Chapter 97 Reincarnation The ancestor of the true dragon and the ancient snake, Yan Zi, who possesses these two identities, will be able to integrate the two great clans of the true dragon and the ancient snake. Once the dragon and snake tribes join forces, Fuxi would not be surprised even if they eventually dominate the ancient world and surpass all other tribes. These two tribes belong to yin and yang respectively, one is extremely hard and yang, and the other is extremely yin and soft, so they have such potential. Yanzi's life, consciousness, and freedom came from Fuxi and Nuwa, and Fuxi and Nuwa also caused Yanzi to lose the treasures of heaven and earth that should have belonged to him. The cause and effect and grudges are intertwined here, and even Fuxi cannot figure it out and doesn't know how to resolve it. In the past, Fuxi had a true spirit diagram that was integrated with his own origin, which could block the breath of reincarnation in his soul, making Yanzi unable to perceive the cause and effect between her and himself. Ever since Fuxi disassembled the True Spirit Diagram and created his own five True Spirit Origins, Fuxi knew that sooner or later he would come face to face with Yan Zi. However, Fuxi did not expect that this day would come so early. Nuwa's path was different from Fuxi's. The map of mountains and seas was still merging with Nuwa's origin, so even though Yanzi had known Nuwa for a long time, he did not notice anything unusual. In Yanzi's cognition, the true nature of Snake Ancestor and the original status of Snake Ancestor have always been in Gu Jian's hands, just as Yanzi originally thought that the true nature of Dragon Ancestor and the original status of Dragon Ancestor have always been in Tai Yu's hands. Yanzi's personality is different from Fuxi and Nuwa. Yanzi cannot understand why Fuxi and Nuwa would give up the true nature of dragons and snakes and the status of the original ancestors of dragons and snakes in their hands and choose to follow their own path instead of inheriting Pangu's path. "I don't want to care about the cause and effect between you and me now. There will be a time to sort it out in the future. I will settle the cause and effect and repay the kindness."
Yan Zi looked at Fuxi, the complex look in his eyes slowly faded away, and his aura continued to increase. "You said before that I'm no match for you alone." At Yan Zi's command, the army of the Sword Crab Clan also retreated. With Fuxi around, the Sword Crab Clan could not wipe out the Azure Dragon lineage, but Yan Zi still decided to take action. She wanted to test out Fuxi's approximate strength. The Tianji map on his left hand was flashing with myriad orderly spiritual lights, and the Xuanzi rope on his right hand was rippling with layers of space-time ripples. The two innate spiritual treasures slowly merged, and thousands of stars followed behind Yanzi, with his phoenix eyes full of wind and snow: "I don't believe this." The Xuan Zi rope split into twelve strands, and with the obscure and majestic power of time and space, it sealed the time and space around Fuxi. All things in the Tianji map appeared, and the light of order evolved into the Yin-Yang and Five Elements divine light, like seven sword lights, slashing towards the sea where Fuxi was. "Your consciousness was born not long ago, and you must have been reincarnated more than a thousand times. You have experienced reincarnation, so you should understand the impact of reincarnation on a cultivator's mind and spirit." "You might as well guess how many times I reincarnated in the cycle of reincarnation before I finally transcended it." In Fuxi's eyes, the five sword forces took shape in an instant, the Dongjun sword was unsheathed an inch, and thousands of golden and jade flames easily cut through the Yin-Yang and Five Elements divine light. The crystal sword light just twisted and ignored the restraint of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Divine Light on the Geng and Xin Qi, and cut off the seven magnificent sword lights that reached the sky. A ray of sword light fell, and in an instant the light swept across the abyss. Twelve crisp sounds of metal and stone rang out, and the twelve golden ropes that were separated from Xuan Zisuo were easily defeated by the sword light slashed by Fuxi. The power of time and space on the Xuan Zisuo fluctuated, and a crack in the intersection of time and space was pulled open by the Xuan Zisuo, and the crack in time and space swallowed up the sword light that Fuxi cut down. Yanzi's phoenix eyes narrowed as she looked at the Yin-Yang Five Elements Divine Light and Xuanzi Suo that were easily defeated by Fuxi. For the second time, she felt tremendous pressure from a cultivator of the same level. The Fuxi in front of her gave her the feeling that he was not much weaker than Dihong. The Dongjun Sword that was one inch out of the sheath at Fuxi's waist slowly closed. Looking at Yanzi, Fuxi said, "37,625,823 times, this is the number of times I have reincarnated." "More than 30 million times, impossible!" His pupils suddenly contracted, Yan Zi looked at Fuxi, recalled the endless tribulations he had experienced in his past reincarnation, and subconsciously opened his mouth to refute. However, looking at Fuxi's calm eyes, Yanzi fell into silence. As a person who had personally experienced more than 1,700 reincarnations, Yanzi was well aware of the horror of reincarnation. Once entering the cycle of reincarnation, one's true self will be dismantled and obscured by the cycle of reincarnation, leaving only the purest bit of spiritual light that will be immersed in countless world communities. In the endless cycle of life and death again and again, one will gradually forget oneself, and eventually sink into the cycle of reincarnation, completely becoming a part of it. Yan Zi knew very well that if Fuxi and Nuwa had not transcended the cycle of reincarnation, causing a slight omission in the origin of reincarnation, she would not have been able to escape from the cycle of reincarnation. Even after only one thousand seven hundred reincarnations, Yanzi has already lost some of his memories from when he was just born. In Yanzi's opinion, it is impossible for anyone in the vast universe to experience more than 30 million reincarnations and still maintain his or her self, let alone break through the cycle of reincarnation, understand his or her true self, and transcend it.
Just looking at Fuxi's calm eyes, Yan Zi knew that there was no need for Fuxi to lie to her. The fact that Fuxi could transcend reincarnation was enough to explain everything. After more than thirty million times of reincarnation and death, Yan Zi could not imagine how high Fuxi's Taoist realm was. Yan Zi was able to advance to the Taiyi realm in less than 100,000 years after escaping from the cycle of reincarnation. This was not only because of Yan Zi's own noble birth, but also because of the profound Taoism and vision that Yan Zi had honed through thousands of reincarnations in the cycle of reincarnation. Fuxi experienced more than 30 million reincarnations, and the world and the great principles of heaven and earth that he saw far exceeded those of the innate gods and demons at the same level, even surpassing Daluo Daojun and even Hunyuan Daluo Daojun. As the spirit of Pangu's essence that existed at the beginning of reincarnation, Yanzi holds some secrets about reincarnation, which even Fuxi and Nuwa are not aware of. Yan Zi knew that the endless communities of worlds in the cycle of reincarnation were not illusory, nor were they worlds on different timelines projected from the origin of the great universe, but were projections from many different worlds in the Sea of Chaos. Reincarnation was not born out of the underworld, but the underworld was born out of the overflowing power of reincarnation. The origins of eighteen of Pangu's eighty-one incarnations, including Taiyuan, Qiuying, Jiangdi, Yuanchi, etc., converged to give rise to this reincarnation, which can be regarded as the most precious treasure in the great world. The essence of Pangu's eighteen incarnations was exhausted during the reincarnation, leaving only a trace of Taiyuan's will remaining in the reincarnation, and was mistaken by outsiders as the creator of reincarnation. In fact, there is only one creator of reincarnation, and that is Pangu. The true nature of dragons and snakes and the status of the original ancestor of dragons and snakes are also left by Pangu.
