The stormy sea was swept by fierce winds and torrential rain.
The fishing boat rocked violently as an intense battle unfolded.
Yet, deeper below the surface, the farther down one went, the calr it beca.
Even the most turbulent waves could not reach this dark and tranquil world.
The Abyssal Rift.
A naked figure stood upon the swirling vortex, maintaining an immovable stance.
Chaotic undercurrents continuously battered his body, as if sculpting the rugged lines of muscles resembling granite.
Milky bubbles bubbled up, constantly rolling upward, gently caressing the surface of his skin, perating his pores.
It was as if imrsed in the healing waters of a hot spring, basking in the generous gifts of nature.
Only, however.
In the shadowy depths of the deep sea, many strange shadows drifted by, with countless pairs of eyes flickering with luminescent light.
Such an exceptionally gifted environnt for cultivation seed to also attract legendary demons and monsters, gathering here.
Fang Cheng ditated with eyes closed, his facial expression tranquil as an ancient well.
To all surrounding changes and visions, he appeared utterly unaware, without sensation.
At this mont, his five senses were completely cut off, entering an extrely special spiritual state.
His self-awareness kept descending, arriving at the darkest, deepest region of the subconscious sea.
In a trance, the waves and tides also arrived in waves, bringing an imnsely comfortable sensation.
Gradually, a hue of brilliant blue erged before his eyes.
And then.
The entire world was occupied by this atmosphere of supre tranquility, embraced by the serene blue as pure as the ocean.
The tides ebbed and flowed gently, creating a sparkling, star-like glistening on the water.
Fang Cheng attempted to stretch his limbs, swimming around freely and joyfully like a fish.
Gradually...
A burgeoning desire erged, to sleep here forever, to enjoy eternal peace.
This primal instinct rapidly grew, beginning to take control of his self-awareness, imrsing Fang Cheng deeper in the tranquil atmosphere.
Just at this mont, an oddly familiar feeling suddenly assaulted him.
Fang Cheng heard a series of strange, sonorous syllables.
As if a mother, bound by blood, was calling out to her offspring from the unknown.
Thus, he raised his head.
Gazing into the boundlessness of the engulfing deep blue.
Once again, he saw that imnsely distant and enormous silhouette.
But this ti it was different.
When Fang Cheng’s gaze pierced through the vast expanse of blue, landing upon the target.
Instantly, another string of equally bizarre yet enchanting syllables drifted into his ears.
Ethereal and profound, mysteriously graceful.
As if they could awaken the softest mories deep within the human heart.
Interspersed among them were countless low chants, the prayers of worshipping the divine.
This chorus, converging like waves, rendered the syllables indecipherable, yet as magnificent as a sacred hymn, shaking the soul.
It seed...
That if one joined in the chant and worship, one could imdiately gain infinite strength and wondrous abilities.
But just then, the original strange and weighty syllable reappeared in his mind.
This ti, Fang Cheng finally heard it a bit more clearly.
It was an exceedingly desolate and profound mooing.
As if traveling from the distant primordial tis, through endless space-ti, before finally arriving here.
The prolonged resonance was like thunder rolling, causing the blue ocean to suddenly tremble.
Even the choral song that seed like a hallowed chant was instantly disrupted, turning chaotic and disordered.
anwhile, the point of light in Fang Cheng’s mind that resembled a fla also shook violently.
As if a spark of Spiritual Fire burst forth, he instantly realized what the original bizarre vowel truly was.
That was actually—
It was the "Original Vowel" that he had already mastered and evolved into an Epic Talent!
The sa prival sound from the deepest part of the subconscious, canceling and contending with the strange syllables floating around.
Ripples spread outwards, raising massive waves, breaking the eternal tranquility.
In the dimness, that enormous shadow seed to stir.
Accompanied by countless songs of praise rising and falling in the sea, it appeared to be awakening from its eternal slumber.
Those syllables did not greatly affect Fang Cheng’s perception; he could even faintly understand their aning.
But the inexplicable strength from the depths of the sea sent shivers down his spine.
It was as if it concealed the purest and oldest evil curse of this planet.
It was an aura that naturally exuded from a superior being—majestic and solemn, powerful and pure, as if perched at the very pinnacle of all creatures, naturally looking down on all life.
Fang Cheng did not choose to use the "Heart of Steel" Skill Effect to imdiately exit the ditation State.
Instead, he continued to resist in the world of the subconscious, persisting in retaining his self-awareness.
For it was at this mont of peril from the unnad entity, and as the Original Vowel took effect.
Fang Cheng vaguely found the long-anticipated sensation of entering ditation!
Civilizations transford, and scenes flickered by as if glimpses of light, the rise and fall of dynasties.
Fang Cheng felt as if he had returned to the Primordial era displayed by the Original Vowel.
Once again witnessing the forebears’ toil, farming with simple tools and fire, breaking through darkness and ignorance to forge the path of civilization.
He listened to the exhilarating human anthem that dared to challenge nature, rather than the words of prayer and praise offered to a deity.
Thoughts arose only to fall into silence...
The panel flickered with light, as ssages flashed rapidly before his eyes.
[You are enduring a subconscious impact, comprehending the mysteries of the soul, ditation Experience 1]
[You are enduring a subconscious impact, comprehending the mysteries of the soul, ditation Experience 1]
..........
If one were to observe himself from the perspective of introspection at this mont.
Fang Cheng’s cerebral cortex was extrely active, constantly emitting faintly trembling waves.
The pineal gland between his brows secreted a certain abnormal hormone, becoming more sensitive to the detection of external light.
Moreover, the pea-sized pineal gland itself faintly radiated light, like a tiny bright spot.
anwhile, in the deepest and darkest part of the subconscious.
That fla-shaped speck of light trembled violently, akin to a flickering candle in the wind, burning to its end, growing dimr.
Just as it was about to extinguish and plunge into darkness.
Suddenly, it stabilized.
Then, with a bang, as if exploding.
The nearly extinguished tiny fla abruptly surged upward, reigniting fiercely, brightly illuminating its surroundings.
If the earlier fla was just an illusion from the depths of the subconscious, necessitating ditation to appear.
Now, it was like a truly existing, distinct fla of light.
Even causing the space between Fang Cheng’s brows to beco burning hot, his face turning bright red.
The panel shimred with dazzling light, reflecting the flickering fla.
[Congratulations, through unimaginable effort and persistence, your Skill has reached Expert Level]
[ditation lv1 (0/250)]
[You have received an Enhancent reward, Skill Effect "Spiritual Fire"]
And during the process of Fang Cheng’s deep ditation, resisting the subconscious impact.
A massive shadow was slowly rising from the Abyss, gradually nearing this place.
Gurgle, gurgle...
Milky-white bubbles churned faster, like boiling water.
As the shadow ascended, its true form was gradually revealed, but it was the assorted debris spewed from underwater volcanoes.
There were various antique items from sunken ships, covered in water plants and green rust.
There were corpses of deep-sea fish, bizarre and grotesque, hardly palatable.
And then there were so skeletal remains of unknown creatures with very strange shapes.
Seemingly relics of so prehistoric behemoths that went extinct, left behind due to the unique geological structures.
Perhaps, as they moved from the depths of a few kiloters in the Abyss to the shallow sea, oxygen once again beca abundant.
These white skeletons started reacting, emitting an even more dazzling light; a fantastic azure glow that seed like a dream.
