Chapter 164: What Nonsense Are You Spouting? (1/2)
[This was what caused my death…] Long revealed;
[I managed to use the knowledge but because I was the first person to use it since the time of those expert I told you about, I had no one to guide me and thus, I failed to get anything higher than the Spirit Link which was even worse than a failure to me…] Long began to confess, stunning Dara and Sam…
[Thus, when you came around and I realized that you were a clean slate who had yet to jump into cultivation without knowing you could achieve better, I stuck to you and waited till you were about to begin your cultivation…] Long revealed as Dara frowned slightly;
[So, you mean-] [Yeah, though I was going to reincarnate, but not in your body, after all I don't know what type of bloodline you have yet until you reach the bloodline realm, and I already have a body I would reincarnate into…]
[Then why did you stick to me then, even going as far as risking your memory and that knowledge being wiped away by the so called Grandma Meng's milk?] Dara couldn't understand Long's motives;
[It's very obvious… He is so addicted to success that if he can't get the best Link for himself, he would find another person and ensure they get it…]
[Furthermore, the fact that a child with no significant background or extraordinary talent could cultivate to become the greatest expert in existence appeared to you as the perfect type of success… Am I right!?] Sam profiled Long and asked;
[You can indeed read your targets behavioral inclinations…]
Long admitted as Dara had to take about three step back just to get enough room to process what he had just learnt…
But to Long and Sam, it appeared like Dara was hurt and utterly disappointed in Long that he looked like he was about to make a drastic decision; but no matter how they felt, they didn't want to push it and instead wanted to hear his thoughts first;
[So, I am basically your experimental specimen?]
Dara asked with a flat tone which made Long and Sam sigh in regret as it seemed he had already made a decision that would not bode well for them at all, thus, Long decided to go for broke;
[Yes… I plan on creating the perfect being… The best of the best… A first, with no precursors or ancestors…]
[I spent my whole life gathering information and secrets that have been lost since the Primordial Era just to make myself the perfect being, but whilst I didn't amount to 1 percent of the ideal person I wanted to become, I was still one of the top three strongest experts in my realm…]
[If you can use 10 percent of the knowledge in my head to cultivate, then I can assure you that you will have enough power to rival my idol…]
[Become 20 percent of my perfect being, and you will be able to shatter planets with a simple snort…]
[If you manage to achieve 50 percent in your lifetime, you will become an unparalleled existence…] Long stopped and sighed;
[But I guess I have simply overdone it… Being addicted to success is truly a bad thing…]
[You never get satisfied even if you have 99.99 percent, and it landed me in a bad spot; Not only did my own love stab me in the back, my best friend also dealt the finishing blow, and now, I have repulsed you…]
[You can do whatever you want, even if you want to cast me away, the worst that would happen is I would simply be captured by those ancient experts once they sense my presence and be tortured for generations…] Long added as Dara's frown even deepened the more;
