Reincarnation!

On a certain part of the chaos realm, where the gods have settled in, so that they can watch over humanity and guard them. There exists the greatest, wisest and most ancient of them all. The all - knowing, Xūkōng Tiānlóng/ Heavenly Dragon of The Void.

He has been at his duty for so long, so long that he saw how the world and humans change every day, every year, every century. Intrigued by this, he got even more interested in humans. But, due to this pure curiosity, he one day felt this squirming, uncomfortable sensation in his chest.

For the first time, the Heavenly Dragon felt what 'jealousy' feels like. Yes, he was jealous. Jealous to the tiny beings who can live their lives stress free, worry free. He also wanted to live that kind of life, he wanted a peaceful life, a life where he can finally live a life for himself and not others. But he can't. He's the Heavenly Dragon after all. The strongest, greatest, wisest, all-knowing, Heavenly Dragon of the Void.

But then again, what's the use of being powerful, peerless, and unrivaled? Great powers comes with great responsibilities and due to that, it made him lonely. Thus, one day, a peculiar idea came into mind. If he can grant everyone's wish, does that mean that his wish can be granted by himself too?!

Thoughts alone made him excited so much that he made a wish. A wish that he didn't expect would be granted. What was his wish? He wished to die, be free, and to become a human being. He knew that it would upset and break the balance. The balance that he's been guarding and protecting all these hundreds and thousands of years. The realm's balance. Oh, and of course, he knew that his disappearance would create a very severe damage that will affect the whole universe. But he didn't care anymore. He wanted to live a normal, peaceful, carefree life.

You might call him selfish, but he doesn't care about it. And will never even bother about it.

When his life as the Heavenly Dragon of the Void ended, he finally entered the reincarnation cycle. Due to him sending his own soul to the reincarnation cycle triggers a taboo. The Law of Nature is absolute, whether they are Gods or the Heavenly Dragon himself must follow it. Everything occurs with a natural cause, hence, this event caused the Path of Samsara, the path that should have been straight now split into multiple paths.

(A/n: Samsara, the cycle of life and death that was caused by karma. Buddhists believes that through karma and enlightenment, they could achieve nirvana, the end to one's suffering.)

Meanwhile, at the Palace of The Overseers (Jiāndū Zhě Gōngdiàn)"Huh?! What is happening? Why is the Path splitting?! Why is this happening?! This never, and shouldn't happen!" An old monk yelled, whilst awakening from his long closed-door meditation. The man is called Lao Yang, the Overseer of Samsara (Lunhui Dujun).

"What's the matter, Lao Yang?" Asked by another old monk, who was startled by his sudden and unexpected yell. This monk's name is Lao Jun, the Cave Hermit (Dongxue Yinshi).

(E/n: Lao as in 老, which means old.)

"Don't tell me that this is one of your shenanigan pranks again?" Said by another monk who came in, with a face full of distrust, he then shouted in anger "I won't be fooled again by you, you old fool!". This hot-blooded tempered monk is called Lao Ye, the Dragon Guard (Long Weidui).

These three, -Lunhui Dujun: Lao Yang, Dongxue Yinshi: Lao Jun, and Long Weidui: Lao Ye, are the overseers of the Path of Samsara.

"What should we do?" Asked by Lao Jun as his face and voice is painted with worry.

"There's nothing we can do" Lao Yang replied while shaking his head.

"This has never happened before and only the Gods have the power to fix this, as this is something out of our hands!" Lao Ye followed.

"Let's just hope that this won't affect the lower realm, and hope that this will be resolved as soon as possible or else it would cause a great damage that will destroy and end the world that we know as of now." Lao Yang said full of worry as he knows that this would affect the time-space balance and the borders of each realm. Especially, the time. Because if the time sped up, then the things that should happen later will happen sooner than expected.

On the other hand, the reincarnation of Tianlong has been successful. His memories has been erased and a new body started to form for the new soul. However, another soul- no, another personality has also formed. A counterpart of his ancient, primordial soul that can see through one's heart.

His first personality that he developed was righteous. A personality full of virtue, morals, honor, and dignity. While the other one is a bloodthirsty personality that can be said to be similar to that of a demon. As all of this converge into one, a 'normal' human was created.

Time passed by, as though it was time for him to leave the shell his trapped into, the young child saw a light and instinctively reached out for it as it was telling him to grab it. As he gets closer, he started to hear everything, clearly but slowly.

Painful grunts and wails of a woman, a man's voice full of worry, he clearly hear them all, though he couldn't understand what they're saying. As he get out of the 'shell' while trying to reach out for the light, everything became bright. Slowly, he opened his eyes and he saw a new world.

There were new and unknown faces he never seen, language that he cannot understand and sounds very foreign, the child's mind was full of curiosity.

This is how the new life of Tianlong, the most powerful, greatest and all-knowing Primordial Deity, has begun!
