The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 16 Cannibalism
Beneath the boundless dome, the starlight shone brilliantly. Within the field of vision, it seemed that even more things had appeared, but the distance was too great for them to be clearly seen at first. Zhang Liao was so captivated by the scene before him that he momentarily forgot what he had just been about to say.
And it was at this moment that the white-robed girl, who had disappeared for a long time, slowly walked out from the depths of the starry sky.
It was as if a path was automatically growing beneath her feet. Even though there was endless darkness in front of her and nowhere to put her feet, a small blue stone path would automatically form wherever she walked.
Zhang Liao's eyes widened in disbelief. Chen Er, however, noticed that the bluestone path quickly disappeared after the white-robed girl passed by.
After arriving at the Warrior Tower, Chen Er saw many things that could not be explained by science, but he still found it hard to understand the magical, seemingly spiritual path.
What kind of power created this cobblestone path that can only be described as a miracle? Magic or divine power?
The girl in white robes stood before Chen Er and Zhang Liao, and slowly began to speak:
"The Heavenly Pavilion is now open. Please ascend the Heavenly Path and go to the Heavenly Pavilion."
"But there's clearly no path ahead, just emptiness. How are we supposed to get there? Fly across? Besides, we don't even know what this so-called Heavenly Pavilion is!"
Zhang Liao looked the girl in white robes up and down and asked in confusion.
"The road is right beneath your feet. Close your eyes and walk forward. When you feel that there is no road ahead, you can stop. If you open your eyes halfway through, then you will have to bear all the consequences yourself."
"What will be the consequences?" Chen Er asked in a deep voice.
"At best, they'll go mad; at worst, they'll be lost in this boundless void," the white-robed girl replied earnestly, looking at Chen Er.
"Then what kind of feeling are you talking about? If we close our eyes, how do we know if there's a road ahead?" Zhang Liao asked somewhat angrily.
"Feelings are just feelings. You close your eyes, but you still wake up every morning. Your eyes are no longer focused on the dining table, but you are still hungry when it's time to eat. In the void, your eyes can deceive you; only the instincts from the depths of your soul will lead you to the Heavenly Pavilion."
"I still don't quite understand." Zhang Liao shook his head.
“Your inner voice will remind you. Even if you close your eyes and lose all feeling, you will still know you've arrived at that place. Once you reach that place, you will naturally understand.” The girl in white robes explained further, then changed the subject and said directly:
"If you don't want to, or if you think it's too dangerous, I can take you away from here."
A series of expressions flashed across Zhang Liao's face. Chen Er looked at him, a thought struck him, and then asked a question:
"Is it necessary for all military commanders to go through this process in order to awaken their martial arts skills?"
"Only those chosen by the Heavenly Pavilion are qualified to walk this path. Martial generals who lack the necessary aptitude will never be able to reach this place in their entire lives," the white-robed girl replied.
Chen Er gave the white-robed girl a strange look, and then asked:
"So, that includes Lü Bu too?"
The girl in white robes seemed to sense something and stopped talking, only giving a soft "hmm".
And that was enough. Chen Er patted Zhang Liao on the shoulder, and the latter looked at Chen Er and took a deep breath.
They walked forward side by side, just as they were about to take a step, when the girl in white robes behind them suddenly spoke again:
"I forgot to remind you, the two of you cannot go down the same road. You must choose different directions."
"Why?" Chen Er asked softly.
The girl in white thought for a moment before answering:
"Do you really enjoy killing each other?"
Chen Er and Zhang Liao were taken aback, and both shook their heads.
“Fate will guide you to find your own Heavenly Pavilion, so you don’t need to worry about going in the wrong direction and missing out on something precious. Just follow the guidance of your heart.”
Chen Er turned around and took a deep look at the girl in white.
Doesn't this contradict her previous statement?
He wanted to hear more from the girl in white, but she refused to speak further. Chen Er turned around and gave Zhang Liao a resolute look.
Then, he closed his eyes and walked into the boundless darkness before him.
There was no sound. Everything in the world seemed to have completely disappeared. Chen Er could only hear his own breathing and heartbeat.
The girl in white was right; there was indeed a path beneath his feet. However, recalling how the girl in white had returned earlier, Chen Er felt a growing sense of unease.
A deathly silence reigned, as if we had returned to the very beginning of the universe, where there was no life, no light, and no heat; there was only cold darkness.
But suddenly, in an instant, Chen Er, who had been walking for a long time, heard a faint laugh.
It was as if ghosts were around him, mocking the ignorance of mortals.
In such circumstances, it's possible to have a misperception. But why, of all times, at this particular moment?
When vision is blocked, hearing is amplified. Coupled with the high level of mental tension in the dark, it is understandable that illusions may occur.
Chen Er comforted himself in this way, and then continued to walk forward.
Wearing thick boots, he couldn't immediately tell whether his feet were on stone or metal. Although he saw the white-robed girl walking on a cobblestone path, he wasn't sure if it was actually made of cobblestone. At that moment, he couldn't open his eyes to look.
He continued walking in the darkness, not knowing when it would end.
He estimated his speed and calculated the time it took, deducing that he must have walked at least two or three kilometers.
However, this was not the end. Although Chen Er did not open his eyes, he could feel that the path beneath his feet was still extending.
Is this space really so vast? Chen Er suddenly felt that he might have made a mistake in his judgment.
Perhaps I misremembered the time? After all, in this kind of environment, it's easy for people to feel like each day is an eternity.
Perhaps he had been going in circles. After all, without eyes open and lacking reference points, people instinctively tend to go in circles. Even Chen Er, who had received special training, was no exception.
A sudden urge arose within him. He wanted to open his eyes and see everything around him.
