Chapter 1 Ten Years Later
... this is your choice then"Lin Feng's face showed no emotion whatsoever.This moment.The atmosphere in the arena was unbearably tense.Some people felt a shiver down their spine, sensing a sense of te...In the remote mountains of southeast Daxia, where few people tread.
There was an old dilapidated Taoist temple.
A white-haired old man sat in meditation at the entrance of the Taoist temple.
Facing the elder stood a young man in black, his demeanor haggard and his eyes filled with melancholy.
"Lin Feng, ten years have passed, you can go down the mountain now."
The old man said.
"Want to hit me again"
Lin Feng responded coldly.
The old man was silent for a moment, then said: "Actually, I beat you up for your own good!"
Lin Feng sneered upon hearing this, without replying.
"Lin Feng, do you hate me very much"
The old man suddenly asked.
"I used to hate it!"
"What about now"
"It doesn't matter anymore. Ten years have passed, talking about it is meaningless now."
"Yeah, it's pointless! How many decades does a person have anyway..."
"Time is like a knife, mercilessly cutting down even the most talented. Even someone as powerful as me can't escape the distant shore."
The old man sighed.
He struggled to lift his head and gazed at the distant sky.
Now the sun is setting, and dusk is approaching.
The sunset blends with the clouds, casting a warm glow across the vast forest.
The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it's near dusk.
The old man sighed and continued,
"Lin Feng, can you call me Master"
Lin Feng lowered his head, a sneer still playing on his lips.
"Lin Feng, what do you think the fairy world is like"
"Lin Feng, I want to eat dumplings."
"Lin Feng..."
The scene gradually fell silent.
"Woooooo~"
A gentle breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness.
For quite a while.
Lin Feng noticed something was amiss and looked up at the old man.
But it was discovered that at some point, the old man had closed his eyes and there was no sign of life.
Seeing this,
Lin Feng suddenly grabbed the elderly corpse and lifted it up, his voice cold:
"Aren't you just trying to trick me into going down the mountain so you can find an excuse to beat me up What's with all this acting dead nonsense"
...
No matter how Lin Feng spoke,
The old man no longer reacted at all.
His face was slowly turning purple, and his body temperature was gradually cooling.
His withered body weighed no more than ten pounds, devoid of the ethereal elegance he once possessed.
…..
Memories gradually surfaced in my mind.
Ten years ago.
Lin Feng is only 22 years old and just graduated from university.
To fulfill his promise to his girlfriend, he drove alone to her house, planning to confront her parents.
Unexpectedly, on the journey, I met this mysterious old man.
The old man said that he was a spiritual being by nature and could become an immortal in the Age of Dharma's Decline.
Then, ignoring his protests, she forcibly took him to this remote mountain.
That's ten years right there!
Over a decade,
The elder subjected him to the harshest training imaginable in this world.
Every day before dawn, I have to get up and cultivate.
Practice boxing at seven o'clock.
Leg workout at ten.
Practice swordplay at twelve o'clock.
Train the pupils at 2 p.m.,
Ten o'clock, refining formation methods.
Twenty Points Alchemy.
After midnight, begin to breathe in and out.
The daily break time is less than three hours!
For ten years, he's wanted to run away countless times, to escape this place, to go home.
He would always be easily caught by the old man and beaten mercilessly!
At its worst, I even almost lost half my life.
Although cultivating immortals is a great opportunity, Lin Feng didn't care at all.
His girlfriend is still waiting for him to come and propose, his elderly parents and young sister at home are all waiting for him to make money to support the family.
How could he be staying here
No matter how he begged, the old man remained unmoved.
He had politely asked to send a message home, even kneeling and begging, but the elder still refused.
Instead, he beat him to a pulp and then said coldly:
"Cultivation goes against the natural order, and one must sever ties with worldly attachments and karmic debts!"
"Lin Feng, unless I die, you will never be able to leave the mountain!"
……
From that moment on,
Lin Feng hated the old man in front of him to the core!
He diligently cultivated every day, hoping to achieve his goal soon and surpass the old man. He wanted to dismember him into ten thousand pieces, thus alleviating the hatred in his heart.
That's it.
Ten years have passed!
He spent ten years in ascetic practice, not waiting for the day when he would surpass the elder, but instead encountered such a curtain call.
At this moment,
Lin Feng's heart was empty.
It wasn't as joyful as I imagined, nor as angry. There was only a calm indifference.
Or, perhaps numb would be more fitting.
I only feel that the persistence of these ten years seems so ridiculous.
The evening wind blew harder.
The temperature in the mountains seemed to drop to freezing point all of a sudden.
Lin Feng remained silent, silently burying the old man.
Then he stood up and turned, his two melancholy eyes gazing at the verdant mountains in the distance.
No one could understand what he was feeling at that moment.
That's it.
Long time, long time...
"I never thought you'd really be dead this time!"
"Your body will slowly dissipate, transforming into eternity. Like grains of sand in the desert, this might, in a way, be considered a form of immortality."
"Fare thee well, never to meet again!"
Lin Feng still couldn't bring himself to say the words "master".
He immediately drew his sword, his entire being transforming into wisps of light before vanishing into the horizon.
If a cultivator were here at this moment, they would surely be astonished beyond measure.
It's hard to imagine that in this age of decline, there are people who can fly with swords!
……
Half an hour later, Lin Feng returned to the hometown of his memories.
His hometown is located in the suburbs of Jinling City, Jiangsu Province.
...and the home that I still cherish is just a simple and unassuming little flat.
In front of the flat house is a small pond.
By the pond is a fenced vegetable garden.
Besides various lush green vegetables, there were also some crooked and narrow apricot trees in the garden.
"It's all the same…"
Looking at this familiar scene before him, Lin Feng's deep eyes finally moistened.
Ten years later, I return to my homeland.
Even in his current state of mind, he couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness and the urge to cry.
In the mountains, how many days and nights did he dream of such a scene...
I dreamed of swimming in a pond as a child.
I dreamt of my father and mother sitting on the bluestone in front of the door, smiling at me and my sister as we held a bamboo pole, tapping the apricots to eat.
Dreamed of fireworks in the human world,
Dreamed of green onions... people are still the same.
"These past ten years, I've vanished without a trace. My parents probably think I'm dead by now"
"And there's my little sister, she was nine when I left. Now, I don't even know if she's gone to college!"
The old man said, "Cultivation is a long road to immortality. When you cut off the karmic ties of the mundane world, but what is the purpose of cultivation if you cut off these closest people to you"
Even if one transcends tribulation and ascends to immortality, attaining eternal life, what meaning would it hold without them
Lin Feng let out a long sigh, calming his agitated mind.
Hasn't he been waiting for this moment all these years
Ten years is neither long nor short.
May it be so,
There's still time!
Lin Feng was preparing to return home, looking forward to the warm reunion with his family.
As a result, he just took his first step.
The door of the flat was knocked open from inside.
Then.
Two burly men with dragon-etched heads walked out smiling, a frail girl bound between them.
The girl was about nineteen years old, wearing a floral dress that reached her ankles. Her black hair fell to her waist, her skin was as delicate as snow, and she stood tall at about five feet seven inches.
Although her mouth was stuffed with a white cloth, she was sobbing and unable to speak. However, her delicate features were still visible.
Her eyebrows are like willow leaves, and her eyes are like autumn water.
Soft and yielding, pure and delicate.
Though she was bare-faced, every detail was perfect, as if she had stepped out of a painting.
Such a girl, at this moment, is constantly shedding tears. Her tender oval face is filled with fear and helplessness.
This sudden curtain,
Let Lin Feng be stunned.
Ten years ago, even though my little sister was only nine years old, she still recognized that the girl was her own sister, Lin Yunyao!
He never thought that ten years later, the little kid back then would have grown up to be so beautiful!
I never thought that when I came back, I would encounter someone kidnapping my own sister
Meanwhile.
The two bald men across from him were also stunned.
It's dark outside!
How come there are still people coming to this area that has already been demolished due to expropriation
Look at this kid with his long hair and clothes from ten years ago, faded almost white from washing. He's obviously broke!
Wouldn't it be difficult to understand scavengers nearby
Damn it!
No, it's probably here to poop.
......
Some people die, but they don't die completely…
After an endless period of unconsciousness, Shiyu suddenly shot up from the bed. To view the latest chapter content, please download [the website/app]. The website is no longer updating the latest chapter content. It is already available on the AiYue Novels app for free reading without ads.
He breathed deeply of the fresh air, his chest heaving.
Confused and puzzled, all sorts of emotions surged through my mind.
What is this
Then, Shiyu unconsciously observed his surroundings, and became even more confused.
A single person's dormitory
Even if he successfully received rescue, he should be in the hospital ward now.
...and yet one's own body...how could there be no injuries at all.
With a puzzled look, Shiyu's gaze quickly swept across the room before finally settling on the mirror on the bedside table.
The mirror reflected his current appearance, he was about seventeen years old, and handsome.
The problem is, this isn't him! Download, read the latest chapter content ad-free.
The person I was before
was a handsome young man in his twenties, who had been working for some time.
And now, this appearance looks like just a high school student's age...
This change left Shiyu stunned for a long time.
Don't tell him the surgery was a success...
His body and appearance have completely changed, this isn't just a matter of surgery or not. This is magic.
He had completely transformed into a different person!
Could it be… that I traveled through time
Besides the mirror with an obviously bad feng shui placement at the head of the bed, Shi Yu also found three books beside it.
Shi Yu picked it up and looked. The book title instantly made him silent.
Essential Guide for New Pet Owners
Postpartum Pet Care
Shiyu:
The first two book names are normal, but what's with the last one
"Cough."
Shi Yu's eyes were serious, and he reached out his hand, but soon his arm stiffened.
Just as he thought about opening the third book to see what it was, his brain suddenly shot with pain, and a flood of memories surged into him.
