Atop the Blood Pine Tree, Chu Xisheng was unaware of the many changes occurring outside the Time Secret Realm, yet he felt as if he were nearly bursting.
An unknown force tugged at his limbs and squeezed his body.
Chu Xisheng had already deployed the subbody of the Divine Illusion Sword, only to find it slightly eased the pressure he felt.
At the same time, he had to strive to maintain his movements and face various inner demons.
Around Chu Xisheng, countless figures, both unfamiliar and familiar, materialized.
The familiar figures were those he knew, while the unfamiliar ones stemmed from memories buried deep in his mind from before he was buried alive, never recalled since.
These included his deceased parents, Chu Yunyun, Iron Madman, the Prefectural Governor, Chu Rulai, Chu Ming, and even the reigning Emperor.
All these people were watching him coldly.
"You ruined me. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have died; my Fourth Grade promotion ceremony wouldn't have failed."
