Chapter 475 Fear in the Night! [Please subscribe! Please vote!]

That night, the sky was dark, the moon had disappeared, and only a few hazy stars shone in the sky. It was pitch black, and it was impossible to see anything under the night sky.

Due to the temperature difference, a sea breeze began to blow along the beach. The cool wind ruffled the girl's hair in the darkness, making her feel a deep chill.

Yuexi felt she must be crazy. She actually accepted Chen Hong's invitation. When Village Chief Xu ordered her to go back to sleep, she chose to go with Chen Hong to see what that mysterious and terrifying thing that their village, and even this area, had been worshipping in the darkness of night really was.

"Brother Chen, are you sure we really want to see this?" In Zilong Village, on the roof of a wooden house, Yuexi sat and quietly glanced at Chen Hong, who lay calmly on the roof slope beside her. Inside the house, her father, Xu Hai, couldn't sleep. He sat nervously at the wooden table, staring blankly at the sealed windows.

They couldn't stop Chen Hong's decision, because on the Sun and Moon Continent, a Soul Saint was already an extremely powerful being. On this continent, only two bloodlines could cultivate to the level of a Title Douluo: the Sun and Moon royal families. Moreover, this only gave them the opportunity to cultivate, not a guarantee of success.

Only those with Sun and Moon Martial Souls can awaken innate talents of level seven or higher. For others, level seven innate soul power is basically the peak, and their cultivation limit in their lifetime is only Soul Douluo. Compared to the wealthy Douluo Continent, the Sun and Moon Continent is much poorer in terms of soul power cultivation.

From a certain perspective, the Yuezhi clan's choice to integrate their bloodline into the general populace of the Sun and Moon Continent was also partly an attempt to improve the average cultivation talent of the continent through martial soul mutation. The Sun Royal Family continued to maintain its power and rule, while the Moon Royal Family integrated with the masses, secretly safeguarding the Sun Royal Family's rule.

Chen Hong's cultivation level as a Soul Saint is basically the ceiling in the eyes of the common people of the Sun and Moon Continent, provided that the Sun Emperor of the Sun and Moon Continent does not intervene.

Furthermore, Chen Hong is not an ordinary Soul Saint. In fact, strictly speaking, Chen Hong is still a half-step Soul Saint. His seventh Soul Ring is being formed, and he will be able to become a level 71 complete Soul Saint in a month at most.

Even if he were a half-Soul Saint, and unable to use his mental power, Chen Hong, at level 70, was not someone an ordinary Title Douluo could easily mess with. After all, Chen Hong wasn't foolish enough to let his spatial soul tool be washed away by the sea. It contained many experimental soul tools specifically adapted to soul power, including even a level nine soul tool cannon that, given enough soul power output, could rival the attack power of a Title Douluo. However, these things were somewhat useless to Chen Hong; he usually used them to help advance research projects he took on from the Technology Chamber of Commerce.

Chen Hong happens to be someone who doesn't lack soul power. In the past, his spirit was too strong, which caused this characteristic of his to be covered by his martial soul's mental power, making him seem less conspicuous.

"What? Since you have the courage to change the village, why don't you have the courage to face the fear deep within the village?" Chen Hong lay on the roof, looking at the dark and quiet Zilong Village in the distance, where there was not a single light. The night was so dark and the environment so quiet that he could hear the sound of the tides crashing against the rocks on the shore.

"During the day, I walked around the nearby forest and found almost no trace of soul beast activity. Obviously, this is territory marked by soul beasts, and other weaker soul beasts dare not approach it," Chen Hong said calmly, resting his head on his arm and looking at the hazy night sky.

Because he cannot use his mental energy, Chen Hong's movements are restricted. He cannot jump and move around like a normal person, and his limbs cannot coordinate. However, compared to when he would fall into the sea while traveling on the water, Chen Hong's movements are not as restricted now as long as he slows down.

A Soul Master's spiritual power is innate, awakening the moment they awaken their Martial Soul and accompanying them throughout their life. Chen Hong's situation is quite rare; he had never encountered this before, so his body's slight discomfort is normal. However, once his body adapts to the absence of spiritual power, it's only natural that his spiritual power will immediately return—he's just having a bit of fun.

"Actually, it's fine if you don't provide blood offerings. Blood offerings are just a medium to make fear a tangible, physical object, appearing before your eyes to remind you that it's time to be afraid." Chen Hong looked at the night sky and said these inexplicable words.

"Huh? A medium. What is that?" Yuexi tried to calm herself down and lay on the roof, but the night wind kept making her feel a bone-chilling cold. Her intuition told her to hurry back inside, or something terrible would happen!

"You can think of it simply as a stick in the hands of parents to discipline disobedient children," Chen Hong gave an example.

Yuexi: "."

Sure enough, he hadn't forgotten that he had hit him with the wooden stick!

Suddenly, in the pitch-black night, a chilling wind, indescribable in its coldness, began to blow gently.

Yuexi instantly felt her whole body stiffen. She seemed to hear an extremely low-frequency sound, ethereal and ancient, filled with vicissitudes, as well as evil and coldness!

"The Moon Martial Soul does have some tricks up its sleeve." Suddenly, Yue Xi, who was enveloped in a cold wind, heard Chen Hong's calm voice in her ears. Then she suddenly woke up from her hallucination, her back already soaked with cold sweat!

"Did you hear something?" Chen Hong looked at the dark forest in the distance and asked Yuexi, who was pale-faced beside him.

The terror in the darkness seemed to have its own background music, capable of inducing hallucinations in those with sensitive minds. Unfortunately, Chen Hong was now immune to any mental influence; without mental power, he couldn't hear those evil whispers, nor could he sense the invisible illusions.

Of course, if the terror in the darkness could restore Chen Hong's mental strength, then he would naturally be able to sense what Yue Xi was sensing.

However, at that time, it was hard to say who would be the ultimate terror.

"Didn't you hear me?" Yuexi's face was pale, and she leaned closer to Chen Hong until she was against his clothes, only then did she feel a strange sense of relief.

"If I could hear, then no one else would have the right to pretend to be a ghost," Chen Hongping said calmly.

He may not be the most powerful mental energy master, but he is definitely the mental energy master with the most terrifying control over mental energy.

There are only two spirit beasts in the world that are stronger than Chen Hong in terms of strength, but in terms of quality and understanding, Chen Hong can crush them.

Putting everything else aside, Chen Hong's divine rune soul rings alone are something that no other soul master can rival.

A million-year soul ring with four soul skills?

Very powerful?

But in Chen Hong's eyes, this was a kind of stubbornness.

Tianmeng: Damn! I was sleeping soundly and got yelled at!
