Lin Moyu then arrived beside Xiao Mei, and space distorted slightly, enveloping her.

In the eyes of outsiders, Xiao Mei remained motionless, but in reality, she had already entered another dimension.

Suddenly seeing Lin Moyu, surprise appeared in Xiao Mei's eyes. "Big Brother."

"Did you also ascend the Buddha Ladder?"

Lin Moyu smiled and asked, "How did you smell me?"

Xiao Mei said, "I don't know, I just smelled you."

Lin Moyu asked, "Is your nose usually this sharp?"

"Can you smell things that others can't?" Xiao Mei thought for a moment and replied, "Yes."

"I can always smell some unusual scents. Once, I smelled a very special scent."

"Then I found an injured little rabbit. Do you know, Big Brother? That little rabbit could actually talk."

Xiao Mei was somewhat excited when she said this. In fact, in the Buddha Realm, it was not rare for small animals to speak. Under the radiance of the Buddha Light, many plants and animals would develop spirituality.

They would transform from ordinary animals into Spirit Beasts. After becoming Spirit Beasts, their souls would be further enhanced, allowing them to speak. This situation was even more common in the Buddha Kingdoms within the Buddha Realm.

There, the Buddha Light was stronger, making it easier to enlighten their spirituality. Lin Moyu smiled and asked, "Then what did that little rabbit tell you?"

Xiao Mei said naively, "I asked the little rabbit why it was injured."

"The little rabbit said a dragon wanted to eat it, and it got injured while escaping." Lin Moyu continued to ask, "And then?"

Xiao Mei said, "Later, the little rabbit left. I even told it to be careful and not get eaten by a dragon again. But how could there be a dragon in the Buddha Kingdom?"

"Wasn't that dragon killed by the Kingdom Lord?"

Lin Moyu smiled without answering. "Xiao Mei, Big Brother wants to check your illness."

Xiao Mei seemed to trust Lin Moyu very much and did not doubt his words at all. "Big Brother can even practice medicine?"

Lin Moyu said, "Yes. Does Xiao Mei trust Big Brother?"

Xiao Mei said, "Of course I do. The scent on Big Brother is very pleasant."

"People with pleasant scents are never bad people." She really was a simple girl.

Lin Moyu raised his hand and pressed his palm against Xiao Mei's forehead. "Xiao Mei, relax. Don't be afraid!"

Xiao Mei nodded and closed her eyes, looking very obedient.

Lin Moyu moved his consciousness and entered Xiao Mei's Soul World in an extremely gentle manner.

With his strength, he could have easily forced his way in, but that would have caused damage to Xiao Mei's Soul World. Only when Xiao Mei did not resist and was willing could he send a trace of his consciousness inside.

Xiao Mei was an ordinary person, and her Soul World was a void, containing nothing.

After Lin Moyu's consciousness entered, he immediately saw Xiao Mei's soul. After seeing it, Lin Moyu immediately withdrew from Xiao Mei's Soul World; it took no more than half a second.

His power was simply too strong. Even just a trace of his consciousness was more than Xiao Mei's Soul World could withstand. If the time had been slightly longer, Xiao Mei's Soul World would have been damaged. Half a second was enough for Lin Moyu to see clearly.

As expected, it really was a Natural Soul. Lin Moyu's expression turned slightly serious at this moment.

The scene he saw in those half seconds was different from what he had thought. He had previously assumed Xiao Mei possessed some special cultivation physique. Perhaps it wasn't the top-tier Natural Jade Soul like Xiao Yue's, but in this era, anyone with a special physique was rare. Moreover, such people usually had extremely strong fortune. If he could take her as a disciple, it would be beneficial for both sides.

However, Xiao Mei's soul was not like that. Xiao Mei indeed possessed a natural soul, but she did not have a special physique. Her soul was a Dao Soul. As for what a Dao Soul was, Lin Moyu had only occasionally seen it in records; there were not many records concerning Dao Souls. A Dao Soul was a special type of natural soul. It was not truly born natural, but rather transformed from acquired to natural.

To be specific, it was when a practitioner at the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable chose to undergo the Soldier Disintegration to reincarnate and recultivate. They would live another life, and at the moment of Soldier Disintegration, they would concentrate all their power into their soul, forcibly utilizing the power of heaven and earth during reincarnation to revert their soul from acquired to natural. Therefore, this type of soul was called a Dao Soul.

The secret technique of Soldier Disintegration reincarnation was basically lost today; only some ancient sects and holy lands still retained it. Moreover, this secret technique was too dangerous and extremely demanding. Aside from requiring a large amount of precious materials, it also required the Dao Venerable to perform it at their peak. Even so, out of ten people who attempted Soldier Disintegration, nine would die—a life of nine deaths and one survival. If one waited until they were old and no longer at their peak, it was ten deaths and no survival.

Normally, no Dao Venerable would choose to do this. To make the soul break through to natural, besides Soldier Disintegration, one had to enter the Great Dao Realm. But now, the Great Dao was inaccessible, which is why some chose Soldier Disintegration reincarnation, allowing their soul to be natural from the very beginning, and then walking the path of cultivation again, aiming for the Great Dao!

Lin Moyu did not know which Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable Xiao Mei was in her past life, but regardless, she was worthy of his respect. Anyone who could make the decision to undergo Soldier Disintegration reincarnation was not an ordinary person. He just didn't know if that Dao Venerable could recover the memories of their past life after the Soldier Disintegration. If they could recover them, then it was a success. If they could not, it was a failure. Xiao Mei had become a brand new person and was no longer who she was in her past life. Regardless, meeting me is fate!

Lin Moyu's gaze shifted slightly as he checked Xiao Mei's fortune. Sure enough, just as he had thought, Xiao Mei's fortune was soaring and immensely vast. After all, in her past life, Xiao Mei was a powerhouse at the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable, and after Soldier Disintegration, she had become a natural soul; how could her fortune not be strong?

Xiao Mei's fortune was countless times stronger than that of the Dragon Subduing Ancient Heavenly Buddha and the Poison Dragon. The result of those two guys wanting to harm Xiao Mei was predictable. Xiao Mei's fortune was too strong, causing a backlash against the Buddha and the dragon, which was how the accident happened. He happened to arrive, and Xiao Mei happened to smell his scent. The causality involved naturally had the leading component of fortune. Benefiting from this, Lin Moyu had already decided to take Xiao Mei away.

With such strong fortune, once she became his disciple, how important it would be for Yudao City and himself—Lin Moyu knew this all too well. But before that, there was one more thing to do.

Chapter 3223: With Great Fortune, Would She Still Be Here?

According to the information he knew, a Dao Venerable who underwent Soldier Disintegration reincarnation would have a corresponding Reincarnation Treasure. This Reincarnation Treasure was the key to whether the reincarnation could truly be successful.

Success or failure in Soldier Disintegration reincarnation could be viewed in two steps. The first step was to survive and successfully transform the soul from acquired to natural. The second step was to recover the former cultivation and memories, and this second step relied on the Reincarnation Treasure.

Now Xiao Mei could be considered to have succeeded halfway, but the other half was still missing. If the second step could not be completed, then Xiao Mei would be a brand new life, unrelated to that Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable from before the reincarnation. Strictly speaking, the Soldier Disintegration reincarnation would be considered a failure.

In fact, even if Xiao Mei could not retrieve the Reincarnation Treasure, relying on her natural Dao Soul, her cultivation speed would be extremely fast. At most, in a few thousand years, Xiao Mei would be able to return to the Dao Venerable realm, and then after a few tens of thousands of years, she could return to the Ninth Realm of Dao Venerable. But this would not be perfect; it would waste a large amount of time. The Reincarnation Treasure contained not only cultivation but also fortune, as well as the cultivation insights and memories of the past. These were all very precious, especially the fortune.

If she obtained the Reincarnation Treasure, her fortune would also increase significantly, and the probability of breaking through to the Great Dao Realm would also increase greatly. The Reincarnation Treasure would scatter along with the Soldier Disintegration reincarnation. If there were no accidents, the distance between them would not be too far. Moreover, there was a causal connection between the reincarnated person and the Reincarnation Treasure, so sooner or later they would meet, unless some unexpected events occurred.

Lin Moyu guessed that since Xiao Mei reincarnated here, the Reincarnation Treasure was highly likely to be in the Dragon Subduing Buddha Kingdom. Of course, there was also a certain probability that it would be in other nearby Buddha Kingdoms. Lin Moyu withdrew his palm, and Xiao Mei immediately woke up.

She looked at Lin Moyu with her innocent big eyes. "Big Brother, can my illness be cured?"

Lin Moyu smiled. "It can be cured, but now is not the time."

"Xiao Mei, do you think the Dragon Subduing Ancient Heavenly Buddha is a good person or a bad person?"

Xiao Mei thought for a moment. "Mother told me that the Kingdom Lord is a very remarkable person. He killed that dragon, allowing the people here to live stably without having to worry and be afraid all day."

Xiao Mei did not say whether he was a good or bad person, only that he was a remarkable person. Everything she knew was learned from her mother's words. A child under ten years old didn't really have many thoughts of her own.

Lin Moyu said, "Big Brother wants to know Xiao Mei's own thoughts."

Xiao Mei tilted her head and looked towards the direction of the Buddha Hall, with a hint of hesitation. When she saw the Kingdom Lord just now, she had smelled some scents. These scents were not pleasant; they were not fragrant. A Natural Dao Soul was very sensitive.

Although Xiao Mei did not cultivate, she could still have various feelings. To her, this feeling was a scent. Different scents could distinguish between good and evil, kindness and malice. Of course, this good or evil was only for her personally.

To her, Lin Moyu was fragrant and smelled very good. What she called unpleasant was actually a very euphemistic way of saying it was stinky. The one she saw was not the Dragon Subduing Ancient Heavenly Buddha, but the malicious Poison Dragon; how could it not stink?

Lin Moyu said, "Actually, the one just now was not the Dragon Subduing Ancient Heavenly Buddha. The real Dragon Subduing Ancient Heavenly Buddha has been in the Buddha Hall the whole time and hasn't come out. Xiao Mei, smell again. What is the scent of the person in the Buddha Hall like?"

Xiao Mei sniffed hard, and then her little face became very ugly. "It's so stinky!"

Lin Moyu couldn't help but laugh; Xiao Mei's reaction was clearly instinctive. He continued to ask, "Is it smellier than the one from before?"

Xiao Mei covered her nose and nodded vigorously. "Yes, so much smellier."

Lin Moyu smiled. "Then hurry and plug your nose so you don't get stunk to death."

Just as he had thought, the Dragon Subduing Ancient Heavenly Buddha in the Buddha Hall was too hypocritical. He appeared to have some kindness, but doing evil deeds while holding on to kindness was the true great evil. The scent of such a person was even smellier, far worse than a truly evil person like the Poison Dragon.
