I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 409. Psychological Suggestion
Chapter 409: 409. Psychological Suggestion
"In today’s battle, Shen Siang’s Azure Dragon Heart Image was pathetically weak, even worse than that toad from Chuyun, whose ’Plasma Howitzer’ could at least pose a threat to Lu Li.
Compared with Wanqing’s Vermilion Bird, it was embarrassingly inferior, far from deserving the title of the foremost among the ’Four Spirits.’
Anyone with eyes could see that. Li Yuanzhong found it particularly suspicious, and speculated that Shen Xing must have used Evil Magic to seize the Azure Dragon’s status, which is why it was only a facade since it wasn’t innate.
Similar acts had been pulled off in history, and it could also explain why the Azure Dragon colluded with Chuyun people to produce poison.
The more the old Taoist thought about it, the more convinced he became. With a stern face, he asked:
’Shen Xing, where is the real Azure Dragon? Speak the truth, and perhaps you may save your life.’
Hearing this, Shen Siang also looked towards his father.
Shen Xing, glancing frequently at Lu Li, fearing the approach of the Evil Demon, simply blurted out:
’Siang is indeed not the Azure Dragon, but I did not harm the Four Spirits; instead, I used the method of ’fake to true.’
’When Siang was still a fetus, I told him every day, "You are the Azure Dragon";
After he was born, his mother, the servants, maids, playmates, all friends and relatives, also insisted he was the Azure Dragon.
Decades of constant indoctrination actually birthed a Dragon Son! The human spirit... truly wondrous indeed.’
As he spoke of this, Shen Xing seemed rather smug.
Shen Siang, however, was devastated, his mouth agape, unable to utter a word.
Shen Xing, unconcerned with his son’s feelings, hurriedly urged Li Yuanzhong:
’True Master, can you let my son and me leave now? What I’ve told you is nothing but the truth, you should be able to sense that.’
Cultivators possess a powerful ’Spiritual Sense,’ which would immediately detect any lies told by others.
Li Yuanzhong sensed that the other party was telling the truth, but there was another question—
For everyone to be consistent in their story, without any mistakes in demeanor, over ten or twenty years while keeping it confidential...
Why was Shen Xing so confident it would succeed?
Li Yuanzhong asked on the spot, ’This psychological suggestion technique...where did you learn it?’
Upon hearing this, Shen Xing’s pupils shrank, and he replied with feigned calm:
’I was inspired by the Westerners’ ’mock execution.’ For example, blindfolding a person, tying them up, dripping water on their wrists, and lying that their wrists have been cut, after a while, the person actually dies.’
The principle was not much different, but Li Yuanzhong sensed a flicker in the man’s brain waves... he was lying!
And how could an ordinary man achieve such a feat, persisting for decades based purely on an inspiration?
Shen Xing realized he had given himself away, but just then, a thunderous and earth-shattering noise suddenly filled the world—Dragon Girl had punched an entrance to the Spirit Realm.
The violent airflow swept across the land, truly a godsend opportunity.
Shen Xing pumped his heart fiercely, pouring nearly half of his True Qi into his son’s body, forcibly activating all his cells to regain movement. freēnovelkiss.com
But that alone was not enough! To survive, one must be willing to embrace death!
Shen Xing lifted his son with the long spear and enveloped both in nearly half of his Immortal Will, and with a loud shout, he hurled them out with all his might.
The spear, carrying Shen Siang, burst through a ring of white sonic waves, exploding at three times the speed of sound, like a bomb, towards...the entrance to the Spirit Realm!
Li Yuanzhong never expected the other to run in that direction and thought to try to intercept.
But Shen Xing shouted, ’Siang grew up under the True Master’s watch! Leave a way out for him!’
His previous judgment was not wrong; Li Yuanzhong truly had a soft heart, indecisive.
Seeing the deep affection of an old acquaintance, he sighed and remained still.
Shen Xing relaxed, and then gave his final instructions to his son through the spear:
[Find ’Prince Qing’ in the Spirit Realm, let him take you to the Chuyun Emperor, the Emperor will give you refuge]
[Siang, in your father’s eyes, you are a dragon, and you are a Divine Dragon destined to soar through the Nine Heavens! You were just short of some fortune, but from now on, you must walk your own path]
"Don’t ever confront anyone with the surname Lu again! This is the savior born from Shen Zhou... even from our entire planet! They are not someone we can face..."
Father seemed to have much more to say, but Shen Siang had already leapt into the entrance of the Spirit Realm and could no longer hear anything.
In the last instant, he caught a glimpse with the corner of his eye of three demonic shadows enveloping his father’s figure, and pain instantly twisted his heart.
~~~~~~~~~
Lu Li’s Heart Image was half manifested, surrounding Shen Xing with an indifferent voice,
"Colluding with the Chuyun, setting up a poison factory, you’re dead."
Before he had finished speaking, two dragon heads thunderously bit down.
"A True Monarch stooping to place himself on the same level as ants, playing at national righteousness, isn’t it laughable?"
Shen Xing shouted while dodging the dragon’s mouth in two quick teleportations.
But the third dragon head anticipated his movements and aimed at where he was about to land, releasing a dazzling bluish Light Ball from its mouth.
This was the Frog Heart Image’s Divine Skill—the Plasma Howitzer!?
Shen Xing’s face was filled with shock: "Your Heart Image also has the ability to Devour!"
Lu Li had previously devoured the Frog Heart Image and thus acquired its Divine Skill!
"That Three-headed Demon Dragon was already freakish enough, how could it have such an ability, it’s simply absurd!"
In a moment of crisis, Shen Xing’s Danzhong Acupoint on his chest and the Qi Sea Acupoint in his lower abdomen both shot out streams of True Qi.
Like a "vector engine," an opposite thrust erupted, propelling him to rapidly retreat and avoid the Plasma Howitzer.
The blue plasma exploded, melting a large pit into the ground, and Shen Xing also felt wave after wave of fatigue.
He was already no match, with half his True Qi, Immortal Will, and weapons gone... he couldn’t hold on.
Shen Xing had a premonition and desperately screamed,
"Mortals are nothing but pigs and dogs! You, me, the Chuyun Emperor, the Five Mountains Immortal Sect—we are of the same kind! Your so-called justice is a joke! No one will remember your deeds!"
To kill a man and crush his heart, this Governor, knowing he would die, wanted to strike at Lu Li’s state of mind.
But Lu Li merely said indifferently, "Justice? Killing you lot is merely a personal hobby of mine."
Along with the words, three heads thunderously bit down, two dragon claws swooped from the sky, and the dragon’s tail also whipped over.
Unable to dodge forever, Shen Xing avoided the initial strikes but was hit like a baseball by the dragon’s tail and sent flying.
Midair, he was struck by a dragon claw, and with a resounding boom, he was driven into the ground, creating a large crater with radiating fissures.
Shen Xing lay in the center of the crater, with crackles spreading like porcelain over his skin.
He opened his mouth as though to speak again but instead spat out a mouthful of blood plasma and turned his head to look at Li Yuanzhong.
Li Yuanzhong raised his hand, and the Pine Pattern Sword shot out, piercing through his forehead.
This was also a mercy kill. Li Yuanzhong was about to suggest to Lu Li that they leave a whole corpse and refrain from devouring it.
But this thought hadn’t crossed Lu Li’s mind at all.
He only devoured members of alien races, and after consuming five strong Chuyun people, he had enough.
"Daoist Master, I’ll enter the Spirit Realm now."
"Go then, be careful. I will watch over things here."
After a brief exchange between the old and the young, Xia Weiyun also transmitted a message, "Don’t forget to look for Eunuch Hua for Mr. Nan."
"I’ll remember that."
Lu Li responded and flashed into the entrance of the Spirit Realm.
The crowd watching from near and far observed the dark fissure with varied expressions, wanting to try their luck but not daring to enter.
However, in that moment, a graceful figure shot into it without any hesitation—it was Su Qing!
"I’ll go see if I can help Lu; maybe he’ll think of me favorably."
