335 MEMORIES OF A IMMORTAL
Li Meng experienced the first few lives. Although he was starting to lose his mind at first, he managed to learn a lot about the variety of the protagonist and how he managed to reach the very peak of martial arts every time. Soon enough the craziness became an attraction to Li Meng.
Although it was a depressing thing to be stuck here in an endless movie, he began to get comprehension about the various lives the protagonist had lived, and the meaning of deaths he had experienced during all the times. He kept dying and reincarnating into a different body every time, and soon enough his comprehension regarding the arts began to improve.
At first, the protagonist’s favorite weapon was a sword, which was then switched into a saber, then an ax, then a spear, and it continued on and on. Li Meng had stopped counting after the hundredth reincarnation. His own knowledge and comprehension of weapons had suddenly increased. After experiencing a man walk to the peak of power with a sword, Li Meng was able to achieve the sword body.
Every single one of his weapon cultivation was at the very peak of weapon intent, and he managed to simultaneously break through the weapon bodies of the spear, hammer, ax, saber, and many more. He didn’t even know that his power had suddenly taken a qualitative leap due to this event.
He continued experiencing one life after another. His fascination grew to know who this guy was. After an unknown period, Li meng finally arrived at life when the protagonist reached the top once again, but this time something else happened.
The scene didn’t change. Rather the protagonist began to accumulate and coagulate the knowledge of every single life he had lived until then, and finally achieved enlightenment. His power began to grow and break through the barriers which had previously shackled him, tearing through the space around him, until he finally managed to break through the next level for the first time.
Li Meng was experiencing a set of mixed feelings when he came across this view. The man had finally managed to reach a realm that he had never stepped in before. To his surprise though, the protagonist’s life came to an end soon after reaching the realm. The scene played once again, and this time he was in another body, but the result was difficult.
The lives passed one after the other until finally, the last life came. Li Meng had grown mute and devoid of expression by now. His mind had been filled with memories of around 1000 lives of a single entity. Although he gained immense experience, he had also suffered through every single incident the protagonist had to pass through.
His soul power had already increased by a huge extent and so did his understanding of weapon laws and cultivation. He had seen the protagonist rising from the ashes and reaching the top every time. But the only thought which remained in his mind was.
.....
“Why is the end always the same?” It was as if he was in some horrific, never-ending repetitive play that was just rerolling with some slight changes.
“That is what fate had in store for me .” a voice replied from behind. As he turned around he saw a person with the same face as the protagonist had in his first life.
“I am impressed that someone of your cultivation level can survive through the Passage of Eternal suffering. Do you know why it is called that?”
“Because it is just a never-ending loop of the same suffering you had to go through in a thousand lives.”
“Exactly. To my horror, every time I lived life the same thing would happen with me ultimately losing my loved ones at either time or fate, or enemies, and even when I reached the very top, I would always be alone. This made me realize something. We are just playthings in the hands of fate, and I always wanted to transcend it. Yet I failed.”
“The passage of eternal suffering is said so because no matter how many times I reincarnated, the same result awaited me. What I wanted to show the next generation was that if you didn’t want to suffer like me, you need to transcend fate itself and reach the realm beyond.”
When you are watching this, I will be living another one of my lives, and hope that we can meet someday. You are the inheritor of my first thousand lives and hence this makes you eligible to pass through this passage. I don’t have anything to gift you, so all I can give you is experience and insight.”
The figure raised his hands a small ball of lightning gathered in his palms.
“This is an accumulation of knowledge which I had gained during the first thousand years of my life. I wish for you to use it as a reference to design a path that could lead to transcendence. You are still a Qi King, hence will not be able to unlock these memories and insights as of now. As your realm increases more and more insights will be unlocked and help you forge the perfect path for yourself.”
“May I ask what realm did you manage to reach now?”
“This treasure is imbued with my consciousness when I had just passed through my thousandth life. I may not even be alive at the moment and hence can’t tell my exact realm. But I can report my realm when I was at the peak of the last life recorded here.”
“I was at the peak of Exalted Immortal, and the insight you hold in your body is from me then. Hope you can reach the top since if I am alive, I will be waiting for you there.”
Li Meng bowed in respect to this great man. The whole world began to crack apart, as Li meng’s soul returned to his body.
............
“He managed to pass through the trial. Great, we finally have a successor who could help us eliminate that thing.”
“Act fast and lead him to this place.” A skeptical voice sounded.
“It’s finally coming to an end.” The voice said in an excited tone.
