#887 - Chapter 887: Facing the Inner Demon
Boom!
As soon as Wu Wei expressed his desire to elevate his strength to the demigod level, the supreme Abyss Mother quickly fulfilled his request.
The black and crimson vortex slowly rotated in the sky, and then, under the traction of countless condensed darkness, a black lightning bolt was created out of thin air, descending directly upon Wu Wei.
The instant Wu Wei was struck by this lightning bolt, his body was instantly shattered.
But there's no need to worry.
Now that Wu Wei possessed the Body of Sin, he was essentially an immortal being within the Abyss.
In addition to the Abyss Mother's favor, Wu Wei possessed extra immortality.
Even if ten thousand antimatter bombs exploded in front of Wu Wei, as long as he was in the Endless Abyss, he would not truly die.
Therefore, the reason this lightning bolt split Wu Wei's body, shattering it, was primarily to better改造 Wu Wei's soul.
The reason for doing so was that Wu Wei's soul had certain special characteristics....
"This..."
"Is this the state of the soul leaving the body?"
"It's truly magical!"
At this moment, Wu Wei's soul was standing alone in the Endless Abyss.
Nothing around him could interact with him.
This magical state was a first for Wu Wei.
In the past, he had only experienced his spirit leaving his body, but the separation of the soul was a first.
However, just as Wu Wei was marveling at the wonders of the Abyss....
Boom boom boom!
As countless black lightning bolts struck Wu Wei's soul, Wu Wei's soul instantly felt a sharp pain.
Then....
[Your divine fire has begun to ignite.]
"Uh."
Seeing this message, Wu Wei seemed a little dazed in his soul state.
Then he looked up at the black and crimson vortex in the sky.
"Is this... the end?"
The Abyss Mother's recovery was also very simple.
That's right.
Wu Wei's advancement ceremony was that simple.
To be precise, the advancement ceremony of the Endless Abyss was this simple.
In the harsh environment of the Endless Abyss, the longer the advancement ceremony, the more likely it was to attract danger.
Therefore, under this impetus, no Abyss creature would choose a high-class, time-consuming advancement ceremony.
Although this was not very magical, it was very realistic.
At least, very Abyssal....
However, due to Wu Wei's lack of understanding of high-level transcendent beings, he forgot a very important point.
That is, his current divine fire was only beginning to ignite.
The real test had not even begun!
——————————
"I thought I would have a super long advancement ceremony."
"In the end, it's just being struck by lightning a few times."
Wu Wei complained while commanding the nearby Sinful Matter to gather around and shape a new body for himself.
"I was expecting it for nothing, I thought..."
"Wait!"
Suddenly, just as Wu Wei's body was reshaped and merged with his soul, Wu Wei was stunned.
Because countless phantasms appeared before his eyes!
These phantasms flickered constantly, constantly reminding Wu Wei of his past.
"Stop, stop!"
Looking at these memory phantasms merging into his mind, Wu Wei shouted.
But unfortunately, these so-called memory phantasms showed no signs of stopping at all.
On the contrary, the speed at which they merged into Wu Wei's mind was constantly accelerating.
"This... is..."
"The memory of the day my parents left."
"This... this is my first meeting with Xiao Xue."
"This is... the first time I learned to play chess."
"This is..."
Suddenly, Wu Wei was stunned.
Because in this endless stream of phantasms, a weak, blurry figure appeared before his eyes.
This figure was sitting cross-legged in the room with Wu Wei's familiar chessboard.
"Ah, little Wu Wei, you're here, cough cough."
"Quick, sit down."
"Cough cough cough cough."
With a violent cough, Wu Wei moved his legs and ran over anxiously.
And at that moment, Wu Wei was surprised to find that his appearance had returned to his childhood.
The environment around him had also returned to its original state.
But just as Wu Wei was still observing his surroundings, a soft voice awakened Wu Wei's thoughts.
"Little Wu Wei, what are you looking at?"
"Won't you come and play a game?"
Wu Wei raised his head, and a gentle woman, weak and thin, was looking at him with a smile.
She had long black hair, and a face very similar to Su Yingxue's.
However, on her originally snow-white neck, there were terrible bruises.
This bruise indicated one thing.
That is, her already thin body was suffering from the torment of illness, and the previous cough was the greatest manifestation of being terminally ill....
She.
Was dying.
————————————
"Okay."
Hearing the words of this gentle woman, Wu Wei lowered his head.
He silently came to the woman and sat down.
He was silent for a long, long time.
"Then let's play a game."
Wu Wei's hand reached to the side of the chessboard, trying to pick up a chess piece.
But.
At this time, he couldn't control his hand.
Because his hand was constantly trembling....
————————
Like other creatures, the process of igniting the divine fire, even for the Abyss Lord Wu Wei, was something he had to experience.
However, as the Abyss Lord, Wu Wei didn't know.
In fact, igniting the divine fire is a very dangerous thing in the eyes of ordinary creatures!
Because the essence of igniting the divine fire is that the person igniting the divine fire needs to use the divine fire to light up their sea of mind, so as to see clearly the "self".
Then continue to move forward on the road to achieving greater strength.
The meaning represented by this initial divine fire is actually a symbol of "the road to the future"!
The reason why this matter is full of danger is because the moment the divine fire is ignited, the creature needs to face its own sea of mind.
During this process, everyone.
Remember, it's everyone.
Needs to face their own heart!
And this process, in the outside world, is also known as:
Facing the inner demons!
——————————
And now, Wu Wei is in a state of facing his inner demons.
And what is different from the past is that when he is in this state, he is actually isolated and helpless.
He.
Can only rely on himself!
Pa!
As the black piece fell, the woman opposite Wu Wei smiled.
