章節 3: C3
• {Year : 5.2} •
A month passed by ever since Lin Shen went into a coma. The parents had been visiting him everyday, but they looked like they had aged by ten years making the people who knew them saddened. The nurses and doctors who had known those frequent visitors were also saddened when they found out the reason.
Everyday, Lin Shen wouldn't go throughout the day without a convulsion to the point where the nurses taking care of him, used to it.
Lin Shen surprisingly didn't need any help with breathing as he had began to breath by himself when he went into comatose state. But he still didn't respond to any outside activities as his body remained motionless.
Since he remained motionless, they had to help feed him, clean him, and most importantly, taking him outside during the day. Patients who remained in hospitals for their reasons would often see him outside, remained in comatose state. It was like their heart ached when they saw him, pitying him and his parents.
The nurses would most particularly pay attention to him most of the time, as they had watched over him for awhile.
...
In a empty space stood a little bloodied body that was slowly healing, this was Lin Shen. He breathed as he looked at the last gray particle. 'It must've been a year...'
The last particle moved towards him, very slowly compared to the past 9,999,999 gray particles. He had counted every particles and what they had done. Shen closed his eyes in preparation. Finally making contact, the gray particle disappeared strangely. 'Eh?'
Lin Shen opened his eyes and was met with something huge. He didn't dare to look up when he felt its terrifying pressure. 'What the f*ck?!'
He felt his will weakening in front of this huge thing. Thankfully, after a day, it disappeared. However, he didn't move yet since nothing notified him of the end of test.
[First Test Completed! : 100% Completion Rate, never budged a single bit! An astounding achievement!]
With that, he was suddenly rejuvenated, his body healed and his mentality restored. 'So I get healed whenever the test ends... that's good.'
Had he not been given any time to heal before the second test, the former Heavenly Emperor was sure he would've failed it.
"Congratulations on passing the first test. Normally, people of my level would only get 85% completion rate. Surprisingly, you achieved 100%, so I rewarded you by healing you." The sharp voice came back, slightly tinted with joy when it spoke of his completion rate. "Anyways, here starts the second test, good luck!"
[Second Test : Walk. Always walk in a direction, never stop! Don't even pause for a slightest bit until those flying things fully disappears.]
'...' Lin Shen stared at in front of them, countless floating, shining, and colorful orbs. He sighed and began to walk in a direction.
But the moment he began walking, he was astounded to find himself so fast that he even felt 'wind' heavily brushing against him.
'Sure enough! I received benefits from that first test!'
His body was considerably strengthened by far, a step equals to a mile to the current him. His legs were small, so when he grows up he would be able to go further than a mile in a single step.
Suddenly, a colorful orb floated in front of him and a number appeared.
[5]
[4]
It began to go down, as if counting down.
[3]
Lin Shen was frightened when he was struck with a possible idea. 'An explosive ball?! Like from that movie!'
[2]
'F*ck it! I'll keep moving no matter what!' The former Heavenly Emperor squinted his eyes, prepared for an explosion and ran as he held his arms up, guarding.
[1]
It then made a smoke bomb, confusing him. But when the smoke dispersed he nearly tripped and shouted in anger. "F*ck!"
What appeared was a love-struck heavy man, going towards him. Lin Shen dodged him and ran quickly, he also noticed that this fat man was chasing him...
"Darling! Wait for me!" Out of his mouth came a shrill voice... "Wait for my love of my meaty rod!"
'I want to curse my future master already...' Lin Shen cried internally, but didn't dare to say it aloud in case that the being was watching. He really wanted to puke, but... that'd be disgusting while running.
...
"Eh?" A beautiful nurse exclaimed when she saw a tear coming out of the cute boy's right eye with a scrunched face.
Her heart clenched when she thought that he must be crying because he wanted to see his parents.
She approached and cleaned the tear off his cute and soft cheek. "Don't worry! You'll make it!"
Had he known what she thought, Lin Shen would've fainted out of embarrassment. He was crying because he was suffering in indignity.
• {Year : 5.3} •
Another month passed by as Lin Shen's lifeless body silently laid in the hospital bed. Ever since his first tear back then, he never convulsed or twitched so they removed his restraints two days afterward.
The parents were glad to see a process like that, at least they wouldn't need to worry about that but then another issue came. His cute face would sometime adorably scrunch in either helplessness or anger. This confused them greatly as they wanted to know why he would feel helpless or angry.
The two parents who looked slightly older than age sat beside the little boy's bed. They sighed as they looked through the pictures of Lin Shen at younger age.
At that moment, the same doctor back then, came in the room. He noticed the two people and nodded in greeting. "Hello."
"Mmn." Lin Mama just grunted in acknowledgement, with Lin Papa nodding. The doctor didn't mind them and checked the little boy.
He touched here and there, seeing that things were still the same as ever, the doctor wrote something on his paper tablet.
[Day 34 : Still the same. Brain waves higher than normal, with abnormal sweat coming out of his body. Lin Shen will still receive the same treatment as usual.
Treatment : A cold shower and a nursing of beautiful nurses]
"Well, I will be going." The doctor informed as he exited. The parents just continued to look through the pictures.
...
Panting, the former Heavenly Emperor stretched his small legs as he ran away from countless different people, beasts, monsters, and things chasing him from behind.
Few of them would make people puke in disgust, while most of them would make people pause and fall in love with a projection that would disappear.
Several minutes later, the last colorful orb came in front of Lin Shen as all of false yet realistic projections disappeared behind. 'Th-this is the last one.'
He was so tired that his mind was even going numb. The colorful orb slowly changed instead of a numeric countdown. Slowly but surely, its shape became big and bigger. Lin Shen felt this was familiar...
'Wait, isn't that the same huge thing from back then?!' Lin Shen realized and paled when the same terrifying pressure came upon him. He nearly buckled his knees as he had already gone numb. At this point, he just flailed his arms and drooled out spit, not giving up as his little legs took a step and another.
Five minutes went by, a hour went by, and finally, a day passed by when the huge thing disappeared without a trace. Lin Shen was barely walking. His legs trembled, his whole upper body looked like it would fall off.
[Second Test Completed! : 78% Completion Rate! Walked, ran, in the end, barely walked till the very end!]
This time, his body was not rejuvenated as he had expected. Lin Shen could only smile forcedly. 'Looks like I won't pass the third test...'
He then fell on a flat surface as he panted heavily. Shen began to use a breath technique from his past lives, Rejuvenation Breathing Technique.
On cue, the sharp voice came. "Congratulations on passing the second test. Though you did not receive 100% completion rate, this was expected as you had never met people of my level. Yes, at the end, that terrifying pressure was of at the level of myself."
'F*ck. Even as the strongest and longest Heavenly Emperor, I have never met anyone with such pressure.' Lin Shen felt like a frog in well, knowing close to nothing of them. 'At least one of them is go- right, the third test.'
The former Heavenly Emperor felt like crying at his lost of a exciting adventure when the sharp voice added. "Oh, don't worry about the third test. It won't be excruciating difficult like the past two tests."
'Eh?' Lin Shen perked up as his breathing became normal and he gained his stamina back slowly.
"Well, it all depends on you as usual. Good luck!" The sharp voice faded out. "How much you benefit from this third test depends on you..."
[Third Test : Obtain enlightenment as much as you can from this stone slab infused with Sword Intent! Should you receive over 85%, you will pass this test.]
A stone slab appeared in front of Lin Shen, startling him momentarily. Written on it was a word carved carefully. 'Sword'
Just by looking at it, Lin Shen could feel a sharp stinging in his eyes. Heck, standing before it, his entire body felt like it was slightly poked by a sword's tip everywhere.
Thought he had cultivated Sword Dao at some point in his past lives, it was nowhere near to this stone slab infused with sword intent. Lin Shen approached it closer and sat in front. His soul was slowly tearing up since he got too close to it.
But to the former Heavenly Emperor who had a wide variety of knowledge, he easily found a way to ensure that his soul wouldn't completely disperse and die.
He silently stared at the sword intent-carved word.
[Sword]
Unknowingly, he went into a peaceful and silent enlightenment as his soul slowly cracked and reconnected, but the cracks were slowly spreading.
...
Few days passed by.
The parents, as usual, walked to the hospital that held their son hostage. Lin Mama and Lin Papa had already gotten used to the depression, even feeling numb from it.
"Ah, hello!" The receptionist bowed slightly, knowing those frequent visitors. She also pitied them. "The same room as usual."
She informed them. The parents just nodded and went their way when suddenly a crowd of doctors and nurses sped towards their son's room quickly. Frantic, both of them widened their eyes, fearing the worst. They just froze on spot, not knowing what to do as they let them do whatever they were doing.
The group shouted often, but most of them were out of surprise and slight joy. Feeling the slight joy, both of them snapped out of it and went to the nearest doctor. "What happened?!"
The female doctor, seeing they were the parents of Lin Shen, exclaimed. "We had a movement and briefly, his consciousness was back for awhile. He moved for few minutes, but went back into coma."
"What!" Both of the parents were surprised and joy filled their being. "So that means he'll be coming back soon, right?!"
"Yes, possibly! But don't hope for the best, we haven't determined it." The female doctor calmed them, not wanting them to hope for the best only to find it crushed. The parents understood but still couldn't help but hope for the best.
The male doctor who had paid for Lin Shen's hospital bills, approached with a slight smile. "No need! It's been confirmed, Lin Shen will return within a month."
"...!" All of them were happy and grinned madly. The parents forced their way in and held their son's hands, blabbering excitedly.
• {Year : 5.4} •
[Third Test Completed! : 89% Completion Rate! An astonishing achievement, for even people of your new master would at most get 50% completion rate!]
"...Hahahahahaha!" The sharp voice laughed loudly with joy. The very space shook in response with the little boy rolling around, weak. "I got a new disciple that has an amazing potential even than mine!"
'Alright, we get it! So can you stop laughing?!' Lin Shen really wanted to shout but he refused to, in fear of puking. If he puked in front of a superior being... Oh the embarrassment he would get!
The sharp voice seemed to know his small ordeal and promptly stopped as it continued to speak. "Sorry about that, my little disciple. This is the first time I've seen anyone obtain over 45% completion rate from this stone slab."
"In truth, this was made by me with merely Sword Intent. I had casually did it and sent it somewhere random, but I would get notified whenever one obtained a slightest completion rate from it." It elaborated. "Other than you, who has 89% completion rate, there is this female Dao cultivator who obtained 45% completion rate from this stone slab."
The sharp voice seemed to have chuckled as it continued. "This female Dao cultivator was actually a Heavenly Emperor of her universe, but she already died and reincarnated in another universe. Of course, she was not in the same situation as you are in. She was reincarnated without any memories at all and left with only her peerless talent."
"Currently though, she's an Sword cultivator now, since my stone slab also gifts people a slight wist of Sword Intent comprehension." The sharp voice then finished with the next one.
"Now, you are considered as my first and last disciple ever. I shall allow you to return, but be prepared. Because since you were taken in, four months has passed by with you unconscious state."
Lin Shen was astounded as he processed the information, but hearing the last part... he wanted to curse this superior being, couldn't it just make it as if no time passed by when his consciousness taken?!
