Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 312 "Reborn in the Fire"

"Is this... the ritual completed?"

Lapis Lazuli understood instantly.

Ai Lu also tilted his head. It was such a strong psychic reaction that his eyes felt a little painful.
"——I have achieved [Heart of Practice]."

Song Shi put down his hand and tapped his heart with his index finger: "My intention should be understood now."

"Psionic Skills. Practice of the Heart of Casting." Lapis Lazuli asked cautiously: "My database contains very little valid information. What is its effect?"

"It varies from person to person."

Song Shi said calmly: "My words are 'unmovable, unshakable and indestructible'."

As he spoke, Song Shi's index finger left his chest and tapped his brow.

People's hearts, thoughts, and ideas are never static and consistent. Even a recognized brave warrior will feel fear at certain moments, but he can only suppress and crush the fear and continue to move forward.

They are the product of the entanglement and interweaving of strands of the same or different threads, rather than a pure "whole". Bravery is only bravery, cowardice is only cowardice, and greed is only greed - it is not like that at all.

Most of the time, this has no effect. The brave generals in the army can crush their fear, and those with strong wills can quickly dispel the idea of ​​giving up and continue to move towards their goals. To them, these are just trivial thoughts that can be easily dispelled.

However, there are times in this world that cannot be encompassed by “most of the time”.

[Consensus] is best at capturing the complex and trivial thoughts of the target in that brief moment, and infiltrating into them based on this, expanding imperceptibly, and silently infecting and tampering with the target's entire mind.

This is not something that can be overcome by "determination" alone.

Even enlightened gods and Buddhas, when faced with the elusive and traceless six desire demons, have experienced examples of their golden bodies collapsing, their hearts being contaminated by demons, and their Dharma bodies falling apart.

——“Unmovable, indestructible and incorruptible.”

And for Song Shi, the effect of [Practice of the Heart] is to transform every bit of his mind into a "whole", reaching the point where one is many and many is one!
The "mind" thus recast will be pushed to a new height, reaching an immovable, indestructible state. From then on, most disturbances to the mind can be completely ignored.

More than that.

When the "mind" is unified into one as many and many as one, it is like five powerful fingers clenched together to produce a more powerful fist.

With the achievement of [Heart of Practice], the spiritual power, control, strength, etc. displayed by Song Shi will be taken to a higher level. His will will be implemented in every inch of spiritual power, and every inch of spiritual power will drive his will to practice!
Without any warning, Ai Lu pinched the short blade with two fingers and threw it out with his backhand!
These alloy short blades, which were magnetized and stored in the magnetization box in advance, were driven by the electromagnetic acceleration field in the palm of the prosthetic limb and the [Balance] psychic energy. Their lethality at close range was no less than that of an anti-material sniper shot.

Then, with a teeth-grinding sound of "snapping", the short blade stopped.

To be more precise, it was a hand that grabbed the short blade.

The right hand surrounded by flames slowly grasped the short blade from the chest. The flames seemed to condense into an invisible field between the five fingers. The short blade continued to tremble, unable to move even a little.

Immediately, the five fingers were lowered and clenched completely.

Song Shi slowly turned the short blade and handed it back to Ai Lu: "Hold it well, don't drop it."

".Amazing."

Ai Lu took the short blade, inserted it back into the magnetized box lining it, and praised: "It's amazing."

"It's just a little trick, not worth mentioning." Song Shi smiled.

Ai Lu blinked and said nothing, but Lapis Lazuli spoke up: "How did you do that?"

Song Shi immediately replied: "It's just spreading the 'scorched earth' in a small space, 'rendering' changing the nature of the air between us, and finally 'Sui Shi' suppressing the energy to finish it. With the blessing of 'Heart of Practice and Casting', it can be pushed further. Taking this blow with bare hands is nothing."

"By the way, I actually predicted your attack, so I prepared for it in advance."

Lapis Lazuli was about to say something when he saw Song Shi suddenly take a step back.

"Please cover up for me..."

They heard the other person saying this and slowly opened their arms. "——Next, let's get to the point."

And the next moment, a raging fire broke out.

It was no longer like the "ignition" on the psychic level when achieving [Heart of Practice] not long ago. At this moment, even if an ordinary person was here, he could clearly see that flames were rising from the young man in front of him and he was completely burning!

silent.

But in a trance, I seemed to be able to hear it.

The crackling of firewood and the dull thump of anvils—

[Forging Flame].

Like a river rushing and surging, overflowing and boiling with a gurgling sound -

【Burning and boiling blood】.

Even like thundering drums, the sound of heartbeats again and again——

【The heart of practice】.

And finally, all these sounds disappeared in an instant.

Also disappearing along with it was Song Shi!
In the burning of the endless flames, the first thing that happened was that the clothes were rolled up and burned, and then the skin was burned, revealing the bright red flesh underneath, and the flesh and blood quickly burned dry and turned into ashes.

Those transparent and white bones like jade pillars collapsed inch by inch, and the broken dust poured into the red gold fire, making it rise even more violently.

Under the gaze of Ailu and Lapis Lazuli, Song Shi gradually turned into ashes and completely disappeared in the flames.

——Then, the silence was broken and the sound rang out again.

From the empty air, there was the beating of a heart, no, it was a loud roar of a riot, suddenly bursting out!

A ball of fire came out.

Then, countless red-gold, extremely thin "threads" appeared out of thin air. Then, as if a textile machine with unimaginable dexterity began to operate at a high speed, quickly weaving these threads into shape.

That is the outline of a "heart".

If you look closely, these "lines" are clearly extremely solid psychic flames.

Amid powerful roars, these "threads" were woven faster and faster, spreading towards the surroundings with the heart as the center and turning into a human shape.

The jade-like bones reappeared, and fresh flesh and blood grew again. It was hard to tell whether it was blood or magma, the red-gold liquid flowed down the skeleton. Finally, pieces of skin grew up, covering everything.

So, here.

——Reborn in the fire.

Song Shi slowly opened his eyes, and a strong red-gold color bloomed from the depths of his pupils.

He stepped lightly on the ground.

"No, this is"

Lapis Lazuli's originally stable voice, at this moment, exceeded the data in the sound library, and she showed uncontrollable surprise.

Although it was blown up on the spot by the fifth ring and turned into scrap metal in the past, causing its memory to still not be fully restored, it is ultimately a psychic who once stepped into the fourth ring.

Compared to Ai Lu who thought, "Something big must have happened, but what exactly is it?", he understood what was happening in front of him.

——The fourth ring: [Sublimation]?!
