Chapter 69 Past and Present Life

"A real name that belongs to him."

He paused, his voice solemn.

"When the gates of heaven are reopened, this name will resound throughout the three realms and nine lands."

"All guardians of the heavenly way will respect this name and obey his orders."

Xiaobai looked down at Xiaoshushu, his little brows slightly furrowed.

The future of heaven?

What should it be called?

Her little head was turning rapidly.

It should be majestic, loud, and in line with his status.

It can't be too complicated, nor too casual.

After a moment, she raised her head, and a hint of determination flashed in her clear eyes.

"It's called Zhixu, right Zhixu."

Maintain order.

Simple, yet majestic.

A hint of approval flashed in Yin Tianzi's eyes.

"Zhixu, what a good name."

"When he returns to his position, he will restore order to the universe."

Xiao Shushu, no, it’s the order now.

He tightly grasped the corner of Xiaobai's clothes, his little face full of reluctance.

His eyes were slightly red.

"Xiaobai, I, I can't bear to leave you..."

He knew it was his mission, but still found it hard to give up.

Yin Tianzi looked at him, without urging him, but just waited quietly.

Zhixu took a deep breath and seemed to have made a decision.

He loosened his hands, and his small body emitted a soft golden light.

The phantom of the golden book of origin appeared again.

The golden light flowed and quickly condensed.

In the end, it turned into a palm-sized, simple and heavy golden book.

The small book floated up gently and landed on Xiaobai's shoulder.

Docile and quiet.

But, I will never speak again.

A naive thought with strange power entered Xiaobai's sea of ​​consciousness:

"Xiaobai, take care of yourself."

"wait for me."

"We'll see you soon, very soon."

The words haven't finished yet.

The little boy-like Zhixu, who represented his original consciousness, turned into a dazzling golden light.

Like a meteor breaking through the sky.

Instantly shot towards the deepest part of the forbidden land of the underworld.

That is the core area that is sealed layer by layer.

This is also the place where he must fulfill his destiny next.

Almost at the same time the golden light disappeared.

In various places in the underworld, in the main halls of several towering cities.

Several powerful auras fluctuated slightly.

Several city lords raised their eyes at the same time and looked towards the forbidden area.

A knowing smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Then, calm was restored and everyone continued to handle their own affairs.

It seemed as if the earth-shattering scene just now was just ordinary.

Yin Tianzi withdrew his gaze and looked at Xiaobai.

He raised his hand and pointed at Xiaobai's dantian area in his lower abdomen.

"Do you know the origin of the little sapling in your Dantian?"

Xiaobai blinked, a little confused.

That little tree has been absorbing her meager spiritual power ever since it accidentally saw it that day.

But he did not feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he felt abundant and pure spiritual energy circulating in his body.

"That is the World Enlightenment Tree."

Yin Tianzi's voice carried a hint of reminiscence.

"In ancient times, the great god Pangu created the world and planted this tree in the chaos and wasteland to lay the foundation for the world."

"And you."

He looked at Xiaobai with complex and gentle eyes.

"You are the daughter of the great god Pangu, who nurtured her with his own blood."

"You and this newborn world are one and the same, inseparable."

"So, when you reincarnate again, the origin of the Enlightenment Tree will also reincarnate with you."

Yin Tianzi sighed softly.

"In your previous life, you were born as a god, shining brightly, and the throne of godhood was within your reach."

"But because of this, no one can stop your determination to die for the people."

"That is your destiny and your fate."

“But this life is different.”

His tone became extremely serious.

"Everyone who knows your past hopes..."

"You can live well."

"Live for yourself."

Xiaobai listened quietly.

The little golden book on her shoulder exuded a faint warmth, as if silently supporting her.

There was no more confusion on her little face, only clear understanding.

yes.

Her fate in her previous life might have been determined from the moment she was born.

Born a god.

What a glory, but isn't it also a yoke?

If you get something too easily, you won’t know how to cherish it and you are destined to lose it.

Perhaps, that fall was part of the balance of nature.

Xiaobai raised his head and looked at Yin Tianzi, his childish voice carrying an unquestionable firmness.

"I see."

"What happened in the past is now a thing of the past."

She clenched her little fists.

"In this life, perhaps the throne of God is not what I seek."

"All I want now is..."

There was a gleam of determination in her eyes.

"Protect everyone I care about."

"besides."

She thought of her old friends from past lives who were trapped in the cracks of time or sleeping in unknown places and whom she had never met.

"Let those old friends regain their freedom."

This is what she wants to do most now.

As for the throne of God?

If we can protect it well, if we can gain freedom, then we will fight for it again.

If you can't...

She lowered her head and touched the quiet little golden book on her shoulder.

Well, why not give it up?

She was no longer the goddess who was born to be sacrificed.

She is Xiaobai and just wants to protect everything she cherishes.

When Yin Tianzi finished speaking, the air seemed to become stagnant.

Xiaobai digested this huge amount of information, his small body standing straight.

The little golden book on her shoulder vibrated slightly, as if resonating with her.

Yin Tianzi looked at her determined eyes and revealed a relieved smile.

He flipped his palm, and a scale with a faint glow appeared on the palm.

The scales were dark gold in color, with sharp edges, and the surface was engraved with ancient and obscure runes, exuding a desolate and domineering dragon power.

"This thing is called 'Reverse Scale'."

Yin Tianzi opened his mouth slowly, his voice carrying a barely perceptible fluctuation.

"It is the most precious thing in the heart of Dragon Clan Jing Gan, and it is also the source of his power."

"He made a bet on this a long time ago and lost to me."

Yin Tianzi's gaze fell on the reverse scale, as if penetrating time.

Xiaobai looked at the scale curiously. He could feel the terrifying power contained in it, as well as a hint of... familiar weakness.

"That guy Jing Gan..." Yin Tianzi said in a complicated tone, "In order to protect you, he hurt his origin."

"Now, most of his power and consciousness are sleeping deep in your sea of ​​consciousness. You need to slowly nurture him."

He handed the reverse scale to Xiaobai.

"This reverse scale can protect his remaining essence and also help him recover faster."

"But," Yin Tianzi changed the subject, his expression serious, "If he wants to truly wake up and regain his strength, I'm afraid he needs to wait until you take him to the upper realm."

"Until then, he will remain asleep."

Xiaobai stretched out his little hand and carefully took the heavy scale.

It feels cold to the touch, but it seems to carry a burning vitality.

She closed her eyes and her mind moved slightly.

The reverse scale turned into a dark golden light and instantly sank into her forehead.

Deep in the sea of ​​her consciousness, the originally blurry and almost disappearing dragon-shaped shadow was gently wrapped up by this stream of light.
