Chapter 404: Living a Second Life

In the cold night, the dark moon hung high in the sky. The stars were speckled and silver lights drooped.

The mortal realm.

It had been a long time since Lin Jiufeng left. At this moment, he passed through the passageway between the Spell Realm and the mortal realm with his remnant soul and descended into the mortal realm in the dark night.

It was already the latter half of the night. It was silent. There were only specks of starlight in the sky. The vast mortal realm had already fallen into silence at this moment.

In the day, the 70,000 troops crossed the borders and split into seven directions, wanting to sweep through the mortal realm. But they were directly killed by Black Skeleton, White Skeleton, and the powerhouses of the mortal realm as well as the five-colored skeletons that returned from the Death Realm.

The immortal energy in the mortal realm had increased tremendously. It was completely different from when Lin Jiufeng died in battle.

Lin Jiufeng didn’t inform anyone about his return. Black Skeleton didn’t know, and White Skeleton didn’t know either.

He walked straight to the imperial capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty.

That was the place where he had fought and also where his body was buried.

The once prosperous imperial capital was now desolate.

Standing within a hundred miles of the imperial capital, ruins could be seen with the naked eye. The imperial capital in the center was surrounded by a huge array. It was the passageway that Lin Jiufeng used his own body as the array core back then to suppress the Seven Races of the Ancient Age.

Hundreds of Immortal King powerhouses had died here!

The baleful energy and the passageway that the Celestial Race had opened were all blocked in this array formation.

“Now that I look at it again, everything has changed. The most prosperous and largest imperial capital back then has also become deserted. Time is really the most terrifying thing.” Lin Jiufeng murmured softly. He stared at the land shrouded in primal chaos in the distance without hesitation and walked in.

The array formation that everyone in the world was afraid of and the killing intent that filled the array formation was harmless to Lin Jiufeng.

They even felt incomparably close to him.

Because everything here was created by him.

“Bai Mao’er shouldn’t be here anymore.” Lin Jiufeng closed his eyes. His consciousness spread and shrouded this huge imperial capital. He didn’t find any traces of Bai Mao’er.

Back then, when the Light of the Homes sent Bai Mao’er out of the Primal Chaos Array Formation, Lin Jiufeng was already mentally prepared.

It was understandable that she wasn’t in the imperial capital now. She had disappeared into the sea of people.

“But it’s okay. I will find you,” Lin Jiufeng said with a firm gaze.

“But the most important thing now is to revive myself. At this moment, my remnant soul is bathed in the blood of the Ancestral Dragon. Together with the flesh of the Ancestral Dragon that I swallowed previously, once I revive and gain a second life, I will definitely advance by leaps and bounds.”

Lin Jiufeng’s goal was very clear. He would put Bai Mao’er aside for now. She could take care of herself. The most important thing now was to let himself be reborn and become the guardian of the mortal realm.

In the center of the imperial capital, the array formation shrouded the land. Primal chaos fog shrouded the land, and no stars could be seen. There was only darkness and coldness, like a vast black hole that devoured everything.

This was the Life-Reversing Great Dao Array Formation from back then. There were even a few peerless magic treasures floating inside.

General Appointing Platform, Sword of the Holy Church, Light of the Homes.

These were the three most powerful magic treasures of Lin Jiufeng back then. They all fell into the array formation that was shrouded in the primal chaos fog after his death, losing their luster.

In this endless darkness and coldness, Lin Jiufeng’s remnant soul wasn’t disturbed. He walked inside. His gaze looked into the distance. At the end of the darkness, a weak candle flame was flickering.

The Light of the Homes!

Back then, the Light of the Homes had already given birth to its own intelligence. Lin Jiufeng thought that after all these years, it had long left the Primal Chaos Array Formation.

But now that his remnant soul had returned, the Light of the Homes was still in the distant place that once belonged to the Cold Palace. It was quietly guarding the place and swaying there.

The Light of the Homes back then accompanied Lin Jiufeng as he became stronger and stronger.

The Light of the Homes only appeared a few times, but every time it made a move, it would definitely alert the world.

This was a magic treasure with infinite possibilities.

It was also a magic treasure that could absorb energy and grow on its own.

“Old friend, long time no see!” Lin Jiufeng stood still and said with a smile.

The Light of the Homes also sensed him. Or rather, when Lin Jiufeng’s remnant soul entered the mortal realm through the Spell Realm’s passageway, the Light of the Homes had already sensed him.

At this moment, the Light of the Homes flickered slightly, emitting a happy mood.

Boom!

In the very next moment, the Light of the Homes shook slightly and a sea of flames covered the sky.

The entire Primal Chaos Array Formation was instantly burned to ashes in the sea of fire.

Lin Jiufeng was shocked. The speed of the Light of the Homes’ growth far exceeded his imagination. At this moment, with a slight tremble, it burned the supreme array formation that blocked the Celestial Race back then to ashes.

The sea of flames spread to Lin Jiufeng’s side. Endless energy and surging flames all declared how terrifying the Light of the Homes was.

But Lin Jiufeng didn’t feel any danger. Instead, he felt very comfortable.

To him, this sea of flames wasn’t a crisis, but a huge opportunity.

This was an opportunity given to him by the Light of the Homes.

“Did you prepare this for me?” Lin Jiufeng asked softly.

The Light of the Homes swayed silently and floated closer to Lin Jiufeng.

“Bathed and born in flames, Great Emperor Jiufeng is invincible!”

The Light of the Homes said softly.

This was the gift it prepared for Lin Jiufeng.

A corpse that had never rotted floated in the sea of flames.

Around this corpse was a stone platform that floated and sank. It looked very ordinary without any aura to speak of.

This… was the General Appointing Platform.

On the other side, a sword was lying quietly on the edge of the corpse.

Sword of the Holy Church.

These two magic treasures were Lin Jiufeng’s greatest source of confidence in killing enemies of a higher realm than him.

But with his death, they also restrained their power and quietly stayed here.

“Alright. My flesh and blood will be reborn. I, Lin Jiufeng, shall live a second life!”

Lin Jiufeng walked forward. His remnant soul corresponded to the corpse that never rotted.

Rumble!

The sea of flames seemed to be about to erupt, and thunder constantly sounded.

Lin Jiufeng closed his eyes. His remnant soul slowly floated and tapped on the everlasting corpse. In the very next moment, he was like a star that resonated with everything in the world, allowing the divine thoughts of order condensed from the endless nomological powers to interweave and pierce through this flame-like world.

The remnant soul fused with the corpse.

At this moment, the corpse erupted with a terrifying aura. It was like a huge mountain was slowly recovering, suppressing the world until it rumbled as if it was about to sink.

The 3,000 Great Dao that he had comprehended previously transformed into 3,000 strands of light that drooped down and shrouded Lin Jiufeng’s corpse.

The power of space and time, the power of heaven and earth, the power of all things, the various techniques, and the various Dao were all inside.

At this moment, even the sea of flames emitted by the Light of the Homes was absorbed by Lin Jiufeng’s corpse.

The imperial capital’s array formation that scared the people of the world and made them afraid to approach disappeared without a trace.

The mountains and rivers were magnificent, the spiritual energy was dense, and they transformed into immortal energy. They were extremely lively, very suitable for cultivation.

Lin Jiufeng was as calm as a rock. His entire body was crystal clear, emitting a dignified aura that revealed a holy radiance.

His dead body was slowly recovering. The world, the sun, the moon, and the essence of spiritual energy all revolved around him.

At this moment, a mysterious ancient word fell. It was as if it was made of divine gold, resplendent and dazzling. It entered Lin Jiufeng’s body and transformed into the call of an ancient sage that brought with it a boundless feeling.

At this moment, there were Buddhas chanting, ancient wizards speaking, ancient demons shouting angrily, and the Lord of the Court of the Gods preaching…

These voices sounded in the past, in the present, and in the future. They crossed the prehistoric times of the universe and condensed the energies of the world. They brought with them ancient words one after another. They were densely packed and scattered with immortal radiance, making Lin Jiufeng look extraordinary. This corpse that had been dead for a long time was slowly recovering.

In his body, there were countless doors, as if they corresponded to the various worlds and were endlessly changing. The path of cultivation was to open these doors one after another and release one’s original self.

The originally ordinary General Appointing Platform was also trembling slightly at this moment. It slowly recovered and lifted Lin Jiufeng’s corpse.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, countless voices united and ultimately transformed into a dignified voice. It was incomparably vast, like a demonic god from the ancient era chanting scriptures, dignified and divine.

At this moment, Lin Jiufeng’s corpse also opened its eyes and saw a brand new world.

He gained a second life.

At this moment, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth rumbled. The light of the sun and moon shone brightly. Lin Jiufeng became increasingly dignified and divine. He stood quietly in the air, motionless. A bridge of life appeared behind him, clear, bright, resplendent, and connected to an unknown place.

Lin Jiufeng looked at the opposite side of this bridge. It was also a world, different from the vastness of the mortal realm. That world was much smaller, and it emitted endless death energy.

Death Realm!

‘After I am reborn, I can actually enter and leave the Death Realm at will. This is a pleasant surprise.’ Lin Jiufeng’s eyes lit up. In this kind of life and death situation, the two realms were connected. He was very surprised.

‘When I enter the Death Realm in the future, I can explore more of the secrets inside.’ Lin Jiufeng was very happy.

But his top priority now was to break through himself, break the old shackles, and step onto the new shore. He had to turn everything that he had accumulated into timely combat strength.

Rumble!

Lin Jiufeng was becoming stronger.

He already had the strength of the sixth heaven of the Immortal King Realm. This time, he lived a second life and had a complete body. It could be said that he created a new world and evolved Yin and Yang.

Together with the previous Dragon Blood, the flesh of the Ancestral Dragon, and all of his accumulation, they all erupted at this moment.

Seventh heaven of the Immortal King Realm.

Eighth heaven of the Immortal Realm.

The ninth heaven of the Immortal King Realm.

The breakthrough continued. From the sixth heaven of the Immortal King Realm, Lin Jiufeng advanced by leaps and bounds. He flew to the ninth heaven of the Immortal King Realm before he slowly stopped.

“The current me should have the strength to protect this mortal realm!” Lin Jiufeng stopped his breakthrough and said slowly.

His gaze was deep as he stood in the mortal realm and looked at the Spell Realm.

He knew that there was a final enemy in that world that once belonged to the mortal realm.

The Seven Races of the Ancient Age.

Destroying the army of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age was just the beginning.

Just like how before a perfect meal started, there would always be some appetizers.

The 70,000 strong troops seemed invincible in the mortal realm, but in front of the entire Seven Races of the Ancient Age, they were just a drop in the bucket.

‘Next should be the story of the Seven Races of the Ancient Age descending into the mortal realm in a fit of anger.’ Lin Jiufeng put away the General Appointing Platform, held the Sword of the Holy Church, and walked towards the Light of the Homes. With a light flick of the sword, the Light of the Homes jumped slightly on the blade.

“In the end, it’s still us protecting the mortal realm,” Lin Jiufeng said to the weapons that he had once fought alongside.

The Light of the Homes didn’t speak. It only integrated into Lin Jiufeng’s body and entered his heart. It lit a lamp and illuminated a person.

The General Appointing Platform and the Sword of the Holy Church were also trembling slightly as they slowly awakened. They entered Lin Jiufeng’s sea of consciousness together.
