He took a deep breath and, realizing that he was back in reality again, Zhang Yuan reflected on the hardships of life...
He also felt a bit nostalgic for the bizarre worlds he had experienced in the past.
Good or bad, it all came down to comparison. Even in worlds where the environment was extremely harsh, having spent decades or even centuries there, there was always a bit of longing.
After five cycles of reincarnation, Zhang Yuan no longer really cared whether this was the Virtual World or the real world.
Or, one could say, life in the Virtual World and life in the real world weren't much different after all, both needed to be taken seriously and lived well. No matter where, there would be happiness, sadness, joy, loss, and pain… Where could one find a flawless, utterly smooth life? If one treated the Virtual World with the attitude of playing a game, it undoubtedly would be irresponsible to oneself.
