Lu Ping stared blankly.
As expected, the North Style Academy had a different response. He had only been here for a few days, and he was already faced with the same problem. These people did not see the actual form of the chains he had forced out, nor did they have any direct physical contact with him, but they were able to sense the customization ability on his body.
At this moment, Lu Ping immediately believed that Chen Chu's "senior brother" was referring to the senior brother of Alioth Peak. Huo Ying was the former head disciple of Alioth Peak, the number one disciple of Li Yaotian of Alioth Star, famous for his customization ability. Although it seemed to be a thing of the past, although he claimed that he did not have long to live, his ability was still there. He was able to sense the existence of customization ability on Lu Ping's body without batting an eyelid.
But …
Lu Ping hesitated for a moment. The person who asked him before was Chen Chu, and he frankly said that he could not say. This time, it was Huo Ying whom even Chen Chu had to address as senior brother. He looked at Huo Ying, but Huo Ying did not look at him. He only said indifferently, "Why can't I tell someone who is about to die?"
"Cough." Sun Yingsheng coughed and pointed at Zi Mu and Ying Xiao, "You two, come with me."
"Ah?" The two were stunned for a moment. They were at a crucial moment, and he actually asked them to leave? However, the two of them immediately reacted. Sun Yingsheng wanted to take the two of them away.
"Let's go!" Sun Yingsheng not only said, but also moved. He dragged the two away, one in each hand. Zi Mu was fine, but Ying Xiao was not someone who would submit, even if he had just been beaten up. But when Sun Yingsheng grabbed him, he could not do anything and was dragged away.
Bang! The door closed, and Zi Mu and Ying Xiao were both dragged into Sun Yingsheng's room. Only Lu Ping and Huo Ying were left in the courtyard. Huo Ying didn't rush him. She just quietly waited there as if she was asleep.
"Ecstasy Soul Lock," Lu Ping finally said.
Whether Huo Ying was about to die or not, it was not important in his eyes. However, Huo Ying had helped him, and it could even be said that he had saved him. Even if he didn't mean it, Lu Ping still appreciated it very much. In his eyes, this sickly former head disciple of Yuheng Peak was a trustworthy person.
Ecstasy Locking Soul.
Upon hearing this name, Huo Ying, who had been calm all this while, could not help but open her eyes. She stared at Lu Ping for a while.
"You're not joking?" he asked after a while.
"I'm not very good at joking," Lu Ping said.
"Who used it on you?" Huo Ying asked. In fact, he was already thinking of a name in his mind. Ecstasy, a sixth-level custom-type ability. The number of people who could use this ability could be counted on one hand in the entire continent.
However, Lu Ping shook his head. "I don't know."
"You don't know?" Huo Ying's name was already listed, and all that was left was for Lu Ping to choose his answer. But this was the answer he got. Surprised, he couldn't help but sit up straighter.
"For as long as I can remember, it's been like this," Lu Ping said.
"For as long as you can remember?" Huo Ying was shocked. For him to remember, how young did he have to be? At that age, he probably hadn't even started cultivating, yet he had to use the Ecstasy Locking Soul Confinement. How much hatred did he have? Moreover, looking at Lu Ping's current age, it had been more than ten years since that time. This Ecstasy Locking Soul Confinement ability was still effective? No … … it wasn't completely effective. If it was completely effective, then this kid would be like an ordinary person. How could he have passed the Newcomer's Trial? Wait … … the Newcomer's Trial this time was hosted by Yuheng Peak. Could it be that the teacher saw that he had the Ecstasy Locking Soul Confinement ability, so he specially let him into the Academy?
Huo Ying was a custom-type expert. Towards Lu Ping and his Ecstasy Locking Soul Confinement ability, he would only be more shocked. His thoughts were all over the place, and he sat there in a daze, not saying anything.
"Is there nothing else?" Lu Ping waited for a while. Seeing that Huo Ying didn't ask anymore, he couldn't help but ask.
Only then did Huo Ying come back to his senses. He realized that his thoughts were all over the place. There were some things that he hadn't confirmed yet. He had followed his train of thought and started to speculate. At this time, he came back to his senses. After a while, his gaze returned to Lu Ping.
"Let's continue." Huo Ying said.
"What else do you want to know?" Lu Ping asked.
If he had only casually asked when he sensed that Lu Ping's condition was strange, then at this time, Huo Ying was really paying attention to him. His eyes, which had always made people feel that he was on the verge of death, actually showed some light.
"First, tell me how you passed the Newcomer's Trial." Huo Ying said.
Thus, Lu Ping began to talk. Huo Ying listened quietly, but he was calculating in his heart. He wasn't in a hurry to ask. Because the situation was quite close to what he had guessed. Although Lu Ping was Ecstasy Locking Soul Confinement, he could still use his soul power.
Until the end, when he heard that punch.
Huo Ying began to stare blankly again.
That punch, overturned his previous guesses.
Whether it was the precision of being able to sense the presence of the caster in the Vanishing End, or the method of using the Vanishing End as a medium to attack, everything was beyond Huo Ying's knowledge. He raised his hand and pressed his temples. He really was having a headache.
"Alright, next question." Huo Ying said.
"Hmm?" Lu Ping waited.
"What realm are you in?" Huo Ying asked.
"Six Spirits Connected."
"Hmm?" Huo Ying heard it, but he didn't think he heard it clearly.
"Six Spirits Connected." Lu Ping said again. He knew that everyone couldn't accept this answer, but he couldn't do anything about it. It was the truth.
Huo Ying's eyes widened, and he stared at Lu Ping.
This kid said that he wasn't good at joking. Looking at his expression, it didn't seem like a joke.
Then, what was this? Could it be that this was the truth?
Six Spirits Connected?
Huo Ying stared at Lu Ping for a long time. This time, Lu Ping didn't interrupt. He didn't say anything. He knew that this information needed a lot of time to digest.
Huo Ying put his hands on the armrests of the bamboo chair and straightened his body. He seemed to be getting ready to stand up, but his body leaned forward, and with a cry, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Sigh …" Lu Ping didn't know what to say. It was certain that he was stunned when he heard the answer, but it was also the first time he saw someone spit out blood after hearing it.
He didn't say anything. He walked to the wall and picked up the tools that he and Zi Mu used to clean up the blood stains. He quietly got to work. Huo Ying didn't say anything. He just watched in silence.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh … The only sound left in the courtyard was the sound of the broom scraping the ground. The dust was blown up and covered the blood stains that Huo Ying spat out layer after layer.
After a while, the blood stains were cleaned up. Lu Ping looked at Huo Ying.
"Next time, you really have to vomit somewhere else. Otherwise, there will be a hole here," he said seriously.
