Mushroom Man

Chapter 142 Who am I?

Chapter 142 Who am I?
Lonely Mushroom!
After Wu Liang finished speaking, he detonated the mushroom poison without hesitation!

Within the Blood River Ancestor's dantian, billowing black smoke immediately emanated from the Soul-Searching Mushroom and the Energy Mushroom.

The black smoke contaminated all the mushrooms, and the toxins penetrated deep into their bodies.

"what!"

As the mushroom poison erupted, Blood River Ancestor screamed in agony.

He staggered, his breath coming in short gasps.

All the fungi on the body, more or less, have been affected to varying degrees.

The Energy Mushrooms and Soul-Searching Mushrooms that were taken from Wu Liang withered and died before they could even be warmed up due to the mushroom poison.

"thump!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wu Liang dared not be negligent in the slightest and leaped into the River of Oblivion.

He knew very well that the Blood River Ancestor had only recently been infected with the mushroom poison.

The toxins on those two mushrooms would at most cause him a great loss, but not enough to kill him.

This guy, after all, inherited Abbot Shanren's fifth-level cultivation; how could he possibly fall into his hands because of this little mushroom poison?

as predicted……

Blood River Ancestor recovered quickly.

His face twitched, and anger surged within him.

Considering that Blood River Ancestor was once a Mushroom Immortal.

Even when trapped in the Demon Suppression Tower, he still reigns supreme over everyone, manipulating them at will with his 'Formless Will'.

However, now that he has suffered such a great loss from a mere junior, how could he possibly let it go?

At this moment, the Blood River Ancestor finally understood the frustration and anger of Abbot Shanren when he was humiliated in front of a group of juniors.

I swear I will kill you!

After regaining his footing, Blood River Ancestor also leaped into the River of Oblivion and chased after Wu Liang.

The two floated on the surface of the River of Oblivion, rising and falling with the surging waves.

Clusters of light, imbued with memories, continuously emanated from the two of them.

The River of Forgetfulness surged violently like boiling water.

In no time at all, the two were submerged.

Wu Liang and Blood River Ancestor sank straight to the bottom of the river.

The place is dazzling with light, and covered with countless halos of light.

Some of these are the true teachings of the Formless One, while others are miscellaneous fragments of memory.

However, at this moment, neither Wu Liang nor Blood River Ancestor paid any attention to this matter.

Perhaps because of the Tai Sui mushroom, most of Wu Liang's lost memories were trivial and insignificant matters.

Therefore, he was able to remain conscious for a short period of time.

"Gululu..."

After swallowing a mouthful of water, Wu Liang quickly activated the Fetal Qi Mushroom to prevent himself from suffocating underwater.

As we all know, the reason why a fetus can breathe inside the mother's womb, which is full of amniotic fluid, is because of fetal air.

However, Wu Liang's Qi Mushroom has only undergone one transformation, so the Qi he has accumulated is not much.

Once this energy is exhausted, Wu Liang will still drown at the bottom of the river.

At the same time, Wu Liang's eyes flickered, as if he had discovered something.

"That is……"

On the other side of the riverbed, there was a half-open bronze door.

In the dim light, one could see that behind the bronze door, the Cimu River seemed to connect to Zhaodi Town.

Only then did Wu Liang realize the truth.

It turns out that the secret door he had been searching for was not on the so-called first floor at all, but at the bottom of the River of Oblivion on the fourth floor!

No wonder there's such an illogical thing as a river on the fourth level of the Bronze Tower.

Every river has a source, and clearly the source of the River of Forgetfulness is the River of Compassion.

"We stumbled upon a way out by sheer chance."

"It seems the Tai Sui mushroom is still causing trouble."

Wu Liang's spirits lifted, and he attempted to swim towards the bronze door.

But in that instant, he felt the resistance brought by the River of Forgotten Home.

With each step he swam forward, a large amount of his memories were stripped away.

"You brat, don't waste your energy."

"To think you can walk freely at the bottom of the River of Oblivion, your limited memory is undoubtedly wishful thinking."

Blood River Ancestor, through some unknown means, was also able to breathe freely and even speak underwater.

"The ghost lingers."

Wu Liang glanced back at the Blood River Ancestor, who was hot on his heels, his face ashen.

He truly hadn't expected that the Blood River Ancestor would be so reckless and impulsive in his attempt to capture him, and thus also sink to the bottom of the river.

Isn't this guy afraid that all his memories will be completely wiped out?

Meanwhile, Blood River Ancestor, who was following closely behind, seemed to know what he was thinking and couldn't help but sneer.

"You brat, so what if you have a Tai Sui mushroom?"

"Even with my overwhelming power, you still cannot escape my grasp."

"Do you think you'll be safe after jumping into the River of Oblivion?"

"Wrong! Big mistake!"

Blood River Ancestor stared intently at Wu Liang, enduring the oppressive force of the River of Oblivion, and slowly approached him.

"The River of Forgotten Home may indeed make people forget their memories, but it is not a threat to me at all."

"I have survived to this day, and my memory is far richer than yours."

"I'd like to see who will give out first, you or me."

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang's heart sank.

He knew very well that the Blood River Ancestor's words were not an exaggeration. Although he did not know how long the Blood River Ancestor had lived, his memory was certainly far richer than his own.

Even if all his memories from his past and present lives were added together, it would probably only be a drop in the ocean of his total memories.

Now that the two of them are both immersed in the River of Oblivion, with the balance shifting, he will surely be the first to lose his memory.

At the same time, bad things followed one after another.

Now that he is at the bottom of the River of Oblivion, the suppression he is under is even more domineering, which intensifies the consumption of the Tai Sui Mushroom.

Wu Liang sensed something and vaguely felt that the fortune brought by the Tai Sui mushroom was gradually fading away.

If this continues, I'm afraid I'll perish here before I even reach that bronze door.

Of course, even if he swims out of the River of Oblivion, he will not be able to escape from the Blood River Ancestor in a short time.

In this situation, he was still left with only one path: death.

"Cough cough, is it a one-way street to death?"

Wu Liang looked unwilling, and a fierce glint appeared in his eyes.

No, not yet!
He cannot die here; there are still things he has not yet done.

Upon thinking of this, Wu Liang felt a sudden surge of an obsession, the nature of which he couldn't quite define.

Driven by this obsession, he gritted his teeth and strode forward defiantly.

With each step he took down the riverbed, the resistance against him increased.

He forgot a lot of memories, and even with the protection of the Tai Sui mushroom, he still inevitably lost many important memories.

This caused Wu Liang to become dazed and confused, and he was somewhat delirious.

"Hmph, you brat, you don't know your place."

When Blood River Ancestor saw Wu Liang still walking forward, his expression darkened.

At this time, his mushrooms were damaged, and because he was at the bottom of the River of Oblivion, he was subjected to even more domineering suppression. In addition, he was also under the influence of the Grand Duke Jupiter, and his luck was extremely bad.

Under these circumstances, it was difficult for the Blood River Ancestor to move his body of fungi; it was already quite an achievement that he could walk on the riverbed.

If this boy continues to venture deeper into the River of Oblivion, he will have to waste a lot of energy and lose a lot of his memories in order to capture him.

This is undoubtedly a losing proposition...

Meanwhile, Wu Liang, as he ventured deeper into the River of Oblivion, not only lost his own memories but also had a flood of memories of others entering his mind.

You should know that at the bottom of the River of Oblivion, there are a vast number of fragments of memories.

Previously, Chief Wu was affected by these fragments of memory, and eventually became a madman in a daze.

"who am I?"

"Where do I come from?"

"Where am I going?"

Wu Liang's condition worsened, and he even forgot who he was and why he was there.

A multitude of bloated and chaotic memories intertwined in his mind.

He sometimes thought of himself as a woman, and sometimes as a very old man.

At one point, he even considered himself the Wu clan chief.

All of this was due to the fragments of memories flooding into his mind.

However, no matter how confused and disoriented he was, he was still driven by the obsession in his heart to head towards that path of survival.

Strangely, Wu Liang never knew what this obsession was.

He didn't want to die, but that wasn't enough to create such a strong obsession.

Previously, when Wu Liang was on the fifth floor reflecting the dust in his heart, he also revealed that he had a very strong obsession.

But what exactly is this obsession?

Why is it that even Wu Liang himself was completely unaware of this?

Gradually, Wu Liang's pace slowed down, and the fetal energy accumulated by the fetal energy mushroom was completely exhausted.

He was struggling to breathe, and his life was rapidly slipping away.

Upon seeing this, the Blood River Ancestor sneered repeatedly, already prepared to collect the corpse.

This child possesses a top-grade dantian, making him perfectly suited for use as a raw material to refine blood-path mushrooms.

At the same time, the invisible and intangible Tai Sui above Wu Liang's fortune suddenly exploded!

Clearly, the good fortune brought by the Tai Sui mushroom has come to an end.

However, the sudden explosion of the Tai Sui mushroom caused Wu Liang's fortunes to surge like oil being poured on a raging fire, giving him a brief resurgence and propelling him to new heights.

As luck would have it, at that very moment a halo of light entered Wu Liang's body.

And this so-called halo is also a fragment of memory.

However, this fragment of memory is unusual!

It turned out to be the memory that Wu Liang had lost in order to retrieve the dazzling halo!
And this memory contains the source of Wu Liang's obsession.

"I remembered..."

In a daze, Wu Liang, who had forgotten who he was, had a scene appear in his mind.

Skyscrapers, steel jungles.

People come and go, and cars and horses move about.

The family of three, laughing and arguing, living in harmony and happiness.

In this situation, an outsider might be completely baffled.

However, Wu Liang's spirits lifted upon seeing this scene.

what is that?
That's his home...

Everyone has something they can't let go of in their heart.

What Wu Liang can't let go of the most is his family from his previous life.

Wu Liang's life in his previous life was not pleasant; in fact, it could be described as bumpy.

Everyone is like an ox or a horse, struggling to make a living and bearing suffocating pressure.
