While in Battle Through the Heavens, one can pre-appoint oneself as an emperor.

Chapter 343 Reincarnation Through a Hundred Lifetimes

The halo around the center of the tree is soft and delicate, captivating the senses.

In the early morning, Chen Xiao woke up from his sleep and first smelled a faint aroma of wheat.

He opened his eyes and found himself on a warm earthen bed. Outside the window, golden wheat fields rippled in the breeze. A young girl dressed in coarse cloth was sitting on the edge of the bed, twisting hemp thread. Her eyes were curved in a smile, and it was none other than Cao Ying.

"You're awake? After we finish harvesting this batch of wheat, we'll go to town to exchange some fabric and make you a new dress."

Her voice carried the simplicity of the countryside, and though her fingertips were covered in hemp fibers, they remained lively.

In the blink of an eye, eighteen springs have passed.

This is Chen Xiao and Cao Ying's first reincarnation.

When they first opened their eyes, they both found themselves to be abandoned infants in the mountains.

In this world, they could not sense any energy from heaven and earth, and the vast power within their bodies was like a dream, no longer possessing any strength. If no unexpected events occurred, they might perish in just a few days.

Fortunately, the two were lucky and encountered an old farmer who happened to be heading into the mountains.

Now, eighteen years have passed. The old farmer has passed away peacefully, and the two have grown up. Their appearances and memories are no different.

With their memories intact, Chen Xiao and Cao Ying used many methods to inquire and have confirmed that this is a world where cultivation is impossible.

Since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it. I'll temporarily forget my memories and live like an ordinary person.

In this life, they were an ordinary couple in the countryside, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. There were no conflicts over cultivation, no conspiracies or intrigues, only walking side by side on the ridges of the fields and relying on each other by the lamplight on rainy nights.

Watching Cao Ying's earnest expression as she mended the clothes, Chen Xiao felt a sense of peace and clarity.

turn out to be--

Shedding all sharpness and simply living together in peace is the ultimate taste of life!

Time slips away quietly amidst the daily grind, and they grow from youthful innocence to maturity, until their temples are streaked with gray.

When Chen Xiao opened his eyes again, he finally felt the familiar battle qi.

However, Cao Ying was no longer by his side.

This is an empire constantly embroiled in conflict. Chen Xiao comes from a good family and cultivates diligently. At the young age of twenty, he dons armor, wields a spear, and becomes a general guarding the border.

By chance, Chen Xiao met the alchemist who accompanied the army. She was dressed in plain clothes, saving lives amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Her appearance was so familiar.

From then on, on the battlefield, he charged into battle, and she healed his wounds and prolonged his life; in the military tent, he devised strategies and plans, and she ground ink and lit lamps for him.

A few years later, a rebellion broke out within the empire, colluding with enemy states from within and without. The border regions suffered heavy losses from both sides, turning into a bloody meat grinder.

After numerous life-or-death battles, Chen Xiao managed to repel the enemy, but he was also severely injured.

She rushed through the city gates to his side and, disregarding her own safety, fed him medicine.

"My husband, hold on!"

Her voice was choked with sobs, yet she remained calm as she bandaged his wounds.

Looking at the determination in her eyes, Chen Xiao gripped his spear and stood up again, his aura suddenly rising.

Without destruction, there can be no construction. Through repeated life-or-death battles, he broke through in the face of adversity and became the only one among the surrounding countries to reach the Dou Zong level!

"Don't cry, we won't die—"

In this life, they guarded their homeland together, endured the flames of war, and witnessed countless partings and deaths.

In the end, they quelled the rebellion, retired to the mountains, and smiled at each other in the glow of the setting sun, closing their eyes hand in hand.

Their consciousness shifted again, their memories were completely sealed away, and they became a pair of chivalrous heroes.

Chen Xiao is a wandering swordsman, while Cao Ying is a skilled poison doctor.

As fate would have it, the two met again.

He fought off all pursuers for her, and she cured him of the world's most rare poisons!

The two joined hands to roam the martial world, upholding justice and chivalry, drinking together under peach blossom trees, and debating swordsmanship on the edge of cliffs.

When a powerful enemy attacked, Cao Ying was poisoned. Chen Xiao ventured alone into the Valley of Ten Thousand Poisons to find the antidote, and returned with the antidote after narrowly escaping death.

..

When Cao Ying woke up and saw his body covered in wounds, she scolded him, "It's not worth it."

Chen Xiao grasped her hand, "It's worth it!"

In this life, they lived freely and unrestrained, enjoying life's joys and sorrows until their hair turned white, when they still stood side by side on the mountaintop, watching the clouds drift by.

Lifetime after life, the cycle of reincarnation continues.

They were once a diligent scholar and a beautiful woman who shared their joys and sorrows, achieving academic success together and enjoying a life of glory.

They were once wandering artists and street vendors, supporting each other amidst the everyday life of the city.

Once a genius fighter from a small border town and a proud young sect leader who came to break off their engagement, they instantly changed their minds upon meeting.

They were once emperors and empresses who held sway over all others in the imperial city, ruling the world together and protecting the common people.

In each lifetime, they have different identities and circumstances, but they always manage to meet each other in the sea of ​​people. Sometimes they are childhood sweethearts, innocent and carefree; sometimes they fall in love at first sight and grow old together; sometimes they go through many twists and turns and finally become a couple.

In the cycle of reincarnation, they tasted all the joys and sorrows, experienced the ups and downs of life, cultivated many secret techniques and arts, and created all sorts of completely different lineages.

One lifetime after another, life after life!

Countless years passed, and when the hundredth cycle of reincarnation came to an end, Chen Xiao and Cao Ying's consciousnesses simultaneously ceased.

The humming of the ancient Bodhi tree seemed to reach their ears, and a soft green light enveloped their souls. The insights and power gained from countless reincarnations slowly merged into their bodies and souls. The two remained asleep in the center of the tree, but faint Bodhi patterns quietly appeared between their brows. Although their eyes were not open, they seemed to have seen through all things in the world, containing the vicissitudes and wisdom accumulated over hundreds of lifetimes.

"Om one"

Suddenly, the halo of the Bodhi tree abruptly receded, transforming into two condensed emerald streams of light that abruptly entered the space between Chen Xiao and Cao Ying's eyebrows.

The eyelashes of the two sleeping people trembled simultaneously, and their originally calm breathing suddenly became long and deep. Fine ripples spread around them, and the vast energy hidden in the tree seemed to have found an outlet, surging wildly into their limbs and bones.

Chen Xiao opened his eyes first, his gaze sweeping across countless scenes of reincarnation: wheat fields, battlefields, sword shadows, the imperial court—

The various cycles of reincarnation are vividly remembered.

The vicissitudes in his eyes vanished in an instant, eventually settling into a bottomless, clear blue.

Upon closer examination of his own condition, he realized that his soul and fighting spirit were no longer what they used to be!

"Six stars—"

Nodding in satisfaction, Chen Xiao looked up at Cao Ying in front of him.

Her eyes still held a trace of lingering vicissitude, but that lively spirit was rapidly returning.

Like Chen Xiao, having experienced countless reincarnations, her strength is now vastly different from when she first entered the Desolate Ancient Domain.

"Heavenly Realm—Late-stage Soul, Peak of the Ninth Revolution Dou Zun. Indeed, enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree surpasses decades of arduous cultivation!"

"Husband—husband—" Hearing Chen Xiao's slightly hoarse voice, Cao Ying fully recovered and smiled, her beauty even more stunning than before.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly, and just as he was about to speak again, he sensed that something had entered his body. However, even with his soul strength, which was only half a step away from reaching the Emperor Realm, he could not sense anything unusual.

"Huh, Bodhicitta?" Cao Ying exclaimed in surprise.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao instantly realized something, and his consciousness sank into his mind.

[Currently available advance payment]

• Spells: (1/1)

• Rare and precious materials: (1/1)

•General: (0/1)】

[Follow-up to the advance payment of Bodhi seeds: Received one Bodhi seed.]

"I got one too, Ying'er, give me that Bodhi seed first."

Without hesitation, Cao Ying took out a Bodhi seed from her storage ring and handed it to Chen Xiao.

The moment the Bodhi seed was placed into the precept ring, the advance payment information was refreshed again.

All three advance payment opportunities are available!

comfortable!

Chen Xiao smiled calmly, already knowing what had just entered his body.

He never expected that the Bodhi tree would treat both him and Cao Ying equally, giving them both a Bodhi heart!

The Bodhi Heart entered his body and instantly disappeared to repay the debt, which is why Chen Xiao could no longer sense it.

This result was undoubtedly better than Chen Xiao had expected.

In this way, Cao Ying can also use the Bodhi Heart to advance to the Dou Sheng realm in at most two years!

At that time, with her alchemy skills, even ninth-grade precious pills or profound pills will no longer be a pipe dream!
