Chapter 1074

(Unedited)

"Hihi!!! You must be wondering, why? Why is my Ki sealed? Why is it that I am unable to break through to another realm… Why? Why? Why?" the figure said with a teasing tone.

Xin Ja is already angered at this point and he wanted to rush forward and fight against that creature. However, he could feel that something seem to be binding him.

"I did not know how you are able to create such a unique cultivation style, but I like it! It can actually hide the full potential of one's body and not show it to the world. But at the same time, also increase in strength stealthily… What a unique cultivation style!" the figure said his voice changing into admiration.

"Well, enough of the entertainment… I would like to introduce myself first… I am Shen Immortal Wang Song… and this here is one of my abodes. This is where I took my last breath after living for thousands of years. I have not attained the forgiveness of the gods and have to once again enter through the never-ending cycle of reincarnation…" He said with a melancholy look in his eyes.

.

"Reincarnation? Then… then why are you still in here?" Xin Ja asked.

"Oh… me? Well, you know, I wanted to leave a small portion of my consciousness in this place just to make sure that everything in here functions as it should for the future generations…"

"Enough of me, I will tell you what I did to your dantian. I did not seal your power but instead modified it. You see, the sphere in your dantian is the key for one to be able to escape this continent and not lose his or her power… This continent is actually a sealed continent. The more powerful you are the harder it would be for you to escape it. However, once you are able to escape this continent, your power will be stripped off of you and you will turn into a mere powerless mortal. Unless… the gods have already forgiven you…"

"Forgiveness of the gods?"

"Yes… I have learned that every one of us in here, are actually offenders, and this is our prison…"

Upon hearing this, the expression of Xin Ja turned serious. He heard something like this in one of his lessons. Then suddenly he remembers that this planet is actually called Heavenly Samsara planet, a planet where the gods who have committed atrocities are imprisoned.

They can only return to the higher realm once they are forgiven.

Upon hearing the words of the figure and his explanation, Xin Ja immediately remembers the information.

"Then how can you know that the gods have already forgiven you?" Xin Ja asked.

"Well, that is simple. That is if you do not have to go through the life of mortality outside of this continent. Once you have died, then you will automatically be received by the gods. But the gods would not accept anyone who is weak, that's why we need to become strong. Or be stronger than others so that you will be chosen by the gods!"

Upon hearing this, Xin Ja showed a conflicted expression on his face, everything that he is hearing right now is far too confusing for him and is a bit out of his league. He shook his head and then heaves a heavy sigh, he has actually thought of some crucial fact from the words of the consciousness.

"Well, since you said that this continent or world is like a prison… Then I think you are doing it the wrong way… If you wanted to be forgiven, you have to do one thing, and that is to be strong so that you can help others. That is a way to gain much good karma." Xin Ja said.

The figure turned silent as his eyes suddenly rolled as if thinking.

"Karma… I have not heard such a word… for a long time," he said.

"Wait a minute… I think you're right… Young one… I think you've just opened my eyes to the truth… I'm guessing that the reason why no one discover this, is because those seniors who have gained too much good karma are taken earlier from this world without them being able to leave anything behind. I actually thought that karma would cause one to die early. With the pursuit of power, no one would want to relinquish such strength in exchange for the unknown result… But those who have persevered to do good and were taken early were the ones who have done the right thing!..." the figure said as his bony hands touches his bald head.

"Haha… I Wang Song have discovered it at last!" he cried in happiness.

His eyes then darted to Xin Ja who is already able to move. Then… his bony hand waved and sent a ring floating towards Xin Ja.

Xin Ja felt a bit confused as he catches the ring.

"Young lad… I have a request for you… This old man would really be thankful for your help. Inside this ring is my legacy. These are all the precious things I have gained for my entire life on this continent. This is my advance payment…"

"Wait… Senior… What… What is your request?" Xin Ja asked feeling a bit overwhelmed.

How could he just receive a legacy just like that? He did nothing but teach this person about karma and the possibility that it is the key to their forgiveness.

The figure suddenly stood up and then a strand of red light came out of its forehead.

Suddenly without warning that red light enters Xin Ja's forehead.

"What… what are you doing?" Xin Ja shouted in panic.

"Hehe… Do not be alarmed. I am harmless, I am just a mere consciousness, and I'm not a soul or a strand of soul. My request is for you to find my reincarnated soul. That is what I wanted you to do. And I will do the rest."

"What? Then… Then how could I do that? This continent is far too big…"

"Do not worry too much, I will help you… I can actually feel my soul once it is within 1 kilometer away from me…"

"This… But… Senior… can… can you…" Xin Ja wanted to ask something but he could sense that consciousness is already resting on his forehead.

"Senior… Can I take your old robe?" Xin Ja asked.

No one answered and Xin Ja just heaves a deep sigh. He just carried the body and laid it on the ground. Xin Ja did not bother to touch anything and just offered a silent prayer.

He then looks at the ring that looks like a cheap metal ring. But when he looks under it, he discovers a dark blue gem embedded at the bottom.

"How does this legacy thing work?" he muttered but then suddenly he remembers something.

There are ways to activate this kind of thing. One is to use the so-called spiritual sense and imprint one's consciousness inside of the ring… the other one would be the easiest, dripping of blood to claim ownership to the item.

Since he could not use his spiritual sense yet for some unknown reason, he decided to prick his finger with a needle and drop blood on the dark blue gem under the ring.

When this happened, the vision of Xin Ja turned a bit hazy and he suddenly found himself inside a room around 20 cubic meters. Inside the room, he discovered a lot of things. He saw some precious ores, different kinds of robes and armors, books, scrolls, potion bottles, and alchemical pills. But it seems that the potions bottles and alchemical pills have already gone bad due to the time they spent inside this place.

Xin Ja could tell that the time here is no different from the outside world. He even suspects that this place is just somewhere in the continent and through runes… his consciousness could peer inside of it. Well, he could not physically enter the place, so there is that possibility.

After checking everything, Xin Ja showed a contented smile on his face. He focused and everything in his backpack suddenly enters the ring.

"Very convenient… I did not have to make my own… Hehe…" he muttered with a smile.

He takes out one of the tendons that Yao Xue has harvested from his backpack and quickly made a necklace out of it. With the strength of the tendon, he is confident that it would not be snapped. He then decided to turn the ring into a necklace.

After that, he began looking around the throne room.

"Hmm… How should I get out of this place?" as soon as he said those words he suddenly feels the ground shaking.

With a panic-stricken face, Xin Ja quickly tried to stabilize himself on the ground. However, the tremor is far too strong for him to be able to stand firmly. Then without warning his body slowly floated in the air. This made Xin Ja feel a bit scared as he did not know what is happening right now. Then without warning, a flash of light suddenly appears.
