Chapter 266 Breaking Free from the Cage 9
Chapter 266
As we all know, the hardest thing is always creating something from nothing, while the simplest thing is simply adopting existing ideas.
From the very beginning, these spiritual beings were prey for others; in the eyes of others, they were commodities or goods.
Therefore, my previous feelings were all correct. I absolutely must not open my subconscious mind. In front of those 'gods,' opening the subconscious mind, which has no 'gate,' is like opening a door to welcome others in.
Thinking these things through didn't help her with her current situation, but it did help her sort out her thoughts.
The challenges she faced when she first entered the Colosseum were not actually obstacles to her progress.
Information interception is the real problem. As long as you cover your own ears and shut other people's mouths, you will always be the fish on the chopping block.
That 'colosseum' was probably just a selection process, ranking various goods to determine their value.
Lin Xia stretched out her hand, energy dancing at her fingertips. No wonder her abilities were now unsealed; even unsealed, she was still just a toy in someone else's hands.
The real killer move is actually useless here, but once the energy in the subconscious sea is used, all the worlds linked by one's mental power will be opened to others.
At this moment, the outside world trembled, all the tremors disappeared, and the world returned to clarity, revealing only white or blood-red bulges.
At a glance, there is more blood and less white.
Those inside the formation realized that the matter was not over yet, and some trembled as they looked at the blood-red bulges.
Because they lost the white light, their strength decreased; the more people they killed, the greater the decrease in strength.
Those with blood-red eyes, however, have generally become much stronger due to the fusion with the color of blood. If they were to fight, the outcome would be self-evident.
Those who just moments ago wished they could get further and further away from Lin Xia were now huddled together, trying to get as close to her as possible.
Everyone could see what the white and blood colors represented. Even though Lin Xia was the BOSS, she was more 'kind' than any of them.
Lin Xia ignored their petty actions. She sensed a controlling force, but this control was based on the array surrounding them, not on their bodies.
Looking into the void, she seemed to hear the sound of dice being rolled. Her expression changed slightly, and Lin Xia pursed her lips; she didn't like this feeling.
She was working hard to cultivate in order to escape the control of the game system, but now she seems to be trapped in another predicament.
Lin Xia's mental power could see very far. As the dice clattered to the ground, two blood-red bulges and one white bulge suddenly shifted positions and came together.
The formation suddenly shattered. They didn't know what sound they heard, but the chaotic battle resumed. Soon, the white disappeared, and the blood-red bulge expanded three times its original size.
And so, formations kept opening, and people kept getting caught up in them; without exception, it was all about fighting.
The formation where Lin Xia and his group were located also experienced a battle with the red formation, which ended only after all of the red formation's members were killed.
The scene was one of utter devastation. The man with the bloodshot eyes was completely unrestrained, in a state of near madness, killing anyone he saw, and he was also stronger to begin with.
If it weren't for Lin Xia and Zeng Zhi, everyone in this formation would have been killed long ago. Even so, the casualties were still heavy.
Throwing away the crimson light that tried to entangle them, Lin Xia saw many people quietly absorbing several crimson orbs into their bodies. The increase in their strength made many people increasingly addicted.
Lin Xia ignored it, and Zeng Zhi glanced at her coldly before turning her eyes away.
After a long pause, seemingly finding it uninteresting, the outcome of the red-white encounter was far from suspenseful. With just this one move, white had lost more than half its number, and...
Lin Xia glanced at the formation. This formation no longer had a filtering function, and all those who had been reintroduced into the crimson light cluster had begun to mutate.
The white orb had already been mixed with red, and was no longer pure white. There was no suspense left. Would this god continue to play this game?
She found out very quickly.
White not only meets red, but also white.
Watching the chaotic battles and the united resistance, Lin Xia coldly observed the farce. Zeng Zhi frowned: "This...this is the trial of the gods? Is it so...simple and brutal?"
Lin Xia said coldly, "It's just accelerating the elimination process."
"Does God... not care about life at all?"
"Do you care?" Lin Xia's words startled Zeng Zhi. Her face paled, but she still nodded firmly: "I care about the people in my world."
"Do you care about the lives of ants?"
Zeng Zhi was stunned, and asked in return, "Do you care?"
Lin Xia smiled suddenly, but had to say, "I don't care."
Zeng Zhi was somewhat surprised by Lin Xia's frankness: "I thought..."
"Not caring doesn't mean you'll trample on them. If the 'gods' you're talking about were born from humans, then is it really okay to trample on humans like this?" Lin Xia was very puzzled.
Seeing Zeng Zhi's puzzled look, Lin Xia did not explain. Looking at the countless lives that dissipated, she sighed, "Perhaps because they were too weak, their counterattacks could not keep up with the speed of resolution."
When the white light dissipated once more, Lin Xia saw a familiar face, seemingly without any surprise.
"Lin Xia, it's been a long time."
"Mu Xue, it's been a long time."
The two smiled at each other. Throughout the whole process, Lin Xia was not too anxious, simply because she had ruled out all possibilities and knew very well that this was just a place the survival game had arranged for her to enter.
She looked at the [Attribute Doubling Card] in her palm and sighed inwardly. She didn't know what 'God' was thinking, but she knew that 'God' didn't want her to die. 'God' was arranging for her to walk a path, a path that she didn't know where it would lead.
Her past experiences helped her see many things clearly, strengthened her resolve, and led her to find her future path.
I've been progressing steadily all along, following the pre-arranged route.
The reason I didn't develop any rebellious thoughts along the way was simply because this path suited me perfectly, and I was almost always in my comfort zone.
But ever since the appearance of the [Colosseum] and [Attribute Doubling Card], Lin Xia has felt a sense of urgency.
Especially the [Attribute Doubling Card]. When Zeng Zhi mentioned 'becoming a god' earlier, she suspected that if her attributes were doubled, she would meet the conditions for 'becoming a god'.
In other words, what might be different if one's mental strength reaches 10,000?
She didn't put the card in her storage space; she always carried it with her.
She wondered if she would be trapped here forever if she didn't use this card, since who knew what would happen after she used it?
Is it becoming a god? Or has something beyond our control happened?
But when she saw Mu Xue, she knew that there was more than one path than the so-called 'becoming a god'.
So what should her path be?
