Chapter 2252: Fighting Phantoms

Edited by RED

The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ first life had been the most splendid and glorious one, but also the most humiliating one. Lin Feng didn’t understand what that meant. However, he could imagine that kind of humiliation had made him what he had become. Now, he was emotionless and so strong; he stood at the top, and he didn’t care about anyone or anything.

“Five more lives, and you will start understanding me,” smiled the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts.

Once again, Lin Feng’s soul emerged from his body. Each time Lin Feng lived one of the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ lives, he had the impression he had reincarnated. He didn’t feel those lives were the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ lives.

When Lin Feng experienced a few more lives, he felt confused. He hadn’t even finished his own life, and he had experienced seven of the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ lives. As one could well imagine, it was a shocking experience.

Lin Feng’s soul was returned his body. He closed his eyes and forget about the outside world. He thought about all the things he had experienced.

He kept telling himself that those lives weren’t his, but the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’. He had just observed those lives. He couldn’t let those lives influence him. He couldn’t become like the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts!

The seven lives turned into seven stars in his brain. Around the stars were his own memories; he couldn’t mix them with the others. The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ lives could be beneficial to him, as long as he didn’t mix everything up!

—

Lin Feng opened his eyes; he looked normal again. He inspected those lives using his own memories and experience, studying them from the outside.

Lin Feng used the Celestial Evolution Holy Scriptures. However, this time, he didn’t use the Celestial Evolution Holy Scriptures to modify strength; he used them to modify those memories, those lives!

The Celestial Evolution Holy Scriptures were extremely powerful. They allowed him to study those memories while staying relatively safe. Using the things he had studied in the Fortune Shrine’s archive hall, Lin Feng studied for ten days and ten nights, and after that, he felt exhausted and stopped.

He frowned, opened his eyes and sighed. “The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts, in each life, broke through after having understood something great. Each time, he loved his teachers, but in the end, everything becomes cold. In his second life, he was in love with his female junior fellow disciple, but then he became extremely strong and killed her, and at the same time he understood something great. All of this is related to the eight distresses; you become emotionless as you become stronger.

“Apart from his first two lives, the five other ones were similar; he understood incredible things and changed. However, the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts and I are different. I’m at the top of the Huang Qi layer, but I can’t break through to the Di Qi layer. The ten thousand things of creation originate from the same things. I control my own world, but it still needs to be improved. I don’t know what will happen in the future, I don’t know what my close ones will do in the future. However, I think I understand what to do now.”

Lin Feng stood up and walked into that world. That city was like another world, indeed. It was different from all the worlds in which the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts had lived in his previous lives. Of course, when cultivators became stronger, their lives became similar, no matter what world they lived in.

——

Someone came over to Lin Feng. It was the body the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts had in this life. He was in the sky, looking down at Lin Feng. “You still haven’t broken through to the Di Qi layer, even though you’ve experienced my lives?”

The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts didn’t understand. He had noticed Lin Feng’s physical strength, soul, and comprehension were incredible. He had an incredible sense of judgement, and couldn’t be mistaken about Lin Feng. Nevertheless, Lin Feng had experienced his lives, and still hadn’t broken through. As long as a cultivator remained determined, there was no reason for them not to break through.

However, Lin Feng was still at the top of the Huang Qi layer!

“King of the Ten Thousand Beasts, those are your lives. I studied them, but it was useless. My cultivation is different, I have my own life. Therefore, if I stay here, I won’t be able to become stronger. I hope you’ll let me leave this place,” Lin Feng said calmly.

“You want to leave the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ Territory?” repeated the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts. He didn’t understand how Lin Feng felt.

“Yes. After studying your lives, I had the impression you were me. Perhaps many people who come here admire and respect you, and I respect and admire you, too.

“However, I am still me. As you said, if I stand at the top, then nobody will humiliate me ever again. When I reach the top, I will come back and meet you again, I think,” Lin Feng said calmly.

The King of the Ten Thousand Beasts’ eyes glittered as he stared at Lin Feng. Lin Feng would come back after reaching the top? He was truly self-confident…
