Chapter 215: Nine Reincarnations
Without a doubt.
Ning Qi's performance in the second level was not as amazing as the first. Although he had passed through the marks left by nine of the strongest Taoists, he was lucky in the last battle. If the girl with a child had held on for a few more breaths, Ning Qi would have been defeated without a doubt.
"There are countless spirit realms in the world sea, and there must be such a genius. However, I finally got an A+ rating." Ning Qi let out a long sigh, "If I get another A+ rating in the third level, I should be able to obtain all the authority of the Zhenwu Palace."
He was somewhat looking forward to it.
A is already the highest rating. As you can see from the content of the first two levels, it is very difficult.
With the strength of these martial saints in the martial world, even if they reach the second level, I am afraid that the first Taoist will not be able to defeat them.
He turned around and looked at the shadow of the last Taoist.
"Immortal Body... I remember it."
This is the first person of the same level who can make Ning Qi try his best.
The surrounding scene is getting darker and darker.
Ning Qi held his breath and concentrated.
He fell into an infinitely dark space. His spiritual awareness and golden pupils were completely ineffective, and he could not perceive anything around him.
He kept waiting for the loud voice to remind him that the third level was about to begin, but he never heard it.
Just surprised.
A beam of light passed through, and the surrounding darkness gradually dissipated.
A loud cry startled Ning Qi.
"This... seems to be from me?"
He was shocked and horrified to find that his body had turned into a baby again. His originally strong body and tremendous magic power had all disappeared.
"It's a son! A son! The He family's incense can finally be passed on!"
An ecstatic voice interrupted Ning Qi's thoughts, and several congratulations sounded around him, which also made him understand his situation.
It seems like he has... traveled through time and space and been reborn again!
Time passes slowly.
Six years passed in the blink of an eye.
On the hillside, the grass was lush and green. A little shepherd boy was leisurely lying on the grass herding cattle, with a broken dogtail grass in his mouth.
Ning Qi was extremely confused.
He clearly remembered that he had just passed the second level of the Zhenwu inheritance assessment, so how did he suddenly come to this world and become a farmer's son, 'He Yaozu'.
During these six years.
Ning Qi, or He Yaozu, has been thinking about this question.
"Am I still in the test, or have I really traveled through time again?"
No wonder Ning Qi thought so.
But this is Ning Qi's hundredth reincarnation, and he has awakened to the maximum level of enlightenment. In this case, it does not seem strange that he is reincarnated again.
certainly.
He didn't believe it just like that, but kept looking for flaws.
But he no longer had supernatural powers, nor did he have extraordinary comprehension. He was just a time traveler with innate wisdom. In this feudal society where people eat each other, he, at the age of six, did not even dare to behave in a way that was too evil.
He even vaguely felt that many memories were being forgotten. He could no longer remember the details of the life when he had ALS, and even some things that happened in Zhenwu Mountain were fading from his mind.
He didn't find it strange.
Isn't it normal for mortals to forget some things? After all, six years have passed.
gradually.
He Yaozu discovered that everything around him was true. His father, He Daniu, was just an honest farmer. He had three older sisters. The eldest sister was already married, while the second and third sisters were helping out at home. Recently, a matchmaker came to propose marriage to his second sister.
As for his mother, she fell ill and died half a month after giving birth to him.
"It seems that I have really been reborn again. It's a pity that I haven't been able to find the path to immortality in my previous life. I don't know how powerful the immortal weapon is. And my master and the others, I don't know if they can finally withstand the invasion of the Mountain and Sea Realm..." He Yaozu has too many regrets, but things have come to this point, and he is powerless to change the situation.
Finally, he decided to stop living in a muddle and live his life well.
Although he does not have extraordinary wisdom in this life, with the wisdom of an adult, it should not be difficult for him to change the fate of his family.
He thought of the love his father and three sisters showed for him, and a smile appeared on his face.
Spitting out the dogtail grass in his mouth, He Yaozu shouted to the sky:
"I, He Yaozu, will never be content with being ordinary!"
The old yellow cow mooed in the distance, as if in response, and the shepherd boy couldn't help but burst into laughter.
From that day on, He Yaozu fully accepted his identity.
He began to make a living.
From the surrounding situation, I learned that I was living in a feudal dynasty in this life. As for my family, they were farmers at the bottom of the dynasty. They worked hard on the farm all year round. If there was a good harvest, they could still have a full meal after paying taxes. But if there was a natural disaster, they would go hungry for five out of ten meals.
By chance, he learned about the existence of warriors.
"If you want to change your destiny, you must learn martial arts!" He Yaozu's eyes were firm.
But for a farmer's son to practice martial arts is simply a fantasy. Not to mention the way to practice martial arts, the four words "poor in literature but rich in martial arts" are not a joke. The meat needed for martial arts training alone is enough to discourage all farmers.
He Yaozu did not give up.
With his intelligence that surpassed his peers, he was recognized by Mr. Liu, an old teacher in the same village. After that, he began to study calligraphy and writing seriously, and at the same time helped Mr. Liu.
Slowly.
Some people began to ask He Yaozu to write letters and other tasks, and the family's financial situation gradually improved.
Some people in the village began to praise the He family for producing a talented person, who might become a big boss in the future.
He Daniu swung the hoe more vigorously and was smiling every day.
Thanks to He Yaozu's existence, the second sister's marriage was smoother, and she ended up marrying a butcher - the butcher was attracted by his brother-in-law's ability to read and write, and he didn't want his son to spend his future working on the chopping board like himself.
But in fact, being a butcher is already a good profession as you can still make some money every day.
He Yaozu benefited from this and could occasionally eat meat.
Life is getting better and better, and he has more motivation.
He had gradually forgotten the memories of his past life, but occasionally in his dreams, he missed the great magical power that allowed him to enter and exit the sky at will and split mountains with ease.
Time passes day by day.
As He Yaozu grew older day by day, his body became stronger and he could do more things.
Mr. Liu had completely regarded him as the successor and taught him everything he knew. He Yaozu had once thought that maybe he could study literature first, pass the imperial examinations, and then practice martial arts when his financial conditions improved, but Mr. Liu's words shattered his fantasy.
"Hey! Not everyone can pass the exam to become a scholar. It is said that noble sons come from poor families. Look at yourself, are you from a poor family?" He Yaozu heard despair in Mr. Liu's words. Looking at the empty eyes, he seemed to understand why Mr. Liu had always stayed in the village.
He Yaozu looked at his own wooden house which was extremely cold in winter and completely gave up this path.
Poor in literature but rich in martial arts, but this "poor in literature" himself does not even have an admission ticket.
He Yaozu accumulated money.
The third sister also became a nun and married a blacksmith, which was considered a good marriage.
soon.
He Yaozu is fifteen years old.
Mr. Liu died when he was fourteen years old, and he became the new teacher in the village, and he saved money even faster.
This day.
He Yaozu looked at his elderly father and said:
"Dad, I want to practice martial arts."
He Daniu was startled, and then he trembled and advised:
"Son, I know you have high aspirations, but we can't cultivate them. You are a capable child, but I am sorry that I didn't lay a good foundation for you. Listen to me and put this worry aside. Now that our family is getting better and better, I will find a wife for you one day. In the future, we will train the next generation well, and each generation will be stronger than the last, okay?"
Looking at his father's hopeful eyes, He Yaozu's heart softened, but he still said firmly:
"Dad, I still want to learn martial arts, let me try."
He Daniu sighed repeatedly and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Finally, he turned around and went into the house to get a purse. He placed it in front of He Yaozu and said in a buzzing voice:
"Dad is incompetent and can only help you this much."
He seemed to have lost some faith.
He Yaozu looked at He Daniu's hunched back with red eyes. He became even more determined to make a name for himself and not let his father down.
A few days later.
The three sisters returned to their parents' home at the same time.
The family was having a great time, as if they were back in their childhood, and He Yaozu was extremely happy.
After dinner.
The three sisters seemed to have discussed it beforehand. Each of them gave He Yaozu a purse, then touched He Yaozu's head encouragingly and left with a smile.
He Yaozu clutched the three purses in his hands, veins bulging on his arms.
The memory of his previous life became increasingly vague, and he sometimes wondered if it was just an illusory dream.
He now has only one thought, to become a warrior and change his destiny.
When he was ten years old, he saw two warriors fighting and taking several lives easily. This idea became more certain. He did not want to die so powerlessly.
A few days later.
He Yaozu set out for the county town. He had already found out that for just ten taels of silver, he could learn martial arts at the Black Tiger Martial Arts School.
Paid the tuition.
He Yaozu finally started practicing martial arts.
But to his disappointment, his talent was very average. According to Senior Brother Li, if he had sufficient resources, he might be able to achieve some success.
But are the resources sufficient?
At least a few hundred taels of silver.
This is undoubtedly a sky-high price for He Yaozu.
The strong feeling of despair suffocated him, but he did not give up. He just practiced hard. He believed that hard work pays off. But soon, the money he had accumulated over the years was quickly used up because of buying medicine.
He Yaozu was distraught.
If there were no medicine, even with his talent, it would take a huge amount of time to make even one step forward.
Moreover, all the accumulation of many years would be destroyed in an instant. When he thought of his father's desperate and lost eyes, his heart trembled.
Senior Brother Li found him, and his laughter was a little tempting:
"Are you interested in making a deal?"
Since then.
He Yaozu became the black glove of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School, doing all the dirty work in exchange for medicines and secrets to advance in martial arts.
Time goes by day by day.
He Yaozu has completely forgotten everything about his past life. He can only remember a few fragments of it when he occasionally dreams.
This year, he was twenty-five years old.
Finally, I have made some achievements in martial arts.
He Daniu is already very old. Although he no longer has to work on the farm, the hard work from his early years of farming still leaves him in poor health. The medicines and herbs that He Yaozu found are not very effective. However, he is very happy that his son has a promising future and has become a superior warrior!
Everyone in the surrounding area envies He Daniu for having a good son.
The three sisters also lived a good life. They had a good status in their husband's family and were not bullied.
There was only one thing that made the three brothers-in-law secretly dissatisfied.
That is, when they proposed that their children want to learn martial arts from He Yaozu, they were rejected.
But in other places, He Yaozu kept helping, and coupled with his identity as a warrior, a certain balance was maintained.
They themselves don’t know that He Yaozu doesn’t want his nephew to follow in his footsteps.
So many years.
He wanted to escape from the control of the Black Tiger Martial Arts School all the time, but he had been trapped deeper and deeper. He knew some unknown secrets and knew that he would get into trouble sooner or later. Therefore, he had not married for so many years, which made He Daniu and his three sisters very anxious.
This day.
He Yaozu is on his way home to celebrate his father's birthday.
Today, the house is no longer the wooden house it used to be. The large courtyard with three entrances makes the farmers in the village extremely envious, and He Yaozu has also purchased other properties in the city.
Just walked into the yard.
He Yaozu's pupils shrank suddenly.
More than a dozen heads rolled to the ground, like large watermelons with their mouths cut open. After he recognized the face of the head, his eyes became bloodshot and he let out a low growl like a beast.
These heads belonged to none other than his sisters, brothers-in-law, and their children.
He Yaozu went crazy.
A faint voice sounded: "I suggest you calm down."
Senior Brother Li is here too.
He Yaozu growled:
"Why?"
He was unwilling to roar in anger, but did not dare to act rashly. Senior Brother Li was holding He Daniu in his hand. He Daniu's eyes were dull and he still hadn't recovered from the tragedy.
"It's just that you know too much and someone needs your brain."
He Yaozu knew that he was being pushed out to take the blame.
"If you want my life, just come and take it. Why do you want to bring harm to my family?" His eyes were bloodshot.
Senior Brother Li chuckled:
"Who knows if you have told others about this, so I'm sorry. We are brothers, so don't blame me for not giving you a chance. If you kill yourself, I will spare your father's life. I mean what I say. He doesn't have many years left to live anyway, so I can take care of him in his old age."
As he said this, he pinched He Daniu's neck. He Daniu shook his head in pain, but his face became more and more purple and he was about to die.
He Yaozu was so angry that he felt like he was going mad. It seemed as if something was rushing out of his mind. Looking at his father's painful expression, he finally chose to give up resisting.
"I promise."
The deep voice brought He Daniu to tears. He wished he could just die and not drag his son down.
Senior Brother Li laughed and kicked a sword over.
He Yaozu held the sword tremblingly.
reverse.
The tip of the sword is pointed at the heart.
He looked sad:
"Dad, I am unfilial. Perhaps I shouldn't have learned martial arts back then."
He Daniu just kept shaking his head.
He Yaozu's eyes gradually became firm:
"You must keep your promise. Otherwise, I will not let you go even if I turn into a ghost."
At this moment, all the experiences of the past twenty-five years are replaying in my mind, and only I know the ups and downs.
He closed his eyes and exerted force suddenly.
The sword was about to pierce his heart.
But in an instant.
Time and space stood still, and He Yaozu felt that something in his mind finally broke through. The ray of light that cut through the chaos dispelled all the fog, and countless dusty memories burst out like a tsunami.
He Yaozu stood there in a daze.
That spiritual light... appeared just after he crossed over to the martial world in his previous life, and it awakened his full level of enlightenment.
Now it reappears once again.
"Martial world? Yes, martial world!" He Yaozu's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he remembered everything.
Senior Brother Li was somewhat uneasy. He Yaozu's condition frightened him inexplicably. He roared:
"He Yaozu, what are you waiting for!"
He Yaozu stood up slowly. He looked at everything in front of him with complicated eyes. He stopped at He Daniu and then looked at his own calloused hands:
"So... this is the test for the third level..."
He Yaozu, no, Ning Qi finally understood everything.
All memories are revived.
That spiritual light cut through all confusion.
He realized that he had not been reincarnated at all, but had unknowingly undergone the third level of the Zhenwu Palace test.
"This level tests one's will."
"It's so difficult." Ning Qi sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Senior Brother Li was about to roar, as a strong sense of uneasiness drove him to cut off He Daniu's arm with a sword to intimidate Ning Qi. However, he was horrified to find that his body had completely frozen, and Ning Qi's eyes made him feel unfamiliar and even frightened.
Ning Qi glanced at Senior Brother Li in front of him indifferently, waved his hand lightly, and Senior Brother Li turned into powder without leaving a trace.
He held He Daniu, his eyes somewhat complicated.
Although he knew that everything before his eyes was a test illusion, it was so real that he enjoyed his father's love without reservation for twenty-five years.
"Child...where is my Yaozu?" He Daniu finally mustered up the courage to ask.
Although the Ning Qi in front of him still had He Yaozu's body, his temperament was completely different. He could tell at a glance that this was not his child.
"Yaozu... He is the reincarnation of an immortal. Now that he has completed his merits, he has ascended to the immortal world." Ning Qi whispered.
There was an astonishing gleam in He Daniu's eyes.
"My child has become an immortal? Great! Great!" He was so excited that his face turned red and he danced with joy, but he was overtired and fell asleep in just a few breaths.
Ning Qi gently placed him on the bed, glanced at the familiar face again, and whispered:
"Goodbye, father."
As soon as he had a thought, everything around him burst into dense lines like shattered glass. Everything was becoming unreal. He sighed softly in his heart, and finally his eyes became completely determined.
"break!"
Everything receded like the tide.
The darkness came again.
When Ning Qi woke up again, he found that he had turned into a baby again.
"Isn't one lifetime enough?"
In this life, he is the son of a wealthy businessman.
The start was much better than the previous life.
This time he was very calm, like a bystander.
He watched himself get married, have children, live a dissolute life, and eventually die surrounded by his children and grandchildren.
He was calm, as if he was watching another life of his own, but he also had many more insights in his heart.
The picture is broken.
Ning Qi reincarnated again.
…
Again and again.
Ning Qi was born into a royal family and competed for the throne. He was abandoned at birth and became a beggar. He eventually died in a cold and dilapidated temple. He also appeared in the Immortal Sect and was praised as a genius, but was betrayed by a traitor when he went out for training...
Every life has a different trajectory.
But Ning Qi's heart was as solid as a rock, without any ripples.
Except for some twists and turns in the first life, the rest of the lives were like a God's perspective, watching coldly.
A total of nine reincarnations.
Ning Qi gained a lot of insights. He understood that this third level was a test of his character and will. If his will was weak, he would be trapped in it and unable to extricate himself.
Fortunately.
He has completely 'picked' himself out.
The ninth world picture was shattered again. Ning Qi thought that darkness would come again, but he did not expect that the long-lost grand voice finally sounded:
"Third level passed, evaluation... beyond Class A, cannot be evaluated."
