In the white space, Li Jun that was feeling good about his performance so far, suddenly felt his vision blur and the next moment when he appeared, he was standing on pillar.
In the beginning he was marveling at the beautiful sight, his eyes where almost shining, but this did not last long.
He was overcome with fear as he quickly tried to control himself from shaking as he lowered himself to the surface he was standing.
"Damn! Shit! What kind of bullshit is this?" For him to loose his cool like this and looked into the distant horizon with a burst of fury in his chest.
"What the hell is this? I will definitely die from this height!" In this moment he really had completely realized he was still just a kid and weak. Even his will was not strong enough to compare to those that had visited the wilderness and battled against monsters. But he was not to be blamed, after all he had nothing to base a belief or will on, he was too weak.
Looking at the clouds around his feet, he was not happy rather his body was shaking crazily, and the next instance, a crazy laughter sounded from all directions.
"Ha!ha!ha!… Coward!" Regardless of whether this was an illusion or true, he did not care at all his body also did not stop shaking.
His thoughts even started to drift to the darkness, and he shouted with his teeth chattering,"Damn! Who did I offend in my last life, even in times of death I am surrounded by mad men!"
His shout did reverberate far and wide and every time an echo could be heard, as for the laughter, it become sinister, but with the echoing of the words Li Jun had just said, it eventually stopped.
"Yeah! That is it! If a man is going to die just shut up and let him have his peace!" He did not stop shouting, but even so, he was afraid.
The next moment the pillar he was on was revealed due to the wind making the clouds move slightly. He could not see it from where he was standing, but someone else observing from a far, would be shocked.
This pillar was just too long, and it was just slightly inferior to the ones in the Universe Hall, for the very reason it lacked the eternal and sacred aura.
But it still gave of a feeling of vastness.
When the wind blew by, it was the clouds, but the next time, he was incapable of withstanding it,. and without anywhere to hold on, he was being slowly pushed to the brink.
Even though he was not screaming yet, as the last trace of manliness remained in him, he tears where clearly rolling down his eyes with some snort on his nose.
The situation in itself was dramatic, but the moment he was thrown off the pillar by the wind, the manly nature was completely crushed and he yelled, screamed and cursed all he could until he realized even his voice had become horse and he had yet to reach the ground.
Even though his heart had been pounding so hard, he still managed to shift his gaze towards the massive pillar and his focus shifted.
Even though he was not in a good state of mind, he could not help but be shocked at he experienced transformations, and this was on different sword moves. They come from basics and eventually evolved into something like beyond even his comprehension, and it was not just swords, even basic boxing, and movements, transformed into something from nothing.
He was caught up in a daze the whole time, and as his body continued to drop, the information that flashed by his eyes become vast, he could not support it, as such he passed out.
The moment this happened, everything slowed down, and in a few hours he opened his eyes but they seemed blank, before they regained some life in them.
Yes, they where just like eyes of a dead fish, and when he recovered, some information about what he had seen on the pillar started to appear in his head, this gave him a headache.
"Best stop thinking about this issue at the moment." He thought to himself as he looked to the right side he could see thin trees, they where the same size as the grass he was sleeping on.
He remembered falling from the pillar, but now he was on the grasslands, without any injuries, only his spirit was worn out.
"In the moment of life and death do you really understand someone. I have no mentality of a strong person, but this experience seems to have changed me greatly, turns out there are other horrors in life other than death and physical pain. In the grand scheme of things, only an idiot cares about things such as their image." When he thought of this, he failed to realize that the mood around him had changed greatly.
The feeling he gave off was unique, it had some feel to it, that he was indifferent to death. This feeling lasted for a while before it vanished, and his intelligent index rose sharply barely reaching the 60th level.
That was not the only thing that had changed, his outlook on life had changed too, he was no longer restricted by his previous thoughts, especially after realizing sometimes you can even wish to die and it might not happen.
Walking up from the grass, he started to move towards the place that had attracted his attention. It was the only valley in this grasslands, for whatever reason, he had a feeling the place was different.
When he took a step forward, even though he was only a mortal, a cool breeze seemed to spread out, but this was just something anyone would overlook, considering it did not have much impact on the area around him.
His figure however did not increase the pace, he just moved slowly, this was until a massive cliff appeared before him, but he could see even from a far this cliff was not naturally formed.
Other than the dilapidated stone houses around each side of the cliff, that resembled a sword scar, left behind by a strong expert, a wooden cabin was standing at the very edge of the scar.
He was intimidated by the sword scar, but not the pressure from the place, as non existed, it was as though this sword scar was not threatening.
What made him doubt that was the fast he could detect no vegetation, especially grass, even a single one growing from the soul in the valley.
When his figure approached the valley, he could feel a gloom atmosphere, it was also like an area separated from the others.
He was thoughtful,"Did this sword scar manage to separate this valley from the rest of the space, but this does not make sense.
He was indeed attracted by something else instead, when he approached the valley, he could see outside the cottage, small blades of grass where covering everything, this was different from the other areas in the valley.
"This cottage sure is different." As he spoke, he approached it without even thinking twice. He could feel it was extraordinary, and thus willing to get close and find out, why it was different from the rest of the valley.
When his feet landed on the greenery, in the compound the cottage was located, the gloom vanished replaced by a soothing sensation that run past his body.
He looked towards the door of the cottage, hesitant, he still moved forward. Since his fall from the pillar part of him had been changed, or some wiring in his brain redone, after all he was moving without any fear.
He could feel this change, as much as he did not know why it had come into play, he decided to let things play out and observe himself more.
Without even thinking twice, he opened the door before stepping in, and in this moment he could feel the refreshing feeling spreading further in his body. He felt even his worn out spirit was made up for and his eyes become sharper from the dull appearance.
"What is this? How can it be able to accomplish this?" He was curious at the same time his legs did not stop moving forward, until he saw a table in the middle of the room.
To his surprise, he could see what resembled human hair, it was on the table and it had some unique radiance about it.
Approaching the table, he realized the unique energy was becoming richer, this made his figure pause.
"Is this human hair? How could it be the source of this energy?" The energy around the hair was golden and when he approached it, he felt his knowledge blind spot at this point.
"Is there such an expert, whose hair is able to repair the injuries and even strengthen my spirit by just being close to it." He wondered.
"More importantly, why is this hair placed in this place?" He placed his hand towards it, but nothing happened.
He then went ahead and entered the internal introspect state, at this point, things changed real fast.
His face changed greatly, and he was overwhelmed by shock, "This is!"
