Lin Ming used Qing to clean the stone, hesitated for a moment, picked up the axe from the ground and gently tapped the cube-shaped stone with the blunt side, without causing any damage.

  It was expected that the stone could remain intact in the golden-backed pangolins belly, which in itself shows that its material is extremely hard. Lin Ming gradually increased his strength, and finally used all his might to strike, resulting in the axe head and iron anvil being dented, but the cubic stone did not even lose a corner.

  Whoa!

  Lin Ming was shocked, he had expected the stone to be hard, but he hadnt thought it would be this hard. What on earth was this thing made of?

  Lin Ming couldnt think of a reason, this stone was very strange and had an unusual shape, maybe it was made by some master craftsman using some kind of hard material. Thinking like this, Lin Ming casually put the stone into his pocket, if he really couldnt figure it out, he could just use it as a decoration.

  Lin Ming put away his knives and returned to the room assigned to him in the Great Ming Pavilion to rest.

  Lin Ming was really tired after practicing his fist for a day and then spending two hours on bone refinement.

  Lin Ming simply sat cross-legged, regulating his breath for a bit before lying down on the bed without even taking off his clothes. He quickly fell asleep. The beds provided by Da Ming Xuan for its staff were very comfortable, and Lin Ming, as the son of the military commander, didnt have to worry about being disturbed while sleeping here.

  This sleep, Lin Ming slept extremely soundly and sweetly. He had a very strange dream, in which he saw a palace of jade towers and crystal palaces, each one made of beautiful jade, with exquisite craftsmanship that left people speechless.

  Beautiful women with elegant attire and excellent temperament and appearance are shuttling in the palace, and occasionally rare birds and auspicious beasts fly across the sky, as if it were a fairyland on earth.

  Lin Ming had never seen such a beautiful palace, not even in paintings. Just then, the scene shifted and the beautiful palace collapsed with a loud crash. In the sky appeared layers of human silhouettes, among which countless rays of light flashed by. Those rays looked beautiful but when they landed on the ground, thousands of feet of mountain peaks vanished instantly!

  The earth was torn apart, the sky was dyed red by the demonic flames, a huge array that covered hundreds of miles in range suddenly appeared out of thin air, and various mysterious symbols filled the entire sky.

  A war of this magnitude is simply unimaginable for Lin Ming! Master! An expert whose realm is beyond imagination! This absolutely cannot be compared to the Body Tempering Stage or the Gathering Yuan Stage!

  Everyone on the screen is an existence that Lin Ming cannot look up to, but where in the world would there be so many god-like figures?

  The scene shifted again, transforming into a world of ice and snow. A woman with an ethereal quality and breathtaking beauty stood alone, holding a one-inch cube in her hand, facing the silhouette of a person standing amidst tens of thousands of empty spaces.

  The woman was standing right in front of Lin Ming, less than three feet away. Although he knew that these were just illusions, Lin Ming could still clearly feel an extremely powerful and sacred gentle aura emanating from the womans body!

  What surprised Lin Ming the most was that the cube in the womans hand was exactly the same strange stone he had found in the belly of the Golden-backed Pangolin during the day!

  The girl spoke a string of words, but they were extremely vague. Lin Ming only heard two words clearly - Rubiks Cube!

  Rubiks Cube?

  For some reason, Lin Ming heard these two words and suddenly thought of the cube-shaped stone block. Could it be that the name of the stone block was actually "Magic Cube"?

  "Boom!"

  Fierce explosion, space was torn apart, a huge vortex rolled up in the sky, this vortex had endless power, sweeping across the land, where it passed, high mountains crumbled, space collapsed, glaciers were instantly annihilated and turned into nothingness. In such a terrifying vortex, tens of thousands of human shadows turned to dust, their souls were stirred into fragments and absorbed into that magic cube!

  Lin Ming stood at the center of this storm, witnessing the vortex sweeping everything away, with everything around him turning to dust and ashes, while he himself remained untouched. The feeling was indescribable in words, and even a lifetime would not be enough to forget it!

  Lin Ming felt a cold sweat all over his body, and at this time, he found himself in an extremely vast black space. In it, countless fragments of mirrors floated, shining with bright light points. The light points were large and small, the larger ones were as big as palms, and the smaller ones were only as small as grains of rice. In the center of these countless light points, there was a white light ball about one foot in size, emitting a hazy glow, soft and sacred.

  For some reason, Lin Ming felt that the aura of this light sphere was very similar to the aura of the holy woman he had seen before. No, it should be said that they were exactly the same!

  Could it be that this sphere of light is a transformation of that sacred woman?

  Lin Ming remembered that after the spatial storm broke out, the woman transformed into a white light and merged into the magic cube...

  White flowing light... Could it be this light sphere? So is this place inside the magic cube, and these light points...

  Lin Ming took a deep breath of cool air, could it be that these light spots were the fragments formed by the countless human shadows souls being torn apart by the spatial storm and then absorbed into the magic cube?

  Lin Ming felt an unprecedented shock!

  He is now wide awake, and all the scenes that just happened are still vivid in his mind. Although his rationality tells him that he was dreaming, he cant believe it was a dream. Everything in the dream was incredibly realistic. The devastating storm that destroyed heaven and earth still lingers in Lin Mings mind. How could an ignorant young man like himself, who had never even seen a master of the Condensing Void Realm, have such a strange and grandiose dream that shocked him?

  So are these illusions true? This strange stone called the Magic Cube, has swallowed countless powerful beings that even I couldnt look up to?

  Lin Ming couldnt imagine which country would have so many strong people that just their aura alone was suffocating. He gazed at the countless, scattered, colorful lights floating in the dark space. After a long time, he hesitantly stretched out his hand and lightly touched a light point that was closest to him, smallest in size, and had the dimmest glow.

  Just as Lin Ming touched the light point, it suddenly sank into his fingertips. Lin Ming didnt have time to react and instantly felt a heavy hammer strike his head, causing him to grunt and fall directly to the ground.

  "Ahhhhh!"

  Lin Ming tightly hugged his head, feeling as if something was desperately drilling into his brain. The heart-wrenching pain made Lin Ming want to smash his skull and take out that thing!

  Irresistible! Lin Ming felt as if he was about to be swallowed up!

  Engulf?

  Its done, those ownerless soul fragments, instinctively wanting to devour their own spiritual sea!

  "Damn it!"

  Lin Ming realized this, and for a brief moment, he felt a sense of panic in his heart. However, he quickly calmed down, as the fragment was only an extremely small piece, and its owner had long since passed away. How could he lose to such a tiny, masterless consciousness?

  Suddenly letting out a loud roar, Lin Mings fists clenched tightly, his fingernails deeply embedded in his flesh and blood, holding on to his original heart! My martial arts heart!

  I am determined to pursue the ultimate in martial arts, how can I die here!?

  Lin Ming didnt know how to dispel that masterless residual thought, he just gritted his teeth and desperately resisted. All sorts of chaotic scenes flooded into his mind, the inhuman pain made Lin Ming almost faint, but he still gritted his teeth, guarding the last bit of clarity in his mind, guarding his unshakeable martial arts heart!

  This inhuman torment didnt know how long it lasted, before slowly fading away. Lin Ming finally woke up from his dream, opened his eyes to find the sky already dimly lit. His whole body was drenched in cold sweat, his quilt was wet, and his palms were covered with blood from his fingernails!

  Seeing this scene, Lin Ming can be 100% sure that it was not a dream before. No nightmare could have such an effect.

  He thought to himself, and couldnt help but feel a chill run down his spine. A persons soul is composed of two parts: the spiritual imprint and memory. If the spiritual imprint is erased, the soul becomes an ownerless soul, which only has instincts. The soul he touched was just a tiny fragment, about half the size of a grain of rice, and its light was extremely dim. It almost swallowed him whole, it was really too terrifying! If he had touched a larger fragment at that time, he might have already become an idiot!

  That Rubiks Cube is really too dangerous!

  Lin Ming thought to himself, suddenly his face changed color, huh...... in his own mind...

  Theres a lot more stuff!

  Law Array... Inscription... Engraving... Various strange symbols, various mysterious characters, various ancient and powerful weapon diagrams...

  What is this thing?

  Is it the memory carried by that ownerless soul?

  This idea made Lin Mings mind tremble with a faint realization that this memory might be an unimaginable wealth...

  Complex memories, although already entered Lin Mings mind, however do not resemble his own memories that can be called at will, but rather need a bit of organization and integration.

  When encountering arrays, inscriptions and the like, Lin Ming would often skip over them without a second glance. These things were somewhat incomplete and disorganized, seemingly originating from a profession that engraved inscriptions onto weapons.

  Lin Ming had no intention of studying this profession for the time being, he had many more things that needed and yearned for, and continued to search. Lin Ming held his breath until a certain moment when his spirit shook, the cultivation method of the Body Tempering Stage - "Hunyuan Lianfeng Jing"!

  Inherit Kung Fu!

  Why is Tiān Yùn Wǔ Fǔ far inferior to Qī Xuán Wǔ Fǔ? Its because of the inheritance!
