Chapter 299: Soul Tempering in the Sea of Resentful Souls
Time passed quietly as Li Fan continued to familiarize himself with his soul.
With the [Ghost Hairpin] as a rare item, Li Fan's ability to sense souls has been greatly improved.
The recognition success rate also nearly doubled.
From one thousandth to two thousandths, it is a huge leap!
"Yes, it is indeed useful. Unfortunately, my original foundation is too poor. If I want to improve to a qualified level, I need to continue to strengthen my training."
As he immersed himself in the process of comprehending the soul, the amount of golden light in the soul-gathering bead dropped rapidly.
Seven days later, when the fifteen lucky ones who had been eliminated all returned to the Universal Villa, the second phase of closed training officially began.
The students had heard about the "accidental" deaths of Tan Taitao and his companions, and their expressions were a little subtle. However, everyone knew that this matter was very complicated, so no one discussed it in public.
In addition to learning the inner structure of the [Heavenly Mysterious Soul Locking Array], the second stage of training is to continue to deepen the accuracy of sensing the traces of the soul contract. The requirement must be 100% accurate.
This was a bit difficult for Li Fan and other substitute members who did not meet the standards. Fortunately, Ji Hongdao also took this into consideration and very "thoughtfully" prepared additional special training for these students who were at the bottom of the class.
"You were originally eliminated, but due to some unexpected events you returned here."
"This is your fate. Although you are not as talented as others, your fate is worse than those geniuses."
"Life... is important."
"The reason why you were eliminated before was basically because you failed to sense the soul contract mark. The wasted soul gathering bead shows that you are not good at this."
"In this case, if we want to ensure that you are qualified, we have to try another method."
Ji Hongdao looked at Li Fan and others expressionlessly and waved his hand.
Several golden chains suddenly stretched out from the void in all directions and bound their hands and feet.
Ignoring the students' stunned expressions, Ji Hongdao said coldly, "This method is extremely dangerous. If you can't hold on, turning into an irrational idiot is the best outcome. Being completely annihilated and dying is a relief."
"We didn't use this method before because the mortality rate was too high for ordinary monks."
"but……"
A strange look flashed in Ji Hongdao's eyes.
"Since you are lucky, it shouldn't be a problem if you just hold on."
I clapped my hands lightly, and the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
The sound of surging waves was heard, and Li Fan and others were tied to the rocks on the seashore with golden chains.
Although the limbs are locked, it does not affect one's own perspective.
Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the "sea" in front of him.
The breath coming from the ocean made him feel a little creepy.
If you listen carefully, the sound of the waves seems to be mixed with countless cries of pain.
"This is..." Li Fan's face changed slightly as if he had realized something.
"What lies before you is the famous Sea of Wrathful Souls of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance."
"For thousands of years, all the Five Elders who died in the Ten Thousand Years Alliance's territory, their broken souls would be absorbed into this [Sea of Resentful Souls]."
"Over time, no one knows how many spirits have gathered in this sea."
"Every drop of seawater may contain the souls of several or even dozens of cultivators."
"Since you can't discern the soul contract mark by feeling it one by one, then let's have more people."
Ji Hongdao lowered his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice.
Following his words, the [Sea of Resentful Souls] seemed to be summoned.
Waves arise without wind.
A huge wave several feet high suddenly formed and hit Li Fan and others who were trapped on the reef by the sea.
The moment it came into contact with the sea water, countless images and emotions appeared in Li Fan's mind in an instant.
No matter whether the other party can accept such a huge amount of information in such a short time.
The condensed spirit spread violently and eagerly in Li Fan's sea of consciousness.
Occupy all empty spaces by force.
The huge impact came suddenly, and Li Fan was caught off guard. He almost lost his mind and lost himself.
Cursing secretly in his heart, Li Fan tried his best to maintain the existence of his ego consciousness under this wave of spiritual wave.
At the same time, the Dao Stone in his mind was running at full capacity, quickly classifying, archiving and processing the huge amount of information mixed in countless souls.
And apparently because of the danger to his life, the Xuanhuang Refining Heart Mantra also rarely accelerated its operating efficiency at this moment.
Absorb all the negative emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, fear, etc. in the soul.
After taking these two measures at the same time, it seemed like an eternity had passed before Li Fan managed to hold on.
He glanced at the monks around him and found that there was one who could not bear it and his body dissolved under the impact of the waves of the [Sea of Resentful Souls].
The soul also became part of the sea water.
And for most of them, there was a blank space in their eyes.
Only the occasional movement of their black eyeballs indicated that their sanity had not yet been completely erased.
Like Li Fan, there are only two or three people who have recovered from the impact of the soul tide.
However, the hideous expressions on their faces showed the pain they were suffering at the moment.
He also learned to show an expression of unbearable pain. Before Li Fan had time to think too much, the second wave came.
Sink, resist, recover, and sink again.
In this cycle, after an unknown amount of time, the sea finally calmed down.
The chains disappeared, and everyone lost their strength and fell to the ground.
"As expected, you are all lucky. Eleven out of fifteen people managed to survive." Ji Hongdao exclaimed in amazement.
"The way of fate is indeed mysterious. Although it cannot be seen, it really exists. You know, according to the data we collected before, the survival rate of ordinary cultivators under the impact of the [Sea of Wrathful Souls] is only one percent."
"Very good!" Ji Hongdao seemed very happy.
"Today's special training is over. You guys go back and rest first!"
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"We'll continue tomorrow."
Ji Hongdao continued.
When everyone heard this, they were all frightened and looked grim.
The fact that they were able to survive today was entirely due to luck.
Who knows if I can hold on tomorrow?
Inevitably, some people began to back down.
After all, compared with the future of the formation, one's own life is more important.
However, all these people got was Ji Hongdao's cold words: "Want to quit now? It's too late."
"The Sea of Wrathful Souls is so precious that it is not easy for us in the Strategy Hall to apply for it once."
"Either survive it, or become a part of it."
The monk whose request was rejected looked ashen and he sat on the ground helplessly.
Li Fan, however, did not feel any fear.
