Chapter 5: Reincarnation [III]
Taoist Mo was distraught for hesitating at the beginning when he had the chance to send his consciousness into the blank body of the unborn baby. This had now caused him to miss the opportunity of having his own sacred spirit body.
When Taoist Mo’s divine consciousness was about to enter this baby’s blank sea of ??consciousness and take over the body, he found that the baby’s blank sea of ??consciousness had already been occupied by Zhang Fei.
Taoist Mo could decide to forcibly wipe out Zhang Fei’s consciousness from the baby’s sea of awareness, but doing so would only cause damage to the baby’s sea of ??consciousness. It would, irreparably, turn the baby into a dumb person. This was also a great disaster for Taoist Mo.
Hearing this, Zhang Fei couldn’t help himself but said. “Great Taoist, I think this is just a dream! After a while, I’ll wake up and all this would no longer exist to me. You may be able to control this baby’s body by then!”
“Huh? Dreamland?” Taoist Mo couldn’t help but mutter!
Zhang Fei also suddenly felt that what he said was a bit too much. Didn’t this give away the life of Taoist Mo? So he asked. “Then, what plans do you have for the future, Great Taoist? Do you want to find another body of a Sacred Spirit or....?”
“Haha!” Taoist Feng Divine laughed miserably. “Look for another one? What do you think the Sacred Spirit Body is? On the entire Sacred Spirit Continent, there hadn’t been a sacred spirit body like yours for thousands of years. This old man was only fortunate to find you at the right time. For now, I can’t exist outside this body. And I’m too weak to begin another sacred search, even if another one exists, which I doubt.”

After Zhang Fei listened to this information, he fell silent. After a long time, he said. “You can only occupy a sacred spirit body which, probably, only appears once in five, ten thousand years? That means I’m stuck in here with you.”
Taoist Mo sighed. “Oh, think nothing of it. This is heaven’s will, and heaven’s will can’t be undone. You know what? This old man is also lucky to have you. Although my body is gone, my divine consciousness still exists. I can only stay with you, but won’t interfere in your ways. This way, I would keep my consciousness in finding another body when I get strong enough. For now, try not to die. If you die, I die. Alright?”
“I see.”
“By the way, there is one more thing you must remember.” Taoist Mo angrily added. “This is not a dream. Don’t think you are dreaming, because you’re not. Have you ever seen such a real dream like this before? I advise you to face this now. The earlier the better for you.”
After listening to Taoist Mo’s words, Zhang Fei couldn’t help himself falling into silence again.
Was he really not dreaming? Zhang Fei was doubting the authenticity of everything in front of him before, but now, he was beginning to think otherwise. He had encountered things in his dreams before, that made him realize he was dreaming, and when his consciousness aligned, he would wake up immediately.
But this time was different. Zhang Fei had tried to wake himself up many times, but this dream was still going on. *Is it all true? I’m I reincarnated? So, is the previous Zhang Fei dead?*
Zhang Fei couldn’t help thinking of his mother. Since the death of his father, he had become the only spiritual sustenance of his mother. If he became stuck in this place, how would his mother live?
While Zhang Fei was thinking about all this, the voice of Taoist Mo suddenly sounded in his mind. “Hm, through your memory, I also understand that you’re a loyal and filial person. Since you have appeared in our world, then your body in your home world must be dead. So, you don’t have to reminisce about the past anymore. Now If you don’t mind, I have something urgent to do.”
After listening to the Taoist, Zhang Fei hurriedly closed his mind, and muttered. “If you have anything to do, please, go ahead.”
Zhang Fei finally decided that even if it was a dream, it should not be too bad. For the time being, he would let himself be at ease and follow the flow.
Then, Taoist Feng Divine sighed. “I have suffered greatly from the heavenly tribulations. I barely escape with my soul. My spiritual consciousness is a little broken and incomplete. I will meditate for a long time, and then practice with great concentration in the sea of ??your consciousness to repair the broken consciousness. During this period, if you are in danger, you have to take care of yourself.”
After listening to Zhang Fei, he immediately said. “Great Taoist, you can be rest assured that as long as my life is my own, I will pay more attention to it. But, I don’t know how long you will practice for?”
Taoist Mo pondered for a moment, and couldn’t help sighing. “Oh! I’m not sure about the exact time either. Maybe five years, or even decades. However, I will leave a trace of spiritual knowledge before I start practicing. Only wake me up when your life is in extreme danger”
Zhang Fei nodded, and listened to Taoist Mo as he continued to talk. “This world is completely different from your homeworld. Everywhere is full of death and killing. Humans can awaken their spiritual power and condense it into crystals when they are eight years old. Practice as a foundation stage cultivation! This is the path to being a spiritual master.”
“I understand.”
“However, I have a cultivation method here that allows you to cultivate your spiritual power from now on. But its extremely hard. It will push your soul to the limit that you’ll think you’re dying. This way, you will practice eight years earlier than others, and when you grow to be 8 years old, you will be farther away when you condense spiritual crystals. Isn’t that extraordinary? I’m letting you practice it because of your special physique. If you change to someone else, there is no way for you to practice the technique. Now I have imprinted this method into your consciousness, and you will be able to practice as long as you understand it carefully in the future.”

Taoist Mo said. “Okay The exercises have been taught to you, and you and I will be regarded as master and disciple in the future. Hahaha! I couldn’t believe that I’ve lived alone all my life, and now only a trace of spiritual knowledge remains in my consciousness. But don’t worry. I’ll teach you all I know as my disciple.”
Hearing this, Zhang Fei hurriedly said respectfully. “The disciple Zhang Fei will definitely cultivate well and not insult the prestige of his mentor!” He thought to myself, whether this was a dream or not, he would do his best to face it. When he woke up, it would be a great pleasure to have a good aftertaste.
Taoist Mo nodded, and then said. “Well, my words as a teacher stop here, for now. If you have any questions, save it for later. You have to do things for yourself, for now.”
Zhang Fei hurriedly said. “Teacher, I still have a question to ask.”
“Are you not paying attention? I told you I have to do some urgent things.” Taoist Mo voiced, before sighing. “Okay, let’s talk about it.”
Zhang Fei quickly said. “There is one thing I don’t know. Why can I understand the words of you, my teacher, but can’t make sense of the words of other people?”
After listening to Zhang Fei, Taoist Mo nodded immediately and said. “As your teacher, I communicate with you through the divine consciousness. Of course, there is no language barrier. Others can’t use the consciousness to communicate.”
Afterwards, Taoist Mo glanced at Zhang Fei’s sea of ??consciousness. Zhang Fei only felt a sudden tremor in his consciousness. Moments later, Taoist Mo’s voice came in his mind. “Okay, Now I am going to start meditating and cultivating. You must take care of yourself, and don’t slack off in the matter of cultivation.”
“Yes, disciple will remember.” Zhang Fei replied respectfully. When Taoist Mo didn’t reply again, Zhang Fei knew he must have already gone into deep meditation.
A moment later, Zhang Fei suddenly felt that the originally difficult and incomprehensible voices around him had become clearer.
He listened to the beautiful woman saying. “Okay, then my son will be called Fei, Zhang Fei!”
