Chapter 494: Chapter 296: Memory and the Seven Demonic Scriptures

“Chen Sheng” lifted his foot to take a step, trying to walk down the mountain peak.

But as soon as he took the step,

It seemed like his body was aware of his “intention.”

The pain suddenly intensified.

Making his body almost lose balance.

“Chen Sheng” tried to breathe.

“Eh──”

But as soon as he opened his mouth,

Only intermittent, gasping sounds could be heard.

A terrifying force that made resistance impossible was pulling at his consciousness.

As if it wanted to tear him to pieces.

He collapsed to the ground.

The foreign consciousness examined Chen Sheng’s memories.

Despair,

Gradually arose within him.

For now, the Heritage Stone was not with Chen Sheng.

It wasn’t even in Yihe Gate.

After touching the Heritage Stone, Chen Sheng hadn’t claimed ownership, but returned it to Li Wuji.

If nothing went wrong, the Heritage Stone should be with Sun Yihe now.

Sun Yihe was far away in Kyoto.

Could he really make it there in his current state?

The pain grew stronger every second.

Could he really… endure it?

Clearly,

This was impossible.

When “Chen Sheng” finally managed to stabilize his body, preparing to take another step,

Next second,

Splash!

The intense pulling sensation made him completely lose control of his body.

He fell to the ground again.

“No…No!”

His exertion caused his face to distort intensely.

His green tendons in his arms flailing wildly on the ground.

The solid ground was like tofu, plowed into countless deep grooves.

The lines of desire kept expanding.

That force tearing at his soul was almost unbearable for him.

His memories started to blur.

His consciousness was like a lonely sailboat, trapped in the midst of a terrifying storm.

One wrong move, and he would be instantly crushed.

“I… I won’t accept this.”

“Who am I…”

“What is it…”

Now he barely had any strength left to move.

He lay helplessly on the ground.

His lips trembled slightly, seemingly trying to say something.

But there was not a single sound.

Soon,

This unknown foreign consciousness was torn to shreds.

It was like an unknown guest.

Until the very end.

He couldn’t remember who he was.

The radiance in the pure white pupils gradually dimmed.

Then,

It gently closed.

The origin]

In the end,

Without a third of the memories,

His original rapid breathing gradually slowed.

His furrowed brows began to relax.

After the foreign consciousness had vanished, the force that had torn it to pieces disappeared as well.

Chen Sheng’s consciousness returned to his physical body.

The initial chaos had subsided.

Only the barely visible lines of desire on Chen Sheng’s surface continued to extend.

One hour.

Two hours.

Perhaps it was because of upgrading five times simultaneously,

The speed of the lines of desire expanding was slightly slower.

Until now,

It had only covered half of Chen Sheng’s body.

Fortunately, the speed was slow but not stagnant.

The night passed quietly.

Halfway,

Zhou Li mustered the courage to climb the mountain once.

Though Chen Sheng had warned him before not to climb the mountain easily,

The events of Chen Sheng’s cultivation practice earlier had been too strange.

Be it the eerie glow,

Or the laughter enveloping the skies above Yihe Gate,

They deepened Zhou Li’s worries time and time again.

Ultimately,

He chose to come to the Main Peak and observe Chen Sheng from a distance.

After confirming that there were no abnormal signs in Chen Sheng’s life, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the lines on Chen Sheng’s body,

Zhou Li had seen them before.

He knew that they were due to Chen Sheng’s cultivation techniques, so he didn’t worry much.

The old man quietly descended the mountain.

From start to finish, he tried his best not to make any noise, fearing that he would bother Chen Sheng.

The night silently passed.

Until late at night.

“Huu──”

Chen Sheng, who had been quietly lying on the ground, took a deep breath.

His eyelashes trembled slightly.

Soon,

His consciousness awakened once more.

He was not aware of how the foreign consciousness had been vanquished by his panel upgrades.

But as soon as he woke up, he realized what had happened.

And the reason was,

Naturally, the memories that had popped up in his mind.

The foreign consciousness had been directly torn to shreds by the power of the panel upgrades.

Although its consciousness had completely vanished,

Some of the broken pieces of memory remained in Chen Sheng’s mind.

Thus,

Upon waking,

Chen Sheng saw some memories that didn’t belong to him.

To investigate the origin of this so-called foreign consciousness and whether there were other secrets to the Seven Demon Mental Method,

He had just woken up and hadn’t even checked his body yet, but started to review these memories.

And the scenes in the memories,

Were absolutely horrifying.

The first scene.

In front of him, there was only endless darkness.

Below him was a soft sensation.

A pungent smell of blood filled his nose.

Pain washed over his entire body like waves.

Experiencing this memory, Chen Sheng felt as if he was there.

He hadn’t had a feeling like this in a long time.

These sensations were so awful that Chen Sheng’s brows furrowed somewhat.

But he didn’t leave.

Instead, he continued to observe the memory.

“Huu──”

“Inhale──”

The master of the memory seemed to want to breathe,

But his mouth was covered by someone else.

The warm exhaled breath carried a lingering fragrance mixed with the smell of blood.

“Don’t move.”

“Don’t move, understand?”

“You’ll be alright.”

A gentle and soft female voice whispered in the ear.

The voice was soft,

Even faint,

But when he heard it,

Unknowingly, his mind found some comfort.

His eyelids kept twitching, trying to open his eyes, which were glued together with blood.

A tearing pain came over him,

But it didn’t stop him from acting.
