THE_WORDSMITH

Loose cultivator Shi Lang gradually found himself in the realm of invincibility. However, when he finally tried to ascend to the higher realm, the spirit of the world was nearly exhausted.

So, between his ascension to a new world or the well-being of his home, he chose the latter and sacrificed his life to save the world.

Nobody knew what he gave up for the world, and he told no one. 

Although his sacrifice had gone unsung, there was still someone who witnessed everything.  A treasured artifact he carried on his body preserved his soul and let it escape a tragic end.

Eons passed.

The human race stepped out from the age of cultivation into an age of stellar conquest. 

The spirit energy in the world was now scarce, but humans found other means to excel.

In this highly-advanced time, Shi Lang's soul has found a chance to be reborn. 

What happens when an ancient cultivator that neared the level of a deity before his first death gets a second chance at life in the space age?

Ace Of Terrans

Inside the meeting hall, Tian Long had just questioned if Shi Lang had gone mad for guarding the place for an year.

Hou Bing asked, "What do you mean?"

Zither Soul sighed and said, "The ritual is very hard, and one needs to enter a state where their brain does not think about anything but the person they are guarding. They cannot close their eyes and cannot eat anything. Even the intake of spiritual energy is forbidden."

Everyone opened their eyes wide and began to question if they should disturb Shi Lang or things like that. The reason they were so worried was because if the mind of a cultivator goes into a stagnant situation, there would be a chance for it to be lost in the spiral and not recover for ages.

There were both type of people in the meeting hall, those who did not want to disturb Shi Lang, and those who wanted to wake him up. None of them meant him any harm but they had their own reasons.

Waking Up.
