Lord of the Time: I Can Reincarnate Infinitely

Chapter 122: 122: Three Mos

In those three months. Zetsu made them fight wild beasts to accumulate combat experience and put them through hell. Brink of death anytime. Of course, this was true for Kazuto and Kidd. However, Rozho and Shu didn't have much of a hard time. As for Caleb... Even a Tier 9 Apokalips of 2nd Variation might not be his opponent. What's more, a mere wild beast...

He was still a human, but his abilities had already exceeded what his race could do. Even the tests... They were too simple for him. He didn't even need to exert himself much. He only showed 34% of his strength, yet Zetsu and the others were already in awe of him.

This led to him asking a question to himself. What if he shows his full strength? What would be their reaction? A non-destiny with such strength? It was bound to cause a commotion. Those big bosses and big guys behind the scenes would become interested in the point. The question is... Would they treat him as a lab rat? Would they do anything to obtain or to know his secrets? How far would they go?

These are his questions. That's why he decided to stay low-key for now. Without sufficient strength, he won't be able to protect his secrets. Is staying low-key wrong? He didn't know the answer. But he was certain of one thing. If he shows his strength, he has to be ready to face people with greedy hearts.

Look at what happened to Ironman, who lives a life in a high-profile manner. He paid the consequences. He lives a miserable life because everyone knows who he is and covets his wealth and technology. Was he strong enough to protect himself? He was indeed so. But it can't be denied that the troubles being high-key had brought to his life. Low-key is the kingly way for him to live long, long enough to thoroughly gain benefits to the World of Destiny's power system!

'It's too boring to live a low-key life. I don't want to replicate the life of those damned Xianxia protagonists. I want to swagger and show my strength. But it's not the time yet.' Caleb sighed internally.

Xianxia typically revolves around the journey of individuals seeking to achieve higher levels of cultivation, spiritual enlightenment, and martial prowess. A low-key life allows a character to concentrate on their cultivation without unnecessary distractions or attention. It's often considered wiser to stay focused on personal growth rather than seeking fame or recognition.

A high-profile life in Xianxia can attract adversaries and unwanted conflicts. This is because the cultivation world is often depicted as a place where powerful individuals are in constant competition. Staying low-key helps characters avoid unnecessary confrontations, maintain peace, and focus on their goals.

In Xianxia, the protagonist often needs access to rare resources, powerful techniques, and guidance from experienced mentors to advance in their cultivation journey. Staying low-key can make it easier to access such resources, as a character doesn't draw attention to themselves, allowing them to learn and grow more effectively.

Many Xianxia ianxia stories feature the existence of hidden or forbidden cultivation techniques and secrets. A low-key character is more likely to come across these hidden treasures and be entrusted with profound knowledge, as they are not perceived as threats or competitors.

Xianxia characters often cherish moments of tranquility and personal growth. A high-profile life filled with battles, rivalries, and political intrigue can disrupt the protagonists' inner peace and lead to emotional turmoil. A low-key existence allows for a more serene and harmonious life.

Characters who live low-key often surprise their adversaries by concealing their true strength and potential. This element of surprise can be a significant advantage in battles and competitions, catching opponents off guard and leading to victory.

Caleb looked at the sky. 'Like a wolf in pig's clothing.'

In Xianxia, it's not uncommon for characters to adopt different identities and personas for various reasons, including concealing their true origins or past. Living a low-key life enables characters to maintain their true identity, guarding against past enemies or hidden agendas.

What are the pros of a low-key life? Readers in his past life often debate on what's better. To live a low-key life or a high-profile one?

First privacy, living under the radar means you can pick your nose or sing in the shower without fear of paparazzi catching you in the act. Second, Reduced Stress (Zen Mode), Less attention means fewer stress-induced hair-pulling incidents. Who needs that bald spot, anyway? Third, free fucking dom. Enjoy the freedom to dance like nobody's watching, even if you're convinced your cat is secretly judging your moves.

Not to mention, you get to be the boss of your own life, like deciding the TV channels and what's for dinner. Dominance over the couch. Less competition, fewer competitors for that last piece of pizza or the closest parking spot. A win-win for your belly and your car. Lastly, it may lead to deeper, more genuine relationships with fewer superficial connections.

As for the cons. Low-key individuals may receive less recognition or validation for their accomplishments or talents. It might lead to a sense of stagnation or a lack of ambition, limiting one's aspirations. Avoiding attention can sometimes mean missing out on exciting experiences and adventures. There can be societal pressure to conform to a more high-profile lifestyle, causing feelings of inadequacy.  Even when you shout "WORLD PEACE" from the rooftop, the world thinks you're just practicing your karaoke scream.

But does Caleb give a fuck? No! He just wants power! Not fame or glory. Strength is the foundation of all things. At least for him.
