At the end of his 300-year life, Xian looked back at the life he had lived. He had no regrets, but there were some unfulfilled wishes. Overall, he was satisfied with the life he had lived; he had reached the Ninth Rank of the Golden Core Stage and had become an Elder in the Heavenly Sword Sect, a Second-Rank Sect.
For a person who had transmigrated to another world, these achievements were modest compared to the accomplishments of the heroes in the stories he used to read.
He sat, remembering his first day in this world when he was born in an ordinary village in one of the cities.
At first, he thought that with his birth he would get a golden finger that would make him superior to everyone. Not only that, but he also thought that women would love him, and he would gather a harem.
But with the passage of time, he discovered that there was nothing of the sort. He was just in a world with its own laws, and he was not truly special, perhaps no more than a normal genius.
At the age of 10, he awakened a Third-Grade Earth Spirit Root, and because of this good talent, he was accepted into the Heavenly Sword Sect.
"If I had been more talented, I would have reached the Immortal Stage long ago."
He sighed in his heart, looking out at the horizon.
At that moment, he knew his end was approaching. He placed his basket of herbs on the ground, sat in the lotus position, and began to meditate.
Moments later, he died on a mountain, dying peacefully.
In a simple village in the northern part of the continent, there was a cry from a small child, not a cry, but more like a loud exclamation of surprise.
The child looked at his reflection in the water. At first, he didn't understand what was happening, but in the end, he concluded, "I have reincarnated again! This is my third life!"
He had just opened his eyes and found himself in a strange, small body, so he panicked and shouted, "What?!"
Touching the new body, he drifted into his own thoughts. He began to think about the stories he had read in his previous life and vaguely recalled them.
Usually, in these stories, the hero returns to Earth and does everything possible to dominate everything.
This was not what happened with Xian. By measuring the energy level in the air and also by observing the clothes he was wearing, he knew he was in the same world and had not moved to another one.
"This is the initial conclusion," he muttered to himself.
At that moment, a beautiful young girl who looked about 15 years old entered. The girl was very beautiful, with a jade-white face and enchanting eyes. Despite the poverty, her body had a special aura of elegance and beauty.
Xian looked at her for a long time, shocked by her beauty. Even in the two lives he had lived, this beauty was very rare.
"How beautiful she is!" he murmured.
The girl looked at the child in front of her, who was staring at her in shock, and she smiled, saying in an angelic voice, "Yun, what are you doing standing like that? It's an important day; you have to get ready. The masters from the Blazing Spirit Sect are coming here to test the children from all the surrounding villages."
"Yun, Blazing Spirit Sect?! What? Didn't this sect perish a long time ago?!"
He questioned himself, recalling his memories. At that moment, his beautiful and innocent facial features changed, and he said in a soft voice, "Sister Chun?"
"Yes, Yun, what is it?"
"Nothing, nothing. I'm just thinking about something. Is there any food? I'm hungry."
The girl looked at him and smiled, then said, "I will get the food. Come on, get ready so we can eat."
He nodded in agreement, then sat down to think, while Chun went to the kitchen.
"Yun of the Northern Lightning!"
He examined the new body and was surprised by what he saw.
"It's the Golden Body of the lightning type!!"
The Golden Body is the body that possesses First-Grade roots in the six elements: "Fire, Earth, Air, Water, Lightning, Ice."
This body is considered the best but also the most dangerous because others covet it, whether to make it an elixir or to kill the soul and take over the body, and other terrifying things that Immortals can do for this blessed body.
But this body was rare, and Xian had never heard of more than five people with it in his entire life.
However, for the original owner of the body, the fear was not only from the blessed body but also that the original Yun was closer to what is called a Son of Fate. At the beginning of his life, he was an orphan raised by his beautiful older sister. He was always fighting with the village boys. When he discovered his talent, he slapped all the children who had bullied him in the past.
He goes to the sect, and the sect allows him to take his beautiful sister. There, the Young Master of the sect meets the girl and is impressed by her, and at the same time, he becomes jealous of Yun's talent, so he sets up a plot and makes him a criminal and a fugitive. Like any hero of a novel, he falls into a valley, and there he enters a cave and obtains the inheritance of an ancient sect called the "Sun and Moon Sect."
He trained in the techniques until he became very strong and returned to the Blazing Spirit Sect. There, he learned the truth: his sister had committed suicide after learning of his fall into the valley. In a fit of rage, he destroyed the sect and killed everyone there. After that, he began to travel around the continent, fighting the strong and gathering disciples.
Yun's methods were hard-hearted, especially with those he considered evil. He would destroy sects and seize their inheritance and move to another sect. Because of this, he had many enemies and at the same time many friends. In the end, he decided to establish the Sun and Moon Sect, and in less than ten years, he made it a Second-Rank Sect and on its way to becoming a First-Rank one. But at the age of only one hundred, Yun was killed by poison by his first disciple and partner, who then turned his body into an elixir pill.
This method of death shocked many, especially those from the Sun and Moon Sect, which led to a war and fighting within the sect, resulting in its destruction and the loss of its heritage.
Xian was the same age as Yun and they were considered from the same generation, so Xian was very interested in his story, which was circulated everywhere. For a person who had transmigrated from our world, the hero stories he used to read had become reality, and the heroes had become real.
He was very interested in opportunities and searching for hidden powerful techniques or anything that would make him stronger.
In his youth, he visited the cave where Yun found the inheritance of the ancient sect and began searching the cave, but he found nothing.
...
After she finished the food, Chun returned to the room and found Yun still sitting and not moving. She became angry, saying, "Yun, get yourself ready. Didn't you want to become an Immortal? This is your chance; you shouldn't waste it feeling anxious."
She thought her brother was nervous about the day, so she wanted to encourage him.
But Xian, or as he is now called, Yun, was not thinking about this matter. He had hundreds of years of experience and knew many things that were going to happen, so he decided to live in Yun's body now and use this matter to his advantage.
"Sister, would you believe me if I told you something?"
He looked at her seriously and spoke as he stood on his feet.
Chun was surprised by her brother's change in behavior. She nodded her head in agreement.
"Sister, yesterday I met an old man who told me that I am very talented and decided to make me his disciple."
"What?!"
Chun was shocked and didn't know what to say, so she waited for him to finish his speech.
"He told me that I have a Second-Grade root, which is considered the best after the Golden Body root, so he suggested that he teach me a simple technique and that I think about it."
"A technique?"
He nodded his head in agreement, then threads of lightning appeared from his hand and flew, hitting the ground, which caused a small explosion in the room.
Chun's expression changed to seriousness, and she felt that her brother had gotten a great opportunity and had a bright future.
"Sister, I will not go to the Blazing Spirit Sect. Instead, I will train in the master's techniques for a while, and then I will go with him. But I am afraid for you, so I want you to come with me."
