Chapter 2 Yu Yu Yu
Several days later, at the Fifth Hospital of Minjiang City.
early morning.
In a private ward, Lin Yu, dressed in a hospital gown, sat by the window, gazing at the silhouette of a sun hanging in the distant sky.
After a long while, until his eyes were red from the sunlight, he lowered his head slightly, a bitter smile playing on his lips, his eyes still filled with disbelief.
"The great sun, belonging to the category of 'True Yang,' was hidden from the world in the cultivation realm of the past, and its fruition had not been manifest for many years. Thus, day and night rotated—during the day, there was a dim and dark sky; at night, there was only the bright and clear moon. However, in this world, the great sun hangs high, as if it were the true master of the fruition of 'True Yang.'"
"However, given the overwhelming power and domineering nature of the True Yang fruition, if I dared to look directly at its body, even with perfected Five Elements and an extremely advanced Purple Mansion, it would be no more than a short while before the Great Sun True Essence entered my body, causing my internal organs to burn and I to die..."
"However, I have been staring at the sun for dozens of seconds now, but I still haven't seen any of the sun's true essence pouring down; I only feel a slight pain in my eyes..."
"...It seems that at this moment, this world is no longer the cultivation world it once was, but rather the [World of Severed Spirits] that appears in my memories."
Lin Yu's mind was filled with a mix of thoughts, memories flowing through her heart like water, converging together, and finally turning into a soft sigh filled with mixed feelings.
"Oh……"
Lin Yu.
Lin Yu.
They sound similar, but are quite different in reality.
Two people representing two different worlds, with different life trajectories.
The former is an ordinary middle-aged programmer in the 21st century, as lifeless as twilight, who spends his days slacking off and waiting to die at an internet company.
The latter, however, is a genius from another world who mastered the Five Arts in just two hundred years, dominating the world and seeking to attain the [Sinking Wood] Golden Core fruit!
Fetal breathing, Qi refining, foundation building, Purple Mansion. Layer upon layer of heavenly gates, from front to back, each gate locking away dozens or even hundreds of times more people than those behind.
Even mastering supernatural powers and entering the Purple Mansion realm is an achievement that is unimaginable for ordinary people.
As for the Golden Elixir...
That would require refining a trace of immortal golden essence, gaining the favor of a high-ranking official, and ultimately proving oneself through personal experience, mastering one of the rules of heaven and earth, thus achieving immortality, transcending suffering, and becoming a "True Lord" whom all cultivators in the world look up to, admire, and worship!
Although Lin Yu in his previous life ultimately failed at the last step, he was still the person who came closest to the Golden Core stage in hundreds of years.
Although he died and his cultivation dissipated, even now that his past life has been restored and his memories have returned, he knows nothing about the cultivation world after his death.
—But now, even just based on the common sense in Lin Yu's memory, Lin Yu can imagine that the cultivation world has probably been shaken to the core, and countless cultivators are in awe and fear.
The spiritual atmosphere within a radius of tens of thousands of miles centered on the place of his death will likely change drastically due to the impact of his failure to attain the Golden Realm. Various spiritual resources and materials related to the [Sinking Wood] level will continuously emerge, making it easier for cultivators of the [Sinking Wood] path to break through in this area...
"Knock knock."
A soft knock on the door interrupted Lin Yu's thoughts.
Before Lin Yu could react, a young nurse in a white suit pushed open the door and entered.
"Mr. Lin," she said as she walked toward Lin Yu, glancing at the report on the clipboard.
"The reports are all in, and there's nothing seriously wrong with you. You can be discharged and go home today."
After the nurse finished speaking fluently, she tore off the report, placed it beside the bed, and then turned and walked out of the ward.
From beginning to end, she barely glanced at Lin Yu, as if the middle-aged man in the ward was just an object placed there.
Lin Yu had barely uttered half of the word "thank you" when she left the ward.
This isn't just disrespect; it's downright ignoring it.
But Lin Yu watched her retreating figure without feeling any emotional fluctuation in his heart.
"...I look so lifeless and dejected now, I really am no different from a pebble on the roadside."
Thinking this, Lin Yu couldn't help but smile.
"Born into a prominent family in his previous life, he was born with innate spiritual talent. He practiced embryonic breathing for a hundred days, entered the Dao at the age of three, established his Dao foundation [Fuji Palace] at fifteen, and completed the foundation building at thirty..."
"...Although elevating the Dao foundation to the rising sun, maintaining supernatural powers within the mouth, and transcending boundless illusions to achieve the Purple Mansion is an unimaginable achievement for ordinary cultivators, he only took ten years to emerge from seclusion, forty years to overlook the world, and was respectfully addressed as 'True Man'. Finally, he achieved mastery of the Five Methods in two hundred years, perfecting all kinds of supernatural powers, and could be considered the leader below the True Monarchs of his time..."
"However, upon waking up after the ordeal, I found myself in this world as a dull and boring middle-aged man."
"The cycle of human life changes more than this."
All the memories of Lin Yu were imprinted in Lin Yu's mind, and a cryptic smile appeared on his lips.
On one side was a powerful cultivator at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm.
On one side are middle-aged people who have no one to rely on.
Such a disparity, if considered carefully, is enough to break an ordinary person.
However, cultivators are not ordinary people, let alone a "quasi-True Monarch" like Lin Yu who is only one step away from becoming a Golden Master!
The cultivation, tempering, and self-cultivation he underwent over those two hundred years have given him a perspective that allows him to see far and wide, even though he is now a mortal without great power.
Even though this world is a "world devoid of spirits," Lin Yu felt no despair whatsoever.
Therefore, he was neither annoyed nor resentful; instead, a bright joy arose in his heart.
"The fact that the securities firm failed and didn't transform into a demon, giving it a second chance to be reborn, is already a stroke of luck..."
"not to mention……"
Lin Yu's enigmatic smile vanished, but the look in her eyes sharpened dramatically.
"...This world has never been mentioned in any ancient or modern texts, whether Taoist or demonic, even in the 'World of Extinction'—no, precisely because it is the 'World of Extinction', it might just be where my destiny lies!"
……
Lin Yu completed the discharge procedures at noon.
Although I was being discharged from the hospital, I didn't have much to take with me.
He collapsed at the company that day, and after his colleagues called an ambulance, he stayed at the hospital. Although he had applied to the hospital for extra money to move to a VIP ward to provide a quiet environment for recovering his past life memories, he didn't bring anything else to the hospital.
As for the coma that day, the main reason was, of course, Lin Yu's memory recovery.
The second reason is that the bodies of ordinary people today are too weak to handle the flood of memories spanning two hundred years of life all at once.
After all, a lifespan of two hundred years exceeds the lifespan of many dynasties on this planet.
Not to mention that even if it is the same second, the amount of information contained in the second experienced by the Grand Master of the Purple Mansion is almost worlds apart from that experienced by an ordinary person.
Therefore, it was already a stroke of luck that Lin Yu did not die suddenly after his head exploded after he awakened the memories belonging to Lin Yu.
The reason he can still stand safely in the same place now is not only because the two lives are essentially the same, and Lin Yu and Lin Yu were originally one, which is a mysterious reason that even Lin Yu, the Great True Person of the Purple Mansion, cannot fully understand.
More importantly, many of Lin Yu's memories are still hidden below Lin Yu's conscious mind and have not yet been extracted.
This made it impossible for Lin Yu to recall the details of the many supernatural powers and techniques from his previous life.
But this is also the fundamental reason why Lin Yu today still considers himself "Lin Yu" instead of completely seeing himself as a visitor from another world, the high and mighty Purple Mansion True Man Lin Yu.
