Chapter 1268 A Dilemma
Ten thousand years ago, the Three Realms and Six Paths were in great chaos.

It's no exaggeration to say that era was particularly wild and untamed.

Apart from the larger sects and factions, individual factions generally don't have any decent buildings.

Sleeping on the ground near mountains and rivers was perfectly normal in those days.

Naturally, all living things in that era had relatively strong physical fitness.

Even humans, who are considered to have the worst physical constitution among all living beings, possessed remarkably impressive physical abilities in that era.

That era was called the Wilderness Age because, among all living beings, humans had the highest demands for quality of life. Their relatively luxurious camp consisted of a few leaves to sleep on, with a campfire burning nearby to make themselves as comfortable as possible.

In this era, there is another particularly good thing: the resources are quite abundant.

Especially for those powerful individuals who have mastered enhancement skills and can forge equipment, resources are truly everywhere.

The same applies to exceptional individuals who have mastered alchemy or weapon crafting.

Materials that will become extremely rare and precious in later generations are abundant in this primitive era.

Very few people know the value of these rare materials, let alone how to use them.

Until the appearance of Nuwa and Fuxi.

These two ancient gods possessed formidable individual strength, and countless powerful individuals were subdued on their journey.

No one is absolutely perfect.

These two ancient gods discovered this on their path to becoming stronger.

They further concluded a truth:
Every living being in this world, whether strong or weak, has its own significance and value.

Just like a strong human being.

Humans who have mastered alchemy or enhancement techniques are usually not among the most powerful in combat.

In other words, they may not be able to realize their full potential on the battlefield, but they can elevate their value to a whole new level through other means.

Even in this primitive era, a specialist who knows how to enhance equipment can become a sought-after figure among many powerful individuals.

The same applies to those who know how to refine elixirs or special tools.

Nuwa and Fuxi were the first to realize this.

The two were indeed very powerful in combat, but they were still unable to do most things in this world.

In order to facilitate the improvement of their strength, the two initially chose to recruit teammates with special abilities that could help them improve their strength.

As their strength increases, the number of teammates they need also increases.

Sometimes, you might even need someone less capable than yourself to do small things for you.

Over time, the prototypes of sects and gangs emerged.

More and more people joined the ranks of Nuwa and Fuxi, and some great masters began to emulate Nuwa and Fuxi's practices, benefiting the creators while also providing unique conveniences for the participants.

Nuwa and Fuxi, as the great gods who first used this model, and as the top gods in the Three Realms and Six Paths, could attract countless people who wanted to join their ranks simply by virtue of their names.

As the team grew larger and larger, Nuwa and Fuxi had to consider splitting it in two.

If there are too many people, there will always be some who slack off in the queue.

As a result, the sect's efficiency will become much lower.

Most importantly, as the team gradually expands, the required materials will increase. At this point, resources begin to become important, and to obtain more resources, you must acquire more territory.

Therefore, dividing the team into two is very important.

Even if this most powerful sect is split in two, they will still possess the greatest strength. In addition, the two sects have a very close relationship, so even if they are split in two, no other sect would dare to provoke them.

Besides, there are still some advantages to splitting the sect in two.

Nuwa and Fuxi, on the surface, are roughly equal in strength. Furthermore, as founders of their respective sects, their influence is essentially the same. Therefore, when disagreements arise, the situation often becomes quite awkward.

In this respect, establishing separate sects actually had its advantages.

During this period, everyone in the Three Realms and Six Paths knew that Nuwa and Fuxi had a very close relationship, and it was no exaggeration to say that they were cultivation partners.

The two not only frequently trained together to improve their strength, but also used their unique abilities to help each other, and even went through many difficult challenges together.

It was precisely because of their extremely close relationship that the two ancient gods joined forces to fight against Hou.

What the two of them didn't expect was that this campaign would bring about a dramatic change in their fates.

After their battle with the Hou, both of them developed incurable ailments.

Both Fuxi and Nuwa could clearly sense that their lives were about to come to an end.

During that time, Nuwa was very conflicted.

Why the dilemma? Because Nuwa has the power to rewrite everything.

Nuwa's spirit.

Nuwa's natal artifact.

After the battle with Hou, Nuwa awakened the important power of her natal artifact.

One ability in particular—reincarnation.

Reincarnation.

Abandon your current body and start over.

This skill is unique to Nuwa Ling, and it is an excellent means of prolonging life when one finds oneself to be on the verge of death.

Having this special ability is equivalent to having immortality.

Each time someone is about to die, they can start over through this special method.

After reincarnation, the reincarnated person still retains the memories and talents of their previous life, and is 100% able to reach the same level as in their previous life.

The ability to possess memories of one's previous life is already extraordinary enough.

Ten thousand years of experience cannot be acquired through mere effort.

If the ability of reincarnation is so abnormal, are there any limitations to it?

There are definitely limitations; no skill is perfect, and Nuwa's reincarnation skill is no exception.

After each use, this skill will enter a cooldown period of one thousand years. Furthermore, after creating the reincarnation array, the user must sacrifice their physical body, which cannot be rebuilt.

In other words, there will only be one chance for reincarnation in a thousand years.

This means that of the two ancient gods who are about to die, only one will survive.

To be precise, only one person can complete the reincarnation and continue their glorious legacy.

Some might say that if they had awakened this ability earlier, both of them could have survived, but that's impossible.

Nuwa wouldn't have considered using her reincarnation ability if things hadn't reached that point.

Without the battle with the Hou, how could the two awaken the special abilities of their destined artifacts?

Everything is predestined.

It was destined that Nuwa had to make this difficult choice.

As the saying goes, life is precious, but love is even more valuable.

For the person she approves of, Nuwa is willing to give up the opportunity for reincarnation, or even eternal life.
