Absolute Regression: Chapter 2 Part 1

Did you push me, the second time?
The heartless time flowed mercilessly.
The world was still dominated by the weapons of war. Rumor has it that the weapons have become even stronger. He walked towards the ultimate goal of martial arts through endless training.
Among his disciples were twelve absolute masters who governed the world. They were called the Twelve Zodiac Kings by the world.
Although the absolute ruler unified the martial world, life did not improve. All sorts of injustices arose in relation to the Twelve Zodiac Kings. They gained fame if they pleased them and lost their lives if they resisted. Life became even harsher than in the era when they were divided as powers.
Meanwhile, the martial arts alliance, the righteous alliance, and the devil sect were still unable to unlock the secrets. They all said that they would never be able to unlock it as long as the weapons of war did not perish.
When the thought of dying in some unknown valley crossed his mind, the man returned once again.
When they first met, the man was in his prime, but now he had become a middle-aged man with graying hair. The man displayed an inexplicably mature aura, incomparable to back then.
He had changed. His face and body were tanned as if he had traveled around the world, and he had scars in several places that he hadn’t seen before. He had become frighteningly different, but his eyes remained as clear and profound as they were when he first found himself.
“Here is the secret ingredient of the eternal medicine.”
Inside the box he handed over was indeed the secret ingredient of the eternal medicine.
“It really exists!”
The spirit’s voice trembled.
“How on earth did you find it?”
“I searched everywhere I could. I boast that I am an absolute master of mountaineering, swimming, diving, camping. I can even draw the map of the central plains with my eyes closed.”
“That’s truly remarkable.”
“It’s not that finding it was remarkable, but it was a remarkable effort in the process, I suppose.”
The spirit suddenly had that thought. Perhaps this is not the secret ingredient of the eternal medicine but the will of this man. While thinking about the strange imagination of the ingredient being created by the blue will flowing out of the man’s solid body, the man urged once again.
“So, what’s the next ingredient?”
“Don’t you want to boast?”
How extraordinary would the adventure tales of finding the previous ingredients have been? If it were him, he wouldn’t have been able to resist boasting about his success.
“Boasting will come after I kill you and do whatever I want with your corpse. I’ll say it over and over again, then make a mummy out of you and live with that for the rest of my life. You’re here for me to kill….”
“It’s strange of you to make such jokes.”
The spirit thought that. How fearsome a will a person can manifest when they are truly angry, he witnessed the extreme examples of it.
“Just wait a moment.”
“Why?”
“I’ll provide the money. For the sake of this great law, our family has been collecting money over generations. I will use that money.”
“Why?”
“Making this great law succeed is a long-standing desire of mine and our family.”
“Very well. Thank you, truly. It will save a lot of time.”
The man was genuinely delighted.
“So, shall we have a drink together today?”
“I’ll have one drink and then leave.”
“You’re a heartless friend.”
They brought out the alcohol and sat side by side on a rock in the courtyard, pouring it into big cups and drinking slowly.
“When I first met you, both you and I were arrogant.”
“My body is aging, but my heart remains the same. I am making desperate efforts to live youthfully.”
“Why are you making such efforts?”
“I will return to my youthful self.”
