Chapter 1631 Retrieving Tian Yi"s Memories
"W-what the h.e.l.l is going on here? The Primal Monarch is that human"s adoptive father?" The Divine Fox of Grand Prophecy was bewildered by this information. She had countless questions, but she didn"t dare to ask them.
"Since you don"t remember me, I guess it"s safe to a.s.sume you don"t remember our promise. Did you wander to the Primal Expanse again by accident, too?" The Primal Monarch looked at Yuan.
He nodded, "Yes, I came here by accident. I wanted to look for you because I was told you could take me out of this place. How long have you been watching me?"
The Primal Monarch sighed, "Since you used my power at the Phoenixes" territory."
"Your power…? You mean Immortal Monarch"s Dominion?" Yuan raised an eyebrow.
"If that"s what you call it, sure. However, that power—the ability to command Primals and Predators—was originally mine, to begin with." The Primal Monarch revealed.
Yuan wasn"t too surprised to learn that the Immortal Monarch had inherited his power from another source, as it seemed unlikely for a human to naturally possess such control over beasts in the first place.
The Primal Monarch suddenly gestured to Yuan and said, "Let me see the kind of life you"ve lived after leaving the Primal Expanse."
"Huh? You want to see my memories? But I don"t have all of them."
"That doesn"t mean anything to me. While you don"t remember it now, they"re definitely somewhere in there, so all I need to do is take it out from hiding."
"You can do that…?" Yuan didn"t think of this until it was mentioned.
"Does it have any side effects?"
He was worried that it might affect his fate.
"No… my appearance in the Primal Expanse isn"t a coincidence or an accident. It was fate that brought me here, so the Primal Monarch retrieving my memories should also be considered fate."
"If I was an inexperienced brat like yourself, you might lose all of your memories and become a vegetable." The Primal Monarch calmly said.
"But you"re not… right?" Yuan swallowed nervously.
"You really don"t change, huh?" A subtle smile appeared on the Primal Monarch"s face.
The next moment, he pointed two fingers at Yuan"s forehead before shooting a warm beam of light directly into his head.
Primal Monarch raised an eyebrow the following moment as he thought inwardly, "This brat reincarnated more than once…"
Despite his interest and curiosity, the Primal Monarch didn"t touch the memories that didn"t belong to Tian Yi.
After retrieving Tian Yi"s memories, the Primal Monarch observed his entire life after leaving the Primal Expanse.
Sometime later, the Primal Monarch lowered his hand and said, "I understand the situation. Although I was able to retrieve most of Tian Yi"s memories, I was unable to retrieve the final moments of his life due to some interference. How do you feel?"
"I remember now…" Yuan muttered in a somewhat dazed voice.
After the Primal Monarch pulled out Tian Yi"s memories, he remembered everything from his childhood.
Tian Yi was born into a wealthy and influential family. However, he lacked the talents necessary to survive there. In fact, he didn"t have any cultivation talents, which was a complete surprise to Yuan since the Immortal Monarch was the fourth reincarnation, so he should"ve been a genius like his previous incarnations.
Due to his lack of talent, Tian Yi was abandoned by his parents and exiled from the family at the age of six, leaving him to wander the streets as a foundling. However, that life didn"t last long, as his family didn"t want him to stay in the same city, so they forced him out into the wilderness, leaving him to fend for himself.
Shortly after Tian Yi entered the wilderness, he encountered a powerful magical beast that chased him to a nearby Endless Beast Den. At that moment, two cultivators were locked in a fierce battle, causing the destruction of the Endless Beast Den.
The destruction of the Endless Beast Den created a rift, and in his desperation, Tian Yi entered it, not caring where it might lead him.
Once he came out on the other end, Tian Yi found himself in an unfamiliar world that reeked of wild beasts and blood.
"Where am I…?" Tian Yi muttered as he frantically looked around.
Suddenly, a rough voice resounded, "I came here as soon as I noticed the scent of a human, but what is this? A human this small… You won"t even be able to fill the gap between my teeth!"
Tian Yi turned to the source of the voice and was immediately scared s.h.i.+tless when he saw a ma.s.sive black dragon hovering in the sky.
"This human is mine!" Another voice suddenly resounded, followed by the appearance of a Phoenix with fiery purple flames.
"You dare covet my prey?! I"ll tear you to shreds!" The black Dragon roared.
"Not before I roast you for dinner!" The purple Phoenix laughed arrogantly.
Their aura fiercely crashed with each other. Unable to bear the pressure, Tian Yi fainted instantly.
Tian Yi didn"t know how long he had been asleep for, but by the time he woke up, neither the Phoenix nor Dragon could be seen, almost as if they"d vanished magically.
"This is the first time I"ve seen a human like you."
An unfamiliar but calm voice suddenly resounded.
Jumpscared by the voice, Tian Yi jumped to his feet and began running away without looking at the source of the voice.
"Where do you think you are going?"
The voice that was far away from Tian Yi a moment ago suddenly sounded like it was right behind him.
Tian Yi swiftly realized that running wasn"t an option and surrendered to his fate.
He stopped running and fell to his knees.
"Go ahead and eat me. I don"t care anymore."
"Why would I eat you? Even a thousand of you wouldn"t fill half my stomach. Eating you would only arouse more hunger." The voice laughed.
At this moment, Tian Yi turned around to face the voice, and to his bewilderment, the voice belonged to a child who didn"t look any older than himself.
As a matter of fact, this child didn"t simply look to be the same age. He looked exactly like Tian Yi, as if he was a perfect clone.
