Chapter 1: Rebirth on Earth
Suddenly, a hand, withered and shriveled like a dead branch, emerged from the center of the crack
A figure covered in dust, coughing violently, crawled out of this shallow pit
has already become such an important part of my life
The magnetic field here is so chaotic... Indeed, has the formation I set up back then been activated?
Otherwise, in that final battle, even when facing the combined forces of the Four Great Divine Emperors, it remains uncertain who will emerge victorious.
The only exception is his pair of eyes, bright and clear like the stars in a summer night, full of life and vitality, yet possessing an inexplicable calmness, as if they have endured for eternity
It was as if the entire era's cultivation fortune was concentrated solely on him
At this moment, his fragile flesh could be cut down by even the most ordinary sword. Yet the intent in his eyes blossomed, as if a god of slaughter had descended, looking down upon all realms. It was as if the Yang Fan who had once instilled fear in the hundred clans of the divine realm had returned.
There is also the Dragon Extreme Divine Emperor. You have forced my hand. Once I return to the Divine Realm, I will ensure that the video of you wearing a green hat spreads throughout the world, compelling you to change your name to the Green Hat Divine Emperor
"Hao Wu, the Divine Emperor, I have gone to great lengths to assist you in refining the divine elixir to eliminate the hidden dangers of your Dao injuries. You repeatedly promised to marry me to your daughter, who is even fatter than a pig. Yet, in the end, you set up a trap, collaborating with the other three emperors to create a deadly scheme!"
The Black Stone cannot be measured by common logic; my ability to be reborn in this world must be related to the Black Stone
This is a capability he possesses thanks to a secret item on his person
The Earth has a magnetic field, lightning has an electric field, the atmosphere has an atmospheric field, living organisms have a biological field, and the universe has a cosmic field
Like a stone dropping into still water, it transforms into invisible ripples, spreading out in an instant, becoming fainter the farther it goes
Meanwhile, in Yang Fan's mind, a general outline of the mountain ranges and geological features emerged, resembling a holographic image, contrasting with his impressions of the Zhongnan Mountains.
Moreover, this physical body, with its meridians congested and filth accumulated, exudes an aura that unmistakably resembles the moment I first attained the extraordinary and transcendent state during my cultivation, the very mortal form that was buried in the Zhongnan Mountains, which contained all impurities
This is a field, also known as field energy
That girl who buzzes around me like an annoying fly
He temporarily disregarded the books and looked around in all directions
After a brief moment of confusion, the owner of these eyes suddenly sat up as if awakened from a dream
Everything in the universe has its own "field"
He has been reborn, but where is she now
This has completely transcended the realm of observing phenomena and directly reaches the deepest essence of things, profoundly mysterious and beyond description
It is important to note that in his previous life, exercising this ability required a continuous consumption of mental energy
Once, due to a duel with the Flying Divine Sword, I shattered the first peak of Zhongnan.
Amidst the howling blizzard and the bone-chilling cold, the Zhongnan Mountain area, shrouded in unusual magnetic elements and chaotic energies, remains untouched by snow. As soon as the snowflakes approach this region, they are repelled by an invisible force, swirling away.
Not only does it cause any electronic device to malfunction, but even a powerful postnatal martial artist whose cultivation has been refined to the depths of their bones will lose control of their internal energy upon entering it
Suddenly moved, Yang Fan closed his eyes
Another year of cold winter
It remains silent as it has for the past five hundred years
It is precisely by relying on this ability that he was able to rise rapidly even in the divine realm, where strong contenders abound, repeatedly turning peril into safety. Unexpectedly, this rebirth has brought back this ability, which seems to have become an instinct of this body.
A cold glint flashed in Yang Fan's eyes as he secretly resolved to be ruthless
O Qiyan Divine Emperor, I have kept the secret of your fondness for women until now in vain. I have silently admired the scandalous photos of you and your cousin, never revealing them to anyone. There will be no further discussions. Upon returning to the divine realm, I will ensure your disgrace and bring you to shame until your death
Yang Fan's eyes suddenly moved, flashing with surprise
The underground of the small earth mound suddenly erupted with astonishing heat. It then exploded, sending soil and rocks flying, creating a shallow pit with a diameter of two meters at the site.
Even if in a past life Yang Fan had achieved unparalleled cultivation, capable of confronting the Divine Emperor, in the final battle, under extreme circumstances, he managed to annihilate nearly one-fifth of the powerful beings in the Divine Realm in one breath, instilling terror among the myriad gods; ultimately, he could not escape the fate of regret.
At the moment when the ultimate strike from the Four Great Divine Emperors descended upon himself and Qing Cheng, the black stone in his dantian seemed to suddenly shine with a glimmer of light
The vast sea has turned into mulberry fields, nothing surpasses this.
In just a moment with the book, Yang Fan became acutely aware of his physical condition
Over time, Mount Zhongnan, this ancient and renowned mountain, has gradually become a place of mystery and terror in the eyes of the world. However, this has not deterred many from stopping at the outskirts of Mount Zhongnan to gaze from afar, filled with awe and reverence for that unparalleled battle.
In an instant, one may become obsessed, resulting in serious injury at best, or death at worst
In other words, have I, Yang Fan, truly returned to Earth, having been reborn through the mortal body that was buried back then
The cold gleam in the eyes is but a fleeting moment, soon to be lost in the depths of the gaze
It is unclear when it all began
Yang Fan's expression suddenly brightened
Even a congenital expert capable of soaring through the air would lose themselves here, becoming mad and frenzied.
Looking back to the past, in just over 200 years, the technological explosion has propelled human technology to a level unimaginable by our ancestors. I wonder what the state of Earth’s civilization has become after these 2,500 years
Between heaven and earth, whether it be people or objects, time or space, in his eyes, there are no secrets
Then, she gently stamped her foot
Yang Fan possesses a pair of eyes that can see the energy fields
As the bustling prosperity fades and the tides of time shift, it has been five hundred years since the Battle of Zhongnan Mountain. The number of humans and spirit beings who come to reflect outside Zhongnan Mountain has become increasingly rare, ultimately leading to a place where few tread.
Even so, Yang Fan still has matters that he cannot comprehend
Compared to the introspection he is currently engaged in, the introspection conducted by ordinary martial arts practitioners differs in precision as much as the distinction between a common magnifying glass and a lunar telescope
By the way, Blackstone
Opening his eyes, Yang Fan confirmed that the ravaged mountains beneath his feet were indeed the Zhongnan Mountains on Earth
The great power of martial arts has indeed reached this point
To this day, within a radius of several dozen miles of the Zhongnan Mountains, vegetation is sparse, and it continues to be filled with inexplicable anomalous magnetic elements, causing the vital energy in the space to rage violently.
All cultivation has been in vain, not only the Dao techniques and primordial spirit, but also the loss of all understanding of the great principles of heaven and earth... Is this the price of a defiant rebirth?
Suddenly, in Yang Fan's eyes, what replaced it was a trace of sorrow, and the expression on his face softened as he murmured: "Qing Cheng ... ..."
However, in his previous life, although he broke the impossible and reached the realm of shattered void during the end of the Dharma age, he later stirred up great waves even in the divine realm. Yet, looking back at his past, Yang Fan often regretted that he had taken too large a step in the mortal world, leaving Earth without experiencing many things. The subtle regrets in his state of mind somewhat affected the limits of his future cultivation.

Zhongnan Mountain has been the source of Taoism and a sacred place for hermits since ancient times
It seems that the stronger the individual, the more terrifying and unpredictable the pressure they exert becomes
This girl is named Qingcheng
Qing Cheng once faced a life-and-death situation, and I saved him using the method of blood crossing. If the Black Stone can grant me rebirth, perhaps it can also bring Qing Cheng back to life
At that time, he was playing barefoot by the riverbank when he accidentally cut his skin on a shard of glass. Blood happened to stain a smooth black stone the size of a thumb, and the black stone flashed with light, directly appearing in his dantian.
Although I have lost all my cultivation, the various martial arts techniques I comprehensively studied and created in my earlier years, the Daoist scriptures, as well as the insights and self-created divine techniques I encountered in the divine realm, along with the essence of alchemy, all remain in my mind. With this foundation, I will proceed step by step, and if given another chance, I will only be stronger than in my past life
Boom
In his field of vision, the surfaces of the objects within a radius of ten meters, whether stones, air, or vegetation, all emanate a halo that radiates from within to the outside
This is yet another marvel of Zhongnan
The colors and layers of the halo vary significantly
In his previous life, the reason he was able to break the impossible during the era of decline in cultivation was due to a fortuitous encounter in his childhood
With a heart full of doubt, Yang Fan attempted to stand up, staggering and nearly falling down.
It is the essence of all forms, all phenomena, and all laws.
The moment of heart-wrenching pain left him with deep regret that he could not undo
An inconspicuous small mound appeared with a crack that was not particularly long. After a brief silence, the sound of cracking followed in succession. Centered around this crack, fissures spread out, forming a web-like pattern.
After the palm extended, it trembled slightly and suddenly formed a fist
The girl who shamelessly follows him around, trying various means to gain skills, yet refuses to acknowledge him as her master or to study under him.
From this point onward, he can cultivate the martial arts that no one else can, comprehend the Daoist texts that no one else can understand, easily master the techniques that no one has succeeded in practicing, and even engage in actions that defy the natural order without any concern for karmic retribution.
However, it may be related to the currently abysmal situation. At present, he can only conduct the most basic and superficial observations, limited to a radius of less than five meters, which is a stark contrast to the ease with which he could once perceive all the mysteries of a realm, a reduction in capability by countless times
Looking at my withered, grayish hands like dry twigs, I quickly touched my gaunt, sunken cheeks, and then glanced at my unscathed body, a look of astonishment and disbelief appeared in my eyes
Especially as he could use the Black Stone to see and control the "field" of all things in heaven and earth, after entering the divine realm, as his cultivation grew stronger, his understanding of the "field" deepened. Not only could he control the movements of the stars and the rise and fall of the sun and moon, but he could also foresee opportunities, discern people's thoughts, steal others' techniques, and kill invisibly
I still remember, in the final moment, knowing it was unstoppable, yet like a moth to a flame, she leaped into his embrace, enduring the strongest strike from the Four Great Divine Emperors together with him. The smile on her face was so clean, so pure
However, what has changed is not just the Zhongnan Mountain
A person has an aura, and when thoughts are swirling in the mind, an intention field is also generated
In an instant, a figure of mixed colors appeared in his mind, covered by a faint layer of white light, while its interior was intertwined with various hues of black, gray, red, and blue.
For instance, why did the Four Great Divine Emperors suddenly set up a deadly trap against him
Two thousand five hundred years... Yang Fan felt a surge of emotion
With a thought, Yang Fan closed his eyes, and his breathing gradually slowed.
However, after ascending to the divine realm, what exactly happened on Earth, and how did Mount Zhongnan come to look like this
Oh? The primordial energy of this world is so murky, it resembles Earth quite closely
Suddenly, behind a small hill in a certain area of the Zhongnan Mountains, an unremarkable expanse filled with various pits and depressions exhibited unusual phenomena
Snap
Having lost all his cultivation, Yang Fan remained indifferent, his demeanor unperturbed.
Lu Dongbin, who composed this quatrain, would never have imagined that the renowned Zhongnan Mountain would indeed undergo a tremendous catastrophe in later generations
The field is a special form of matter and also a physical carrier of consciousness. It represents the boundary between matter and consciousness, serving as a medium between the two.
Moreover, Yang Fan was acutely aware of the terrifying power of the Four Great Divine Emperors. If he still retained his understanding of the Heavenly Dao, it would be tantamount to leaving a trace within the Heavenly Dao. With the abilities of the Four Great Divine Emperors, it was highly likely that they could deduce his survival from this, leading to endless future troubles
In a cataclysmic battle between the formidable forces of humanity and the evil tribes, the mountains became desolate, and ancient relics were utterly destroyed
Moreover, many techniques that could have caused a sensation in the era of cultivation were created effortlessly.
Only he, Yang Fan, within a short span of less than twenty years, reached a level of profound cultivation that had never been seen before, all while remaining unknown to anyone.
During the fervent years of the qigong craze, countless practitioners emerged across the vast land of China, yet none truly achieved significant mastery.
That girl who seems to have a deficit in intelligence no matter what she does
Indeed, I have been reborn.
Then, turning over, he lay on his back on the ground, breathing with great difficulty and slowness, producing a hoarse and unpleasant sound from his throat, akin to a broken bellows
He, in an unprecedented state of weakness, forcibly broke through the mound with the aid of his blood and energy, which had already left him nearly out of breath and exhausted
It was only at that moment that Yang Fan suddenly realized how foolish he had been to use the excuse of "I am the man who will become the king of the divine realm" to brush off the girl.
"Yang Huang, if I had not taken up the sword back then, you would still be trapped in the dark and chaotic realm by your uncle. How could you have had the opportunity to ascend to the throne? You dare to call me 'big brother' while plotting against me!"
This is the biological field belonging to Yang Fan, through which one can conduct a microscopic introspection of oneself
The world can be traversed in half a day, without the need to ride phoenixes or dragons
This figure is emaciated, with sunken cheeks and deep-set eyes, hair that is dry and yellow, resembling a withered corpse. The clothing is tattered and worn, akin to a millennium-old corpse just unearthed.
"Shouldn't I have been completely annihilated under the combined strike of the four great deities of the divine realm? How am I still alive?"
In his previous life, he was born in the 1980s in China, a time marked by the decline of vitality, known as the end of the Dharma age. Martial arts had become mere tricks of the underworld, and Daoist practices were dismissed as feudal superstition
At present, heaven has granted him a chance to start anew; in a certain sense, it is a blessing rather than a curse
