Chapter 104: Witnesses of the Times (Part 1)

Su Chen opened the Book of Reversal of Fate
[In your ninth life, on the surface you are an ordinary member of the Sun Devouring Holy Land, but in reality you are a royal descendant of the ancient race of the Sun Devouring Holy Land. However, you discover that the elders of those ancient races are outwardly respectful to you, but in reality they only use you as a puppet for revenge. You don't care, as long as they can be used by you, even if they have other purposes.]
You began your scheme, using the opportunity to eliminate many of the true disciples of the Devouring Sun Holy Land. Just when you thought everything was going smoothly, a shocking piece of news arrived: the Holy Lord of the Devouring Sun Holy Land had discovered your secret. To avoid revealing your greatest secret, you chose to disclose information about the remnants of the ancient race, gaining Zhou Hao's trust. You then pretended to be controlled by Zhou Hao, maneuvering between the Northwest and Northwest regions, single-handedly instigating conflict between them.
Finally, a great war erupted between the two regions. Using your identity as a member of the Devouring Sun Holy Land, you killed the divine body of White Cloud City, causing White Cloud City to erupt in hatred towards the Devouring Sun Holy Land. In the battle between the old Holy King of White Cloud City and the Devouring Sun Holy Land, you secretly reaped the benefits, your calculations flawless. With your reborn body, you slew a Holy Land.
But...you didn't expect that your changes would be known to your younger sister, Zhou Hanchan, so early on. No matter how much you improved, you could never replace the ordinary brother she once held in her heart. Zhou Hanchan possessed a mysterious inheritance; perhaps you sensed it long ago, but...perhaps you were still Zhou Chen. Although your memories from thousands of years dominated, Zhou Chen's love for his sister never disappeared. You chose to let Zhou Hanchan have her way, knowing that a more terrifying entity was weaving everything in the Western Regions behind it all, and you were powerless to resist.
In this life, you instigated a war between the Western and Northern Regions, destroyed a sacred land, and rewrote the course of history single-handedly. Although your life was less than two hundred years, you stirred up a ripple in the long river of time.
Evaluation: Purple Two-Star
Reward: 20,000 Reversal Points
Su Chen's eyes widened when he saw the final reward.
Twenty thousand Fate-Defying Points!
Though his life in this life was short, he rewrote the destinies of countless people.
The tides of history were thus turned.
"All in... or not all in?"
Gaining so many Fate-Defying Points at once left Su Chen hesitant.
There was still a big boss in Central Continent.
His sister in this life was no pushover either.
If he were to be reborn in the Heavenly Profound Domain again.
The situation seemed dire.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Chen did not use up all his Fate-Defying Points.
[Aptitude: 0 (+)
Comprehension: 0 (+)
Family Background: 0 (+)
Mental State: 450]
Aptitude +5000
Comprehension +5000
Family Background +5000
He still had 5000 points left, which Su Chen kept in case of unforeseen circumstances.
Even if he were to meet with misfortune and die young, with his accumulated power over many lifetimes, he could quickly rise again with five thousand points of rebellious destiny.
"This life...to become a saint!"
Su Chen turned a new page.
.......
"?"
Su Chen opened his eyes. A beautiful woman, as lovely as a flower, lay in his arms, exuding charm and allure.
The surrounding environment was elegant, rich in spiritual energy, every corner constructed of high-grade spirit stones, adorned with auspicious dragons and phoenixes, like a dream.
Su Chen quickly searched his memories.
Thankfully,
he hadn't encountered a protagonist like Lin Zhan in this life.
In this life, he is the youngest son of the current patriarch of the Wang family, a sacred clan in Central State.
Wang Chen, a young genius of Central State, has already reached the King level of the Profound Realm at a young age.
The Wang family of Central State... A vague impression surfaced in Su Chen's mind. Among the alchemy prodigies who made it to the end in the alchemy competition, one came from the Wang family of Central State, overshadowing many other alchemy prodigies in Central State.
This is an ancient and powerful family. Their ancestor was a Great Saint, and the family boasts several Saint Kings and a Pill Saint-level alchemist, making them incredibly prosperous in Central State.
The woman lying beside him comes from a powerful force, one of its heirs, who offered herself to him in order to establish a connection with him.
Su Chen was already used to such things.
What caught Su Chen's attention in this life was his older brother, Wang Yunfei, hailed as a young emperor. He possessed the potential to become an emperor, an innate, forbidden divine body, and his birth was marked by extraordinary phenomena. The most ancient and mysterious power in the Central Continent, the Imperial Palace, even approached Wang Yunfei when he was ten, offering to take him as its successor. This was a power that had truly produced emperors; Wang Yunfei was undoubtedly the number one person in the Central Continent. Consequently, Su Chen's status as his younger brother also rose dramatically, with countless people vying to curry favor with him.
However, Su Chen felt something was amiss. The potential to become an emperor… well… that wasn't exactly a compliment.
The beautiful woman beside him let out a soft moan. Su Chen rose without a trace of emotion and headed towards the Wang family's library, which contained all the secrets the Wang family could uncover.
He was in the Central Continent in this life, but Su Chen hadn't forgotten that there was another big boss there.
In his previous life, he had heard that the Jade Clan had declined after the First War, but Su Chen didn't know the specifics or who ultimately acquired the Imperial Scripture, the Spirit Communication Divine Art.
"Two hundred years have passed since my death in my previous life!"
Su Chen hadn't found any news about the Jade Clan yet, but he had found news about his previous life.
The remnant of the ancient race of the Devouring Sun Holy Land single-handedly instigated a conflict between two domains, resulting in the deaths of over ten Saints from both domains, the decline of several Saint-level lineages, and even the complete disappearance of the Devouring Sun Holy Land from the river of time.
There were also records stating that this ancient remnant possessed the Ancient Gluttonous Body, cultivated evil arts, and could kill other geniuses, devouring their essence. If another evil art were to emerge, the five continents would unite to kill it.
"A peerless demon, extremely dangerous, potentially threatening to overthrow the world..." This was the Wang family's assessment of Su Chen's previous life.
Clearly, Su Chen's actions in his previous life had thoroughly alerted many sects in the Tianxuan Domain, who were determined to nip the danger in the bud.
However... Su Chen knew that the real danger might not lie in his identity from his previous life.
Stepping back from the chessboard, Su Chen began to ponder the truth behind his death in his past life.
"Perhaps... someone wants to use me to confuse the world's sects!"
"Truly a brilliant tactic!"
Su Chen admired him.
More and more clues began to surface, and Su Chen vaguely understood the mastermind's purpose: to have him stir up chaos in the world, causing people to overlook something, or to help someone conceal their identity.
More specifics, however, remained unknown to Su Chen.
Presumably, the schemes of those old monsters were far from simple.
Su Chen continued his search for information about the Jade Clan, and finally, his efforts paid off. A week later, he successfully found the Jade Clan's records.
The Jade Clan's Great Sage Ancestor, wielding a Quasi-Emperor weapon, invaded the Western Regions. During a battle with a Great Sage from the Western Regions, he vanished without a trace, and even the Quasi-Emperor weapon never returned to the Jade Clan.
At the same time, the Jade Clan suffered annihilation!
