Under the dim night sky.
An enormous giant snake crawled continuously through the mountain forests.
At this moment, the demonic aura on its body became denser and its ice-cold eyes constantly scanned the surroundings.
The snake noticed at least five fierce beasts, nearly as powerful as itself, lurking in the mountain forests surrounding it.
Yet it seemed unconcerned.
This massive snake body slowly transformed as it stared up at the full moon above its head.
"Here's our chance."
While demonic beasts in the Innate Realm weren't particularly intelligent, those that could group up and ambush others were intelligent.
The moment the snake in front of them transformed, these five demonic beasts rushed out to attack it.
Among them were three large wolves measuring approximately ten feet long, a giant spider, and a colorful poisonous snake.
They formed a group, hoping to benefit from this giant snake's transformation. They tried to kill it in its most vulnerable state and devour its flesh and blood to strengthen themselves.
Furthermore, this method was used by the vast majority of demonic beasts during that era to strengthen their abilities.
However, as soon as these five fierce beasts stepped forward, a shimmering spirit stone appeared beneath their feet, forming a magic circle around them.
Immediately, a beast bone emerged from the spell formation, killing all demonic creatures.
From the beginning to the end, the giant snake about to transform did not glance at these demonic beasts.
It waited until it transformed from the giant snake's body into a man dressed in black with a cold expression.
His mouth said coldly, "Fools."
Finally, it was transformed into a human-like form.
When it raised its head to gaze at the full moon, its eyes seemed filled with deep confusion.
"Lin... Tian, Lin Qi... Lin shu ... Su ... Qingyi ..."
He mumbled several names silently.
...
(At the Light Beam of Resurrection)
After everyone witnessed this giant snake containing half of Lin Shu's soul successfully transform into a human-like form, they didn't take it seriously.
But after hearing the whispering voice in his mouth, almost everyone was startled.
...
After Lin Jiao successfully transformed into his form, he made a breakthrough into the Dao Entry realm and embarked upon the cultivation path.
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan, cultivating vigorously on a small mountain, made a breakthrough at this moment.
Unlike Lin Jiao's extraordinary transformation, Lin Xuan's breakthrough was smooth.
He cultivated steadily, from the Qi Realm cultivation to the Innate Realm.
Until now, he had condensed a Yin Moon Phantasm, entering into the Dao Entry realm.
But the moment he made a breakthrough into the Dao Entry realm, as Lin Jiao, confusion flashed in his eyes.
And, on top of the Yin Moon Phantasm suspended above his head, a vague silhouette belonging to Lin Tian, Lin Qi, and Lin Shu emerged.
Because of his incomplete soul, these silhouettes became unstable and appeared to be shattered.
However, when all these silhouettes faded, Lin Xuan's expression was shocked, "Were these all my past lives? And my soul, of course, is not complete. There is still half of my soul straying away?"
He pondered for a long time, frowning.
After a few moments, Lin Xuan shook his head helplessly.
He knew very well that even if his soul was incomplete, it wasn't easy to find the other half of it.
So in the days that followed, Lin Xuan began to cultivate solemnly.
...
(At the Light Beam of Resurrection)
Looking at Lin Xuan's solemnly cultivating, Su Qingyi and the others turned their gazes towards Xia Bing and Bai Qingque.
Earlier, these two said that Lin Xuan and Lin Jiao would become life-and-death enemies and fight to the death for many years.
The thought of this made everyone anxious.
They feared a scene within the Light Beam of Resurrection where they would beat themselves up.
Thankfully, both Lin Xuan and Lin Jiao were aware of their identities, and more importantly, they were mindful of each other's existence.
In that case, if they ran into each other, it seemed more likely to fuse back together.
"Perhaps, the reason these two clash so much is because of the fusion."
Xia Bing and Bai Qingque guessed what Su Qingyi and the others were thinking.
Bai Qingque frowned and said, "I don't know Lin Xuan's character, but I know my Lord Lin Jiao's. He has a strong and overbearing personality, so how could he possibly allow himself to fuse with someone else?"
Xia Bing nodded subtly and said, "There is indeed such a possibility. My Lord Lin Xuan may seem to have a kind personality, but he is outwardly soft and tough on the inside. He would not choose to fuse with a demon like Lin Jiao either."
