I Am the Fated Villain Chapter 1291

Chapter 1291

Chapter 1291: Little Moon Guardian of the Land of Reincarnation, Master, you are here.

The once turbulent and mist-shrouded vast sea now lay calm, creating a dreamlike atmosphere for Moon King. He followed Gu Changge closely, standing on the golden road and approaching the bright moon hanging high in the depths. The surreal scene had yet to fully register in his mind, requiring some time for her emotions to settle.

The moon, resembling an expansive continent, hung high in the vast sky. Moonlight cascaded down gently, seemingly soft and bright. However, closer inspection revealed numerous lights and mist emanating from the surrounding void seas—fragments of broken and ancient worlds drifting in the undulating waves.

Gu Changge observed everything with composure, extending his hand to touch one of the light spots.

“Indeed, it is attracting the souls of the departed,” he remarked. As he gazed at the seemingly nearby moon, he acknowledged the vast distance separating it from the sea, with layers of s.p.a.ce and lat.i.tude.

The souls, originating from the world of mountains and seas and other shattered ancient worlds in the vastness, flocked towards the moon. For these souls, the land of reincarnation existed outside the real world, free from the constraints of the laws of heaven and earth. Yet, they had to remain vigilant against dangers from the boundless sea and other locations.

Gu Changge, too, harbored curiosity about the ultimate destination of these souls. The land of reincarnation, one of the world’s most enigmatic places, was shrouded in mystery. Witnessing this scene for the first time, Moon King and Luo Yanxi were equally astonished by the floating light spots.

Who would have antic.i.p.ated that the moon housed the land of reincarnation for beings from various realms?

Although the moon wasn’t unique to the entire heavens, it served as an unexpected nexus for the continuation of life, a mystery even challenging the understanding of individuals with a cultivation base that touched the sky and the earth.

Similar to a peerless being who had indeed condensed themselves, encompa.s.sing the past, future, and present within their own existence. Their legend resonated throughout the heavens, making every heaven reflect their presence. The round moon in the sky held a similar existence, appearing alike in various locations.

In the moon’s depths lay a silver lake, vast and infinite, s.h.i.+mmering like molten silver. Skyborne radiance converged and sank into the lake, giving it an immortal glow. From a distance, an ancient tree stood in the lake’s depths, its branches intertwined with intricate patterns. Each leaf seemed to bear the weight of an entire world, exuding a heavy and majestic chaotic aura reminiscent of a vast and endless fog.

A breathtaking scene unfolded. An ancient tree supporting the sky within the silver lake, seemingly upholding countless ancient worlds with every branch’s collision echoing the world’s roar at the canopy of this old tree.

A grand and sacred palace stood, radiating divine light and resonating with the Great Dao-building expert, causing the entire silver lake of reincarnation to vibrate in response.

Moreover, six vortexes existed in the depths of the Reincarnation Lake, exuding an ancient and primordial aura. Light spots entering the Reincarnation Lake drifted toward these vortexes, representing the existence of the six realms of reincarnation. However, what lay beyond these vortexes remained unknown.

Externally, the bright moon appeared as an independent universe. Its deepest part seemed even more expansive, resembling a long-abandoned star. Pockmarked with dilapidated craters and pools of various-colored blood, it emanated a terrifying atmosphere capable of making even a true immortal realm cultivator feel their body on the verge of exploding.

Big stars illuminated the sky and earth with dim brilliance throughout this vast and boundless realm. A pitch-black river rolled with boiling black light rays, mingling with thousands of intricate and regular divine lights.

The seemingly bright and beautiful moon’s surface hid an unexpected reality—a land filled with the aura of death and decay. Gu Changge, accompanied by Moon King and Luo Yanxi, arrived here after traversing the boundless sea.

Standing on a black mountain, the two companions were profoundly shocked, finding it hard to believe that the moon, once considered magnificent, was now a shattered realm resembling a universe scarred by battles and wars. The sight reminded Luo Yanxi of the ancient world she knew as Ancestor Luo—an era marked by various conflicts.

Gu Changge, sensing peculiar fluctuations, suspected Qing Yi was behind this preparation. The arrangements weren’t solely for those returning from the afterlife but also for the potential aftermath of the third calamity. If the real world of mountains and seas faced destruction, this land of reincarnation could be a source of new hope.

Initiating a descent into the depths with a golden light beneath his feet, Gu Changge encountered a desolate and silent environment. The broken ground exuded an absolute quietness devoid of any living aura. It seemed as though no sentient beings had set foot in this quiet place for countless years, lost and forgotten in a distant corner.

In the depths of the silver lake, a slender creature resembling a jade belt, as radiant as the moon, swam gracefully. This immature moon guardian immortal beast, with eyes like gla.s.s tinted with a faint crimson hue, guided the souls of the deceased toward an ancient towering tree palace at the other end of the lake. If allowed to grow, this creature could reach the height of a star field.

The lake, serving as a silent resting place, only hosted this minor moon guardian. It dutifully carried the heavenly dots of light, resembling wandering souls, to the lake, guiding them toward eternal repose.

Suddenly, the moon guardian sensed an anomaly and turned its crimson eyes toward the barren and war-ravaged land on the opposite side of the lake. In this desolate region, marked by death and darkness, ancient and intricate patterns adorned the mountains and valleys. No signs of life or cultivation could be found, making it an isolated and untouched area.

The moon guardian questioned the unusual presence, wondering when its master would awaken. It was puzzling that any creature would venture into this remote and lifeless place. Dismissing the notion as a mistake, it refocused on its task of guiding souls toward the six vortexes—the supposed actual entrance to reincarnation.

These drifting souls, varying in size and strength, represented a diverse spectrum of life experiences. Some were powerful and retained memories from their past lives. The moon guardian aimed to guide confused souls through the six vortexes, as directed by its master. This facilitated their journey through the cycles of reincarnation—birth, aging, sickness, death, and ultimately, a new beginning.

Little Mochizuki, burdened with the task a.s.signed by her master, diligently guided countless wandering souls into the vortexes each day. The vast heavens witnessed the continuous flow of numerous light spots from various ancient worlds ascending toward the six vortexes. However, not all worlds were suitable for reincarnation due to their low levels.

In this place of reincarnation, Little Moon King, filled with exhaustion, gazed longingly at the towering ancient tree within the Reincarnation Lake. This tree, a sapling of the era tree, could birth a powerful world when fully grown. Little Moon King reminisced about the carefree days in the upper realm, filled with endless food and leisure before the responsibilities of guiding souls took over.

Yearning for when his master was awake, and life was more comfortable, Little Moon Guardian couldn’t help but shed tears as he thought about his current predicament. Starving for hundreds of years, he endured the hards.h.i.+ps while awaiting his master’s awakening. The deep sleep of her master made her future uncertain, leaving him with no choice but to continue working tirelessly.

Amidst his sorrow, Little Moon Guardian noticed a dazzling golden light emanating from across the lake of reincarnation. This unexpected sight captured his attention, momentarily diverting her thoughts from his arduous responsibilities.

Numerous ancient runes and restrictions etched into the ground radiated a dazzling light, yet they vanished upon the arrival of the golden road, replaced by an air of calmness.

Three figures stood on the golden road, with one of them catching Little Moon Guardian’s attention. Recognizing the familiar face, he transformed into a silver streak of light and dashed toward them, causing ripples across the serene Reincarnation Lake.

Observing this unexpected event, Moon King and Luo Yanxi, initially on guard, were puzzled by the sight. Having healed from his injuries, Moon King readied her Immortal King Artifact, while Luo Yanxi, trusting Gu Changge’s presence, remained unthreatened.

To their surprise, the silver streak transformed into a fourteen or fifteen-year-old silver-haired girl. Her exquisite features, glazed eyes, and flowing silver hair made her appear astonis.h.i.+ngly beautiful. However, what captivated their attention was her expression—filled with grievance, teary-eyed, and sobbing—as she rushed toward Gu Changge.

“Master… you’re here…” she cried, attempting to hug Gu Changge, but he prevented her, cautioning, “Don’t wipe your tears on me.” Gu Changge identified her as the little Moon Guardian he had brought out in the Purple Mountain. Entrusting her care to Gu Qingyi due to the inconvenience, he had not visited her until now.
