Chapter 170: Boundless Darkness
The status of a venerable martial artist is extraordinary, and it is extremely difficult to encounter such a master in the secular world. But Lin Zhan didn't know why, his luck was against the sky, and he met two venerable martial artists in just two days.
In the past, there was a fish that even Lin Zhan couldn't see through, and today there is a Zheng Wuji who has a dislike for the Lin family. There were actually at least two high-level masters hidden in a small Heavenly Star Academy, and this situation was much more than Lin Zhan expected.
Lin Zhan originally thought that he had already figured out the game of chess of the Heavenly Star Empire very clearly. But now it seems that the seemingly clear water of the Celestial Star Empire is becoming more and more unfathomable.
Such a situation undoubtedly sounded a wake-up call for Lin Zhan, but Lin Zhan didn't have time to pay attention to these now, because he had to solve the trouble in front of him first.
Lin Zhan calmed down and looked around, and found that in the entire space, except for himself, up and down, left and right, front and back, there was nothing, only darkness.
It is a vast darkness, vast, deep, terrifying, boundless. It was as if the vast world had abandoned themselves, thrown themselves into this darkness, and left themselves to fend for themselves.
In such an environment, it is easy for people to lose themselves and feel extremely lonely and afraid. Moreover, Lin Zhan also found that when he was in this space, the surrounding darkness began to erode his body little by little, as if he wanted to completely assimilate himself into the surrounding darkness.
Lin Zhan believes that as long as there is more and more loneliness and fear in his heart, the speed of being eroded by the darkness will become faster and faster, and if he continues like this, he will eventually be completely assimilated by this darkness and will never be able to turn over.
This is how Zheng Wuji dealt with himself.
No matter how Lin Zhan says, he is the heir of the third generation of the Lin family, and his identity background is special. No matter how jealous Zheng Wuji was of Lin Tianxiao, he would not dare to do anything to Lin Zhan without conclusive evidence, let alone make a move against Lin Zhan in public.
If it is someone else, I can only endure this breath today and talk about it later. But Zheng Wuji, as a venerable martial artist, has too many means that ordinary people can't imagine, and Zheng Wuji can completely use other methods to deal with Lin Zhan.
For example, now, the space that Lin Zhan is in is Zheng Wuji's mobilization of the power of heaven and earth to transform with his own will and perception. Lin Zhan was affected by Zheng Wuji's powerful aura, and his divine soul was forcibly detained here. If Lin Zhan couldn't find a way to rush out of here, his divine soul would be completely assimilated by this darkness, and his body would become a walking corpse.
Even if Lin Zhan was released later, his divine soul would be greatly damaged. And the power of the divine soul is the foundation of a person's cultivation of martial arts. Lin Zhan's soul was damaged, and he would not make any progress in martial arts from now on. Unless he can find a heavenly treasure that nourishes the divine soul, otherwise, Lin Zhan will become a real waste.
This kind of method can only be used by a venerable martial artist who can feel the power of heaven and earth. Others, even if they knew about it, could not have understood it.
This method does not cause any damage to a person's body, but it can fundamentally ruin a person's future and future. Zheng Wuji's choice to use this method to deal with Lin Zhan was obviously deliberate.
If Lin Zhan can't break through this predicament, his life will be ruined here, and he will become a waste person from now on, but the Lin family can't blame Zheng Wuji too much for this.
Because Zheng Wuji did not directly hurt Lin Zhan, it can only be said that Lin Zhan himself was frightened by Zheng Wuji's methods.
At this time, Lin Zhan, who was in a predicament, was carefully observing the space he was in, and his mind was spinning rapidly, figuring out Zheng Wuji's possible thoughts.
As the god of war in his previous life, Lin Zhan naturally understood the wonderful use of the power of heaven and earth. So he didn't wonder that Zheng Wuji used this method to deal with himself, what really surprised him was that the space that Zheng Wuji conjured up with his will was actually a darkness.
This darkness may seem to be lethal, but it is a rather terrifying opponent. Because it attacks the target down to the darkness of man's heart.
Being alone in this endless darkness can easily lead to feelings of loneliness and fear. And in such an environment, once such an emotion is generated, it will continue to spread like crazy grass, constantly eroding a person's spirit and will. Once this situation lasts for a long time, it will leave an indelible shadow in the heart, that is, the demon is planted. He will live in this shadow for the rest of his life.
In the path of martial arts, the soul and talent are of course important, but Lin Zhan values more whether a person has a strong enough will.
If a person does not have the heart of a strong man, no matter how good his talent is, he can only do nothing for the rest of his life. And as long as a person has the heart of a strong man, even if he is an ordinary man, he can slowly climb to the top step by step.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhan couldn't help but have some doubts about Zheng Wuji. Thinking about it carefully, even if what Zheng Wuji said before was true, I am afraid that there are other hidden secrets in it that he has not said.
The darkness that Zheng Wuji prepared for Lin Zhan was not so much a punishment as a test.
Because this darkness was transformed on the basis of Zheng Wuji's will and perception, it didn't take much strength to break through him, just a strong enough will.
And a strong will is the greatest motivation on the path of a person's martial arts.
As long as Lin Zhan can break through this space with his own will, it shows that Lin Zhan has the potential to become a strong man.
Lin Zhan now suspects that this is Zheng Wuji's real purpose.
If Zheng Wuji wants to clean up Lin Zhan, there are many better ways than this. There was no need for him to spend so much effort to detain Lin Zhan's divine soul here.
Moreover, this space is based on Zheng Wuji's will and perception, if he really wants to deal with Lin Zhan, this space cannot be as calm as it is now, there should be more powerful and terrifying means.
These contradictions made Lin Zhan have deep doubts about Zheng Wuji.
Lin Zhan carefully observed the space around him, watching the darkness around him erode his body little by little, and a ray of light burst out in Lin Zhan's eyes.
What Zheng Wuji's thoughts, Lin Zhan doesn't know now. He must find a way to get out of this place now.
This is the first time that Lin Zhan has faced a venerable martial artist head-on since his rebirth, although it is only a confrontation of will and soul, but it is enough for Lin Zhan to have an in-depth understanding of the venerable martial artist in the human world.
Looking at the darkness around him that was slowly eroding him, the corners of Lin Zhan's mouth couldn't help but show a sneer.
If Zheng Wuji chooses to take action directly against Lin Zhan, Lin Zhan's current strength will never be able to resist. But Zheng Wuji chose to use this way to deal with Lin Zhan, but he chose the wrong method.
No matter what Zheng Wuji's purpose is, in the clash of wills and souls, Lin Zhan is absolutely sure that he can win.
The will of the god of war is not something that a mere mortal can defeat.
Lin Zhan suddenly snorted coldly, and his strong will surged out, not only expelling all the darkness that had eroded into Lin Zhan's body, but also turning into a dazzling pillar of light, shooting straight from the top of Lin Zhan's head, blasting into the vast darkness.
This pillar of light stood out in the boundless darkness, and it became the only light in the darkness.
The pillar of light blasted into the darkness without causing the slightest ripple, and it was obvious that this attention alone could not shake the boundless darkness. The whole darkness, except for this pillar of light, there is no other change.
Faced with such a situation, Lin Zhan's heart was as calm as water, and his eyes did not change at all.
In this environment, it is only possible to break through the predicament by sticking to one's heart and constantly bombarding this darkness with a strong will. Once you are affected by the surrounding environment and there is a flaw in your heart, the darkness around you will immediately take advantage of the weakness, seize this flaw, and drag yourself deeper into the darkness.
Lin Zhan's expression remained unchanged, his thoughts turned, his will turned into his will, and a huge golden fist appeared in front of Lin Zhan. Immediately, it crashed into the darkness in front of him.
This space is the embodiment of will and perception. In it, what Lin Zhan thought, then it will appear and turn into Lin Zhan's weapon to fight against this darkness.
As the leader of this space, Zheng Wuji can use similar means to Lin Zhan. The difference between the two is only the strength of the will.
