Enlightenment: Attaining the Dao at Age 8 - Chapter 62 - 59: Second Reincarnation, Initiate
Chapter 62: Chapter 59: Second Reincarnation, Initiate
Just one day had passed, yet standing beside Li Chang’an were the President of the Linjiang Reincarnator Association and the Governor of Xiangnan Province—dignitaries he wouldn’t even dare to dream of…
’The old saying “A farmer in the morning, in the Emperor’s hall by evening” was just like this!’
…
After the three landed, Principal Wang hurried over to greet them. With a complicated expression, he first glanced at Li Chang’an, then at Su Ruobing and Hu Xiuyuan, who were with him.
’He was absolutely stunned.’
When he first received Su Ruobing’s message, he thought he was hallucinating. He never imagined that in less than a day, this recent graduate would attract the Governor himself!
Amid his nervousness, Principal Wang couldn’t help but feel a thrill of excitement—after getting to meet the Governor, he would have bragging rights for the rest of his life!
Hu Xiuyuan was quite amiable. After glancing at the surrounding students, whose eyes were gleaming with excitement, he smiled. “Principal Wang, your students are quite spirited!”
Principal Wang suppressed his elation and replied cautiously, “You flatter us, Lord Governor. The children are just young and energetic!”
Hu Xiuyuan wasn’t in the mood for excessive pleasantries. After a few perfunctory remarks, he got straight to the point. “Principal Wang, please provide us with some recording equipment. Also, clear the area of the spectating students. We need to ensure the field is completely quiet and undisturbed for the next hour!”
Upon receiving the order, Wang Liguo turned and instructed the reluctant students to return to their dormitories.
To prevent anyone from getting close, he also summoned the school’s entire security team to maintain order on-site.
The recording equipment was soon delivered.
Hu Xiuyuan spoke up, “Li, you may begin.”
Li Chang’an nodded and immediately began to circulate the Basic Martial Arts Truth. This was the first time he had run the cultivation technique since improving it.
Yet, the energy flowing through him felt perfectly natural.
After all, he had created this cultivation technique himself. Naturally, no one understood it better than he did.
After personally witnessing Li Chang’an demonstrate the cultivation technique and recording all the movements and pathways, Hu Xiuyuan marveled, “This cultivation technique seems simple and crude on the surface, but it’s actually masterfully constructed and exquisitely intricate. It contains numerous insights into the connection between heaven, earth, and the human body…”
“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never have imagined its creator to be such a young prodigy. It seems your first reincarnation was incredibly fruitful, Li!”
Li Chang’an replied humbly, “It’s a minor accomplishment, hardly worth mentioning.”
After sighing in admiration for some time, Hu Xiuyuan left in a hurry without staying any longer. He was clearly eager to pass the cultivation technique further up the chain of command.
The field suddenly felt deserted.
Only Li Chang’an and Su Ruobing, who wore a complex expression, remained.
After a moment of silence, Su Ruobing spoke. “I never expected the Evolution Path you uploaded from your first reincarnation would cause such a stir. It seems my previous offer was too low… When do you plan on going to your territory?”
Li Chang’an gave a noncommittal response to her praise, glancing at his watch. “The day after tomorrow. I still have a few things to take care of in Linjiang.”
“Contact me directly on your communication terminal if you run into any issues. It’s getting late, so I won’t disturb your rest.” Su Ruobing nodded, preparing to leave.
However, after taking a few steps, she suddenly turned back. “I’ll have a little surprise for you in the territory the day after tomorrow. I hope you like it.”
With that said, she lingered no more.
In a few flashes of movement, she vanished into the night sky…
Watching them depart, Li Chang’an reined in his scattered thoughts. His gaze swept over the familiar yet foreign school field. After a long silence, he too quickly departed.
’Finally, all the messy business is taken care of.’
Li Chang’an returned to his room and declared, “Imprint, I want to begin a new reincarnation!”
Both Su Ruobing and Hu Xiuyuan had been quite friendly toward Li Chang’an.
Despite this, the terrifying, barely-suppressed aura emanating from them—like that of a primordial beast—still placed immense pressure on him.
Clearly, his current strength was still far too weak. Even with these powerhouses deliberately suppressing their auras, he still felt an overwhelming sense of oppression!
Li Chang’an hated the feeling of being overpowered.
Therefore, he was desperate to become stronger.
[Welcome to the Rebirth Space!]
[Official Reincarnator: Li Chang’an]
[Personal Reincarnation ID: 31402]
[Evolution Level: F]
[Citizen Rights: None]
[Exclusive Talent: Heaven-defying Comprehension (Unique)]
[Initiate Consciousness Rebirth?]
A series of messages appeared before his eyes.
Without hesitation, Li Chang’an confirmed his choice.
The next moment, a bizarre sensation of his soul being pulled from his body washed over him. When Li Chang’an opened his eyes again, he discovered he had arrived in a hazy Chaotic Space.
[Acquiring Reincarnation Data… Data Acquired!]
[Loading Rebirth World… World Loaded!]
[Matching Character Profile… Profile Matched!]
[World Background/Predestined Fate: The Dayan Dynasty, founded upon the Martial Dao, has existed for over 1,300 years. By the reign of the current Emperor, the dynasty’s power has waned. Martial Arts Sects across the land have declared their independence, encroaching on imperial territory and giving rise to chaos.]
[Age 0: You are born in the Harem of the Dayan Dynasty, a Prince conceived from a clandestine affair between the Emperor and a Palace Maid!]
[Unfortunately, Princes and Princesses are a dime a dozen in Emperor Dayan’s Harem. Your birth receives little attention from your father, the Emperor. No one cares whether you live or die, except for your mother.]
[Age 1: Due to your lack of favor, you are driven out of the Imperial Palace by schemers. Your mother, fearing for your safety, dares not reveal your heritage. She relies on the embroidery skills she learned in the palace to eke out a meager living for you.]
[Age 2: As you grow, you begin to show extraordinary talent. You are adept in both scholarly and martial pursuits and are exceptionally bright. Your uniqueness attracts unwanted attention.]
[Age 3: You die.]
[Your brilliance gave you life; your brilliance brought you death.]
Reading the information, Li Chang’an’s heart stirred.
’There’s very little background information for this reincarnation, and the predestined fate seems remarkably simple.’
’And yet, his identity was that of a nation’s Prince!’
From a certain perspective, he was born at the finish line that many others spend their whole lives trying to reach.
If he could make good use of his status as a Prince, Li Chang’an could legitimately ascend to the throne.
Once he controlled a nation, with his Heaven-defying Comprehension, his progress in both his Cultivation Techniques and his strength would be ten, even a hundred times faster than in his previous life!
His status as a Prince was the cause of his fated death.
But compared to the arduous fate of his humble birth in his last life, what was a little difficulty like this? Just an insignificant squall!
As he sorted through his thoughts, a flicker of excitement ignited within him.
Of course, he couldn’t fully judge the situation yet. He would have to enter the Rebirth World to get a clearer picture.
“Let’s do this. Second reincarnation, begin!”
As his words fell, a blinding white light enveloped everything his senses could perceive.
