The space within the tiny astral-being was as vast as the starry skies, boundless and boundless.
At this moment, there was an invisible object floating in the starry sky. It was as if it was a void that could not be seen or touched.
After a long time, this formless object seemed to have gained a strand of consciousness. It actually floated up and roamed about, sensing everything here.
The formless soul transformed into a blurry silhouette. It was actually Qin Wentian's silhouette.
"Where is this place?" Qin Wentian sensed this space. It seemed to be a boundless starry sky. But very soon, he discovered that this place wasn't the nine heavenly layers. It was a similar place.
"This is the tiny astral-being in my sea of consciousness." A strand of consciousness appeared in Qin Wentian's mind. He was extremely shocked. He didn't die. The Undying Scripture seemed to have saved his life. Also, the remnant of his soul was actually absorbed into the tiny astral-being?
What treasure was this thing his father left behind for him exactly?
"As long as one's soul isn't destroyed, it means that one will never die." Qin Wentian's soul fluctuated. After that, he actually started to cultivate in his soul form.
He didn't think about that battle, he didn't think too much about it. Right now, he only had a single thought in his mind. Live on, he had to live on.
With the Undying Scripture, his soul could be revived. At that time, he could reconstruct his body.
As long as he didn't die, there would be hope. Even if he lost everything, he could always start over again.
Time flowed by bit by bit. This world was incomparably quiet, there was no sound at all. However, given how intense the battle was, even with a heaven-defying art like the Undying Scripture, wanting to revive his soul wasn't something that could be done in a short period of time. Once he started cultivating, he forgot about time.
In the blink of an eye, seven years passed. During these seven years, many great changes occurred in the immortal realms. The City of Ancient Emperors also underwent many changes. Experts rose up constantly, and there were also experts who fell.
With regards to the battle that happened in the past, many people gradually forgot about it. Qin Wentian's name was also gradually buried in their memories. Maybe only then would people casually mention that battle that shook the immortal realms.
However, there were some people who wouldn't forget that battle.
For those who participated in that war back then, many of their juniors were killed. In fact, there were even two immortal emperors who died. From this, one could very well imagine how powerful that expert was.
A peak-stage immortal emperor, Emperor Yu.
Hence, a pursuit occurred in the immortal realms. Several peak-stage immortal emperors chased after Emperor Yu, heavily injuring him and almost killing him. But even so, Emperor Yu still managed to escape. This battle caused a huge commotion in the immortal realms.
However, no matter how the outside world changed, the forbidden land of the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom was still deserted and barren.
The slovenly madman seemed like he would never be bored, but he also seemed to be used to loneliness. He lay on a rock in the ruins and seemed to be asleep, quietly waiting for something.
Within the tiny astral-being, after seven years of cultivation, Qin Wentian's soul had already grown stronger and stronger. Just like in the past, he could clearly manifest a soul body and stand in this space.
At this moment, he finally stopped his cultivation.
His soul body floated in the air, moving towards a particular constellation. In the next instant, a resplendent astral light flashed. Qin Wentian only felt many memories appearing in his sea of consciousness. However, these weren't memories of his father but were memories of innate techniques.
Heavenly Battle Divine Fist: When cultivated to the extreme, one can shatter an entire world, possessing the power to destroy the heavens and earth, shattering space itself.
Qin Wentian's sea of consciousness trembled. His soul body floated towards another constellation and in the next instant, brand new memories appeared.
Slaughter Divine Art: When cultivated to the grand completion stage, millions of rays of slaughter light would manifest with a lift of one's hand, transforming into a boundless art of slaughter. A single strike could annihilate millions of lives, a world-destroying art.
Qin Wentian's soul body trembled, unceasingly flying towards the constellations. Every time he did so, his soul body would tremble. After a long time, he stood in the air in a daze, like a wooden chicken. It was like his soul had left his body. Naturally, the him right now was only his soul.
All of them were supreme arts that were comparable to God's Hand. Each and every one of them was sufficient to cause the entire immortal realms to go crazy. However, within the tiny astral-being, there seemed to be an inexhaustible supply of them.
After a long time, his soul body trembled as he mumbled, "Father, what heaven-defying treasure did you leave behind for me exactly?"
When he died, his main soul didn't die and was brought into this space. From this, one could very well imagine how heaven-defying this treasure was.
Maybe, back then, his father relied on this treasure to not die and was able to restart his cultivation.
Qin Wentian then thought of what his father was forced to hand over by his clan. Could it be that it was this heaven-defying treasure?
And now, his father passed this treasure down to him.
He recalled the time when he was still a baby. It must have been that time.
He once thought that this treasure only contained fragments of his father's memories. He didn't expect that there would be so many divine arts within it.
Also, even now, he still hadn't completely unearthed the secrets of this treasure. What exactly was this tiny astral-being?
"It has been so many years. Are Qing 'er and Qingcheng still doing well? Also, I wonder how Bai Qing, Mengchen, Yunxi and the others are doing. And the me now, where am I? Am I still in the Evergreen Kingdom? "Qin Wentian mused. After which, his soul floated outwards.
In the outside world, the eyelashes of the sloppy old freak twitched. After which, he opened his eyes and sat up. Before him, a faint aura that was so weak that it was almost impossible to sense it started to grow stronger and stronger. After which, a powerful soul aura gushed forth as a formless current of qi flowed about. After which, a soul body appeared, transforming into Qin Wentian's silhouette.
The eyes of the slovenly madman gleamed with sharpness as he stared at this scene in bewilderment. He stared at Qin Wentian's soul body and spoke, "Interesting, you actually awakened within that treasure?"
Qin Wentian also started. After he woke up, he wasn't in the Evergreen Kingdom. To think that he was actually in the forbidden ground of the Mountain of Laws in the Hokage Sengoku Kingdom. Not only that, he encountered this old freak again.
"Old fellow, are you the one who brought me here?" Qin Wentian asked, his tone was very natural.
"Hehe, interesting." The old freak jumped down and circled around Qin Wentian. He was filled with curiosity as he asked, "What's inside that treasure? Where did you get it from? "
"Passed down by my ancestors." Qin Wentian rolled his eyes.
"Passed down by your ancestors? The Azure Mystic Immortal Realms wouldn't be able to take out such a treasure. "The old freak narrowed his eyes, surveying Qin Wentian. His gaze caused Qin Wentian to feel uneasy.
"Forget it, I won't ask anymore. You probably don't even know. However, when you see me, this old man, you should at least kowtow to me. Why do you still have such an attitude?" The old freak spoke.
Qin Wentian rolled his eyes and ignored the old freak.
"After I died, what happened to the Evergreen Kingdom?" Qin Wentian asked.
"After you died, the battle stopped. As for what happened to them now, I have no idea. However, you better worry about yourself first. Right now, other than your soul energy, you don't even have a physical body. You actually still have the mood to think about other things." The old freak spoke with interest.
"Didn't you impart the Undying Scripture to me? As long as my soul doesn't die, I'm also undying. What's there to worry about?" Qin Wentian asked.
"Hehe, why don't you try forging a physical body?" The old freak smiled as he stared at Qin Wentian, like he was looking at a rare treasure. The uneasiness in Qin Wentian's heart grew even more intense.
Qin Wentian's soul body nodded. After that, he sat down cross-legged as flesh, blood, tendons, and bones gradually appeared on his soul body. After a long time, his soul was enveloped by a physical body. This was a complete physical body with no flaws at all, exactly the same as Qin Wentian in the past.
But when Qin Wentian opened his eyes, he was staring ahead in a daze, his gaze somewhat lifeless.
Stretching out his hands, Qin Wentian stared at his glowing skin as he mumbled, "Do I have to start all over again?"
Only when his physical body was being rebuilt did he realize that this time around, he had truly died once and wasn't merely heavily injured. His physical body was shattered and his soul was almost destroyed as well. Only a trace of indestructibility remained, allowing him to come back to life.
But the result was that although his soul energy was still extremely strong, his physical body was now completely empty.
However, his reconstructed body was empty. There was no power of the stars, let alone the power of rules. He had become an ordinary person through and through.
"Am I crippled?" Qin Wentian mumbled.
"HAHAHA …" The sloppy madman suddenly laughed uproariously. He inclined his head, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate through the void as he sighed, "There's actually such a foolish person like you in the world. Do you know what sort of good fortune this is? Even those supreme characters would be willing to pay any price for such a good fortune. But you, you actually have such thoughts? "
"Good fortune!" Qin Wentian froze for a moment before his eyes flickered.
In an instant, Qin Wentian's heart violently trembled. He sensed the energy of the heavens and earth, as well as the flow of astral energy. Indeed, it was incomparably clear.
As though he suddenly thought of something, Qin Wentian abruptly closed his eyes. After that, his perception soared upwards.
Not long after, when Qin Wentian opened his eyes again, a sharp light flashed as he was in high spirits.
He glanced at the crazy old man and understood why the crazy old man was laughing so loudly.
"Do you understand now?" The old freak smiled as he stared at Qin Wentian.
"Many thanks, senior." Qin Wentian bowed.
"You are finally willing to call me senior?" The crazy old freak stretched out his hand and pushed his long hair to the back. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Qin Wentian as he smiled, "So what if you have to restart your cultivation? Do you know how many characters didn't hesitate to reincarnate? Yet, they didn't have such good fortune like you. You have a powerful soul and experience, and with the advantage of astral souls, how fast would your cultivation speed be? As for your cultivation base, with your previous insights, would there still be any obstacles before the immortal emperor realm? "
"Mhm." Qin Wentian nodded.
"Before this, did you sense the ninth heavenly layer?" The crazy old man laughed.
Qin Wentian stared at him as he replied, "The 8th heavenly layer."
This time around, it was the crazy old man's turn to be stunned. After that, he started laughing maniacally again.
"The 8th heavenly layer, my first constellation is from the 8th heavenly layer. In the future, all my astral souls will originate from the 8th heavenly layer and I can choose them again."
