Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 1 Born with Red Eyes Xiao Zizai

"My name is Xiao Zizai, and I'm an alien."

"I have been a top student since I was young and I don't like to talk. No matter whether it is a task assigned by the teacher or a request for help from classmates, I will just calmly and perfectly carry out any request."

“No matter how lively the environment is, whether people are sad or happy, my emotions will not fluctuate at all. Therefore, people who know me well give me the same evaluation: mature, stable, and introverted.”

"And the first time I realized that I might not be normal was when I fought back against someone who was bullied and made him bleed. I didn't feel scared, but... a little excited?"

"This emotion was unfamiliar to me because I had never had any emotional fluctuations before, so from then on, I began to observe myself..."

"I soon discovered that when I was in anatomy classes, watching violent movies, or seeing pigs and chickens being slaughtered, people around me either showed pity or fear. But no matter how I tried to convince myself, I couldn't go against my true feelings..."

“Only excitement!”

"If the reaction of most people can be called normal..."

"I must be the sick one!"

"And then I found out that I was indeed sick - a disease that would turn my eyes red and turn me into a killing machine... a congenital madness!"

"After I realized I had violent tendencies, my first reaction was fear, extreme fear. At the same time, I tried every possible way to hide it, and I relied on self-harm to barely suppress the impulse."

"For a long time after that, I studied various psychological therapies and spiritual practices, trying my best to heal myself, but it was obvious that it had no effect."

"It was not until I met my master, Master Jiekong, at Lingyin Temple that I became a Buddhist, believing that the compassion of Buddhism could eliminate my cruel nature."

"But the master said: The compassion of Buddhism is not what I imagined, and it cannot cure my illness. However, people's good and evil thoughts all come from 'self-attachment' and 'self-view'. If I can practice to get rid of 'self-attachment', then my existence itself will not be a problem, let alone mental illness."

"After that, I have been practicing with Master. Although other brothers and sisters said that they wanted me to stay away from killing and fighting, Master still taught me his own methods and means because I have this talent..."

"Master has always believed that starting with martial arts might help me get rid of my ego, and at least in the first few years, that was indeed the case."

"Since I followed my master to learn martial arts, the intervals between my attacks have become longer and longer. The best time was a year without an attack. I have made great progress."

"All my fellow practitioners were happy for me, including myself, but my master repeatedly reminded me: Don't be reckless in your practice. If you are reckless and fall into greed, you will strengthen your ego and lose all your previous efforts..."

"I still regret not listening to my master at that time."

"During that time, I was too proud of myself and secretly practiced more. Eventually, my ego became stronger. That night, I couldn't help but open my red eyes..."

"I went crazy. I don't remember exactly what happened. I only know that my master had the opportunity to destroy me but didn't. Instead, he took all my attacks. My meridians were completely destroyed and I only had one breath left!"

"After I came to my senses, my fellow disciples wanted to destroy me to avenge my master. I was willing to accept it, but my master resolutely stopped me and just asked me to leave Buddhism and find my own way."

"I made an agreement with him that if there was really no other way out and I could no longer control myself, I would go back to Lingyin Temple and... kill him."

"After that, I returned to secular life and lived a normal life for a few years. I had a job, friends and a girlfriend."

"I don't get pink eye very often, and I've been able to suppress it with my experience in cultivation. But today... I don't even remember what triggered me, or maybe there was no reason at all. I was planning to propose to her..."

"But he almost strangled her to death!"...

……

March 2010 (five years before the main plot).

night.

The sky was terribly gloomy, with dark clouds rolling in and heavy rain pouring down.

In an apartment in Hangzhou, Xiao Zizai retreated in panic, staring at his hands in horror and shaking violently.

At this moment, his girlfriend was lying on the bed in front of him. There were obvious marks of pinching on her neck, which was already bruised and she had fainted. The diamond ring for the proposal was lying not far away.

Looking at him again, his eyes were ferocious and bloodshot, with excitement still remaining in his eyes. His head kept shaking, and two completely different emotions were fighting in his mind!

"Why is this happening..."

After a moment, Xiao Zizai stopped shaking and stood up. He wanted to kill the woman in front of him, the woman he loved the most...

When he thought of his lover's blood flowing before his eyes, he couldn't suppress his excitement, but his awakening reason pulled him back, preventing him from raising his hand again!
"No, no!"

Xiao Zizai panicked, his heart pounding as if it was about to burst out of his chest. He wanted to kill her, but he didn't want to watch her die, so he had to escape immediately...

Escape completely!

He knew that once he left the door today, there would be no turning back. A normal life was ultimately a pipe dream. He had always been a dangerous lunatic and should have accepted his fate long ago!

"The best way right now is to go out and find a scumbag, kill him and turn himself in, then stay in jail for the rest of my life!" Having made up his mind, Xiao Zizai did not stop and rushed straight to the door.

At the same time, he prayed in his heart, hoping that he would not meet innocent people again before this. He could feel his murderous intent being released little by little, and there was a possibility that it would get out of control at any time!
however……

His luck today was obviously extremely bad. As soon as he opened the door, the security door next door also opened, and a figure wandered out. It was his neighbor who had just moved in two weeks ago.

He remembered that the boy was called Xia Ye, a young man who had just graduated and was still unemployed. On the night he moved in, he gave some fruit gifts to enhance neighborly relations. This is rare in today's era and is still fresh in his memory!
boom! ! !
As soon as he saw a living person, Xiao Zizai could no longer control himself. It was as if a bomb exploded in his head. His pupils were instantly filled with blood red and he went crazy!

Then he moved his body and pounced forward like a mad beast, grabbing the opponent's crown with his claws, and the blood-red Shaolin Dragon Claw Hand appeared in an instant!

"Oh?"

However, the next second, this young man who could not be more ordinary in Xiao Zizai's eyes narrowed his eyes. He did not show the slightest fear, but instead a look of surprise.

Facing his fierce and intimidating attack, the opponent was not afraid at all. He raised his right index finger and tapped his forehead first...

Wow——!
A wave of air spread out, infusing coolness into his body. His body shook, and the red light in his eyes suddenly dissipated!
