The moment the stone coffin was pushed open, a ferocious scream suddenly rang in Sheng Ning's mind.
It was as if something had broken free of its cage and instantly rushed into her body.
Especially when she looked down and saw the owner of the stone coffin, her body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cellar, and she could not move.
"What happened? What did Junior Sister see?"
"Is what's inside the stone coffin terrifying? Otherwise, why does Junior Sister look like she's seen a ghost?"
"Help! Now that you've said that, I'm even more afraid to look. I'm allergic to ugly things..."
Not only Sheng Ning, but even Ye Si stopped talking the moment he saw the owner of the stone coffin.
Everyone felt strange, and after walking forward to see the face of the person lying in the stone coffin.
Although everyone's facial expressions were different, they all revealed the same emotion.
That was shock.
"Junior Sister, do you think it's possible that you were born after your mother passed away, like Fellow Daoist Qi?"
Finally, a low murmur broke the eerie silence inside the tomb.
Yu Ye lowered his eyes to look at the face inside the stone coffin that was almost identical to his junior sister's. Every now and then, he would look up to make sure that his junior sister was really standing in front of him.
Instead of lying in a stone coffin.
Qi Wenyao, who was called out, paused for a moment, "My mother was pregnant with me before she was injured, and it was my father who exhausted all his strength to save me..."
The implication is that 'Sheng Ning' in the stone coffin appears to have been dead for many years, and the tomb is a place where people can only enter and not leave, unless someone like Master Qi is guarding it.
Sheng Ning was very difficult to be born into.
After Qi Wenyao finished speaking, the tomb chamber fell silent once again.
Unlike the others who were silently staring at the owner of the stone coffin, Sheng Ning was in a very noisy environment.
The ferocious scream that had just echoed in her mind was less a scream and more like someone stretching in her ear.
Sheng Ning lowered her eyes to look at the girl lying in the stone coffin who looked exactly like her, and her fingers gripping the edge of the stone wall tightened slightly.
'Hey, you probably can't see me, right?'
When the ethereal voice rang in her ears, Sheng Ning pretended not to hear it and continued to stare blankly at the girl in front of her.
'Tsk, I didn't expect that even though her soul was torn to pieces back then, she still managed to stubbornly reincarnate?'
'Let me see... Hmm, five elemental roots, the fire elemental root is mutated, and oh, it even has two divine beasts.'
'It has to be you, no one else would be so lucky.'
A milky white, glutinous rice ball-like thing jumped onto the back of Sheng Ning's hand.
Although it had no temperature, Sheng Ning could still feel its presence.
Her eyelashes fluttered as she heard a soft voice beside her.
"I told you from the beginning you shouldn't have been so reckless; you almost ended up with your body completely destroyed."
'It was me, wasn't it? I pieced your remains back together and even managed to snatch two fragments of your soul. Otherwise, you wouldn't be where you are today.'
'But a remnant soul is still a remnant soul. Look at yourself now, tsk, 16 years old and still only a Nascent Soul? So weak.'
Since Sheng Ning left the Taixu Sect and was taken in as a disciple by the Wudi Sect, his cultivation level has increased rapidly, like pouring water into a bucket using a large ladle.
Whether on the mainland or in the Northern Region, everyone who learns her true age is amazed by her talent.
This little white ball of a ball is not even the size of her palm, yet they say she entered the Nascent Soul stage at the age of 16?
Her lips twitched slightly; she wanted to hear more from it, but then someone poked her.
"Fellow Daoist Sheng, what are you daydreaming about?"
Xie Wenxuan stood by Sheng Ning's side the whole time.
This trip to the Northern Secret Realm actually made him a little more mature.
At least he's no longer as noisy and childish as he used to be.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone's attention was focused on Sheng Ning at that moment, he would have called her three times without receiving a response.
He wouldn't poke her.
Suddenly snapping back to her senses, Sheng Ning blinked. When she looked at the back of her hand again, she found that the little ball of flesh was gone.
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Fellow Daoist Sheng, do you still remember who your parents are? They were both cultivators?" The more Qi Wenyao looked at the owner of the stone coffin, the more he felt something was wrong.
Even though the owner of the stone coffin was pale, it was not hard to see that she and Sheng Ning were exactly the same person.
Sheng Ning is only 16 years old. If she really has a relationship with the owner of this stone coffin, how did she leave the Northern Secret Realm and how did she end up in the Taixu Sect on the mainland?
She looked up and glanced at the gazes of everyone who were looking at her.
Sheng Ning shook her head and said, "I don't remember my parents..."
Actually, it's not that she doesn't remember.
The original author never wrote about her background as a cannon fodder female supporting character in the original text.
The name 'Sheng Ning' only appeared a few times in the original book, and the last time it appeared was when she was described as starving to death on the street.
Sheng Ning didn't even know who her biological parents were. Seeing his junior sister frowning and deep in thought, Su Daiyuan said in a deep voice, "There are many people in the world who look alike."
"Junior Sister may just happen to look like this gentleman."
Lu Qing'an stood to the side, his gaze lingering between the stone coffin and his junior sister's face. "Senior Brother, don't you feel guilty saying that?"
They had just worked together to push open the stone coffin.
The girl lying in the stone coffin not only resembled her junior sister in facial features, but even her figure was the same.
There are indeed many people in the world who look alike, but this junior sister is completely cut from the same mold!
Su Daiyuan raised his hand and touched his nose. "Junior Sister is only 16 years old, but this gentleman's bone age is already over a thousand years old."
"Furthermore, the Northern Secret Realm has been closed for so many years. It was only opened this time because of the totem. It was rarely opened before."
"Junior Sister can't possibly be..."
"Is he the reincarnation of this gentleman?"
Lu Jingshen's words caused an uproar throughout the tomb.
Lu Qingan clenched his fist and slammed it hard into his palm. "I knew that cultivators with five elemental roots had long been extinct. How could Junior Sister be so special?"
"And then there's the speed of my junior sister's cultivation, and her comprehension of ancient texts."
"If Junior Sister is truly the reincarnation of this gentleman..."
More than a dozen pairs of eyes all fell on Sheng Ning.
Sheng Ning, “...Huh?”
Yu Ye ran straight to the back, grabbed Kong Wu's arm, and pulled him to his junior sister's side.
"Master Kongwu, tell me, what exactly is the relationship between my junior sister and this gentleman?"
In this matter, Kongwu has always just stood at a distance and watched.
Now Yu also pulled him over, and he put his hands together and recited a Buddhist chant, "The cause and effect of the world are all subject to reincarnation."
