Wang Wei continued his journey on the [Asking Heart Road], further tempering his Dao Heart and state of mind. The following core memory he experienced was during the Qi Luck Trial in the Warring Kingdom World.

The memory was when he watched how millions of innocent people died by poisoning in Bless Wings City. He learned of the cruelty of the world from this experience and how little cultivators valued mortals' lives.

That event also taught him never to be careless and treat things like a game; he learned unexpected things often occur, and he should be prepared for them.

Wang Wei watched these events from a different perspective. And with each memory, he has a better understanding of his mind and self. So, he continued forward.

Next, he relived the day he met Wu Hong at the Academy. Although it was the first time he saw her, she was breathtaking, captivating, mesmerizing, and enchanting. In an instant, he was enamored with her and felt they were destined to be together.

How he felt about her was odd by all accounts. He was a person from Earth and knew love at first sight was superficial. He was a person who wanted to transcend fate and achieve ultimate freedom. So, how could he allow fate to determine his Dao Companion?

However, he did not care. For a man of his intelligence and rationality, he should have been instantly weary of her. But he made the illogical choice and decided to believe her despite how often his mind told him he was wrong.

'I took a leap of faith, and it paid up,' he pondered with a smile as he reviewed the memory of when the two first met. 'Our love story has just begun. As you said, our bond will transcend fate and last until eternity.'

With a reassured mind, he continued forward. The next memory was brief but also vivid–the first time he met Di Tian. Although he only looked at the latter from a distance through a door, he knew this person was extraordinary and might become his greatest obstacle to proving the Dao and achieving eternity.

Wang Wei glanced at Di Tian standing at the entrance door to Xu Shi's Heaven Chosen Poetry Meeting before continuing forward.

Subsequently, Wang Wei saw the scene when he killed Ji Song. He was overwhelmed by anger because someone like Ji Song actually tricked him, which deeply hurt his pride; he was always the one who schemed over others, so he could not control himself once someone did it to him.

"How immature I was back then," he muttered, shaking his head. Then, he continued his journey.

The next memory involved Di Tian again; it was the battle at the Heavenly Abode World. In that fight, Wang Wei experienced his greatest failure since his cultivation journey; that event was a turning point in his life.

He experienced humiliation, pain, and despair; he had never come so close to death in his life. In that fight, he felt Di Tian was an insurmountable mountain, crushing him physically and spiritually. Many times, he felt despair not only because he was close to death but because he could not see the hope of overcoming this monster.

'Without his pressure, I would never reach my current height,' he commented. 'There is a saying back on Earth that a hero is only as good as his villain. Batman would not be as great as he is without the Joker, and the same for Superman and Lex Luther.'

Wang Wei agreed with this saying. Of course, in the case of Di Tian and him, they were two villains.

Wang Wei continued watching the battle.

'This is the second time someone successfully schemed against me. And this, I completely lost and suffered immensely.'

Wang Wei had hundreds of ways to justify his loss. However, a defeat was a defeat; no matter his justification, it did not change the fact Di Tian bested him.

'This event is also the time I killed the most lives–innocent lives.' Although most of these deaths resulted from Di Tian's control, he also had no time to consider the lives of the countless mortals in the Heavenly Abode World, thus actively killing trillions in the process.

'In the cultivation, human life is truly one of the most worthless things,' he muttered with a sigh. Over the years, he had long overcome the guilt of his actions.

'It can be argued that I've become more ruthless and unfeeling' people have the right to call me a [Mass Murderer], and they would be justified. However, the way I see it, I've come closer to achieving my goal of being unfettered by things like human morality.'

Wang Wei was calm and peaceful; the only thing that mattered was not people's perception of him or how the world viewed him.

'The only important thing is my heart: I am at peace with who I am and my actions and that's all that matters.'

Wang Wei felt his Dao Heart strengthened, so he continued forward. The next memory was his mental breakdown after learning about his grandmother's upcoming passing.
