Phantasmal Genesis - Chapter 55: Taboo

This is?!

Yasuo was incomparably familiar with this wall of wind, and he was similarly familiar with that red-coloured wind.

And as he lost his concentration, the red wind sent the unguarded Yasuo flying as Blood Moon moved swiftly, his incredibly fast speed seemingly cutting the air around him.

“Last breath!”

As if he had duplicated himself, countless blood-red figures appeared in the winds, bellowing as they swung their swords. But as the dust was pulled into the whirlwind, it made it hard to see what was going on inside.

To the shock of the onlookers, Yasuo seemed to be fighting against the formless enemy, and he seemed to have the lower hand?

They couldn’t see the phantasy, but they could sense the attacks created by spiritual power.

In the eyes of the unknowing crowd, Yasuo’s figure floated in the air, and in the end, he fell to the ground with a bang, resembling a piece of torn fabric.

Meng Ke knew that humans might forget happiness, but they would never forget the pain. Only by completely suppressing someone, would they become completely submissive.

“Right now, answer some of my questions.”

Dispelling three of the phantasies, the white figure looked down on Yasuo, who was struggling against the spiritual power suppressing him as he tried to get up.

“What are you here for?”

Meng Ke had asked this question before, but why would the previously unruly and arrogant Yasuo answer?

“I don’t know!”

Yasuo was drenched in blood, his handsome face covered with countless injuries.

“You don’t know?”

Meng Ke laughed.

The red dot represented Yasuo, and his first appearance wasn’t at the central square!

He had rushed over from somewhere else, and after his first meeting with Xuan Nv, he chose to return to where Meng Ke had first noticed him.

His actions pointed to the fact that he was trying to do something.

“What are you waiting here for?”

Meng Ke smiled gently as he looked at Yasuo, and suddenly, Yasuo roared softly as his body trembled and his eyes reddened.

Someone once said that childbirth was the strongest pain in the world?

Then, that person must have never experienced being kicked in the nuts.

It was a feeling as if the world had exploded, and everything had died.

The current Yasuo felt as if someone was kicking his nuts consecutively at an incredibly high speed, and his subconsciousness had no way of ignoring this pain!

“As long as you tell me.”

Meng Ke continued smiling gently, resembling a devil as his temptatious voice rang out.

It was as if he had gone mad, Yasuo couldn’t even focus his sight as foam bubbled out of his mouth. He couldn’t faint, and he felt as though a million years had passed as he continued to experience this pain.

Even death wasn’t this painful!

Even breaking up with your loved one, being abandoned by your family, or even being betrayed by your best friend……

Who were the ones that talked about how mental pain was the worst kind of pain!?

Could mental pain truly compare to a millionth of this kind of pain!?

If they had experienced this for even a minute, he would guarantee that they would forget whatever mental pain they had!

If it weren’t for the fact that Yasuo’s willpower surpassed an ordinary human’s, he probably would have bitten his tongue and killed himself by now.

“I……really……don’t……know……” Yasuo opened his mouth in despair, but he couldn’t even finish a sentence.

Meng Ke continued to look at him with a gentle smile, and he subtly lowered the pain transmitted.

“Ee…..”

At that moment, Yasuo felt a sense of refreshing joy surge into his heart clearly.

That feeling felt as though he had just entered heaven.

But in the next second, the same pain re-entered his mind, and Yasuo continued to struggle as he felt even more pain.

A second of relief made the pain even worse!

Did he believe me for a second just now?

Yasuo thirsted after that moment of relief, and a thought surfaced in his heart.

So……lying works?

“I……am……here……to……fight……”

And the moment he spoke, the pain lessened by a bit again.

“I……am……here……to……look……for……enemies……”

The pain lessened a little more again.

“I…am here……to……show-off…”

The pain decreased by a bit……

……

And as Yasuo continued to lie, the pain gradually went away as a blissful sensation appeared in his heart.

Every time he lied, this sensation would increase little by little allowing him to feel as though he had entered the gates of heaven.

The pain was gone, but now, he started to thirst after the blissful feeling.

This was a sensation that couldn’t even compare to drugs!

That was truly heaven!

People who had suffered through immense pain would desire even more comfort, and Yasuo didn’t know when or how, but he started to lose himself in that refreshing feeling.

But happiness was always short, and before he could completely enjoy himself, that feeling stopped.

“No!” Yasuo crawled up from the ground in fright, kneeling before the white-dressed men. And at this moment, he was no longer in any pain.

But his body was still trembling.

“Give it! Give it to me! I’ll tell you everything!”

Meng Ke knew that even the most resilient person wouldn’t be able to resist the joy after suffering through such pain.

And as long as they wavered, they would be like Yasuo, begging on the floor like a dog.

He had to subdue him first to stop him from resisting, and then torture him to waver his will.

“You’re just like a dog right now!” Meng Ke mocked as he looked down upon him, he didn’t conceal the disgust and hatred in his eyes.

Yasuo paused.

“Yes yes yes! I am a dog!”

He was overjoyed as he nodded his head, and he even barked twice.

To attain that blissful feeling, what was pride?

This sight.

Countless cameras captured this sight, and everyone was utterly shocked.

What had caused this man to act like this when he was so prideful just now?

No one knew.

Meng Ke’s face hardened, he just wanted to test it out and he didn’t expect such a prideful expert filled with a heart seeking the Dao to be so weak.

Human desires were truly revolting.

Perhaps only an emotionless deity could resist his desires, but it was impossible for mortals.

“Xuan Nv, label this move as a taboo.”

“Yes, god.”

Meng Ke admitted that he could do anything and use any method to achieve eternal life and power, but he had his own bottom line.

But if it were Xuan Nv, she could truly become something even the gods would fear without any emotion.

Xuan Nv didn’t have a bottom line, but as a human, he did.

At least the current him, did.

He was repulsed by the sight of a human losing their dignity as they begged and grovelled.

Meng Ke didn’t know, if faced with such a choice in the future.

Would he lose his bottom line in the pursuit of eternity and infinity?
