Projection of the Heavens: I prove my immortality through slaughter.

Lin Xuan's figure emerged from the edge of the extremely silent Guixu Sea Eye and reappeared under the relatively "normal" starry sky.

His aura was restrained, seemingly unchanged from when he left, but deep within his eyes, as dark as the ancient starry sky, seemed to hold billions of years of icy coldness and killing intent. Just a glance from him caused the surrounding void to condense faintly.

Instead of immediately returning to the Primordial Pure Land, he found a floating, relatively stable piece of star debris and sat down cross-legged.

The information he received from touching the Gate of Reincarnation in that ancient relic was too complex and chaotic, and contained an eternal resentment and sorrow. He needed time to carefully sort through and digest it, piecing together the fragmented images and perceptions into a picture that was close to the truth.

He closed his eyes and sank his mind into his sea of ​​consciousness. The fragmented information that surged like a tide resurfaced. This time, he no longer passively endured it, but instead used his indestructible Dao heart as a furnace and the mark of reincarnation as the core to calmly analyze and deduce.

A series of blurry yet breathtaking images slowly unfolded before his "eyes":

He "saw" that, before countless ancient times, there existed a vast and orderly cycle of true existence in the universe.

That place is not the hundred-mile stretch of land where the underworld was first created, but a true ultimate destination that connects yin and yang and governs the cycle of life and death of all spirits.

Countless powerful spirits (whose forms are similar to the Yin Gods now being conferred titles, but are even more ancient and powerful) roamed among them, guiding the souls of the dead from all the heavens and myriad worlds.

The enormous wheel of reincarnation slowly rotates, according to some grand and just law, sending the cleansed and purified true spirits to different channels to begin a new journey of life.

It was a complete, self-consistent system of life and death order, filled with ancient majesty.

However, the peace was shattered.

A fierce and indescribable war between gods and demons, sweeping across all realms, broke out.

The participants were not of a single race. There were ancient gods and demons who stood tall and firm, innate deities who controlled the elements, powerful witch clan giants with strong bodies, and some figures that Lin Xuan had never seen before. They were shrouded in pure immortal light, but their methods were equally ruthless and merciless. They were the prototypes of ancient immortals!

The cause of the war is unknown; it may have been a clash of ideologies, a struggle for resources, or a fight for ultimate control over the universe.

The flames of war eventually spread to the Realm of Reincarnation. This place became a battleground; whoever controlled Reincarnation could determine the fate of all beings and even influence the course of the war!

The inherent defensive forces of the Samsara Realm engaged in a fierce battle with the invaders.

In the scene, Lin Xuan saw the ancestors of the Witch Clan (whose totem aura was of the same origin as that of Xuan Yue Witch Priest) roaring, drawing upon the power of the earth's netherworld to construct a barrier; he saw powerful ghosts and gods burning their souls, perishing together with their enemies; and he also saw the order of reincarnation begin to twist and crumble under the terrifying energy impact...

However, the final blow to the Samsara Realm was not delivered by those seemingly raging demon gods, nor by those fearless ancient demons, but by a torrent of celestial light that was pure, dazzling, and extremely cold, as if it were condensed from countless celestial runes!

The celestial light, originating from the periphery of the battlefield, seized the moment when the defenses of the Samsara Realm were most vulnerable. Like the most precise and ruthless scalpel, it ruthlessly tore apart the core law framework of the Samsara Realm and struck the pivot that held everything together—the Samsara Disc!

"boom--!!!"

An indescribable scene of collapse unfolded. The Wheel of Reincarnation shattered, the Reincarnation Channels collapsed, countless ghosts and gods wailed and vanished in the celestial light, and billions of true spirits in the cycle of reincarnation instantly turned to ashes... Under that celestial light, the entire Realm of Reincarnation collapsed like toppled dominoes, ultimately disintegrating completely. Core fragments fell to various desolate places in the universe, with the largest part landing beside the Eye of Guixu Sea.

Beyond that destructive celestial light, Lin Xuan clearly "saw" figures enveloped in an even purer and more majestic celestial light emerging on the outskirts of the collapsing Samsara Realm. They coldly watched this ultimate destruction, their eyes devoid of any emotion, as if they had merely completed a trivial task, clearing away an unsightly obstacle. Among them, the aura of several of the most powerful celestial figures… was of the same origin as the supreme laws of the current Celestial Court!

Even in the instant before the image shattered and vanished completely, Lin Xuan caught a faint wisp of lingering resentment and bitterness—it seemed to be the final roar of a fallen reincarnated ghost:

"...Haotian...you treacherous...thieves who steal the Dao...may you die a horrible death..."

Haotian!

This name exploded in Lin Xuan's mind like a thunderclap! Even though he was not a native of the Immortal Realm, he had seen this name in many ancient books—it was one of the titles of the supreme Heavenly Emperor, the ruler of the Immortal Court!

All the clues now connect into a cold and clear line!

In ancient times, reincarnation did exist! A glorious and complete True Realm of Reincarnation once existed! A war between gods and demons of unknown cause swept into the True Realm of Reincarnation. When the True Realm of Reincarnation was at its most vulnerable, weakened by the combined forces of various sides, the ancient immortal forces represented by "Haotian" delivered a fatal blow, utterly destroying the True Realm of Reincarnation! Their aim was not to save or maintain anything; their purpose was likely to destroy the old order and, upon these ruins, establish a new order under their absolute control… And the Celestial Court is a product of this new order! The Celestial Court's current claim of "controlling a portion of reincarnation" is probably not inheritance, but a flawed product of theft and alteration!

"So that's how it is... What a celestial court! What a magnificent Heavenly Emperor!"

Lin Xuan suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes no longer held a cold killing intent, but rather an extreme chilling light after seeing through an ancient conspiracy, and a resolute rage that wanted to overturn everything!

He finally understood why the Celestial Court reacted so fiercely to his establishment of reincarnation and the creation of the underworld, determined to eliminate him at all costs! Because what he was doing was not challenging the Celestial Court's authority, but uprooting them! He was trying to restore the true order of reincarnation that they themselves had destroyed! He was revealing the filthy and bloody origins hidden beneath their seemingly glamorous and orthodox exterior!

What they fear is not Lin Xuan's current power, but the "Dao" he represents and the "order" he seeks to restore, which will expose the original sin they have concealed for eternity!

"You destroyed the lineage of my ancestors, usurped the power of reincarnation, treated all living beings as straw dogs, and established you immortals and gods as your supreme rulers..." Lin Xuan slowly stood up, his aura surging uncontrollably, causing the energy of the surrounding starry sky to roar violently. His voice, like the cold wind from the deepest depths of the Netherworld, carried a resolute declaration of war, echoing in this desolate star field:

"Is this the truth about your Celestial Court?" "Very well! Very well!" "The blood debts of the old cycle of reincarnation will be repaid to you one by one by me, the new master of reincarnation!" "Haotian? Celestial Court? When I crush the Southern Heavenly Gate and overturn the Lingxiao Palace, I will personally ask you—" "Are you comfortable sitting on this stolen power?!"

boom!

A boundless killing intent mingled with the Daoist principles of reincarnation, soaring into the sky like an invisible beacon, issuing a direct challenge to the celestial realm in the darkness!

The truth of history is heavy and bloody. But it did not crush Lin Xuan; instead, it ignited the burning passion within him to slay immortals!

His path, his underworld, is no longer simply about transcendence and order; it also carries the mission of seeking justice for the annihilated ancient cycle of reincarnation!

This is no longer a personal grudge, but... a struggle for the orthodox tradition! It's a true life-or-death battle!

Lin Xuan glanced one last time in the direction of the Guixu Sea Eye, deeply imprinting the sorrow and resentment of that ancient ruin into his heart. Then, he turned and transformed into a streak of light that tore through the starry sky, speeding towards the direction of the Primordial Netherworld.

He needs to increase his strength more quickly, improve the order of the underworld, and integrate all the forces that can be integrated!

The final showdown with the Celestial Court is no longer a distant future. From the moment he deciphered this ancient secret, the horn of war was sounded by him in this silent starry sky!

The Lord of Reincarnation returns, carrying the blood debts of countless ages, vowing to... reshape the universe and settle scores with the immortals and gods!
