A Single Person's Infinite Wonderful Life

Chapter 1. Clearing the Field

Seeing this, Li Wei and Lisa both stepped back a distance. Li Wei took out a box of potato chips from his mind space and handed it to Lisa.

Lisa, meanwhile, pulled out a can of Coke from somewhere and tossed it to Levi.

The two of them watched the scene as if it were a spectacle.

"Velite, go for it! Beat him up!" Lisa shouted, cupping her hands into a megaphone shape.

Seeing this, Li Wei almost spat out his cola. It was clear how much Judal was disliked by Lisa before.

Vilit glanced at Lisa, who was hovering in mid-air, and looked at Judal with disdain, saying, "You are a heartless bastard. Now, let us walk the last leg of our lives together. This will be your best grave. No one can escape this ship."

Li Wei said from the side, "Lisa, I need to go out for a bit. There's a big guy waiting for us down there. If we don't stop him, the bottom of the Little Garden boat will probably be blasted open."

Lisa asked with some surprise, "Are there still enemies outside?"

Li Wei handed the crystal to her and said, "Villie didn't come alone; she has other reinforcements. As long as you have this, your safety won't be a problem. I'll be right back."

What Li Wei perceived was far more exciting than in the original story. It seems that Vilit brought her whole family with her this time. In his perception, there were many individuals resembling barbarians beneath the sea surface, but these strange individuals all possessed the characteristics of marine life, unlike the barbarians who resembled adult insects.

This should be an artificial barbarian army created by Vilit. After all, the power of the Hundred Armor Crystal and the barbarians comes from the same source. With her technology, there is no technological barrier to creating an artificial barbarian army.

Li Wei teleported to the outside of the ship and found himself at sea. The ocean was his most hated environment. Despite his ability to alter the landscape, Li Wei still had a psychological weakness: thalassophobia.

Although Li Wei wasn't as afraid of the ocean as before, especially at night, he felt a nauseous urge to touch something like a caterpillar with his bare hands, which gave him goosebumps all over.

In addition, the artificial barbarians created by Vilit were so badly designed that they were really awful, which made it hard for him, whose feet were not on the ground, to accept.

"That's why I hate this environment. Let's make this place brighter...~." Boundless light burst forth from Li Wei's body, and a large number of light orbs fell downwards, making the entire ocean brighter and clearer. Even ordinary people could see extremely far with their naked eyes.

The sea, which had been turbulent due to the ocean currents, was forcibly calmed down, becoming as still as a lake.

Li Wei could feel the magical power within his body connecting this world.

Qi, infinitely vast and infinitely small, can form the universe above and create all living things on earth. The essence of heaven and earth combines to form humankind. At this moment, Li Wei, because of the external environment he disliked, became unusually genuine.

The more Li Wei cultivated, the more he realized that the so-called Qi was not a physical existence, but a kind of "nothingness" that was closer to a concept. The so-called "existence arises from nothingness" and "the Tao gives birth to, gives birth to, gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things" describes this characteristic of Qi.

The fact that ancient people could recognize such essential things under such rudimentary conditions gave Li Wei a sense of unreality. How to put it? It's a bit like playing Civilization where villagers in a primitive village share controlled nuclear fusion technology with you—a situation rife with flaws.

Li Wei also began to realize that the Qi he used in his cultivation was generated out of thin air, without any foundation or prerequisites. Therefore, the so-called "Dharma-ending Age" he had seen on those forums before was, in his personal experience, unfounded.

Li Wei has conducted extensive deductions on the power of Qi so far, and has even deduced more supernatural abilities based on the "Huangdi Shengjing". There is no limit to this power, which gives him great pleasure in exploration.

Li Weiwei, there should be other Qi cultivators in the real world besides him, but those Qi cultivators should have left Earth and gone to other places.

When Li Wei consulted some ancient books in the real world, he discovered some clues. Some contents of the Tao Te Ching, Guanzi, and Huangdi Neijing should not have appeared in those eras. Therefore, the possibility of "deus ex machina" is quite high. Some contents of those books may not have been written by ordinary humans.

Having read a large number of related ancient books and gained a deeper understanding through analogy, Li Wei's cultivation level has also increased significantly. This further confirmed his view that those ancient works were definitely not the work of people at that time.

The methods he is now using are those he learned from the Tao Te Ching. Although his understanding of the Tao Te Ching is not yet deep enough, this does not prevent Li Wei from using some of its methods.

According to Li Wei, the Tao Te Ching is one of the most powerful extant ancient texts. Although it is written in classical Chinese that ordinary people cannot understand, once you understand its true meaning, you will find that it has already mentioned the essence of the universe.

"To the naked eye, these things seem like remnants that shouldn't exist in the world." Li Wei saw the pile of monsters and demons created by Vilit and wanted to complain. She wondered if Vilit had referenced Lovecraft's Cthulhu series when creating these artificial marine barbarians. The things below made it hard not to associate them with those things.

Faced with the ever-approaching sea monster army, Li Wei unleashed his magic, and an invisible shockwave spread downwards, instantly obliterating the sea monster army under Vilit's command.

Chapter 4. The Death of Vilit

At this moment, even if the small garden were just a small stick drifting on the lake, it would truly look like that from the air. The people above the small garden also noticed the anomaly; after all, the entire ocean was shimmering with golden light, and such a high intensity of light was enough to attract their attention.

Not only the people in the small garden, but also the satellites in high Earth orbit noticed the anomaly. Half of the Earth's oceans had become bright, a change visible even from outer space, and the satellites faithfully captured this scene.

Li Wei stepped forward, took a deep breath, looked at his masterpiece, raised an eyebrow, snapped his fingers, and the bright ocean dimmed again, and the originally calm sea gradually became turbulent.

Li Weixian felt a sense of inner peace, which helped him break through his previous confusion and his cultivation level improved again. Although the progress was not significant, considering that the cultivation method he practiced was not very efficient, such progress was already quite valuable.

When Levi returned to the cabin, Vilit, with a large hole in her chest, had already collapsed into Judal's arms.

The battle is over. Vilit's strength is quite good. If it were the original Judal, there would have been a possibility of defeat. However, Judal has been modified by Li Wei, and his strength is no longer what it used to be. Therefore, the outcome was decided after only a few rounds of fighting.

Because of her modifications, Vilit's vitality is stronger than that of ordinary people. Even with a large hole in her chest and blood flowing everywhere, she can still endure for another two or three minutes.

Judar said, "Nobody wanted things to come to this. Do you regret it?"

Vilit laughed and said, "Regret is natural. This is my failure, and it will be my last. If I had been better prepared, I might have been able to kill you. The fact that we haven't heard any noise outside means that my backup plans have already been taken care of by your men."

Judar said, "Unfortunately, we are no longer who we used to be. I can only say that I am truly sorry to you. However, we have both accepted our punishment."

The current Judar is merely a Judar in disguise, using Levi's thought process; the real Judar has already lost his soul, which is why he said those words.

“It’s unbelievable that you’ll be punished.” Vilit said with a sarcastic expression.

Judar didn't say anything, because Lisa was present, and he couldn't possibly reveal the real secret. After all, this was something that couldn't be said even if this body was ruined.

Vilit sighed, clasped her hands over the hole in her chest, closed her eyes, and said, "You can do whatever you want with my body. Chop it up and feed it to the dogs or use it for experiments, it's up to you. The biggest mistake I ever made was meeting you."

Vilit felt her thoughts racing and she felt lighter, which reminded her of a past research project she had undertaken to determine whether the soul existed.

Vilit felt that he was seeing things, or that he was hallucinating because of death. He saw a large number of puppet strings on Judar's body. In the blink of an eye, those strange puppet strings disappeared without a trace.

Vilit completely lost consciousness. At this moment, Li Wei formed a Taoist mudra with his hands and began to quietly chant the "Rebirth Mantra".

Lisa felt a peculiar energy swirling within the cabin, an energy that was quite peculiar and gave off an indescribable warmth. Although she couldn't understand the incantation Li Wei was chanting, she could sense that it was a special blessing incantation, and one that was truly effective.

Levi felt some sympathy for the poor woman, Violet, which is why he used the Rebirth Curse to protect her soul, allowing her a fresh start and preventing her from suffering another tragedy with resentment in her life.

Judar picked up Vilit's body and walked out of the cabin.

Lisa called out to Judal, "Brother, where are you going now? Are you really going to chop up the corpse and feed it to the dogs?"

Judar turned around, a complicated expression on his face, and said, "Am I really that vicious?"

Lisa nodded without giving her any face.

Judar lifted the slightly slipped body a little higher and said, "What I owe her is something I can never repay. Now, the only thing I can do is find her a quiet place so she can rest in peace. She will sleep for a very, very long time..."

Lisa said, "If you had been aware of this before, would things have escalated to this point? And did you ever truly love her?"

This is a rather pointed question. If it were the original Judah, it would be difficult to answer, because the real Judah was an ambitious person who would sacrifice everything for his goals. If it were the real Judah, he would probably say, "Never."

But now, the one controlling this body is Li Wei, and Li Wei doesn't want to cause Lisa too much psychological harm.

Judar was silent for a moment, then said, "If I said, 'Love,' would you believe me?"

Lisa raised an eyebrow. This answer was unexpected. She hadn't expected that the ruthless schemer had actually developed genuine feelings for Vilit. But this also made her even more confused. If that was the case, then why did she later make Vilit take the blame and even try to kill her to silence her?

Judar said, "How could you, a child, understand adult matters? This is the most regrettable thing I've ever done in my life, without a doubt. Now that it's all over, I won't let anyone bother her anymore."

Watching Judal carry the body out of the cabin, Lisa said to Levi beside her, "I think he's gone mad. He's contradicting himself. I just can't believe him."

Li Wei laughed and said, "Who knows for sure? Anyway, if he says it's true, then I'll take it as true."

Chapter 1. Interlude and End

Li Wei stuffed the last potato chip from the bag into his mouth and finished the cola.

Lisa imitated Levi, chugging the cola in big gulps. The cola bottle was a bit too big for her petite frame. After finishing the cola, she threw the empty bottle forward, where it turned into powder.

Having completed her decoy mission, Lisa returned to the top of her usual sleeping power source, ready to go back to sleep.

The enormous Little Garden cannot possibly support its massive energy consumption using only nuclear power. Although Valslan claims that the Little Garden is purely nuclear-powered, in reality, a significant portion of the ship's energy supply comes from Lisa.

In a sense, she is like a miniature "Cosmic Cube," capable of continuously providing energy to the outside world. Although this energy supply is more like a thin stream rather than a large floodgate like the Cosmic Cube, the amount of energy she can provide is still enormous for humanity as we know it.

Li Wei said, "Do you like this kind of life? Staying here as a human battery, is this what you want?"

Lisa asked, "But the outside world is also quite boring for me. Whether it's here or outside, it's all so dull. In that case, staying here as a human battery can at least help others."

Lisa is very open-minded about her current situation, or rather, she is content with her current status. As the third daughter of the Harvey family, she has had everything that ordinary people crave since birth. In addition, she does not have the same huge ambition as Judal, so her desire for the outside world is very low.

Moreover, after witnessing her elder brother Judar's ambition, she realized that the outside world was not as wonderful as she had imagined. Staying here as a homebody was a form of resistance.

Lisa considers herself not good at political maneuvering, but even her sister Kureya is kept in the dark by her elder brother. If she leaves here, who knows how she might be used? So staying here as a human battery is the best solution for her.

Li Wei said, "It's understandable to lie to others, but it's meaningless to lie to yourself. Do you really like staying here?"

Lisa clenched her fists. She had asked herself this question before, but she chose to avoid it. As long as she didn't think about it, she wouldn't have any worries. But from time to time, the question would surface in her mind.

“If I had a choice, I wouldn’t want to choose this either, but tell me, someone as dangerous as me, staying outside, would either endanger others or be used by those with ulterior motives. How am I supposed to choose?!” Lisa’s voice unconsciously rose.

Li Wei gently thumped his chest and said, "Of course, you should choose the path you won't regret. Right now, you regret it. But you still have another chance to choose."

Lisa possesses a trump card that no one else has, so for her, choices are not limited to just one. As long as she is willing, she can have another chance to choose. After all, power, authority, and wealth are a person's foundation, and for Lisa, who possesses all of these, life is a single-choice question for ordinary people, but for Lisa, it is a full-choice question where she can choose anything.

“I…I think I’d better stay here…” Lisa’s voice trailed off.

Li Wei sighed inwardly at Lisa's choice, but it was her own choice, and she still had a choice. No matter when she came out, there would always be a place for her in the outside world.

Li Wei said nothing, turned around, and walked towards the exit of the cabin.

Watching Li Wei's retreating figure, Lisa reached out her hand, wanting to say something, but the words remained unspoken, and she could only watch Li Wei leave.

Just when Lisa thought Levi was about to leave, Levi stopped and said, "No matter when you make your choice, there will be someone waiting for you outside. Kureya is very worried about you."

Upon hearing Li Wei mention this name, Lisa's defenses crumbled instantly, but the psychological trauma from before still made it difficult for her to make a decision.

··· ·Requesting flowers···· ·

Lisa remained silent until Li Wei left.

After leaving, Li Wei went to the central command room in the small garden, where Kureya was still waiting for him.

Inside the central command room, only the Kureya people remained.

Seeing Li Wei, Kureya breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I just saw Judal carrying Velite's body away through the surveillance footage. What happened?"
