"Oh?"

Sun De swept his gaze across Luo Hao, and was about to say something when he heard him. He turned and looked at Luo Hao, and said with a serious tone: "From the looks of it, you should be a warrior, but your Soul Sea does not have any spiritual energy, so you must have experienced some unforeseen events before right?"

"Elder Sun's eyes are sharp, this disciple's cultivation was previously crippled by someone else."

Luo Hao's eyes flashed with sorrow.

"No wonder."

Sun De's gaze stopped at Luo Hao's body. No one knew what he was thinking.

At this time, Xiao Qin opened his mouth and said, "Sect Master had previously inspected his body, and said that it would be difficult for him to step onto the road of cultivation in this lifetime.

Sun De did not seem to hear Xiao Qin's words and paused for a moment before speaking, "I only know how to refine pills and not medical skills. Furthermore, even Sect Master cannot do anything about it, what can I do?"

After he finished speaking, Luo Hao's heart once again experienced a falling abyss.

Xiao Qin was about to speak again, but Sun De suddenly snorted: "I thought that Sect Master had thought of something good to do with me, to think that you would bring me a cripple."

He spat out the word "cripple" from his mouth.

For some unknown reason, Sun De's speech speed suddenly slowed down.

Even so, these words still made the pain in Luo Hao's heart worse.

"Elder Sun!"

"Whatever, you can go back. He stays here."

Before Xiao Qin could even finish, Sun De's impatience interrupted him. He cupped his fists and laughed, giving Luo Hao a look of encouragement, then turned and left the courtyard door.

After Xiao Qin left the room, Sun De muttered to Luo Hao, "Follow me."

"Yes."

Luo Hao retracted his train of thoughts and followed Sun De in.

He was also determined to start a new life. Even if his life didn't go as he wished, he knew that it had only just begun, and that he still had a long road ahead of him to walk, to the point where he didn't even know where it would end.

Sun De brought Luo Hao to a small hut, and turned to Luo Hao who was behind him and said: "You will stay here from now on."

His tone was filled with impatience.

"Thank you, Elder Sun."

Luo Hao leaned forward slightly and bowed towards Sun De. After this incident, Luo Hao's personality had greatly changed. If it was before, he probably wouldn't have stayed in the Solitary Howling Sect and he definitely wouldn't have been so polite to another person.

However, this change was also a good thing, as it meant that he had matured and become more tenacious. He believed that as long as he could get out of this predicament, he would definitely be reborn.

Seeing Luo Hao's actions, Sun De had a complicated look in his eyes, and said: "You're still calling me Elder Sun? From today onwards, you are my, Sun De's, disciple. From today onwards, you must do your best and not ruin my reputation, do you know that? "

Luo Hao immediately replied: "Yes, Master!"

This was the first time he had called her Master, so she wasn't really used to calling him that.

Sun De acknowledged and then said, "Quickly go in and organize everything. Without my permission, you are not allowed to go out."

With that, Sun De ignored Luo Hao and turned to leave.

After Luo Hao saw Sun De walk far away, he also turned around and entered the small hut. Inside the hut, there was nothing else but a bed.

He still had not recovered from the aftermath of what happened previously. He felt like everything was a dream as he woke up to come to Solitary Howling Sect.

After a while, Luo Hao sighed, he threw his thoughts to the back of his head and started to think about what he should do next.

"Right."

Luo Hao seemed to have thought of something.

"Stone coffin!"

Luo Hao said as he checked his own Soul Sea.

"The sect master had previously inspected my Soul Sea, did he not discover this sarcophagus?"

The more Luo Hao thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.

However, he did not know that the change in his Soul Sea was actually the 'culprit'.

It was this sarcophagus that suddenly appeared within the Soul Sea and completely devoured the spirit energy inside. The mysterious sarcophagus suppressed the inside of the Soul Sea, causing Luo Hao and the others to think that his previous cultivation had been crippled.

"What's the difference between my Soul Sea and a pile of ruins?"

Luo Hao sighed and muttered to himself.

"Eh? Could it be that I am unable to destroy the Soul Sea and recreate the Qi Sea? "

Luo Hao suddenly realised.

In fact, what he said was not without reason. After breaking the rules, warriors were required to first destroy their own Soul Sea and then re-establish a new set of Soul Sea.

However, all the warriors knew that opening a Soul Sea was not an easy task. It had taken a lot of effort for one person to open a Soul Sea, how could they have the courage to destroy it?

Moreover, just the slightest mistake would cause the Soul Sea to be destroyed, and even end up with their martial spirits being destroyed. As a result, there were very few people who dared to make such an attempt.

Luo Hao did not think too much into it, and immediately felt that he had a glimmer of hope. Since he finally had hope, how could he give up?

Luo Hao sat cross legged on the bed, paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and forcefully activated the Heaven-swallowing Technique. Although there was no spirit energy in the Soul Sea, Luo Hao had forcefully absorbed the spirit energy of heaven and earth outside of his body, and cultivators normally absorbed the spirit energy of heaven and earth through the Soul Sea, and then transported it to different parts of his body. However, Luo Hao had directly used his body to absorb the spirit energy of heaven and earth.

The Heaven-swallowing Technique required a lot of spirit energy, so the moment the Heaven-swallowing Technique was activated, Luo Hao felt as if his meridians were about to break, causing him to immediately feel an intense pain. Luo Hao clenched his teeth and let out a gurgling sound, after a while, the blood in his body immediately flowed backwards, and a wave of darkness rushed to his brain, if not for Luo Hao's determination to do this, his meridians would have been broken long ago.

If not for the clothes covering him, one could see the meridians in his entire body bulging rapidly, as if they would rush out of Luo Hao's body in an instant.

Suddenly, the Soul Sea started to react, it was more accurate to say that the sarcophagus reacted, the sarcophagus started to emit buzzing sounds, and the surface of the sarcophagus started to tremble slightly from its initial motionlessness.

It gave off an ancient and obscure feeling, and the buzzing sound also seemed to be saying something.

Following that, Luo Hao's body trembled, he actually wanted to use the backlash to shatter the Soul Sea, following that, the Soul Sea seemed to tremble violently, and looked at Luo Hao with a serious face, his face flushed red, and his eyes closed.

"It should be fine."

Luo Hao muttered. As he said that, the Heaven-swallowing Technique began to reverse its circulation, but he was not aware of the consequences of what he had done.

The Soul Sea still shook incessantly, but the result was not as he had expected. The Soul Sea did not shatter, but the vibrations became weaker and weaker.

This confused Luo Hao greatly, the red light on the sarcophagus suddenly became stronger, and the buzzing sound gradually became stronger, as if the Soul Sea was suppressed by the sarcophagus, and the red light emitted by the sarcophagus started to radiate in all directions, with the sarcophagus as the starting point forming a circle, but the Soul Sea outside the circle was still the same as before, it was no different.

"Bang!"

A loud sound was heard.

Finally, Luo Hao's body could not take it anymore, and fainted before he even saw the change in his Soul Sea with his own eyes.

When Luo Hao woke up, it was already noon of the second day. He opened his eyes and saw Sun De standing beside his bed, looking very angry.

Seeing that Luo Hao had woken up, he scolded: "You really overestimate yourself."

Luo Hao wanted to stand up and speak, but Sun De shouted again: "Lie down, you can't move now."

Hearing these words, Luo Hao naturally did not dare to disobey Sun De, and could only lay down quietly.

"Do you know how important Soul Sea are to a warrior? Yet you actually destroyed your own Soul Sea. If it wasn't for you being so lucky, I'm afraid you would have already lost your primordial spirit. "

Sun De spoke with a gentle tone.

"Master, I'm sorry. I caused you trouble on the first day."

Luo Hao's face was full of guilt.

For some reason, Sun De sighed, and after being silent for a while, he said, "How can I not know how you feel? Back then, I was the same as you. "

Sun De seemed to have sunk into deep memories.

At that time, I was the same as you are now, but later on, I obtained a great opportunity and finally embarked on the path of martial dao. However, my cultivation was always stuck at the bottleneck at the peak of the Soul Strengthening Realm, and in the end, I helplessly started to learn alchemy. "

"Then Master, have you broken through now?"

Luo Hao asked.

Sun De was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "I'm afraid that I will never be able to break through to the Soul-Breaking Realm in my life."

Seeing Sun De frown, Luo Hao tactfully did not continue to entangle with this topic. Instead, he changed the topic to himself: "Master, can I really not cultivate anymore?"

Sun De looked meaningfully at Luo Hao, and said: "There is nothing absolute in the world, everything is moving, and there is not a single layer of things that doesn't change. Don't be discouraged, maybe the time is not right yet."

Lu An was overjoyed when he heard this. Sun De's words had undoubtedly given him a lot of confidence.

"However, you must not do the foolish thing of destroying the Soul Sea in the future."

Sun De warned.

"Actually, I want to …"

"I know what you are thinking, your Soul Sea is very strange, it is like a restriction has been placed on it, it doesn't have any spirit energy at all, so you want to break through the restrictions and stand back up, re-establishing your Soul Sea, is that it?"

Before Luo Hao could finish, he was interrupted by Sun De.

Luo Hao looked at Sun De in shock, he did not expect his idea to be so easily guessed by Sun De, and immediately nodded his head.

"Master, is this not feasible?"

Sun De immediately harrumphed, "It's not like there are no precedents like this. I once saw someone doing this in an ancient book."

"Did they succeed?"

Luo Hao suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Hmph, what do you think?"

Sun De angrily rebuked again.

Finished speaking, Luo Hao lowered his head in disappointment.

Seeing Luo Hao's expression, Sun De didn't continue speaking. He didn't know why but he felt an inexplicable sense of goodwill towards such a sudden disciple; perhaps it was because he saw his own shadow back then on.

"Your body is fine, you just need to rest for two days. Don't think about staying in bed forever. Since you came here, of course you have something to do."

Sun De turned his back on Luo Hao as he spoke, and after Luo Hao replied, Sun De directly walked out.
