Chapter 1607 - 449: Inspector’s Token (Double-Length - , Finale Countdown: 1)_2
A memory he had never touched suddenly surged into his mind.
This memory began with the cry of a newborn baby.
When Lin Su saw the person in his memory who picked up his newly born self, his expression changed from confusion to complexity.
That person was Lin Zhen Nan in his youth.
This memory was from Lin Su's childhood as the Martial God.
At the beginning of his crossing, he had tried to retrieve this memory to better integrate into his new identity, but he never recalled a single bit.
As Lin Su had gradually let go of this matter, thoroughly embracing his identity as the Martial God Lin Su, this memory abruptly invaded his mind.
He saw Lin Zhen Nan hoping that in the future he could become a martial arts powerhouse like the Lin Family ancestor from a thousand years ago, even achieving the Martial Domain Realm, and therefore naming him Su, meaning "upstream retracing."
He saw Yun Zhenzhen bullying him and Lin Ye as children, often making him cry, yet taking out the best sugar figurines from Yongnan City to appease them, telling them not to inform their families.
He saw his teenage self avoiding training, indulging in fun and unwilling to practice martial arts, causing Lin Zhen Nan much concern, frequently rolling up his sleeves to hit him, but always being stopped by his mother Chen Yu, who adored her son.
He saw his ever-loving second uncle Lin Zhantian unable to resist his pleading, taking him to the market where he unexpectedly bonded with the beast taming lineage, witnessing his uncle's deeply complex and helpless expression.
He saw Lin Zhen Nan furious with his decision to choose beast taming, his uncle taking all the blame, kneeling before Lin Zhen Nan, listening to his own attempts to explain, but receiving Lin Zhen Nan's order to kill all the exotic beasts in the backyard and the judgment that he was "a rotten wood that cannot be carved."
He saw himself in mental disarray from consecutive blows, drowning accidentally.
Some of the experiences in these memories had been shared by the Lin Family to help him regain his memory, while others were revelations to Lin Su.
They spanned Lin Su's life from birth to eighteen, completing the last part he had been missing.
At the end of these memories was a conversation in darkness.
...
"Where am I?"
"You want to live."
"Who?"
"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that I can make you live."
"But there are some conditions."
"What conditions?"
"You will obscure past memories, casting yourself into another world, experiencing a new life there."
"What kind of life is that? I want my parents, I want my current life!"
"Alright."
"Now you are eighteen."
"After reaching eighteen in another world, you will return."
"Then, I shall grant you the power to traverse between worlds."
"As for your memories, when we meet again, you will remember them."
"Go!"
"Who are you?"
"Me?"
"My name is Shou."
...
Lin Su's eyes widened uncontrollably as he recalled this conversation.
He stared at the creature before him, his breathing becoming ragged.
It seemed as though countless thunderbolts were crashing through his mind, rumbling continuously.
The dialogue in his memory was between himself and the entity named Shou before him.
And this conversation answered many of his doubts, yet shattered his previous understanding of himself.
He realized the origin of his ability to cross worlds, understanding why Shou said "we meet again."
But before this moment, Lin Su had never imagined that he was not originally from Blue Star.
He wasn't occupying the body in the Martial God world as an outsider.
He had only returned to his rightful home after experiencing eighteen years on Blue Star, with fresh memories.
After a long silence, Lin Su finally calmed his emotions from the shock.
He looked at Shou again, slowly speaking to ask the question he most wanted to know at the moment.
"Where am I? Where are Blue Star and the Martial God world?"
"This place is called Chaos." Shou's gaze scanned the surroundings, slowly speaking, "As you see, Chaos nurtures countless realms, each realm containing innumerable creatures, with different rules and power systems."
"For Chaos, the birth and demise of realms is as ordinary as breathing."
"And the time within realms does not correspond with that in Chaos, whereby a moment in Chaos may equate to billions of years for beings inside a realm."
"For beings within realms, a realm isn't confinement, but protection." Shou casually pointed to a staggering creature emerging from a realm and then getting lost in Chaos, "Ordinary beings stepping out would be lost in Chaos."
"Because Chaos contains infinite paths."
"These paths are varied in strength, some masterless, some mastered."
"They are chaotically tangled here, causing cognitive and conscious disorder in ordinary beings."
"Only when one's power reaches a certain level, clarifying one's path and mastering one's law, does one qualify to walk in Chaos, instead of getting lost like that poor soul."
"This level is referred to as the Mythical Rank and Martial God Realm on Blue Star and in the Martial God world."
"In Chaos, it is known as the Dao Source Realm."
Dao Source Realm...
Lin Su pondered.
So he had reached the Mythical Rank as a Beast Tamer, achieving this realm, hence wouldn't get lost in Chaos?
He couldn't help but cast his gaze again at Shou.
