Transmigration: Children of The Plane

Rebirth Protagonist Xiao Mo, Step 1 Complete

"Big Wang, I gave you the coordinates. Wake me up when we are close to it." Xue Bai ordered before closing his eyes.

However, he wasn't planning on sleeping yet as he had just remembered something extremely important.

The Celestial Void Fruit he was about to pick was something originally picked by a random genius in the original timeline. However, during the game, it was stolen by one of the protagonists. Specifically a protagonist of the rebirth troupe.

The game "Children of the Plane" had five protagonists, each with a different troupe. Huo Long had the Ring Grandma troupe, while this one had the advantage of being reborn 40 years into the past back into his teenage body.

The Protagonist's name was Xiao Mo, originally a medicine boy from a sect in the sticks of the eastern continent. However, he was chosen to be a follower of the sect's Holy Son and soon followed him throughout his journey.

But with his mediocre talent, Xiao Mo soon realized that if he wanted something in life, he had to snatch it himself. And so he became a menace to his Master, stealing his chances, using his name to pressure others, and other horrible things. But through this, he eventually overcame his lack of potential and gained a Middle Black Grade Martial Vein.

After this, he managed to overtake his Master in strength and kill him. Finally, overthrowing the slave seal that he was branded with. Now with his new potential, he would soon take over the Eastern Continent and live the lavish life of an Emperor.

Growing overconfident and tired of the weak Eastern Continent, he made his way to the central continent, where he realized the unfairness of the world. He was once again taken as a slave to a sect in the sticks of the Central Continent. However, this time he would die in the sect of old age, never being allowed to fulfill his wishes.

But he was reborn once again in the past, with his memories of the future. And with this, he would send the game into chaos.

Of all the protagonists in "Children of the Plane," he was the one Xue Bai was wary of most. Because of the five, they were all either nice people at heart or arrogant enough to put nothing in their eyes.

However, Xiao Mo was the opposite. Living a life as a slave had twisted his mentality, and he now lived with the motto, "My way or the highway."

He wanted the entire Baishen Plane to be under his control, and with Yggradsil in his possession, he had the means to do so.

Through most people's playthroughs, he was the Final Villain in "Children of the Plane," and the only way to kill him was to stop him in the early stages. Once he got Yggradsil and other Treasures from his memories, he would become almost unstoppable.

Xiao Mo would also steal this Celestial Void Fruit in the game, but he would only do so in a few decades. Leaving Xue Bai with plenty of room.

But what Xue Bai was worried about was a Luck Backlash because he wasn't sure what timeline he was in currently. He knew that Xiao Mo would awaken his memories in this one, but whether the fruit was already fated to be his or not was pressuring Xue Bai into giving it up.

But Xue Bai knew that Xiao Mo wouldn't spare him even if he didn't get this fruit.

As a control freak, Xiao Mo hated something he didn't know about or couldn't control. And with Xue Bai being an anomaly, Xiao Mo would kill him the first chance he got.

Hoping that Xiao Mo wasn't fated to get the fruit in this timeline was Xue Bai's only hope.

Xue Bai had already stolen Yggradasil from him, and there was no more reconciliation between the two. Neither wanted Yggradasil's abilities to be known by the world.

He and Xiao Mo would meet eventually, but until then, Xue Bai would prepare himself while stopping as many interceptions as possible.

Remembering Xiao Mo also reminded Xue Bai of the second Protagonist on his continent. Finally, after two and a half years of being in this world, he had found her traces. But Xue Bai had bigger plans for the girl, so he left her to her own devices, leaving only a shadow guard to relay important news.

Xue Bai soon fell asleep on the mount, bringing his messy mind to a calm state. Unfortunately, this place was even further than Frontier City and would take almost 30 hours to reach on the Bear Griffen. However, with his past life experience, Xue Bai had developed a skill that could easily let him sleep for most of the day.

Which worked just as well in his new life as Xue Bai was woken up suddenly by Big Wang.

They had arrived.

"Young Duke, I've arrived at the coordinates you gave me, but where do we go next? There isn't a town for miles. And the closest one is abandoned." Big Wang asked.

"No need, Big Wang, our goal is right in front of us." Xue Bai spoke with glowing eyes.

In front of Xue Bai was a small plant that was only about three feet tall. Much shorter than the 4'2 Xue Bai. However, what made it special was an apple-sized fruit hanging on it. Surprisingly the small fruit was so heavy it had made the plant bend to support its weight.

It was, of course, The Celestial Void Fruit. Currently, as it wasn't completely ripe, it hadn't gotten its signature purple hue and was stuck with a dark blue shade. But Xue Bai had waited almost three years for this thing. So he could wait a little longer. The only reason he had come a week early was to prevent any mishaps from happening.

"Big Wang, set up a concealing array around us. Make it about 30 meters in diameter. Then, little Wang set up camp for us. We'll be here for a while." Xue Bai gave the two orders before laying down on the Bear Griffen.

He planned to sleep on it. How could he, a Young Duke, sleep on the cold forest floor when there was a fluffy and docile behemoth here begging for him to sleep on it?

Obeying Xue Bai's command, the Wang Twins both quickly completed their orders before sitting down cross-legged and cultivating.

Though the Spiritual Qi here was thin, with how close they were to the next realm, any Spiritual Qi was helpful.

Days quickly passed with Xue Bai either sleeping or playing various card games with the Twins to sate his boredom. Until finally, it was the day of its ripening.

"Big Wang, do you have the case ready?" Since Xue Bai couldn't eat the fruit immediately, he had brought with him a case that could hold the Celestial Void Fruit without letting any of its essence leave it.

"Yes, Young Duke. Here you go. Just be careful with picking the fruit." After handing the case to Xue Bai, Big Wang backed off per his previous instructions.

With the case in hand, Xue Bai started slowly walking towards the fruit, waiting for the Spatial Pulse. Though no one under the Immortal Great Realm could sense spatial fluctuations, with how close Xue Bai was, he would be able to feel it blow past him.

It only took a few minutes before it happened. A blast of purple light emitted from the fruit before fading into nothingness a few feet into its flight. The Celestial Void Fruit had turned entirely purple and had ripened.

Not wasting any time, Xue Bai picked the fruit and placed it into the case. Fearing that something might go wrong if he wasted any time.

After the fruit was secured, Xue Bai looked up at the sky to see if anything had happened. But even after ten minutes, no lighting came down, bringing the ordeal to an end.

"Wang Twins, let's go home. Our mission here is complete." Then, after calming his uneasy heart down, Xue Bai ordered.

"Young Duke, what exactly is that fruit?" Big Wang couldn't help but ask.

Hearing that question, Xue Bai had many answers to it in his mind. Unfortunately, most of them were sarcastic. However, he ignored all of them and responded with the most precise.

"It's our hope, Big Wang. This fruit is the start of me and the only hope of survival." Xue Bai spoke emotionally.

Dumbstruck at such a serious answer, Big Wang wanted to ask another question, but Xue Bai spoke once again, shutting him up.

"Big Wang, I miss my parents. Take us home at full speed."

"Yes, Young Duke!" Putting his questions to the back of his mind, Big Wang ordered his mount to fly towards the Dukedom.

'Step 1 is complete. Now for step 2!' With everything going right for him now, Xue Bai couldn't wait for the future.
