Reincarnation of the God of Medicine
Chapter 215: Arriving at the exam site
Xian Long had misjudged Xiao Tian so much that he was tormenting him with spirit pressure and quite a dangerous hand grip. Fortunately the guardian of the spirit realm gate had prevented Xian Long right before Xiao Tian's spirit shattered into pieces.
Even so, Xian Long remained confused. Because after he released the grip of his hand, Xiao Tian lost his consciousness to the point of not breathing a single bit. When Xiao Tian fell down Xian Long caught his fallen spirit right into his embrace.
When it fell in Xian Long's arms, Xiao Tian's eyes had not been perfectly closed. He could still see Xian Long's face with a somewhat blurry look as it was almost unconscious.
"God what should I do!"xian Long said as he held the spirit of Xiao Tian who had fallen into his embrace.
#####
Spirit palace
Xiao Tian was in a sitting position while cross-legged in a closed state because he was unconscious.
When a finger touches his back, he regains consciousness.
Despite already having consciousness, Xiao Tian had not been able to move his body for some reason. Even his eyes were tightly closed without being able to see what was around him.
While still unable to open his eyes, the first thing Xiao Tian heard was the voice of someone who sounded so unfamiliar.
"Hurry to open his eyes!"
"Good noble," said another mysterious voice.
Shortly after the final sound was heard, a finger-totch was felt at the center of Xiao Tian's back. Simultaneously the first mysterious voice was heard again. In a gentle tone the mysterious person said, "Open your eyes human, now you can open your eyes.
After hearing the mysterious voice that was clearly heard on his ear, Xiao Tian opened his eyes slowly.
After opening his eyes wide he saw a human figure sitting on a magnificent golden chair like a king. The man was holding a golden book that was shining brightly in his right hand. Dressed like an emperor of a Chinese kingdom in the first universe where Xiao Tian lived as Arga.
Wearing a nine-bladed hat, and a yellow dragon-patterned outfit.
On his right and left were two male spirits dressed as a palace eunuch carrying a fan.
When he glanced to the right and to the left, he saw many men dressed in all black and white who were standing while watching him.
After looking in all directions, Xiao Tian immediately understood who the person before him was. And where he is at the moment.
In his heart he said, "Isn't this the spirit palace where the spirits of the dead are judged?"
"Why can I be here?"
"Maybe I'm gone?"
"Be calm, people, our meeting this time is not the same meeting as before. This time you haven't died like our previous encounter," Yan Luo Wang replied as he looked at Xiao Tian.
"Previous meeting?"
"Isn't this the first time we've met?" xiao Tian asked with a frown.
"That's natural, because your memory of the spirit realm has been erased every time you reincarnate," Yan Luo Wang explained.
"That's it, if it wasn't because it was gone. Why was I brought here?" xiao Tian asked as he looked at Yan Luo Wang.
"Didn't you want to do a spirit realm test?"
"You have to meet me first to do the test. Without my consent no human can do the test" Yan Luo Wang said.
"That's it," Xiao Tian said with a sigh.
"Before deciding on the spirit realm examination, I want to apologize for the behavior of my subordinates who almost killed you," Yan Luo Wang said softly.
"Not what is noble, I understand." Xiao Tian said with a smile.
"Okay noble," Xian Long said as he walked out of the group dressed in all white.
Xian Long was as human-like. But the divine aura emanating from his body was completely out of Xiao Tian's reach. When he was in front of Xiao Tian who was sitting cross-legged, Xian Long immediately bowed his head while saying, "I'm sorry for almost killing you."
"What's wrong, I've forgiven you. But can you help me poke this immovable body?" xiao Tian asked as he looked at Xian Long.
"That is beyond my authority, only the noble has power in this palace. Without his consent I dare not do that.
I am just a Xian who has not been recognized as a God" Xian Long said, bowing his head.
"I understand, so Xian is your post and not a surname. Just like Yan Luo Wang who is also a position within the bureaucracy of heaven," Xiao Tian said with a frown.
When he heard Xiao Tian's somewhat mistaken remark, Xian Long straightened it out by saying,
"Xian is not a position like Yan Luo Wang. It is a nickname for a saint. Even though the Xians are unelected, we play an important role in helping the affairs of heaven."
"Then what are the titles of people dressed in all black?" xiao Tian asked as he looked at Xian Long.
"People wearing black served as the God of Death. They were in charge of taking people's lives and delivering them here" Xian Long said.
"Isn't that Bai Wu Chang's job?" xiao Tian asked in astonishment.
"It was indeed Bai Wu Chang's duty, but for the sake of lightening the duties of the Bai Wu Chang who were fewer in number than the humans. The position as the God of Death is used as punishment for humans who have committed sins killing millions of people during seven reincarnations."
"Before they can return to the reincarnation wheel, they must live as the God of Death for millions of years" Xian Long explained.
When Xiao Tian wanted to ask him something else about the bureaucracy of the heavens, Yan Luo Wang interrupted their conversation by saying, "If you've been forgiven, please return to your place Xian Long."
"Okay noble," Xian Long said as he saluted.
After Xian Long returned to his place, Yan Luo Wang looked at Xiao Tian then said,
"Although Wu Kong sent you here, don't expect the exam to be easy. Because our job is to take you to the testing ground of the spirit realm. Whether you graduate or not, it all depends on your luck."
"We must admit, we are indeed quite afraid of Wu Kong. As long as you don't die in our area of power, then we'll be safe. Therefore, decide right now. Whether you're going to keep doing the tests of the spirit realm, or not."
"My answer remains the same, I want to do a spiritual test to free my best friend!" xiao Tian said loudly.
"All right, then. Totter his back again, then teleport him to the place of the twelve holy spirits!" said Yan Luo Wang while staring at the person behind Xiao Tian's back.
After Xiao Tian's back was on the totok, a magic circle appeared under his feet. Then it let out a golden beam that engulfed his body in full. The golden beam was so glare that it made Xiao Tian close his eyes.
After the golden beam disappeared, Xiao Tian opened his eyes. When he opened his eyes, Xiao Tian was already not in the spirit realm palace.
He was on a vast land made of clouds and a golden-coloured sky that stretched as far as the eye could see.
"Where am I?"
"Is this the exam site?"
"Why is this place so empty and deserted?" said Xiao Tian while looking around.
It had been five minutes since Xiao Tian arrived at the holy spirit area. Twelve magic circles with different animal symbols appeared circling Xiao Tian's body.
After stopping circling around Xiao Tian's body, twelve holy spirits emerged from within the magic circle.
"Mouse, Buffalo, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Chicken, Dog, and Bab*i."
"So those who will be my examiners?" xiao Tian said inwardly.
Although it looks like an animal, all holy spirits have spirit pressure that cannot be underestimated. Xiao Tian could not ignore the presence of all of them due to the spirit pressure they kept emitting.
