Chapter 40 - Heart Demon
Du Chans' eyes were already grey, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
Xie Mengyu looked at Du Chan and was shocked by the sudden change. The aura around Du Chan changed so much that if she didn't see it with her eyes she would not be able to recognize him.
'What's wrong with this guy…' Xie Mengyu sensed a dangerous feeling coming from Du Chan, she calmed down her anger forcefully but Du Chan next move left her no choice but to attack him in rage.
Du Chan threw the gloves he was holding in his left hand, he took hold of another side of her waist with his left hand and removed her veil with his mouth. In a lightning speed!
Her face was oval-shaped, small, and had a sharp nose with light pink lips. Her face was like made of white jade. Overall her face was extremely beautiful
"Sure, you're beautiful," Du Chan said with a smile on his handsome face.
"Ahh" Xie Mengyu now regrets waking this beast! She can't move her body, he hold her very tight.
She lost grip on her sword and the sword fell on the ground, with both of her hands she tried to push him but he stood there like a mountain.
Du Chan slowly started to bend his head to kiss her lips. Xie Mengyu got scared and dodged his kiss. And looked at the old man.
"I... I give up… it's his win so..stop him" she said to the old man who was in dizz.
Du Chan who was trying to kiss her lost all of his in his body and lost the tight grip on Xie Mengyu. Xie Mengyu noticed it and forcefully pushed him back and moved away from him
"That's enough, she said she gave up, it's your win," the old man who was standing beside Du Chan said loudly.
Du Chan didn't listen to the old man's voice; his eye was only on Xie Mengyu. He smiled and started to walk towards Xie Mengyu. Old man and Xie Mengyu both were shocked. He just lost all of his strength, so how can he still walk?
"Listen beauty, I will not leave in the middle of eating so, don't make me force you…" Du Chan said with a smile ignoring the old man.
When she heard him, Xie Mengyu got goosebumps all over her body. The old man beside him sighed.
'Such talent... but a pervert who can't even control his lust… such a waste' the old man thought and knocked out Du Chan with a single knock on the back of the neck.
"You can go now, be careful when you meet him next time… he was normal until he touched you, so don't let him touch you again if did, then you know what will happen," the old man said while picking Du Chan's body from the ground.
Xie Mengyu nodded.
The old man kept the Du Chan at the side of the arena, and Du Chan was sleeping soundlessly.
"Let's continue our test," the old man said.
Xie Mengyu returned to her place.
"Junior sister about that…" the bulky guy was about to say something but Xie Mengyu stopped him.
"Don't mess with him, only after leaving the sect we can do something about it, so don't raise this topic again" she said in a chilly ice tune.
Their batch nodded.
One hour passed.
Du Chan woke up from his sleep and remembered that he was fighting with Xie Mengyu but because of the sudden change he lost control.
"Damn, again?..." Du Chan doesn't know what to do now. If this happens like this he may lose control and become a mass rapist.
While Du Chan was thinking about the solution for it, the 2nd test was finished.
"Now the test is over, let's see the results," the old man said and opened a book.
"The 5 last ranks of both realms are not allowed, go over there," the old man said.
Ten guys moved away from the crowd with sad expressions.
"Now, you guys are the outer sect disciples of Extreme Martial Sect," the old man said.
"What? Then… What about the third test" a kid asked.
"Wait wait, let me finish first," the old man said
"Actually sect only takes disciples after completing the third test, but there is going to a big war in future so we need many disciples as possible, so that's why we are taking you guys in, this the first batch, or else there would be only 30 or 20 guys pass, that's all, consider yourselves lucky," the old man said.
"Oooh" everyone understood now,
"Then…. We still need to participate in the third test?" a guy asked.
"Of course, in the whole exam, the third test is the most important, many people failed in the third test, even if you guys have fewer marks you will be kicked away," the old man said.
Everyone's happy face turned into despair.
The old man smiled.
"Now, let's continue our third test," the old man said.
"That fast? We didn't have any rest"
"Yeah, please conduct it later"
"We know what we do so shut up" the old man shouted.
Everyone became silent, no one made a sound.
"In the third test, you don't need to fight physically, this is a test only based on your martial heart!" the old man said.
Martial heart?
Everyone had the same doubt. What is Martial Heart?
"When one is practicing martial arts, a martial artist must have a will that soars into the heavens.
A martial artist that wanted to reach greater heights would first have to have a firm heart of martial arts. If they were someone who trembled and faltered when facing a powerful match, then they could simply forget about ever reaching a higher boundary. Even if a one's talent surpassed that of another martial artist, then when one attempts to break into a higher boundary, one would encounter a heart demon that was birthed from a martial artist's innermost fear. A heart demon that was shaped like one's greatest fear would have unbelievable power and control. It was likely they would be defeated by this heart demon and fall into obsession.
This was the reason why so many martial artists that deeply cultivated the corrupt path would so easily fall to obsession, it was because they indulge themselves in too many criminal acts and fall into the hands of heart demon!
If the cultivator wants to reach the peak and transcend the human limits and achieve immortality, they need to have a firm heart that can withstand the toucher and the difficulties, or else their foundation will collapse and be consumed by their heart demon.
Everyone has heart demon, maybe that was formed because of your worries or revenge, your heart demon takes the shape of your worries and hunts you. It could be a shame that they could never forget, an irreconcilable blood hatred, something they loved too deeply, something they feared too much, or even something they pursued with all their heart; anything could become one's heart demon!
Let's take an example. A genius who has never tasted a defeat but lost to someone who is not even worth his gaze, then the heart demon will form and will take hunt him down till he surpasses it or perishes in its hands
And this test is to see that you guys can at least withstand some of your heat demon, don't worry, that's all just your imagination. Nothing is real and you will not die,
Ahh, I talked too much. Let's move and start the third test, you will understand it soon when you enter the Heart Demon Array"
When the old man finished his speech the participants were shocked and scared. Heart demon is definitely bad news.
Du Chan was shocked because he felt he had too many heart demons! Can he suppress them? Is there any solution? He has a strong heart that can withstand any kind of pain but can't control his emotions…
'Let's see, what will happen' Du Chan thought and stood up.
"Let's move from here," the old man said and the Egale came and took them away from the arena leaving the ten guys there.
After traveling for an hour they came in front of a big villa!
They landed in front of the villa.
The old man nodded to all and started to enter the villa. everyone followed him and entered the villa, which was very luxurious and empty without anything. Only there was some type of diagrams on the floor with the 1-meter gap between them but a line connected to all of them, those symbols were filled the whole floor!
"Everyone sat on top of the array, one person one slot, Go, do your best, and don't forget that everything you see is an illusion nothing is real! Absolutely nothing!" the old man said and everyone nodded and entered the array and sat on top of the diagram.
Du Chan also sat on a symbol but no one sat beside him. All are far and sat alone.
Du Chan closed his eyes without caring anything.
The old man placed a green orb on a pillar suddenly the array started to turn green. Du Chan felt like his soul entered another place. He opened his eyes but the fog was covered in his view.
He stood up and started to walk aimlessly. Don't know which direction he was walking nor did he knows if there is any danger or traps, he remembered the old man's words. And the where is also good without any presence of beasts.
"This….isnt it the Eastern Mountian?" this mountain is where it lived before and the two people were sitting is none other than he himself and Bai Ning Han!
Both Du Chan type looking person and Bai Ning Han looked at Du Chan and smiled.
"Come have a seat," Bai Ning Han said to Du Chan.
'This is all an illusion' Du Chan thought and looked at Bai Ning Han
"I don't have time to waste on you," he said
"Haha, this is not an illusion so come and sit u dumb idiot" the Du Chan 'fake' said while laughing. Bai Ning Han laughed too.
Du Chan closed his eyes and again thought this is all just an illusion but he was still standing there.
"Idiot, told you, this is not an illusion, we are formed because by your memories and you can only leave from here after defeating us, but that's impossible for an dumb shit like you, some come and have a chat with us" Du Chan 'fake' shouted at Du Chan.
