Xiao Mu looked serious as he lowered his head to ask the young girl.

"Was it because I did not explain in detail that caused this misunderstanding? I'm sorry, Daoist, I misunderstood you. This time I will definitely tell you everything in detail."

Li Jing nodded earnestly, her eyes filled with guilt.

"Please come in!"

Xiao Mu invited Li Jing into the room; on the other hand, he was worried about the actions of the True Gods of the Reincarnation System. He dared not act rashly, fearing that the other party would detect something unusual and decided to first clarify the situation from Li Jing.

"Tell me about your situation again." Xiao Mu had intended to close the door casually but eventually chose to leave it open.

The reincarnation force on Li Jing's body had become more intense, as if someone was manipulating her from behind. This made Xiao Mu cautious and unwilling to unleash the Creation Power on Li Jing, in case it would affect the person behind her.

"Okay, Daoist, this time I will definitely be very detailed." Li Jing seemed somewhat naive, her eyes sparkling as she began to explain to Xiao Mu about the incidents occurring to her, including the nightmares, scenes in the dreams, and villagers from Twilight Forest Village she had seen in her dreams.

These were all things she had already mentioned to Xiao Mu, but mentioning them again, Xiao Mu did not feel any familiarity; his previous memories had been completely erased by the reincarnation.

Listening to the information provided by Li Jing, Xiao Mu began to think.

From the information Li Jing provided, the scene of the accident was undoubtedly where someone was utilizing the power of Divine Spirits, commanding some of the villagers of Twilight Forest Village, making these villagers dig underground.

"Dig? Wait, Geography Chronicles."

Xiao Mu took out the Geography Chronicles and revisited them, soon finding content he had seen before.

"Earth Vein Array, someone is digging underground, using the Yin Souls of Twilight Forest Village villagers."

"These Yin Souls are being manipulated. Someone is digging under the temple of Lord Bai's Mansion? The one controlling all this is a Divine Spirit of the Reincarnation System."

Various thoughts raced through Xiao Mu's mind, his expression gradually changing.

"Daoist, do you now understand what's happening to me? Why do I keep having such strange nightmares?"

Li Jing was still utterly naive.

"Layman, think carefully, have you ever been to some terrible place, and only after visiting that place did you start having nightmares?"

"Been to a place? Daoist, does it count if I accidentally ate a blood-stained plum last year?" Li Jing thought for a moment and naively asked.

Xiao Mu suddenly felt a headache and helplessly said, "It does not count!"

"It doesn't?"

Li Jing murmured softly, furrowing her brows and trying very hard to think. During this time of contemplation, Xiao Mu suddenly felt an unusual fluctuation inside her.

This fluctuation was not very strong, yet it persisted continuously for several minutes. By the time Xiao Mu noticed something odd and wanted to investigate further, it suddenly disappeared.

"I remember now."

Li Jing's expression suddenly relaxed, "Daoist, I remember now. Three months ago, I went to the Backslope of Third Peak at Cui Dang Mountain. It was after that visit that I started having nightmares."

Cui Dang Mountain, Third Peak, Backslope? Was this the location of Lord Bai's Mansion temple?

Incense Fire?

Xiao Mu suddenly smelled a strange scent. Upon discerning it carefully, he realized the smell came from Li Jing, the essence of incense fire, which had suddenly intensified during her period of contemplation, as if some stored power had erupted, or as if excessive consumption had accelerated its depletion.

What exactly was on this young woman?

Before his excitement subsided, Xiao Mu felt amazed.

However, at this moment, his expression suddenly changed again, his eyes fixated on Li Jing.

Rapid changes were happening to Li Jing, just as she uttered the words Cui Dang Mountain, Third Peak, Backslope, the power of reincarnation within her suddenly intensified.

Whom!

A series of dark blue Reincarnation Halos flickered around Li Jing, and the Destiny Point of Reincarnation Site suddenly expanded.

The Light of Reincarnation radiated from the Destiny Point, a small Reincarnation Seal appearing above Li Jing's head.

But the Reincarnation Seal was not targeted at Li Jing, it was aimed at Xiao Mu.

Within the Reincarnation Seal, a dark green light suddenly bent and swept toward Xiao Mu's body.

Xiao Mu was startled and instinctively dodged backward, instantaneously deploying the Earth Escape Technique to increase the distance between him and Li Jing.

Crash!

The walls of the house were knocked down by Xiao Mu as he escaped the room, instantly creating a distance of at least several hundred meters between him and Li Jing.

Li Jing stood motionless as if she had suddenly entered a sleepwalking state, her Divine Consciousness leaving her body, while on her, the Brilliance of Reincarnation burst forth in an instant.

In the depths of Reincarnation, directly beneath the Reincarnation Seal, a man in his forties with a wide robe and large sleeves appeared, with the Reincarnation Seal above his head.

It was him, the True God of the Reincarnation System.

Seeing the man, Xiao Mu felt a chill.

At the same time, the True God of the Reincarnation System noticed Xiao Mu, his two hands simultaneously gesturing, conjuring symbols of the Power of Reincarnation in the air.

The Power of Reincarnation was propelled, the light of the Reincarnation Seal grew even more brilliant, sending a beam of the Light of Reincarnation directly piercing toward Xiao Mu like an arrow.

Crack!

Without hesitation, Xiao Mu swung the Creation Axe.

His figure vanished from the spot, transported by Creation, completely distancing himself from the True God of the Reincarnation System.

Knowing he could not withstand the overwhelming strength of the True God of the Reincarnation System, Xiao Mu chose to retreat at the first contact.

With one transportation, Xiao Mu had moved himself near Dalin Abyss.

The True God of the Reincarnation System appeared again; the little girl Li Jing was already under the control of the True God of the Reincarnation System. Strange, why didn't the True God of the Reincarnation System kill her?

The girl was just an ordinary person, it would be effortless for the True God of the Reincarnation System to kill her, so why did he insist on keeping her alive? And why did that result in leaking his own information?

The control that the True God of the Reincarnation System had over Li Jing seemed not complete, at least not enough to fully control her, otherwise the girl wouldn't have escaped and told me her secret.

Could it be...

Xiao Mu suddenly thought of the vague gray shadow in Li Jing's bloodline and instinctively felt that the True God of the Reincarnation System's inability to control Li Jing might be related to that vague gray shadow.

What was that vague gray shadow?

Xiao Mu pondered again for a moment and ultimately found he had no clues about the vague gray shadow.

The one who plotted against me last time must indeed be the True God of the Reincarnation System, yet he did not act directly, merely using the Power of Reincarnation lingering on Li Jing to plot against me, thus not knowing that Yan Ping was me.

Even now, the True God of the Reincarnation System might not truly be aware of my identity, since I had previously protected myself with the power of Creation, sufficient to block his probing.

Fortunately, Li Jing told me the burial site of the Lord of Bai's Mansion Temple.

The words Cui Dang Mountain, Third Peak, Backslope flashed through Xiao Mu's mind, instantly lifting his spirits.

Combining Li Jing's dream, her words, and the records in the Geography Chronicles, it wasn't difficult to deduce that the temple of the Lord of Bai's Mansion was built there, but due to the influence of the Earth Vein Array, only those of the village bloodline could enter the Great Array.

This was perhaps why Duanmu Gong and other Mutated Beings from beyond compelled the spiritual beings of Twilight Forest Village to excavate tunnels.

They wanted to breach the Earth Vein Array to obtain the treasures of the Lord of Bai's Mansion.

Thinking this, Xiao Mu's mood suddenly became urgent. From the information given by Li Jing, the excavation of the temple of the Lord of Bai's Mansion by outsiders had been going on for at least three months.

Three months of continuous digging, it was estimated it would be nearly breached by now.

Time was of the essence, urgent action was needed to stop them.

Thinking of stopping the Mutated Beings from beyond, Xiao Mu thought of the True God of the Reincarnation System and fell into worry.

"It seems I can only ask Senior Zhou for help now. Senior Zhou has already attained the complete position of Curse Ancestor, with his strength, he should be able to cover for us, right?"
