Number One Under Heaven - Chapter 63: Karma
“Master, you can see one’s Karma right? What is Meng Xiang’s Karma?” Yan Yan asked.
Hearing her name being mentioned, Meng Xiang looks at them with curious eyes, “What is Karma?” She thought.
“Yes, I can see her Karma. But why do you want to know?” Tian Yi did not hide it from her.
“I am curious at to what kind of Karma does the Personal Servant of Master have.” She said.
Karma, something like fate, but it can be controlled to some degree by the individual.
“Well, it’s nothing that important, so I don’t mind telling you. But you should ask Meng Xiang first. It is her Karma after all.”
Karma is not something that important to the point of keeping it a secret. It is like a Soul, but with no physical form. The only ones in this World that can see someone’s Karma are these who have Treasures that enables them to see it, and Gods.
Looking at Meng Xiang, Yan Yan asks, “Can I have your permission to see your Karma?”
“Un.” Meng Xiang nods.
Although she does not know what Karma is, she also wants to know what kind of Karma she has.
“Okay then, Meng Xiang, come over here.” Tian Yi said.
Walking around the table to where Tian Yi was sitting, Meng Xiang stands in front of him.
“Watch carefully because this is your Karma.”
Touching her forehead with his index finger, the tip of his finger glows.
*Pew*
A beam colored in gold instantly shoots out of Meng Xiang’s head, piercing through the roof and into the sky.
“…….” Yan Yan stares with her mouth wide open.
“Her Karma….. What is this?! No wonder why her luck is so Heaven Defying!” She cries in her heart.
Every living creature will have Karma, and the higher it goes, the better their fortune is! Normally, Immortals and Mortals will their Karma only a few inches above their head. However, this little girl here has Karma that pierced through the clouds and straight into the Heaven! With her Divine Sense, she could even tell that Meng Xiang’s Karma is long enough to reach the starry sky! What kind of existence is she to have this kind of Karma?!
The golden beam shooting above Meng Xiang’s head was also called the Karma Meter, and the higher it is, the better one’s fortune is!
People can control their Karma to some extent, and that is increasing its length by doing good deeds. The more good deeds they do, the better their Karma would be! Karma not only last for one lifetime, but it also stays with the individual even after their reincarnation! It does not matter how many times one reincarnates, that individual will take their Karma with them to their next life!
However, if one can increase their Karma, one can also decrease it. If one does evil deeds, then their Karma Meter will drop.
Karma can also change colors depending on the individual’s actions.
Karma has three colors, gold, white, and black. These with gold Karma Meters will have good fortune, and these with white Karma meters have a decent fortune. These with black Karma Meters are mostly evil Cultivators who do evil deeds by killing innocent Mortals. However, just because they have black Karma Meters does not mean that they will have bad luck every day.
Karma also plays a huge role in reincarnation and fate because it carries over to the next life! The worse one’s Karma was, the worse their next life will be, such as being born with no talent or even born as a cripple. However, no matter how high someone’s black Karma Meter was, it will reset itself to white Karma Meter after reincarnation. Only these with gold and white Karma Meters will not reset after reincarnation. This was so that these with bad Karma could have second chances. But if they continue to be evil after the second reincarnation, their soul will be shattered, and they will not have a third chance!
Dumbfounded by Meng Xiang’s unreal Karma Meter, Yan Yan asked, “Master, how many reincarnations did she do to have this much good Karma?”
“This is her first life, so she was born with it.” Tian Yi said with a calm voice.
Not only can he reincarnate people at will, but he can also tell how many times one has reincarnated!
Although many people in this World has experienced reincarnation already, there are also many individuals who are living their first life! One can be born with good or bad Karma, but one cannot be born with a black Karma Meter. As for how good their Karma is determined, it is entirely random! That is why there are people out there with more fortune than others because nobody is born equal! You can treat each other as equals, but no matter what you think, the truth is that nobody is equal.
Looking at the golden beam on top of her head, Meng Xiang was confused, “What is this light? What does Big Brother mean by this is my first life? Reincarnations?” She asks herself.
She wanted to ask, but she had a feeling that it might be a bit too complicated for her at this moment, so she decided just to listen.
“What! She was born with this?!” Yan Yan cried out.
“This is definitely very very unfair! How could Heaven let her be born with this level of Karma?! What about these who work incredibly hard just to earn an inch of good Karma?!” She cries in her heart.
Many Immortals out there farm good Karma by doing good deeds every day for hundreds of years just to earn an inch of good Karma, yet this little girl was born with Karma that defied the Heavens?! Bullshit! The Heaven is making fun of these who work hard for their good Karma!
“Master, then what about me? How many times have I been reincarnated?” She asks him with an ominous tone.
Even Magic Beasts can go into the Road of Reincarnation. However, they have to transcend into a Demon first in order to be able to Reincarnate!
“You are also living your first life, so is my Master.” Tian Yi said without thinking much about it.
Although he is not supposed to tell anyone information about their past lives, it did not matter for Yan Yan and Meng Xiang because one of them is his Spirit Beast, and the other his Personal Servant.
*Phew*
Yan Yan wipes some cold sweat off her forehead after hearing that, “Thank Heavens that this is my first life. If I had a previous life with another Master during that time, isn’t that technically cheating on my current Master?!” She thought.
Even if it was her previous life, the thought of having another Master other than Tian Yi was excruciating to her. If she really had another life, then she would not be able to sleep properly anymore!
Feeling great, Yan Yan laughed, “Hahaha, Master, then what about you?” She asked.
“Me? I am current at my 9th reincarnation.” Tian Yi said with a serious face.
“What?!?!?!?” Yan Yan could not believe her ears and cried out.
“B-b-b-but M-M-Ma—”
Interrupting the stuttering Yan Yan, Tian Yi laughed, “Hahahaha. I am joking. I have no idea because I can only see other people and not myself!” He said.
“Wha— Master! Never do that again because it is bad for my heart!” Yan Yan said with her cheeks puffed out.
“Hahahaha.”
Unable to understand a thing, Meng Xiang could only enjoy watching Tian Yi laugh with a silly face.
******
The sun has already begun setting, and figures numbering in the dozens could be seen in the sky.
All of these people were wearing beautiful dresses that fitted their slim bodies perfectly.
Laughs that sounded like Heavenly Bells could be heard once every so often.
A group of females was currently flying through the sky, chatting as they go. Just one of these females was beautiful enough to turn every male she come across limp and hard at the same time, yet there was at least 50 of them all together right now, creating an illusion of a Goddesses Paradise.
“Haaa, even though she ran away with the Painting, we are still kind enough to come tell her about the upcoming auction. We sure are some good friends.” One of the beauty said.
“Her mother said that she came down here to Cultivate… But what is she Cultivating in the Mortal’s Realm?” Another one said.
“What are you talking about? We wouldn’t be here if the God of Art did not delay the auction.”
“Why did he delay it anyways?”
“There were way more people than expected before the auction had even started, so he went to find a bigger place to do the auction.” Someone answered.
“That’s true, I was there since the day it was announced, and not even a day later, the entire place was filled with females! Some of them even went crazy because they were not there fast enough to grab the good seats!”
“I don’t blame them…” They sigh together.
“But Junior Sister Xiuying sure has some thick skin to take away the painting with her…”
“Right?! I almost cried when I walked into her empty room!”
“Almost cried? I cried for three days straight! We all bought that painting together, yet she dares to hog it all for herself?! I will smack her butt a few times once I see her!”
This group of peerless females is exactly the comrades of Yun Xiuying that had their happiness stolen from them! They could not eat properly after finding out that Yun Xiuying took away the Painting of Desire with her to train! Although Yun Xiuying alone had paid more than half of the bill, the rest of the money needed was enough to make these females feel sour!
They were all going to hunt her down the moment they found out, but because of the auction, they decided to wait until it was over. However, now that the auction was delayed, they have plenty of time to hunt her ass down! After they get their revenge, they will also tell her about the auction because that is what good friends do!
“Girls! Look at that!” Someone suddenly called out.
“What?”
They all turn to look at the direction she was pointing to, “Impossible!” Someone screamed.
“T-That cannot be a Karma Meter… Can it?”
“B-B-But it’s so freaking high!”
“Is it the God of Fortune? Or maybe the God of Karma?”
“I have seen both of their Karma Meter, but neither of them was this crazy! And why would they even be down here in the Mortal’s Realm?”
“Let’s go check it out. If we are lucky enough, we may be able to recruit this person.” Someone suggested.
“If it is a female, all we need to do is show her the Painting of Desire!”
“Then what if it is a male?” Someone asked.
“Then we will figure something out, let’s go!”
*Whoosh*
All 50 plus of them flew towards this Golden Karma Meter that pierced the Heaven itself, leaving behind a smell that was incredibly alluring and aromatic along the way.
*****
“….” Tian Yi suddenly frowned.
He has been avoiding the usage of Divine Sense lately trying to avoid another incident, so he did not notice the group of females many miles away. But now that they are coming towards him, he could tell without even using Divine Sense.
“They are already searching for me in this World?!” He was alarmed.
“I should’ve made sure nobody was around before checking her Karma!” He regretted it now, but he also did not expect there to be Immortals who knew about Karma Meters in the Mortal’s Realm!
Also noticing the incoming group, Yan Yan said, “Master, they are all Half-Gods and looking at their age, they should have high status in the Major World.”
To become a Half-God at their age was something only these high ranking Family and Sect could afford!
“I know, but why are they in such a large group? If they were searching for me, wouldn’t it be more convenient to search separately?”
“Maybe they are only here by coincidence, and they happened to see Meng Xiang’s Karma Meter?” Yan Yan thought of different reasons.
“But why are they in the Mortal’s Realm in the first place?” He rather be safe than sorry. Barely a month and he have already been found? What kind of joke is that?
“Ey, whatever, it does not matter no more. I will meet with them, and if they’re really here for me, then I’ll just knock them out and seal their memories until I am done with exploring! Once I am done with exploring, I will personally apologize to whoever I attacked! However, if they are here for something else, then I will just give them a few favors and tell them to keep my location a secret!” Tian Yi said.
After coming down here with so much effort, he will rather do something unpleasant than to go back!
With Meng Xiang’s flashy Karma Meter noticed, he will not be able to hide anywhere, so he might as well face them up front!
*****
“Sisters, how are we supposed to find the one with the crazy Karma? None of us are at the God Realm yet…” One of the girls asked.
“Do not worry; I have a Treasure with me that will solve this problem for us.”
“Wow. Sister, you sure came prepared!”
“Okay, we’re here.”
The large group of peerless beauties stopped in front of the Dragon Head Airship, frightening away the Souls of all the Mortals who was on the airship deck.
All the Mortals there had their heart jump out of their throat witnessing such an unrealistic scene! What is going on? Why are there so many goddesses appearing out of nowhere? Did they accidentally steer the airship into some Goddess Paradise?
