this infinite world

For most people, death is not a good thing, because it means the end of everything and means that their life will be reset to zero.

But for Yang Yun, just as Dumbledore, who lived for more than a century, said, death is just another great adventure.

In fact, for Yang Yun, who actively committed death, he was still able to maintain his own consciousness in the state of death, and even like a ghost that others could not see, he was reborn with the identity of "Yang Yun" and then looked at his life from the perspective of a bystander.

...Although perhaps it is to distinguish the difference between life and death, in Yang Yun's eyes, the perspective of this bystander is black and white.

Yang Yun also wondered why his death was different from that of all the others, but when he thought about his understanding of "Origin - Instant Reincarnation" and his ability to understand the meaning of life and death, he stopped worrying about these things.

What's wrong with being a bystander who can't affect the material world? Among the travelers in the heavens and myriad worlds, there are quite a few who began to practice in their mother's womb; there are also many who can speak after three days and walk after five days; not to mention the three who safely passed the end of the era without any loss of power or status, as if they were already independent existences outside the multiverse.

——Now that I think about it, I really made a lot of mistakes.

Seeing how he easily gained the trust of others, but was eventually betrayed by the person he thought he could trust and entered the main god space, Yang Yun couldn't help but smile helplessly. Although it was much better than the experience of being framed and falsely accused by others in the last era, and then entering the main god space in despair after being imprisoned for several years, in essence, his character was too weak.

Being too accustomed to empathizing with others, and trying to understand the other person's words from between the lines, even if you know that the other person is wrong, you will try to understand the other person from their perspective, and take it as a burden on yourself to better understand each other.

Perhaps the people after the restart are still the same people, the things are still the same things, and there will eventually be two similar flowers in the world, one withered, the other bloomed. But things in the world are like flowing water, always changing. In the world after the restart, those who were there before may not be able to walk the same path as in the previous era, and achieve the same achievements as before.

Just like the DC world where Dr. Manhattan came from, there are many completely different Batmans in many parallel universes - male, female, old, young, righteous, evil, murderers, non-murderers... Even in some strange universes, there are magical developments such as Bruce Wayne himself died in that alley, and his father became Batman, and his mother became the Joker.

"But, looking at it this way...it seems that I am not completely lying?"

Thinking of how he had been talking endlessly to Chu Xuan in the room about his return from the final battle, trying to gain his trust as much as possible, Yang Yun couldn't help but laugh.

When he first entered the main god space, Yang Yun thought that he could rely on his understanding of this world to get his first pot of gold in this world, and then return to the main god space to exchange for a suitable bloodline for himself, and thus reach the peak of the main god space and become the strongest.

But reality taught him a lesson, first the positive side, then the negative side. These two swords of Damocles hanging over his head made Yang Yun understand that the waters of this world are very deep, terrifyingly deep... And the reality that the first layout ended in failure made him realize how capable he was.

And when Yang Yun finally got a supporting role after great efforts, the performances of Chu Xuan and Zhang Jie made him realize once again that his teammates can think, make corresponding judgments, and perform actions that are "inconsistent with the original work" again and again... These characters who were previously just characters in the book are not NPCs who can only operate according to inherent rules, but real living people.

The unseen world of The Mummy made Yang Yun realize that nothing is immutable. The "original works" and "settings" he saw before entering the main god space were like the original plots of the world that the Zhongzhou team was supposed to experience. They could only be used as references and not blindly followed.

Even though he was familiar with the plot, and even though he was actually a so-called "second-time player", Yang Yun still had a bumpy journey along the way. It really can't be said that it was easy... - But maybe I am just such a person. After all, destiny has never been a macro concept, but something real that can be changed.

This is a choice and also a change. Only by fully realizing all the consequences and having the courage to challenge them can we no longer be called "slaves of fate" and change our destiny.

The time came to the eve of entering the world of the Watchers. Watching himself step into the teleportation beam of the Lord God, Yang Yun stretched out his right hand forward, as if holding the throat of fate——

Then, the black and white world once again had bright colors.

……

Yang Yun opened his eyes.

He felt the surge of power coursing through his strong body. This feeling was so strong and clear that he realized without a doubt that this was his own body, full of endless potential and vitality. On his right wrist, he felt the touch of the watch that he had become accustomed to for so long.

The black watch, the Lord’s watch, is the qualification certificate for being a member of the Samsara Team.

——Finally back, he thought.

At the moment this thought flashed through his mind, Yang Yun felt a pair of strong arms pulling him up from the ground. When he opened his eyes again and looked around from his own perspective rather than that of a bystander, he was not surprised to see the "bewitchingly handsome" young man in front of him smiling warmly as always, with a kind of reassuring charm in that smile.

"I'm Zheng Zha. I saw you sitting there for a long time without moving... Excuse me, are you okay?"

Then, just like when they first met, the man named Zheng Zha straightened his clothes and extended his right hand towards Yang Yun.

Facing Zheng Zha's outstretched hand and the familiar lines, Yang Yun laughed: "It's okay, I just feel a little emotional after returning from death... But since you want to do this, let's get to know each other again."

"Nice to meet you, my name is Yang Yun."

As he spoke, Yang Yun tightly grasped Zheng Zha's right hand and looked over his shoulder. He looked at the Zhongzhou team members who seemed to have not seen each other for a long time, and seemed to have just met again after a sleep, and smiled with emotion: "And, long time no see--"

"Partners." (End of Chapter)
