Chapter 839: Divine Paragonʼs Legacy

”So this is where you all have been hiding… I should have done this earlier…” Yuan sighed when he saw these four people deep within his consciousness.

”What do you seek by coming here?” Tian Yang asked him.

”I want…” Yuan turned to look at the Divine Paragon and spoke, ”I want to learn how to infuse my demon sealing aura with my Sword Aura. I want to defeat that Abomination.”

”The Abomination, huh? What a nostalgic name.” The Divine Paragon closed his eyes with a profound smile on his face.

”You want my knowledge; my experience; my memories… but are you prepared to accept my existence?” The Divine Paragon suddenly opened his eyes and stepped forward.

”We may be one and the same, but we are also different people— at least until you accept the fact that weʼre the same.”

”If you are not prepared to accept my existence, then you are not prepared to receive my legacy.”

”...”

Yuan was speechless.

He didnʼt think that heʼd be rejected of his own memories unless he agreed with his own incarnation.

”What will happen if I accept you? Will you completely take over my existence? Will I return to being the ʼDivine Paragonʼ?” Yuan asked him.

The Divine Paragon smiled and said, ”Remember, youʼre not just accepting my memories. If you truly want to see ʼmeʼ, youʼll need to be ʼmeʼ. Of course, that doesnʼt mean youʼll actually become me.”

”And what will happen if I refuse to accept you?” Yuan asked out of curiosity.

”Nothing really happens. You can reject all of our existence for now, but youʼll eventually fully awaken your memories. You cannot run away forever, Yuan. There will be a time when youʼll have to embrace your true identity, and youʼll only make it harder on yourself the longer you delay the inevitable.”

Yuan silently stared at the four figures before him after hearing the Divine Paragonʼs words.

A few moments later, he asked, ”If... What if youʼre not really my memories but memories that were planted inside my mind?”

The Divine Paragon exchanged glances with the others.

”Hahaha!”

All four of them suddenly burst out laughing.

”Do you really believe that? Is this because of what that phoenix said? Even without the Pill of Truth, you should know very well if we are real or fake.” Tian Yang said.

Yuan sighed inwardly. Even without Tian Yang mentioning it, he already knew that these were his true memories.

”Well? Have you come to a conclusion yet?” The Divine Paragon asked him a moment later.

After a moment of silence, Yuan nodded his head.

”Even if I accept you, I will still be myself. I will make sure of that,” he said in a resolute voice.

”Thatʼs what I like to hear.”

A bright smile appeared on the Divine Paragonʼs face as he approached Yuan some more.

Once they were standing right in front of each other, the Divine Paragon extended his hand out for a handshake.

”My legacy... I will leave it in your hands. Donʼt disappoint me.” The Divine Paragon said

”I will try not to.” Yuan nodded before accepting the Divine Paragonʼs handshake.

The Divine Paragon suddenly began glowing, shattering into countless tiny fragments a few seconds later. These tiny fragments were his memories, and they combined with Yuan. 0

Memories began flowing inside Yuanʼs mind— his early memories as the Divine Paragon.

However, these were still just a small fraction of the Divine Paragonʼs memories.

Of course, even one percent of the Divine Paragonʼs memories contained a vast amount of experience and knowledge that could make a mortal into a god-like existence.

Tears suddenly began flowing from Yuanʼs eyes as he reclaimed his earlier memories as the Divine Paragon, such as his childhood and the reason he started hunting demons.

”I see... So this is why you— I started hunting demons.” Yuan mumbled in a low voice as a beautiful young lady suddenly materialized before him inside his head.

”Iʼm sorry... Even though I promised that Iʼd never forget about you.” Yuan said to the young lady that stood before him.

”Itʼs okay. Due to your unique circumstances, I will forgive you— only if you do me a favor.”

”What is it?”

”Say my name,” she said.

A gentle smile appeared on Yuanʼs face as he spoke, ”Ai Rong.”

The young lady showed him a beautiful smile that could make even dead flowers blossom after hearing her name.

”Since you have proven that you truly remember me, I will forgive you. However, more importantly, do you remember your own name?”

Yuan nodded, ”Yes. I was called Tian Chenyu before I became the Divine Paragon.”

”Thatʼs right. But that doesnʼt matter anymore because...”

”Because I am not Tian Chenyu. I am Yuan.” He finished Ai Rongʼs sentence.

The beautiful young lady gently nodded her head before disappearing into the void.

Yuan turned to look at the other three incarnations of him.

”Do I have to accept you guys as well?” He asked them.

”Eventually, but now is not the time. You will need time to fully digest Tian Chenyuʼs memories before you absorb our memories as well. Donʼt bite more than you can chew, or youʼll go insane.” Tian Yang said.

And he continued, ”Also, donʼt rush trying to recall all of your memories. The memories of an immortal that has lived for millions of years is not something to be taken lightly. Even a tiny fragment could be tens of thousands of years of experience, which is more than enough to overwhelm someone with just 18 years of experience.”

”I understand.” Yuan nodded.

He opened his eyes a moment later to find that they were still flowing with tears.

”Are you okay, Young Master?” Feng Yuxiang asked him.

”Yes, I am fine. I just remembered something sad that happened really long ago.”

Feng Yuxiang didnʼt completely understand the meaning behind his words, but she decided to not ask him about it.

”Anyways, letʼs deal with this Abomination and get back to farming more points, shall we?” Yuan stood up and turned to look at the sleeping monster with a calm gaze, his demeanor completely different from just minutes ago..
