God-Level Special Forces Soldier

Chapter 998: Chapter 994: Pitiful Harvest

Fortunately, this situation has been encountered before, so it doesn’t cause intense panic. If you can’t see it or feel it, then it seems the only path left is to rely on luck.

But that’s the way ordinary experts might think. Xiao Tian naturally couldn’t place his future entirely on luck and fate; that would be utterly irresponsible to himself!

After standing in place for a long time, Xiao Tian suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, and two beams of golden light shot out from them. The mist surrounding him retreated to the side like it had met its nemesis, revealing the scene beyond.

Xiao Tian utilized the bit of energy with the Five Elements attribute that Duoduo had given him. However, this transformation consumed not his solid True Qi, but his Spiritual Power, and the cost was quite significant!

At least when Xiao Tian just activated it, he felt a dizziness, a sign of substantial consumption!

Knowing this situation couldn’t last long, he immediately started changing positions incessantly. After changing five times in succession, he finally found an unusual spot.

After coming to a stop, Xiao Tian hurriedly cut off the conversion that consumed tremendous Spiritual Power and proceeded slowly forward. Before long, he saw a flicker of light within the mist.

This sight instantly filled him with joy, and the previous exhaustion of Spiritual Power seemed to vanish. Revitalized, he walked forward and paid attention to the surrounding changes as he moved.

Numerous trials between life and death and the experience of encountering opportunities taught him that the closer he was to breaking the fog and seeing dawn, the more he couldn’t let down his guard. Otherwise, a single careless mistake might overturn his efforts.

Having experienced regret before, he was truly unwilling to go through it again. That feeling was even more unbearable than the most severe backlash he had ever experienced.

It was precisely this experience that led Xiao Tian to appreciate... Sometimes the pain on a psychological level far exceeds physical torment!

Fortunately, until he approached the light, nothing unusual happened. Xiao Tian sighed in relief and continued moving forward confidently.

With one step forward, the world before his eyes changed instantly. It was no longer a scene filled with heavy fog and uncertainty, but rather green hills, clear waters, birds chirping, and flowers emitting fragrance. He could even vaguely hear the sound of a distant stream, making him feel like he was in a fairyland!

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Tian no longer lingered on the surroundings and began earnestly searching for the bright spot he had just seen.

Suddenly, Xiao Tian felt a brief change in the brightness above his head and quickly looked up. He saw a row of golden characters passing overhead: ”Destruction and survival are opposites, moment and eternity coexist!”

Upon seeing this line, Xiao Tian immediately had an impulse to curse out loud. ”I’ve come all this way, and all you show me is a few sentences?!”

However, complaints are complaints, dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, Xiao Tian seriously pondered the meaning of these two sentences. Moments of enlightenment could not possibly be trivial.

In short... The more unreasonable something seems, often the more reasonable it might actually be!

Destruction and survival as opposites is a universally known truth; but moment and eternity coexisting is hard to comprehend. While survival and destruction as opposites make sense, how could moment and eternity coexist?

Just as Xiao Tian was puzzled by these two sentences, he suddenly experienced a flash before his eyes and then a momentary pain in his forehead, as if it was being forced open by someone and pried apart forcefully.

The intense pain caused him to break out in a sweat within seconds, and he curled into a ball like a shrimp, making a completely ungraceful gesture.

However, this was just the beginning. Following the instant headache, countless pieces of knowledge he had never known before seemed to flood into his mind through that ”wound,” leaving him feeling overwhelmed.

Xiao Tian clutched his head, his eyes bulging like those of a hyperthyroidism patient, the corners of his eyes tearing involuntarily. Even with his high threshold for pain, he felt on the verge of collapse several times.

Too overwhelmed to examine the new knowledge carefully, Xiao Tian immediately steadied his mind amidst the relentless waves of pain that sought to topple him.

...

How long this painful period lasted, Xiao Tian had no clear concept. It felt both like an instant and as long as several years.

At this moment, Xiao Tian couldn’t even muster the strength to move a single finger, and he let out a bitter smile internally. So this is what ”moment and eternity coexist” means?

Of course, while he lamented, Xiao Tian definitely didn’t think such words were that shallow and simple. Whatever appeared during moments of enlightenment must contain deep meaning, waiting to be slowly explored and understood in the future.

Speaking of understanding, Xiao Tian suddenly thought of the knowledge that had forcibly entered his mind in an almost unreasonable manner. Since he couldn’t move, now was a good time to review it carefully.

However, as Xiao Tian tried to recall, he was shocked to find that he couldn’t remember any of the newfound knowledge, not even a single word. All he recalled was the enduring pain he had experienced; all else was a blank.

This surprised Xiao Tian. Could there be no justice to enduring such suffering for no gain at all?!

Aside from ”nothing gained,” was there anything of worth he could grasp from it?

Suddenly, Xiao Tian remembered those two golden shining sentences: ”Survival and destruction are opposites, moment and eternity coexist!” His mind became active again... Could it be that just these two sentences alone required such a hefty price?

Quite disappointed, Xiao Tian instinctively entered his Divine Sense Realm. In any case, restoring his Spiritual Power was the priority. Otherwise, who knew how long this moment of enlightenment would last, and when he returned to reality, he might find himself defenseless, like a lamb in a pack of wolves.

He would become a mere morsel of meat ready to be feasted upon at any time.

As for his Divine Sense Realm, Xiao Tian was extremely familiar with it; he wouldn’t make a mistake even with his eyes closed. He followed his memory towards the Endless Life left by Lin Bingxuan.

However, before he could take two steps, a bang resounded, and his face suddenly hurt as he was forced to stagger backwards, landing on the ground, which greatly annoyed him.

But more than that, he was puzzled. What on earth is going on?
