Who Let Him Cultivate?! (WX)-Chapter 644: Li Haoran’s Nascent Soul
Initially, Mu Baiyi didn’t care about who the reincarnation of Qin Haoran was. After all, given Qin Haoran’s impoverished state, how could there be any money left in his inheritance? Anything valuable would have been sold off long ago; how could it remain until now?
However, he couldn’t simply tell the three vice creed leaders about this. If they learn that the Nine-Netherworlds Creed has no money, it would be a disaster.
Moreover, the three vice creed leaders are more senior than me. If they want to fight over Qin Haoran’s legacy, let them. Whoever wins is none of my concern.
But things are different now. The Heavenly Court Creed’s power is evident. Qin Yanyan must be the reincarnation, regardless of whether she is or not!
Gender isn’t an issue. Besides, no one stipulated that reincarnation must preserve the same gender.
Furthermore, the Heavenly Court Creed has Dou Heavenly Sovereign and the Phoenix Ancient Ancestor. Aren’t they far more powerful than the three vice creed leaders? The person they found must be reliable.
If they can truly find the reincarnation of Creed Leader Qin, that would be perfect! It will be the first confirmed case proving that reincarnation does exist!
There’s no better news than this for the Nine-Netherworlds Creed. Haven’t we worked hard to build the Fengdu Ghost City for this exact purpose?
Seeing that no more useful information could be gained from Mu Baiyi, Yun Zhi said goodbye and directly stood up to leave.
As the Heavenly Court Creed members departed one after another, Mu Baiyi and the protectors finally exhaled a sigh of relief.
Creed Leader Yun’s presence is too overpowering. Even sitting opposite her made my legs feel weak, much less the protectors standing behind me.
“Whew, they’re finally gone.” Mu Baiyi hadn’t dared to breathe heavily, remaining on edge the entire time, terrified that he might mispeak and anger those two ancient powerhouses.

Riding a cloud, Yun Zhi brought Lu Yang and the others back to the Dao-Seeking Sect. Only after the four elders who had helped to keep up appearances left did they analyze the origins of the Nine-Netherworlds Creed.
Matters involving immortals were dangerous. It would do more harm than good for the elders to find out, so it was best for them to remain unaware. Since Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were already involved, it didn’t matter if they knew.
“The Nine-Netherworlds Creed’s role is different from what I predicted. Originally, I thought the goal of establishing the Nine-Netherworlds Creed was the same as that of the Everlasting Creed—to condense an Incipient Dao Fruit. However, judging from the story of the Nine-Netherworlds Creed’s founding patriarch, the ‘Reincarnation Incipient Dao Fruit’ existed first, and then the Nine-Netherworlds Creed came into being.
“Who exactly condensed the Reincarnation Incipient Dao Fruit?”
Lu Yang proposed, “Why don’t we ask Junior Brother Li. As the ninth incarnation, he should know more than Mu Baiyi.”
Li Haoran was the strongest evidence of the existence of “reincarnation.” Moreover, he possessed Qin Haoran’s memories, so he definitely knew more than Mu Baiyi.
“Very well.”
Yun Zhi acted decisively. No sooner said than done, she brought everyone to the fifth peak.

“In seclusion?”
Li Haoran’s cave abode was tightly shut, with dust accumulated at the entrance, indicating he had been in seclusion for at least a month.
“He’s preparing to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.” Yun Zhi scanned with her spiritual consciousness to discern what Li Haoran was doing inside. “Judging by his cultivation progress, he’ll break through in half a day. Let’s wait.”
“Alright.”
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye for cultivators.
“He’s about to break through.”
They detected a fluctuating aura emanating from deep within the cave abode. This was the precursor to a Nascent Soul breakthrough. The cave abode’s aura waves rose and fell like a roaring tsunami or a volcano suppressed for too long, needing only an outlet to erupt!
Boom!
The moment the aura waves reached the critical point, the power hidden within the golden core burst forth completely like a volcanic eruption. However, the terrifyingly dense fiery power didn’t surge out of the cave abode. The Dao-Seeking Sect provided its disciples with extremely high-grade cave abodes that could contain the aura of a golden core shattering to form a nascent soul.
Meng Jingzhou was an exception; he had done it deliberately.
The terrifying flaming power returned to its master’s body. The cave abode’s door rumbled open, and Li Haoran’s hearty laughter echoed. “Hahaha, I’ve finally reached the Nascent Soul Stage!”
Then, he saw Yun Zhi and the others sitting at the entrance, and his laughter cut off abruptly.
“Big...Big Senior Sister, hello.”
“Mmm. Hello to you too.”
Li Haoran, “...”
Yun Zhi’s sudden appearance had thrown him off, rendering him speechless.
“Stabilize your aura first. One must avoid extreme joy or sorrow right after a breakthrough.”
“Oh, alright.” Li Haoran quickly sat cross-legged on the spot and silently recited a Heart-Calming Incantation to stabilize his aura and regulate his body.
When he opened his eyes again, he was greeted by Meng Jingzhou’s large face, which nearly made him jump out of his skin. “Senior Brother Meng, what are you doing? You scared me to death.”
“Discerning what kind of nascent soul you condensed to see if I can borrow it.”
“And have you discerned it?”
“No.”
The corner of Li Haoran’s mouth twitched. Is this something you can discern just by getting close? He pushed Meng Jingzhou’s large face away. “Then step back; I’ll demonstrate it for you.”
Since Big Senior Sister is here, it’s a great opportunity to show off.
Li Haoran released his nascent soul. Unlike anyone else’s, it was red and fully composed of flames.
“A nascent soul that has absorbed two types of true fires?” Yun Zhi and Jiang Lianyi had seen many Nascent Soul cultivators, especially Jiang Lianyi, who had witnessed countless prodigies and their nascent souls.
Except for Lu Yang’s, Meng Jingzhou’s, and Man Gu’s.
“Fire Spirit Root cultivators have a probability of condensing this type of nascent soul. Since it’s wholly made of flames and resembles an infant, the cultivation world typically calls it—”
Lu Yang blurted out, “Red Kid?”
Yun Zhi shot Lu Yang a glance. “Fire Infant.
“But this is just a matter of naming. Just as Junior Brother Meng’s Single’s Spirit Root is also called the Pure Yang Spirit Root, you can also call the Fire Infant ‘Red Kid’ if you wish.”
“Burn!” Li Haoran shouted. Under the influence of the Fire Infant, his body burst into blazing true fire, deterring any enemy from approaching.
“Does your nascent soul have other functions?” Meng Jingzhou asked again.
Li Haoran laughed heartily, retracting the true fire. “Of course, it does. But they’re all theoretical. Wait, let me gather myself.” He knitted his brows and remained silent for a long time, then withdrew his nascent soul into his body. Gritting his teeth, he let out an agonizing sound.
With a loud bang, Li Haoran’s body exploded into pieces. His limbs, torso, and head flew off in different directions, giving Meng Jingzhou a huge fright.
Did Junior Brother Li finally succumb to the pain of being a kept man and commit suicide out of depression?
Just then, Li Haoran flew about freely in the air, even somersaulting and rolling. He explained with a chuckle, “Senior Brother Meng, don’t panic. This is my nascent soul’s ability.”
As Li Haoran spoke, his limbs and torso moved independently, striking different poses, clearly under someone’s control.
“The Rebirth Golden Core allowed me to regenerate severed limbs. Upon reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, this ability has been enhanced. Even if my body is dismembered like this, I can still control it and recover.
“That said, recovering the head consumes too much energy, so I decided on this.”
The limbs and torso formed a new whole and performed various skills, while Li Haoran’s head stayed at a distance, wearing a smug expression.
“This way, my head won’t get injured.”
