Discordant Memories and Reality Warping

"What the hell?" Kong Xiang was dumbfounded.

His surprise did not stem from the modern technological set-up of Earth; the occasional aircraft roaring as they flew far above his head, the vehicles honking as they sped past, the little devices passerbys held as they walked past him or the digital signboards flashing neon in broad daylight as they advertised products.

Afterall, even though the styles of the Primal Plane or the Reincarnation Taboo World he was most familiar with lacked a technological presence, some of the Outer Worlds he had explored with his projections did, such as Vega, so it wasn't exactly a novel concept.

However, what struck him as odd was the sense of weakness he was feeling right now. His Cultivation base, Eternal Tributary, Divine abilities —everything was stripped away, or....was it sealed?

Kong Xiang pinched the skin of his body and felt a slight pain, confirming he had somehow turned back to a mortal.
