Chapter 346 Mental Trial
As for potential future risks?
They no longer care.
As long as I can become stronger, as long as I can destroy the Spirit Hall!
They are willing to pay any price, no matter the risks!
The last trace of rejection and resistance to the power of resentment in his heart vanished completely in the face of this terrifying speed of improvement.
"well done."
A cold and authoritative voice echoed through the space.
The God of Resentment waved his right hand, and a gentle black power enveloped the two of them.
They were instantly transported away from the burial altar and appeared in a relatively stable and safe open space.
Congratulations!
"At the very last moment, hold fast to your true self and complete the second trial of the God of Resentment—the Body Refinement in the Pool of Resentment!"
As soon as the words were spoken, two even more terrifying and thicker black beams of light crashed down on the two of them.
[The Test of Resentment: Second Stage Completed!]
[Reward 1: Increase the age of all Soul Rings by 500 years!]
[Reward Two: Awaken a special physique—the Body of Resentment!]
"Buzz!"
The two of them simultaneously unleashed dazzling light from their spirit rings, their spirit ring ages increased wildly, and their auras rose steadily, far surpassing those of other spirit masters of the same level!
Meanwhile, an invisible and intangible physical transformation, penetrating deep into the bones, was quietly completed.
The immense power of resentment that remained in the body and had not yet been digested.
The moment the body of resentment takes shape, it is instantly and completely absorbed, assimilated, and controlled!
Physical strength, soul resilience, power, speed, and soul power purity all surged!
What surprised them even more was...
The surrounding space is filled with the omnipresent power of wandering resentment.
As if attracted by a magnet, it automatically surged into their bodies!
Without needing to absorb it deliberately, this power will naturally seep into their bodies and silently transform into their cultivation level!
"this..."
Tang San was startled and couldn't help but ask.
"Senior, what exactly is the Body of Resentment?"
The God of Resentment glanced at him indifferently, and explained slowly in a calm tone.
"The Body of Resentment is a top-tier, unique physique inherited exclusively by me."
"Born with an affinity for the resentment of heaven and earth, no matter where they are, they can automatically absorb resentment and transform it into their own cultivation at any time, at a speed that is dozens or even hundreds of times faster than ordinary people's arduous cultivation."
He paused, then continued:
"When you are strong enough and your realm is high enough, the Body of Resentment can evolve further and become the God Body of Resentment."
"At that time, all the resentment of heaven and earth will be at your disposal!"
"With just a thought, one can incite resentment, unwillingness, anger, and madness in others, causing them to go insane, kill, lose control, and become monsters who only know how to fight."
"Almost invincible among those of the same level!"
Xiao Wu was deeply moved, her beautiful eyes flashing with a burning light and the flames of revenge.
revenge!
Get stronger!
Charge towards the Spirit Hall!
This is precisely why they are willing to undergo divine trials at all costs!
This is exactly the power they want and need most!
"Thank you for your kindness, senior!"
The two bowed simultaneously, their tone respectful and sincere.
"No need for such formalities."
The god of resentment spoke indifferently, without the slightest ripple of emotion.
"Now, let's begin the third test."
As soon as he finished speaking, the space around him shifted dramatically once again.
Tang San and Xiao Wu suddenly felt everything go black, and instantly found themselves in a dark, oppressive, and boundless eerie space.
There was no earth, no sky, no sound, no light, and no reference points.
The only thing that existed was a terrifying pressure that seemed to crush the soul and tear apart the sea of the mind!
This pressure does not act on the physical body, nor on the soul power, but only on the body.
Spirit, soul!
"Ugh!"
Xiao Wu's face turned deathly pale instantly. She clutched her head, squatted down in agony, and trembled violently all over.
She was originally a 100,000-year-old soft-boned rabbit in human form, possessing unparalleled physical talent, but mental strength was not her forte.
This pure spiritual pressure was ten or even a hundred times more terrifying to her than the previous body tempering in the Pool of Resentment!
Tang San was in no better shape; his face was pale, veins bulged on his forehead, and he was in excruciating pain in his soul.
Only the Purple Demon Eye operated automatically, emitting a faint purple light, which helped him barely resist and hold on.
The voice of the god of resentment echoed slowly in this boundless spiritual space, majestic, cold, and devoid of any emotion.
"This is a space of spiritual resentment. The mental pressure inside is a hundred times greater than that outside, and it is all directed at the soul and mental strength."
"The third test - mental tempering."
"Rule: Stay here for three full days."
"Persist and you will pass the test. If you can't hold on... your spiritual sea will completely collapse, your body will perish, your soul will be scattered, and there will be no possibility of reincarnation."
His tone was calm, yet it sent chills down their spines, sending an extreme coldness through their hearts.
The price of failure in this stage is not puppets, not regression, but...
die!
"Of course, you can also choose to withdraw."
"The God of Resentment said calmly."
"But to withdraw would be to abandon my entire legacy."
"And as long as you get through these three days, your mental strength will undergo a qualitative transformation."
"For Soul Masters who want to break through to higher realms, strive to become Title Douluo, or glimpse the realm of gods, spiritual power is the foundation, the key, and an indispensable core."
"This trial will be of great use to your future ascension to godhood."
The threat of death was laid bare before them.
Upon hearing the words "soul scattered," Tang San and Xiao Wu trembled simultaneously.
The shadow of death instantly loomed over my heart.
Their minds were uncontrollably plunged into the deepest, most painful memories...
The image of his mother's sacrifice appeared before Tang San's eyes.
His father, Tang Hao, was expelled from the Haotian Sect and carried a bad reputation throughout his life.
He had never even seen his mother since he was a child.
"The Spirit Hall..."
Tang San clenched his fists so tightly that his fingernails dug deep into his palms, drawing blood.
Xiao Wu's mind was filled with a crimson light.
The gentle mother died tragically at the hands of the Spirit Hall's Soul Hunting Team while protecting her escape.
In the Star Dou Great Forest, Da Ming and Er Ming were surrounded and killed by the Spirit Hall's powerful warriors in order to protect her.
She went from being a carefree little Wu to a soul beast who could only hide in the human world and eke out a living.
She lost her family, her home, and everything!
Everything was caused by the Spirit Hall!
"I want revenge..."
Xiao Wu murmured softly, tears streaming down her face, but they were instantly evaporated by her hatred.
Tang San gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain in his soul, and looked at Xiao Wu with a determined gaze.
"Xiao Wu..."
Xiao Wu raised her head, her pale face showing no fear, only unwavering determination and resolve:
"Brother, I'm not afraid. If we're going to get revenge, we can't be afraid of you. I'll stick with you and we'll keep going!"
"good!"
The two exchanged a glance, nodded simultaneously, and said in unison without the slightest hesitation:
"We accept the third test!"
The God of Resentment looked at them, and a hint of genuine satisfaction and approval finally appeared in his scarlet eyes.
"very good."
"I wish you... good luck."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure slowly disappeared into the darkness, vanishing without a trace.
In the entire space of mental resentment, only Tang San and Xiao Wu remained.
The mental pressure, a hundredfold stronger than before, was like a million steel needles, constantly piercing their souls and tearing apart their consciousness.
The third stage has officially begun!
