Chapter 383: Chapter 311 Brothers

He was reborn once again.

He plunged into deep thought.

"The very last moment Lin Xing had been Mr. Nice Guy, the next moment he murdered his parents, slaughtering the world with unparalleled power."

"How exactly can he be stopped?"

Scenes of Lin Xing’s father teaching him gradually emerged in his mind.

"Could it be that Lin Xing’s father, far from being the butcher behind the massacres, has always been trying to stop Lin Xing? To teach him to be a good person?"

"Are the ruthless methods of silencing people also to avoid provoking Lin Xing?"

"Could it be that Lin Xing’s father was secretly preventing the apocalypse?"

At that moment, he really wanted a candid conversation with Lin Xing’s father, and he chose to do so, but all that awaited him was a merciless erasure.

"There’s no way to communicate, every time Lin Xing’s special trait is mentioned, an immediate attack ensues, with not the slightest margin for dialogue, like a machine..."

Remembering the particular inner workings of Lin Xing’s father, he thought to himself, "Maybe he really is a machine, but who set it up here?"

With no way to communicate with Lin Xing’s parents, he decided to focus his attention back on Lin Xing.

"If I, like Lin Xing’s father, spend nearly a decade continuously guiding Lin Xing towards the path of goodness and justice, could the massacres be prevented?"

The young man did not know whether it would work, but he decided to give it a try, for he had plenty of opportunities.

First, he used the memories of many lifetimes to amass a great wealth.

Then he used his familiarity with Lin Xing to befriend him again, becoming confidants who shared everything.

In the days that followed, he paved the way with money and, combined with his years of life experience, continued to guide Lin Xing towards becoming a better person.

As a result, Lin Xing in this life was kinder, more just, and less like a demon who would massacre, than in any previous lifetime.

Even in a world that had been peaceful for a century and rarely saw violent homicides, the young man was confident that Lin Xing’s righteousness and kindness ranked in the top one-thousandth or even one ten-thousandth globally.

However, just as Lin Xing was in junior high school, after his second triggering of time reversal, a homicide occurred in Xia Country.

Watching Lin Xing’s indignant manner, the young man suddenly had a new idea.

"Perhaps I can make Lin Xing a hero."

"Not just a good person or a kind person, but a hero who is willing to use his abilities to stop evil."

"I remember during Lin Xing’s high school years, another homicide occurred in Xia Country, right? If Lin Xing could perform a courageous act and prevent the murder, perhaps the guidance would be even more effective."

So the young man started consciously implanting the concept of acting bravely in the face of justice and upholding righteousness into the mind of Lin Xing, who was still in junior high.

He also tried to convince Lin Xing to see his superpower as a sign from heaven, a thought that possessing such power meant he should act heroically and righteously.

For the young man with memories of many lifetimes, implanting this idea in a middle schooler’s mind was not difficult.

The time quickly approached the eve of the murder case.

Under the guise of a holiday trip, the young man took Lin Xing to the area where the homicide would occur.

"I remember it being around here..."

But as he tried to lead Lin Xing to prevent the murder, a strange sensation suddenly enveloped Lin Xing.

He asked in confusion, "Lin Xing? What’s wrong?"

"Do you feel a sense of familiarity here?"

"Is something calling you?"

His heart stirred, feeling that his explorations through the lifetimes might finally be leading to a new discovery.

He let Lin Xing follow the feeling through the alleys, eventually arriving in front of a bustling apartment entrance.

Looking at Lin Xing staring intently at the apartment door, he curiously said, "Is this the place?"

Lin Xing nodded, but before he could speak, the door burst open, and a person appeared out of thin air behind it.

Upon seeing the newcomer’s face, the young man realized this was the murderer from the homicide.

But when he witnessed how the figure could take the lives of several passersby with a wave of his hand, as well as his extraordinary power and speed, he understood he could not stop him on his own.

"Lin Xing!"

Without needing his call, the righteous Lin Xing charged forward, trying to stop the killer’s continued rampage.

However, the disparity in strength made it difficult for him to confront the killer directly.

Ultimately, under the young man’s watch, both of them passed through the door and disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Afterward, upon reflection, the young man began to grasp the context of events.

"Lin Xing must have realized that he couldn’t compete with the killer and, even after experiencing many deaths and triggering time reversals multiple times, he eventually chose to lead the killer away."

"But what exactly was that door?"

"Why did they disappear?"

"Where on earth did they go?"

"That man also possessed extraordinary powers. What was his relationship with Lin Xing?"

The young man knew nothing about this. He tried to track down Lin Xing’s whereabouts but was never able to find him. Even Lin Xing’s parents had vanished without a trace, disappearing to parts unknown.

And in the process of searching for Lin Xing, in the four homicide cases that occurred one after the other since his rebirth that year, the criminals all displayed superhuman physical abilities.

"To think that four homicide cases occurred in just seven short years. Looking back... this was already beyond the realm of normalcy."

"And each criminal possessed strength far beyond that of ordinary people..."

The young man felt he might have discovered an important clue. Regrettably, in this lifetime, there was little left that he could do.

While he was searching for Lin Xing and awaiting the day of doom, pondering whether the end would come after Lin Xing’s disappearance,

Lin Xing unexpectedly reappeared two years after he went missing.

It was only through the other’s account that the young man learned Lin Xing had spent those two years in another world—a world full of slaughter, evil, and scum, yet also filled with extraordinary powers like Taoism, martial arts, and Buddhist Law.

He followed Lin Xing to that strange world and discovered that in the two years Lin Xing was missing, he had become a renowned powerhouse.

But when the doomsday of the tenth year arrived, all the experiences didn’t bring any benefits to this world. Instead, they only made Lin Xing more insane, more manic, and even more unstoppable.

When he watched Lin Xing open the gate to the immortals and return to the present world, he knew he had failed to stop Lin Xing once again.

However... although Lin Xing of this life was more deranged and more powerful, the young man wasn’t discouraged in the least. He felt he had finally seen the first light of stopping Lin Xing from slaughtering humankind.

"Lin Xing and his parents are definitely not from this world."

"Such beings with extraordinary powers must have come from that other world."

"To stop them, one must also master the powers of that world."

And so the young man made a decision. He intended to go to that world and grasp powerful enough forces to stop Lin Xing.

To go to that other world, the first method the young man thought of was the homicide cases.

He remembered that shortly after his rebirth, a series of murders had taken place.

So he went alone to the scene of the murders. After trying across multiple lives, he finally found the existence of the gate and entered it, arriving in that other world.

In the perilous other world, he tried again and again, died again and again, but progressed slowly.

Finally, he changed his mind.

"My rebirth ability consumes too much time."

"Compared to efficiency, Lin Xing’s time reversal is better."

Recalling how Lin Xing had grown to the status of a local tyrant in just two years, he decided to bring Lin Xing into the other world.

After reborn once more, he first befriended Lin Xing and seized the opportunity to perform a heroic deed with him, bringing them both to the other world.

The two of them learned, cultivated, struggled to survive, and acted righteously in the other world together.

Through multiple life-and-death battles, they developed a brotherly bond that transcended blood relations.

Or perhaps for the young man, in the process of repeatedly interacting with him, entwining their lives time after time, he had gradually formed a deep brotherly affection for Lin Xing.

This time, they even shared their own abilities with each other.

It wasn’t just Lin Xing who spoke of his time reversal; the young man also revealed his rebirth ability.

And so Lin Xing knew of his repeated attempts to stop his own world-slaughtering rampage.

Lin Xing clapped him on the shoulder, consoling, "This life... it’s been hard on you."

"Next, let’s stop me together."

The two of them, bound by a life-or-death friendship and brotherly affection, fought their way in the other world, not only mastering tremendous power but also speculating more about Lin Xing’s condition.

The young man sighed, "Lin Xing, there are many memories within you."

"Perhaps it is one of those memories that automatically unlocks itself on that day, causing not only a drastic change in your temperament but also bestowing you with unbelievable, formidable power."

Lin Xing nodded, "I feel that the various cultivation methods in this world gradually trigger people’s negative emotions."

"My loss of control could likely be due to the suppression of those suddenly erupting negative emotions."

"If one has a sufficient realm and will to control, to master... perhaps I won’t lose control again."

But this attempt too ended in failure.

Even though he had reached the pinnacle of the Three Transmissions, even though he possessed an incredibly strong will and an almost perfect state of mind, Lin Xing still lost control.

The young man could only keep trying, life after life, to continue saving Lin Xing.

But as he kept trying, he learned more about this other world and gradually encountered more matters related to the Evil Sect.

He slowly began to understand that Lin Xing’s condition was probably related to the so-called evil energy.

Thus, there eventually came a lifetime when the young man, with Lin Xing in tow, found the Evil Sect in the hopes that they could solve Lin Xing’s problem.
