Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest-Chapter 1125 True Proof (1)

Returning once again to the Mysterious Origin Dark Immortal Mansion, Wang Chen had not even had the chance to wash off the dust when Bai Susu grabbed him: "How many Spirit Stones did you bring back this time?"

Her demeanor was that of a domineering housewife.

Wang Chen found it both laughable and exasperating, so he simply handed over the Sumeru Ring: "It’s all in here."

This time, he had been running around outside for three months, setting foot in dozens of Immortal Cities and unlocking over a hundred Ancient Sealed Jades.

The gains were substantial.

And then, he exchanged all the earnings from gambling on jades for Spirit Stones.

Bai Susu took the Sumeru Ring, swept it with her Divine Sense, and immediately broke into a grin, "Not bad, you’ve worked hard."

The gracious Madam Bai leaned in and planted a kiss on Wang Chen’s face: "This is your reward!"

Wang Chen was speechless.

"My lady!"

Yuanyuan, following beside them, boasted, "All these Spirit Stones were earned by me for the master!"

Her tone was filled with pride.

Truly speaking, the treasure hunting expedition over the past three months was even harsher on her than on Wang Chen.

Because appraising treasures does consume energy.

"Yuanyuan is the best!"

Bai Susu smiled and lifted her up, giving her a kiss as well: "It’s not in vain that my lady cherishes you."

Yuanyuan buried her head into Bai Susu’s chest, her eyes curved in complete contentment.

"Let’s go."

Bai Susu, eager to make use of the Spirit Stones, rushed into the Fleeting Moment Tower with Yuanyuan in her arms.

"My lord..."

At this moment, Su Ziling came over, her eyes filled with tender love as she gazed at Wang Chen.

Wang Chen smiled slightly and wrapped his arm around her slender waist: "Join me in the bath."

In the days that followed, Bai Susu entered seclusion in the Fleeting Moment Tower, while Wang Chen focused intently on studying the Mysterious Nascent Soul Tome.

Preparing for True Proof.

True Proof is a process necessary for any Nascent Soul True Immortal aiming to achieve Divinity Transformation and beyond.

To sever worldly ties, resolve karma, eliminate inner conflicts, to verify true nature!

But Wang Chen encountered difficulties at this step.

He was a transmigrator; his original life’s karma was resolved, but he couldn’t sever the memories of his true self, so how could the karmic ties and consequences from his past life possibly be resolved?

Unless he transmigrated back to his original world!

While Wang Chen delved into the Mysterious Nascent Soul Tome, he could not grasp its essence and unknowingly fell into an unprecedented obstacle.

Days passed, and he fruitlessly wasted time in the Mysterious Origin Dark Immortal Mansion, with no progress in his Cultivation Realm.

Not only that, the deepest memories in his heart, those from his previous life, began surfacing continually in Wang Chen’s mind, becoming extremely vivid one by one.

Without his own awareness, these memories even started showing signs of transforming into inner demons!

However, just as the inner demons were about to emerge, the Ancient Taoist Stele nestled in Wang Chen’s Sea of Consciousness suddenly emitted billions of Radiance, instantly illuminating his Divine Soul.

[Heavenly Merit -100000], [Heavenly Merit -100000], [Heavenly Merit -100000]...

At the same time, Wang Chen’s Heavenly Merit points were being reduced at a staggering rate, extinguishing a hundred thousand in a breath!

His consciousness plunged into boundless chaos.

Not knowing how much time had passed, Wang Chen suddenly roused, instinctively sensing imminent danger.

He unconsciously tilted his head, and a cold breeze whisked past his forehead.

Wang Chen suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked up to see a bald middle-aged man shouting at him, "Wang Chen, if you don’t want to study, get out and don’t disturb the other students!"

Several specks of saliva splattered onto Wang Chen’s face.

Wang Chen glanced around and saw that the classroom full of teenagers were staring at him, some with contempt, some with pity, some with mockery, and some with schadenfreude.

He wiped his face expressionlessly and then stood up to say, "Teacher Zhang, I’m sorry, I’ll leave."

Saying this, Wang Chen, under the gaze of various strange eyes, left the classroom.

"Don’t follow his example. Such useless sludge who can’t stick to the wall, when they go out into society, they are also society’s scum!"

Wang Chen stepped onto the corridor and could still clearly hear the voices emanating from inside the classroom.

Wang Chen took a deep breath and walked all the way to the bathroom at the end of the corridor.

He turned on the faucet above the washbasin, cupped the tap water with his hands, and splashed it vigorously on his face several times.

Under the stimulation of the cold water, Wang Chen’s mind became incredibly clear.

At this moment, he looked at the mirror hanging above the washbasin.

In the mirror was a face of an ordinary teenager who hadn’t fully shed his youthful appearance.

Wang Chen knew that this was his sixteen-year-old self!

Was it an illusion? Or a trick of the inner demon?

Wang Chen tried to call up the Cultivation Panel, but there was no response.

Not only that, but his Cultivation Level, along with all his equipped treasures, including the Cangqing Ring, had vanished.

He was not only thoroughly reverted to his original form, but he had also returned to his sixteen-year-old self in his previous life!

Wang Chen’s memory had never been as vivid as this.

After finishing middle school exams last year, with the help of his uncle working in the provincial capital, Wang Chen came to the provincial No. 5 Middle School as a visiting student. It was now the second semester of his first academic year, and there was one month left before the final exam.

Since he had stayed up all night playing at an internet cafe last night, he was drowsy in class today and even fell asleep during the math class, which resulted in being shamed and expelled by "Yama Zhang."

It was an embarrassing incident from Wang Chen’s high school days that he found hard to speak of!

Unexpectedly, he had relived it all over again.

However, this time Wang Chen did not talk back to Yama Zhang, thus avoiding more insults.

After thinking it through, Wang Chen walked down the stairs to the ground floor, went through the familiar route to the school’s staff dormitory area, and then climbed over a small gate to sneak out of the school.

Wang Chen had climbed over this small gate hundreds of times before.

Soon, he entered an internet cafe located deep in an alley near the school.

"Wang Chen, you skipped class again, huh!"

The internet cafe manager at the front desk knew Wang Chen and said with a smile, "Aren’t you afraid that Yama Zhang will flay you and deep fry you in oil?"

This internet cafe manager was originally a student at the No. 5 Middle School and had dropped out to become a manager, so he shared a common language with Wang Chen and other juniors who sneaked out to surf the internet.

"Don’t mention it."

Wang Chen said indifferently, "Just got kicked out by Yama Zhang, set me up with a computer, and give me a cigarette too."

"Okay!"

The manager operated the keyboard for a bit, then took out a pack of cigarettes and handed Wang Chen one.

He even proactively offered a lighter, asking in confusion, "Don’t you not smoke?"

"I smoke occasionally."

Wang Chen lit up, took a deep drag, and choked so bad he felt like dying!

Indeed, he wasn’t a smoker; the reason he asked for a cigarette was to verify whether he was in a dream or reality.

When Wang Chen sat down in front of the computer, looking at the filthy keyboard and mouse, as well as the 32-inch large monitor, and after gulping down a can of chilled cola...

Only then did he confirm that he had indeed returned to his sixteen-year-old self in his previous life!

All memories retained, Cultivation entirely lost, as if everything had been reset.
