Xianxia + infinite-flow + “reborn” + saving the world + twist after twist + one heroine
Not a brainless story, no System, not a wish-fulfillment novel. Read with caution if that’s not your thing.
I saw through the mortal world’s fleeting pleasures and willingly became a plaything of the gods.
I have witnessed all that is void, and studied Their features.
The prison of reincarnation endures forever,
Until the day we begin again, and all things are erased.
Some cling to one-sided hopes, preferring to be forgotten.
Some live forever, again and again, forgetting their former selves.
Some know that when people gaze up at the sky, the sky is gazing down at them too.
And yet they insist on defying It.
We are fortunate, and we are doomed.
We think ourselves clever, and so become the laughingstock of others.
But through the long ages…
There were some among them,
Who called themselves pure and fled the sea of suffering.
They worshipped the gods and longed for paradise.

Everyone must atone. Everyone loses their way.
We share the same obsession, and walk the same road.
Again and again I search for the true exit, only to return to the starting point time after time.
In the end, I fall into hell, to its very bottom.
Back and forth, over and over…
Eighteen cycles of reincarnation, every layer steeped in sin.
In the mortal world, truth lies everywhere.

When will I remember… my true heart, my beginning, and the path I lost?
…
The insignificance of humanity is plain to see,
And failure is surely why we have come to this.
Victory is elusive; the way ahead is unclear.
The heavens whisper, and the earth begins to tremble.
…
Brother… where are you?
Toward the sun…
…we go
Finally, there’s no angst in the whole story. It’s all sweetness!!!
