The sun and moon are both wrong; who made him seek the Dharma

The whispers of countless dead rose and fell.

A gray-white panel silently appeared before Xia Chuan's eyes.

[A high-level remnant soul has been detected.]

[Target being identified...]

[Target: The King of Nirvana.]

[Currently subduing the King of Corpses...]

Xia Chuan held his breath.

The text on the panel flickered for several breaths.

Then.

[Successfully captured.]

Xia Chuan's eyes suddenly lit up.

It really happened?!

How many incentives does Wanye offer?

One hundred thousand?

One million?

Should we just let him expose the entire panel?

He looked down eagerly.

However, the expected reward did not appear.

The panel paused for only a moment.

Immediately, line after line of text began scrolling upwards at an extremely fast speed.

It's like a normally stable system suddenly encountering an incomprehensible emergency.

【warn.】

External forces have been detected interfering with this system.

[Identifying the source of the attack...]

[Lock successful.]

[Source of attack: [Very strong]]

Xia Chuan: "?"

He looked down at his hands.

"I'm right here."

"Where did you get the strength to attack you?"

The panel did not respond.

New information continues to emerge.

[Resisting...]

【Resisting...】

Resistance failed.

Reason for failure: The opponent was incredibly strong.

Xia Chuan: "???"

Was System Bro scared out of his wits by Wan Ye today?

Before he could react...

The entire panel trembled violently!

Those words that originally symbolized the result of the subjugation were seized by an unseen force.

Knead.

distortion.

Rearrange!

The outcome of the subjugation is changing due to external interference.

Your skill [Eternal Life-Transforming Heavenly Demon Body] is undergoing changes...

The attempt to change the situation failed.

[Change again...]

[Change successful.]

[Detected that the [Eternal Cataclysmic Biochemical Demon Body] has been removed from the skill's scope.]

You have gained an additional talent:

[The Body of the Eternal Demon]

Xia Chuan quickly opened the talent panel.

All that could be seen were the original [Lord of the Underworld] and [Very Strong] next to them.

A line of blood-red text appeared out of nowhere.

[The Body of the Eternal Demon]

[Talent Description: There is some inexplicable relationship between you and the Corpse Immortal of Myriad Affairs.]

[Talent Effect: ???]

Xia Chuan was completely dumbfounded.

No.

What are my motivations?

Such a vast enterprise.

After capturing them, they didn't give them a single point, but instead gave them a talent with unclear effects?

Even a shady business can't operate like this, can it?

Xia Chuan stared at the three question marks.

I was just about to reach out and poke the system.

But then they discovered that new text was gradually appearing behind the talent effect.

The text appeared very slowly.

It was as if someone was traversing a century of time to temporarily write a completely new set of rules for him.

[The Corpse Immortal of Ten Thousand Industries is my younger brother.]

Xia Chuan: "?"

next moment.

That line of text was deleted again.

New sentences emerge.

[The Corpse Immortal of Ten Thousand Industries is your underling.]

There was a brief pause.

An additional line was added afterward.

However, apart from you and the Corpse Immortal of Ten Thousand Industries, no one else knows about this for the time being.

Xia Chuan stared at the panel expressionlessly.

Now he finally understood.

The system is not malfunctioning.

It's not that the current [Very Strong] is attacking the panel.

Rather, it is somewhere downstream in the river of time.

They like to reverse cause and effect.

And it also possesses great strength.

I'm personally modifying this talent.

But then I thought about it again.

Since he in the future is able to transcend time and modify his talents.

There must be a reason for that.

then.

Xia Chuan shrugged in 1906.

He casually remarked to the deserted place of reincarnation:

"alright."

"Then you can decide how to change it."

The panel remained silent for a moment.

Then two short letters appeared.

【ok】

……

2020 AD.

The land of reincarnation.
