Chapter 210: The Qilin Child of the Xiang Family
Talent points.
Secret Realm rules.
Distribution of echoes.
These are the main tasks to complete in the rebirth place. After everything finished, Yun Ye began to recall knowledge.
The knowledge he hastily scanned from the prestigious family quickly came back to him, imprinted in his soul.
At the same time, the Rebirth Book revealed a lot of additional information…
His soul was completely reset, with no extra residue, even purer than almost all newborns.
This is a characteristic of rebirth.
Only in this way can one escape the comprehensive reckoning of the heavenly rules and continuously reincarnate.
But a question arose: why did Yun Ye, who clearly had memories, maintain the status of having all residues cleared?
As the holder of the Rebirth Book, Yun Ye had certainly contemplated this question, but he couldn’t find an answer.
Now Yun Ye understood that it was the Rebirth Book, this treasured artifact, that twisted the rules, recorded his memories, and even preserved all his personalities and emotions. This was its most essential ability and the mystery of reincarnation.
Now, as the Dao Artifact expanded its range, the abilities of the Rebirth Book were gradually unlocked.
This ability originally could only be used in the rebirth place, but now it was no longer necessary; it could awaken sealed memories in reality at any time.
What made Yun Ye feel most wondrous was…
This complete memory, aside from being useful for learning, primarily serves to break the memory barriers blocking the Heavenly Path, right?
The various abilities of the Rebirth Book corresponded to the despairing barriers of reality.
"The ascent of the Heavenly Path—without memories, how could anyone possibly uncover its secrets?"
"Future Path Lord must have seen all this through the Future Spirit Law, which is why he walked the path of invincibility, right?"
Yun Ye recalled the situation he faced during the ascent of the Heavenly Path, and his mood inevitably became heavy.
The ascent of the Heavenly Path was just the first stage, yet Yun Ye already sensed unimaginable malice.
This was truly not a barrier that an ordinary mortal could cross. Rather than attempting to ascend the Heavenly Path, it’s better to cultivate on one’s own; even without the Heavenly Path, one might still reach a higher realm.
In contrast, the difficulty of ascending the Heavenly Path is even greater!
Here, Yun Ye had to correct his past misconceptions. He had once said that every Spiritual Law family must have a heroic ancestor who created the Origin Law to open the Heavenly Path.
Now he had to revise that: the true reality should be that Spiritual Law families accumulate experiences with significant sacrifices over generations to optimize their bloodlines; perhaps it takes a few generations, perhaps even dozens, and eventually, when the bloodline reaches its peak and good fortune falls upon someone, that person becomes the founder of the family.
As for how high the difficulty truly is…
Baishi Town initially had only the Ji family as a Spiritual Law family, and after a thousand years of development, it still only had seven prestigious families in the Heavenly Path, with the level of entrenchment being nearly impossible to describe.
Though this reality is harsh, Yun Ye had no choice but to admit it.
—Personal wisdom cannot compare to the accumulated knowledge of the cultivation world over tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, of years.
He must obtain the ascending bloodline, then acquire systematic knowledge; otherwise, relying solely on his own research might require dozens of times the effort to reverse-engineer a complete path.
“Tomorrow, come back now; it’s time for rebirth.”
Yun Ye closed the Rebirth Book and said,
"Good."
Ming Ri nodded.
He transformed into water and fire, disappearing without a trace.
In the next moment, Yun Ye lay back, though this action held little meaning, it was followed by endless darkness, a sensation that suited him well.
Yun Ye felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring, his thoughts floating skyward before plunging down suddenly.
"Wah wah wah!"
On the fourth day of April, amidst the hot sound of cicadas, the concubine of the head of the Xiang Family gave birth to a Qilin child.
This child was born with a Spiritual Eye, and upon opening his eyes at birth, he dimmed the surroundings within a hundred meters, possessing a talent like no other!
The Xiang Family had long been in seclusion, so even the elder who wanted to break into the law realms was stirred and emerged from closed doors to bestow a name:
Xiang Ying!
…
The mansion of the Xiang Family covered a vast area, with a garden that could be called expansive.
Various extraordinary flowers, plants, and trees were planted in the garden, where spiritual light burst forth, remarkably exceptional.
The cold-faced woman in fine clothes, Xiang Dong, held the baby boy, standing on a bridge over a pool filled with many red fish.
She pointed at the pool, and one red fish floated up, wrapped in water, landing before the baby.
The baby boy appeared to be only half a year old, with ice-blue eyes, clear as if reflecting the sky.
At that moment, his pupils were projecting the red fish before him, changing as the fish swam.
"Xiang Ying, you possess unparalleled natural talent, destined for great things in the future, but all talents need to be developed. It has been too long; you should not remain stagnant."
Xiang Dong extended her hand, grasping the raindrop-shaped ornament on the baby’s forehead. As she pulled with great force, fierce spiritual light flickered, resisting her, not allowing her to remove it.
But this was merely a sealing artifact, which did not have strong protective measures, and was finally torn away by Xiang Dong.
Once the sealing artifact left the boy’s body, his dual pupils appeared to be dipped in ink, as black and white colors spread out.
At the same time, within a hundred meters of his gaze, the area was instantly shrouded in gray, turning into a realm of silence.
The once lively red fish lost its color, freezing in mid-air.
Gazing at this scene, which could only be described as crafted by divine hands, Xiang Dong’s lips curled into a smile.
Then,
"Hahaha! No doubt a child born with dual attributes and a Spiritual Eye! This kind of power, when has the Xiang Family ever had? Xiang Ying, you will surely become a remarkable talent, leading the Xiang Family to prosperity!"
She couldn’t help but laugh freely.
This statement was absolutely true.
The four guards behind her, witnessing this scene, felt the exact same way.
This child is destined to become a remarkable talent!
They had never seen such an extraordinary child; just born, he already possessed the power to silence all things!
This power was felt as a fatal threat even by the guards who had mastered Walking Law.
If hit accidentally, certain death awaited!
For a child who had yet to begin training the Qi Cultivation Technique, to hold such terrifying power was simply hard to believe!
They quietly lowered their heads, suppressing their shock, as the rise of the Xiang Family was also good for them!
"Mother, please return the sealing artifact to me; not being able to see is very inconvenient."
The baby boy closed his eyes, and the power that had frozen everything gradually faded, easing the danger around everyone.
"Xiang Ying, you must quickly master your eyes; if you cannot control your own power, the clan will be very disappointed." The woman’s smile faded.
The baby boy, keeping his eyes shut, looked at the woman and repeated, "Sealing artifact."
"—" The woman’s expression at that moment was not just devoid of smiles; it became completely stiff.
She never expected that her authority could not even control a child not yet one year old.
It could only be said that he was truly a peerless Qilin child.
A concubine giving birth to such a genius—what a miracle.
"Madam Dong, the head of the family has instructed not to allow the Third Young Master to use this power to avoid drawing attention. Given the commotion, it’s best to quickly reseal him for cleaning, to prevent outsiders from spying on secrets."
One guard, very attuned to the atmosphere, immediately provided an exit for Xiang Dong.
"I understand, withdraw!"
Xiang Dong scolded, then her cold demeanor softened slightly, gently speaking to the child, "Xiang Ying, Mother only wants you to control your own power soon. Your strength is immense but will attract countless gazes and fears. Genius is just a name; only by growing can it become reality."
"Mother worries about you; she does not wish for your downfall."
Xiang Dong reattached the headpiece for the child.
As the child opened his eyes, the gray and white colors quickly faded. He said, "Thank you, Mother, for your concern; I will master it quickly."
"Good!"
Xiang Dong received a satisfactory reply and took the child away, with four guards following closely behind.
