The Great Ruler: Reborn as Mu Chen, sweeping across the vast world!

The vast world, Bailing Continent.

Northern Spirit Realm, Northern Spirit Academy.

"...The Spirit Road is an ancient trial ground jointly opened up by the five major academies, where opportunities and dangers coexist."

"Only those who gain the approval of the Mirror of Judgment can be qualified to enter it."

"Those who excel in the Spiritual Path will be directly qualified to enter the Five Great Academies for further study, with a promising future..."

Dean Xiao of the Northern Spirit Academy, a renowned Divine Soul Realm expert in the Northern Spirit Realm, was explaining the Spiritual Path to the many young people in a gentle voice.

Among the crowd, a young man dressed in black stood quietly.

He had a handsome and refined appearance, with a touch of childishness still remaining in his eyes. He was none other than Mu Chen, the young master of the Mu Domain!

Upon hearing Dean Xiao's voice, Mu Chen's gaze momentarily wavered.

Countless bizarre and fantastical memories surged and assaulted his consciousness.

Shock, realization, understanding...

A complex mix of emotions churned and intertwined in his clear eyes.

He slowly closed his eyes, and finally, all the turmoil subsided into calm.

"I see!"

Having been reborn for over a decade, he has finally unraveled the mystery of the womb!

The memories of the two lifetimes are completely intertwined and merged. He is Mu Chen, but he also seems to be somewhat different.

[The system has detected the awakening of the master's past life memories, meeting the system loading requirements.]

[The check-in system is loading...]

【1%…20%…50%…80%…100%！】

Loading successful!

A mechanical voice resounded deep within his soul, startling Mu Chen!

Immediately, a pale blue, semi-transparent light screen, visible only to him, quietly unfolded before his eyes.

【Owner: Mu Chen】

[World inhabited: The Great Thousand Worlds (Bailing Continent - Northern Spirit Realm)]

[Current Strength: Late Stage of Sensing Realm]

[Tip: This area is available for check-in]

system?

Mu Chen's heart stirred slightly, causing ripples to appear once again in the calm lake of his mind!

Unexpectedly, it makes sense.

"Check-in," he muttered to himself.

Beiling Academy, the place where he received his initial training and where the story begins.

[Check-in Location: Northern Spiritual Academy]

[Check-in successful!]

[Reward Obtained: Chaos God Grinding Technique]

[The secret method of cultivating the divine soul originates from the concept of endless chaos. Visualize the chaotic divine mill grinding away at nothingness, tempering the soul power, solidifying the foundation, and forging an unparalleled divine soul foundation with limitless potential.]

[Note: All rewards are subject to the rules of the universe.]

A vast and profound flow of information instantly flooded into Mu Chen's mind, transforming into a deep and endless meditative scene.

In the vast chaos, an indescribably heavy millstone slowly turned, and between the millstones, there seemed to be the blood of gods and demons...

not bad!

Mu Chen remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was overjoyed. This was the Soul Forging Technique created by the Great Venerable Cang Yuan in Yuan Zun!

I'll definitely give it a try later!

At this point, Dean Xiao's explanation was also nearing its end.

"Alright, everyone, please be quiet."

Dean Xiao gently raised his hand, and the slight commotion in the square immediately subsided.

"The Mirror of Judgment will sweep across the Northern Spirit Realm in about half an incense stick's time."

"Whether you can gain its recognition at that time will depend on your individual qualifications and fate."

His words sent a chill down the spines of all the teenagers.

Half an incense stick's time! The moment that will decide our fate is right before us!

The atmosphere in the square suddenly became heavy, and many people's breathing became labored.

Only Mu Chen remained calm and composed, even showing a hint of anticipation.

He wasn't nervous at all, because he knew he would definitely be chosen.

Even without the system, Mu Chen's talent is still top-notch in the entire Great Thousand World!

Now, he's more interested in something else: can he check in on the Spirit Path? And what kind of rewards would he get?

The time it takes for half an incense stick to burn seems exceptionally long during the anxious wait, yet it also feels like it passes in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, the sky darkened without warning, and a rift in the void appeared without any warning!

A bronze mirror-like image emerged from it, silently floating high in the sky, a full thousand feet in size, almost obscuring half of the sky.

Mirror of Judgment!

An indescribable, immense pressure poured down, and even though it was just a projected phantom, it was enough to make all the forces in the Northern Spirit Realm bow down!

This is the majesty of a divine artifact!

The enormous bronze mirror phantom slightly adjusted its angle, and the murky light on the mirror surface flowed faster, as if a cold and indifferent eye was scanning the insignificant beings below, who were as tiny as ants.

Om-!

The selection process for the Spirit Path has begun!

Starlight filled the air, enveloping the group of teenagers in the square, including Mu Chen.

The moment the deep blue starlight enveloped him, Mu Chen felt everything around him rapidly recede into the distance, as if he were in the depths of the starry sky, surrounded by only eternally silent light.

He didn't panic. He slowly closed his eyes and focused all his energy on feeling the starlight penetrating his body.

I don't know how much time passed; it might have been just a moment, or it might have been a long time.

Suddenly!

"call out--!!!"

A dazzling starlight suddenly burst forth from Mu Chen's body!

The moment the pillar of light appeared, the starlight on the other teenagers in the square dimmed instantly, like fireflies compared to the bright moon.

"That...that's Mu Chen?!"

Boom-! ! !

"In the name of my judgment, I grant you the path of the Spirit."

The sound faded, its lingering echoes resonating, and the world fell silent.

As expected, there's nothing to be surprised or delighted about.

Mu Chen looked up at the ancient bronze mirror's illusory reflection hanging high above, a smile playing on his lips.

The gazes cast around them included envy, awe, and an undisguised jealousy.

Mu Chen seemed oblivious. How could a sparrow know the ambition of a swan? When he returned from the Spiritual Path, all these trivial matters before him were like dust.

"Mu Chen." Dean Xiao spoke, his voice still gentle, but with a touch more solemnity.

"You can rest assured about everything in the academy and everything in the pastoral region. The Northern Spirit Academy will always be your support."

"The Spiritual Path is no ordinary path; its dangers far exceed your imagination, and the fall of prodigies is commonplace."

"Remember, there, survival comes first. Only by surviving can you have the right to talk about the future, become a student of one of the five major academies, or even... a regional overlord!"

Mu Chen smiled and said, "I will keep the Dean's teachings in mind."

As for the barking of that guy surnamed Liu next door, just pretend you didn't hear it, and deal with it later!

Dean Xiao nodded and said no more.

Half an incense stick's time passed in an instant, and the illusory image in the bronze mirror gradually faded, revealing a portal entirely constructed of dazzling starlight that slowly rose up.

The Gate to the Stars! The entrance to the Spiritual Path!

A soft yet irresistible beam of starlight descended from the star gate, precisely enveloping Mu Chen.

His robes fluttered slightly in the starlight as he gazed down at the square below.

Ascending to the foot of the star gate, surrounded by starlight.

Mu Chen raised his hand and waved it gently downwards.

"Goodbye, Dean, Professor Mo, and fellow students."

The sound was calm and carried clearly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he withdrew his gaze, turned around, and faced the dazzling and mysterious starry sky gate. Without the slightest hesitation, he took a step out.

Let my legend begin on this spiritual path!
