A woman silently mourned in front of a newly installed tombstone, sending the owner of the tomb on his last journey.
The name of the tomb owner is engraved on the tombstone: Lin Jichen, who died at the age of 29.
The woman's name is Ren Lan, Lin Jichen's college senior.
She stood silently in front of the tombstone, looking at the photo on the tombstone. The owner in the photo was handsome and elegant, with eyes like bright stars.
Ren Lan looked at the photo and was stunned.
The cemetery staff came over and pushed a shelf with an ebony-colored urn placed on it.
"It's time to bury it, madam, should you put it in, or should we?" the staff reminded.
"Let me do it."
Ren Lan walked over with a heavy heart, took the urn, and carefully placed it into the small square pit under the tombstone.
"I didn't expect that we haven't seen each other for so many years, but it would be like this when we meet again."
Ren Lan was talking to herself, with mist filling her eyes.
Her voice was choked with sobs, unable to conceal her grief.
"Tell me, if you had believed me, how could you have ended up like this? You clearly had a promising future in "Eight Wastelands", but you had to trust treacherous people and you didn't know you were deceived... Oh, forget it, it's all
It’s passed..."
"Madam, please put the deceased's belongings in as well." The staff reminded again.
Ren Lan nodded and put in the last relic left by Lin Jichen with red eyes.
But suddenly she remembered something and hurriedly dug out a recording pen from her belongings.
There is also a piece of paper stuck to the recording pen, with a line of small words written on it: Ren Lan, I will open it when I am buried.
Ren Lan kept remembering it. She was so sad just now that she almost forgot.
Looking at the recorder in his hand, Ren Lan chose to play, and an audio clip was played.
"Crazy bitch, long time no see, haha, you didn't expect that I have become an immortal and will ascend to the immortal world. I probably won't have a chance to see you again. I think you will miss me a lot, so I'll leave you some time."
The recording is ready..."
The voice in the audio was very cheerful, without the slightest hint of seriousness or sadness as he delivered his last words. He even jokingly compared his own death to attaining enlightenment and becoming an immortal.
Ren Lan was not surprised at all, because the Lin Jichen she knew had always been so optimistic and sunny.
The recording continues.
"Actually, I want to apologize to you. If only I had listened to you earlier, but this is all my own blindness. I don't blame others. I'm sorry, my senior Ren Lan. If we are destined to meet again in the next life, I will continue.
I'll bully you and be a taekwondo punching bag for you... Hehe... Then... I have to say goodbye..."
Hearing this, Ren Lan burst into tears. This was the second time she could remember crying.
The first time he cried was when Lin Jichen misunderstood him and broke up with him.
She wanted to live a strong life, but Ren Lan, a female man who claimed to have never cried, failed because of Lin Jichen.
However, in the next second, the audio style changed.
"Damn it! Where is this? Why is it so dark!"
"Shouldn't I be enlightened and become an immortal? Why are you locking me in a small box? Help me~"
"Is there anyone who can help me? I'm scared~Ya Zhudie~"
"Dah ah ah ah! Da ah ah yo~"
Several staff nearby were amused. They had never seen such a strange last word.
Generally speaking, they will never laugh in this kind of work, and they are professionally trained.
Phew.
Ren Lan also laughed, wiped away tears, and cursed at the owner of the tombstone: "Lin Jichen, it belongs to your uncle!"
....
Ding ding dong dong...
The cell phone rang, waking up Lin Jichen who was sleeping soundly.
"Hey, my head hurts."
Lin Jichen covered his head and opened his eyes. His body and nose were filled with the unpleasant smell of alcohol and stomach acid caused by vomiting.
Looking at the room that clearly felt strange yet seemed like he had seen it before before, his brain was short-circuited for a moment.
"Holy shit, where is this? Why does it look so much like my dormitory in college?"
"I was severely injured by Zhu Jiuyin, the boss of the Immortal Realm, and was unable to be cured by medicine or stone. I finally died and my path disappeared. Why am I still alive?"
"Hey! Where is my storage ring, where is my elixir palace, why are there nothing?"
...
ten minutes later.
After Lin Jichen's repeated confirmation, he finally understood.
He was reborn.
Back to ten years ago!
This year, he had just finished the college entrance examination and was in his freshman year.
At nineteen years old, he is young and full of vitality.
As for why he was reborn, Lin Jichen thought carefully about it.
If he guessed correctly, it had something to do with him snatching the jade pendant in Zhu Jiuyin's cave.
As soon as Lin Jichen got the jade pendant, it disappeared. But a second before he died, he vaguely remembered seeing the jade pendant again, and it was emitting a dazzling light.
Immediately afterwards, he returned to ten years ago.
Lin Jichen thought for a moment and then he remembered.
Before "Bahuang" was integrated into the real world, there were always rumors.
The most powerful beast in the Immortal Realm, Zhu Jiuyin, has a supreme artifact called the Pisces Pendant, which can comprehend the laws of heaven.
But no one has ever gotten it. After being framed, he accidentally fell into Zhu Jiuyin's cave.
The jade pendant you got is most likely the legendary Pisces pendant.
Unexpectedly, this legendary artifact gave him a chance to be reborn.
"Since God will not destroy me, Xu Zihui, Guo Jie, you two traitors! In this life, I will also let you taste the pain of betrayal and separation!"
Lin Jichen stood up and went to the mirror in the dormitory. He looked at himself in the mirror, his eyes flashing with cold light and a bone-chilling chill.
Before his rebirth, he had just experienced the most miserable and desperate time in his life.
Guo Jie, his girlfriend whom he had loved for ten years, betrayed him and got together with his most trusted brother, Xu Ziqi.
The two even conspired to defraud him of all the wealth, elixirs, and magic weapons he had accumulated over the past ten years.
In the end, he was tricked into the abyss of Zhu Jiuyin to die.
Even though Lin Jichen was already a powerful man in the Enlightenment Realm and the best Dharma Cultivator in the world at that time, he was no match for this terrifying beast from the Immortal Realm, and finally managed to escape with serious injuries.
However, because the injury was too serious and there was no cure, Lin Jichen passed away not long after.
Lin Jichen looked back on his previous life and found that his life had become a complete tragedy.
A typical good hand played badly.
He clearly has many better choices and many people who treat him sincerely.
But because of stubbornness and crazy confidence in my own vision.
He would reject a girl who was sincerely interested in him and treat her with cold words, but he would embrace a woman who was like a snake and a scorpion in his arms and obey her in every possible way.
Thinking about it, Lin Jichen felt that he was extremely ridiculous.
God has eyes and allows him to go back to ten years ago, that is, 2040.
On this day, August 8, 2040.
A virtual online game with 100% fidelity was born, called "Bahuang".
Developed independently by the so-called universe-level artificial intelligence "Nu Wa", this first virtual online game of the era is created based on the background of many national cultures.
Originally everyone thought this was just a virtual game.
It wasn’t until five years after the game was launched that something strange happened!
First, a few players discovered that the abilities and magic weapons in the game can be brought into reality, and even the NPCs in the game can also be brought into reality.
Once this discovery was exposed, players from all over the world rushed into "Eight Wastelands" crazily, just to obtain various abilities, cultivation levels, magic weapons, elixirs, magical powers, etc. in the game.
But what followed was that various evil spirits, boss villains, mighty beast tides, etc. in the game gradually came to reality.
Even the world in the game merges with reality.
It was this game that made Lin Jichen become a strong man in the realm of enlightenment, allowing him to have everything, but at the same time, he also lost everything.
But now, everything is starting from scratch, all over again.
Lin Jichen believed that based on his understanding of "Eight Wastelands" in the past ten years.
He knows all about various secret realms, hidden missions, immortal caves, divine pets, divine weapons, etc.
Coupled with the skills he has honed over the past ten years, Lin Jichen is absolutely confident that he can become the strongest immortal cultivator in the Eight Wastelands!
This game has been in operation for ten years. If the time for world integration is excluded, the actual game has only been in operation for five years.
But Lin Jichen only played for four years.
He only came into contact with the game in the second year after its public beta, and it started off very poorly, with only a very useless talent.
Even so, he still came from behind.
He has caught up with most of the players and entered the top ten of the [Eight Desolate Heaven Rankings].
The current time is August 7, 2040.
The open beta of "Bahuang" is tonight!
Lin Jichen tried hard to adjust his breathing and suppress his emotions. He swept away the haze before his rebirth and grinned at the mirror.
In this life, he will start over and take revenge!
In this life, he wants to make up for all the regrets in his previous life and compensate those he owes.
In this life, he must not miss another year and waste the most precious early game time.
Even if the start is still the same as in the previous life, I only get useless talents.
Lin Jichen is still very confident that he can rely on his understanding of "Eight Desolations" and ten years of technology to leave everyone far behind and aspire to dominate the entire Eight Desolations world!
Ding ding dong dong...
The phone rang again.
Lin Jichen took the Warwick Tianwen mobile phone from ten years ago. The caller ID on it was: [Crazy Granny].
Seeing this name, Lin Jichen couldn't help but smile brightly and immediately chose to connect.
"Xiao Linzi! Why did you just answer my call? Something big happened. I'm telling you big news. You must hold on!"
On the other end of the phone, a young and energetic girl's voice came.
Lin Jichen did not pay attention to the content, but simply recalled the voice.
How long had it been since he heard this voice? It had been ten years.
But it's still so familiar and friendly.
"I'm sorry, crazy bitch." Lin Jichen whispered suddenly.
"Huh? What are you sorry for?" The person on the other end obviously didn't respond.
"It's nothing, I just want to express my feelings."
Lin Jichen chuckled and fooled around casually.
In his previous life, he was most sorry for two girls, and Ren Lan was one of them.
