"That's All You've Got?"
The sensation lasted for a while, then stopped.
Luo Zhen listened carefully, trying to glean any useful information.
However, the surroundings were eerily quiet.
At that moment, spiritual energy surged in, enveloping his body and lifting him up.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of wind could be faintly heard.
At this moment, Luo Zhen felt extremely agitated.
After torturing myself for so long, why did I have to stop at this crucial moment?
It really does have some major problem.
Can't I just push myself a little harder at this crucial moment?!
Of course, despite his anger, he dared not be careless in the slightest.
I have no idea who these people are or what their purpose is. My spiritual power is restricted, and my will is bound. I am at their mercy.
I can only hope that I can find an opportunity.
This journey continued for some time.
Not long after, the sound of wind breaking stopped, and the spiritual energy around them dissipated. They must have arrived at a somewhat cold and gloomy place.
"Father, he should be almost done."
The sound rang out, and upon closer listening, it sounded somewhat familiar, yet I couldn't immediately recall where I had heard it before.
Luo Zhen was closely monitoring the related responses.
At this moment, another, even more powerful will descended upon his body, as if it could see right through him. Everything within him was laid bare under this will.
Luo Zhen was extremely nervous.
If the power that has been accumulating within me during this period is discovered, I'm afraid...
"Good."
An aged voice rang out, tinged with a hint of surprised satisfaction:
"This body now even possesses some of the aura of a special physique; it is truly unique."
"Special physique?" Luo Zhen was taken aback.
He was clearly just an ordinary human, always envying others' special physical attributes but unable to possess them himself.
"Could it be... that I'm about to awaken a special constitution?!"
Upon realizing this, Luo Zhen felt a surge of joy.
He never expected that he could possess a special physique; he knew then that he was no ordinary person!
But the joy was fleeting; the thought of their current situation immediately dampened their spirits.
"No, I must survive, no matter what!"
At this moment, Luo Zhen's will to survive was at its strongest.
It's been so long already, there's no way I'll wake up underground. I can only rely on myself!
As she was thinking about it, the object used to cover her private parts was removed from her lower body.
Immediately afterwards, the old man said:
"That's all?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Zhen swayed on the ground, expressing his strong protest against this assessment.
So little? You call him small?!
He simply didn't believe it.
Back then, Liu Qingyan had told him, "Good brother, Qingyan has never seen anything so big."
"Damn old man, let me go if you dare! Let's have a fair fight!"
Of course, he couldn't say these words out loud now; Luo Zhen could only roar in his heart.
The other party, however, seemed to ignore this reaction.
After that, there were no other sounds, but suddenly a strong smell of blood, which could be smelled even through face coverings, and a faint stench of fishiness filled the air.
Time passed little by little.
He didn't know exactly what the other party was busy with, so Luo Zhen stayed quietly on the ground.
Having already freed yourself from one constraint, why not take the opportunity to free yourself from the other one as well?!
Could it be that he's afraid he'll see something?
Despite his thoughts, unable to speak or see, Luo Zhen could only silently ponder the possible scenarios.
And how can I find an opportunity to make an escape possible?
Suddenly, a force swirled around him, pulling him to one spot.
It still seemed to be some kind of liquid, but it felt much thicker. It dripped down little by little, completely engulfing me, leaving only my face exposed.
Then, the aged voice rang out again:
"Young man, it is a great honor for you to offer your body to me."
"Now, is there anything else you'd like to say?"
The sound wasn't loud, but to Luo Zhen it was no less than a thunderclap.
Luo Zhen felt his mind go blank for a moment.
This damn thing, after tormenting me for so long, it was all to try and possess me?!
Possession is not an uncommon occurrence, but according to the information he had gathered, if one encounters it without countermeasures, there is almost no chance of survival!
I never imagined I'd run into this myself.
Now, apart from the covering on his face, he is completely naked, unable to use any means, let alone spiritual power or willpower.
How to deal with this?!
Even that unique power, which falls under the category of physical strength, probably wouldn't be of much use.
For a moment, a deep sense of despair rose in Luo Zhen's heart.
At that moment, he desperately wished he could just pass out and wake up underground.
"It's quite calm. Since you've accepted it, let's begin."
The old man's voice rang out again, instantly turning Luo Zhen's despair into anger. If his body hadn't been restricted by spiritual power, he would have trembled with rage.
Accepting the size.
If he were given even the slightest opening to speak, he would definitely launch into a tirade against the other party.
Unfortunately, despite his anger, the other party seemed completely unconcerned about his reaction.
At this moment, the liquid around me seemed to begin to flow.
Despite losing his senses, Luo Zhen could still clearly feel an immense and astonishing power emanating from nearby him.
Puff!
Suddenly, something abruptly pierced into his body.
The intense pain instantly stiffened Luo Zhen's entire body, and his mouth twitched violently.
"The transfer of power is a very painful process. I will allow your soul some more time. You must persevere, otherwise, if your soul shatters, you will not even have the chance to be reincarnated."
The old man's voice rang out, resounding within Luo Zhen's sea of consciousness.
Upon hearing this, Luo Zhen nearly broke his back molars.
They talk a good game, but all they do is suffer in order to reap the benefits.
Don't give him the chance, or he'll pay back a thousandfold!
After the old man finished speaking, he began to channel his power into Luo Zhen's body.
In the past, he would have first possessed the soul before transferring the power.
But then, the pain would have to be endured alone, and given my current strength, it would inevitably be even more painful than last time.
It's not worth it.
It would be better to let Luo Zhen suffer first, and then seize his body once the power has been transferred sufficiently.
As power surged in, even though Luo Zhen's physical body had greatly improved compared to before, his body still swelled up under the influx of such immense power. His muscles and meridians were constantly breaking and snapping under the frenzied infusion of power.
All around, amidst the dark red blood, rich vital energy continuously flowed in, repairing the damage caused by the influx of power.
At the same time, the power within Luo Zhen's body, which had been continuously increasing, became even stronger with this process. Furthermore, wherever the power spread, damage and destruction exhibited an astonishing rate of recovery.
As if sensing such power and recovery, a glint flashed in the old man's cloudy eyes, and he became even more excited.
"Good lad, you were born for this old man!"
