"Cough, cough, cough. By the way, why does your hair smell so enticing?"
Li Rui couldn't help but ask, suddenly thinking of a way to change the subject.
Ruo Xin raised her eyes to look at him, then lowered her head shyly, speaking in a tone filled with melancholy.
So what you mean is that aside from this life, all other lives are inferior, including mine?? I can only shake my head and sigh at such romantic notions; truly, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and you are too infatuated with him!
What is life? It lies in the essence and in experiencing it firsthand. The meaning of life cannot simply be affirmed or denied by your few words. At least, I absolutely do not share that view.
Alright, now that we are experiencing it firsthand, the key is to immerse oneself in that environment. We must consider what constitutes that environment: for example, all living beings around us, stones, trees—these are all part of the environment. How can we make this world come alive and no longer be a solitary entity? It is through allowing our surroundings to come alive that our world will naturally thrive. For instance, splitting a stone in half may seem trivial to an outsider who lacks understanding; however, for the person who breaks the stone, it holds extraordinary significance. The comments and psychology of onlookers, along with the changing dynamics of the surroundings during a confrontation—has this point been conveyed? Not at all. And as for your constant dismissal of these so-called insignificant ants, what else is worth mentioning? They may be brief and imperfect compared to your idealized version of life, but undoubtedly they are all fresh and vibrant lives.
Let’s consider the thoughts of a spirit of the realm. His world revolves solely around magical treasures; indeed there are many treasures, but they remain just that—treasures. The problem is that every move he makes lacks any visible scene or emotional depth. Even if he causes the ground to tremble with his power, my heart remains untouched because his world feels distant and is often viewed with indifference. It’s like a speaker on stage passionately delivering a speech while demonstrating treasures; no matter how brilliant his words are, we cannot feel that essence.
You merely exist as you are; you do not empathize with your own world or your own people. You regard them as mere ants and neglect them. This is why a being of such stature fails to gain the favor of the spirit of the realm and instead chooses me. However, someone who excels in writing sees their entire world as part of their narrative; if you do not take each element seriously or appreciate every aspect of life’s richness, then even if your story is captivating, I still feel a sense of dullness within me. No matter how brilliantly you manage it, it cannot stir even a ripple.
Thus, I, Li Rui, am here to revolutionize!
Revolution! This statement struck like thunder, leaving those opposite speechless.
Li Rui stood there in the void, facing his opponent with pride and feeling no threat to his mental state.
Li Rui had often heard from many masters and elders that those who are pitiful must have their reasons for being so; living their lives in arrogance leads to their rejection by the spirits of their realm. Moreover, those who do not even realize their true power yet dare to confront others with pride will ultimately meet death.
When observing himself being questioned by others, Li Rui already knew he would inevitably lose!
Who among them did not know the many formidable skills Li Rui possessed?
Previously at Dragon Valley Mountain, Li Rui's identity and abilities were already remarkable, so he viewed these challenges as a necessary foundation. Despite the continuous influx of Beasts and Dragon Gate Candidates, Li Rui, as a chosen individual, was destined for an extraordinary life! His training along the way had also strengthened his vision, evolving from Orange-Red and Yellow to the current Magatama Red, which granted him the ability to ignite black flames in his opponents' bodies.
However, just at that moment, he successfully captured a glimpse of a previous difficult battle. He decided to take action without hesitation and directly replicated his earlier enemy to engage in combat.
Li Rui continuously used his finger techniques: Wind Extreme, No Extremes, Extinguish Wind Extreme! Wind Extreme Finger! He relentlessly struck at the oncoming Beasts. Although his techniques were powerful, there were simply too many opponents rushing towards him recklessly. For a moment, Li Rui found it challenging to handle the situation. He felt a weight in his heart; these truly were the rulers of the world. Even though he had bound them with Spatial Power and could not exert his full strength, they still possessed an eerie ability to replicate the difficulties he faced at Dragon Valley Mountain. With their enhanced strength, these phantasmal Beasts became increasingly troublesome.
Having previously expended a significant amount of energy using the power of dimensions, Li Rui found himself entangled in combat.
He drew out the staff from behind him and executed the Staff Technique: One Section Staff Technique Defines Four Flat, Second Step into the Void, Golden Rooster Stands, Three Flowers Turning the Fan, Closing the Door Tight, Four Steps of the Square, Goose Flying South, Five Demons' Nirvana Seal, Six Transformations of the Universe, Stand in the Void, Seven Steps to Repel Ten Thousand Enemies, Eight Steps of Reincarnation Sweeping Thousands. One after another, reckless Beasts charged at Li Rui, and he gradually began to struggle.
Although he had never seen this group of Beasts before, Li Rui was able to discern their weaknesses. These Beasts appeared to have extremely sharp claws and their movements seemed graceful and agile.
However, Li Rui knew that no creature could be designed so perfectly by its creator; a being that combined agility with power simply could not exist. Therefore, these Beasts' weakness was their lack of flexibility!
Sure enough, as several ferocious-looking Beasts approached him with their claws ready to strike, Li Rui swiftly turned and executed a series of Staff Techniques that left them reeling.
Unfortunately, there were simply too many Beasts this time. Finally, in a moment of carelessness, Li Rui was struck by a massive claw that tore open a large wound on him. Blood gushed forth from the wound, causing his consciousness to blur slightly.
