Chapter 357

In the 135th year of the Great Shun dynasty, in a dark corner of a seaside fishing village, a lame old beggar about fifty years old just breathed his last in hunger and cold.

Just then, a lingering fragment of a wandering soul possessed the freshly dead body, and moments later the lame old man opened his cloudy eyes again…

After the residual divine power slightly repaired the flesh, you thereby regained life!

"So that's how you use it…"

Having successfully survived the apocalyptic calamity, you couldn't help but sigh, rubbing with your rough big hand the small sand tray that had just brought you to safety.

Indeed, there must be a solution to clearing the game!

"Since your other self sent it over, that shows it truly can lead you to a perfect ending; you just haven't figured out its specific use yet."

Who said the mighty "Pangu Possession" could only bring you into a dream of the primordial wilderness? Upon careful thought, its power to shatter myriad laws simply dominates this dream world, because the dream world is essentially a world constituted by "law"; theoretically, from the moment you possess it, aside from dying of old age, you are already immortal!

Pangu divine power will destroy any force that tries to harm you, even if it originates from the dream master's apocalyptic power—it can still break it!

So your earlier worries were actually an underestimation of yourself; the monkey's death won't affect you…

After sighing for a while, you couldn't help but wonder: this news is certainly good, but what use is it?

Could it be that as long as the monkey dies a few more times, you can clear the game?

That logic is probably not trustworthy…

After thinking left and right without finding a reason, you shook your head, deciding to set aside this thorny problem for now… you have more important matters to verify!

With a nervous feeling, your bodily self found another dark corner to lie down; after estimating that you wouldn't draw attention, you took a deep breath and slowly activated Pangu divine power…

……

Eternal Primordial Wasteland, Eastern Wasteland.

The lame-old-man-state Lin Six opened his eyes, lifted his head to gaze upon the boundless sky, and breathed in the abundant spiritual qi between heaven and earth; his mood inexplicably calmed: although he hadn't returned here since becoming a god, this realm brimming with bliss remained exactly as he remembered…

"One life, two experiences."

With experience, you didn't run around aimlessly as before; after a quick sense of direction, you swiftly reached the nearest Demon Race town… without a word, you went straight to the Heavenly Court office and revealed your identity to the local heavenly officials.

Several heavenly officials were shocked and hurriedly reported upward!

Soon after, two people rushed over at top speed, disregarding all decorum, fearing any mishap on your part would cause irreversible consequences!

"You've finally arrived!"

The leading figure wore a yellow robe; though he looked young, his bearing was solemn and profound, like a tranquil sea.

He occupied the supreme position, and even the Mystic-robed Emperor accompanying him instinctively stood at his side…

After meeting, he seemed even more excited than you expected, his gaze toward you full of closeness.

You didn't know him, so this closeness felt strange… but now is clearly no time for idle talk; you said nothing extra and directly told him everything you had witnessed and done in the dream world.

He and the Mystic-robed Emperor at his side listened attentively… upon hearing that you, as the Blood God Son, forcibly controlled beings and ferried them to the primordial wilderness, he first glanced at you in surprise, seemingly reassessing your nature due to your decisive slaughter…

But such a trivial matter didn't affect his judgment; he immediately told the Mystic-robed Emperor at his side: "Go to the Asura Realm to find Xue Xuan, and send people to carefully search the primordial wilderness for those who came from the dream world—make sure they are safe!"

"Yes, Great Chieftain!"

The Mystic-robed Emperor didn't mind being ordered at all; he even felt a bit excited, as it made him feel like he was back in the fervent days of charging into battle under the Great Chieftain's command!

The Heavenly Emperor's supreme order was conveyed downward and swiftly executed; under this highly efficient heavenly bureaucracy, the information you wanted was soon reported upward.

"Report to the Heavenly Emperor: across all regions of the five domains and four seas, we have found a total of 7,654,092,834 humans matching the dream world's characteristics; a few suffered death or injury from earth-fire and poison, and we have also handed them over to the Reincarnation Hall… confirming none are missing!"

Upon hearing the report, the Mystic-robed Heavenly Emperor nodded: "And what about Xue Xuan?"

"The Asura King has just finished his sleep and is on his way here…"

As he spoke, a black-robed youth gradually appeared before everyone.

The moment you saw him, you recognized him; his appearance matched exactly that from the dream world… but when he saw you, he clearly froze for a moment…

"How did you change…"

Before Xue Xuan could finish his astonished question, you quickly told him what had happened to you afterward.

After hearing, Xue Xuan's expression grew grave: "You mean… you cannot ferry yourself?"

You sighed helplessly…

You truly did your best, but it's impossible: to achieve longevity you must become a divine body, yet once you cultivate a divine body you can no longer use Pangu divine power.

Even the final protector of Pangu divine power only takes effect after the heavenly cataclysm has worn away your divine body… This unsolvable bug, you still have no way to fix it!

"Able to ferry all beings, yet unable to ferry oneself…"

Xuan Du pondered, then curiously asked: "Since you can reach the primordial wilderness, couldn't you first cultivate as a true immortal of longevity here, then return to the dream?"

"Your only trouble is lifespan, and immortals lack nothing in that regard…"

What a wonderful cross-world idea! Here we suggest renaming it to "My Sand Tray Connects to the Primordial Wasteland", "I Have a Primordial Wasteland World", "In the Primordial Wasteland I Act as the Reckless Grandfather"…

The idea is good, but the first step fails!

"Impossible."

You helplessly said: "My body and consciousness here in the primordial wilderness are merely products of entering the dream; my true self remains in the dream world, so even if I become an immortal, it will still have no effect on my true self…"

Simply put, the script you currently hold is not the transmigration type "I Have a Primordial Wasteland World", but the online-game type "Legend of the Primordial Wasteland".

Your entering the dream is equivalent to logging into a game account in the "game cabin"; no matter how powerful you become in the game, it's fake, not real (Long Shu advises study)…

Thus, Xuan Du's proposal was rejected.

"Then how about this?"

After careful thought, Xue Xuan proposed a rather practical method: "Since you can seize a new body while in a soulless state after losing your divine body, why not prepare countless bodies in the dream world and then switch them one after another?"

"As long as you always have a young body, you are effectively immortal."

Little Black's suggestion remains that extreme, but upon reflection it truly is an effective good method!

In any case, divine-path cultivators are innately able to endlessly reincarnate and seize bodies; the operation of the netherworld works the same way—if you have infinite backup bodies, you achieve immortality.

Thus, this chapter's script could be renamed to "I Can Endlessly Reincarnate", "In the Dream, Eternal Longevity", "Immortal Clan of Longevity"…

But this tempting feasible plan was rejected by you right away!

The reason is only one: "I live forever to save all beings, not to save all beings in order to live forever!"

"If I really intended to seize a body and live forever in the dream world, wouldn't that mean heaven and earth would have to specially raise a group of mortals who cannot be saved in the primordial wilderness just for me?"

"This is absolutely not what I want."

Your stubbornness leaves Xue Xuan wanting to speak but holding back: in fact he really thinks this method could work, and as long as it's executed properly, it wouldn't cause anyone to be unable to transcend.

But since you're unwilling, he can't insist either, after all you're the protagonist now, and that unbeatable Xiao Heizi from back then has long faded…

And just after you rejected two proposals, the silent yellow-robed person suddenly spoke.

"I actually think your plans are all wrong, including what Zhao Si told you earlier…"

His astonishing remark left everyone staring at him in amazement.

You: "Why?"

Xiao Heizi: "How so?"

Xuan Du: "Who is Zhao Si?"

Three former protagonists: …

Jin Bing lightly patted Xuan Du's shoulder: "It's fine, go have fun."

The outsider Xuan Du was dazedly kicked out of the party…

After seeing off the unrelated personnel, the three former protagonists formally began their internal meeting.

"Including Zhao Si, your plans have been wrong from the very start."

The most senior of the original protagonists said in a deep voice.

"Have you never considered that Pangu's possession has never been our three's private property; its master has always been Zhao Si in the unseen depths?"

"External aid will ultimately return to its master, so if you base all your clearance strategies on using Pangu's divine power, those strategies will have no feasibility."

"Lean on a mountain and it will fall; lean on a person and they will flee!"

"We might as well boldly guess that the ultimate solution of this chapter lies not in external aid, but in……yourself!"
