"Ouch, that really hurts!"
...
"...Although I was mentally prepared, failing the promotion is still very frustrating. This failure will at least make me a laughingstock among those guys for centuries..."
"Luckily, I prepared a Nirvana Rebirth Technique, otherwise I would have been dead this time."
After lying on the ground for several hours, Mo Bai slowly recovered. Because of the Nirvana Rebirth Technique, Mo Bai's originally powerful and divine body had completely disappeared, and he had been reborn back to the state of a four-year-old.
"No, after Nirvana and rebirth, everything I cultivated before will completely disappear, but it seems that some energy has been retained in my blood."
As if he had grasped something in the darkness, Mo Bai quickly calmed his mind and focused on sensing himself.
"...Now I can't sense it anymore, it seems to have completely disappeared. Before my rebirth, I cultivated Qi, using it to temper my bones as the foundation of the array, refining my organs as the array's core, forging my body into a wondrous array, ultimately achieving immortality. Blood was merely used as an auxiliary element. After failing to advance and transcend, I was forced to undergo Nirvana and be reborn. Everything else completely vanished into nothingness, only my blood retained a trace of power. Could I use my blood as the array's foundation this time I cultivate anew...?"
The more he thought about it, the more promising it seemed. Mo Bai immediately activated the Blood Refining Secret Technique to temper his blood and use it to stimulate his body's energy, circulating it throughout his body to restore himself.
After cultivating for about an hour, Mo Bai not only fully recovered, but his strength also far surpassed that of children his age.
This is the benefit of blood refining. Unlike qi refining, blood refining mainly strengthens the self in the early stages and makes it difficult to cultivate supernatural powers and techniques.
While Qi cultivation can strengthen oneself in the early stages, its effect is far less than that of blood cultivation, but it makes it easier to cultivate supernatural powers and techniques.
Afterwards, Mo Bai got up to observe his surroundings. Because of the failed ascension to transcendence, which caused spatial turbulence, he had fallen into a deep sleep after his rebirth. Therefore, Mo Bai did not know where he was on Blue Star.
It is now basically certain that Mo Bai is in the mountains and forests, surrounded by weeds, with some low shrubs in the distance, and fallen leaves have accumulated into a layer of humus on the ground.
Mo Bai had intended to use the stars to determine direction, but the weather was not good; dark clouds and tall trees obscured the stars completely.
Mo Bai was helpless in this situation, so he could only choose a direction, keep an eye on the trees to avoid going in circles, and then keep walking forward.
After walking for a long time, we finally saw a narrow mountain path. The existence of a path meant that people must live nearby. If we followed the path, we would surely be able to leave the mountains and find people.
Once on the mountain path, Mo Bai felt much more at ease. He walked along the path for quite some time before finally reaching the main road. By then, dawn was breaking.
"Luckily I was reborn at four years old, otherwise I would definitely be considered a pervert." Mo Bai thought to himself.
Having failed to advance his career and been reborn, Mo Bai's original clothes had long since disappeared, and now he was walking naked on the road.
Previously, with trees blocking the way in the mountains, Mo Bai hadn't felt anything, but now that he was on the main road, the cool morning breeze gave him goosebumps all over, and even his little calf was shivering from the cold.
When his tender skin turned red from the cold, Mo Bai finally caught a glimpse of the village in the morning mist. Sniffing, Mo Bai quickened his pace toward the village.
When he reached the village entrance, it was already broad daylight. The villagers who got up early had already eaten breakfast and were preparing to go out to work in the fields. But Mo Bai was dumbfounded. He stood blankly at the village entrance, staring blankly into the village.
...
What's going on here...?
who I am...
Where am I...?
What exactly happened...?
I hope I don't die because I failed to get promoted...
...
Although he didn't know exactly where this Hundred Pigeon Village was, Mo Bai was certain of one thing: this Hundred Pigeon Village was definitely not on Blue Star, nor was it in any alien base city developed on Blue Star.
Blue Star is a planet with a very advanced technology. The villages are very well built, with houses made of lime and cement and the exterior walls painted uniformly by the village. Agriculture has long been fully intelligent and mechanized, and factories and farmland have been built in some areas.
But in this Baige Village, the houses are all made of brick and stone, and there are even some mud houses. People even have to carry hoes when they go to work in the fields.
What exactly is this place?
The villagers who were preparing to go to the fields were also taken aback when they saw Mo Bai.
Early in the morning, a little boy with his bare bottom, his whole body red from the cold, who didn't even recognize himself, stood at the entrance of the village. Anyone who saw him would feel a chill run down their spine.
After being startled, the middle-aged villager composed himself, put down his farm tools, quickly walked a few steps to Mo Bai, squatted down, and asked him as gently as possible, "Little friend, you..."
"Wow..."
Before he could finish speaking, Mo Bai burst into tears, and no amount of comforting from the villagers could soothe him.
...…
I, Mo Bai, was born with a photographic memory, but I was abandoned before I even saw my parents. I lived in an orphanage from a young age, came into contact with the extraordinary world at the age of eight, and achieved immortality through the arts of weaponry and array formation before I was fifteen.
He is the superhuman who achieved immortality in the shortest time and at the youngest age in the history of the Blue Star's superhuman world, and is hailed as the superhuman with the greatest potential to ascend to transcendence.
At seventeen, I attempted to transcend, but failed and ended up here. Is this hell? Why did those idiots who failed to transcend survive, but I, a genius, died instantly...?
...…
Mo Bai, at a loss, started crying loudly at the entrance of Baige Village. During this time, several villagers came to the village entrance and noticed him. They all tried to comfort him, but none of them succeeded.
Mo Bai didn't stop crying until he was too exhausted to continue.
When the surrounding villagers saw that Mo Bai had stopped, they didn't know what to do. After discussing it, they decided to take Mo Bai to the village chief and let him make a decision. One of the village women, who was about thirty years old, found a set of children's clothes at home and helped Mo Bai put them on. Then, the group hurriedly took Mo Bai to the village chief's house.
The village chief of Baige Village is named Li Laifu, an old man who is nearly sixty years old. After learning about the situation, he did not rush to ask Mo Bai, but first made some food for Mo Bai. Mo Bai had not eaten anything since his rebirth. He had been wandering around in the mountains for half the night and had just cried a lot. He was indeed very hungry, so he did not stand on ceremony with them and started eating in front of everyone.
After finishing his meal, he thanked the village chief and the others. Seeing that Mo Bai's emotions had stabilized, Village Chief Li asked in a kind tone, "Little friend, do you know where your home is?"
Arriving in such an unfamiliar place for the first time, Mo Bai was also on guard, so he sniffed and answered in a tone appropriate for his age: "I don't remember. I only remember going into the mountains to hunt with my father. I think I rolled down the mountain. I can't remember anything else."
"Is there anywhere you'd like to go right now?" the village chief asked again.
"No."
"Old man, I want to go back to Blue Star. Can you take me back?" Mo Bai thought to himself.
"Have you ever heard of our Hundred Pigeon Village?" the village chief asked again, clearly trying to evoke Mo Bai's memory through the place name.
"No"
"What about Gray Sheep Village next door?"
"No"
Do you know Beetle Village?
"have no idea"
...
Have you heard of Holy Soul Village?
"Never heard of it."
"What about Nottingham?"
"have no idea."
Just kidding, Mo Bai was surfing the Blue Star Internet a few days ago, how could he have heard of any Hundred Pigeon Village?
When the village chief couldn't find out where Mo Bai's home was, he turned to asking for Mo Bai's name.
"My name is Mo Bai, but it seems that people used to call me Xiao Bai."
"His surname is Mo. Are there any people with the surname Mo around here?" The village chief was also puzzled upon hearing the name Mo Bai. Was this child from another city?
Unable to get any information about Mo Bai's background, the village chief had no choice but to think for a moment and then said to Mo Bai again, "Little Bai, it's okay if you can't remember right now. Stay at Grandpa's house for now, and when you remember, Grandpa will take you back, okay?"
Having just arrived in this world, unfamiliar with everyone and everything, and having been reborn back to the age of four, Mo Bai originally wanted to find a place to stay for the time being, and make plans after gaining some strength and understanding of this world. So he timidly agreed.
And so, Mo Bai, as a new villager, temporarily lived in the village chief's house.
...
"Grandpa Village Chief, I'm going out." After breakfast, Mo Bai told the village chief and ran off. This continued for several days.
"Don't go too far," the village chief shouted.
"Understood," Mo Bai replied.
"Uncle Youfu," Mo Bai greeted a middle-aged man in his forties. This Li Youfu was the first person to discover Mo Bai a few days ago.
"Hey, Xiaobai, don't go into the river again," Li Youfu warned.
"We're not going to the river today," Mo Bai replied.
For several days in a row, Mo Bai wandered around the village every day, sometimes going into the mountains and sometimes to the river.
The villagers all thought that Mo Bai wanted to look around to see if he could recover his memory, but in fact, Mo Bai was looking at the aura around Baige Village.
Mo Bai dislikes owing others anything, and since he's temporarily living here, he intends to contribute to the development of Baige Village.
Upon arriving at Hundred Pigeon Village, Mo Bai immediately noticed that the village's energy field was chaotic, and the circulation of heaven and earth's energy was disordered, resulting in serious waste.
If the energy field of Baige Village can be reshaped and restored, it will not only make the crops in Baige Village grow better, but also make the villagers healthier and live longer.
After observing for the past few days, Mo Bai, as a peak-level expert in array formation on Blue Star, has developed an optimal plan, but it is currently impossible to implement. The reason is simple: his strength is insufficient.
Although every night when he returned to his room, Mo Bai diligently practiced the Blood Refining Secret Technique, he would even circulate his Qi through the body while walking or resting.
However, Mo Bai's improvement was ultimately limited in just a few days.
It is simply not enough to support the reshaping of the aura.
If Mo Bai had chosen to cultivate Qi as before, a few days would have been enough for him to cultivate to the point where he could use supernatural powers and spells to reshape his aura.
However, after his rebirth, Mo Bai chose to cultivate through blood refinement, and it's still a long way from him being able to use supernatural powers and spells.
"It seems I'll have to rely on some external help." As dusk fell, Mo Bai finished his daytime cultivation and decided to return to the village.
"Grandpa Village Chief, do you know where there is a blacksmith?" Mo Bai asked the village chief after dinner.
"What do you need the blacksmith for? Have you remembered something?" The village chief was delighted to hear Mo Bai's question.
"No, no, I want to find a blacksmith to make a crossbow for hunting animals so I can go hunting in the mountains," Mo Bai explained.
"No, the mountains are so dangerous. What if a child under four years old gets carried away by wolves?" The village chief directly rejected Mo Bai's suggestion.
"Grandpa Village Chief, I'm born with superhuman strength, even wild boars can't beat me." Mo Bai said, showing off his muscles.
"That won't do either. If no one plays with you at home, I'll take you to find other children in the village tomorrow." The village chief still disagreed. These past few days, the village chief had been very surprised by Mo Bai's strength. Although he was still a rather thin child, he was already no less than an adult.
Thinking back to his earlier claim that he had fallen in the mountains and lost his memory, Mo Bai felt an urge to slap himself.
"Grandpa Village Chief, I lost my memory while hunting in the mountains. Maybe if I go hunting in the mountains again, I'll remember something." Mo Bai pleaded.
The village chief hesitated upon hearing this, but ultimately refused, saying, "No, hunting is too dangerous."
"Grandpa, although I can't remember anything about my past, I haven't forgotten anything about hunting. I remember clearly how to ambush prey, how to make traps, and even how to process the prey. If it really doesn't work, you can come hunting with me in the mountains a few times. If you still don't think it's okay, I won't go anymore. Is that alright?"
Mo Bai kept pleading with the village chief, who finally agreed to let Mo Bai find a blacksmith to make a hunting crossbow. However, the condition was that Mo Bai had to prove to the village chief that he was fine going into the mountains to hunt. Only then would the village chief allow Mo Bai to go into the mountains to hunt alone.
