The Yuan Principle started making the spirit sea tumble. The still water became tumultuous. The old man who had entered Liu Feng's spirit sea started clutching his ears, as if this noise was bursting his head.
This was the same reaction that Liu Feng also had. But Liu Man seemingly could endure it.
"Suppress!" Liu Feng shouted, and the Yuan Principle doubled.
Going against someone in the Xiantian realm, he could not afford to show off his cards. Although he had never fought in his spirit sea, he knew that the Yuan Principle could exist there. And he had no intention of experimenting by using the Dao of Ice here. If something happened to his spirit sea that would damage his consciousness, then he would probably enter a vegetative state.
"Who are you? To think that you actually have a spirit attack. But do not think that you are almighty." the old man said and his eyes started turning red.
That glare shook Liu Feng's concentration and made him shiver.
In that momentary lapse of concentration, the Yuan Principle collapsed, and the old man shot forward to reach for Liu Feng's neck.
"Come. I want to see what mysteries you hold within your head." the old man grinned. Liu Feng could not do anything now. He was quickly taken by the old man, and was looking at him with fear.
Still struggling, Liu Feng tried to use the Yuan Principle again, but it was too late. In such close distance, he could not deal with the old man.
"You should not resist anymore. Just prepare for your death." the old man said, and his forehead touched Liu Feng's forehead in this spirt sea.
"Aaaargh!"
Liu Feng felt a sharp burn. It was like his very existence was going to be extinguished.
Just at that moment, something happened. A bright light appeared in the maelstrom that happened to be in one corner of the spirit sea, calmly doing its work.
This was the spiritual root. A golden light shot towards the old man, who was unsuspecting of what just happened. The light hit both Liu Feng and the old man.
Both of them screamed with pain, and Liu Feng fainted immediately. His spiritual body was rarely used to any kind of pain.
The old man, however, was no longer locked onto Liu Feng. He then looked around, as if someone else was there. Seeing that Liu Feng was in an unconscious state, he was sure that someone else was in this place.
"Who dares sneak attack this old master?" he roared.
"Who dares sneak attack you? It looks like the world is full of presumptuous idiots who think that they are entitled to the world." a cold voice pierced the void and shook the old man's soul itself.
Just listening to this person speak, the old man could feel that he was much, much weaker in comparison. This person who just spoke was a master.
"For the offense of daring to enter this sacred place, and daring to touch my son, you shall face death!" the voice stated. The moment that this was said, the maelstrom stopped moving.
The whirlpool of Qi just halted, and the golden spiritual root stood in the middle, visible in all its glory.
The old man locked his eyes on the spiritual root, and a certain fear emerged. He started fleeing the spirit sea, and tried to run to the entrance.
"You came all the way here. Stay back and nourish the child that you dared to attack." the voice spoke once more, and the spiritual root started glowing.
The old man looked back to see what was happening but it was too late.
A golden light struck his forehead and just pierced through. The old man's eyes were wide open, just filled with shock. The last memories that he had, were those of Liu Feng himself.
And those memories made him confused. When he tried to read Liu Feng's memories, he tried to get the most important ones. He thought of Liu Feng as Liu Tian, the alchemy genius.
And any alchemy genius' most important secret would be his inheritance, or his secret master in this case, or something like a treasure that he had acquired. But Liu Feng's was none of these. For him, the most protected memory was something that he had never seen.
It was Liu Feng, staring at a blue screen in front of him, with a few stats written on them. This was the system homepage.
No one knew what the system was, and so, the old man was just confused.
In his last moments, he felt regret. He still had enough energy in his soul to last a minute longer, but just barely look on. He could not move. He was just on the threshold of passing away.
He saw the unconscious Liu Feng on the surface of the spirit sea, and the golden spiritual root slowly approaching him. The spiritual root suddenly changed shape, and it became a beautiful golden lady, an astonishing beauty.
The lady was as graceful as she was pristine. Just looking at her, the old man felt like she was the angel who had come to take him away.
"My dear Feng'er." the beautiful lady stroked Liu Feng's cheekbones. A single tear drop fell from her eyes onto Liu Feng. Just looking at this, the old man felt a tinge of sadness for this woman that he did not even know!
The moment that the tear drop fell on Liu Feng's face, it shone. Liu Feng shivered a little bit, but still did not open his eyes.
"What are you still doing here? Someone like you does not deserve a peaceful ending!" the golden lady glared at the old man and said with a harsh voice.
At that exact moment, the old man no longer felt like she was an angel who had come to take him away. She was the devil who had come to collect his soul and drag him to the depths of the earth.
Another glint of light struck the old man.
"Yes. I remember what he was protecting at the last moment. It was her, and that mad man. To think that I was against the son of that mad man." for a split second, everything made sense to this old man, and then, his body just split apart into dust.
He was no more.
