Sean decided to advance to King level.
Before that, he had to complete his heart chakra spiritual practice. Thinking back then, when he and Yueguang first met, they were still far away from the huge cost of raising the heart chakra. Nowadays, whether it is money or the C-class inheritance required for the ceremony, it is no longer a problem. Times change.
In fact, Yueguang and Ivan's souls have also reached the conditions for performing the ritual. However, due to the dangers involved in the heart chakra ritual, to be on the safe side, they decided to perform the ritual after the soul has further grown.
At this moment, Sean came to the spiritual retreat located on the sixth floor of the Explorer Center. In front of him, from left to right are the Centennial Tavern, Sundial Stone Palace and Rain Lantern Camp.
Sean's soul concentration is now somewhere between mead and gin. Among the Queen class, it is already quite prominent. It is also the time to enter the Rain Lantern Camp and usher in the heart chakra spiritual practice.
He looked at the green road and walked in without any distracting thoughts.
After walking through a quiet, green path, Sean found himself walking into a natural landscape. He was sure that he was still in the Explorer Building at this moment, but the sight in front of him confused him - there was a sky above him, it was sunset, and the light was dim. The drizzle made the ground muddy, and many lanterns were hung in the camp ahead. One after another, the lanterns exude a bit of warmth in the cold color. Outside the camp, there is an endless jungle...
The campground was exceptionally quiet and a little deserted.
Sean saw a dark-skinned man sitting cross-legged under a piece of animal skin felt. He wore clothes made of pounded bark, his nose was pierced by animal bones, and he had totems of unknown meaning on his body. They look like savages from overseas.
He took a puff of the animal bone cigarette holder at hand and stared at Sean with a pair of deep eyeliner eyes, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.
That must be the host of the heart chakra ceremony, Sean thought to himself. Compared to the pair of brothers in the Centenary Tavern, he felt that the host of the Heart Chakra was a little strange.
Sean sat down on the animal hide mat in front of him. From behind him, he could see the dense forest, which revealed ruins of unknown age, with moss and vines covering them densely, covering up the original pattern.
"You might die here." The smoker said with a thick accent amidst the sound of raindrops. "It's best to leave."
Sean knew that the mortality rate for heart chakra rituals was 1 in 10. That's right, one out of every ten Queens died in this kind of experience.
However, he has a strong enough soul to back him up, and he has nothing to fear.
As if he had read through Sean's thoughts, the smoker smiled with yellow and black teeth. He stared at the mask of waves in the sea of twilight, and the stars on the waves, as if he was talking to the star: "Heart The test of the wheel has nothing to do with how strong your soul is.
"Even the King class has died in it."
Is he trying to shake my mind? Sean frowned: "I have made up my mind and will not leave."
The smoker bit his cigarette holder, looked at Sean with a half-smile, and said, "Okay. Give me the stuff."
Sean took out the C-class inheritance, the soulless blood cup, which he had prepared before, and placed it in front of him.
He tapped the strange-shaped object with his cigarette rod, held it up with his right hand, and looked at it while turning it. He seemed to like it quite a lot.
He put down the inheritance and his eyes suddenly changed. His eyes widened and he roared at Sean: "Who are you?! How dare you come here!"
The smoking man jumped up as if seeing an enemy and drew his sword. Sean stepped back in a hurry, trying to raise his hands to open the ectoplasmic protective layer, but found that he could not lift his hands.
Looking down, he saw that he was stamping on the ground with four gray paws.
what happened? ! Sean panicked and felt a threatening roar coming from his throat.
He felt like he had become shorter, smaller, no longer Sean, but some kind of animal...
The smoker roared in an incomprehensible language and slashed hard with his waist knife. Sean shuddered and dodged, the waist knife split the animal skin pad in two, and even cut into the ground.
Sean discovered that the other party really wanted to kill him.
what happened? ! Sean's mind was spinning. He glanced at the cup of soulless blood placed at the host's feet, and a terrible suspicion emerged in his mind: There was something fishy in the heart chakra ceremony. This guy who seemed to be the host wanted to steal the ritual materials he took out, so he used the magic unique to this space to curse himself...
After all, the mortality rate of the heart chakra ritual is very high. Afterwards, as long as he says that he died during the ritual, no one will trace it...
Thinking of this, Sean felt cold in his heart. He lost his playing cards and was unable to use the power of Shenyu or the Lady at this time. The savage raised his sword again. There was no other way. Sean had no choice but to follow the body's desire and ran wildly into the dense forest. During the run, he didn't even dare to look back...
After running for who knows how long, Sean's boiling mind finally calmed down a little. He slowed down and looked back. There was no sign of the savage, and he knew he had escaped.
In this way, I breathed a long sigh of relief.
So thirsty. After panting for a long time, Sean felt as if his body and throat were burning. He panted and walked to the lake. In the reflection of the lake he saw the face of a dark gray wolf.
So, I turned into a wolf?
To my surprise, although I turned into a beast, I didn't feel too surprised. It was as if this jungle had given him his current form, as if his current appearance was a matter of course.
Sean, or the dark gray wolf, lowered his head and kept scooping the cool water into his mouth with his tongue.
There were still many inexplicable pictures in the gray wolf's mind, such as human city streets, newspaper printing factories, and a house tour with a human woman... It didn't know the meaning of these pictures. It only felt very thirsty and hungry. Very powerful.
After drinking enough water, the gray wolf raised his head. Only then did it feel cold all over - it had not eaten for two days and nights, and now it was becoming a little weak.
Not only that, it was still shaking uncontrollably. The memories of the recent past are still so vivid.
They were originally a wolf pack, with a total of more than twenty strong wolves. When they finished hunting and were resting in the forest valley, a huge and terrifying thing suddenly appeared.
It's a female bear with a blind left eye.
The wolves remembered the bear and stole two of its babies to satisfy their hunger.
This huge bear is here for revenge. It was not afraid of the twenty or so wolves at all and rushed over like crazy. The gray wolf saw that many of its companions were dead. The mother bear vented her rage madly and bit the wolf's head into pieces. The gray wolf's brother was torn in half, and sticky blood spattered on the gray wolf's face. Originally still fighting with the bear, fear suddenly took over. Like many of his companions, the gray wolf turned and fled into the forest...
But it knew that the crazy female bear also chased into the forest.
There was cold water in his stomach, and the gray wolf was still trembling at the horrific scenes that came to his mind. Suddenly, its whole body froze.
A huge face appeared in the woods.
On that bear's face, the left eye was blind. It exhaled hot breath, and its lips and nose were covered with bright red blood.
