High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 248 - 211: The Erased Dream, Cataclysm Approaches!
Scalp tingling.
In an instant, Su Mu only felt a chill down his back, as if he had touched upon so terrifying truth. This ti, the feeling was stronger than ever before.
The mory of the dream, which he vividly rembered just a mont ago, seed to have been forcibly erased by an invisible hand from his mind, and this ti, he was clearly aware of it.
But this was just the first ti he noticed it, not necessarily the first ti it happened.
Perhaps it had happened many tis before, perhaps that’s why he couldn’t rember the contents of his dreams previously.
Even the inability to control his own mory, casually erased by a mysterious force of unknown origin, made Su Mu feel a sense of creeps.
"Not much ti left?"
Su Mu seed to repeat this phrase, then closed his eyes to try and recall, but his mind was blank, with the mory of the dream completely missing.
What was the force that erased his mory? What was its source?
Was it man-made, or sothing else...
Could it be a Martial Saint?
As his thoughts rapidly circulated, countless conjectures appeared in Su Mu’s mind.
"Is it really possible for rely a Martial Saint to erase a person’s mory out of thin air?"
Su Mu’s breathing beca rapid.
Why him in particular?
With chaotic thoughts, the information Su Mu could grasp was really too little, making it impossible for him to see any clues, so he forced himself to calm down imdiately.
Once his thoughts were a bit calr, Su Mu began to recall every strange dream.
Ti and again.
Su Mu vaguely grasped sothing.
The critical juncture lay between the fourth and fifth tis. The first few tis, Su Mu could only rember what he did in the dream, completely unable to rember information about the other party, including dialogue.
But on the fifth ti, Su Mu began to be able to rember the words of this student of his.
"Right, teacher, you seed to ntion the Observation Technique before? I think I found one, let it be a gift for you today."
And so he really obtained a piece of Incomplete Crystal containing the "Crystal Visualization Technique", which was now quietly lying in his mind.
Before the fifth ti, Su Mu had consistently thought he was simply dreaming, that the student in the dream was just a product of his imagination, nonexistent and fictitious.
But after the fifth dream, Su Mu suddenly realized that none of this was false, and perhaps there really did exist such a person in the world.
So, why couldn’t he retain any mories of the other party from the previous occasions?
Su Mu fell into deep thought.
"Right, teacher, you seed to ntion the Observation Technique before? I think I found one, let it be a gift for you today."
"Not much ti left?"
Repeating these two sentences over and over, Su Mu grasped sothing once more.
In any case, he had no mory of himself ntioning the Observation Technique; whether he ntioned it or not wasn’t actually important. What was important was that he had obtained the technique, which was clearly sothing the other party wanted to give him.
What was his student’s intention in giving him the Observation Technique?
What was the purpose of the Observation Technique?
The Observation Technique was a thod for cultivating spiritual power; it was used to enhance spiritual power.
"So, is my student reminding to quickly enhance my spiritual power?"
Su Mu’s eyes slightly brightened.
If this is true, then based on this point, the ti period between the fourth and fifth occasions, which was also when he left the Giant’s Cave and departed from the Lin Family exchange convention, could be traced back.
During this period, his strength advanced by leaps and bounds, after which a certain amount of ti settled in.
Tantai Yan ntioned that the Giant’s Blood contained the massive spiritual power of the giant during its lifeti, yet he wasn’t affected by the Giant’s spiritual power at all back then.
Initially, he thought it was due to his cultivation of the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique.
In light of this, it doesn’t seem entirely to be the case.
"While drinking the Giant’s Blood, I kept having a strange dream. I dreamt of myself transforming into a giant, wandering along the edges of a tragic battlefield..."
"That little girl Tantai Yan said that humans are actually born with spiritual power, which resides in the sea of consciousness. Perhaps the Giant’s spiritual power in the blood didn’t disappear but rged into my sea of consciousness instead?"
"So during this period of ti, my spiritual power thickened further..."
"Dreams are related to the strength of spiritual power!"
Thus, this hypothesis can also deduce why this student of his wanted to give him the "Crystal Visualization Technique", and everything can be explained clearly.
Thinking of this, Su Mu continued to ponder. He had always had a bad habit of envisioning the worst possible scenarios when thinking about problems.
"Not much ti left?"
Was the other party alerting him?
Is he about to face a great calamity himself...
Or could it be that this world is about to face a great catastrophe?
After pondering for a mont, while he couldn’t think of anything for the forr, as for the latter, a catastrophe affecting the world?
He instantly thought of the giant pits on the earth, the Beast Caves!
This thing can indeed annihilate humanity.
"Could it be that a major Beast Tide is about to arrive?"
Considering this, Su Mu’s expression beca exceptionally grave. Humanity’s greatest enemy to date remained the Beast Caves, which, a thousand years ago, had once pushed human civilization to the brink of extinction with the Beast Tide that poured out from them.
If not for a Human Great Sage’s sudden rise, the civilization of martial artists might have been destroyed.
Just because miracles happen once doesn’t an they can happen a second ti.
Deep thinking brings terror.
Su Mu’s heart sank, instantly feeling imnse pressure if that really is the case...
In his mind, the scene from the Beast Tide outbreak in Linjiang Base, where Miaomiao was surrounded by Fierce Beasts, involuntarily surfaced. All of this might play out again, and it may be a hundred, thousand, or even ten thousand tis more severe and dangerous.
This ti, it would not only involve Miaomiao but also engulf everything and everyone dear to Su Mu, even those known and those unknown to him, all mankind!
Everything will be destroyed in the calamity, then annihilated.
The smiles of Miaomiao, Xiaoyue, his parents, Teacher Wang Shuheng, Little Junior Sister, Little One, and others flashed before Su Mu’s eyes, turning into cries of despair in the next second, losing their color and finally shattering into pieces.
"No, I won’t let this happen, absolutely not!"
Su Mu suddenly clenched his extended hand tightly.
In the face of such a catastrophe, if Su Mu wanted to protect his cherished family and friends, as he currently was, he was still too weak...
"My strength is not enough, far from enough."
"After the selection tournant, I need to close the Three Jiao Gate as soon as possible, gather the Three Flowers, and start cultivating the Crystal Visualization Technique after truly mastering spiritual power."
"The Southern War Zone guards the Beast Caves. As for Beast Caves, perhaps I can inquire about them from Uncle Hong later."
Having just achieved the feat of facing a hundred alone, the slight euphoria that just arose in Su Mu’s heart completely dissipated at this mont. A strong desire surfaced in his chest, craving strength more than ever.
Rather than waiting, rather than hoping for a miracle to descend, Su Mu was more realistic. He believed more in his own strength, for his own strength was more reliable.
Or perhaps, Su Mu wanted to beco the next miracle!
He didn’t want to be the next Human Great Sage; he just wanted to protect everything he cherished!
The cheers of the crowd in the stadium occasionally reached the resting room, heated and passionate. In the darkness of the resting room, the resolve in Su Mu’s eyes beca even more steadfast.
Sigh—
Su Mu let out a long breath, stopping his deep thoughts. There was too little information to grasp at present, so continuing to contemplate had no aning.
