C2691 Seven Great Illusions
"Xiamo, trust me. There will definitely be no problem. We should take the bigger picture into consideration. We should just listen to the captain! " Han Xiao walked to Dongfang Xiamo's side and comforted her gently.
"Alright, but you must act according to your ability. Don't force yourself to go." Dongfang Xiamo nodded her head and left hesitantly.
"Pa!"
Just as Shen Ruyu and Dongfang Xiamo left, the heavy doors suddenly closed and an invisible telekinetic energy covered the entire palace and was unable to detect any movement.
"Big Sister Xiamo, don't worry. Big Brother Han Xiao will definitely be able to do it!" Shen Ruyu saw that Dongfang Xiamo was still worried about leaving and patiently explained.
"I understand, but my heart is always a little uneasy..." Dongfang Xiamo lowered her head and softly muttered.
"The time is pressing. The most important thing right now is to quickly increase your strength. The pressure on Big Brother Han Xiao is not small. But the pressure on us is not light either. What if Big Brother Han Xiao breaks through successfully while we are dragging him down? Wouldn't the loss outweigh the gain?" Shen Ruyu saw that her persuasion was fruitless and could only change her train of thought.
"You're right. The pressure on Third Brother is already very great. We can't continue to cause trouble..." Dongfang Xiamo nodded thoughtfully and finally made up her mind to turn around and leave.
The two of them walked together to find Senior Chu and Elder Jin. They asked them to help refine their respective Origin Medicines. However, this was only the simplest first step.
Just the Five rank Origin Medicines alone was unable to complete the breakthrough. Dongfang Xiamo needed to head to the Mysterious Underworld Sacred Pond. To carry out a series of rigorous training, the only way was to train the body to be strong enough. Only then could she break through to the Fifth rank Combat Element Gene Lock in one go.
Shen Ruyu, on the other hand, needed to undergo self-tempering on the Spiritual Energy. However, her Spiritual Energy foundation was only slightly worse than Dongfang Xiamo's, so breaking through to the Fifth rank Combat type would not be too much of a problem.
After the two of them had completely left, Feng Yixiu finally relaxed. He immediately turned around and said with a serious face, "Big brother Han Xiao, do you know why I want to send Big Sister Xiamo away?"
"Don't tell me you are afraid that I will be affected?" Han Xiao said with a puzzled face.
"That is one thing. I am afraid Big Sister Xiamo will not be able to bear it if she hears your scream," Feng Yixiu shook his head and said seriously.
"Is... is it that scary?" Han Xiao subconsciously shivered and asked in doubt.
"Perhaps it is even more cruel than you think. Because you have not paid attention to the refinement of Spiritual Energy for a long time. Therefore, your foundation has fallen by a large margin. It can't be made up for in a day or a night. Therefore, I plan to spend seven days to undergo special training. " Feng Yixiu frowned slightly and said in a cold voice.
"Seven days isn't too long. If I can really make up for it, then I will earn a lot." Han Xiao did not mind and muttered softly.
"I said seven days is only for the outside world. In fact, you will need to go through seven years of torture in your mental world. If it were not for your great perseverance, I'm afraid you would have completely collapsed. The reason why I told you all of this in advance... I hope you're prepared. " Feng Yixiu shook his head and said in a soft voice.
There were indeed shortcuts in the path of cultivation, but the price they had to pay was also huge. Han Xiao wanted to make up for the results he had achieved after years of hard work. Then he had to bear unimaginable pain.
"Seven years..."
Han Xiao was also shocked by this exaggerated number. He had thought that the process would be very difficult, but he did not expect it to be so difficult.
If it was only a short period of mental torture, he could still endure it. However, he had been in a highly tense state for several years. No matter how determined his spirit was, he would fall into madness.
"That's right. The tempering of the Spiritual Energy is not something that can be done overnight. There are almost no shortcuts that can be taken. Furthermore, Nether King's Eye will see through the fear in your heart and create an unexpected spiritual domain." Feng Yixiu also did his best to make Han Xiao mentally prepared, even though this would not be of much help.
"Since I know that everything is an illusion, then why would I feel pain?" Han Xiao touched his chin and asked seriously.
"Then you underestimate Nether King's eyes too much. At the same time, you overestimate people's brains too much." Feng Yixiu smiled and shook his head, then explained, "Let me put it this way, even if you know that the horror movie is fake. What? Don't forget that it is a spiritual field that is no different from real experience. Moreover, you are still mentally exhausted. After such a long period of time, you are unable to differentiate between the illusory world and the real world..."
Generally speaking, the higher one's Spiritual Energy is, the stronger one's resistance to the mental illusion would be. They would be able to maintain relative calm at any time, and could even break the illusion with a single thought.
However, this was not very possible for Han Xiao. His Spiritual Energy and Feng Yixiu were probably too weak. Other than relying on his willpower to grit his teeth and endure, there was almost no possibility of him breaking through.
"Then what should I do to survive?" Han Xiao also realized the danger of this matter, and his expression became extremely solemn.
"Try to experience the pain as much as possible, and grit your teeth and endure it. Other than that, I don't have any other good suggestions..." Feng Yixiu shook his head helplessly and said softly.
"I think I understand." Han Xiao nodded with a serious expression, then slowly sat down with his legs crossed.
"In seven years, there will be a total of seven rounds of illusion. Each round will last for one year. If you are ready, then we can start immediately. " Feng Yixiu sat on the ground opposite of him. His right hand was wrapped in black mist, forming the Heavenly Abyss Nether King Sword.2
Han Xiao took a deep breath, then nodded silently. He then shifted his gaze to Nether King's eyes, which was trembling continuously.
"Open!"
Following Feng Yixiu's shout, the tightly shut Nether King's Eye suddenly opened. A strange soul fluctuation spread out with a loud bang.
Although Han Xiao was prepared, the moment he was struck by the terrifying soul attack, he felt his vision go black, and his brain lost all consciousness.
In the middle of his half-awake dream, Han Xiao was awakened by the noisy sounds of weapons. His entire body sat up like a spring, and his head felt like it was going to split apart. His consciousness was still somewhat fuzzy.
Han Xiao's vision had yet to fully recover when he smelled a nauseating smell of blood. His clothes had long become wet.
He saw Han Xiao rub his sore eyes with all his might, but his blurry vision was dyed with a layer of blood that could not be dissolved. Only then did he realize that his hands were already covered in fresh blood.
He was also shocked by the shocking blood color. He stood up abruptly. He desperately wanted to wipe away the blood on his hands, but he found that the more he wiped, the dirtier it became. His clothes had long been soaked by the blood.
All of this was too realistic. If Feng Yixiu hadn't reminded him in advance, he would have thought that everything in front of him was real.
Because he had just entered the spiritual domain, Han Xiao still maintained a trace of rationality, but no one knew how long this rationality could last.
