Chapter 458 The Reason I Killed Me

When I look within myself and examine my true heart, I see the blade stabbing me from the past.

"My murderer is a high-ranking one."

Combining the countless memories of his own past deaths deep in his heart, although Gao Ming had never seen the murderer's face, he had some vague guesses in his mind.

In order to ensure that everything goes well, he gave Fanli a task in the past and future death realms and asked him to find Gao Yun.

Because he was unsure of his guess, Gao Ming used the power of the God of the Future to forcibly deprive Gao Yun of all his memories before leaving the realm of death and returning to the vast ocean shrouded by fate.

So even he himself didn't know that the baby on the bus was Gao Yun. In order to deceive fate and hide Gao Yun's existence, he had to deceive himself first.

As it turned out, he was right.

The Flesh and Blood Immortal, whose strength was close to that of a dream ghost, and the flames produced by the burning fragments of the statue and the black and white portrait, were unable to prevent the murderer from getting close. The other party knew all of Gao Ming's arrangements, but had ignored Gao Yun.

That second of looking back was a second outside the fateful script. It was precisely because of this second that should not have existed that Gao Ming saw the murderer and himself.

The upside-down water droplets paused for a moment, and the entire tunnel began to shake violently, as if two worlds had violently collided and began to crush each other.

A piece of skin fell off the murderer's face, which looked exactly like Gao Ming's. It seemed that there was only one living person in the world who could survive under the name of Gao Ming. He was living in the tunnel, and the moment Gao Ming saw him, his body began to disintegrate.

Stopping at the place where Gao Ming had just walked, this murderer who could only live in the past had no anger or pain on his face, but a hint of imperceptible relief in his calmness.

The last time Gao Ming entered the tunnel, at the last moment before being killed by the murderer, he turned his head and looked behind him. He saw a bus soaked by heavy rain speeding towards him, with another him sitting in the window.

This time, when he turned around, he saw the murderer who looked exactly like him, shattering and disappearing before his eyes, just like a taboo being broken and a dusty door being pushed open.

One was bitter and broken in the black fog, the other was silent with clenched fists in the firelight.

There was no piercing car horn, nor the dazzling white light from the headlights. Gao Ming only heard the murderer's final muttering: "Fate has determined everything. Everything has its place. But now everything is out of control. You may have a chance to escape the control of fate."

The terrifying feeling of oppression slowly disappeared, and the murderer uttered his last words: "I know that our name is not Gao Ming. I hope you can do it this time."

The murderer seemed to have never appeared and completely disappeared into the past. Gao Ming silently looked at the place where the other party was standing.

He knew clearly that when he was killed last time, the murderer helped fate to give him a task and also said a crucial sentence - "From now on, your name is Gao Ming."

It is the same person. After Gao Ming used various means to make the murderer disappear, he said another sentence at the last moment of his disappearance - in fact, our name is not Gao Ming.

"There is a huge difference between these two sentences. The killer in the tunnel killed me over and over again and collected my various corpses. He seemed to be an accomplice of fate, but in fact he never stopped me from starting over, nor did he imprison me in the tunnel. He just kept a tight guard to prevent me from knowing the truth."

Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing. The murderer is more like a screener, hiding in the tunnel and repeatedly killing Gao Ming who are unqualified, forcing Gao Ming to accumulate will through repeated death and complete the final transformation, until Gao Ming can use his own ability to make him dissipate. Gao Ming had a very absurd idea in his mind. Did he kill me so many times... to protect me in some sense?
impossible!
The pain of death made Gao Ming tremble. He looked at the corpses filling the tunnel, his mind in great confusion.

Gao Ming bit his tongue hard, and after calming down, he looked towards the other side of the tunnel.

Compared to the last time, after the murderer disappeared, the bus coming from the past did not appear again, and the cycle that had been bothering Gao Ming was broken.

“I don’t have a second chance this time. Maybe I can walk out of the tunnel and leave the vast ocean!”

His body became excited because of the emergence of this thought, but the murderer's last words made Gao Ming hesitate. The world outside the tunnel is likely to be more dangerous and terrifying than the vast ocean.

Perhaps the murderer is aware of this, which is why he keeps hunting down Gao Ming, allowing him to accumulate strength in the blind spots of fate's supervision.

"Lu Zang made a plan to hunt down Fate, but his behavior in Lishan Hospital made one thing clear. He didn't know that there was someone in the tunnel who was constantly hunting me. This murderer had nothing to do with Lu Zang or Fate. He finally said that he hoped I could do it this time. This time? Have I ever been close to success before?"

An unspeakable aura of horror permeated the black fog. The evil spirits on the bloody bus roared uneasily, and Gao Ming's thoughts were interrupted.

"The cycle has been broken. I have no way back. Now I can only move forward!"

Although Gao Ming did not encounter the bus coming from the past, this time he brought the "school bus" he built in the vast sea.

"The trouble has been solved. Everyone get in the car! Stay alert! We are ready to rush out of the tunnel! Leave the vast sea!"

Leaving the vast ocean, these four simple words are something that many people and ghosts can never do in their lifetime.

Bowing towards the corpse embedded in the tunnel, Gao Ming returned to the school bus and took hold of the steering wheel again.

None of the students in Class 13 on the bus dared to speak. They originally viewed Gao Ming as just an ordinary person who was a little bit more powerful, but Gao Ming's performance just now directly shattered their worldview.

What kind of person could own a tunnel of corpses?
Each of them died in a different way, and each face contained despair and pain. The school bus drove in the tunnel, as if it was visiting a personal exhibition of high-profile corpses, and even the organizer of the exhibition was driving for them.

The car lights came on and Gao Ming stepped on the accelerator to accelerate. He could sense something approaching in the black fog.

Without the protection of the campfire, Gao Ming used the abilities of the God of the Past and the God of the Future to see through the black fog. He drove a long way, but there was still no exit ahead.

When he was feeling a little strange, the straight tunnel in his memory changed, and a fork appeared in front of the school bus.

Black fog was floating in the two tunnels on the left and right. The walls of the tunnel on the left were dilapidated, and there were construction wastes on the ground, which was obviously in an unfinished state; the tunnel on the right was normal, and there was no difference from the tunnel Gao Ming had come from before.

"The sorceress predicted the exit to the outside world... but there was an unexpected flaw in fate."
