Josh nearly fainted from the pain.
In the following period of time, she not only passively tried various painful experiments, but also experienced various types of pain that she had never felt before.
Only then did she realize that there were far more minor pains in the world than just burning pain, tearing pain, freezing pain, and cutting pain, there were also many kinds of pain that she couldn't name.
The types of pain were varied, and in the end she even became numb to it.
I can't tell whether I'm in pain or what I'm doing.
The statue would always wait for her to recover a little before moving on to the next punishment.
After Josh experienced all the pain, he returned to the darkness.
The statue looked at her quietly. "Now do you know what kind of pain they have suffered? Even so, are you still willing to take the risk of letting them suffer this pain again and take the Heart of the Ocean away?"
Qiao Xi paused for a moment, thinking of the Mermaid King in the Heart of the Ocean, and nodded firmly: "Yes!"
The statue sighed quietly and said nothing more.
Josh returned to the bottom of the sea and saw the other four teammates, all of whom had more or less painful expressions on their faces.
Except for Yu Ze.
He looked extremely angry and seemed like he might attack someone at any moment.
Josh took a deep breath and got ready.
Sure enough, the scene before her eyes began to change again. She felt as if she was being pulled into a dark abyss. It was pitch black all around her. There was no wind or other sounds. It was so quiet that it seemed as if she was the only one left in the world.
The voice of the statue sounded behind him: "Have you ever experienced endless darkness and loneliness?"
Josh turned around and saw the statue behind him.
The statue looked at her with sad eyes: "We have waited countless times in the darkness for the king to return, but what we finally got was not the king, but a heart. The king's body has been damaged, and only this heart is left."
"We once hated the king. He was different from others. He shouldered the survival and future of all the creatures under the sea. His life was no longer decided by him alone. But he still resolutely chose to abandon us and follow the queen's footsteps."
"You wait until the end and all hope is gone. Do you know how it feels?"
"You'll know if you try it."
After the statue finished speaking, Qiao Xi only felt that her body was sinking continuously, as if she was buried underground, and her body was still falling continuously. The things around her were approaching her and swallowing her body.
She was buried deeper than the deep.
I don’t know how long I fell before my body slowly calmed down.
She wanted to raise her hand to touch the things around her, but found that her body could not move at all.
Not only could he not move, but his body was also restricted, and he couldn't even swallow or open his eyelids.
There was endless silence in my ears, as if there was nothing, no wind, no sound, nothing that could make a sound.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips. At this moment, she had to admit that it was the first time that she felt that time had passed so slowly.
She had been waiting for too long and was getting a little impatient, so she wanted to mobilize some of the gem's spiritual power from her body to practice, but she found that she couldn't even mobilize her cultivation level or release her mental power.
Her time seemed to stop at this moment, and everything was moving away from her.
Josh hated this feeling very much, but there was nothing he could do. Perhaps this was also part of God’s judgment.
She could only wait quietly.
Time passes by every second.
The silence in the darkness is particularly abrupt and pervasive.
Josh felt really bored, so he just relaxed and took a nap.
When I woke up, I was faced with endless darkness and an immobile body.
She gradually became a little annoyed and wanted to stop. She already knew what it felt like to wait in the dark and didn't need to experience it again.
But she couldn't even speak.
To keep time, she began counting her breaths, using the sound of her breathing to keep track of time.
Time passed by little by little, and she felt that she had been in the dark for more than a month.
Qiao Xi couldn't help but wonder if this was a plot by the statue. He couldn't find the Heart of the Ocean from her, so he wanted to use this method to trap her at the bottom of the sea so that she wouldn't be able to take the Heart of the Ocean away.
But how could he be sure that the Heart of the Ocean was with her?
What if she gave the Heart of the Ocean to her teammates?
Is she the only one trapped here, or are all her teammates trapped in the same situation?
Josh gritted his teeth, feeling that he was going crazy because of this feeling.
In order to stay calm, she began to sort out the timeline of her arrival on the Federation planet.
From returning here to entering the mysterious guild and passing the dungeon, her strength has been increasing little by little, and her cultivation has been steadily recovering.
I believe that in the near future, she will be able to recover her cultivation, break through the void, and return to her master.
Therefore, all the sufferings and obstacles now are to make her stronger and become a god.
All she has to do is calm down and accept everything she is experiencing now.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound of wind in my ears.
Qiao Xi quickly opened his eyes and saw a faint white light slowly lighting up not far away.
Her eyes lit up, and she realized that she could blink and swallow. The illusion that was suppressing her was lifted.
The statue appeared in front of her: “Josh, congratulations, you passed my trial.”
Josh didn’t speak.
The statue said, "I am not hostile to you, but I want you to know that we have really gone through a lot of suffering in order to wait for the king's return. If you blindly take the Heart of the Ocean away and destroy the seabed, all our hard work will be destroyed."
Qiao Xi nodded: "I understand. Don't worry, I will help you convey your meaning to your king."
The statue asked again: "Actually, you can break my illusion, right?"
Josh looked at him.
Statue: "I can sense that you have the ability of infinite dreams. With this ability, it will be easy for you to defeat my illusion."
Josh shrugged: "I know you have no ill intentions, so I didn't use any skills, but the illusion you just created really made me suffer. I felt like I was trapped in it for more than a month."
Statue: "In fact, I only stayed there for 10 minutes. I sped up the flow of time in the illusion."
Qiao Xi narrowed his eyes and smelled something unusual: "How can I speed up the flow of time in the illusion?"
The statue looked down at her: "You, don't know?"
Josh looked at him for a few seconds and fell silent.
If she knew, why would she bother asking the question?
The statue seemed to have realized this as well, and quickly added: "It's actually very simple to do this. You just need to integrate your consciousness into time when constructing a dream, compress your timeline, and expand the other party's timeline. When you can do this, you can stop the time of all creatures in the illusion."
Josh didn't quite understand: "How can I compress my timeline and expand the other party's timeline?"
The statue was silent for a moment: "You will understand later."
