Chapter 127 Power
What is the red light all around the god? At that moment, I had an answer. It turned out to be the fire-starting technique used by Wu Liyu’s junior apprentice.
However, because she was so skilled and because she was using the technique in this special place, the fire-drawing technique had completely changed and become a higher-level technique, which was why it had such an effect.
The river of fate of the god originally could not absorb the power of the five elements, and at the moment I decided to step on it, I understood this truth, that is, this so-called “reverse the heavens” river, can absorb only the most ethereal and intangible, but also a higher level of things, or about the soul of everything, or about the fate of everything…
“Do you think this can harm me?” A spark quietly floated to within three meters of the god, then exploded on impact, spreading toward the god. It looked very good, and its power and might were astonishing, but the god didn’t care at all.
With those long, white hands, he had already clasped them in front of his chest. In less than three seconds, he had already changed his hand gestures five times… In the river of fate, an inexplicable force kept surging towards the god, who remained calm and collected.
The dark clouds in the sky gathered again, and the breeze that had been blowing here turned into gusts of wind, swirling to prevent the fire from descending from the sky…
If it were before, I’m afraid I would only be able to see the god’s hands move a little bit, right? This thought popped up in my mind inexplicably… Then, under the pressure, my left foot, which had been in a stalemate, was no longer recklessly stepped on.
Boom! After this strong kick, my brain felt like it had been hit by a heavy punch. My ears started to buzz at the same time, and the sound was like a dozen gongs ringing in my ears at the same time, deafening and making me dizzy, while the aftertaste continued.
I instinctively wanted to cover my ears, but I absolutely couldn’t do that… My footsteps hadn’t yet stopped, and I gritted my teeth, enduring the discomfort and forcing my feet to fall.
The pressure surrounding me and my master was like the most hateful reaction force. I used strength, and it also became stronger, squeezing my soul severely. At this time, my eyes, which had originally become inexplicably “powerful,” did not turn black… In the uncomfortable humming and dark world, I was like being deprived of my five senses.
The hand that Master placed on my back moved his fingers, and that was him stopping me from stepping hard. He might not be able to fully empathize with my feelings, but anyone would know that the loss of the five senses is definitely a manifestation of a wounded soul.
Since I was a child, I have always listened to my master’s words. Even though I was a little rebellious when I was young, I grew up deliberately rebellious, but deep down I cared about it and would eventually listen.
However, at this moment, I ignored my master’s warning. A voice in my heart told me that only by taking this step beyond my limits could I have a chance to win in this seemingly difficult battle.
My feet were still slowly falling, and on the other side I felt my master’s anxiety. He also began to forcefully take this step, wanting to catch up with me and share my pressure.
My teeth were aching, and I could feel a trickle of blood. At that moment, I saw the film crack and spread to the extreme… falling! Falling… I roared in my heart, and finally, my whole body reached its limit, and my left foot finally touched the ground.
A huge planet suddenly lit up in my world of meditation as I landed. It spun rapidly, each rotation bringing with it tremendous power… and every bit of power was stirring up the absolute tranquility of my world of meditation. My world of meditation, which had originally been lit up with five stars, began to fall apart…
I could no longer see the outside world, but at this moment, I could clearly feel the situation in my inner world, which was broken… completely broken… My world of thought suddenly fell apart, and then I seemed to see my own soul, invaded by a huge pressure, which began to be crushed inch by inch. Where the pressure crossed, the soul began to break inch by inch, and it was broken into small pieces.
The soul is the fundamental thing, and its fragmentation not only represents the complete disappearance of Chen Chengyi, but also the disappearance of the lives that Chen Chengyi has experienced in reincarnation.
At that moment, I completely felt the coldness of death, and all I could think of was one thought: Could it be that I was wrong to forcefully step on the earth and sky? Did I lose my life like this?
The master’s large hand on my back began to tremble violently. I thought to myself, if I died in front of him like this, and he was unable to stop it, it would be a huge blow to his life… I’m sure my master would be very sad. I was subconsciously sad, but there was nothing I could do. There was only him and myself… I could only watch as my soul shattered into pieces, spreading at an alarming rate…
Limbs, torso, heart, chest… The pressure was like a person wielding a heavy hammer, not sparing any part of my body, gradually approaching the spirit platform… My consciousness began to blur, it was completely blurred, because of the fragmentation of the soul, but I could only watch and feel!
At this moment, I could no longer feel the outside world or even the membrane. I only knew that when this pressure approached the spirit altar, my world of existence would be completely shattered. At that time, the five other streams of star power would combine with this pressure to completely crush the core of my soul hidden in the spirit altar. Then these crushed souls would all float out of my body and disappear into the air. Then I would completely disappear, and my body in the real world would fall to the ground at that moment.
Even silly tiger moaned in fear. My guilt was indescribable. In the end, I had dragged it down and made it lose this gamble…
The process was actually not painful, because it was too fast. I couldn’t describe whether it was a breath of time or less than a second.
Neck, mouth and nose… the power continued to spread, and the buzzing in my ears grew louder and louder. I was really powerless… because at this moment, I actually heard a continuous sound of breaking, ‘crashing’ ‘crashing’ ‘crashing’ like glass under the greatest pressure, finally beginning to shatter… What was this sound? Was it the sound of my soul breaking?
I thought to myself, but in an instant, my vision became blurred, as if I could vaguely see the most hazy mist, layer upon layer of white clouds. Between these mists and clouds, there seemed to be the existence of buildings, but it also seemed that they did not exist… However, there was one feeling that was most distinct, and that was that in these inexplicable sounds that I saw, there was a unique atmosphere that was most awe-inspiring and sacred.
What is it? How could I have such a question in such a difficult situation? But the next moment, an inexplicable force rose up, like a beast that had been caged, finally finding the exit to freedom and rushing out.
The steps of heaven and earth, the steps of the Big Dipper? Do I need to work so hard to accomplish them? I began to mock myself, but what kind of nonsense is this?
This stomping method is completely wrong… How can I forget the stomping method… forget what? Why is the stomping method wrong? I myself began to be baffled!
Then my memory was rapidly flipped, and the shocking red birthmark that once existed in the back of my head, the weak childhood, the ghosts that haunted me, the encounter with the master, the hungry ghost tomb… a sigh full of childishness but also exceptionally old and heavy sounded inexplicably in my ears.
Is this the tribulation I have to endure? This is a rhetorical question, but it is also a sentence with a tone of affirmation. Why am I saying this to myself? I was even more confused.
Sometimes, a person’s thoughts may be faster than light. In that moment, before those inexplicable thoughts disappeared, the force that rose up in the sky was rapidly ‘counterattacking’. In just a moment, it used an inexplicable way to drive away the pressure that was pressing on my body. Wherever it went… my soul began to heal, and it felt like it should have healed in the first place… and it stared even more intently.
The world of thought is related to one’s spiritual awareness. The stronger the spiritual awareness, the more “solid” the world of thought is. This is the fundamental reason why the master dared to walk the world with me, and why the master’s spirit dared to walk the world with me when I was so “weak.”
I always thought that my spiritual awareness was very strong. At least, I have never met anyone stronger than me in my life of wandering. But at this moment, I feel that my spiritual awareness is really not strong. This contrast comes from the self at this moment, because at this moment, my spiritual awareness has inexplicably become at least twice as strong. What kind of concept is this?
My world of thought, like my soul, began to heal rapidly. The originally dark world began to gaze again… The sun was still spinning, but at this time, the power of its rotation and churning was completely within my capacity to bear!
What happened to me?
With a loud bang, the huge star was finally bound by my world of thought, and at that moment it spun and floated rapidly towards the sky of my world of thought… And I was dumbfounded and confused when I was stepping on the gong!
What on earth is going on?
