Chapter Three: The Tribulation of Mortal Flesh

Jiang Chen roamed through the mountains and rivers of the Great Qian Dynasty, feeling relaxed. Along the way, he unexpectedly subdued a Thunderbird at the Foundation Establishment realm, which became his mount. This left Jiang Chen quite surprised.

The Thunderbird, a type of avian creature, typically reaches the Foundation Establishment realm after reaching adulthood. With a wingspan of over thirty meters and a trace of divine blood within, it boasted lightning-fast speeds, making it a decent mount even in Central Province.

Encountering a Thunderbird in the Great Qian Dynasty was truly unexpected. Could it be that his luck was at play?

"It's quite unusual to encounter a Thunderbird at the Foundation Establishment realm in the Great Qian Dynasty... This is a remote area where the strongest are only at the Sea Realm," Jiang Chen remarked, marveling at the extraordinary power of luck.

Jiang Chen sat on the back of the Thunderbird, experiencing firsthand the immense benefits of luck.

In today's world, cultivation has become systematic, with clear distinctions in cultivation realms:

· Entry Realm: Postnatal, Prenatal, Sea, Foundation Establishment.

· Middle Realm: Pill Condensation, Purple Mansion, Nascent Soul, Dharma Form.

· Divine and Demonic Realm: Creation, Nirvana, Immortality, King.

Beyond that, there are also the Sacred Realm, the Emperor Realm, and even the Immortal Realm. However, the Immortal Realm has not appeared in legends for a long time.

In the past, the scions of the Chaotic Holy Land were at least Kings, and even the candidates for scions had to be experts at the Immortal Realm. But this generation is different.

Due to a certain secret, most of the scions and powerful disciples of the previous generation perished, resulting in a situation where a group of disciples under twenty years old, with only Pill Condensation cultivation, are competing for the position of scion.

Of course, compared to the abnormal geniuses like scions, Pill Condensation cultivation is considered low. In the Hundred Nations of the Eastern Wilderness, however, Pill Condensation cultivation is invincible.

For example, in the Great Qian Dynasty, the strongest are only at the Sea Realm, and they don't even have Foundation Establishment cultivation... The so-called ten major sects of the Great Qian Dynasty are just sects with Sea Realm cultivators as their leaders!

In this tiny land, Jiang Chen's cultivation is invincible, which also indirectly reflects how barren this land of a hundred nations truly is.

Swoosh—

The Thunderbird let out a cry, pulling Jiang Chen's thoughts back to reality.

He noticed that the Thunderbird had already flown over a village at some point. Although Jiang Chen had not yet reached the Nascent Soul Realm and lacked divine sense, his sharp eyesight allowed him to see everything clearly on the ground.

The village was engulfed in flames, with corpses scattered everywhere. A group of bandits rode away on horses, carrying the village's women with them.

On the mountainside next to the village, seven or eight young men hurriedly returned to the burning village with freshly cut firewood. Their cries echoed through the sky!

They had narrowly escaped because they were gathering firewood on the mountain.

Inside the village, hundreds of people had been ruthlessly killed, and all the food, livestock, and young women had been plundered.

"Ah—Mother!!"

"Father!"

"Son!!!"

The sound of mourning filled the air, and the seven or eight men cried like children.

Jiang Chen, sitting in the sky, looked down at the tragic scene below, shaking his head and sighing, "In this world, there is no law or order. All that matters is power. It's not just in the lower realms where bandits run rampant. It is said that the desert bandits in the Western Desert specialize in abducting female cultivators of the Zen Sect."

This scene further strengthened Jiang Chen's determination to become stronger and completely forget about the legal society of his previous life!

In this world,

power is everything!

As long as one has power, kingdoms, beautiful women, and eternal life are within reach, not just legends.

Shaking his head, Jiang Chen was about to urge the Thunderbird to fly away, but suddenly he had a whim and stopped in mid-air, using his True Vision to look around.

[Name: Wang Wu.]

[Realm: None.]

[Talent: 0 stars.]

[.....]

[Name: Chen Zhong.]

[Realm: None.]

[Talent: 0 stars.]

[.....]

His gaze fell on the last youth, who was holding a dead woman and crying bitterly, full of grief.

The youth's information quickly appeared.

[Name: Chen Fan.]

[Realm: None.]

[Talent: 10 stars.]

[Constitution: Reincarnation Body (Final Reincarnation).]

"???" Jiang Chen widened his eyes, a look of shock on his face. He never expected to encounter a Reincarnation Body in such a remote mortal village!

In this world,

there are ten thousand types of Minor Bodies, a thousand types of Major Bodies, a hundred types of Supreme Bodies, and ten types of Supreme Immortal Bodies.

The Reincarnation Body ranks third among the ten Supreme Immortal Bodies!

It is said to possess a thread of true spirit that never dies, experiencing reincarnation through ten thousand heavenly tribulations, ten thousand mortal tribulations, ten thousand killing tribulations, and ten thousand emotional tribulations. Only after overcoming all of them can one become a Reincarnation Body.

The Reincarnation Body only needs to live like an ordinary person, cultivate secretly, and its cultivation will skyrocket. It neither faces the tribulations of ten thousand lifetimes nor the fetters of ten thousand laws!

It is an extremely abnormal Supreme Immortal Body.

However, this body is extremely rare, and just overcoming the tribulations of forty thousand lifetimes is as difficult as ascending to the heavens!

In history,

the Reincarnation Body has only appeared once, during the ancient Immortal Court era. By now, it has faded from reality, leaving only legends of its appearance at that time.

Never did Jiang Chen expect to encounter such an extremely rare body here.

Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, sighing with emotion, "The luck from the Golden Dragon of Fortune is truly extraordinary."

If it weren't for the Golden Dragon of Fortune, Jiang Chen might not have found a disciple with a Reincarnation Body, who had already faced the final emotional tribulation, even in eight lifetimes!
