Dragon's Origin

#43 - The Power of Faith

The four that Lü Wenhou killed, as well as the ones hiding in Wang Sheng's room to kill him, were all guards of the Dai family. To be precise, they were direct subordinates of Fourth Master Dai. It's only natural for Fourth Master Dai to personally take action when his direct subordinates are killed.

"Why aren't you worried at all?" Seeing that Wang Sheng only said 'oh' after hearing the news, Song Yan couldn't help but panic.

"Why should I be worried?" Wang Sheng really didn't care at all. So what if it's Fourth Master Dai? He's about to leave this place anyway. When the time comes, he'll just dive into the mountains. Even if ten Fourth Master Dais come, Wang Sheng won't be afraid.

This isn't Wang Sheng being arrogant, but rather the confidence that his jungle survival skills learned on Earth give him. Especially after seeing the tracking skills of the Song family and the assassins from Worry-Free City, he gained confidence from the difference between scientific methods and blind groping.

It's not that Wang Sheng looks down on the jungle survival skills of the natives of this world. Often, experts are among the common people. The problem is that Fourth Master Dai isn't a master from among the common people, but a proud direct descendant from a high-ranking family. No matter how high his cultivation is, he wouldn't be willing to spend months with Wang Sheng in the jungle.

Song Yan was almost going crazy. She had just learned this news from the family's intelligence network and immediately rushed to inform him, but the person involved, Wang Sheng, wasn't worried at all. She guessed that Wang Sheng didn't know how powerful Fourth Master Dai was, so he was like this.

"You don't know, Fourth Master Dai is already a peak Fourth Stage expert." Song Yan explained to Wang Sheng very cautiously, "I know you can kill a peak Third Stage Thousand Illusion Poisonous Serpent, and also a Fourth Stage initial Thousand Illusion Poisonous Serpent, but Fourth Master Dai is a hundred times more terrifying than those two snakes combined."

When killing the Thousand Illusion Poisonous Serpent, the first one was okay, but Wang Sheng was already quite embarrassed with the second one, and was directly knocked away. In the face of the Thousand Illusion Poisonous Serpent's enormous power, Wang Sheng was no better than a fragile egg. But that was only the initial Fourth Stage, how terrifying is a peak Fourth Stage expert?

"Fourth Master Dai is not only powerful, but also intelligent and cruel." Song Yan was really afraid that Wang Sheng would underestimate Fourth Master Dai, so she explained in great detail, "Among the experts from the five great families who have been traveling outside in the past ten years, Fourth Master Dai ranks first. The number of experts who have died at his hands is countless, and it is even rumored that a Fourth Stage initial expert was killed by him. You, an insignificant ordinary person…"

Just as she said this, Song Yan suddenly stopped. She had been too anxious and spoke too quickly, not noticing the changes in Wang Sheng. Now that she mentioned being insignificant, Song Yan suddenly realized that Wang Sheng seemed to have changed a little, exuding a faint aura all over his body.

This scene was clearly the unique manifestation of just entering the First Stage. How could he still be insignificant? However, Wang Sheng's soul was personally checked by Song Yan at the time, and it was specially tested again afterwards. From beginning to end, it was an insignificant remnant soul. Even if the remnant soul was replenished with a Yuan Cultivation Pill in the end, there would never be any possibility of improvement, right?

Song Yan stopped, and Old Fish Song also looked at Wang Sheng. His vision was even better than Song Yan's. He hadn't paid attention before, but now when he looked, his eyes widened instantly, and he was speechless, unable to believe his eyes.

An insignificant soul that they had personally confirmed could actually allow Wang Sheng to advance to the First Stage. How was this possible?

Song Yan and Old Fish Song were almost going crazy. How could this kind of thing that completely defied common sense, logic, and normal thinking happen? Is there still justice in this world?

"Attack me!" Old Fish Song still couldn't believe his eyes and had to confirm it before he could be sure. Otherwise, he would never admit what he saw.

Wang Sheng didn't refuse. He clenched his fist and punched Old Fish Song. This punch was aimed at Old Fish Song's chest, but he only slightly infused it with some spiritual energy, not using his full strength, just to let Old Fish Song feel it.

Bang, the punch hit Old Fish Song. Then, Old Fish Song clearly felt the spiritual energy contained in Wang Sheng's fist. This could never be fake.

"How is this possible?" Old Fish Song looked at Wang Sheng as if he were looking at a freak, his face full of shock, and muttered this sentence.

Song Yan didn't need to feel it herself. She knew that Uncle Old Fish's feelings would never be wrong. However, she had clearly watched Wang Sheng use the Yuan Mirror to show that insignificant remnant soul at that time. Could it be that the Yuan Mirror was broken?

Without saying a word, Song Yan turned around and left the courtyard, instructing the guards waiting in the courtyard. Now that Song Yan had passed the family trial and her status as the eldest miss had been restored, it was natural for the guards to handle small matters like fetching a Yuan Mirror.

Before long, the guards diligently found three Yuan Mirrors from outside. The eldest miss didn't say how many, so they naturally found more, even if one had a problem, there would be backups.

"Let me see!" Song Yan took the three Yuan Mirrors and rushed into the house, directly handing them to Wang Sheng.

Wang Sheng reached out and took a Yuan Mirror. According to the last posture, he held the two handles of the Yuan Mirror with both hands, and then the Yuan Mirror began to show the graphic and color of the soul.

After a while, the Yuan Mirror showed the graphic of a carp. That's right, there was no difference from what he saw last time. Wang Sheng's soul was a carp.

After waiting for a long time, the edge of the Yuan Mirror didn't change color, it was still the original color of the mirror. Gray is the worst in the ranks, one star, white two stars, then red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple correspond to three to eight stars respectively, and black is nine stars. No color indicates that Wang Sheng's soul grade is still insignificant.

From the Yuan Mirror, Wang Sheng's soul is still an absolutely insignificant grade, but what about that spiritual energy attack? Could it be that an insignificant soul can also cultivate spiritual energy attacks?

This is a subversive thing of common sense. Song Yan and Old Fish Song were puzzled. Were they wrong? Or was Wang Sheng wrong? You, an insignificant soul, how can you cultivate to the First Stage and make people so embarrassed?

They changed three Yuan Mirrors in a row, and each time the result was the same. One Yuan Mirror may have a problem, but the probability of three Yuan Mirrors obtained from different channels having problems at the same time is too small, so small that it is almost impossible. That is to say, what they saw was completely the truth.

"How did you do it?" Song Yan asked tremblingly.

Wang Sheng was about to speak, but Old Fish Song stopped him. Uncle Old Fish went to the courtyard and directly instructed the guards who came with him. Then, the dozen or so guards surrounded the entire small courtyard, and no one was allowed to approach within ten feet. After doing all this, Old Fish Song patrolled around, then returned to the house and nodded to Wang Sheng and Song Yan.

"Which point are you referring to?" Wang Sheng asked in more detail.

"Your soul is clearly insignificant, why can you cultivate to the First Stage?" Song Yan knew that she was asking a little anxiously. At this time, after Old Fish Song's actions, she had calmed down and asked in detail.

As soon as these words came out, in the small house three courtyards away, the black-clothed man with the "iron pot" on his head shook all over, and then repeated Song Yan's question in a low voice.

"What?" A'Qi and Big Bear were directly stimulated by the black-clothed man's words and jumped up. They finally knew that too much noise would definitely alert the Song family's guards, so they forcibly suppressed their shock. A'Qi even asked in disbelief, "Big Ear, did you hear me right?"

"I definitely didn't hear wrong." Big Ear threw a sentence to A'Qi and Big Bear, then ignored them and concentrated on listening to the movement over there.

A'Qi and Big Bear looked at me, and I looked at you, and both saw the incredible light in each other's eyes. Big Ear is their partner, his soul is a big-eared bat, and his hearing is extraordinary. With the help of the two iron pots on his head, he can hear the footsteps of ants twenty feet away.

Over the years, Big Ear has never disappointed his partners. Just now, A'Qi and Big Bear were just too shocked by what they heard, so they subconsciously doubted it.

Being able to allow an insignificant ordinary soul to possess the strength of the First Stage is simply a huge secret. If their family masters it, the family's strength can be increased tenfold out of thin air. Think about how many insignificant people there are in the family? Ten or a hundred times more than the number of people who can cultivate. If they all possessed the strength of the First Stage, what would that be?

If Wang Sheng can answer, he can't miss a single word. Neither of them dared to disturb Big Ear, for fear that he would mishear a word.

Song Yan and Old Fish Song were even more nervous, their hearts beating non-stop. Wang Sheng's answer was likely to be the key for the Song family to rise again, so they couldn't help but pay attention to it.

"Confidence!" Wang Sheng didn't completely hide anything, and said the most critical part: "If you firmly believe that you can do it, then you will definitely be able to do it."

"Confidence?" Song Yan listened to Wang Sheng's explanation, and still didn't quite understand, and urged anxiously: "I know confidence, but how to do it, explain it more clearly."

"This is actually related to myself. You also know that I never knew what a soul was before." Wang Sheng thought for a while, and decided to reveal some things to try on Song Yan. If it works, maybe his clues to find the woman in his dream will be clearer.

Wang Sheng's words made Song Yan and Old Fish Song nod together. When Wang Sheng first met them, he was a stunned young man who knew nothing about souls. Song Yan personally went into battle to enlighten Wang Sheng.

"Because I never knew what a soul was, I don't have those fixed common sense that you have instilled or are born with since childhood." Wang Sheng replied very seriously: "I don't believe that an insignificant soul must have no future, and I don't believe that I can't break the rules. I firmly believe that I can do it, so I did it."

"This is the power of confidence." Wang Sheng concluded at the end, looking at Old Fish Song and Song Yan and asked: "Do you understand?"
