Path of Alchemy Mastery-Chapter 8: A Pearl in the Sea of Consciousness, Named Reincarnation
Chapter 8: Chapter 8: A Pearl in the Sea of Consciousness, Named Reincarnation
Mu Can only felt as if he had experienced a long-lasting dream.
In the dream, he wore golden armor, riding atop a massive Heavenly Dragon.
Behind him was a seemingly endless army clad in black armor.
Beside him a large flag fluttered in the wind, a large "Xuan" character on it, as if drenched in fresh blood.
Mu Can, riding the Heavenly Dragon, led a charge toward the enemy opposite him.
However, the dream abruptly ended there, leaving only boundless darkness.
His eyelashes slightly trembled; Mu Can slowly opened his eyes.
"Where is this? Wasn't I dead?" Mu Can felt someone beside him and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Kid, if it weren't for me, you would definitely be dead. Could you just casually consume such rubbish elixirs?"
The speaker was a girl who appeared to be in her twenties, dressed in simple, plain clothes.
Only a golden hairpin was inserted into her coiled-up hair.
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on ƒreewebɳovel.com.
As natural as a lotus flower rising out of clear water, void of any carving.
What a peerless beauty, perhaps even destruction of countries and cities would look pale in comparison.
"Beautiful." Mu Can was so mesmerized that even he, who usually maintained self-control, lost himself for a moment.
He didn't feel anything amiss about his current surroundings.
Nor did he catch the meaning of the woman's words; top-tier elixirs were deemed trash by her.
"Kid, am I beautiful?" The woman smiled sweetly and asked.
In an instant, Mu Can felt as if the entire world had bloomed into myriad flowers.
It was like a blank page being splashed with various colors of paint, instantly brightening.
"Beautiful." Mu Can, usually thick-skinned, unprecedentedly felt a trace of shyness.
His delicate face unexpectedly blushed, like a ripe apple.
"How bold, daring to disrespect me." The woman's smile vanished in a flash.
As if a calm sea suddenly turned violent with a storm, thunder and lightning.
A powerful aura arose from the woman.
Mu Can only felt a chill over his body, felt a heaviness, his head tilted, and he neatly fainted once again.
"How can you be so faint-hearted?" Feeling as if she had taken the joke too far, the young girl scratched her head and said.
A delicate, boneless pale hand gently touched Mu Can's forehead.
A thick Soul Power continuously flowed from this small hand into Mu Can's body.
"Hmm." While unconscious, Mu Can only felt comfort throughout his body, thus letting out a soft moan.
When he opened his eyes a second time, Mu Can felt that he indeed hadn't been dreaming; there truly was a woman like a fairy beside him.
Mu Can gently surveyed his surroundings and found he was in a place he had never seen before.
Atop a scenic mountain peak, a waterfall rushed down from the mountain top in the distance, its roar echoing afar.
A giant immortal crane circled in the distance, a massive golden carp leapt from the water, then gently fell back, splashing droplets all around.
"Where am I?" Mu Can knew something must have happened while he was unconscious, for now, he could feel the power slowly returning within his body.
"This is the first layer of the Reincarnation Pearl," the woman replied when she heard Mu Can's question.
"Who are you? Reincarnation Pearl? What is the Reincarnation Pearl? How did I end up here?" Mu Can asked, curious as a child.
"Me? Who am I? I am the Immortal Venerable, I am the Dan Venerate, who am I? I am Purple Cloud, I am a remnant soul."
Hearing this, the woman painfully grabbed her head and screamed in agony.
"Sister, sister, don't get agitated, let's talk calmly," Mu Can, having just experienced the aura of the woman, didn't want to faint again.
The woman slowly regained her composure and returned to a calm and serene state.
Through the mysterious woman's introduction, Mu Can gained some understanding of his current situation.
He was in a layer within the Reincarnation Pearl.
And the Reincarnation Pearl, is a mystical treasure that appeared in the Immortal World tens of thousands of years ago.
Because of this, a fierce war broke out in the Immortal World, and after the war, the Reincarnation Pearl disappeared.
Also disappeared was the only female Supreme of the Immortal World of that time, known as Dan Venerate, the Purple Cloud Fairy.
The woman with unparalleled beauty in front of him, was the Purple Cloud Fairy who disappeared along with the Reincarnation Pearl.
"I didn't expect the Immortal World to really exist," Mu Can silently thought.
In the Human World, the pinnacle of Martial Arts is ascending to the Immortal World, shattering the Void, and entering another space.
This is a well-known legend, but for ten thousand years, no one has been able to achieve it.
"Sister, you said you are a Supreme of the Immortal World, how come you are here? And also, how can I get out of here?" Mu Can finally made the woman smile, and hurriedly asked.
"When I self-destructed, I died, but my remnant soul was sucked into this Reincarnation Pearl, and only woke up three days ago when I sensed a familiar aura. As for the Reincarnation Pearl, it should be in your Sea of Consciousness. Because I vaguely feel that something changed in this Reincarnation Pearl three years ago."
The woman had regained her composure, and communicating with her was no different from a normal woman, playful and cheerful like a young girl.
"Three years ago? Damn, wasn't that when I was severely injured?" Mu Can blurted out.
"Could it be that this Reincarnation Pearl entered my body three years ago and has been absorbing my power during these years?" The intelligent Mu Can instantly realized something.
His guess was very close to the truth.
Realizing this, Mu Can lay on the ground, beating his chest and stomping his feet.
"It must be the case, my recovery needs some energy, during these three years, I felt energy entering my body every day while I was sleeping," the woman said with a smile upon seeing Mu Can's actions.
"These past three years, do you know how I've been living?" Mu Can's tears instantly flowed down.
During these three years, he dared not take revenge, fearing implicating the Mu Family, and had to hide on the Zimu Cliff, cultivating hard with no hope in sight.
Three years had passed, and he didn't know how much the person who harmed him had grown.
"Crying? Useless child," the woman said sternly upon seeing Mu Can's tears.
"Do you realize how much having the Reincarnation Pearl will change your future? My Spiritual Sense is incomplete, I've forgotten many things, but my intuition tells me that the Reincarnation Pearl is showing signs of recognizing you as its master. Otherwise, how could it reside in the body of a mere mortal like you," the woman said with a slight frown.
"Over these three years, what you've lost will surely be compensated in other ways. With the Reincarnation Pearl in hand, what kind of enemy can't you deal with?" The woman pondered and continued speaking.
Back then, the Purple Cloud Fairy was the most famous Immortal Venerable in the Immortal World, everything was because of her unrivaled Alchemy Technique and her stunning beauty.
Now her Spiritual Sense was incomplete, but she knew, as long as she was in the Reincarnation Pearl, one day, the former her would completely return.
At that time, those who besieged and plotted against her, none would escape.
A woman holds grudges; a beautiful woman holds even deeper grudges; a beautiful woman endowed with unmatched power not only holds grudges.
She also seeks revenge.
