Chapter 212: The powerful Sect master -2
The Sect Master chuckled, leaning back on his throne.
“Intimidate you, puny ant? No, I’m simply enlightening you, opening your eyes to the reality of your situation,”
The dark space felt heavy for a moment as Bai Lung absorbed the information.
Reincarnated… Hated by the heavens… A cheat that devours souls? The old man seems to know about him.
The Sect Master continued, “And as for the ‘Invincible System’, let me warn you… It’s quite troublesome, you know. The more you use it, the more it wants to drain your soul,”
Bai Lung clenched his fists, trying to remain calm, “And what is this Tao-Yi you keep mentioning? You said I don’t have it.”
The Sect Master chuckled once more.
“That’s correct, little junior. Tao-Yi is the essence of a person’s being, their true nature. Something you seem to lack, as a product of reincarnation… Tao-yi is the mother of Soul, consciousness…You are essentially a being without a proper soul or well manifested soul. You are nothing but a partially conscious husk who will never reach the truth.
Tao-yi is the reason one has a proper soul, powerful consciousness, X, and ohm.
Consciousness is the base element for the formation of Tao-Yi, a unique essence present in all beings, the one that gives you your unique personality and existence.
The ‘X’ refers to the unknown, the potential, the endless amount of possibilities waiting to manifest once someone obtains consciousness, a vital to reach primordial.
‘Ohm’ is the sound of creation, the element of destiny itself, and the vibration of all.
Till now you have lived a proper life because you are from a lower realm but once you hit the nihility realm your progression will hit rock bottom since you don’t possess Ohm and ‘X’ ”
Hearing all this, Bai Lung was silent, unable to fathom a single word coming from this old man.
So, he was nothing but a puppet with a deformed soul? The system is nothing but a means for someone else to nourish him and devour him?
So, he is basically a human pill cod some immortal?
Bai Lung refused to believe it.
“You lack a root, You don’t have a proper source of origin not to mention you are in the Ensoulment realm but you haven’t unlocked your Soul Sea,” The Sect Master added.
“Soul Sea?” Bai Lung repeated feeling confused.
“Soul sea refers to 8 seas of soul, that can strengthen one’s soul once you reach the Ensoulment realm you should be about to awaken your soul sea…
The soul originates from 8 spiritual elements which are classified as seas, they are:-
1) Sea of perception
2) Sea of Heavenly book
3) Sea of Tome
4) sea of origin roots
5) sea of authority
6) sea of balance
7) sea of fate and destiny
8) sea of Truth ”
Bai Lung felt a pang of unease in his chest. He hadn’t expected this.
To be told that he was trash in a way that it felt like a blow to his identity.
The Sect Master saw the turmoil on Bai Lung’s face and smiled coldly. “You see now, don’t you? You think you are strong because you have some kind of power-up that gives you unparalleled powers… But the truth is, everything you have achieved this far, it is not truly yours,” the Old man said, his words dripping with condescension.
Bai Lung’s mind was racing, struggling to wrap his mind around all this.
He felt vulnerable, exposed… As if his very existence was nothing more than a cosmic joke.
Bai Lung’s mind was a storm of emotions.
He felt anger, frustration, and a gnawing sense of helplessness. But amidst the chaos, a steely resolve began to form.
He wouldn’t let the Sect Master see his turmoil.
He had to remain composed, at least outwardly.
“So, what now?” Bai Lung asked, his voice steady despite the tempest within.
“You have enlightened me. What’s your next move? Going to strip me of my so-called power?”
The Sect Master leaned forward, his eyes gleaming with a predatory light. “You misunderstand, puny ant. I’m not here to strip you of anything. I’m here to offer you a choice.”
“A choice?” Bai Lung’s skepticism was palpable upon hearing the word of the sect master
“And what choice is that?” he asked curiously.
“You can continue on your current path,” the Sect Master said, his tone almost conversational, “blindly following the whims of the Invincible System, letting it drain your soul until there’s nothing left… The soul can allow you to fight against anyone below nihility realm Or…” he paused, letting the weight of his words sink in, creating that dramatic effect for suspense.
” or what? ” Bai Lung subconsciously asked.
” Or… You can awaken Tao-Yi yourself, the girl brought you here for that,” he said looking at Bai Lung.
“I don’t know why that girl opened herself to you, since I can’t see your past, I will let it be a mystery in my mind… However trial of souls is a trial, that can allow one to strengthen one’s soul, and increase its cultivation but a soul can only enter the trials once,
But there is more to it, it holds the power of truth if you can comprehend it, it can help you awaken Tao-Yi and regain your ‘sole’ existence but… ”
“But… What? If you are telling me such information, I believe you are going to grant me the opportunity or you may be a sadist, then again… If you are going to let me, then what is the carrot the rabbit wants?”
“What do I want? Don’t make me laugh, you aren’t in a position to offer anything to me, even your existence is nothing more than a pollution to me,” The sect master uttered.
“Then?”
“Well that’s true you have nothing to give me, but, there is something you can do… ” The Sect master uttered.
