Chapter 266: Establishing Reincarnation

"Roar!"

The red-haired monster let out a roar; it had been blocked.

It had originally wanted to step onto this path extending from the Void, but it was stopped directly by an invisible barrier; no matter how it struck, it could not enter the path by even half a step.

Li Heng walked over slowly and reached out to touch it.

He discovered that he could actually pass through that invisible barrier.

Or rather, this invisible barrier did not exist for him; he could step onto this path at any time, unlike the red-haired monster beside him, which was raging in impotence.

Could it be...

Li Heng pondered slightly, looking at the Reincarnation Talisman Paper in his hand.

Could it be related to this piece of paper?

Although he had no direct evidence, judging from various signs and what Xuan had said before, this Reincarnation Talisman Paper was the key to stepping onto this path.

The problem was that he was a living human; why would he walk a Reincarnation Path?

This path extended from the Endless Unknown Void and faintly exceeded the boundaries of Heaven and Earth; who knew if he could come back once he stepped onto it? The premonition in his heart was also warning him not to continue walking.

At this moment, a plan formed in his mind, and he looked at the red-haired monster beside him.

The red-haired monster was incomparably furious and crazed, striking at the invisible barrier. But even though it was a Heavenly Human Corpse that had gained sentience and possessed infinite strength capable of destroying mountain ranges, it still could not shake the invisible barrier by even half a bit.

"You want to walk on this path, right?"

Li Heng asked.

The red-haired monster was stunned upon hearing this; what was this thing saying again? It could not understand. However, driven by instinct, it nodded as if under a spell.

Li Heng began to smile.

"Then you must help me scout the path."

The red-haired monster still nodded as if under a spell.

It was as if the desire to step onto this path did not come from this newly born intelligence, but from the instinct of this body.

"Good, then I will give you a chance."

Li Heng secretly channeled his cultivation and stuck the Reincarnation Talisman Paper onto the red-haired monster's forehead. The red-haired monster instantly calmed down; the Reincarnation Talisman Paper emitted light that enveloped its entire body, allowing it to step onto this path of the Unknown.

"As my eyes, help me see this path."

Watching the red-haired monster's figure drift further and further away, Li Heng spoke calmly. The Reincarnation Talisman Paper contained his methods and held a wisp of his divided soul, which might serve as one of his backup plans.

He always felt.

This path might become one of the ways to leave Heaven and Earth.

Or it might become a way for others to come to this Heaven and Earth.

Regardless, whether this path was the so-called Abandoned Reincarnation Path or not, this path absolutely hid a heaven-shaking secret; he could not afford to be careless.

The red-haired monster's figure was already faint and distant.

Li Heng turned around, looked at the endless Mist Sea before him, and planned to build an Underworld in this place full of secrets; it could also be considered completing the unfinished business of the Demon Venerable.

If the Demon Venerable knew about this in the afterlife, he would surely thank him.

Just as he was preparing to go all out and transform this place.

He suddenly sensed that his connection with the divided soul within the Reincarnation Talisman Paper was growing weaker, as if it were about to leave this Heaven and Earth. However, this was also within his expectations; he activated the Source Power positioning mode.

At this moment, his connection with the divided soul returned.

But he could also clearly feel that the divided soul had completely left this Heaven and Earth, left this quagmire already polluted by secret powers... and then saw more pollution.

Li Heng sighed.

It truly deserves to be called Void Is All Dark.

He separated a wisp of his mind to monitor the movements on the red-haired monster's side at all times, looked at the endless fog before him, and with a wave of his hand, as Source Power burned, Heaven and Earth all moved!

What is an Underworld? Is it a place? No!

The Underworld represents Life and Death Reincarnation, a concept.

Therefore, even if you choose the best location and the Yin energy is as dense as can be, attracting many Weirds and souls to go there, it can only be counted as a gathering place for souls.

This is far from being called Reincarnation!

And this Heaven and Earth has no Reincarnation.

It lacks the laws and Heaven and Earth Principles that represent Reincarnation.

Therefore, to establish Reincarnation, one must make Heaven and Earth generate the concept of Reincarnation, generate new fundamental laws, so that after living beings die, their souls can leave their bodies and gather toward the Underworld involuntarily.

And then be reincarnated through the power of Reincarnation.

This point cannot be achieved by Li Heng's own current power.

Or rather, even Heavenly Human powerhouses cannot do it; in a sense, the Demon Venerable's so-called establishment of Reincarnation was destined to fail.

Because Heaven acts with constancy, and rules are eternally fixed.

Unless your power is strong enough to suppress all the rules of Heaven and Earth, how could you add a new order of Reincarnation? If you dare to add it, Heaven will dare to strike you down, and other rules will also launch a backlash.

But Li Heng is different.

He has the Visualization Divine Ability and Source Power; as long as the Source Power is sufficient, he can completely forge a Reincarnation, and as long as he is willing to consume Source Power, he can completely generate a Reincarnation order for Heaven and Earth.

Of course.

The Source Power consumed by the establishment of the Reincarnation Underworld is definitely an astronomical figure; with his Source Power, it is definitely far from enough to create an Underworld from scratch. But fortunately, he previously made a deal with Heaven.

He can let it help modify the Heaven and Earth Principles, leaving a position for the rules and order of Reincarnation so it won't be struck by lightning and won't be backlashed by other rules of Heaven and Earth.

But this is still far from enough.

Unless he consumes Source Power, with his current understanding of rules, it is absolutely impossible for him to create an Underworld concerning Life and Death Reincarnation; at most, he could only create a prototype of an Underworld, a small Underworld.

He had originally planned to do just that.

With insufficient Source Power, he could not achieve it in one step.

But the Demon Venerable was a kind-hearted person, and he gifted the Reincarnation Disk to him.

With the Reincarnation Disk as a guide and foundation.

Everything became much simpler.

He used Source Power to begin reversing time, tracing the Reincarnation Disk back to its peak period. The incomplete and severely damaged Reincarnation Disk already consumed one hundred thousand Source Power; a Reincarnation Disk in its prime would only be more powerful, and it would very likely exceed this Heaven and Earth.

If he could successfully intercept a fragment of the Reincarnation Disk's peak might, he could use that as a guide to create a Reincarnation that could cover the entire Heaven and Earth.

Source Power was consumed rapidly, and time began to trace backward.

One year, ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years, ten thousand years...

Fragments of the Reincarnation Disk's past time continuously emerged, flickered, and jumped before Li Heng's eyes. The Reincarnation Disk manifested within these fragments was still incomplete, yet it was more powerful than the current Reincarnation Disk.

Now, it has been traced back fifty thousand years.

In this historical fragment of the past fifty thousand years, the Reincarnation Disk was not held by anyone, but drifted in the vast Void, flying aimlessly with the Void Turbulence.

It was like trash floating on ocean currents.

However, Li Heng could feel that the aura of the Reincarnation Disk during this time period was far more powerful than a Heavenly Human. If he used the strength of the Reincarnation Disk from this time period as a guide and intercepted it, he might be able to create a Reincarnation that covered the entire Great Li.

But he was still not satisfied.

The Source Power was still sufficient, so he could continue tracing further back.

Soon, as the historical fragments continued to jump, Li Heng had traced back to a Node one hundred thousand years ago. At this time, the Reincarnation Disk was no longer in the vast Void, but in a vast World.

A great World where divine humans chased the stars and the moon.

The Reincarnation Disk appeared in this Heaven and Earth, blooming with immeasurable light. With no one presiding over it, it manifested its divine might on its own, forcibly inserting itself into a position within this vast World and self-deriving Reincarnation.

At this moment, the might of the Reincarnation Disk suppressed Heaven and Earth!

Li Heng felt a slight joy in his heart; it seemed the origin of this Reincarnation Disk was truly grand. Moreover, he could see that the Reincarnation Disk at this time was also incomplete, missing four of its six corners.

That is to say, the Reincarnation Disk at that time only had two corners!

Yet even so, it could still suppress the great Heaven and Earth.

It is hard to imagine how powerful its might would be if this Reincarnation Disk were complete and undamaged. Could it really be a part of the Ten Thousand Worlds Great Reincarnation?

At this moment, he did not trace any further back.

Because the Source Power was almost exhausted at this time.

If he traced back any further, he would have no Source Power left to intercept the historical fragment and subsequently create the Underworld. In fact, the Reincarnation Disk at this time period was a bit too strong, and he still had to adjust it back.

Otherwise, the remaining Source Power would not be enough to intercept such a powerful fragment.

Just as he wanted to do so.

An anomaly occurred in this great World.

A murmur sounded—meaningless, chaotic, and insane—drifting from who knows where, suddenly descending upon this great World, and the entire world began to deform.

Those divine humans who chased mountains and the moon instantly turned into monsters.

In an instant, the entire world fell.

Even the Reincarnation Disk, which suppressed Heaven and Earth and trampled the world's will underfoot, heard this murmur. Its immeasurable light flickered incessantly, and one of its corners—a part of it—fell off, causing it to erupt with supreme might and break away from this Heaven and Earth, like a brave man cutting off his own arm to survive.

Li Heng frowned.

This was very similar to the murmur he had heard before.

But it was far more terrifying than what he had heard previously.

However, at this moment, he was using Source Power to trace historical fragments; under the protection of Source Power, this murmur could not threaten him in the current time period as it had before.

At this moment, the Reincarnation Disk was missing a corner and fled into the vast Void, seemingly in flight.

Li Heng sighed.

He had thought it was a king, but it turned out to be a noob.

Of course, he did not underestimate this Reincarnation Disk; even if it only had one corner left, only one part left, its aura and might could still reach the upper limit of the Heaven and Earth he was in.

It was the time period most suitable for him to open up Reincarnation without worrying about it bursting the Heaven and Earth or causing the Heaven and Earth to resist.

With a thought, Source Power was consumed crazily, successfully intercepting the historical fragment from this point in time, and then turning it from virtual to real, injecting it into the incomplete Reincarnation Disk he held.

"Then now, Reincarnation, be established."

Li Heng said with a calm, unruffled heart.

The Present World, outside the Zhuzhu Dynasty.

That dim, dark, chaotic, and ignorant place.

That voice sounded once again.

"Hidden Dragon and Hua Yueying are both dead. It seems the practitioner of the Great Sun Path we are looking for is in Beijun of Great Li. Others, stop searching aimlessly and go there."

"Everyone gather, strike with full force, and suppress him to death!"

The voice crossed ten thousand miles of territory, resounding in the ears of many people.

Boom—!

At this moment, in the entire Present World, wind and clouds changed above the Nine Heavens.

At this moment, the Heaven and Earth Principles shook, alarming all the Heavenly Human powerhouses who were in seclusion or deep silence. They were terrified in their hearts, discovering that a new order had been added between Heaven and Earth.

Reincarnation!
