It was hot, scorching hot. The thing is that the previous situation with me feeling bloated was more urgent so I didn't have time to feel out of my environment. But now that I am somehow stabilized and continuously cycling the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique], I feel like the pressure the bloating [Ki] was causing diminish and fills me with great relief. Don't get me wrong, I am still bloated, but the [Black Heaven and Earth Technique] helps me alleviated the pressure a bit.

I moved my finger on both my hands and my feet, good every one of them was working normally, and the fact that I am feeling my legs and hands perfectly can only be good news. While I was moving my feet and hand I felt something on the ground. Sand. Scorching sand.

I guess now is not a good time to be lying on extremely scorching sands, suddenly I was able to feel all that hot sand burning against my body, I would have normally yelped in pain, but what sis impel physical pain compared to what I've felt, this barely phases me, heck I doubt if someone drops hot coffee on me I would feel the true pain like I've felt before.

With some difficulty trying to get a grip on the moving sand I was able to sit straight. Now is the part that I've been trying to avoid, opening my eyes. Sincerely I don't wanna do it, my eyes are extremely precious to me, I first acquired them due to my father's death, and I reached their final evolution due to my mother's death. So, even if it doesn't look like it I care a great deal about my eyes. Besides, my vision also means a great deal to me, it's literally one of my points of pride.

I know I have some kinds of mixed feeling about this, one of my sides wants to be concerned about my survival, the integrity of my eyes and whatnot, my other more depressive side want to simply give up and die. It's a strange feeling of bipolarity I am experiencing right now...

"Why don't you try living for yourself a bit... Friend." ~???~

That phrase I heard a little bit earlier echoed in my mind again, I couldn't help but think about those words. Living for myself... that sounds like something... good... I just hope that I can overcome this sadness, this depression, this painful void. Now to open my eyes.

Slowly my eyelids started to tremble, they trembled as if they didn't want to part themselves and show what was under them. But I continued pushing, and eventually, I opened them. The moment I opened my eyes I almost cried.

My vision was blurry, extremely so, It was like I had Astigmatism of the highest degree. I could only see a blurry outline of what should be a sea of pale sands connecting with the blue sky, I am not able to differentiate detail or recognize any kinds of dunes or sandhills, for me it was like the whole desert was a simple straight blurry sand carpet, at the horizon I could see and the extremely blurry line of the horizon, going up was the sky and it appears that there are no clouds up there, or at least I can't see any cloud with my current defective sight.

My vision is bad, really bad. But it's honestly a miracle I am not blind, but I am extremely close to becoming so. A more short and accurate description of my sight right would be that I simply see blurs of colors, and much rarely form of things. I discovered the last bit when I looked at my hand, I can't see my finger individually, but I can see a blurry form of my hand, I am only able to differentiate my finger when I really open my palm wide, and that is just barely.

With how my sight is right now I think I can use my [Mangekyo Sharingan] once or twice, maybe three times before my eyes going completely blind. And that is specific towards my [Mangekyo Sharingan] abilities [Shift] and [King Crimson], [Susanoo] is night impossible. technically I can indeed summon my [Susanoo], but the strain on my eyes would be so huge that I maybe can only summon it for two or three seconds before my eyes are closed forever. When they say that the [Susanoo] is the stronger skill of the [Mangekyo Sharingan] that also includes the side effects.

But now I want to test a theory I have on my [Sharingan]. I distinctly remember that in naruto Itachi maintained his [Sharingan] activated almost all the time, so I have a theory that the basic [Sharingan] can function as some kind of glasses for someone going blind like me. It won't be perfect obviously, but there can only be a reason that Itachi that was going blind always maintained his [Sharingan] active, I first thought it was for training, but becoming nearly blind shone some rays of hope. I activate my [Sharingan] while looking at my hand.

It fucking worked. So as long as I have my basic [Sharingan] active I should be seen normally, the usual buffs of the basic [Sharingan] are working as normal too. Some good news at least. With the intent of seeing the desert, I looked up.

As expected, it isn't as good as it first appeared to be. I can see perfectly even to a cellular level with my [Sharingan] active, but only on a radius of 10 meters. After the 10 meters distance everything starts to get absurdly blurry, it is like even with my [Sharingan] active I have a constant reminder on how close to becoming blind I am. I knew this was too good to be true.

But at least I can still see, it may be only on a 10 meters distance with my [Sharingan] active, but I can still see, and that is something positive at least. A pity that acquiring the [Eternal Magekyo] for me is impossible. I guess I will have to deal with it for the rest of my life... Well, complaining like a whiny bitch will carry me nowhere, so I will just need to get used to it.

With strange and mixed feelings in my heart, I simply decided to let myself fall back on the fluffy and scorching sand. My body started to fall slowly, but instead of hitting the soft sand, I hit some kind of rock wall. How the hell there is a rock wall here? I didn't notice any shadows, but seeing as the sun is literally on my face I can guess it is possible. With my [Sharingan] still active I turned around and looked. And I was instantly mesmerized.

I may not be able to see the details, as all I see is a bunch of blurs of different colors. But by what I can see I was instantly mesmerized. It was a mountain, that much was obvious, on this mountain there were nine white blurs, that I presume are some kind of structures, maybe building, or it could be some temples or simple mansions. Sadly I can't see any details from this distance.

Then I looked around for a bit, focusing on the 10 meters I could see clearly. The place I hit beforehand was some sort of big archway made an entrance, and when I say big, I really mean it. Heck with my 10 meters vision I couldn't even see the top, and if the blurs are any indications it continues for at least three times what I could see. So maybe around 3 meters of height or something of the sort.

This archway doesn't have any kind of inscriptions or images engraved into it, the archway also seem to be strangely smooth and polished, like someone spent a great deal of time polishing it, and at least some good meters of its base seems to have been submerged on the sand, the biggest clue was the stairs surging from the sand and go up to a polished cobblestone road.

Well, this is probably a very stupid idea, but the cool mountain tremble sparked my curiosity in more ways than one. and if there is one thing I don't have is fear of dying.

I passed through the stone archway and started to normally climb up the stone stairway, I quickly noticed that the stairway seems to be heavily polished and smooth. And when one of the hot breezes of the desert passed through me I finally took notice that I am basically naked. I have the rags that somehow survived my rampage. These rags barely cover my modesty but seeing as I have literally nothing on my beside it, I am not complaining.

Finally, I reached the end of the stairway and started walking on the cobblestone road. there really wasn't much to see, not that I could anyway, but most of the things here seem to be submerged in sand. but my mind can easily build an epic and full of people mountain, how they would use this cobblestone road to walking up and down the mountain, or how they would fill everything with life and people.

I continue going down the path while bringing almost everything I could to memory, everything inside of my 10 meters area that is, but that doesn't mean I was discouraged. I continued walking and after some time I reached a plaza, a pretty huge plaza.

At the entrance of the plaza, there were two slabs of stone that read.

[Welcome to Mt. Arcana]

Hmmm, so the name of this place is Mt. arcana, interesting. This is definitely not a normal name we use on planet earth. Yeah, I've had my suspicions that this isn't earth anymore for quite some time. I know we have deserts on earth so at the start, I was still pretty confused about my location. I thought I may have been dropped at the Saara desert or something of the sorts.

But when I saw this mountain and the big stone structures, I reached a simple conclusion. There is no way a place like this would exist on earth without anyone around, or it at least being semi-popular on the internet. And when I saw the weird name of Mt. Arcana. I quickly drew some conclusions.

For someone like me, that has already died and reincarnated in an alternative version of the earth, but with cultivation put in the middle, the prospects of other worlds don't seem that far fetched, on the contrary now that I think about it, they seem way more possible by the second.

Some people would be freaking out by being transport to another world, or maybe they would enter some sort of overdrawn negation period. But I didn't care much, to be honest, everyone I cared about in The Breaker world has died, I feel complete indifference on being transported to another world. Okay, maybe not total indifference, I am certainly curious about this new world, and that is a fact.

And I am pretty curious about this so-called Mt. Arcana, why whoever transported me would send me to this specific place, this specific time. Maybe there is no reason for something like this, maybe this is simply some randomness that happened when I was transported. But everything seems too much convenient to be just a coincidence. And as master Oogway used to say "There are no accidents."

I continued walking into the place, and I was principally focusing on a blur I saw in the middle of it. I think it is a statue of some sort so I guess it wouldn't hurt to check. Maybe I could find something really-

What.

The Actual.

Fuck.

When I got closer and the supposed statued entered my 10 meters range, I couldn't hide nor hold my surprise at what I saw. This statue... What the fuck...

Do I know who is in this statue?... Well, Of course I know him. He's me.
