Different from entering Instance Worlds before, as soon as he entered the Decaying Axe World, Xu Xing sensed the Dao Principles of a Different World's heaven and earth, unlike those of the Purple Yin Realm.

Opening his eyes, he saw that the sky was dark and devoid of light, with a Blood Moon hanging above.

A ghostly body?

Xu Xing moved, discovering his body lacked the sensation of flesh and blood. It felt somewhat like a Divine Soul that had left its body, yet it was slightly different from a typical Divine Soul, more akin to a Ghost Immortal who had not yet stepped into the Approaching Yang Realm.

However, before he could become accustomed to this ghostly body, a tremendous force swept over him, transporting him to a grand hall.

A voice announced, "At 10:30 PM, in Qingyang County, Madame Zhou, concubine to Master Zhou, is giving birth to a son..."

Then, on the Golden Palace, a middle-aged Scholar wearing a White Tiger mask, seated on the High Seat, looked Xu Xing over a few times and said, "Xu Xing, you will be reincarnated into the Zhou Family. Twenty years from now, I will send someone to contact you."

"Yes, Lord Tiger God."

Following the memories he possessed, Xu Xing bowed slightly, offering a salute to the middle-aged Scholar.

Once he finished speaking, another force assailed Xu Xing.

He did not resist.

When he regained consciousness, he found himself hovering above the Zhou Family's courtyard. From a room on the ground below, he heard the voices of the midwife and Madame Zhou.

Reincarnation? Cultivators cannot achieve this. The Demon Way, however, has secret techniques for possession and direct Reincarnation... Only the legendary immortal gods are capable of such feats...

Xu Xing frowned slightly.

Possession and Reincarnation were different. A Physical Body, after possession, would not be perfectly compatible with the Divine Soul. As time passed, the body would gradually decay, not lasting very long.

Reincarnation, however, meant a completely new life.

Forget it. Since it has come to this, I shall accept it. Let's give it a try first.

Xu Xing shook his head, flicked his sleeve, and his form passed through the walls into the delivery room. He lightly touched Madame Zhou's stomach.

In that instant, an inexplicable suction force emanated from Madame Zhou's stomach. His ghostly body could not resist this force and gradually collapsed, with only his True Spirit entering the infant within Madame Zhou.

The power of Reincarnation?

Xu Xing was inexplicably shocked. After comprehending the Life and Death Principles, he had also come into contact with the legendary supreme Great Dao—the Great Dao of Reincarnation.

However, before he could carefully comprehend this power, once his True Spirit entered the human fetus, his consciousness shifted from clarity to ignorance, becoming muddled and dazed.

...

「East Huangzhou, Nanhua Sect.」

Zuoqiu Clan territory, Spring and Autumn Mountain.

Is there a problem with Zi Ying?

Xu Xing's brow furrowed as he looked at the [Decaying Axe World] interface on his panel. The moment he had reincarnated, his consciousness had been expelled from the Decaying Axe World.

Although he could enter again, doing so was like entering a chaotic space where he could see nothing clearly, his five senses sealed.

The power of Reincarnation... this Decaying Axe World, it seems to be truly extraordinary...

Xu Xing shook his head.

If my purpose in entering the Decaying Axe World was truly Reincarnation, then I have a guess: [Zi Ying] has not yet successfully pierced the [Mystery of the Womb]. This is why my consciousness had its five senses sealed.

One life is merely one hundred years; Mortals often do not live for a full century... Converted to the Main World, that's only ten years. However, at this moment...

Xu Xing took a deep breath.

Entering the Decaying Axe World was primarily to enhance his Secondary Immortal Fate, thereby gaining an opportunity for Fate Deduction to resolve the crisis in the Main World.

But now, although ten years was a short period, he could not afford to wait or delay.

I wonder if a Destiny can be solidified in the Decaying Axe World. If so... perhaps I can break through the mystery of the womb.

Xu Xing pondered for a moment and conceived of a solution.

Given the frailty of his 'other self' in the Decaying Axe World, attempting to solidify an Immortal Fate would only result in one outcome: death.

It meant a premature death!

However, if it were *his* Destiny, he might just barely be able to withstand it.

With this in mind, Xu Xing no longer hesitated. He immersed his consciousness into his 'other self' in the Decaying Axe World and began to forcibly solidify his own Destiny.

Solidify the [Wenchang] Destiny!

He chose a suitable Destiny. This Destiny was one he had condensed before embarking on the path of cultivating immortality; even a Mortal's body could bear it.

Secondly, the [Wenchang] Destiny could enhance the strength of his Divine Soul to a certain extent.

[Wenchang (Red): A hidden fate aligned with the Star of Literature, granting exceptional aptitude for study, eloquence, and the ability to write flawlessly without revision.]

Instantly, the body of his 'other self' was once again under Xu Xing's control. He could clearly see the outside world; it was still the same Zhou Family courtyard.

"Old Master, Old Master! The young master... he was just born, and... and he died..." the midwife and Servant in the courtyard shouted, seeing the breathless baby in the swaddling clothes.

"What?" a portly man, dressed like the master of the estate, cried out as he walked into the courtyard. Upon seeing the dead male infant in the swaddling clothes, he instantly wailed in grief, "My son is dead?"

It seems, as I suspected, the reason my senses were sealed just now was this so-called mystery of the womb. But... the weakness of this body was beyond my expectations. Just solidifying one Destiny... and it died directly?

Xu Xing, now separated from the infant's body, observed all of this with a cold detachment.

Having cultivated to his current level, what human tragedies had he not witnessed? Although his age in the Main World was young, his age in the Instance Worlds amounted to several thousand years.

Nearly ten thousand years!

Moreover, in ancient environments, the survival rate of newborns was inherently low.

Furthermore, Lord Tiger God had arranged his Reincarnation into the Zhou Family, likely with malicious intent, by his estimation. Avoiding this disaster now could perhaps be considered a fortunate turn of events.

The memories within his 'other self's' body held little information about Lord Tiger God. He only knew that after drowning, his Soul had been guided by Lord Tiger God to the Netherworld, where he became one of the ghost soldiers under his command.
