My Arms Can Turn into Blades

Chapter 398 - 235: Fear

This experience, for the man with the horse face.

Was nothing short of a great humiliation.

It could even be said it was a complete dark history. Ever since entering Jing’s Illusion Dream, he was completely led by the nose.

One unexpected thing after another kept unfolding.

Clearly, he was the Empowerer closest to Jing in the National Sacrificial System, but he was like a fool, only able to follow at Jing’s heels.

Subsequently, he was toyed with... witnessing with his own eyes an outsider who overturned Jing’s entire dreamscape.

An outsider! Yet with miraculous means! He overturned Jing’s dreamscape!

... Walking in the pouring rain, the umbrella was a reversed ship against the sky.

Even he, an Empowerer of the National Sacrificial System, couldn’t do that.

During this period of unconsciousness.

His dreams were filled with that overturned Anomaly Realm, with scenes of the heavens and earth inverted and bizarre beyond belief.

And standing at the center of the stage, was always that Chen Lusi.

The Chen Lusi he couldn’t see through at all.

He just quietly watched him, making the man with the horse face shiver all over.

He couldn’t understand.

He truly couldn’t understand.

And what puzzled him, even more, was that group of the Security Army in the end.

How did they wake up?

Where did their weapons come from?

Why were there modern weapons in Jing’s dreamscape?

And... what kind of weapon was it indeed!?

The man with the horse face initially thought it was a ’cutting-edge’ weapon.

But just after taking the first hit, he realized something was wrong... if he hadn’t used the special nature of the Authority Ability in the National Sacrificial System to forcefully withdraw in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Even so, he was caught off guard and severely injured, the spiritual storm caused by the bullets fired from the Celestial Punishment Weapon was like rain with no gap in coverage, accompanied by the blast’s impact, it directly swept over him.

He went through the agony of a blood exchange.

The man with the horse face was very sure, if the person standing there at the time had a slightly lower Tier, even the Stone in their heart could have been washed and shattered.

And if that all-penetrating spiritual storm had been a bit stronger... the person standing there at that time would have died without a corpse.

It wasn’t just being washed over once by the spirit and withstanding a blast’s impact, almost all flesh and blood could have been ’washed’ off.

So at the moment of departing.

The man with the horse face was truly scared.

He wished he had more legs to immediately leave Jinling.

Because that was the closest he had ever been to death...

And before he lost consciousness, he kept thinking.

Why?

Why could Chen Lusi remain conscious in Jing’s Illusion Dream? Why could he anger Jing? Why could he overturn the Anomaly Realm?

And most importantly! How could he arm the Security Army with modern weapons? And such terrifying modern weapons!

He couldn’t understand.

Truly couldn’t understand.

And as the unknown rose... fear ensued, along with an accompanying, intertwined fury.

Kill him.

Just kill him.

Then all those unknowns would vanish, and the fears would disappear.

This was his most profound thought upon waking... leading to his rageful shout to kill him, even before he had fully caught his breath upon waking.

"Calm down first."

On the other side.

The Dead Sore finally responded, quickly stepped over, and supported the man with the horse face: "The spirit within you is very chaotic, your own spirit mixed with countless unabsorbed wild spirits, like a powder keg, has only calmed down over these few days, so don’t draw any spirit... so what exactly happened in Jing’s Illusion Dream?"

"..."

The man with the horse face sensed his internal state, it was indeed as the Dead Sore described, and he couldn’t help but vomit another mouthful of blood.

Then.

He quickly raised his hand and gently clenched it.

... Wisps of yellow breath drifted out, then instantly burrowed into his body, forcibly suppressing all those unabsorbed wild spirits within.

Seeing this scene.

The Dead Sore slowly exhaled in relief, slowly released him, and then asked again: "So what exactly happened in Jing’s Illusion Dream?"

"Chen Lusi."

The man with the horse face panted slightly, dealing with the spirits within him while uttering a name.

"Chen Lusi?"

The Dead Sore was startled.

The man with the horse face passed out just after leaving the boundaries of Jinling.

He really didn’t know what happened in Jing’s Illusion Dream, so he was very surprised when the man with the horse face suddenly mentioned the name Chen Lusi.

"I encountered him in Jing’s Illusion Dream. Not only did he remain conscious..."

The man with the horse face slowly raised his head and looked at Dead Sore: "He even directly expelled me from Jing’s Illusion Dream."

"..."

The Dead Sore’s eyes widened sharply, pupils quivering wildly.

Although the man with the horse face didn’t detail the specifics, they both knew how precious his Authority was, more clearly than anyone else, the elders of Self.

The Dead Sore immediately said: "How is that possible!? Could his Authority Ability also belong to the National Sacrificial System?"

That’s the only possibility he could think of.

Being part of the National Sacrificial System.

And since Chen Lusi was closer to Jing, they expelled the man with the horse face together.

"Ha."

The man with the horse face knew Dead Sore’s thoughts and gave a self-mocking laugh: "If he were just an Empowerer of the National Sacrificial System, maybe he would have already sunk entirely into Jing’s Illusion Dream."

"What do you mean?" Dead Sore’s expression changed once again.

The man with the horse face recounted everything that had happened in Jing’s Illusion Dream.

He hadn’t intended to hide it from Dead Sore, nor had he considered his pride.

Because Dead Sore was the only elder who, after the incident, claimed that Chen Lusi was not right.

The other elders didn’t believe it, thinking he was shirking responsibility.

The man with the horse face initially didn’t believe it either because it was too far-fetched.

... What’s this about Si Yujie being able to release Techniques by embracing Chen Lusi?
