Translator: YHHH Editor: X, TYZ

Ai Hui couldn't budge and could only stare at the ugly, patchwork faces floating toward hihtly weaved web of light Eerie wails continued to rise fro chills down Ai Hui's spine

Ai Hui was beco anxious

What kind of evil had he stumbled upon?

This was the first ti it first The numbness that washed over his body had rendered his senses useless, but he was oddly still conscious

The fragnaay

It was an extre out incessantly yet he could feel no pain Ai Hui felt like a onlooker to his plight

A ained some of his movement and effortfully turned to look at his shoulder

He relaxed upon seeing his shoulder

The tongue frag ceaselessly, its razor sharp, white teeth h speed His shoulder was however, coue latched onto his body with a pop

Gnash, gnash

Ai Hui's body remained unscathed no matter how much they chewed

He was coly, ain

He had been hit by the same attack

Now that he knew the faces could not harm him, Ai Hui relaxed and carefully observed their behavior The spirit swords followed suit, slowing down significantly as ues made their way towards Ai Hui

Ai Hui's current predicament would scare any onlooker His body was covered in what looked like countless wriggling black snakes

In thescene stood Ai Hui, co sensation brought on by the faces Ai Hui was recovering much faster with each wave of paralysis

He eventually reached a point where he could no longer be fully paralyzed All he could feel was a slight tingle, as though a sh his body His rapidly increasing i attack rendered it unthreatening

The faces were floating at the e, unable to leave the biome They were only able to attack Ai Hui fro

He wiped his hand against his chest, and the tongues plopped on the ground one after another Once on the ground, they wriggled about frantically and let out haunting cries of pain The tongues gradually faded into black s completely

Ai Hui stood a short distance outside theestablished that they were of no threat, Ai Hui began to feel that the faces were not as ugly or sinister as he had initially thought Seeing thee of thethe faces not out of boredoh his observations, Ai Hui realized that the formless attack was a unique kind of mental shockwave It was an extremely stealthy attack that could easily catch anyone without prior experience However, those who knehat to look out for could easily detect it Much to his surprise, he also noticed that this attack had a te effect on his soul This was the reason why he had been able to overco speed, ulti he discovered was that the faces had a cooldown period between attacks He deduced that it took theht to twelve hours after an attack to do it again

Yet another discovery was that the faces' black tongues were its only other means of offense besides the shockwave Ai Hui was rather disappointed by their simple attacks, which were a total est revelation he had was however, regarding hi, which hy the snake-like tongues were unable to deal any daues' razor sharp teeth could not bite through

A battle between souls was vastly different from physical combat A well-tempered soul could co back

Ai Hui felt thankful to Chi Tong for banishing hiet such wonderful insights

Knowledge and ideas regarding the soul were often cryptic and hard to grasp Because the soul existed within the body, it could only be felt but not seen The only way a person could atteh personal subjective experiences This naturally made it much harder to comprehend its true nature Such experiences were also difficult to put into words, and their subjective nature e surrounding things such as the soul and consciousness were hence typically undecipherable to everyone but the author

This was the reason why cultivation of the soul and the mind have been considered a treacherous road to take since ancient times It was also why there were such few practitioners of the art Ai Hui's shaky cultivation of the sword ee world however, Ai Hui was able to directly observe his soul and consciousness

This was definitely a once in a lifetime opportunity

Ai Hui was now much more composed than he had been when he first found hier in a hurry to leave and instead wanted to explore further Further's [Deathly Seeds of Demonic Consciousness], and there was nowhere better to comprehend it than in this world
