Chapter 94 Shock and Realization
They knew all along that Chonglou's appearance was no accident.
What we see now, while expected, is also beyond our imagination.
after all……
Chonglou is the supreme ruler of the demon realm, whose power shakes the three realms; Lingtian is nothing more than a street ruffian, idle and carefree.
The two are worlds apart; how could they possibly have anything in common?
But since Chonglou had personally arrived and was now facing this boy who looked exactly like Feipeng…
Does this mean that Ling Tian himself harbors a secret that is enough to attract the attention of the Demon Lord?
Beiliang Avenue, outside Yong'an.
Xu Nian's expression changed rapidly, and his pupils contracted sharply, shrinking to the point of being as tight as needles.
Longyang's demonic sword only existed for 100,000 years?
Why...
Logically speaking, shouldn't Longyang have been earlier than Feipeng?
Isn't it said that after the Battle of Hulao Pass, Longyang transformed into Feipeng and ascended to godhood?
But now it seems that Longyang's existence was only half as long as Feipeng's time guarding the South Heavenly Gate!
The difference between 100,000 years and 200,000 years completely overturned his understanding.
In other words-
His previous reasoning was completely wrong!
Longyang was not the same person as Feipeng before!
On the contrary, it is highly likely that he is the reincarnation of Fei Peng after his death!
but……
If Longyang is truly the reincarnation of Feipeng,
When the Jiang Kingdom was destroyed and Hulao Pass fell, and Longkui devoted herself to forging swords, why didn't Feipeng come to her rescue?
Why allow your country to crumble, and your own sister's soul to be sacrificed to the demonic soldiers?
Furthermore, if the two were originally one,
Why does Longyang's life begin with an infant's cry, while Feipeng's memories begin directly with his youth wielding a sword?
and many more……
Longyang's life begins as an infant!
Suddenly, Xu Nian felt as if a thunderbolt had struck his mind. His eyes widened, and his face was filled with shock and realization.
If Longyang was indeed born from infancy, and his era was later than Feipeng's...
Then——
Did the so-called "fall" of General Fei Peng really mean complete annihilation?
Is the so-called "entering the cycle of reincarnation" not the end, but a rebirth?
Did his divine status collapse, his memories sealed, and his power lost, ultimately leading to his reincarnation as the Dragon Yang Immortal?
After Long Yang died, he was reincarnated and became Ling Tian today.
Because the power of reincarnation erases all the past and severs all cause and effect,
That's why Ling Tian in front of us seems so ordinary, just a street thug, with no miracles to speak of.
However, many people still noticed something unusual about him, and even the Demon Lord Chonglou personally came to visit him.
"right!"
"Exactly!"
As his thoughts deepened, the light in Xu Nian's eyes grew increasingly sharp.
Finally, he slammed his palm down and exclaimed in surprise.
This move immediately attracted the attention of everyone outside Yong'an Pawnshop.
Everyone stared blankly at the agitated Xu Nian, completely bewildered.
Only Lu Xiucai, who was standing not far from Xu Nian, approached discreetly and asked in a low voice:
"Brother Xu, what makes you so certain? What have you thought of?"
Faced with the questioning gazes around him, Xu Nian smiled somewhat awkwardly.
Immediately afterward, upon hearing Lü Xiucai's question, he smiled mysteriously and slowly revealed his deduction.
Lu Xiucai had initially listened out of curiosity, but as the conversation unfolded, his expression gradually turned to shock and awe.
Such a dramatic change in emotion even made Yaoyue and Lianxing, who were far away, wonder what the two were talking about.
"Brother Xu Nian... is quite perceptive, managing to unravel these layers of cause and effect."
Only Ling Tian, listening to their conversation, subtly smiled.
Although he didn't pay attention on the surface, with the breadth of his divine sense, he had already heard everything clearly.
He was not surprised that Xu Nian could accurately connect the three lifetimes of Fei Peng, Long Yang, and himself.
After all, although the term "reincarnation" is extremely unfamiliar to the people of Kyushu,
However, the fact that the Demon Sword only existed for 100,000 years and that Long Yang appeared after Fei Peng are enough to make people think deeply.
Inside the Tang Dynasty imperial palace.
Li Shimin stared blankly at the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking that appeared in mid-air.
His feet involuntarily took a step back, and his voice trembled.
"How is this possible..."
"The Immortal Longyang, wasn't he reincarnated as General Feipeng after the Battle of Hulao Pass?"
"How could this be?"
For a long time, he firmly believed that Longyang died in the Battle of Hulao Pass, and his soul returned to the heavens to become Feipeng; after Feipeng fell, he was reincarnated as Lingtian.
now--
The appearance of Demon Lord Chonglou in the mortal realm almost confirms that Ling Tian's identity is extraordinary.
However, the subsequent revelation of the Demon Sword's age completely overturned his original understanding.
In an instant, Li Shimin's mind was thrown into chaos, his thoughts in turmoil.
"His Majesty……"
"Perhaps, even a being as all-powerful as General Fei Peng is ultimately unable to escape the cycle of reincarnation."
Yuan Tiangang's gaze was intense as he spoke, supporting the swaying emperor.
"Reincarnation?"
Li Shimin looked up and stared at Yuan Tiangang.
"Did you notice that in the initial scene, the immortal Longyang was born as an infant, accompanied by various strange phenomena in the world, as if a demon had descended to earth?"
"The so-called cycle of reincarnation is simply abandoning the past and starting anew."
"When General Fei Peng fell, the meteor he transformed into streaked across the sky—how similar was that trajectory to the meteor that streaked across the sky when Long Yang was born?"
Meeting Li Shimin's surprised and suspicious gaze, Yuan Tiangang's thoughts raced, and his lips parted:
"The fact that the Demon Sword has existed for only 100,000 years is enough to prove that the era of Longyang truly followed Feipeng!"
"If this is true, then Fei Peng, who fell into the realm of gods back then, did not completely disappear, but instead fell into the cycle of reincarnation."
"Only by being reborn as Longyang, the crown prince of the Jiang Kingdom, can one experience the resonance of all spirits and the appearance of extraordinary phenomena at birth."
Li Shimin's right hand, with its veins bulging, gripped Yuan Tiangang's wrist tightly.
"So... the Immortal Longyang is the reincarnation of General Feipeng?"
"Could Ling Tian... be another reincarnation of the Immortal Longyang?"
Yuan Tiangang's expression was solemn, and he nodded heavily, his eyes flashing with a sharp light:
"Based on the current clues, it's highly likely that's the case!"
"Looking through Ling Tiansheng's biography, he was nothing more than an ordinary, utterly mediocre scoundrel..."
"But two people have already stated that it is unusual."
"Now, even the Demon Lord Chonglou has come to visit in person!"
Such a contrast can only be explained by one thing—
"Ling Tian is none other than the reborn body of the Divine General Fei Peng after undergoing reincarnation!"
"The path of reincarnation erases past memories and severs all cause and effect."
"That is why he seems to have lived a mediocre and aimless life."
"Yet it subtly exuded an extraordinary aura, so much so that it was recognized by the Demon Lord Chonglou at a glance."
Li Shimin's eyes flickered, and he opened his mouth as if he wanted to argue.
"But Demon Lord Chonglou clearly stated before that he was searching for a sword for General Fei Peng, solely to fight Fei Peng again!"
"In other words—General Fei Peng did not truly perish!"
Yuan Tiangang's lips curled slightly, his smile serene, and he slowly said:
"So, now that Chonglou has personally appeared at Yong'an Pawnshop to seek out Ling Tian..."
Doesn't this just prove that the answer is right in front of us?
"For beings like them, isn't reincarnation also a form of living?"
boom--
This statement came out.
Li Shimin's heart jolted, as if the dark clouds had suddenly dispersed and the sunlight had broken through the sky, and his thoughts suddenly became clear!
Yup!
Chonglou once said that he retrieved the Demon Sword in order to return it to General Feipeng.
Now he has actually descended directly upon Yong'an Pawnshop, aiming straight for Ling Tian—
