Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Great Demon Descendant, 15 Years of Trials—Is Life and Death Truly Predestined?!

[Loaded Identity: Great Demon Descendant.]

[First page of the Reincarnation Celestial Book, begins writing.]

[Integrating destiny, fate, beginning the life simulation...]

"Buzz Buzz Buzz..."

The phantom Jade Pen gradually detached from Jixia's palm, merging with a strand of his Divine Soul, and was absorbed into the 'Reincarnation Celestial Book'.

Simultaneously, the writing slowly flowed:

[Several decades after the establishment of Great Zhao, the Empress finally swept away deep-seated troubles, ascended the throne, claiming rightful authority. At that time, rebellion across the land had yet to be fully quelled, humanity was weak and chaotic, mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas were filled with demons and evildoers...]

[At this time————]

[You were born at the Northwest's 'Xuanqing Lake', to the ruler of the seven demon paths of the three hundred li 'Xuanqing Lake' — the Flood Dragon 'Gua Hua'.]

[The nature of dragons is lustful, more so the blood of Jiaolong, hence your father 'Gua Hua' had a harem of over a hundred beautiful consorts of various races.]

[Your mother 'Xie Wei' was a daughter of the Prefecture City family in the Northwest Land, joined the prestigious 'Zither Sword Pavilion'. During her worldly travels, she was abducted by the Great Demon Gua Hua, forced into submission. Three years later, she conceived unnoticed.]

[Despite some cultivation practice, Xie Wei expended her essence in giving birth to a Half-Demon descendant, drained and empty, hemorrhaging to death upon your birth.]

[Before she died, she left you a dark blue Jade Pendant inscribed with the word 'Moon' and named you 'Ancient Moon'.]

[Unlocked Location: Xuanqing Lake.]

[Unlocked Item: 'Moon' Jade Pendant.]

As the words flowed, Jixia completely immersed himself, experiencing the additional scenes in his memory like a spectator.

However...

As some critical phrases slowly left marks in the simulation, Jixia's expression slightly tensed.

Great Zhao.

Xuanqing Lake, Great Demon 'Gua Hua'.

Prestigious Zither Sword Pavilion, mother 'Xie Wei'.

These things, he understood, were not baseless from this Celestial Book's gold pages!

Black Mountain City, located at the Northwest Border, was considered the most remote place.

But...

He also knew the strongest human power in the current world, its name.

None other than, Central Earth Great Zhao!

Yet the time of Great Zhao's establishment was at least several decades away from the present.

"Reincarnation, reincarnation..."

"Ha."

Jixia suddenly chuckled silently.

"Could it be that the memory infused by this Jade Pen gold pages really fabricates a tale belonging to me from decades ago out of thin air?"

Though he felt a thrill and a passionate impulse, Jixia truly couldn't believe the 'Reincarnation Celestial Book' could be so defying.

In comparison, he was more curious to know what benefits he could obtain from it.

A sect with the title 'prestigious' was very well-known within a prefecture.

The territory of the Great Demon goes without saying, only the true leaders in Black Mountain City could contend with it, not as enemies.

Even one level down,

the 'Martial Arts Hall' branches established in Black Mountain City were just divisions or sects opened by prestigious clans, ordinary people struggled to enter!

The so-called 'father' and 'mother' deduced by this Celestial Book had impressive backgrounds.

If in reality, any leftover fortune from these backgrounds could benefit him endlessly.

"But this so-called Great Demon Descendant is merely a Half-Demon body..."

Jixia contemplated the Celestial Book's identity, suddenly having a sense of being deceived.

Half-Demon and pureblood Great Demon Descendant, logically speaking, was a significant disparity.

"It seems choosing an identity from this 'Celestial Book' must be done with caution later, avoiding surface appearances to prevent pitfalls."

Jixia's eyes flickered, sensing a hint of malice.

The simulation continued.

[In Xuanqing Lake, there are as many as a hundred descendants like yourself.]

[Only three of Gua Hua's pureblood descendants are valued, while Half-Demons like yourself hold a relatively low status.]

[Because you chose the destiny 'God in the Fist', you inherited more 'human body' talent, thus thin Jiaolong blood, making your situation exceedingly difficult.]

So this was waiting for him!

Jixia's vision darkened.

As words slowly appeared, decades of memory suddenly flashed in his mind.

They were all unpleasant memories of Jixia as Ancient Moon in 'Xuanqing Lake'.

Don't mention the three legitimate descendants,

even the small demons with ordinary status secretly look down on him intensely!

This is what it means to be a Half-Demon,

Neither humans nor demons accept him!

Just after being framed by Jiang Zhou, he thought the tides had turned.

Unexpectedly, there are still numerous hurdles in this Reincarnation Celestial Book!

[You have lived at 'Xuanqing Lake' for fifteen years, during which time life was unsatisfactory.]

"Little bastard!"

"Abomination, do you even deserve to be a dragon progeny?"

The grey fog of demons shrouded the Xuanqing Lake for three hundred miles.

Xuanqing Lake, the abode of the Dragon descendants.

The piercing laughter echoed in Jixia's mind, difficult to eradicate.

At this moment, the self in Jixia's memory, also as 'he' who was Ancient Moon, had a thin figure, pale brows, and a cold face.

Even though still young, his whole persona exuded an aura of 'strangers keep out.'

In the evolved memories from the text simulation.

A few so-called 'elder brothers' were wantonly mocking him.

If he did not have the title of 'Jiaolong Descendant,' punches and kicks, perhaps even worse, would certainly have been unavoidable.

Yet even so, these lengthy hardships over ten years were distilled in Jixia's mind into fleeting memories.

Still vividly depicted the hardships of 'Ancient Moon' over those years without omission.

Serving tea, drawing water, verbal abuse, ridicule, and humiliation...

Demons, especially jiaolong, after all, are not true dragons, and their innate arrogance is indelible, making them scornful of those lesser than themselves.

Even more, they despised Jixia, who as Ancient Moon, shared the same blood.

Just experiencing a little of it made Jixia clench his fists tightly, inwardly curse, with nameless rage rising repeatedly.

He wished he could punch these abominations to death!

The one leading was the legitimate third son of Gu Hua, born from another mother jiaolong linked to the leading branch of 'Jing River Dragon Court' at Xuanqing Lake, raised here over three hundred miles, known as Gu Hongyu, with jiaolong blood boiling, extraordinary endowed.

Same as Jiang Zhou.

If he could alter his own 'trajectory,' then in the future, if ever successful...

This person could not be easily spared.

After all, he was not Leopard Head, with a character of 'Endure' carved on his forehead!

[At fifteen years old, following demon customs, you reached the juvenile stage; due to the father-son relationship, Gua Hua held a ceremony to activate the jiaolong blood within you, intending to set you on the path of demons.]

[According to convention, jiaolong descendants have blood divided into three grades: Dragon Blood, Jiaolong Blood, Mixed Blood, and even as a Half-Demon, you are not necessarily the lowest rank.]

[But because you forsook 'Jiaolong Blood Boiling,' the title of 'Demon Dominator' resulted in your jiaolong blood being extremely thin, only awakening the lowest mixed blood, leaving Gua Hua exceptionally disappointed, his gaze finally turning completely cold toward you.]

["Ancient Moon, except for inheriting some of your mother's looks, there's nothing in you that could earn my approval." Gua Hua, draped in an Ink Flood Dragon Robe, spoke coldly.]

["The lowly status of a Half-Demon is one thing, but to have inherited such a minuscule amount of demon blood, without even the qualifications to cultivate our clan's secret techniques, temper the body, or step onto the path of cultivation."]

[Observing your 'Jiaolong Blood Ceremony' activation, Gu Hongyu laughed heartily, his gaze contemptuous, with no trace of worry left.]

[Because in his eyes...]

[Your fate was already sealed!]

The three destinies represented three distinctly different paths.

The divinity in the fist symbolized the human body, but what if he had inherited 'Jiaolong Blood Boiling,' or even 'Demon Dominator?'

Would his status have been completely different?

At this moment, Jixia deeply experienced the meaning of the Celestial Book's phrase 'fated falls become reality'!

"Could it be that the 'Reincarnation' of this first page is already at an end?"

"But I clearly haven't done anything yet!"

Empathetic, Jixia knitted his brows tightly.

He had a premonition in his mind, that...

The words inscribed by the Jade Pen, infused with his Divine Soul, were like 'reincarnation,' and once laid down in ink, could not be changed.

But if he gains nothing from this first page of the Celestial Book, how should he face the upcoming situation?

However, as the Jade Pen's tip turned, the simulated trajectory suddenly changed!

Instantly, Jixia's spirit lifted:

"Is this..."

"A turning point has arrived!"
