Chapter 45: The Road to Victory
"The road to the soul, walk with the heart, the ups and downs of the world, are all nothing. ”
With Yue Yi's fearless step into the Land of Soul Snatching, the voice of the Purple Soul slowly sounded in his body, and when Yue Yi's entire body entered the Land of Soul, the voice in his body slowly dissipated, completely losing his sense with the Purple Soul.
After entering the road of seizing the soul, Yue Yi's eyes were quickly surrounded by a vast white field, the white mist was extremely pure, not only completely isolated from vision, but even taste, smell, hearing and touch were useless.
In the white expanse, without a trace of darkness, without a trace of sound, the whole world, as if chaos had just opened, as if even it could not feel its existence, in this indescribable environment, it would be the most painful torture, as powerless as fluttering with the wind, not knowing where the road was.
Surrounded by white mist, Yue Yi didn't expect such an environment to exist, which subverted his perception of this world, at first he thought that it was like an ordinary road, just need to go to the end, and be careful of the strange beasts or man-eating plants lurking around, but now this environment, even if there is no interference from foreign objects, is even more terrifying than these.
Some people may be indifferent to the sound of thousands of troops killing, but the invisible and silent environment is the easiest to arouse the waves in the heart, easy to make people fearful, Yue Yi raised his feet to move forward, but found that his body did not feel anything, it seemed that he did not raise his feet to move forward, in this white space, it seemed to move, and it seemed that he did not move, he didn't know if he was moving forward at all.
People tend to be afraid of the unknown, and the same is true for Yue Yi, his heart suddenly panicked, and he wanted to communicate with the purple soul in his body, but he couldn't get in touch, thinking that he had been isolated by the power of this world.
Thinking of what the purple soul said before entering, Yue Yi gradually calmed down, in this environment, as long as the mentality is not right, it is enough to drive a normal person crazy. But he knew in his heart that the more he was at this time, the more he had to stop his heart, otherwise once he panicked, he would be lost in this white mist forever, unable to extricate himself, and this kind of torture was more terrifying than death.
I don't know what kind of courage those people who can collect the Snatching Grass have, they can collect the Snatching Grass in this white mist space, the growth environment of this Snatching Grass is too strange, but why don't you see this white mist space in the image of the Eternal Spirit Tree? Yue Yi only has consciousness left now, and he has been thinking about these questions in his heart, but there is no answer.
There was no feeling in the body, Yue Yi could only use his consciousness to tell himself, forward, and then forward, in this white mist space, Yue Yi felt that he was drifting, and he could only rely on his consciousness to think about problems and endure this inhuman loneliness......
Yue Yi couldn't feel his legs walking, only his consciousness told him that he was moving forward, in the white mist space, time became incomparably long, a figure, aimlessly moving forward in this white mist space, never stopped walking, and would not stop walking.
Here, time seemed to stand still, and Yue Yi felt that time had passed for a long, long time, maybe ten days and a half months, maybe a year or two, and gradually began to question whether he was moving forward, or if he had been standing still for so long.
Because after a long time, Yue Yi found that he would not be tired at all, if he was really moving forward, his physical strength should be consumed, but his consciousness told him that he had been moving forward for a long time, so why didn't he feel tired?
Yue Yi gradually lost his concept of time, in this long and endless white mist space, he roared, feared, despaired, compared to the outside world, this may be the most terrible prison in the world, helpless, only consciousness proves that you still exist, but only consciousness can produce these negative emotions. For example, a person falls into the abyss, but finds that he has been falling and has never been able to land.
This fear will gradually intensify over time, until despair and collapse will reveal that death is actually the happiest enjoyment.
Yue Yi experienced despair and collapse again and again, but he still never stopped, and kept telling himself with his consciousness that the road soon came to an end, and he did not stay where he was, he had no sense of direction, and he was afraid that once he stopped, he would choose to go back to the way he came when he got up again, which was the most painful.
For the first time, he realized that he was so vulnerable, and until then, he had always considered himself a strong and optimistic person, who had never been timid and unstoppable. But now he realized that he was so small, and there was no interference from any external objects around him, but he was still panicking to the extreme, which had to be said to be an irony.
Time seems to stand still, and it seems as if a hundred years have passed. Yue Yi's face gradually changed from confusion at the beginning, and then it was replaced by tenacity, and now he gradually became vicissitudes, and in the end, he almost forgot his existence, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
He suddenly found this kind of enjoyment, he had hoped that he could spend every day quietly when he was tortured by Ziyan in Araki City, which was also the reason why he was able to endure Ziyan's burning and persevere, he wanted to let himself enjoy a few more moments of quiet, but then life became normal, and when he stepped into this environment again, it had become a kind of fear.
Since Yue Yi has gained strength, from the initial competition in the ring, to the cultivation of desolate skills, and then the desert trip to fight mercenaries, hunting sand pythons, chasing and killing night spiders, catching ghosts, pit leaf army, killing giant scorpions, breaking illusions, breaking into mazes, and searching for medicinal materials. Thinking of this, Yue Yi suddenly felt sincerely tired, the lonely environment at the moment, for him, was undoubtedly pursuing a lot of things.
The years are quiet, and it takes time to enjoy them.
Gradually, putting aside all the negative emotions, he suddenly thanked the Eternal Spirit Tree for giving him a lonely environment, so that he could have plenty of time to breathe these days, and now for him, whether he was moving forward or not, it didn't matter, the important thing was to let himself enjoy enough quiet first.
"In the white mist, I comprehend the true meaning of snatching the soul, and the snatching is nothingness!"
In the white mist world, Yue Yi's consciousness quietly spread, and that tireless figure finally stopped.
Just when Yue Yi stopped, on the right side of the white mist world, darkness suddenly appeared, it seemed that the darkness was followed by a normal one, it seemed that the Soul Snatching Grass was behind the darkness, as long as he entered this darkness, he would be able to stay away from this space and get the herb he wanted.
Yue Yi came to the edge of the darkness, he looked at the darkness that he hadn't seen for a long time, and in his empty purple eyes, there was suddenly a hint of enlightenment, and a plain smile appeared on the face full of vicissitudes and tenacity.
"It's been more than a hundred years inside, it's just a day outside, the road is born, and the road to the soul is nothing!"
Yue Yi chuckled, and there was a wisp of fluctuation in his consciousness again, there was actually the vicissitudes of reincarnation for a hundred lifetimes, he did not choose to step into the darkness, but his heart turned to the light, and he continued to walk the road he had not finished.
As Yue Yi turned to leave, the darkness behind him gradually disappeared, and the world was filled with white mist again.
I don't know how long it took for a long time, this white mist gradually thinned, and gradually, Yue Yi began to regain all his senses, the front was no longer covered by the white mist, and he could clearly see the road under his feet, and not far ahead, there seemed to be a white herb growing quietly.
Yue Yi moved his limbs, and found that he could already feel the presence of his body, and immediately the corners of his mouth rose, and when he looked back, the white mist behind him had completely disappeared, and a straight path appeared in front of his eyes.
"It's ridiculous that I've been moving forward, and I'm still questioning whether I'm standing still. ”
Yue Yi laughed at himself, he was suddenly very glad to have this experience. This road to devotion is also really magical, and after this trial, it has also made his heart more tenacious and mature, and it seems that he has grown a lot.
Not far away, I think it should be the snatching grass, since I have seen the snatching grass, it means that I have succeeded.
"That's right, being able to go through the path of seizing the soul will be of great help to your cultivation in the future. The purple soul's voice sounded in his body, and his words were full of appreciation.
In the road of seizing the soul, although Yue Yi did not feel the existence of the purple soul, but the purple soul could know Yue Yi's every move, after this guy experienced panic and despair, in the end it actually became a kind of enjoyment, this kind of heart, had to make him admire, but Yue Yi didn't know that this reluctance grass actually grew in the most ordinary environment, and this white mist environment was supposed to be some gifts from the Eternal Spirit Tree.
"Help?"
Yue Yi clenched his fists and found that his strength had improved a little, and he was immediately a little surprised.
"Hehe, sometimes cultivation is not just blindly absorbing the desolate qi, the breakthrough in the mind is also a kind of cultivation, you can get out of the road of seizing the soul, it is also a kind of growth, so it is a natural breakthrough. Seeing this, Purple Soul said slowly.
"I see, I didn't expect to get out of this path of courage and improve my strength, but I inherited a love from the Eternal Spirit Tree, and it seems that I will work hard to help it break through the seal in the future." Yue Yi smiled slightly, and the breakthrough in strength also made him overjoyed, completely forgetting the previous experience of being tortured by the white mist.
Yue Yi raised the soles of his feet, strolled to the Soul Snatching Grass, carefully picked it off, and then sighed lightly: "Soul Snatching Grass, in order to pick you, I have experienced unprecedented loneliness, and then, there is still the last Soul Condensation Flower." ”
Then he turned to look the way he came, only this time there was no white fog in the way.
