Slowly, Chao Li, like a wheel moving at a constant speed, had been reincarnating after reincarnating and didn't feel anything different at all.
If a thing had been moving at a constant speed, it would felt, it was the same as ever was, and like the same, Chao Li also wasn't feeling any change, as he had already adopted to reincarnation.
Unknowingly, reincarnation became part of Chao Li's soul, but he was vexed with that and want to break away from that cycle.
While reincarnating, at one particular life, coincidently, he was born on the same planet he had been born in one of the past reincarnations.
In the past, his name had been resounded as the greatest scientist of all time, but in his current life, everyone had forgotten about his name.
"New replaces Old! Nothing is constant! Time will make a one forget, so can it also make me forget about sister Ning?" He shiveringly thought inside.
"Why should have to be like this? Why should I follow this reincarnation? Damn Samsara! And this bitch time is helping reincarnation!" He cursed inside.
"If I have any wishes, those are only two. One is to meet sister Ning, and the second is to break free from these damn shackles." He strongly wished.
"But what can I do? I am just a puny mortal, as that old man evil said." He helplessly sighed.
"And I don't know why, but felt nothing is an exception from these rules. According to my, ants are puny and have a shorter life than me, and the same goes for immortals, and they felt me like an ant."
"But what is the difference between these two? Everyone would face reincarnation, and it's just a matter of time difference." He profoundly thought inside and suddenly jerked and thought,
"If no one is an exception, what about heaven? Does it will also go into reincarnation? If birth is my beginning, what about heaven? What about its death?" He confusingly thought but couldn't find any answers to it.
"Whatever, Even If I go into reincarnation, I must rejoice as even that shameless heaven isn't also escaping reincarnation." He made himself satisfied by convincing that heaven would also follow in his footsteps, but it would just take billions of years.
Like that, Chao Li had been reincarnating in different worlds and slowly came to the end of his last reincarnation.
But as he was moving to that life, he became more and more complicated because now at least he knew about his identity, but after that, he would totally forget about himself and his sister Ning.
Anyway, time hadn't stopped from moving for Chao Li, so his last reincarnation came before he knew.
In that life, Chao Li firmly decided one thing, which was to sever ties with his family as fast as possible, but family ties couldn't sever that easily.
To make that happen, Chao Li decided to do few things, and although those weren't enough, he didn't have any choice.
First, he decided to make them proud that they gave birth to some exceptional child.
Second, Make them settle economically and politically so that they could at least have a decent life after his departure.
Third, Make them adopt some other good, decent, and responsible child.
For the first thing, he decided to choose a painter, which was his first art that had been polished throughout his reincarnations.
At the age of ten, he started drawing the paintings, and within a short time, his paintings got the reputation as eternal paintings as they contained life in them.
Within, two years he got fame, power, money, and everything, and through them, he made the second thing happen.
He selected few trustworthy individuals as his representatives in the upper echelon of the political ladder.
Those would ensure his parent's safety, economically and politically.
And one day, he somehow made his parents adopt a new two-year child, and that child slowly blended into their family.
Two years after the adoption, when Chao Li was seventeen years old, he put a letter to his parents that he was leaving them and all the material things to search for the truth.
Although they were extremely sad about that, by remembering his accomplishments and by cherishing the new kid, they slowly came out of grief.
In all his life, Chao Li didn't have many emotions for his family, and all he did was a machine-like job and tried to perform the role of their son, husband, father, brother, and grandfather.
Even he didn't know why he didn't have those emotions and what influencing him by not having them.
In every reincarnation, he firmly believed, he was Chao Li, and everything else was an illusionary bubble.
Chao Li was aimlessly wandering, as he didn't know how to spend his last few years.
He didn't have any goal or destination, so he went wherever he wanted to go and slowly turned thirty years old, and at that time, people had started forgetting his name that he didn't care.
"Time is ticking down! I never felt time moved this fast! What a cheeky time it is? It always moves in the opposite direction we want!" He sighed.
One day, when he was moving in the forest, suddenly heavy rain started without any hint.
So Chao Li had to choose some cover, and since the rain was heavy, the trees failed to cover him, and also it was very dangerous to stand under the tree in heavy rain, and Chao Li didn't want to die his last life to a thunderbolt, so he searched for some other thing.
In the distance, he found a cave, so with some courage and hope, he went into that cave.
Chao Li didn't know what was waiting for him in that cave, and he would be surprised if he knew what it was and what it could do.
When Chao Li entered the cave, it was filled with pitch darkness, but in that darkness, he saw the light in the center of the cave, so his interest was piqued thus went in that direction.
From a distance, when he was approaching the light, he saw a stone platform, and a book was hovering with golden brilliance above it.
"A Book!" He was astonished inside.
