And you … will die.
There was no overly emphatic tone, no threat, and no warning, but it was very real. It was as real as the rising sun hanging clearly in the east.
There were still early birds chirping in the forest, and the small clearing in the forest suddenly became very quiet.
Siffin raised his head and looked at the azure sky above the clearing.
Three days, life and death. If he failed, he wouldn't have the chance to see this sky again. Of course, he could've chosen not to use this method. He was in a hurry to raise his cultivation level just so he could participate in the Soul Selection Meeting in the psyche quadrant. Compared to life and death, the Soul Selection Meeting that was held every year really wasn't a big deal. There was no need to force himself into such a desperate situation.
Or, he could wait a few more days and wait for his injuries to recover a bit before using this method again. He'd be able to gain a few more days in exchange for a greater chance of success.
It wasn't that Siffin didn't have a choice. He could easily avoid this test of life and death. There didn't seem to be any reason for him to take such a great risk. At least, there was no external reason.
What about himself?
"I'll give you one morning to consider. If you've made up your mind, come back here before noon. If you give up, then leave." Chu Min finally said.
The group fell silent as they considered their options. It wasn't just Siffin who had to make up his mind. Morin and Su Tang were only slightly better off than Siffin. Having so many of their senses stripped away, they would also be in a very frantic state. Whether or not they could persevere under such a state and completely connect the dots was equally risky. It was an extraordinary technique, so it naturally came with extraordinary dangers.
Morin silently pushed Siffin away, but Su Tang didn't move.
"I've already made up my mind." Su Tang said with a smile.
"Because I want to become strong! Become strong as soon as possible. "
"Therefore, I can begin right now."
"Alright." Chu Min nodded and didn't say another word. She stepped forward and stopped in front of Su Tang, a ball of spirit power slowly curling up in her right hand. Was it light? Is it Qi? Before he could identify it, Chu Min had already waved her hand. Very quickly, the ball of soul power flashed. Lu Ping, who was at the side, couldn't see which part of Su Tang's body Chu Min was attacking.
However, Su Tang's eyes had already lost their luster at this moment. They were empty and had already lost their sense of direction.
She tilted her head, but it was still very accurately towards Lu Ping.
"Lu Ping, are you there?" she asked.
"I'm here," Lu Ping said.
"I can't see it anymore!" Su Tang smiled. Chu Min raised her hand again and chopped down, as if she was chopping something. Su Tang's world suddenly became quiet.
She listened attentively, but there was no sound. She opened her mouth, but there was no sound.
The Soul of Ming had also been severed. This time, Chu Min did not stop. Her right hand spun rapidly. In an instant, the Soul of Qi and the Soul of Pivot were completely severed. The Soul of Essence was partially preserved. Only the Soul of Strength was left intact.
Su Tang tried to walk, but this time, she couldn't control the direction at all. After three steps, she had already gone astray. She tried to reach out her hand, but she immediately grabbed what she wanted to grab.
Lu Ping held her hand, and Su Tang smiled. She could still smile when her four senses had been taken away.
She nodded. Lu Ping also held her hand and shook it, as if he was nodding.
Su Tang then let go of him, and slowly moved to the side. Her movements quickly became smooth, and she quickly adapted to this state. She even turned around and smiled again, although the direction was wrong and she smiled at a tree. But Chu Min was moved.
She had seen many cultivators of the soul of power who used this method to make a breakthrough. From their faces, she could only see panic, unease, or determination. However, she had never seen a smile, especially a smile that came from the heart. This kind of smile was something that those fellows had never seen after they broke through the Spirit of Strength and regained their four senses. Even though they had succeeded, their joy was still suppressed by this cruel and terrifying state. There were even some who never walked out of this kind of fear. They broke through, but this state became a nightmare that they could not get rid of. It destroyed their willpower, and they became cripples in the end.
But this ten year old girl in front of her, not only did she immediately make a decision after she said this method, she was even smiling in this state. Chu Min could see that this smile was real, and not fake.
She could definitely do it!
Chu Min had never had such confidence in a person before. This determination to support and trust each other was so strong. If it was like this for Su Tang, then what about the other person?
Chu Min looked at Lu Ping. Lu Ping was still looking at Su Tang, and when he felt her gaze, he turned around.
"What about you?" Chu Min suddenly said.
"I also want to become stronger," Lu Ping said calmly and seriously.
"Your state is far more complicated than theirs, and it will be even more difficult to grasp." Chu Min was as straightforward as usual. Without any pause or transition, she began a formal conversation with Lu Ping.
"What should I do?" Lu Ping asked.
Chu Min casually threw something over. Lu Ping caught it and looked. It was a strangely shaped fragment, and he had no idea what it was used for.
"This is the trash you created yesterday," Chu Min said.
Lu Ping was struck dumb. Then, he recalled that the equipment in the sound transmitting room had been destroyed because he had used his soul power improperly. It seemed like they had been made of this material, and now, they had all been reduced to countless pieces.
"Try injecting the Spirit Force in." Chu Min said.
Lu Ping tried it. He already knew where the problem was, but when he carefully guided the Spirit Force in.
Pa …
The fragment in his hand broke. Because the soul power that was channeled in was not strong, the damage was not too serious. However, it still broke in the end.
"Do you know what to do?" Chu Min said.
Lu Ping nodded, and tried to use the Spirit Force again.
Pa …
One fragment became two, and now there were three.
"There are many more over there." Chu Min pointed to the other side. Lu Ping looked over. There were large and small fragments piled up like a mountain. He did not know when Chu Min had collected them.
"If you can do it, then come find me." Chu Min said. She was clearly not a teacher who would teach by example.
"Yes." Lu Ping turned around and walked towards the pile of trash. He glanced at Su Tang. She was not far away and was trying out all sorts of actions.
Let's start together!
Lu Ping picked up a fragment. He was looking forward to it.
All this time, he had been relying on himself to explore. He had searched for some information in Zhenfeng College, but he could not find anything that could help him. His situation was too special.
The microscopic Wen Gecheng was the first person who made him feel the value of guidance. But regretfully, he met Wen Gecheng a bit too late, and his current stage had already surpassed the scope of Wen Gecheng's help. Even when Guo Youdao sent them to Amaterasu College, he still instructed Lu Ping to rely on himself.
He could only rely on himself for this path …
Lu Ping had enough determination, but he could not help but feel a bit emotional. In fact, he was quite envious of the students of the college. Under the clear guidance of the teachers, there were classmates who could compare notes with each other. Lu Ping had also dreamt a few times that there were fellows who were also restricted by the Soul Lock Technique, exchanging their experiences with him.
But now, he at least had a direction to guide him. This made him feel that he was no longer just fumbling around. That lonely path of cultivation suddenly had a powerful figure watching him from behind.
He was really looking forward to it!
Lu Ping injected the Spirit Force. Pa, the fragment in his hand shattered again. This time, it was probably because he was too excited that it shattered more violently. There was even a small cut on his hand.
Lu Ping didn't care about it. He picked up another leaf and started to try again happily.
