Mortals cultivate immortality, and their IQ is playing with their heartbeats

#341 - Chasing the Rhyme of the Book of Sin

The Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun, was trapped within Li Chengfeng's sea of consciousness. The surrounding space seemed to transform into a vast and boundless starry sky. She struggled desperately, only to find that no matter what she did, she couldn't escape. Each attempt felt like running in place.

Li Chengfeng's voice echoed in her ears, laced with a hint of amusement: "So, you're a Fate Master? Truly impressive skills, to be able to enter my sea of consciousness so silently.

However, judging by your posture, are you trying to seize my body? This method of the Fate Masters truly broadens my horizons."

The Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun, felt a chill in her heart and quickly explained: "Fellow Daoist misunderstands. How dare I harbor thoughts of seizing your body? I merely suffered a cultivation deviation and inadvertently stumbled into this place. I shall leave immediately and will not disturb your cultivation."

Li Chengfeng chuckled, clearly not believing her words: "Do you take me for a three-year-old child? Such an excuse is far too weak.

I am fully aware of all the changes in the Blackwater Swamp. You were able to attempt this cross-spatial body seizure precisely by borrowing the power there. Am I right?"

The Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun's expression changed drastically as she looked at Li Chengfeng in disbelief: "You… how could you possibly know so much detail? You must be trying to trick me!"

Li Chengfeng smiled slightly, flicking his fingers. An altar slowly condensed in his palm, almost identical to the altar on the back of the Poison Flame Fire Spirit Beast, radiating an eerie and powerful aura.

The Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun's face instantly turned pale: "You… you can simulate this altar after just one glance? How is that possible?!

You must know that this altar is a unique method of us Fate Masters. How could you possibly do it? And you didn't sacrifice anything!"

Li Chengfeng snorted coldly, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes: "You are all caught in a misconception.

Sacrifice is not the only path. As long as we are willing to put in the effort to cultivate and research, we can achieve the effect you are pursuing.

You Fate Masters are always thinking about getting something for nothing, using the achievements of others to exchange for your own cultivation,

and over time, you naturally become lazy. In fact, the essence of this altar is just a formation for transmitting power. Once you master its mysteries, what difficulty is there in replicating it?"

Hearing this, the Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun, was deeply shaken. She had never imagined that the method of sacrifice, which she had always revered as the gold standard, would be so vulnerable in Li Chengfeng's eyes.

She began to re-examine her path of cultivation, realizing that perhaps she had indeed strayed from the right direction.

Seeing that her expression had wavered, Li Chengfeng continued: "The path of cultivation lies in the improvement of one's heart and comprehension.

Only by truly understanding the essence of power can one control it and use it.

Although you Fate Masters possess many unique methods, if you cannot break free from your reliance on sacrifice, you will ultimately find it difficult to reach the true peak."

The Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun, was silent for a moment, then bowed deeply: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for pointing out my confusion. I have truly learned something today.

Please, Fellow Daoist, let me leave. I will surely turn over a new leaf and cultivate anew."

Li Chengfeng's expression was stern, unmoved by the Little Fate Master's threat. He slowly said: "Fate Master, you pride yourselves on being arrogant and invincible, yet here you seem so weak.

Since you have willingly walked into my net, I will naturally not let you go easily. I will dissect your soul to see what secrets are hidden within the Fate Stone."

Hearing this, the Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun, was enraged: "Li Chengfeng, if you are truly stubborn and insist on fighting me to the death,

then I will spare no expense to detonate your sea of consciousness, so you can taste a fate worse than death!"

Li Chengfeng smiled indifferently, seemingly not taking her threat to heart: "Is that so? If you had such ability, you should have used it long ago. Why bother wasting your breath with me here?

Since you are so confident, then let me see your methods."

Before he finished speaking, Li Chengfeng suddenly waved his hand, and an eerie and powerful force erupted from his palm, heading straight for the Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun.

The Little Fate Master, Zhui Yun, was shocked and cried out: "Soul Severing Technique?! How could you possibly master the Soul Severing Technique that even Fate Masters cannot master?

This secret technique cannot be cultivated by ordinary people. Even among Fate Masters, only Lou Xueyun can use it, and its origins are unknown."

Li Chengfeng smirked, and said lightly: "Lou Xueyun's talent? That's just wishful thinking on your part."
