Sky-Reaching Peak, inside the palace.
Lu An stood in the pillar of light. Although he had opened his eyes, he still couldn't see anything clearly. He couldn't move at all to walk out of the pillar of light. He couldn't do it with his strength, but as long as he could regain his consciousness, he would have succeeded in taking the first step.
The pain of the physical and mental destruction wouldn't stop or weaken. In other words, Lu An had to endure the pain while he tried to sense the power around him. Sensing was an extremely difficult thing to do, not to mention sensing the power of the stars, which wasn't inferior to the power of space. Lu An had never even heard of this before. Normally, one would need to go into seclusion quietly without being disturbed by anyone. Now that he was enduring pain that far exceeded his limit, he still had to gather his senses and analyze them. It was easy to imagine how difficult it was to find an extremely weak sense in the endless pain.
This feeling was like being swept up in an extremely turbulent wave. He couldn't even control his body, but he still had to hold a cup of water steadily to prevent the water from spilling out.
However, no matter how difficult it was, Lu An would never show weakness or retreat. He tried his best to find the difference in his numb senses, making himself more focused, extremely focused!
Feel … Feel!
Since he couldn't see anything clearly, Lu An simply closed his eyes and tried his best to feel the pressure from the outside, feeling the light and power that penetrated his organs.
He first found two directions for himself. One was why this light made him feel pain that exceeded his limit. The other was to try to analyze the attribute of this power.
There was a limit to everything, including perception. For example, if water was too hot, it would evaporate. If a person reached the limit of pain, they would die. However, he didn't die. This was very strange. Moreover, he had Immortal Qi, the power of death, Deep Ice, the Ninth Heaven Sacred Flame, and his understanding of "spirit", so he was extremely sensitive to attributes. Everything in the world had its own attributes. Basically, they could be summed up by the five attributes of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. Except for Immortal Qi, the power of death, and the power of space, it was the same. Of course, except for the "spirit" that he was looking for.
Lu An tried his best to focus on sensing the power in this light. However, after a long time, he still couldn't find the answer to the two questions. He didn't even find a direction to think about.
He couldn't figure out why he was in so much pain, let alone identify the attributes. He even felt that there were all eight basic attributes, but the feeling was very different.
What was going on?
Lu An's heart tightened, but he was not annoyed. If this kind of power could give him an answer in a moment of thought, it would be too simple. However, enduring this kind of pain to comprehend would really slow down the mind by who knows how many times. Questions that could be understood in an instant would take more than ten minutes now.
Lu An continued to think … If it was a pain that exceeded his limit, then he could only think of two scenarios. The first was that the pain he had endured before had not really reached his limit, and the current pain was the peak of his pain. The second possibility was that the light had forcibly changed his body, allowing him to increase his perception of pain and tolerance without dying, resulting in the current situation.
Both of these conjectures were very likely, and he couldn't distinguish them just by relying on his current perception. Therefore, Lu An had to change his train of thought, and that was which was more meaningful for increasing his strength.
Although this light would harm his body, he believed that Lonemoon Alliance Master would not hurt him. Even the Lonemoon Alliance Master had prepared this place for three days. If the Lonemoon Alliance Master wanted to kill someone, even a level-nine Heavenly Master would be suppressed to death by this palace. Therefore, the pain was secondary. The most important thing was to let oneself gain enlightenment.
Then, it was very likely that the reason for this kind of pain that exceeded one's limit was … to forcibly increase one's pain to a level that did not belong to oneself. From the pain, one could find a higher realm or a higher level of power.
Or could it be that … the power of the stars came from pain?!
The appearance of this idea immediately made Lu An's whole body tremble!
Could it be that this pain was the source of the power of the stars?!
With this thought, Lu An immediately felt the pain wholeheartedly. It was completely different from before when he could ignore and endure the pain. When he focused all his attention on the pain, the pain seemed to double and become even more unbearable!
This feeling was like twisting one's divine sense into a ball. It made one tense to the extreme, but one still had to clearly count how many drops of water were dripping down. It was as painful and torturous as torture.
Lu An's body was trembling. Although the trembling was not big, the frequency was very fast. It was so fast that his whole body seemed to have double images. He clenched his fists tightly, desperately trying to feel the pain. However, he could only feel more pain. He really could not find the treasure in the pain.
Just like that, he thought over and over again, looking for the direction of his thoughts and trying over and over again. When Lu An felt that he hadn't been thinking for long and his head hadn't turned much, everything suddenly seemed to stop. Even the pain and pressure in his body suddenly disappeared. Suddenly, he could not support his body at all. He directly collapsed to the ground like a cripple.
Bang!
Lu An fell heavily to the ground. His face was pale and bloodless. His body was still trembling and twitching non-stop. He could not stop at all.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Lu An. It was none other than Lonemoon Alliance Master.
Looking at Lu An who fell to the ground, Lonemoon Alliance Master's eyes turned cold. It was obvious that Lu An did not faint. His fingers were still moving. He even tried to use his arms to support his body to stand up. This was enough to show that he still maintained his self-consciousness.
It was rare.
From the beginning of everything until now, a full two hours had passed. Lu An could do this to show that Lonemoon Alliance Master did not misjudge him.
However, Lu An had completely lost his sense of time. The pain would make his sensitivity to time infinitely elongate, as if a whole day had passed. However, Lu An also knew this. Including the content of his own thoughts, he thought that only about an hour had passed.
"Not bad." Lonemoon Alliance Master said, "He can still be conscious after two hours."
Lu An opened his eyes with difficulty. There was light in front of him. The light just now was so bright that his eyes could not recover their strength. He did not expect that so much time had passed.
In his condition, Lu An could not speak at all in a short time. However, he still forced himself to use his trembling arms to support himself. Little by little, he knelt in the center and slowly stood up.
Seeing Lu An stand up with her own eyes, Lonemoon Alliance Master did not show any emotion. Instead, she asked coldly, "Rest for a while, or continue?"
Lu An's voice was extremely choppy and trembling violently. However, he used the shape of his mouth to express his thoughts clearly.
Continue … continue …
Lonemoon Alliance Master looked at Lu An. A trace of appreciation flashed across her beautiful eyes under the veil hat. However, she still did not show any emotion or praise. She only said lightly, "As you wish."
With that, Lonemoon Alliance Master disappeared directly from the palace.
Lu An did not have time to think about how Lonemoon Alliance Master left. He did not want to think about it either. He took a deep breath and immediately straightened his body as much as possible. He stood in the pillar of light and waited for the pressure and pain to come.
Outside the palace, Lonemoon Alliance Master looked at this scene. A trace of appreciation finally appeared on her beautiful face under the veil hat.
"I don't know if he's really stupid or pretending to be stupid." Lonemoon Alliance Master seemed to be talking to herself. She said softly, "He can also cultivate and realize after leaving the pillar of light. However, the realization will not be as obvious as inside."
However, after talking to herself, Lonemoon Alliance Master did not stay for long. Instead, she left the huge hemisphere and came to the foot of the Sky-Reaching Peak.
The moment she left, the light burst out from the inside of the hemisphere again and went straight to the center!
Boom!!
The heavy pressure once again smashed towards Lu An from all directions. The pillar of light also fell from the sky and hit Lu An's body again. Countless rays of light penetrated Lu An's body. The pain that exceeded the limit appeared again.
Creak!!
Lu An's teeth made a sound as if they were about to break. However, this time, he endured it and did not make a sound!
If he was beaten until he cried out in pain, then he would be making no progress. He would never allow such a thing to happen!
Even if he had to risk his life, he would realize the power of the stars!
