"Because I did not discover you or the tiny 'viruses' like 'you' in the last few reincarnations. Instead, I already noticed you a long, long time ago, when you couldn't have imagined it."
"Li Yao," the will of earth said with a smile. "Like I said, I am Li Yao, but I am far more than Li Yao. So, it is not an invasion. You and I have been one since the beginning. We grew up together and created the dazzling miracles together. Eventually, we returned to this place together, to the mother body of our minds."
"What!"
The Red Pole Star was dumbfounded. The more he recalled, the more his soul shivered. In the end, the fortress of his soul almost collapsed. "Are you saying — Are you saying that —"
"If you haven't discovered when exactly I snuck into Li Yao's soul, I'm rather disappointed. You are not qualified to communicate with a life form on the intellectual level at all when you are so stupid."
The will of earth projected a complicated stream of information deep inside the Red Pole Star's brain. Every spray of the information stream contained countless vivid pictures that were even more vivid than reality, allowing the Red Pole Star to understand the truth that happened somewhere in the universe a long time ago in the most intuitive way.
Therefore, the Red Pole Star saw a blue planet floating in the dark universe — Earth at the end of a certain reincarnation.
He also saw a fuzzy shadow that was entirely made of fury and determination. It was exactly Li Yao, the heroic spirit that was awakened in his previous life.
"The Vulture Plan has not failed yet. I am still alive! Even if I escape to the edge of the grand universe and experience ten thousand years of pain and suffering, I will come back one day, complete the Vulture Plan, and destroy Earth! "
The Red Pole Star seemed to have heard the cry of Li Yao, the heroic spirit, through the vacuum.
Then, the heroic spirit turned into a streak of brilliance that tore apart the universe, crossed the stars, and disappeared on the other side of time and space.
It was something that the Red Pole Star had known for a long time.
It was also the 'whole truth' that he believed to be true.
However, in the past, he had never seen that a tiny silver spot of light popped up from Earth soon after "Heroic Spirit Li Yao" escaped from the Earth of the previous reincarnation. As if it did not have the concept of gravity and speed, it circled around the coordinates that "Heroic Spirit Li Yao" had just stopped three times. Then, it caught up with "Heroic Spirit Li Yao" and followed "Heroic Spirit Li Yao" to the edge of the grand universe together with "Heroic Spirit Li Yao"!
"This — This is —"
The Red Pole Star could barely breathe.
"Are you really so naïve as to think that the 'Vulture's War' will cause such a heavy blow to me that I cannot lock onto the soul information of a regular earthling — or in your words, a heroic spirit?"
"No," the will of earth said casually, "if I really did not care about the cost, I could've stopped or even destroyed the heroic spirit that escaped, but it was unnecessary. Besides, the same reincarnation had been repeated countless times, and the war on the grand universe level had lasted for too long. Perhaps the escaped heroic spirit could've triggered a series of interesting chain reactions and brought about minor changes that even I did not expect.
"Therefore, I did not stop him. I merely split a strand of my soul … To use a term that you can understand, I split a strand of my soul fragment and followed him.
"Of course, you can also consider my soul pieces as a certain smart, fully-automatic weapon that can automatically absorb all the information on the battlefield and transform into the most suitable form according to the dynamic information of the enemy and myself so that the mission could be accomplished in the most ingenious way.
"Although it was too far away for me to directly control the 'soul weapon', I believed that it would not disappoint me. I set up a double mission for it. First of all, it was to test whether or not the escaped heroic spirit had enough potential. If it failed the test, it was to simply erase him and replace him to explore the edge of the grand universe.
"If the heroic spirit passed the test and proved his value, I would simply melt into the soul of the heroic spirit and provide him with enough strength and protection so that he could shine in the dark universe that I had never explored before. Maybe, one day in the future, he would bring me unexpected conveniences.
"As it turned out, you, you, or rather, 'we' did a great job that far exceeded my imagination at the beginning. When I read everything that Vulture Li Yao did at the edge of the cosmos not long ago, I was still surprised that I hadn't felt for a long time despite the mottled, messy pieces of information.
"What, you still haven't guessed when and how I snuck into your soul?"
In the picture displayed by the will of Earth, the Tian Yuan Realm, the Xing Yao Federation, and Floating Spear City appeared.
It was a long time ago, when the Tian Yuan Realm and the Blood Demon Sector were at war before the 'New Federation' was established.
It was also the time when 'Li Yao' had just been teleported to the Tian Yuan Realm and struggled to grow up in the magical equipment graveyard as' Vulture Li Yao ', only to be despised and bullied as a high school student.
The Red Pole Star saw the familiar magical equipment graveyard, the Rising Sun Village, the high-speed crystal rail between the two places, and the culvert below the crystal rail.
He also saw the young 'Vulture Li Yao' walking to the culvert alone with his hands in his pockets.
At this moment, the silver light spot that had followed him all the way from Earth to the Tian Yuan Realm fell from the sky and turned into an old man in ragged clothes on the rail.
Then, the old man was blown away by the high-speed crystal train brutally.
Although the old man was shattered into pieces, he turned into a translucent ghost and followed the young man relentlessly. Then, he found a suitable opportunity and crawled into the body of 'Vulture Li Yao'!
The Red Pole Star was almost completely frozen from his soul to his flesh.
"Ou Yezi!"
He was silent for a long time before he struggled to utter the two words.
"That's right. You should have thought about it earlier. For the head of a refining sect in the era of ancient cultivators, Ou Yezi's strength is really too strong. So strong that … it doesn't seem real."
The will of Earth said coldly.
The Red Pole Star was dazed for a long time.
He understood what the will of Earth meant.
The countless puzzles that had once lingered in his heart all exploded like exploding nuts. Unfortunately, it was too late for him to realize it!
When the Red Pole Star was still part of Li Yao, he had struggled with the issue countless times.
There were indeed a lot of illogical things about the 'Hundred Smelting Clan' Ou Yezi.
First of all, even if the Hundred Smelting Clan was the strongest refining sect in the age of ancient Cultivators, the comprehensive level of its training technology should not have been much higher than the average level of the entire age. As for the so-called 'time-traveling magical equipment or rune arrays', not just human beings at that time, even the Pangu civilization, the hundred pioneer civilizations before the Pangu civilization, and even the refugees of the Primeval Civilization had never created them.
No matter how talented Ou Yezi was, how did he travel through time with the crude magical equipment and the knowledge of training techniques that were still in ignorance?
It must be noted that the facilities that the refugees of the Primeval Civilization left in the primeval relics could only freeze the time in a small area for ten thousand years at best. It was much worse than Ou Yezi, who could travel through time freely!
In the memory pieces that the Red Pole Star acquired, the development of training technology in the entire Pangu universe had always been excellent and progressive. From the Primeval Civilization to the pioneer civilization, from the pioneer civilization to the Pangu civilization, and from the Pangu civilization to the civilization of mankind, the gap between them was not huge. Ou Yezi's time-traveling technology, on the other hand, had risen abruptly and surpassed all the species and civilizations in history. It was unreasonably strong.
Alright. Even if he was really so strong, a second contradiction had occurred. How could such an unparalleled expert, who was superior to the Pangu, the pioneer civilization, and even the Primeval Civilization, have been killed by a crystal train the moment he traveled to the age of the Cultivators?
Even if he had the excuse that 'time-traveling was harmful to his body', it was still too absurd!
Even if he had really been killed by a train, his soul would still be unbelievably strong. How could he have been swallowed by the young Vulture who was still ignorant at that time? Was it because Li Yao's soul was from Earth? It was too simple!
Even if everything was true, and Ou Yezi was really capable of time-traveling, and he was really killed by a train the moment he arrived, and his soul was so feeble that it would suffer a backlash when he possessed a young man's body, the most unbelievable question was why a 'tree of soul' appeared deep inside Li Yao's brain after he swallowed Ou Yezi's remaining soul, as if it had been delivered to his door for him to train and improve his capability.
Come to think of it, the whole thing did not make any scientific sense at all!
In the memories of the Red Pole Star, Li Yao had considered the question before.
However, Ou Yezi's remnant soul had always stayed in the depths of his brain. Not only had it not caused the slightest bit of trouble, it had even provided great help for his series of adventures, leveling up, and battles. Together with the series of schemes, challenges, and disasters, Li Yao was overwhelmed and exhausted. As time went by, Li Yao threw the matter to the back of his head, and the habit became second nature.
"So, there is no Ou Yezi at all?"
The Red Pole Star asked solemnly.
"Of course, Ou Yezi, leader of the Hundred Smelting Clan, exists. Also, he had a failed experiment tens of thousands of years ago in the Pangu universe. As a result, his headquarters was blown up, and he died without a proper burial, too."
