"Grade Eight Spring Waterfall, Soulless Waterfall."
"The first mission is to find the Soulless Man."
The voice sounded. Lin Feng wasn't surprised.
If the Grade Nine Spring Waterfall was the basic Hundred Waterfalls, then the Grade Eight Spring Waterfall was the next level. Not only were the punishments more terrifying, but the requirements for the martial artist's strength were also higher. But at the same time, if he could complete the mission, the reward would be very generous.
He had benefited a lot that day.
But …
"Why is there no time limit?" Lin Feng was puzzled.
Not only was there no time limit, but there was also no mention of the punishment.
It was extremely strange.
In an instant —
Lin Feng's vision blurred and he entered an illusory "water world."
There were all kinds of buzzing sounds in his ears, making his heart tremble. Frowning slightly, Lin Feng's eyes brightened. He suddenly felt that his Life Soul was under great pressure. If he still had the Vast Star Pupil and Vast Star Pupil, he could easily resist it. But now, he didn't have either.
He could only rely on his Life Soul, which wasn't too strong, to resist it.
"Fortunately, my Life Soul is protected by the Phoenix Life Chart," Lin Feng thought to himself.
He had two Life Souls. The reason why his original Life Soul was "strong" was because of the Vast Star Pupil. Now that the Vast Star Pupil was asleep, it was like a tiger without claws and teeth. Its power was greatly reduced. But there was no other way. Since he was here, he might as well take things as they came.
"The Soulless Man …" Lin Feng muttered softly, his eyes flashing.
Just like before, the Hundred Waterfalls experience didn't give him any hints. He could only rely on himself.
Where was the so-called Soulless Man?
There was no clue at all.
"Let's go around first," Lin Feng decided.
There were many things that one wouldn't know until one did it. When he completed the three experiences in the Hundred Waterfalls, he slowly found clues by accident.
…
Whoosh! It was extremely fast.
Lin Feng's eyes burned. There were three paths in front of him.
"Where to?" Lin Feng was slightly stunned. This choice was a little difficult at this moment.
Because it had just begun, he didn't know anything.
"Let's take a look at all three." Lin Feng didn't hesitate for too long.
His figure was like a bolt of lightning as he dashed into the first passageway. The surrounding environment did not change much as the dense water element covered the entire area. Lin Feng frowned as the buzzing in his ears became even more intense. The pressure on his soul was even stronger than before.
"The pressure on my Life Soul has doubled," Lin Feng muttered to himself.
He didn't stay for too long. He immediately dashed out and entered the second tunnel.
"Hmm?" Lin Feng's eyes lit up.
Here, the pressure was undoubtedly much lighter. Although it was still 50% higher than the outside, it was much less than the pressure in the first passage. Lin Feng flew out again and quickly entered the third path. His heart was much calmer.
The pressure did not increase!
The third tunnel seemed to be the 'safest' tunnel.
"The greater the pressure on my Life Spirit, the less time I have to find the Soulless Person," Lin Feng thought to himself.
The first two passageways were obviously not suitable now.
"I'll take this one." Lin Feng nodded.
Without thinking too much, Lin Feng dashed into the third tunnel like a bolt of lightning.
Whoosh! Light flashed.
…
Soon, he ran into a 'water warrior.'
It was a warrior with a body similar to that of a human. His entire body was made of transparent water element. On his forehead was the brand of a constellation. It was in the shape of a water snake. Just like the warriors in the Water Curtain Cave were all Water Snake Constellations, so were these water warriors.
When they reached the Star Lord level, they must have awakened their constellations.
However, they were only Star Lords.
"Ten consecutive fireballs!" Lin Feng's eyes lit up. He didn't stop for a moment.
The fireballs formed by the Fire of Rebirth were more than enough to deal with these ordinary enemies.
Although the Fire of Devouring was powerful, it wasn't as inexhaustible as the Fire of Rebirth. The Burning Life Astrolabe was the same as the other four Earth Astrolabes. It had a limit. Although the recovery speed was good, it couldn't compare to the Fire of Rebirth.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Rumble!"
The Rebirth Fireball directly killed the eight Water Warriors who were blocking the way.
With the power of a Star Lord level 9, Lin Feng was indeed unstoppable.
Pa! Pa!
The water warriors disappeared and turned into crystal water droplets.
Lin Feng smiled faintly and dashed through. The water droplets' energy was instantly absorbed and refined. Inside his body, the Water Life Astrolabe shone. Although the energy of each water droplet was very weak, it could accumulate and eventually form a mountain.
…
…
Fifteen minutes later.
Lin Feng was in a dilemma again.
In front of him, there was another three passageways that were almost identical.
"Still 100% amplification, 50% amplification, and the same." Lin Feng frowned. This time, he didn't make a decision immediately.
He had just walked through a complete passageway!
There was nothing special.
Other than the absorption of the water droplets' energy, he didn't feel any clues.
Should he choose the third passageway?
Lin Feng frowned and fell into deep thought.
Luck was important, but blindly relying on luck was what a fool would do.
"If there are three paths in front of us, there will be no end to them. The number of forks will only increase." Lin Feng thought to himself.
There must be a pattern in all of this!
He just hadn't found it yet.
…
He wasn't in a hurry.
This time, Lin Feng stayed where he was.
His eyes were deep as he kept thinking about the so-called soulless person.
Where was he?
He must be on one of the passageways.
But the problem was that he didn't have any clues.
"The strangest thing is, why is there no time limit or punishment for this mission?" Lin Feng was confused. He felt like he had entered a maze. He vaguely felt something, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
After all, he had experienced the Hundred Falls once and knew its process well.
It seemed random, but it must be hidden in a place he couldn't see.
"No time limit. Does that mean I can keep searching?"
"What's the point?"
Lin Feng could not make up his mind. The pressure around him surged towards his Life Spirit.
But it wasn't an attack. It was just an influence. It didn't matter how long he stayed. It was like hitting a rock with an egg. Unless it reached a certain level, nothing would happen.
Unless …
"The pressure is increasing!" Lin Feng's eyes lit up.
His eyes suddenly widened, as if he had suddenly understood something.
"No, the pressure on the soul will increase if I stay in the same place for too long!" Lin Feng clenched his fist.
He pondered for a full ten minutes in this place. The pressure on his Life Spirit was slightly different from when he had just arrived.
"Wrong. It's not that the pressure on the soul will increase if I stay in the same place for too long," Lin Feng suddenly realized.
"It's that the longer I stay in this Soulless Waterfall —"
"The greater the pressure!"
Lin Feng was completely enlightened.
He finally understood why there was no time limit or punishment.
Because there was no time limit at all!
As time passed, the pressure on the soul would increase layer by layer until his soul couldn't withstand the powerful pressure and completely collapsed. What would the collapse of the soul bring? If he didn't have a pair of souls, he would die and become a fool.
This was the most direct and severe punishment.
Wait!
Lin Feng clapped his hands, his eyes shining.
"A soulless person, as the name suggests, has lost his soul!"
"Why did he lose his soul?"
Like him, he lost his resistance as time passed?
Or …
"I think I understand." Lin Feng's eyes lit up.
…
…
Turn back!
Turn back the way he came.
There was no hesitation. Since he had thought it through, there was no need to be conflicted.
Knowing that there was a tiger in the mountain, he still walked towards it!
"He lost his soul because he entered the area with the strongest pressure." Lin Feng clenched his fists.
The first path!
The pressure on the soul multiplied!
If he encountered a fork in the road, he would take the first path.
In this Soulless Waterfall, the greater the pressure on the soul, the higher the possibility of him finding the soulless person! Perhaps, he wasn't 100% sure, but he had to take a gamble. Lin Feng's eyes were bright and determined.
He believed in his own judgment!
…
Swoosh! His figure was like lightning.
Time was extremely precious here.
That was because the pressure on the life soul would increase after a period of time.
And the most basic manifestation was that in every path, the 100% amplification effect would be even more terrifying! The longer he delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be for him. Lin Feng flew forward, the Flame of Rebirth in his hand almost never stopping. Everywhere it passed, it destroyed everything in its path, sweeping everything in its path.
He was unstoppable!
"Bear with it." Lin Feng gritted his teeth.
After passing through the fork in the road, the amplification increased by 100% again and again.
To the life soul, this was an intense and terrifying pressure. His heart seemed to have wavered. Lin Feng's eyes were blurred. The lack of Star Sky Eyes and Star Sky Eyes had a huge impact on his soul. If not for his extremely strong willpower, he would have collapsed long ago.
But …
How could it be that easy?
"Got it!" Lin Feng's eyes lit up instantly.
After passing through five forks in the road, he finally entered a unique path ahead.
It was as if a straight path had finally appeared in a maze. This was clearly a signal, a special signal that told him —
The end was right ahead!
…
Swoosh! In the path, a majestic pressure whizzed over.
Lin Feng's eyes widened as he gritted his teeth and shuttled through the path frantically.
He was so close!
His body staggered slightly.
But Lin Feng could still hold on.
"Fortunately, I reacted fast enough." Lin Feng felt lucky.
Although he made a wrong choice the first time, he corrected himself quickly. Otherwise, with every second wasted, the pressure on the soul would increase. It might seem insignificant, but after the 100% amplification from the five forks in the road, it wasn't a simple accumulation.
Sometimes, even the slightest deviation could cost one's life.
Swoosh! Lin Feng shot out like a sharp arrow.
His eyes lit up, and he was instantly excited.
In front of him, there was a light figure.
"That's it!" Lin Feng was overjoyed.
The person who lost his soul!
