= "Ame, Kiel, goodnight my darlings." = Noah, the father of the two reincarnated beings, said his goodnight as the two calmed down.

He placed the two of them in the same bassinet as he exited the room and left Ava to sleep on the bed.

Ame and Ye Feng secretly watched Ava intake some healing powder before going to rest for the night, she whispered as she did so, = "Goodnight, my children." =

She sounded happy and content. She sounded stronger for a woman who had just given birth.

It was deep into the night, and Ye Feng was still awake. Two newborns turned their bodies and began staring at each other.

Ye Feng tried his best to initiate the conversation.

"What kind of Soul are you? How did you reincarnate?" Ye Feng had no qualms of letting this young girl know of his situation as they already knew what was happening. Everything would have been perfect if the two of them could actually understand each other's words.

= "What?" = Ame failed to understand Ye Feng.

Hearing Ame speak to him mentally confirmed that they spoke different languages. Although Ye Feng knew every language in the previous Universe, this place was not the same.

It was a different world with different laws of being.

Ame was the same, hearing Ye Feng speak of such foreign language failed any form of communication. She who had been around for hundreds of years was unable to recognize his words.

= 'This is going to be a problem.' = She thought to herself.

Realizing their lack of ability to comprehend each other's words, Ye Feng had an idea and scrambled around his mind to find something.

Pushing his tiny and frail body to sit up Ye Feng succeeded after some trial and error.

'Okay, if talking is not going to work, let us try something broader…' Ye Feng began used body movement to communicate.

He was not speaking like how deaf people did in his time, but like how a child tries their best to communicate something they do not know the name of…

He pointed at his mouth, close and opened it and then crossed his arms.

Ame tried her best to comprehend Ye Feng and what she got was, = "Speak, cross…oh, he cannot speak… but he can only different language, oh he meant he can't speak the language!" = Ame managed to decrypt the words of the old fogey baby.

Seeing Ame's face show a face or realization, he made a sigh of relief as he tried motioning that he wanted to sleep.

'I can't learn a language in one day, but I'll go about talking to her once I pick it up.'

Speaking to Ame was nothing but short of empty work. They would fail to understand to one another, and with Ye Feng not having an idea what the other was talking about, he'd only be lost, and it would be an unproductive experience for the both of them.

Emotions may surface, and change may be inevitable, but the core of his being would not change so easily.

'This universe is different, yet it is still the same.'

Aether and Ye Feng did not know how many eons since this new Universe was created. For all their knowledge and awareness, this plane of existence may have been completed the moment the shell of the Egg was made.

But, thankfully, Ye Feng knew the very basis of what kind of Universe this was.

'A Universe built from the ground up using the logic of the previous one. A culmination of the thousands of realms, scattered about creating the amalgamation of power… a world where power shall reign supreme.'

In this world, Aether was no more, and the sea of aureate light had scattered to become the new laws.

And this was the world that even Ye Feng failed to comprehend.

As the Ouroboros who ruled over the trail of life and death scattered to become a single entity, what kind of fate would it have in the hands of an empty man? It, who controlled Eternity, Reality, and Time, what kind of power would it show to the world?

Ye Feng closed his eyes and tried sensing the energy of the world. He had no idea what it was, but he should still be able to deconstruct it, for him to start a process.

He tried sensing it with his all of his senses… but nonetheless, he failed.

'That's odd… I can't seem to feel the energy of the world… no I am doing this incorrectly. What if there is another process here? Like I said, there is such as a new rule surrounding the world. Thus, I am sure that this world's cultivation method is also different.'

The methods of the Universes were not the same, on the previous one, there were two ways of cultivating, and that was through forming a connection with the Spirit World and either bond with a Spirit or just pure cultivation.

Ye Feng failed to create any kind of bond with any Spirit and cultivated alone without anything trying to form a bond with him. That should not have been a problem as the Spirit World was already gone.

The Spirit World was the first to be destroyed when Aether rose from the sea of light. Ye Feng thought so too; however, such a fact didn't matter, and when he tried again, he found instant failure was all that he got.

He could already feel and ascertain of its existence, but the problem was that his body, or rather his soul failed to make a connection with it.

He turned to the side and saw his twin also doing the same, trying to cultivate as early as she could. He did not know why she wanted to cultivate so early in life, but considering he was doing the same for survival's sake, he had no right to question her.

He watched her silently intake the energy of the world, and it was entering her without a problem. There was no rejection or anything like that. And seeing this made Ye Feng ask himself a lot of things.

'Why is that? What is the difference between her and me…? We came from different Universes… and what's the different previous world and this…? Connection with the Spirit World… yes that's it!' He made a correct conjecture.

With his soul being still a remnant of previous Universe, he was still bound to a remnant of its rules. He who was born in that world was born with the prerequisite of needing to form a connection with the Spirit World so they could cultivate, that was the way to weed out the Mortals from the Immortals.

This brand still remained, but without a Spirit World, to connect with, Ye Feng did not know what it was he needed to do… but, then, he remembered something.

'Form a connection with me…' Ye Feng said with a sigh.

Aether did not fight with him and synched with him. They were one and the same yet, this was still necessary for them to cultivate.

Ye Feng felt a connection… a deep bond that could not be explained by words.

One of Ye Feng's eyes revolved and without anyone noticing, momentarily had a gray serpent bring its own tail revolving inside.

And as Ye Feng opened his eyes, his right eye had already been marked. This was his brand, and as he connected with Aether, he received another name.

Aether was the name corresponding with everything… however, it had another name. It was the name of a Spirit — Ouroboros, was its name.
