Chapter 754 - Salute, To The Unyielding Me (1/2)

Zhong Yue sat down quietly, he raised the saber ray up on the Six Paths Reincarnation in the center of the palace, shining on Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan's Dao totem patterns. The Dao totem patterns were extremely profound to the point that they were indecipherable to him.

He calmed himself and studied them carefully; even if he didn't understand anything now, as long as he never stopped studying them, he would one day be able to learn something from them.

Days flashed by, then months, then years.

When Zhong Yue was finally able to glean a tiny part of the Heavenly Monarch's totem patterns, 500 years had already elapsed. Ever since then, more and more mysteries became clear to him over time.

Another a thousand years had passed, Zhong Yue finally understood all of the totem patterns in the Six Paths Reincarnation. From there on, he started to calculate the flaw in the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror.

It took another 1,500 years for him to derive the flaw in the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror.

Zhong Yue had now turned into a middle-aged man, his face was repleted with the vicisstudes of life as he looked up at the mirror in the center of the Six Paths Reincarnation. The mirror was the core of the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror, forged by Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan himself.

In it, there was only one flaw—a surge of innate Qi that was incompatible with the other innate Qi.

That left him with only one way to leave, that is to break that surge of innate Qi!

However, if I wield the saber against the innate Qi, the reaction force from the impact will kill me on the spot as even though this innate Qi is not on the Heavenly Monarch level, it's no much inferior to that too.

Zhong Yue examed the innate Qi through its reflection in the saber ray and found that admist the innate totem patterns in the innate Qi, one of them was cleaved apart by what was possibly a saber.

It's me from the past life that did it. The innate totem pattern was severed but I was also killed immediately after. What a shame, I can't fully pass down all of my knowledge and findings to myself in the next life.

Zhong Yue exhaled deeply, he wrote down the attainments he had on the ground. That way, when the future him arrived, he would be able to understand them quicker and find the flaw in the mirror faster.

However, even so, the attainments were still incredibly abstruse, it would still take a long time for his future self to comprehend them.

If only I can pass all my memories to the next life, I won't have to go through all these hassles one life after another anymore. What a pity I am not strong enough to do that…

After Zhong Yue finished writing his attainments on the ground, he pulled out the innate divine saber formed with the Heavenly Monarch's sword hilt, surged all of his arcane energy into it and brought it down heavily on the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror!

"I WILL LEAVE FOR SURE!"

He roared at the top of his lungs as the saber ray blinded the palace, and the tremendous explosion from the impact ravaged the whole palace. He was vaporized in an instant and along with it, one of the many totem patterns was also cleaved apart!

Not a single bit of Zhong Yue's mortal body was left behind, while his soul and spirit was sucked away by the Six Paths Reincarnation on the palace center and into the Heaven Origin Reincarnation Mirror.

The Six Paths Reincarnation revolved rapidly, its power unleashed and a bright ray shot out from the mirror, disappearing at the end of the maze.

When the light dispersed, Zhong Yue was seen standing on the ground with a deeply puzzled face. He took out the Heavenly Monarch's sword hilt and examined it carefully.

"So I still have so many flaws." Zhong Yue looked at his reflection in the saber ray and mumbled.

He then shone the saber ray at the totem patterns on the walls and exclaimed in shock, "How is this even possible? They are in their simplest form already and I still can't glean anything out of them? What level are they possibly in? Xin Huo, do you know anything about these totem patterns?"

…

He was walking down the corridor, discovering himself trapped inside of a maze, and saw the warnings he has left on the sides of the walls.

"Wrong, only death stands ahead."

"These words… they look familiar. Maybe they are from someone from the 3,000 Six Paths World grand competition who has also fallen into the mirror."

…

Half a year later, he has reached the end of the maze and saw the grand palace.

"No, this isn't right. This is the galactic art of 6,000 years ago, they are different to the one on the ceiling, something is slightly off between the two… Wait, the totem patterns, I…"

"My own totem patterns? I was the one who drew the galactic art? When did I draw it? When was I here?"

"It's this Six Paths Reincarnation, reviving me after every death and thrown me back to the same spot one time after another…"

…

"I WILL LEAVE FOR SURE!"

...

3,000 years later, Zhong Yue was revived again, walking down the same path.

"Wrong, only death stands ahead."

"These words… they look familiar. Maybe they are from someone from the 3,000 Six Paths World grand competition who has also fallen into the mirror."

"No, this isn't right. This is the galactic art of 9,000 years ago, they are different to the one on the ceiling, something is off between the two… Wait, the totem patterns, I…"

"... This is the galactic art of 120 thousand years ago, they are different to the one on the ceiling, the differences are huge between the two…"

"... This is the galactic art of three million years ago, they are completely different to the one on the ceiling, if it wasn't for the divinatory calculation technique, it's impossible to know they are of the same universe."

"... This is the galactic art of a hundred million years ago, someone is here a hundred million years ago? Is that even possible? Even Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan was just a presence of only tens of thousand years ago."

"... This is the galactic art of two billion years ago, why is there such an ancient galactic art here?"

"... This is the galactic art of 5.6 billion years ago? So terrifying, what kind of existence was it that lived five thousand six hundred million years ago?"
