no longer a salted fish?"

"\"Get lost! \" Feng 1024 Xi shouted angrily, \"I think I can still rescue myself…… Ah! That supreme, morally exalted tuba! \"

"\"Please have pity on your poor trumpet; support me, support me with the merit of a cure-all! \"

"In the consciousness communication channel, he put on a begging posture, holding a broken bowl, looking wistfully at the tuba."

"Fengxi's mouth twitched; after considering the cost, he seriously decided to give up."

"This trumpet is beyond saving; let him just wait for death!"

"Concerning his life, Feng 1024 Xi's intuition was incredibly sharp, and being originally one, he instantly guessed the tuba's thoughts, shocked: \"I… tuba, you won't be that heartless, will you? \""

"He put on a crying face, snot and tears streaming, \"Don't be like the open multi-birth; the previous number was ruined, we can't let the number master hope the number becomes a dragon, carrying the number master to soar—just give up outright and open a new number! \"

"\"I strongly suggest holding an exam before opening a number…… Don't just open without nurturing! \"

"Fengxi's face darkened; he said nothing, eyes narrowed, pondering whether to invoke authority to directly mute, or even harsher, delete the data."

"However, 1024's next sentence moved him."

"\"As the saying goes, put yourself in another's shoes…… Tuba, you don't even protect your own trumpet; how can you discuss grasping the spiritual realm of empathizing with the benevolent Human King Sacred Emperor's blessing upon all beings? \""

"\"If you can't fully comprehend and wholeheartedly commit, what's there to say about accumulating experience to restrain reincarnation? How will you counter it in the future? \""

"Feng 1024 Xi's will to survive exploded, and he said these words."

"But he had to admit, this made a lot of sense."

"If you don't even take yourself seriously, don't love yourself, how can you love others?"

"\"But……\" Fengxi countered, \"You rely entirely on me for support—doesn't that make you a parasite? \""

"\"Speaking of reason, there's no such method of loving others…… Besides, we're in a tough spot right now! \"

"\"You must be able to create value…… even if it's tiny. \" Fengxi said, \"Give me a reason, an excuse that would make me agree. \"

"Feng 1024 Xi instantly perked up, chattering on, \"Tuba, you've misunderstood! \"

"\"I'm not saying I want to be a parasite, wholly relying on you to support me…… These days, facing the harsh reality, I've already raised my fists of resistance! \"

"\"Striving to comprehend numerous Great Luo scriptures, delving into the fundamental nature of heavenly and earthly principles…… Even if this world's rule system is altered, differing from Honghuang's manifestation, all changes remain true to the origin. \""

"\"I've already found a way to break the deadlock! \"

"\"I'm trying to create a special catalyst that can convert the dark energy in this universe into spiritual energy…… and dark energy accounts for sixty percent of the current world! \" Feng 1024 Xi's state right now is like an employee swindling funds, painting a big pie for the boss: \"Even if I can't achieve that step, converting the planet I'm on is no problem! \"

"\"This planet has a total population of seven point eight billion! \"

"\"As the pioneer and trailblazer of the cultivation system, controlling them in my palm isn't easy? \""

"\"Tuba, you aren't trying to test the reincarnation system and the Sacred Emperor's offensive methods, are you? \" 1024 gestured, \"This here is a prime test field! \"

"\"In this world's myths and legends, there is reincarnation, the underworld, the Heavenly Court, the immortal dynasty, the divine pantheon…… Besides that, there are many writers' imaginative works, deeply beloved. \""

"\"By then I'll plan a myth invasion, a spiritual energy revival, etc., as the ultimate behind-the-scenes mastermind, covering all the schemes you, Tuba, find hard to test in primordial Honghuang. \""

"\"Then I'll march into the cosmos, bring the whole world under my control, break through the yuan-hui calamity, and reach the pinnacle of number life! \" Feng 1024 Xi fantasized, dreaming happily, \"Even then, if you, Tuba, support me once more, let me quietly borrow the Suiyue Changhe to launch a conquest of the Myriad Heavens! \"

"This, the plan is all written!"

"However, Fengxi remained unmoved: \"Since you already have a plan, just go execute it—why do you still come to me for qi fortune? \""

"\"Cough cough cough…\" 1024 used coughing to hide embarrassment, \"Well… naturally because I need to develop that catalyst to convert spiritual energy; at the current speed, it'll probably take two or three hundred thousand years. \""

"\"Even if I could achieve immortality through technology…… by then the yellow flowers would be cold. \""

"Fengxi was speechless."

"The trumpet stubbornly defended itself, \"Making a million from zero is the hardest…… but going from one million to two million is comparatively easy. \""

"\"Tuba, you just need to help me get through this hardest period…… Afterwards you can reap many valuable experiences! \" He declared earnestly, \"Not only do we have how to distort a world's law manifestation, but also how to be a better behind-the-scenes mastermind, etc. \"

"Moreover, the crucial point is, compared to those flashy cheap trash Trumpets, my zero-start demon-less world has no one blocking the way ahead!" 1024 spoke confidently, "They still have to face the already accomplished blocking forces; wanting to be Heavenly Emperor? Wanting to be Saint Emperor? Without first piling up corpses, how could it work!"

"Cultivation is the ultimate violence, all life and death, giving and taking, at the heart's will...... Those sects in cultivation worlds, if they don't mind their appearance, recklessly whip myriad spirits; as a Saint Emperor, could they not destroy such forces?"

"Too many, too many universes, the strong and weak are clearly opposed; the strong slaughter the weak at will, sometimes even without reason...... Only our Honghuang primordial world, having the Way of Fortune, a special collective Great Dao, can barely resolve some contradictions."

"Because Fortune brings benefits to the strong at the peak, it also leads those at the highest level to spontaneously protect the weak beings that can generate Fortune."

"Although said, this protection has some moisture; psychologically they may still be high and mighty, utterly despising."

"In actual treatment, it's just like cutting leeks and shearing wool."

"But no matter how you say it, to cut leeks and shear wool...... the precondition is to let the leeks grow and let the sheep survive."

"Moreover, far-sighted great powers all know: to make leeks produce more, to make wool produce more, one must expand the leek field's territory, or else increase the number of sheep."

"They will fertilize, water, and drive away wolves that steal sheep."

"They need an orderly management institution for better development."

"Therefore, in the Honghuang world, almost every era has such a supreme Heavenly Court...... This is the consistent demand of peak great powers; this is the trend!"

"What are the duties of the Heavenly Court?"

"Naturally, it is to establish the four seasons, harmonize yin and yang...... Essentially, it is to provide a good environment so that leeks grow quickly and sheep multiply, ready for harvest!"

"Because of Fortune, there is the Heavenly Court."

"Even if it is knocked down at times, the next era will still bounce back."

"Perhaps the great powers who control such an institution as the Heavenly Court may not harbor a loving-heart for all beings...... but it is undeniable that the mere existence of the Heavenly Court equals a partial manifestation of the benevolent governance and virtue of a supreme human Dao Saint Emperor!"

"Even the Monster Clan Heavenly Court is the same!"

"Although the Demon Race has many internal problems, ethnic hunting relations are tangled...... but as long as the Monster Clan Heavenly Court exists for a day, the Demon Race's total quantity is on the rise!"

"It's just a bit slow, a bit winding, that's all."

"The Way of Fortune truly connects the heavenly will of those at the topmost layer with the myriad races' beings at the bottommost layer."

"When each side has a need, they will actively maintain the relationship."

"Unfortunately, this also takes place only in the primordial Honghuang."

"In other worlds, although Fortune exists, few beings grasp it, causing the Way of Fortune to gather dust, drawing a heavenly chasm between the strong and weak."

"And this heavenly chasm has become, today, a blocking tiger for Fengxi's Trumpets...... If not moved aside, how can one become Heavenly Emperor? How become Saint Emperor?"

"Feng·1024·Xi may be suspected of swindling funds, but what he says on this matter is not false."

"\"So, Tuba, you invest in me, that's the only correct choice! \" He patted his chest, \"Once I become strong, self-sufficient and even earn extra Fortune, I will then drive those pitiful, weak, and unlucky compatriots to become strong as well. \"

"\"Let's co-write the masterpiece—《I Am the Saint Emperor in the Myriad Heavens》! \""

"Fengxi, who had been listening all along, felt his heart move at this moment."

"He pinched a large-headed coin in his hand, hesitantly opening the Fortune Merit System interface, utilizing the special channel of the Fortune Long River to achieve a \"bank transfer\", remote support."

"It must be said, the system paired with the Fortune Long River is truly a perfect match."

"Ordinary non-Da Luo beings, smuggling resources while traversing the Suiyue Changhe, must inevitably be extorted by this middleman with exorbitant tolls, or rather a per‑catty charge."

"As they kept collecting, the tolls even exceeded the cost."

"But Fortune is different; cross‑industry transfers are fine, and there's no handling fee!"

"This gave Fengxi a different kind of thought."

"\"If I were to deeply understand its operating mechanism, thereby creating a platform...... to recruit beings as travelers, letting them enter different universes and worlds, and issue tasks so they participate in the heaven-man interaction within the world, thereby generating Fortune, which I would harvest...... then, after distributing rewards proportionally, I would transform this all-purpose Fortune into enhancement options...... \""

"\"I don't know if this is feasible or not. \""

"\"If it is feasible, what should this platform be called? \""

"\"Main God Hall? \""

"\"Reincarnation Prison? \""

"\"Miracle Territory? \""

"\"Ultra‑dimensional Dream? \""

"\"Mm...... I am a loyal subordinate of Lord Houtu, and Houtu is famous for reincarnation...... Would Reincarnation Prison sound better? \""

"\"Moreover, if some enforcing Da Luo catches us, we could also pull a bit of Lord Houtu's tiger skin as an excuse? \""

"In his reverie, he completed the deposit operation and was about to execute the transfer."

"A group of Trumpets earnestly advised, \"Tuba, think it over! \""

"\"My mind is made up; no need for more words! \""

"The administrator waved his hand and enacted dictatorship."

"\"Remaining Trumpets, whose game difficulty is simple? I will prioritize choosing...... preferably with reincarnation! \""

"Fengxi took out another large-headed coin."

"This time, it will be split among a hundred people."

"And the remaining over a thousand numbers?"

"They will share one large-headed coin."

"The spark, in this process, was buried."

"——Do nobles and generals have a kind of seed?"

"Down with the dog management, we will rise up!"
