I Have Countless Past-life Identities-Chapter 163 - 90: Jixia Shocked: "You Mean... Song Brahman Mirror Is the Unparalleled Demon I Let Escape?!

Upon seeing Tantai Yao, who had been away for decades, his slightly haggard face still managed to stir no small amount of waves...

Jixia's eyes flashed, knowing that he had bet correctly.

So he spoke seemingly unintentionally:

"Uncle, how do you know I must have fallen?"

Tantai Yao carefully scrutinized Jixia's appearance, different from before, his sword-like brows tightly furrowed:

"If you truly are that Half-Demon youth who walked out of Xuanqing Lake years ago, how could, decades later, you reappear with a brand new identity and appearance?"

"That boy called Ji Han constantly claimed you were his 'elder brother'; now, I have reached the pinnacle of Primordial Pill Refining Qi. The next step is cultivating the Perfect Divine Soul True Master Barrier."

"I can clearly feel the same blood flows through both of your veins."

"This time you stand in this world cleanly as a human, without having been tainted by the blood of that former evil flood dragon which has now embarked on the path to become a dragon-like Great Demon."

"Though I've remained in Tongye State all these years, just to cultivate 'True Master' Barrier and then take my sword to the Northwest Demon Ancestral Court to battle that 'Gua Hua' Demon Monarch who now established a Demon Monster Mountain, claiming to establish a sect and become an ancestor."

"But the turmoil in Baoping State decades ago..."

"I am not entirely ignorant."

"Song Chai Xin, or should I say... Jixia."

"You were besieged to the death by ten paths outside the 'Black Mountain Celestial Abyss', bearing the legacy of 'Great Demon Hunter Master', and let... that person go, which led the entire Baoping State, even half of Great Zhao to become aware."

"Though I do not know whether things are true or false, neither the government office nor Jianghu had any reason to spare you."

"Those who stood by you then were weak and helpless."

"Even your maternal grandfather Xie Qiaoxuan, faced with such pressure, was a lone tree unable to support anything."

"Even later on, when the Marquis Wu from Divine Capital and real Grandmasters from Jianghu intervened and barely quelled that turmoil."

"Now, decades later, Baoping State is still rife with undercurrents."

"Even the Fourth Step Great True Master, worshipping the pursuit of Immortal Divine Soul, transcending the barriers of 'essence and energy', life breaking free from shackles, could just die suddenly."

"As the 'you' who links the entire event..."

"It's not that I, Tantai Yao, don't believe, nor do I covet the things that were on 'Song Chai Xin' back then, but rather..."

"I truly cannot understand."

Even though Tantai Yao firmly believes that Jixia in front of him is indeed Song Chai Xin, who stirred up a storm decades ago and countless people wanted to kill to covet what he had.

But how could a person destined to die, whose evidence was nailed on a board...

Could appear alive before him once again?

"By what means did you achieve this?"

In an instant, Tantai Yao's thoughts turned, his fists repeatedly clenched and unclenched.

At this moment, he recalled lands beyond Great Zhao.

He thought about three hundred years ago, mentioned by the most ancient True Master of the Jianghu Dao Lineage nowadays, from the Dragon Head Family...

And the 'Grotto Heaven Era' praised endlessly.

It is said,

that was a magnificent era where everyone strived to forge an incredible path to immortality!

In the Grotto Heaven,

there were rumors of figures who reached the Fifth Step!

Such methods were beyond common understanding.

The life and death perceived by ordinary people.

Perhaps in the presence of such immortals, or within the effects of treasures they left behind, as long as the Divine Soul wasn't completely extinguished, where there was even a glimmer of hope...

Could it really be brought back?

Could it be!

That Song Chai Xin back then.

Had just such a Grotto Heaven Era artifact, which allowed him to...?

Tantai Yao believes Jixia is Song Chai Xin.

Therefore, unconsciously, he starts supplementing his existence with supposed 'possibilities'!

Meanwhile,

Jixia spoke up:

"It's a long story..."

He slightly closed his eyes, avoiding meeting Tantai Yao's gaze to prevent him from seeing through things.

Immediately in his mind, the explanation he initially prepared for 'Xie Qiaoxuan' was brought out early to Tantai Yao, as he began his vague and cryptic description:

"As it's said, when people die, their light goes out."

"But Uncle Tantai should know that when cultivators step into the Carefree Realm and forge the Divine Soul, in essence, 'Spirit' and 'Qi' are more important than the physical body."

"The body may fall, but if the Divine Soul does not perish, and the essence of Qi remains, then it's not considered dead."

"And so I am."

Jixia sighed, brewed his emotions for a moment, then opened his eyes.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with the vicissitudes of life.

Their pupils blinked with the sediment of decades of years:

"I once acquired a 'Grotto Heaven Relic'."

"Initially, I was overjoyed, thinking I could rely on this unparalleled opportunity to connect to the celestial steps, step on the fourth step, and pursue the mysteries of the fifth step, but alas... until right before I died, I didn't comprehend the 'mysteries' within."

"However, after going through mountains and rivers seemingly without end, I eventually found a surprising turn."

"Only then did I understand at the moment of my fall."

"The activation condition for the relic was not harsh, but required the owner's death to initiate it."

"It can only be used once, but its effects are extraordinarily miraculous."

"It allows a person to keep 'a strand of Divine Soul' intact!"

"Thus, I fell into a long slumber with the relic, slowly mending my wounds by absorbing Black Mountain's Spiritual Qi, until twenty years ago."

"Finally completing a 'rebirth through borrowing a body' at this Black Mountain."

"However, in the past decade, I was trapped in ignorance, causing incomplete memories, often recalling fragments of Song Chai Xin's recollections, but unable to piece them together."
