Chapter 220 The Path to Godhood?
It was already dark when people started arriving, and there were roughly several hundred people.
The once empty valley has become lively.
"Let's go down."
Liu Mo led the three to the edge of the pool. "This will do."
"Brother Mo, is there any particular custom?"
Liu Mo gestured for everyone to sit down, then smiled and said, "There's nothing special about it. If you really want to be particular, just don't force yourself. Try to walk back on your own later."
The three of them were somewhat confused, but they still followed Liu Mo's example and sat on the rocks by the pool, facing the Azure Dragon Stele.
The Azure Dragon Stele was surrounded by spiritual energy, and the water surface was completely still.
A crowd gathered around the pool, and gradually, everyone quieted down, as if waiting for something.
Half an hour later.
A ray of moonlight shone on the Azure Dragon Stele.
Buzz....
The mist dissipated.
The Azure Dragon Stele revealed its true form, exuding a faint spiritual aura.
"Hold fast to your principles; if it is impossible, then give up the fight."
While the three were still pondering the meaning behind Liu Mo's words.
The calm water began to ripple.
A stream of water, as thick as an arm, gathered in front of Xiao Weiqing and flew towards him.
Yu Guang glanced at Liu Mo and saw that he didn't move. Xiao Weiqing didn't move either, letting the water slowly surround him.
The suffocating feeling I had imagined didn't happen; instead, it felt very comfortable. I'm so comfortable that I just want to lie down now, and I feel like my soul is wandering in the world.
"wrong!"
Xiao Weiqing suddenly realized what was happening.
In that instant, he seemed to have detached from his body, and he quickly gathered a mental shield to resist the invasion of the unknown force.
now.
Everything before my eyes was a blur, and I could no longer see anything around me. My perception of my surroundings became increasingly hazy, much like the feeling of being drunk.
"What exactly is going on?"
Xiao Weiqing's eyelids grew heavier and heavier. He shook his head, but still couldn't avoid falling asleep.
"meditation!"
"Yes, meditation!"
He mustered his strength, sank his mind into the depths of his brain, and began practicing the Starry Sky Visualization Method.
Gradually.
Xiao Weiqing regained control of her body, and her senses and touch became much clearer, and everything around her became clearer.
On the left, Su Yunfei had already collapsed.
Dongfang Xuan also seemed unsteady on his feet, looking as if he was about to collapse.
Moonlight caressed my face, and a gentle breeze stirred.
As time goes by.
One by one, the people by the pool collapsed and fell into a deep sleep.
Some people, through sheer willpower, struggled free from the pool's embrace and staggered away.
Xiao Weiqing saw all of this clearly.
The trainees were collapsing at an accelerating rate, and in the end, only 8 or 9 people were still able to sit.
Xiao Weiqing could clearly sense these people, and strangely enough, he also knew that these people could sense his presence as well.
As the moon set behind another mountain, the light on the Azure Dragon Stele completely disappeared.
"Ugh~~"
A dragon's roar resounded deep within his mind.
"Ugh~~"
"Aww~ Aww~~"
The dragon's roar grew louder and louder, echoing in his mind, which startled Xiao Weiqing awake.
A wave of pain surged through his mind, causing Xiao Weiqing to cry out involuntarily.
"Hmph~~"
"Whoosh!~"
A figure came to Xiao Weiqing's side.
Are you alright?
Xiao Weiqing covered his temples with both hands and squeezed them hard, but he still couldn't get rid of the soul-tearing pain.
"Brother Mo, I'm fine."
I forced myself to open my eyes, and my vision slowly returned.
"Brother Mo, is it over?"
"Um."
"Xiao Weiqing, you have truly opened my eyes. You have shown me what it means to have mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people. Compared to you, Fan Bai is nothing."
The shock and envy in Liu Mo's voice were palpable.
"Brother Mo, what do you mean? I don't quite understand."
"Let's go back first, and talk as we walk."
When Liu Mo and Su Yunfei arrived at the valley, Su Yunfei was still lying on the ground, and Dongfang Xuan was in no better condition, clinging to a tree to keep himself from collapsing.
"Xiao Weiqing, you carry Dongfang Xuan on your back."
"it is good."
Liu Mo carried Su Yunfei on his back and slowly walked towards their residence.
"It is said that there is a drop of divine liquid in the water of Haoyue Pool. What exactly it is is unknown. Its main function is to nourish the soul in conjunction with the moon of this world and the Azure Dragon Stele."
"Nourish the soul?"
"That's right, you should know that mental strength is a quantitative manifestation of the strength of one's soul."
"Um."
Xiao Weiqing nodded; he had heard Qian Yi mention this before.
"Back in the Great Xia Dynasty, we used the Azure Dragon Stele to enhance our spiritual power and strengthen our souls, while the Bright Moon Pool can directly nourish your soul."
"Just now, you saw those people who, like you, persevered to the very end, right?"
"Those guys are either born with powerful souls or are spiritual cultivators with methods for cultivating their souls. There are less than 10 people like that in the training camp."
"The vast majority are like me, relying on sheer willpower to cultivate in Haoyue Pool. It's a bit like being unable to keep up with the effects of external medicine. They can't hold on for long before the body's self-protection mechanism forces them to shut down the connection between their soul and the outside world."
"I see."
Xiao Weiqing thought back to when he felt like he was about to ascend to immortality. If he hadn't realized it back then, he probably wouldn't be in much better shape now.
"Now you know how special you are."
"No matter which situation you are in, your soul surpasses that of 99.99% of people, and those with strong souls will definitely succeed in their second awakening without exception."
"Of course, with your level 6 true skills, a second awakening is a foregone conclusion for you."
As Liu Mo spoke, he let out a deep sigh and lamented:
"Sigh, you say the gods are unfair, since everyone can awaken their talents, but you also say they are fair, yet the gap between people is so vast."
"Brother Mo is right."
Dongfang Xuan muttered.
"You're not dead yet?" Xiao Weiqing laughed.
"Don't even mention it, it was worse than death. My whole body was out of control, like I was paralyzed."
"Ha ha...."
Liu Mo laughed, "This is normal. You'll get used to it. Once you recover, you'll find that your mental strength, which hasn't broken through in a long time, can easily enter the next level. You'll love this feeling."
"Only when your mental strength exceeds level 50 will you be able to truly appreciate the usefulness of this Bright Moon Pool."
"Brother Mo, tell me about it?" Xiao Weiqing asked curiously.
Liu Mo said, "According to the divine messenger, the Azure Dragon Divine Stele contains a path to godhood. As long as one comprehends the Azure Dragon Divine Stele, one will be qualified to become a god."
"real?"
"It's fake! The divine messenger is lying," the weakened Dongfang Xuan said coldly.
Xiao Weiqing was taken aback. "How did you know?"
"That's what my great-grandfather said."
"Senior Dongfang Hao?"
Xiao Weiqing was puzzled. Was there something unknown about this?
