A gentle breeze blew, causing Xu Mubai's long hair to flutter. He gazed at the still-childish face of the boy before him, feeling an urge to reach out and stroke his cheek, but reason pulled his hand back, preventing him from doing something so outrageous.
"I have a feeling that the relationship between Master and Demon Lord Xuantian is a little unusual," Xu Mubai said.
What Feng Chu just told him omitted a lot about his relationship with Lou Munan. Xu Mubai just intuitively sensed that his master's relationship with Lou Munan was somewhat unusual.
Feng Chu kept his head down, and after a long while, Xu Mubai finally heard him speak:
"He...he was my uncle a long, long time ago."
Xu Mubai looked utterly shocked.
He stood there with his mouth agape, unsure of what to say.
Just then, a streak of blue lightning streaked across the sky from afar, accompanied by thunderous booms and claps—
The rumbling sound echoed among countless immortal mountains. The disciples of the Sword God Palace all looked up at the sky and, sure enough, saw an enormous, tiger-like beast speeding through the clouds. This beast was hundreds of feet tall, with antlers like a deer, and its fur was snow-white with a hint of gray. Lightning crackled around it, and as it moved, countless bolts of lightning shot out in all directions.
Thunder Beast, this is Feng Chu's spirit pet.
Everyone in the Sword God Palace knew that this was Ancestor Feng Chu's beloved pet, so they were all used to seeing it running around so freely in the clouds. Even the newly initiated disciples were quite surprised when they saw this Thunder Beast for the first time, their mouths agape.
The Thunder Beast has already reached the cultivation level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, but it still doesn't have a human form. In fact, it doesn't want to take human form. It doesn't understand why it should become human, when its current form is already the most dazzling sight in all the heavens and myriad realms.
The Thunder Beast rushed towards its master, Feng Chu, its body gradually shrinking.
By the time it pounced on Feng Chu, its body had almost transformed into that of a cat. Its fluffy fur was incredibly cute, just like when it was a kitten. Feng Chu caught it, and the Light Thunder Beast happily licked Feng Chu's fair cheek. Feng Chu stroked its soft fur, and it looked quite content, then jumped into Xu Mubai's arms.
Xu Mubai smiled and let it lie on his lap, then reached out to massage it. The little guy stretched its legs comfortably and then lay down to sleep.
Feng Chu stood up: "You play with it. I'll go to Zichen Palace and put these two lotus flowers in the spiritual spring."
After Feng Chu finished speaking, his figure disappeared from there.
————
Inside the Zichen Palace, countless flowers bloomed, their rich fragrance intoxicating. Deep within this palace, beside the central spring in the sleeping quarters, a white figure appeared.
A young man dressed in white held two lotus flowers. The petals of these lotuses were cyan, emitting a cyan glow, and the stamens were golden and white, making them very beautiful. The spiritual spring was crystal clear, and the huge spiritual tree planted in the spring was now even more robust, with its large white flower bud showing signs of blooming.
After gazing at the enormous flower bud for a long time, Feng Chu tossed the lotus flower in his hand, and the two Chaos Green Lotuses were planted in the spiritual spring. Originally, there were already three Chaos Green Lotuses here, but now there are five. Looking at the enormous flower bud, Feng Chu thought: With these two Chaos Green Lotuses... in that case, ten thousand years, no, perhaps five thousand years will be enough.
He couldn't wait for the birth of this Wood Spirit.
————
Two thousand years later.
In a celestial cave shrouded in mist, a handsome man in white sat on a futon, his eyes closed, his long hair moving without wind. He was enveloped in a holy light, and wildflowers bloomed on the surrounding grass. Suddenly, a divine halo appeared behind the man, and with its appearance, an overwhelming and terrifying power erupted from his body.
In an instant, the entire Sword God Palace trembled.
All the disciples looked towards a sacred mountain in the Sword God Palace, where dragon energy surged and sword light soared into the sky.
Xie Chen, the Palace Master of the Sword God Palace who was in seclusion, opened his eyes briefly, his expression showing surprise, but he quickly regained his composure and closed his eyes again. Beside the spiritual spring, a young man admiring the flowers smiled as he watched the strange phenomenon.
Inside the Phoenix Palace, a girl dressed in a red palace gown gazed at the Cosmic Lake, which reflected the scene at the Sword God Palace.
Under the clear sky, all the celestial bodies appeared. In an instant, mountains and rivers and all things were destroyed. In another instant, as if the world was being created, all things were awakened. Then, there was lightning speed, thunder that shook the world, and the flowers of the other shore bloomed. The entire sky turned into fragments of a mirror and fell down.
This phenomenon was truly astonishing.
The aura of the Immortal Emperor erupted forth.
Xu Mubai has finally become an Immortal Emperor.
The phenomena caused by his ascension to Immortal Emperor were truly terrifying. All the experts in the myriad realms were alarmed.
Those few who knew Xu Mubai's true identity weren't too bothered by the strange phenomena he caused, but the thought that he was the reincarnation of that person made them worry that if he were to fall into demonic ways one day, it would likely cause another catastrophe. However, thinking of the one in the Phoenix Palace, they reasoned that even if he fell into demonic ways, he would surely be suppressed by the Phoenix Emperor!
Xu Mubai has finally entered the realm of Immortal Emperor.
The first thing he did after becoming an Immortal Emperor was to tear through space and arrive in the Canglan Realm.
He arrived at a very ordinary mountain peak in the Canglan Realm, sat on a rock at the summit, gazed at the land below, and pondered for a long time. Three days later, a white-robed, golden-eyed youth appeared beside him.
The mountains and rivers are beautiful and charming, and under the sunlight, the great river surges forward.
At the summit of the mountain, a huge ancient pine tree stands with a vigorous yet graceful posture.
Under the tree, the young man in white looked at the man beside him and said, "You know?"
Xu Mubai nodded.
He knew. He knew he was the reincarnation of the Demon Lord Xuantian, and he also knew that the Phoenix Queen was indeed the Feng Yao he was searching for. Over the years, as his cultivation level continued to increase, he gradually began to recall certain things. The moment he stepped into the Immortal Emperor realm, he experienced the test of his inner demons; in an illusion, he saw his past life.
It turns out that his previous life was called Lou Munan, and he was the wicked and wicked Demon Lord Xuantian who repeatedly caused world-ending catastrophes.
In his past life, he was a wicked man who had killed countless innocent lives. Even his clones were all deeply sinful and had committed numerous murders.
“You…you are you, and he is him,” Feng Chu said softly.
Xu Mubai looked at Feng Chu: "Master, do you really think so? But the reason you accepted me as your disciple is because I am the reincarnation of Lou Munan, isn't it?"
