I was scared, no scratch that I was terrified.

I had been reincarnated,

 I came realiz this fact, 

I had discovered this incredible and horrible fact on the first day I had opened my eyes,

 but accepting this new reality is an entirely different situation.

My new reality was freaking terrifying. 

I was born in another world, a world where some sort of magic exists.

I knew this because sometime after opening my eyes,

 I was taken away from the other babies to a dark place that could be only described as a creepy dungeon.

 There I was placed in some sort of bubble where I was floating in midair, naked alone, and vulnerable.

That was not even the worst part. The worst part was the men coming and going after poking and prodding me,
first was a 20 something young-looking man dressed as an ancient Chinese warrior with complete armour and everything.

He flicked his hand, and I floated toward him and picked by the skull. This scared me shitless; he picked me Infront of me and examined me with the scrutiny of a man who was investigating a dirty rag cloth he found in his room; after a few minutes like that, he threw me back inside the bubble.

That was the beginning of my nightmare. Being a baby was no joy ride, I had no control over any bodily function whatsoever.

I pooped whenever I urinated, whenever I had no control over anything,

my eyes were on autofocus.

They would go out of focus anytime they pleased and refocus on their own volition,

I would feel hungry all the time; there I was floating in my shit and piss hungry, tired and terrified. I never felt so helpless in my previous life.

I didn't see my mother. I knew this because of an old woman, the same one I first saw when I opened my eyes for the first time in this world who used to come at an odd interval of time to clean my bubble no other woman came to me, maybe one of the men who came to cast all types of spells me was my father, but I wouldn't know.

The men who came to me were anything but ordinary after the warrior, a skinny bald middle age looking man dressed in a green Kasaya.,
As soon he came in, he sat down in the lotus form and took out a bowl and a gold-coloured stick and took this stick and pressed it firmly around the edges of the bowl and started moving in a circular motion a few seconds a clear, bright tone started to ring out.

"a Tibetan singing bowl," my mind echoed; my wife used to have that sorry my ex-wife.

As the sound of singing bowl grew, the man started to chant in a thunderous voice. The chants and the ringing tone were at first soothing, then they began to echo in my head, and then they were so loud that I got the worst headache I could remember.

This session continued for what felt like hours, and all I could do was scream which I couldn't even hear. The monk drowned all the sounds with his chant and his bowl.

The monk used to come over and do his thing anytime the mood hit him. He came to me 24 by my count, and each time he came, it was excruciatingly painful.

After the monk was a man with an unusual body shape, his hands and feet and very skinny, but the man had a massive potbelly if not for his yellow beard,
I would have thought him to be a pregnant woman,

he would come near the bubble with his hands behind his back and smile at me, which looked hideous and talk. He was my frequent visitor along with the old lady what felt like every day.

He just came and talked and talked. I didn't understand a word he said; I didn't know what language he could be speaking Yiddish for all I knew, but it wasn't any language I knew, or the weird people in this world were speaking.

This potbellied man was the only one who didn't do anything to me. Even granny would clean me, but this man just stood there with his hands behind his back and spoke in a strange language.

After the potbellied man left, a man dressed in a green jacket and a green robe carrying a sword came over without fail
He also stood there and watched me. The difference was he had a green glow shinnying from his eyes.

He would observe me standing still as a statue for an extended period of time

After that, he would rub his smooth chin, mutter something and then leave

After a few sessions with the monk, a man wearing a white robe with gold symbols embroider at various places came and waived, and golden mist appeared at the tip of his finger and moved toward me and wrapped all around me like a vortex after a few minutes of this man flip his hand, and the mist disappeared

then he took me out of the bubble looked at me as I looked back into the kind eyes of a sharp pain rang through the temples of my head under my horrified gaze,

he placed down the ground and took out various needles and started to place at multiple points on my body and unlike the painless sensation I expected it was excruciating, he would regularly come and pin needles in my body with his hands,

taking blood from temples using some instrument I didn't see and gazing into my eyes which always left me with a massive headache

None could compare to the terrifying monster who looked a fusion between a goat and tiger with hoofs for claws, and the body of a tiger with white fur and red stripes and where there was supposed to be a tiger head or a goat head or another head was ahead of human with a huge black beard and his head hair were tied up in a bun and two horns were protruding from his forehead.

This creature was a beast from some kid's nightmare with yellow teeth, a poked marked face, and a menacing black collar and the smell of rotten eggs coming from him was horrifying enough.

But this thing started to cook me, as I stated in utter terror at the beast, he opened his mouth and sprouted foul-smelling green fire from his mouth and engulfed me, I can't express the excruciating pain that fire brought me, not to mention all the horrid smells.
One thing was painfully clear I wasn't wanted.

If I was wanted, it was for whatever experiments were going on, not as a child to raise and love
These people were using me as a guinea pig.

This was my second life, my new reality. It wasn't easy to accept

to accept this fact, it took unimaginable willpower from me

GOD,  BUDDHA,  KRISHNA,  ALLAH,

or whatever God or being had decided to reincarnate me couldn't it have a Japanese Isekai world where I would be surrounded by busty women and incredible power or give me a badass cheat system or a simple advantage instead,

at least if there was nothing to give they could have given my past memory later in life

It wasn't like they were helpful or anything. I was no great scientist, craftsman, or even a physically fit

I didn't have any unique skill, knowledge, or anything like that

I was a scrawny bad salesman with a broken marriage and understanding of data analysis with the experience of living a shitty life

And here I was living another shitty life of a lab rat

This was my new reality

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCK
..................................................................................................
Liu wen looked around  the living room, feeling happy

Today was the complete moon celebration for his son 30th day after birth

The entier Liu clan of the red star sect, their friends, and their allies were here today congratulating him, celebrating him, and praising his son, who was born with a blue thunder body and a thunder spiritual root.

The best qualification that had been seen in the long history of the 3000 years of the sect

His son was going to be the next pillar of the sect and the sect leader.

His son had the best chances to reach nascent divinity, propelling the sect to a new era where they could venture into the dawn.
With that, his son would, so he would rise too.

He was already an accomplished geomancer and a feng shui master.

He was sure that he would rise to the top of this sect.

He would only be second to the sect master and the elder

He was laughing and drinking with all his friends and cousin

As he was enjoying, he celebrated his greatness his foresight;

he saw a servant come to him behind the screen and bowed down to him and waited
He waved his hand, inviting the man to speak

"Master wen, clan leader, has called you, "he leaned and said in a soft voice

immediately Liu wen was sober, he was up and ran out with the servant fast on his heel

Everyone laughed behind him at his display, making jokes about how his leash was in the hands of his wife

He ignored these taunts. His so-called wife had been gone nearly 2 weeks now

And besides, it was the clan head who called him, and no matter who or what his son as he wasn't the sect head yet

As Liu wen came into the well-lit hall, there was a great crowd of people surrounding a chair on which the head of the clan Liu Tuan even though both of them were at the gold core stage he had just entered it,

but Liu when was at the final stage, the rumour is that he had already comprehended a Dao and was transforming the soul

Liu wen kowtowed Infront of Liu Tuan

"Greeting head" he shouted

"Get up," came an old raspy voice

Liu got up slowly while scanning the room with his eyes. If he used his divine sense here, he would be smashed like a buy for disrespecting many seniors. Everyone who was some in the clan was here, the elders, the necessary guest of the clan, everyone.

He suddenly became nervous, what was going on, had he done something

"Since you are here, we can start," an old man leaning on his cane said from the corner of the room

Liu wen turned around to see who was the person who he turned to see it was his father Liu ren and the only celestial Diviner and close to

he stood master meng the heavenly Diviner of the sect

As if on cue, master meng came forward

"I would like to inform every that after consulting the stars the heaven and every classic the sect we have concluded that the eyes are in fact a heavenly gift called the truth seeing eyes, these can see through any illusion and secret, these eyes can comprehend any technique and are insurmountable to become a heavenly diviner," he said in a soft raspy voice that somehow echoed in the entire hall.

There were many gasps all around the crowd; a diviner was a rare and secret profession no one knew who they were or what their abilities were

all the general population knew was that they could read the secret of The heaven even in the history 3000 years of the sect, only two diviners had been born.

Liu ren and master meng

It was because of Liu ren that the Liu clan could rise to power

It was Liu ren who helped his son Liu we to win the Favour of nascent soul ancestor Xing Yufei

But even so, he was only a celestial diviner, not a heavenly one like master meng

"So, the child is not any old monster or immortal reincarnated," a tall, robust man with a sword on his back asked

"No, Liu Kong, with the help of white deer temple, we have confirmed that the soul of the child is a new soul" it was Liu ren who answered

"that's a relief," Liu Kong hummed

The majority of the crowd felt the same way

"so, what do we do now," a young woman asked among the crowd

She Liu Tao, the only refiner of the clan

"Master meng and I have agreed that the child will be kept under observation for two more months, and then he will come to live with us," Liu ren answered.

"NO," a loud voice and in the hall.

Everyone turned their head toward the person who dared to speak in front of the clan head and the diviners?.

It was an old woman standing straight at the entrance of the hall nobody had noticed her come in even with their divine sense.

"What do you mean" master meng said in a gruff voice, making no secret of his anger

"I represent my mistress, and petitioning the clan head as well as to allow the child to grow under my care" as soon as she said this, it was clear who she was

Ahe granny Yu the voice and ears of Xing Yufei

Knowing the power that she represented, master meng became quiet and stepped back.

"So be it" Liu Tuan nodded towards the women.

Granny Yu bowed to Liu Tuan turned, and then she left

Liu TUan clapped his hands to get everyone's attention.

"Today, i would like to introduce you to the envoy of the heavenly cloud palace."

Suddenly, a young woman wearing a yellow turban and yellow dress came forward, and she bowed to Infront of the crowd and waited for Liu Tuan to get up and speak.

Seeing the yellow turban and knowing the identity of the women, everyone became curious at what she had to say
Liu Tuan looked at the woman and smiled

"Speak, my daughter."

"Disciple Liu YuanShou of the heavenly cloud palace greets the clan head" the women stood straight up and spoke in a mesmerizing voice.

Seeing Liu Yuanshou introduce herself like Liu Tuan understood and replied with gusto

"How can we help the envoy the heavenly cloud palace."

Liu YuanShou smiled and bowed her head.

"My master Sovereign thunderbolt Tong Zhang as put has wished to take Liu Yuntao the one born with blue thunder body and thunder sprit root as his 3rd disciple," she said

The spectating crowd became silent; this news was too shocking

Sovereign thunderbolt was a half-step nascent divinity realm master.

There were only a handful of people on his level

If they allowed lord thunderbolt to take this blue thunder boy, then I would as if the water of Liu clan would flow into some else field, but in turn, they would gain the support and protection of a mighty figure

Whereas if they refused, they would have changed to have to cultivate a powerhouse of the same level as Sovereign thunderbolt Tong Zhang, but they would also take the enmity and anger of the Sovereign thunderbolt

Both choices would be bad

Liu wen cursed in his mind he wanted to go and beat this woman and refuse this Sovereign his son was his ticket to greatness. How could he let go?

But he didn't dare to refuse some like sovereign thunderbolt

He just stood there silently

Liu Tuan was not a coward, but he was no fool either he quickly made his decision and nodded.

"Very well, it would be an honor for the Liu clan," he said loudly

Most of the crowd nodded in agreement it was simply a bird in the hand was better than the two in the bush

"Very well, my master will be here in 5 years till then it is my duty to raise martial uncle" Liu Yuanshou smiled and spoke

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" Liu wen shouted in his head
