Chapter 839 The Gods' Game: Card Swapping 83
The second day was barely okay.
On the third day, Yu Xunge began to wonder if this was a way of tormenting her with wailing, as revenge for her question, "Why can't I renege on my debt?"
On the fourth day, she became extremely irritable, even enraged... This did not make her skills more formidable, but instead greatly reduced her attack efficiency.
But she is optimistic, and she sometimes fantasizes about whether she will break through her limits and master some amazing skills.
On the fifth day, she had a feeling of her soul leaving her body, and she mechanically attacked the monster in front of her again and again.
She couldn't be sure if every attack she made was at full power; sometimes she would even forget to use her skills.
She couldn't remember what she was doing; her brain seemed to be asleep.
On the sixth day, her three Sun Chasing Techniques turned gray for the first time...
She had no sleep or food, but water magic could provide her with water, and she also had countless healing potions left behind by the wailing, which she said she would probably need.
On the seventh day, Yu Xunge began to lose health.
Perhaps my body has reached its limit?
So even without wounds, it begins to crumble and die.
He left after wailing after being told about the course assignments.
She hasn't come once in all these days. She hasn't come to check on her progress, nor has she come to encourage her with any words.
Yu Xunge hadn't seen or heard a living creature speak for several days; the only companion on the vast icy plain was the summer snowman in her arms.
Whether it was a final burst of energy before death or not, when the sunrise on the eighth day illuminated the ice field, her mind seemed to clear a little.
She seemed to be waking up from a long sleep.
Even when she glanced up and saw that the giant Cherno worm still had 420,000 health points, she did not fly into a rage or lose control.
She was just desperate.
It's hard not to feel despair; it's as if she's walking a road with no end in sight, a road filled with pain along the way.
It wasn't as wonderful as she had imagined. She didn't break through her limits and learn any skills, and the Howling Skill was nowhere to be seen. The permanent buffs were like the rising and setting sun, untouchable.
She couldn't help but think that it wouldn't matter if there were no wailing teachings, since her teacher was the Sun Chaser!
She can have Zhu Ri teach her.
It's not too late to turn back; it's only just begun. She hasn't wasted any time, but she's unwilling to turn back now.
For some reason, she thought of Zhu Ri from the past, the Zhu Ri who failed in his last pursuit of Tian Hu Hao Qi.
When the first game ended in defeat, were the apprentices, who had been ruled by the darkest hour for years, busy celebrating, or did they seize the opportunity to mock Sun Chaser who had fallen into the mire?
What was he thinking about every day when he failed in both the individual and fun competitions?
In the final team match, what were her feelings as she helped Huangjin win the championship and achieve a perfect 7-man draw?
Was that victory because "Annihilation" had begun to take effect and her strength had been restored to some extent?
Did she push her limits to fulfill her friend's wishes?
Which of these two answers, the wailing or the screaming, is more frightening?
If it's the latter...
Yu Xunge thought that perhaps it was at that moment that Zhu Ri truly felt despair and resentment.
Why don't you believe her? She could have done it!
However, she collapsed just before the finish line, and the race was over forever.
Her life, though seemingly bleak, remained vibrant. She wasn't trapped in that moment; she and Wailing were both waiting for the day they could let go of their past grievances. That day would surely come.
What you miss, you can never get back.
"It won't stop and wait for you."
The words spoken by Zhu Ri began to echo in Yu Xunge's mind.
"It won't stop and wait for you."
"It won't stop and wait for you."
Back then, Tianhu Haoqi didn't stop to wait for Zhuri.
Even now, the passing of time will not stop to wait for her.
She didn't have many chances; only by achieving a perfect seven-star draw for three consecutive years could she be worthy of the title "Chasing the Sun Moment."
She cannot have the slightest thought or idea that if it doesn't work this time, there will be another chance.
The path of chasing the sun and the Heavenly Seven is one that is likely to lead to endless suffering in the end.
Just like right now.
After the gods' game, the heart that had been floating in the air finally landed on this silent, icy plain.
Her mind had never been so clear, so acutely aware that the game had only just begun.
Her hands were too weak; she needed to eat something and rest.
With another slash, she ripped off a piece of Cherno worm flesh, her right hand still attacking, while her left hand ignited a flame to roast the piece of flesh in her palm.
She finally got to eat.
This class will be very long.
Beside the fireplace, Wailing stared blankly at the scene above the flames, the wine in his hand untouched for a long time.
She suddenly spoke up: "Actually, I've been scared these past few days."
A voice rang out from behind: "What are you afraid of?"
She wailed, "I'm afraid the lessons I've arranged will completely break her down, I'm afraid I'll do too much again."
She received no answer, and when she mustered the courage to turn around, she could no longer see her apprentice.
...
Yu Xunge ate seven pieces of roasted insect meat in a row before stopping, feeling as if she had woken up from hibernation.
Roasted insect meat tastes much better than the candy she gets every day!
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of a familiar figure. She wanted to call out the person's name with a smile, but when she opened her mouth, she found that she couldn't make a sound.
She took a while to catch her breath before awkwardly calling out "Chase the Sun!" Her voice was so hoarse and weak that she could barely hear it herself, and it dissipated into the strong winds of the icy plains as soon as it left her lips.
The sun rose, but her hands never stopped moving; she attacked the Cherno worm with all her might time and time again.
Her arm strength was no longer sufficient, and she had to switch arms many times. Now she had to rely on the rotation of her body and the twisting of her core to squeeze out all the strength in her body to complete an attack that could cause 1 point of damage.
She has overcome the sluggishness of the Starry Glacier and emerged from that almost lifeless state.
Yu Xunge glanced at Zhu Ri. Hailstones blown by the wind landed on her shoulders and melted quickly. Her dark green cloak was blown far, far away by the wind.
Every time she saw Zhu Ri's long cloak, she wondered if it was a curtain that had been torn off somewhere. She had secretly measured it once and found that Zhu Ri's long cloak was almost as long as her favorite blanket!
After arriving here, she secretly compared the wailing little cape to her own, and it was quite amusing that it was the same size as her bath towel!
Should she also get a cloak to wear? It seems to be a tradition of the sect.
As she was lost in thought, she heard Zhu Ri suddenly ask her, "What were you thinking about just now?"
