C178 (1/2)
It's all fake, I said to myself, to make my fear dissipate faster.
”Miss Su Su, the more you are afraid of these things, the more there will be. He is a weakness in your heart, try and see what kind of result he will bring about if you stop being afraid.”
Shuo Yue seemed to have also realized that all the things that had fallen were closing in on me, and wouldn't attack the two of them at all.
Could it be because of my fear that he attacked me alone?
Thinking this way, I pulled out the great sword that I always carried with me and bravely slashed at the disgusting thing beside me.
”Go away! You're not afraid of you! ”
Originally, I had already experienced so much. Regardless of whether it's the Hundred Thousand Mountains, Ghost Tower, or Fengdu Ghost City, they are all places with a slim chance of survival.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Those things seemed to be afraid of my attacks and they all retreated, some of the Blood Corpse actually fled for their lives, who knows where they went.
When I finally overcome my fear, the illusion disappeared.
In front of me is still the West Lake's torrential lake water and the air is still fresh and moist. I took a deep breath and realized that I had really come out.
”Damn, I've finally come out. It really wasn't easy, I almost lost all hope at one point.”
The Tibetan Old Man still stood quietly beside the West Lake, neither commenting nor denying: ”Congratulations, you have won this match.”
Even if we win, it seems that this old man has kept his word. Although we don't know if he was lenient or not, we can still be considered lucky to be able to escape this level of illusion.
In fact, the so-called illusion is to defeat the fear in your hearts. The seven emotions and six desires, in the end, are slowly filled with despair, and many outstanding Spirit Master, because of their final decision, will definitely not be able to come out. From disappointment to despair, they gave up their chance to win.
This Master really has nothing else to do, it's fine to take revenge just by saying that, so why are you using this strange method to probe us?
However, Tibetan Old Man immediately answered the question in my heart, ”You are the juniors that I have chosen, I admire you a lot. Since my only direct disciple has died, you must compensate me and become my disciple.”
After hearing what he said, I still couldn't react. So the reason he gave us these tests was not for revenge, but to select disciples?
None of us expressed our desire to take him as our master. Is it really good for him to act on his own?
Shuo Yue seemed to have already been prepared, he was probably a smart person able to see through the old man's intentions: ”Cough cough, Master, I already have a sect and a teacher, I swear that I will not enter any sect, I am willing to give this precious opportunity to my two friends here, they are both intelligent people, I am sure they are the best candidate to be my disciple.”
Shuo Yue had once again refreshed my view of him, I never thought that such a sincere and honest person would actually be so cunning.
Zhang Ziyuan's reaction was fast, he immediately said: ”Master, I am a demonic spirit cultivator after all, I am probably not suitable to become your secret sect disciple, please forgive me for not being able to fulfil your request.”
As a slow-witted, slower-talking girl, I still don't know what happened.
”En, alright then, I also want to accept a female disciple, your name is Su Su right?”
[You really didn't leave me any chance to express my opinion at all, and now you want me to acknowledge me as your teacher?] Other than the two bad friends who were on the side fanning the flames, Sect Leader of the Secret Sect seemed to value me a lot too.
Of the three people, I was the only one who was caught in the trap of the big bed, why was I the most intelligent in the end? I really don't understand.
”Uh, um, actually, I have a master as well …”
The old man raised an eyebrow. ”Mm, who is your master? Where is the Celestial Village?”
”Ah, this …” How do I have a master, could it be Master Jun Jun Mingzhu? He hadn't even met her, yet she had already revealed her identity.
”Since there isn't any here, obediently acknowledge me as your teacher!” The old man seemed to be impatient. Zhang Ziyuan and Shuo Yue completely ignored me and were on the verge of tears.
Although Zhuo Sang is no longer here, I have a new disciple. This thing can be considered my greeting gift, when I have time, I will come find you. Master has things to do, so I will be leaving first.
I took the item from the old man. It was a square brocade box. When he looked up again, the old man had already disappeared.
”This, this can be considered as having become a disciple?” I am already the disciple of the Secret Sect? ” I still stared at the empty West Lake, as if everything that just happened was just a dream.
