Chapter 407 - I Am Me (2/2)

Clenching his hand around the ring, he felt his heart descend into disarray. Would he ever find out?

He opened his eyes. A pair of bright, amber-gold eyes reflected the world's image.

”Soon, I'll have enough to buy a True Awakening Pill, opening my meridians, qi pathways, and innate physique. When I do, I'll be a cultivator, one at the Qi Foundation Realm! It'll be my first step into becoming more and finding my origins!” He exclaimed passionately.

He turned his eyes to the wall, hearing the pitter and patter of water outside. It had started raining. ”Today's my sixteenth birthday, right?” Having no home, he didn't have an exact day to know when he was born, but he knew the day he was found. It's sixteen years since, exactly.

SHUMZZZ!

”Ah?!” He jumped at the abrupt sound. It emanated from his chest. Looking down with shock and a hint of fear, he saw his chest emitting amber-gold lights endlessly. It was as if a miniaturized sun was trapped within his body, threatening to drown him in its brightness. He could clearly observe the insides of his body, even the flow of his blood and bones.

”This...what?!” He was startled. What was happening? Also, why wasn't he freaking out? The more he witnessed this ongoing event, his heart grew calmer and calmer. Before long, all shock and fear was abolished. The amber-gold light continued to brighten.

A wave of warmth felt as if it entered his soul, then memories entered his mind that was both foreign yet familiar.

”I,” he said.

”Me,” another voice, different, older, and more experienced said.

”Me,” he said.

”I,” the voice said again. It was similar to the young boy except its aged tone, but the cadence was the same.

”I am me,” he said. Then, his body exploded into brilliantly gorgeous amber-gold light that penetrated walls, the rain, the clouds, and shot up in a cylindrical shape until it penetrated the very sky itself. It was far too bright to conceal.

”Before, at this age, on this day, I was born anew. Today, I, once more, am born anew!!” The two voices simultaneously spoke, their cadence, tone, and forcefulness were perfectly in sync.

The voice echoed through the hearts of the millions of citizens in the hundreds of thousands miles range. They all looked up into the sky and saw the piercing light within the sky. Many were enlightened, others cowed. The light effused an imperialistic aura intermixed with warmth, unyielding will, and relentlessness. A unique Dao seemed to overtake the heavens for a moment.

The young boy's light started to recede, the phenomena receded back into his body, and his amber-gold eyes flashed with soul-shaking light. His eyes no longer had that youthful vigor, but aged wisdom and experience. This was the eyes of someone who'd been beyond the world and killed gods.

”Yan...Zaizen!” He uttered. The surrounding Heavenly Laws quaked, shaken and stirred by his vocals. The volume of those words were low, but they contained a faint trace of the Heavenly Law.

”I...so this is what happened,” the youth spoke with a smile. He was not an orphan. He was not alone. He had parents who loved him greater than life itself and he loved them the same way. He had a love so great that she was willing to brave Hell for him. His cultivation base reached an unfathomable level, capable of annihilating gods and shattering laws.

”My main body is trapped in the Deep Mines. I need to get there. Unfortunately,” he inspected his body. While his soul cultivation was at the Paragon Soul Realm, capable of rending the heavens, he had absolutely no energy to use. As for this body, it had no cultivation to speak of.

He was in Meteorite City, the location he was originally born in. This was a mere coincidence, but he was somewhat happy that the city still stood after thousands of years had passed.

”In the Deep Mines, there is a strange force within. My soul and heavenly energy seem to be bogged down, restricted and suppressed, thoroughly trapping myself. The only way to act was to use my physical body to escape. Unfortunately, the force there was too powerful, only allowing me to send this portion of my soul away. I need to use the Immortal Herculean Method.” He calmly assessed.

The unknown force within the Deep Mines was like entering an endless abyss, and only strength was sufficient to pull away, climb out and escape. He had no idea the Deep Mines, an area he had once wished to explore, was so mysterious and powerful.

Despite his heaven-rivaling power, he was still rendered useless. It was interesting.

”I only have a few decades, so I'll need to act fast,” Yan Zaizen muttered. Indeed, he was still on a clock. He had to enter Hell to rescue Pinaka before the barrier Eloah had bestowed him ran out of time. If he wasted too much time, he would regret it.

”I can't cultivate the Heavenly Path. This body doesn't have a True Origin, so it'll be impossible to transcend the Qi Unification Realm. I can only cultivate my body and slowly restore my soul strength.” He once more clarified his position and sighed. The Immortal Herculean Method was the only way to survive.

Luckily, he had a Regalia of the Heavens. It was inside the ring he left to this soul of his - the Regalia of Mimicry that belonged to the Yan Ancestor. He didn't know what changes that'll have to the Immortal Herculean Physique, but it was his only course of action.

He'll have to start anew.
