Su Ming could not describe what he saw. Perhaps he did not even see anything.
Yet he was still struggling to see clearly, even though he did not even know himself just what he wanted to see. The world before him was black; there was no light.
"Do I desire to see light..?" Su Ming mumbled a question that no one cared to answer. There was no answer to this, neither did he think that he required an answer any longer.
Because he suddenly understood. What he needed was neither light nor darkness.
"What I want to see… is clarity… I want to see the naked truth…"
Su Ming closed his eyes, but not just his physical eyes. He also shut down his thoughts, his mind, and his soul.
It was as if that slit that had been forcibly opened could no longer withstand the pressure and finally chose to close up once again, as if he had just struggled up to the edges of the abyss and lifted his head to see the world outside before he fell back inside.
Even so, he still managed to see something.
