This is the only problem that troubles Senior Li. He can indeed avoid being deceived by trickery, but the technique of blocking the five senses is basically unsolvable.
He still doesn't know if the other person is male or female, what they look like, or their exact location.
Even if we know all this, if a fight really breaks out, we won't be able to see, hear, or smell anything. If someone wants to run away, they can just slip away easily.
Once you blend into the vast sea of people, it becomes difficult to find them again.
Both Senior Li and his enemy knew that if they met again, it would be the shortest and most intense battle, likely to decide life or death in an instant, with neither side giving the other another chance.
So, here's the question.
Can Su Lin do it?
Senior Li didn't quite believe it, so he only mentioned the possibility.
"uncertain."
Su Lin looked into Senior Li's eyes and slowly shook his head: "I'm also trying. Someone is helping me to probe for that person's whereabouts and information."
"Oh, you sent someone to their death, adding another blood debt to your list."
Senior Li smiled faintly, completely unconcerned. Over the years, he had tried many methods but to no avail. In his view, Su Lin was certainly incapable of doing it either.
Su Lin remained silent and offered no explanation.
In fact, he himself was not sure if the mimic could do this, so he could only take a gamble and follow Xiao Linlin's plan.
"Junior brother..."
Xu Zhenshu's soft voice sounded from behind. Su Lin looked up and saw that her senior sister had already finished washing up.
She was wearing a change of clothes from Su Lin, a white shirt and trousers, which didn't quite fit her thin frame, but at least they were much cleaner. Her wet hair was draped smoothly over her shoulders, and although her complexion was still somewhat sallow and dull, one could still vaguely see the fair skin she had a few years ago.
She is still as beautiful as ever, and her temperament remains dignified. She is the kind of virtuous daughter-in-law that the older generation sees her as.
"Um."
Su Lin nodded, her clear eyes meeting Xu Zhenshu's tender gaze.
He admired this woman somewhat; she was a model woman for being able to take care of her family and lover in the face of hardship and adversity, and for not wavering in her resolve despite the trials.
As for feelings... Su Lin could only say that he would not cause this woman any more suffering, but it was impossible for him to reciprocate in any way.
"Take your junior brother to see your master. Hopefully, his appearance won't frighten Lin'er."
Senior Li lazily spoke up from the side: "As for this little girl, her name is Linlin, right? You stay and keep me company for a while."
"yes."
Xu Zhenshu nodded slightly in agreement and walked over to Su Lin's side.
Senior Li intentionally left the young couple some time alone, allowing them to savor the youthful brilliance amidst hardship.
Su Lin didn't argue and nodded, then walked with Xu Zhenshu into the darkness underground.
The cave was carved out by humans; it is long and narrow, but it becomes spacious at the depths, revealing a natural underground river area.
Xu Zhenshu stood with Su Lin by the river. On the dark water lay a half-naked middle-aged man, his hair disheveled, his eyes closed, seemingly dead or asleep.
"Master...Master, Junior Brother is back."
Xu Zhenshu called softly, her voice echoing through the cave, but the man in the middle of the river remained oblivious.
Beside him, on the river's surface, floated many broken swords. These broken swords would occasionally touch his body due to the ripples on the river, seemingly chaotic yet seemingly containing a hidden rhythm.
"I hope Master won't be in trouble..." Xu Zhenshu worriedly went down to the river to call him, but Su Lin stopped him: "He's practicing his internal energy at a crucial moment. We can't disturb him."
"Circulation?"
Xu Zhenshu was taken aback and murmured, "Grandmaster said that Master had long since gone astray in his cultivation, that his path was wrong, and that he should not have been allowed to easily enter a meditative state!"
“He didn’t go astray; he’s on a new path.”
Su Lin shook his head in a deep voice, gazing at the man in the middle of the river, his nominal father.
He didn't interact much with Su Qingyang, only viewing him from a martial artist's perspective, and Su Lin couldn't help but marvel at his talent.
With the aid of spiritual energy and divine sense, Su Lin's system is superior to martial arts, so his perception is more accurate than Senior Li's.
He could clearly sense the changes in Su Qingyang's internal energy at this moment. It was chaotic yet orderly, as if Su Qingyang was adjusting his hidden injuries and repairing his foundation in a novel way.
This is a method that does not exist in the current game world. It is a brand new martial art that Su Qingyang comprehended and pioneered in a desperate situation. Isn't this a genius? It's simply too amazing!
For a moment, Su Lin was even in a daze, thinking that even without other help, perhaps Senior Li and Su Qingyang could join forces to find a new path in martial arts in a desperate situation.
That mysterious figure who wreaks havoc in the martial arts world may not necessarily have the last laugh.
"We still can't underestimate any native in the game world, especially those who are already exceptionally talented. Survivors are just better than them because they have some unique skills created by their survival talents."
"Leaving aside these methods, or the fact that the natives have adapted to and figured them out... I'm afraid most of the survivors have no chance of winning."
Su Lin pondered silently. The existence of various worlds under the escape mechanism is the source of pressure for escaping danger, but at the same time, it is also the source that helps the escapees grow quickly.
How to balance one's own position and identity with the world—whether to fight, exploit, befriend, or compromise—depends on the wisdom and methods of each survivor.
Perhaps the very existence of the escape world, its many mysteries, and the significance of the extraordinary creatures within it are not meant to be the enemies of the escapees.
It should be an object of learning, imitation, reference and understanding, a beacon of light in the middle and even at the end of many great paths, reflecting oneself with the myriad paths of the world.
