What does it mean that they all lived with lifelong regrets?

in the real world.

In the hospital library, Lin Wuhua nodded to the nurse who wheeled him in.

The nurse smiled at Lin Wuhua, walked over, and gathered the manuscripts on the table together.

She pretended not to understand, and Lin Wuhua pretended not to know that she was watching.

The manuscript was packed into a box and handed to Lin Wuhua.

The nurse raised her finger, straightened her bow tie, and then pushed Lin Wuhua into the ward.

She chatted with Lin Wuhua as they walked.

"Mr. Lin, what brings you to this sudden interest in swords?"

"Because I read in the newspaper that the country was developing Kendo, I wanted to do something about it."

"Plus, after I put on the headband, my mind was in a lot of turmoil, so I wanted to write something."

The nurse nodded.

Lin Wuhua continued, "You know what, after writing these things, my mind is much clearer, and I don't feel that chaotic feeling anymore."

"But the more I think about it, the more annoyed I get."

The nurse's hand tightened: "Is that so? Mr. Lin, what made you decide to write this...?"

It's still the same.

The nurse pretended to chat, and Lin Wuhua pretended not to know that the nurse was asking questions on purpose.

He discovered something from his observations of just a few words.

It seems that the surveillance and control system for the "suspected reincarnators" is even more outrageous than he imagined.

The nurses and doctors don't seem to be on the same side.

Or rather, they didn't know each other at all—the nurses didn't even know the doctors' last names, and they were rotated out much faster than the doctors.

Of course, that's normal. If the nurse wanted to harm him, he would have died long ago.

Therefore, Lin Wuhua decided to reveal some information to the nurse.

It's perfectly reasonable for someone who's been confined in a hospital for a long time to want to talk to someone.

The nurses would report what they saw and heard.

Not only doctors can see it, but nurses' superiors and doctors' superiors can also see it.

This greatly reduces the likelihood of doctors intervening.

It is quite reasonable that the reincarnated person was awakened by the brainwave activation of the headband.

It's also reasonable that geniuses are exposed to brainwave-activated headbands.

He knows swordsmanship but lacks cultivation; he can attack or defend.

That's a brilliant plan.

Before entering the ward, Lin Wuhua suddenly asked.

"Nurse, I'd like to see some sword manuals from outside. Could you bring me some?"

The nurse paused, then nodded.

"I will apply to the nurses' station."

Lin Wuhua felt much more at ease.

......

The sect's life unfolded in an orderly manner.

For Lin Wuhua and Xie Jiexue, life seemed to immediately become peaceful, even more peaceful than when they were traveling.

Lin Wuhua refused the other elders and became a disciple of Elder Bai Wushu, the one who passed on his skills. The reason was simple.

Because he wanted to study swordsmanship.

Unlike the simulation where he merely copied sword techniques and couldn't even understand them due to the Book of Reincarnation, the simulation showed him genuine research into sword techniques, true talent, and genuine comprehension.

As a disciple of the Transmission Elder, he could live directly in the Sutra Repository.

Bai Wushu was initially worried that there were too many books in the library, and that he was too ambitious and only wanted to learn the difficult ones, thus losing sight of the basics.

But this worry quickly disappeared, replaced by another concern.

Lin Wuhua only looked at the simplest parts, starting from the first layer.

Moreover, he watched a lot but practiced little.

Basically, he would only spend time each afternoon practicing swordsmanship with Xie Jiexue; he didn't practice at all during the rest of the year.

Many people even suspect that if Xie Jiexue stops training with him, Lin Wuhua might actually stop training altogether.

"Things are beautiful, but you should know that it's better to have no books than to believe everything in them," Bai Wushu would say occasionally.

"Master, the more I read, the less likely I am to believe everything I read."

He also spoke to Bai Wushu.

"Master, your name resonates with me, so you trust me."

"I guarantee that my cultivation level will not lag behind that of the other inner disciples."

Bai Wushu laughed heartily: "What about that piece of snow?"

Lin Wuhua: "Other ordinary inner disciples."

Bai Wushu laughed even louder.

He had to admit that Lin Wuhua and he really got along well.

So he stopped caring.

Lin Wuhua continued reading.

Then others discovered that his cultivation talent was probably not as good as Xie Jiexue's.

Because the origin of Lin Wuhua's sword bone is unknown, its assistance to him is limited—the sword bone can increase the speed of cultivation, but only when there is a cultivation method that matches the sword bone can it truly achieve twice the result with half the effort.

But his comprehension and understanding are another matter entirely.

Once, someone came to Bai Wushu for swordsmanship instruction, and Lin Wuhua happened to be there.

"Your sword is too hard. It needs to be like water here, otherwise it will disrupt the overall energy."

"When you're doing a backhand stroke, don't rotate your hand."

"To be specific, look at the fourth row of books over there, the fourth book from the right."

The man was initially skeptical, but after trying it, he realized that Lin Wuhua was absolutely right.

Now everyone believed him; he really was looking at something.

Then someone else said, "Perhaps Wu Hua is adapting his sword bones to his swordsmanship. Let's not talk about it too much. He wants to walk his own path."

This is Lin Wuhua.

But Xie Jiexue was completely different on the other side.

Her spiritual progress can be described as rapid.

The Supreme Sword Sect's most important weapon is the Supreme Frost Sword Technique, and most sect leaders also specialize in the Frost Sword Technique.

It is conceivable that the Frost series has the most predecessors, the most abundant sword manuals, and the most profound swordsmanship insights.

Lin Wuhua could no longer guide her as before—the seniors had already accumulated enough experience.

He has many skills, but lacks specialization.

In the first month after joining the sect, under the guidance of the sect leader, Xie Jiexue successfully guided Qi into his body, activating the Frost Sword Bone that had been dormant for many years.

She officially entered the first stage of cultivation—the "Qi Condensation Realm".

Like Lin Wuhua, her sword bone was located in the center of her sternum.

Once activated, the sword bone immediately began to interfere with her spiritual energy.

The spiritual energy circulating within the meridians was transformed into a unique frost sword energy by the sword bone.

Sword energy is cold energy; drawing the sword freezes everything in its path.

She tried to swing her sword, and the entire training room was instantly covered with a layer of white frost.

In the second month, she completely mastered the basics of cultivation and entered the second realm of cultivation, the Body Forging Realm.

The core of this stage is to temper the whole body with cultivation methods, going through the three stages of refining the meridians, becoming one with the body, and forging the bones, so that spiritual energy and sword energy are deeply imprinted into the depths of the flesh.

Once completed, the sword energy leaving the body is as natural as eating or drinking.

This is only natural for the owner of the sword bone.

Sword bones inherently possess the power of assimilation, and Xie Jiexue, unlike Lin Wuhua, doesn't act recklessly at all; he cultivates very diligently.

In the third month, Xie Jiexue completed the Meridian Refinement and entered the Body Integration stage.

In the sixth month, Xie Jiexue completed the body transformation and entered the bone forging stage.

After a full year in the sect, Xie Jiexue had completely mastered the Bone Forging Realm and even possessed the imagery of the third realm, "Condensation of Intent."

As long as spiritual energy is released, chills will automatically seep out from the bone snow, and frost will automatically condense within three feet of the body, just like the sect leader.

But Lin Wuhua got stuck.
