Transform into ancestral tablets and create a supreme immortal clan.

After much deliberation, Shen Xiao decided that he shouldn't be too ambitious.

The choice must be made in light of the actual circumstances of this world.

After all, some spiritual roots and bodies might have excellent aptitude in planes with higher concentrations of spiritual energy.

But in this world, it could also be a deadly poison.

This is, after all, just a lower plane, and the laws of this world cannot support such extraordinary talent.

He himself did not have enough offerings.

Fortunately, in the future, one can exchange for spiritual roots or spiritual bodies, which can be continuously integrated into oneself.

First, there was the choice of spiritual root quality. Without a doubt, Shen Xiao chose the top-grade spiritual root, which cost 1000 offering points.

The so-called spiritual root quality is actually the cultivator's affinity for the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The affinity of cultivators with spiritual energy is mostly the same.

Those cultivators with a single spiritual root are called celestial spiritual roots because their affinity is all focused on a single attribute.

Cultivators with multiple spiritual roots distribute their limited spiritual energy affinity across different spiritual roots.

This has led to differences in aptitude among cultivators.

However, in this world, only the attributes of spiritual roots are classified, not their quality.

Since ancient times, all cultivators have taken it for granted that the fewer spiritual roots one has, the higher one's aptitude.

This is an extremely biased view.

With the system's help, Shen Xiao no longer had this weakness.

He first chose a top-grade spiritual root, and then no matter how many types of spiritual roots he chose, they were all of the top-grade affinity quality.

Therefore, when choosing attributes, it is natural to have as many as possible within a limited range.

You must choose one of the five elements. After you break through to the Nascent Soul realm, you will need to unite the five elements to reach an even higher realm.

The five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth) cost a total of 500 offering points.

Next came the mutated spiritual roots. Shen Xiao chose four types: Yin, Yang, Thunder, and Sword, which cost him 800 offering points.

For the final physical and spiritual body, the chosen option was the "Mysterious Dharma Body," valued at 3000 offerings.

The myriad laws are interconnected, and supernatural powers arise spontaneously. The power of magic and supernatural abilities is amplified tenfold, which is hard not to tempt Shen Zhe.

So he spent a total of 5300 offering points, leaving him with only 80 points.

Even though he was back to square one, Shen Xiao felt it was all worth it.

"Fate fusion, reshaping the physical body..." Shen Xiao's spiritual light stirred slightly.

[Consuming 100 Fate Points, initiating the fusion of this realm's Fate...]

A mysterious and profound power descended from the void and enveloped the memorial tablet.

Shen Xiao felt as if his consciousness had been thrown into a furnace, intertwined and merged with some mysterious entity.

That is the "recognition" of this world, a process of eliminating the otherworldly aura and imprinting the local mark.

Painful, yet it also carries the thrill of new life.

After an unknown amount of time, the fusion was complete.

[The fusion of destinies has been successful; the otherworldly aura has been eliminated; the world's will has lifted its rejection.]

[Beginning the soul reconstruction...]

[Physical reconstruction begins...]

Inside the ancestral hall, a sudden burst of light illuminated the space.

The ancestral tablets on the offering table trembled violently, and rays of spiritual light converged from all directions, forming a cocoon of light in the center of the ancestral hall.

The cocoon of light continuously expanded and contracted, as if something was being conceived within it.

The cocoon of light gradually solidified, and a human-shaped outline could be vaguely seen.

Throughout the Shen family's territory, clansmen sensed unusual activity at the ancestral hall.

Shen Muge was the first to arrive, appearing outside the ancestral hall in a flash of red.

He looked at the light shining through the crack in the door, sensing that familiar yet unfamiliar aura, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the family head Shen Shichu, clan elders Shen Shiqian and Shen Shixiu, and others also rushed over.

"What happened?" Shen Shichu asked in a deep voice.

Shen Muge shook her head: "I don't know, but... it's the aura of our ancestors, and it seems... to be undergoing a transformation."

Everyone held their breath and waited.

The fluctuations of the light cocoon lasted for a full hour.

Finally, in a certain instant, the light receded, and the cocoon peeled away like flower petals, revealing the human figure inside.

He was a young man who looked to be no more than twenty years old, with a tall and straight figure and a handsome face that exuded a sense of composure that came with experience.

He stood with his eyes closed, his body still radiating lingering spiritual light, with a faint glow flowing beneath his skin.

Most strikingly, when he opened his eyes, it seemed as if a galaxy was spinning deep within his pupils.

That was a strange phenomenon arising from the spirit, and also a sign of a powerful soul.

Shen Xiao felt the long-lost physical body.

Blood flows through the veins, the heart beats in the chest cavity, and the lungs breathe in air carrying the scent of incense.

Slightly different from being a reincarnated being, it's a sense of security that truly belongs to oneself.

Every feeling was so vivid, so...real.

He looked down at his hands, his fingers slowly closing, feeling his body's extreme affinity with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

A warm vortex of spiritual energy condensed in his dantian, as if it were constantly absorbing the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy).

More importantly, he could clearly sense that he still had a deep connection with this ancestral hall and the Shen family's land.

The two innate supernatural powers, "Blessing" and "Reincarnation," have been transformed into a kind of innate instinct.

The "manifestation" then transformed into the "divine body".

"Ancestors..." Shen Shichu was the first to react, and knelt down with a thud.

Shen Muge also knelt down on one knee, her red robes spreading out like blood lotus.

The rest of the clansmen followed closely behind.

Shen Xiao raised his hand: "Get up."

The voice no longer echoed directly in my mind, but was a real, clear, and crisp voice.

Shen Xiao walked to the offering table and looked at the memorial tablet that had been with him for nearly two years.

At this moment, the spiritual light on the memorial tablet had completely subsided, as if it had become an ordinary wooden tablet.

No, it is not entirely ordinary. It is still the core of the Shen family ancestral hall, the "ancestral decree" of the Shen family, and the key to enter the Floating Firefly Secret Realm. It's just that the "spirit" within it has been transferred to this physical body.

Shen Xiao himself possessed the ability to communicate with the "Ancestral Decree" and established a mysterious connection with the Floating Firefly Secret Realm.

He seemed to be able to enter the secret realm freely and silently.

"From this day forward, I, Shen Xiao, shall be reborn." He turned and looked at the crowd below.

"I will personally lead you down the path of the Shen family."

Shen Shichu and the others were so excited that they trembled all over.

An ancestor who is flesh and blood and can walk in the world gives people more confidence than a memorial tablet that can only manifest miracles.

"I will obey the commands of my ancestors!"

Shen Xiao stepped out of the ancestral hall and slowly walked towards the depths of the back mountain.

I don't know if it's because it merged with the original owner's destiny, or because it devoured the original owner's lingering soul, or because its soul and body are too special.

He felt that even if he didn't deliberately cultivate,

The primordial energy of heaven and earth, like rivers flowing into the sea, surged into his dantian.

It was as if he were Shen Xiao himself from five hundred years ago, a resurrected old monster.

Cultivation and magical power are constantly being restored!

Yes, it feels like recovering one's cultivation and magical power.

"Could this be one of the benefits of merging with the original owner's destiny?"

Above the entire Shen family ancestral land, the primordial energy of heaven and earth surged continuously and poured down towards Shen Zhe.

With each step Shen Xiao took, the fluctuations of his magical power grew stronger, and the spiritual pressure he emitted became more intense.

When he stepped into the back mountain, his cultivation and magical power had already reached the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
