As the spiritual shock struck, Vishdair suddenly found that the scene before her changed.
When she ca to her senses again, she was already back in the training room, sitting on the bench, heart pounding, with a slight sweat on her forehead.
That usually indifferent exquisite face now appeared exceptionally serious and earnest, with so sweat on it, looking sowhat startled.
Just now, she seed to have returned to the blood-and-fire-filled battlefield of Kazdail, the sll of death lingering at the tip of her nose, so familiar.
Was that just now... a world of illusions created by sothing akin to the Heart Demon?
The Heart Demon, a clan of the Sakaz, very few in number, are quite mysterious even within the Ten Kings Court.
She hadn’t faced a Heart Demon head-on, but had to wonder, could illusions truly be made this real?
Whether it was the five senses, the scene, or the mobilization of internal power...
She instinctively clenched her right hand, suddenly discovering that she was holding sothing.
It was the skill crystal... and Lin Guang’s left hand.
Vishdair suddenly rembered what had just happened and imdiately looked at Lin Guang.
They were sitting side by side, but his pupils were sowhat dilated, expressionless, yet his body was trembling slightly.
A chill ran through Vishdair’s heart, as she was not unfamiliar with this expression.
In fact, on the battlefield, she had seen a rcenary squad attacked by a Heart Demon, those trapped in illusions often showing extre fear, and even if they survived, their ntal state would be significantly affected, not to ntion Lin Guang who grew up in a peaceful environnt.
For so reason, Vishdair, who always prided herself on being cold and ruthless, suddenly felt a very unfamiliar emotion, perhaps if she weren’t a Sakaz from Kazdail, she could easily understand this emotion called "worry."
She didn’t delve into this emotion, imdiately stood up, half-crouched in front of Lin Guang, holding his left hand with one hand, waving the other before his sowhat unfocused eyes: "Hey!"
"What’s wrong with you, are you okay? You said you were just learning a skill?!"
Vishdair leaned closer to Lin Guang’s face, carefully observing his pupils, while confirming his breathing hadn’t stopped.
Seemingly her call had an effect, Lin Guang’s gaze slowly solidified, starting to focus on her face: "...Vishdair?"
"Sigh..."
The girl relaxed, but quickly noticed sothing unusual.
Lin Guang’s trembling hadn’t stopped, and in fact was becoming more pronounced.
Vishdair thought he was only just now starting to feel afraid, but what ca wasn’t a sob, rather a gradually erging... excited smile on his face.
He kept taking deep breaths but couldn’t suppress the smile on his face, becoming increasingly manic, completely out of line with his usual temperant and deanor.
Vishdair felt a bit creeped out, reaching out to pat his face: "...Have you gone mad?"
"Huff...huff..."
After taking several deep breaths with closed eyes, Lin Guang barely managed to slow down his pounding heart, feeling as if it might escape from his chest the next mont.
"No, I’m just too excited."
The pain from being hit by the Evil Fluctuation and the skill clash had receded like a tide, but that feeling was clearly imprinted in mory, making Lin Guang’s head ache vaguely, and making it difficult for him to control his emotions.
Gradually, the smile on his face finally subsided, but the excitent in his heart naturally hadn’t faded.
"It’s truly sothing to long for."
"What?"
He didn’t continue to explain and finally released Vishdair’s hand, revealing the crystal that was glistening from their combined hand sweat.
"Simply unbelievable."
"Speak human language! You still haven’t told what just happened!"
"This is not an ordinary skill crystal."
Lin Guang pinched the still vibrant crystal with his thumb and forefinger, explaining, "An ordinary skill crystal would rely forcibly provide instructions on how to use the skill, just telling you to do it this way."
"But President Rote, for so reason, although there was a simpler thod to make the Spirit Beasts learn, he insisted on crafting this skill crystal in this way."
"According to my guess, this crystal directly loaded the mory of creating the Explosion Fist for the user to experience."
"The longer you endure, the higher the success rate of learning the skill."
Vishdair listened, as though an angry cross mark appeared on her forehead: "This guy must be bored with too much free ti, huh? So keen on tornting people!"
"No, the skill itself might not even be important anymore."
Lin Guang got more excited as he spoke, again wearing that slightly manic smile: "The pain of being hit, the mobilization of ether and spiritual power during combat, the experiential feedback during a battle, and the reflexes in monts of crisis — "
"I even suspect that this scenario can train the strength of spiritual power!"
"These are the true treasures."
By now, he also realized why Fu Fuyou and that locksmith wore subtle grins as they handed him the crystal, why this skill crystal, crafted by President Rote, was restricted to Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts below level thirty, and why the lower the level, the less energy it consud.
The scenario and sensory stimulus intensity must adapt to the spirit strength of spirit beasts and Spirit Masters; strong individuals will need to expend more external power to receive the sa stimulation than weaker ones.
This ans that Lin Guang and Vishdair, who haven’t even reached level ten, can use it far more tis than Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts above level twenty!
And Fu Fuyou had once promised him personally that the use of this crystal was absolutely safe — this ant no matter how dangerous the scenario, it wouldn’t cause substantial harm.
Being kicked out just now was likely due to triggering the crystal’s protective chanism.
If this is the case, what else is there to fear?
As long as he and Vishdair can endure the spiritual pressure of the Tier Five Magical Beast, Demon-Eating Tiger Shark, releasing evil attribute ether, as well as the pain from being hit by skills, it’s all good.
Although this ti they were kicked out right as the battle just began, Lin Guang felt that next ti, he absolutely could do better, excavating even more from this treasure trove.
Seeing Lin Guang full of excitent, Vishdair’s tense face relaxed, suddenly recalling a peculiar point, "Wait a minute, this president...was he fighting barehanded?"
"Aren’t your world’s people all Spirit Masters?"
