He finally believed it.
But he only believed in the logic of finding a "safe world," rather than being convinced that he was a complete and independent individual.
Rather than finding a safe world, the wise man is more interested in figuring out what memories he has lost and whether these fragmented memories are even his own.
So he quietly began his verification plan, the first step of which was to deceive the sorcerer who was traveling with him.
It wasn't really a deception. The trickster master's shrewdness seemed somewhat naive in comparison. With just a little guidance, he aroused the other party's twisted hatred for Cheng Shi. Then, he led the trickster master to travel between different pig bridges, to meet different Cheng Shis, and began to prepare his plan.
He fabricated a complete plan, telling the Trickster Master that their only chance of winning was to find a still weak Fate Weaver, kill him, and then go to that world together. But in reality, he was preparing to trace the origins of his own identity.
He said that Cheng Shi, who could appear in the real universe, was already very powerful, and he alone could not fight against him. Therefore, they needed to first enter a relatively safe world to improve the power of the Trick Master, and then the two of them would work together to deal with him slowly.
Su Yida, who yearned for power, firmly believed in this and descended into this world along with the magic formula.
What followed was what happened in this world. Jieshu prepared a plan, gathered intelligence, and searched for traces of his own existence. In the process, he made progress in the first two areas, but made no progress in the last one.
The wise man became increasingly curious about his origins, and after much deliberation, a bold plan took shape.
He devised a method using Cheng Shi's techniques to find a way to "trace the source," and then launched a source-tracing experiment similar to "remembering the past self" without stopping.
Another safe return of Su Yida provided Jieshu with enough experimental data. By fitting the data and imitating the proportion of divine power in the spacetime channel, he successfully opened up a spacetime channel that could find a deep connection with his past self.
Moreover, he added some clever ideas to the experiment.
According to the expert, if he was truly an independent individual who fled from a certain world, then that world was very likely already destroyed. If he were to trace back to the source at this point, he would most likely perish along with that world.
Therefore, he locked his destination in this world. As long as he can find traces of his past existence in this world, he will be able to regain his memories.
However, the lack of results in his search for his self-identity outside of the experiment had already given him some bad thoughts, and now, those bad thoughts have finally come true.
