Xiao Bin was terrified. He did not understand what Wei Huo meant. Was he planning to cripple his Epic cultivation? Xiao Bin nodded.
Xiao Bin was very hesitant. It was easy for him to give up power, but it was extremely difficult for him to give up the strength that he had obtained with great difficulty.
The Epic stage that Xiao Bin had reached was not the real Epic stage. Due to various reasons, he had obtained the system's help and entered the Epic stage easily. A purple soul gem had condensed in his body.
However, that was meaningless. Not only was he weaker than a real Epic creature, but his potential had also been cut off, preventing him from reaching a higher realm.
For example, the Legendary creatures created by the system seemed powerful, but it was impossible for them to enter the Mythical stage. This was because they could not comprehend the Dao. At the same time, they could not use all sorts of mysterious abilities. They were purely sandbags with domains.
That was why Wei Huo was asking him if he was willing to cripple the Epic stage. However, Wei Huo did not say anything. He wanted to test his eldest disciple and see if he was a person who could let go!
Xiao Bin hesitated for a long time before kowtowing to Wei Huo three times. He then said, "My creation was given to me by Master. Master has the right to take it back. I once said that if I come out of seclusion, I will not hesitate to climb a mountain of knives and enter a sea of flames. If Master plans to cripple my cultivation, please do it!"
Before Wei Huo could say anything, Zhou Song asked in shock, "You're the City Lord of City A. You're one of the only three Epic-ranked humans. Are you willing to cripple your Epic stage?"
This was unbelievable. Zhou Song could not believe it, as Xiao Bin did not know the truth. He did not know that the Epic stage was a fake realm, but he was willing to give it up for the oath he had made.
Wei Huo nodded. He did not find it strange. In fact, even if Xiao Bin had chosen not to give up on the Epic stage, he would not have interfered. Everyone had to choose their own path and not be responsible for their own choices. Wei Huo had understood this when Lu Ren and Long Tao had left the Rose Manor.
Wei Huo stood up and waved his hand to remove the Thinking Lock in Xiao Bin's mind. The Thinking Lock shattered and turned into mental strength to nourish Xiao Bin's soul.
However, after the Thinking Lock was removed, Xiao Bin was stunned. Soon, endless sealed memories appeared in his mind. His eyes kept flickering as his brain kept accepting these memories.
Finally, he stood up abruptly and retreated until he hit the wall. After that, his condition improved a little.
As the City Lord, he had come into contact with many players. He had more sealed memories than Zhou Song, so his reaction was more intense.
Gradually, Xiao Bin understood something. The reason why Zhou Song didn't understand was because he didn't have much contact with the players. However, Xiao Bin quickly understood. Combining his memories with the players' comments, everything appeared in his mind.
"So, this is a game …"
Xiao Bin mumbled to himself. Slowly, he understood what was going on with his Epic stage. He also understood why Wei Huo had asked that question.
Wei Huo said, "The Epic stage is a very crucial stage compared to the Daoist Foundation Establishment stage. One needs to travel the world, see all sorts of things in the world, and experience the joys and sorrows of life. After a long time, one can advance to the Epic stage. The more stable one is on this path, the longer one will be on the path ahead!"
Xiao Bin knelt down again. "Disciple understands!"
Wei Huo pointed with his finger and Xiao Bin grunted. Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. The soul gem in his body shattered and turned into countless nutrients to nourish his spirit. However, his realm had fallen to the half-step Epic realm. Wei Huo nodded.
Wei Huo took out another Epic-ranked soul gem and refined the impurities in it before handing it to Xiao Bin. "If you encounter an emergency, use the mental strength in this soul gem. This is enough for you to enter the Epic stage in a short time, but you can't use it to increase your cultivation level. You can't rush the Epic stage.
Xiao Bin nodded in agreement.
Wei Huo made him sit on a chair and said, "Xiao Bin, tell me in detail about the dream you mentioned before. Don't leave out any details!"
Xiao Bin had once had a prophetic dream. This dream had warned him not to reveal his name. That was why Xiao Bin and the other two had used fake names. They had used the homonyms of Soldier, Passerby, and Extra.
Wei Huo had heard of this dream before, but he had not asked for Xiao Bin's real name. He had not cared about it back then, but when he had experienced the seventh level of Kunlun Mountain, he had realized that this prophetic dream was extraordinary!
If anyone who did not know the truth entered the City of Law on the seventh level, even if they were at the peak of the Legendary stage, they would have to abide by the law as long as their names were recorded in the notebook. If they violated the law, they would definitely die unless they had equipment that could resist the Rule of Death.
Wei Huo still had the Rule-level Death Notebook with him. This was a true strategic weapon. One page could kill a Legendary creature of the same level. He could use five pages with all his mental strength. One page of a Legendary creature created by the system might be able to kill 10 of them.
Given Wei Huo's current mental strength, even if all the Legendary creatures created by the system in the Northern Continent came, he would only need to tear a few pages of the Death Notebook.
This notebook was very terrifying. If the staff who had come to register had not mistaken his name, he would not have been able to obtain this notebook so easily.
That was why Wei Huo guessed that the purpose of the prophetic dream with a warning effect was to allow Xiao Bin to pass the seventh level easily. Perhaps Xiao Bin had gone to Kunlun Mountain in the future and been stuck at the seventh level for too long. He had consumed a lot of his lifespan and caused something irreversible to happen. That was why he had used this method to send a warning to the past.
This was a warning from the future. Perhaps it was not just a warning about not using his real name. Perhaps there were other things as well. That was why Wei Huo took this dream seriously.
Xiao Bin did not dare not answer Wei Huo's question. However, he needed to recall carefully. This dream had affected him deeply. He also remembered that he could not reveal his real name at all times. That was why he did not forget too many details of the dream.
He recalled for a long time before saying, "This dream was probably when I was 17. I remember that I was still in school. It was a Sunday, but I woke up very early that day. It was precisely because of the abnormality of not going to school on Sundays that I remember it more clearly. After I woke up that day, I could not fall asleep. I thought about this dream carefully and recorded it in the memo on my phone."
Xiao Bin started recounting his dream as he recalled. As too much time had passed, he had to make connections. That was why he talked about many things that were not related to the dream. Finally, he started recounting the dream.
