Chapter 673: Great Dream Reincarnation, Dreaming into a Butterfly

Creating a system is a difficult process; without rich experience and history, as well as an understanding of the Dao and the Law, it is hard to succeed.

Especially for someone like Xiao Shi, who is only around twenty years old and still a young lad.

Both his experience and history are extremely shallow.

In the original Script of fate, Xiao Shi also died several times, then dreamed back to the Immortal Ancient, practicing through ten lifetimes of reincarnation, only then opening the path to creating a system.

To let a twenty-year-old youth create a system is no different from a fantasy; it is simply impossible.

Anlan knows Xiao Shi wants to create a system prematurely and cannot help but advise him, as this is no easy task.

Once he fails, his Dao heart may collapse, he may be backlashed by the Great Dao, and it is not impossible for his Primordial Spirit to be destroyed.

Think of those giants in the Immortal Domain, those existences who have lived for millions of years; which of them does not want to create a new system, yet in the end, none have reached any conclusion.

Xiao Shi's personality is stubborn; once he decides to do something, ten cows could not pull him back.

Anlan's advice was also of no use!

Xiao Shi is indeed lacking in his understanding of the Dao, but every day he is by the side of Xuanzang and Sanqing, hearing them expound on the Dao—there, Golden Lotus bloom from the ground, and he is surrounded by the understanding of the Great Dao all day long; are his vision and comprehension not growing rapidly?

Although the Honghuang world is cruel and filled with strife everywhere, the conditions for cultivation are extremely superior; even a pig, as long as it does not die young, can become an immortal if it lives for a few thousand years.

However, to open up a system is still lacking quite a bit; it is not that easy, is it?

Through the Looking at Qi divine ability, Taiqing discovered that Xiao Shi's destiny is extraordinary, that he is a person with Great Luck, and that his origins are in Chaos, unlike the people of Honghuang.

As for Taiqing, although he does not know where Xuanzang and the others come from, he can guess a little.

And in order to repay Xuanzang's Karma, Taiqing decided to grant him a favor.

"Fellow Daoist Xuanzang, I have a divine ability called Dream Dao Reincarnation, Dreaming into a Butterfly. It allows one to reincarnate through thousands and tens of thousands of lifetimes in a dream, experiencing the changes of the Great Thousand worlds. This young friend Shi is still young; without sufficient foundation, it is hard to succeed in opening up a new cultivation system," Taiqing said.

"Dream Dao Reincarnation, Dreaming into a Butterfly," Xuanzang said, lost in thought.

"Yes, a thousand lifetimes of reincarnation in a dream is but three days in the present," Taiqing said.

Xuanzang looked at Xiao Shi, who was listening to the side, and said:

"Xiao Shi, you decide."

Shi Hao thought about it for a moment; this was definitely a great opportunity, rare and hard to come by, so he said without hesitation:

"Brother Xuanzang, Brother Taiqing, I am willing to try."

"Good," Xuanzang smiled.

Taiqing warned, "This divine ability contains the Reincarnation Law and the Dream Law. When you enter it, you will forget who you are, forget your past and present lives, until you can break through this divine ability and awaken your true self.

But that moment is also the most difficult, because the memories of thousands upon thousands of lifetimes will surge into your body in an instant; if you can withstand it, you can emerge from the cocoon as a butterfly, but if you fail, your Primordial Spirit will be damaged."

"I am not afraid," Shi Hao said firmly.

"That is excellent!"

Taiqing showed a hint of appreciation, then flicked his finger, and a mysterious light entered Xiao Shi's brow.

Xiao Shi's whole body emitted a white light, looking unreal and filled with afterimages, while a golden butterfly slowly flew out from the center of his brow, merging into the Void and opening the Great Dream Reincarnation.

At this moment, a slight ripple stirred in the space-time of the heavens and myriad worlds, and one could see a golden butterfly flapping its wings, flying past millions of time and space without stopping.

The first life of reincarnation.

Xiao Shi reincarnated into a world where Martial Dao flourished, becoming the son of a city lord, and was born with a Martial Dao Holy Fetus, a one-in-a-million Martial Dao prodigy.

Unfortunately, on the day of his grand wedding, he was backstabbed by his childhood sweetheart, who dug out his Martial Dao Holy Fetus and broke all the bones and Tendons in his body, causing him to die in unwillingness.

The second life.

Xiao Shi was reborn, arriving in a great age where dynasties stood side by side; although he was a mortal, he became the ruler of a country, but unfortunately, he was drugged by his son and became a vegetable, living his life in depression.

The third life.

Xiao Shi arrived in an Immortal Cultivation world, becoming a Sect disciple with innate spiritual roots, and was taken as a personal disciple by an Elder, with a bright future ahead.

Unfortunately, the Sect Elder's lifespan was about to end, and in order to survive, he directly possessed Xiao Shi.

The fourth life.

Xiao Shi transmigrated into a beggar; his life had no waves, the days were difficult, but he lived to a natural end.

The fifth life.

Xiao Shi transmigrated into a Demon Beast; although he had some cultivation, he was eventually caught by a cultivator who dug out his demon core.

In the outside world, although this is Xiao Shi's Great Dream Reincarnation, the divine ability belongs to Taiqing, so Taiqing can perceive those worlds of reincarnation, and likewise, Xuanzang can also see Xiao Shi's reincarnation?

Taiqing and Xuanzang looked at each other.

Taiqing spoke first: "Fellow Daoist Xuanzang, I must say first that the worlds of reincarnation are born randomly and have nothing to do with me."

Xuanzang said calmly: "Fellow Daoist Taiqing, I do not blame you; I am merely sighing."

"However, through this divine ability, I seem to have discovered that in the current Honghuang world, the Human Race has not yet been born," Taiqing said.

The Great Dream Reincarnation is his divine ability, but the effect varies from person to person.

It is not that everyone who uses this divine ability will experience endless worlds like Xiao Shi.

For Taiqing, this divine ability allows him to fall into deep comprehension and travel through the Void.

Because Taiqing's realm is too high, it is naturally impossible for him to reincarnate continuously like Xiao Shi, unless Taiqing enters voluntarily.

"The birth of the Human Race is only a matter of time," Xuanzang said.

"Is that so? Fellow Daoist Xuanzang seems to know many things," Taiqing said.

"Do you want to know, Fellow Daoist Taiqing? If you wish, I can tell you," Xuanzang said.

Taiqing was stunned, then shook his head and said: "Forget it."

He originally follows the Way of Non-Action; non-action does not mean doing nothing, but rather acting in accordance with the trend, acting through non-action.

He can deduce future events; there might be deviations, but the great trend of heaven and earth values Karma, and even as Innate gods, they do not want to be entangled in Karma.

Once Xuanzang speaks of certain heavenly secrets, the invisible Karma will instantly increase, and the future will become full of the unknowable.

"Haha, since that is the case, let us continue to taste tea and discuss the Tao," Xuanzang said.

It was rare to be with the Sanqing before they became Saints; if he did not probe their true strength now, there would be few opportunities once they attained sainthood.

Moreover, as time passed, given Taiqing's nature, he would gradually become as layered as a thousand-layer cake, making him fundamentally difficult to see through.

"Very well."

Taiqing did not refuse; his curiosity about Xuanzang was no less than Xuanzang's curiosity about him, and naturally, he also wanted to probe the bottom of Xuanzang's depths.

Outside the Sanqing cave dwelling.

Qing'er and Tongtian were also discussing the Tao, though they were comparing swordsmanship, so as not to cause damage to Kunlun Mountain.

The two of them discussed Sword Dao orally, breaking moves with moves, and breaking Tao with Tao!

The final result was a draw, and Tongtian was still not satisfied; it was rare to have a creature with such superb Sword Dao, and not to debate for millions of years would be a disrespect to the Sword Dao.

Unfortunately, Qing'er was not about to indulge Tongtian; she still needed to cultivate and continue to have sudden enlightenment on the Sword Dao.

How could she spend all day long engaging in verbal sparring with this young man, Tongtian.

Among the Sanqing, the most leisurely one was Yuanshi; most of the methods he cultivated were Pangu's inheritance, unlike Taiqing and Shangqing who had their own hobbies, while his hobby was fishing at the spirit pond on Kunlun Mountain every day, and occasionally enlightening some creatures when he was in a good mood.

Counting them all, the most leisurely one now was An Lao Liu.

The Demon Venerable did not speak much to begin with, and had been cultivating and refining the Demon Ancestor Essence Blood, wanting to truly enter the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Originally, with Shi Hao there, he could still chat with Shi Hao, but now that Shi Hao was in the Great Dream Reincarnation, he did not even have anyone to talk to.

Finally, Anlan cast his gaze upon Yuanshi.

Yuanshi was fishing, and he was watching from the side?

Because Anlan was also a guest of Kunlun Mountain, Yuanshi did not say anything about Anlan's actions and just let him watch.

After all, as an Innate Sacred, every movement contained rich Dao rhyme; just watching the fishing, Anlan felt a rhythm of sudden enlightenment, wishing he could immediately break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

Unfortunately, if he were to break through in this space-time, his Dao would very likely be assimilated by the Honghuang Dao, and if his Primordial Spirit revealed a flaw, he might just dissolve into the Dao and lose his self.

Through this back and forth, Anlan gained some favor with Yuanshi.

Yuanshi did not keep a cold face the whole time either, but said: "Anlan, you creature are quite interesting. Looking at your cultivation, you are also on the verge of a breakthrough; why not continue to break through and enter a higher level?"

Anlan was startled, not expecting Yuanshi to take the initiative to speak, so he said:

"The path I cultivate is contrary to this world; once I break through, I fear I will be backlashed by the Heavenly Dao laws."

"So that is how it is. Although I cannot tell where your origins lie, the aura on you indeed does not resemble the Heavenly Dao of this world.

However, all paths lead to the same destination, and there is always a glimmer of survival.

I observe that there are law fluctuations within your body; I wonder which law it is?" Yuanshi said.

"The Curse Law; I have also only just comprehended it recently," Anlan replied.

"The Curse Law is also one of the Three Thousand Great Daos. Since you cannot break through your realm, why not cultivate the Law Path? I observe that your law does not conflict with this world," Yuanshi said.

As the words fell, Anlan suddenly realized, as if he had been enlightened.

That was right, how could he have forgotten this; why not contemplate the laws.

His Curse Law was not the Curse Law contemplated by those Quasi-Immortal Emperors of the same rank; it was simply not on the same level.

This Curse Law was one of the Three Thousand Great Dao laws he had realized by cultivating the Nail-Head Seven-Arrow Book combined with the Nail-Head Seven-Arrow Book artifact.

The Nail-Head Seven-Arrow Book was one of the Tiangang Thirty-Six Transformations.

In a sense, this could also be considered one of the source Curse Laws, conforming to the Heavenly Dao.

"Many thanks to True Person Yuqing for the guidance."

Anlan hurriedly thanked him, his eyes bright, as if he had found the path forward.

Yuanshi, on the other hand, held his chin high while fishing, looking quite proud.

"It is rumored that Yuanshi in Honghuang is a Saint, but is extremely arrogant and conceited, looking down on creatures of other bloodlines; it seems that is not the case."

Anlan thought to himself; having been in the Chat Group for so long, he was already well-versed in all the Journey to the West, mythology, and Honghuang stories.

However, it was also because of this foresight that it had created a stereotypical impression.

For example, Taiqing was an old man, Tongtian was a hot-headed middle-aged man, Yuanshi was shameless and did not follow martial virtue...

Anlan found a blue stone by the spirit pond, sat cross-legged, and contemplated the Curse Law.

Sure enough, when he practiced the Curse Law, there was no feeling of dissolving into the Dao, and his strength improved invisibly!

Under the sunset, Yuanshi fished silently, Anlan cultivated, and the afterglow fell upon them, inadvertently forming a beautiful picture scroll.

Chat Group.

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "I am so envious my scalp is tingling, I am falling apart!"

Ye Fan's eyes turned red; if he had known, he would have gone to Honghuang too.

In such a short time, Shi Laoliu's physical body had already reached the Human Dao Supreme domain, and now he had been gifted the opportunity of the Great Dream Reincarnation by Taiqing; wouldn't he just take off directly after waking up?

Exploding Heavens Faction Leader: "Stop being envious; what is destined to be yours will come, do not force what is not."

Demon Queen: "Exactly! There is no regret medicine in this world."

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Is it still too late to go to Honghuang now?"

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Ahem, come if you want, Ye Laoliu; if you get eaten, we won't save you."

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "So, does love really disappear, Xuan Ge?"

Number One Golden Core of Kyushu: "Still talking about love, I'll give you a kick."

Playboy: "Sigh, everyone is taking off. Only I remain a plain and simple mortal."

Thanos of Titan: "Hehe, Tony, do not be envious; you compare to gods with a mortal body."

Playboy: "Get lost, Master Thanos."

Thanos of Titan: "......"

Exploding Heavens Faction Leader: "Speaking of which, Xuan Ge, can we see Shi Laoliu's reincarnation?"

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Yeah, I also want to know how this guy reincarnated."

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Are you sure you want to see? Those reincarnations are very miserable because they lost their memories. He might have reincarnated several lifetimes in just a hundred years?"

Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "??"

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "That makes me want to see it even more."

Immortal King Anlan: "Xuan Ge, I want to see it too."

Anlan, who was cultivating, was multitasking, wanting to witness the Great Dream Reincarnation.

Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "Indeed, it is better to share the joy with others than to enjoy it alone."

Spring and Autumn Sword Deity: "Same here!"

Old Demon King Who Never Suffers a Setback: "Eating melon!"

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Fine, I will select a few lifetimes he has already experienced."

After saying this, Xuanzang manifested the worlds where Xiao Shi had already reincarnated; everyone looked over one after another, and after a few minutes, they all fell silent.

Miserable, too miserable!

In just a few short lifetimes, he experienced all the suffering of the world and the malice of Renjian; was there not a single one that ended well?

And what's more outrageous is that in several of those reincarnations, he didn't even have the chance to be a human, and was reborn as a girl.

Fortunately, Xiao Shi had no memories, otherwise he would surely have killed until his eyes turned red, killing until no one in the world dared to claim supremacy.

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "I have to say, does he not have any halo on him? This is too realistic and cruel, isn't it?"

Exploding Heavens Faction Leader: "Exactly, even though it's reincarnation, where are the advantages of a reborn person?"

Number One Golden Core of the Nine Provinces: "I feel sorry for Xiao Shi for three seconds."

Na Du Tong Backbone Feng Baobao: "Poor child."

Han Paopao of the Seven Profound Sect: "Holy Monk Xuanzang, I have a question: are these reincarnation worlds real or illusory?"

Demon Queen: "I am curious too."

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Great Dream Reincarnation, Dreaming into a Butterfly. Whether it is Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly or the butterfly dreaming of Zhuang Zhou, no one can say for sure. The illusory can be real, and the real can be illusory. According to the view of Taiqing, these worlds might be real, because without awakening his true self, Xiao Shi is in a sense experiencing the lives of others."

Han Paopao of the Seven Profound Sect: "I see."

Ye Fan Zhen Bu Hei: "Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly!"

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "With these thousands of lifetimes of reincarnation as a foundation, I believe Xiao Shi will create a unique cultivation system of his own."

Han Paopao of the Seven Profound Sect: "There is another question; in these reincarnations, Xiao Shi died too young, without any sense of realization at all, so it seems the value is not high."

Journey to the West Scripture Seeker: "Although these fragments are small, are they not also a part of the myriad states of human life?"
