Chapter 17: The Final Challenge

The burly man in black: "As long as you say you want to give up, you can return to the original, otherwise you can only continue to taste, and it will be more exciting in the later stage!"

I "Please... Please... Please continue".

Hard-mouthed is my characteristic, and sometimes other people's blows are the best way to provoke a certain kind of agitation. Even if I can't speak, I still speak hard.

The burly man in black: "That's good! I can still speak, it looks like I can give you a boost!"

"Ah......h This time it was only my screams that responded to him.

The man in black behind him: "Give up!" His Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher is a kind of martial art that even ghosts will be afraid of, and only a special physique can be cultivated in the world. He has only used the power of ten foxes now, and if he really uses the power of a hundred foxes, your soul will hurt."

Me: "I... No... Yes... Put... Abandon... of...".

The burly man in black: "It looks good! You can still talk! Come on, come on, give you a taste of the power of a hundred foxes as you wish."

"Ahh Yes... Yes... ......My eyes widened, my teeth gritted, and my face was full of hideousness. It hurts so much, it hurts to the depths of my soul, and it seems that the man in black didn't lie to me. Let me scream several times in a row, hoping that the screams will share my pain.

But the pain is only getting worse, and there is no feeling of sharing it out, is this really the limit of what people can hurt? I remember that the earth divides pain into 12 levels, is this the highest level of pain belonging to ordinary people? So how many levels of pain is my pain? 15 or 50? I don't know, no one has tested it like this!

The burly man in black: "Hehe, can you still speak?" Oh, I advise you not to try, or you will bite off your tongue!"

Me: "I... Ho Ke... In order to... Target... Ho... Ho ho".

The pain came from the depths of my soul, and I spoke with a dry throat of 'ho-ho-ho'. But as soon as he finished speaking, a force was transmitted from the body, and there seemed to be a voice in his ears: the soul moved lightly, the body was put together, the spirit was separated, and the body was relaxed.

The voice is very soft, it seems to be there or not, I don't know if it's a hallucination. But my mind heard it so clearly that it felt like it was really a hallucination. But as I slowly recalled according to this line of thought, my body and soul actually proceeded according to this line of thought, and the pain slowly began to weaken.

The burly man in black: "What's going on?"

Feeling my screams, his cultivation weakened, and he didn't think I was faint. If the pain reaches a certain limit, it is true that you will faint, but if the pain has far exceeded this limit, even if you faint, you will be woken up by the pain again. But how could it be that the pain was subduing when I looked at me?

The man in black behind him also felt that something was wrong, why didn't there be a scream? He knew this 'Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher' very well, and the introduction just now was not an exaggeration at all, but it looked like I was asleep, and there was no pain at all. It seems to be lying in the warm quilt and sleeping peacefully.

Hooded Black: "No... It's not going to hang up, is it?"

Of course not, both of them could feel that the life force in my body was not only not weakening, but increasing. But because of this, the two black-clad coaches don't understand very much, this has never happened!

The man in black behind him: "He... He seems... I'm comprehending something again, and then my brain can't handle it a little bit."

The two black-clad coaches smiled a little bitterly, what is the situation? In such a painful situation, there is still time to comprehend something. This person is really wonderful, but it is indeed extraordinary, you know, the burly man in black is a master of extorting confessions by torture! He can comprehend such a cruel punishment, it seems that he is a person with a high level of understanding.

Burly man in black: "Do you want to remove it"?

The burly black-clothed coach looked at his leader and asked the leader a little helplessly. After all, it seems that your moves are useless!

The leading black-clothed coach shook his head, then also fell into thought, and finally said: "Let him wake up and then withdraw it! I also want to know if he will continue to be in unbearable pain after waking up, or if he is no longer afraid of your 'Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher'."

Burly Black-clad Coach: "Yes".

The leading black-clothed coach: "You go up first, notify the people behind, and let them control their cultivation at the 'Asking Heart Level' level, and then exert all their strength in other aspects, don't leave your hands behind." As for here, after he wakes up, I'll untie it for him, although I can't practice your stunt, but it's still okay to untie someone else's body, go ahead"!

The burly black-clad coach: "Okay, I'll do it immediately."

Saying that, the burly black-clothed coach immediately turned to leave, and then went to inform the others behind him of the news. Only the leading black-clothed coach was left, and he looked at me, whose body was twisted and couldn't figure it out, a little confused. In such a situation, how did I get into the level of epiphany? I really don't understand, is it because I am naturally prone to epiphany?

I don't know how long it took, but I woke up slowly, and then found that I was still in the same place, still twisted into a twist and a doughnut ring. It seems that I am not unraveled. Could it be that this test is to unlock this martial art? But for me now, it's no problem! I slowly recited the mantra silently: the soul moves lightly, the body is in order, the spirit is separated, and the body is relaxed.

Every three words were like untying a shackle, and soon my body was back to normal. From body to soul, I was twisted into the shape of a twist and a doughnut ring, and gradually returned to normal.

Man in Black: "Shh... How could you do it yourself? How did you do it?"

Me: "??? this is not your test, let me get out of this state"?

Man in Black: "!! sort of! Congratulations on passing the level, go on"!

For my rhetorical question, the black-clad coach almost felt like he was choked by me. He felt that the level of difficulty behind me would not let me down, probably because it was too easy.

Moving on, both the weight and pain in my body have slowly decreased, and this realization is very profound for me, although I understand, but I still need to slowly adapt to the application before I can use it well. Ten minutes later, I met someone again.

"Break the dragon's finger, break the bones of the whole body with one finger, if you don't want to suffer, let's go down the mountain!"

The man in black was the oldest I'd ever met, and he was pointing one index finger at the ground, his whole body upside down with the weight of his right index finger.

Me: "Please teach the teacher"!

'Hum', I saw that the old man in black actually bent his index finger, and then flew up into the air with a flick of force, flying directly to my head. The ten fingers of both hands were connected, and the two hundred and six bones in my body were instantly hit by a huge impact, and none of the upper and lower bones in my body were knocked out without pain, and it was as if the bones of the entire body were broken.

Each finger is like an iron cast, and under the control of the other party, it hits the weakest part of each bone with unmistakable precision, and the bones all over the body are always 'crackling'.

"Ahh

The old man in black: "Go up! Congratulations on passing the level, but going up again is a point of no return." At this time, it is still too late to give up, and go your own way."

Me: "Multiple litters... Teacher Xie reminded me that I am choosing my own path and going my own way."

Looking at the old man in black who was gradually walking away, I gritted my teeth behind him and spoke the words. The trembling whole body didn't even let go of his mouth, and the words he said were with a trembling sound, but he still said the words clearly later.

Ten minutes later, I met someone again. His soft whip used the 'swimming whip' method, which made my skin red and swollen again. My skin was like leeches sticking to my skin, but it was all red. Again, I suspect that the stone clothes are purely adding weight to me, and there is no defensive effect at all.

Then the next thing I encountered was a very rare martial art that used hands, knees, legs and knees as an attack technique, and it was as if my whole body was pulled out of the muscles, and my whole body was cramped for a long time.

In the fifth level, I encountered a hand-grabbed martial art, which grabbed the muscles of my whole body one by one, and almost didn't make me faint again. It's not that his pain hurts me so much, it's that the pain hasn't gone away!

In the sixth level, I met a qigong master, and the qi conceived by my body forcibly passed through the Tianling acupoint above my head, and finally rushed out from the soles of my feet. It literally reverses the blood all over my body, and there is not a single pore on my body that does not open.

The seventh level is the best, it's true, the second woman in black. A bed was specially prepared in front of me to check my physique, and he didn't show me any terrifying martial arts, but helped me treat all the injuries on my body.

When she arrived, I was almost moved to tears. I don't have to look, smell, ask, or cut when I lie on the bed, just treat me. Think about me along the way, whether it's peeling, cramping, backblood, scratching flesh, or bruising bones. Which one was polite to me? Which one of his subordinates was merciful, not counting the terrifying 'Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher', and you didn't even have a chance to faint in pain.

But do you think the seventh level is so simple? Of course not, where the treatment will be comfortable, from the earth to here, there are brute force healing methods. So when this beautiful woman in black treated me a little bit, it made me wonder if she was responsible for rubbing salt on my wounds. Although I found that the wounds on my body and the scars on my skin were recovering, I felt more pain!

What about the eighth level? Huh? Where is the eighth level, there is the top of the mountain ahead. At most, ten meters later, it will be the top of the mountain, but what about the eighth level?

The man in black behind him: "Congratulations, there is still one last level, go up! as long as you have the courage to pass the last level, you will pass the level."

Me: "Isn't it the ninth level?"

The man in black behind him: "Why do you think I'm spending so much time? Because I'm the first of the eight levels."

Me: "Oh, I see, I can't think you're the best, teacher." Thank you so much, you were the only one who didn't do anything to me. How nice it would be for all teachers to be just like you! After all, you are a teacher, and you can't use your words!"

The man in black behind him listened to what I said with a black line, and almost didn't beat me back to the bottom of the mountain. He felt that it was time for him to do it, and after thinking about it, he still didn't, after all, there was still one last level! What about the sins I still had! Even if I cleared the level, wouldn't there be any academy that could abuse me!

The man in black behind him: "I'm the coach in black, named Long Chaotian." If you pass, remember me, don't call me teacher, call me Coach Ransom. Got it"?

Me: "Yes, teacher... Oh! No!

Long Chaotian: "Go up!

Long Chaotian said that he walked up first, regardless of whether I went up or not. I don't have anything to say, let's go up first! I can't give up at the last minute!

Oh my God! I'm not mistaken! Look around, there are actually 24 coaches in black! Have I experienced a whole 24 hardships? It's terrible!

At this moment, it is led by Long Chaotian, supplemented by the burly black-clothed man who uses the 'Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher'. Make a circle at the top of the hill, leaving only a gap for me to enter. From this group of black-clothed people, I also remember the black-clothed man in the next few levels, and Qin Yu who gave me the stone clothes in front, and the female black-clothed man who has made me have a worm in my body until now.

My goodness! The earth has a maximum of eighteen layers of hell, and you are simply twenty-four layers of hell here! Can you still have some humanity! What about the other students? They won't be scared away by you! It's too possible, the first level alone is enough to brush down a large number of people, and the others will go to the 'Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher' level at most, right?

Randy Coach: "You still have one last hurdle left, and that is to go through the test of the twenty-four black-clad coaches you faced after coming out of the cave before. If you don't want to, go down, if you still want to go again!"

Me: "I'd like to do it all over again"!

Then in the next moment, I returned to the original intersection, and then met Qin Yu again, and continued to go up, this time without crying or making trouble all the way, just accompanied by screams. After reaching the top again, I was still given two choices: give up or test again.

still chose to re-test, still unchanged, still continued to challenge, and went through the twenty-four layers of hell again. It's just that I have a stronger determination, I want to be stronger, how can I become stronger?

I have only reached the level of enlightenment on the path of enlightenment, and the path to enlightenment mentions that after enlightenment, it is 'asking the heart'! What is the conscience and where is the mind?

While walking up the mountain, I focused my energy and mind on cultivation. What is a conscience? It's time to close the six senses again, and it's still the same, losing sight, hearing, taste, smell, touch, and thinking in order. Then, after passing the level, Long Chaotian appeared in front of me again, but this time he changed his question:

"Is it worth it? Knowing that it will not work, knowing that this is deliberately embarrassing you, don't you still understand? We just want you to give up."

Me: "There is no end to my cultivation path, only a starting point, since it is the starting point, what does it matter how many tests there are?"

Is it worth it? You don't need to ask me again, I believe that none of you are as good as me than perseverance. I'll leave you speechless.

Over and over again, twice, three times, four or five times. When it was time for the sixth time, Long Chaotian asked me again, "Do you know what you are walking"?

Me: "I know, this is the journey of my heart."

Long Chaotian: "Since you know, why don't you come out"?

Me: "I have one more thing to leave with."

Dragon Chaotian: "What's missing"?

Me: "The seven emotions are: joy, anger, worry, love, hatred, fear, and the six desires are: color, sound, fragrance, and touch." I still lack a sense of love. Only when you fall in love with reading can you read good books, and you won't feel bitter when you read. Only when you fall in love with cultivation can you cultivate well, and only then can you not feel that cultivation is bitter."

Long Chaotian: "Then how many reincarnations do you have to go"?

Me: "One more, that's enough, I already know what it's like to fall in love with cultivation."

In the last reincarnation, I chose the seventh time among their choices. With the addition of my first time, I walked a total of eight times, and of course when the last reincarnation was over. I just saw the top of the mountain and I smiled.

Long Chaotian: "Congratulations, you have passed the last level. Congratulations on reaching the 'Inquiry Level', but we have a few questions for you."

When I came back to my senses, I realized that the next seven journeys were just mirrors, and I had seven journeys in my spiritual consciousness. This was the last test, and it was also the process of them sitting around me in a circle, just to give me a real illusion and let me enter the heart they had laid out.

Me: "Coach, excuse me".

Long Chaotian: "What exercises do you practice, why did you go from the 'enlightenment level' to the 'heart questioning level' in just half a day?"

Me: "I've only watched The Road to Enlightenment, and I haven't been able to practice any exercises yet."

Long Chaotian and the others looked at each other, feeling a little incredible, they could cultivate to the 'Asking Heart Level' without exercises? If I was telling the truth, then this might be what the vice president was in the assessment.

Long Chaotian: "Have you learned the 'Hundred Fox Ghost Catcher'?"

Me: "I just understand, but I don't have the ability to do it, it should be too low."

The old man in black: "It's incredible, this is comparable to a young genius like Long Yunkong."

Gu worm female black-clothed man: "I feel that the Gu worm in your body has been transformed by your aura, how can you do it without exercises?"

Me: "I just used it as a vein to draw the aura into my body, and I didn't think too much about it."

Everyone was a little speechless, what kind of reasoning is this? What logic? Assimilation into aura? Isn't it that you use the trajectory of the exercise to kill it and then slowly refine it? How can you directly assimilate it into aura?

Qin Yu: "Can you look inside"?

Me: "I can feel it, I can't feel it clearly."

A man in black: "In your first reincarnation, you found out that you were in consciousness"?

Me: "After it's over." I always thought I would go again seven times. I was just feeling the change in my heart, so I kept walking, until I finally comprehended love, and then I got out of the illusion, and I realized that the next seven journeys were only seven times in my consciousness."

"Hahaha...... And it worked, it was true! You really did a miracle."

A clear voice came from the sky, and it was unknown who was speaking.
