"I don't know!"
Louis said innocently.
The Elder Priest took a deep breath.
Holding back his urge to swear.
He said slowly:
"The secret technique of the Church of the God of Death and Sleep, its core is to use the power of death to stimulate the soul into an active state."
"During this process, the fear rooted in the heart will be induced and, with each breakthrough, it's like dispelling the fear in the heart."
"Your soul will become more stable, and your will, like a shining diamond, will be harder to sculpt."
"At this point, ordinary ghosts and wraith-type undead, their illusions will no longer pose any threat to you."
The Elder Priest looked at Louis speechlessly:
"So what's going on with you, completing in one step what others take years to achieve?"
Louis pondered for a moment.
He roughly understood the situation.
For some unknown reason, his soul completed the refinement in one step, and then effortlessly became immune to the illusions created by ghostly undead?
The speed was so fast that there was no process of inducing fear.
At most, he saw another self in his mind rambling about "Journey to the West," then telling him to eliminate his inner demons.
Then... then he woke up.
Afterward, the spiritual energy within him started to surge violently.
Visibly, the intensity of the spiritual energy soared.
Almost instantly, he felt like he had pierced through a fog, seeing extraordinary sights.
What a pity.
Though this power is closely related to him, it does not belong to Louis's true strength.
If he had to describe it, it's like he has an external experience bar.
When he activates the Sin Dragon Armament, this extra experience bar will be injected into his body, becoming part of his strength.
His actual professional level needs to be recalculated after adding the extra experience.
Sadly, this is not a "professional level +1" game-like numerical boost.
This extra experience bar cannot break the barrier of life level transition every 10 levels.
Otherwise, he would now possess extraordinary power.
Instead of just glimpsing the view.
But... it's not bad.
With a free level up, he now has an additional trump card.
However... his current state seems a bit off.
After all, it seems the deepest fear in his heart hasn't really been drawn out.
At most, he's heard a bunch of nonsense.
Louis briefly explained his situation to the Elder Priest.
Of course, he wasn't foolish enough to say everything directly.
He glossed over the specifics of the conversation, only saying that he didn't induce the source of fear, but that fearful things do indeed exist for him.
The Elder Priest thought for a moment and said to Louis:
"What is your name?"
"Caesar."
"Interested in hearing me introduce our god, the cold and solemn Lord of Death and Sleep?"
"Please, don't do that, I'm afraid I'll become a heretic in the church."
The heart has a sickle and red, unable to see the god in the body.
"That's really a pity," the Elder Priest sighed, "this means you have already eliminated your deepest and final fear."
"Uh..."
Louis seemed to understand what was going on.
What is he most afraid of in this world?
Without a doubt, being pushed onto the guillotine.
But from all indications, it's impossible for him to end up on the guillotine. At worst, he'd just activate the Curse Binding Legion if things went south.
Step hard on the path of a burning world!
But that being the case...
"Why does this secret technique have a whiff of a Soul Mage?"
He muttered.
This method of honing oneself and then relying on accumulated experiences to directly break through the mental limit is something Louis is only aware of Soul Mages doing.
The practice of a Soul Mage is the practice of the heart.
Theoretically, if someone had an epiphany, they could go from being a level 1 greenhorn to legendary or even a demigod in the next moment.
Even if they directly ascend to level 30, they might just be stalled at that checkpoint due to a lack of divine fire.
However, Louis has never heard of such a monster.
We can only say that in theory, professions like Soul Mages, Mind Scholars, and Psychic Warriors have this potential.
But the Elder Priest, after learning about Louis's situation, offered a suggestion:
"If possible, I suggest you don't seclude yourself in remote mountains like those Martial Monks for bitter cultivation. Your situation is too special."
Louis asked, "What do you mean?"
"You just referred to your inner fear as a heart demon. That's quite interesting," the Elder Priest chuckled, "Since you've overcome the greatest heart demon, other smaller ones won't be much of a problem for you."
Louis said nothing.
You wouldn't know how troublesome the problem is.
Things like Demon King Helmer, the Abyss's Four Gods...
These chaotic beings are not easy to target.
Even for him, he can only focus on the future.
But one thing is certainly worth affirming.
That is, the Sin Dragon Armament as an extra experience bar, in principle, the higher the accumulation of experience, the greater benefit it will bring to his future.
After all, there's no way to break the level 10 ceiling, but breaking through level 20 is not impossible.
By the time he breaks through the extraordinary level, perhaps the Sin Dragon Armament, just by piling experience bars alone, will allow him to exert level 20 energy at level 11.
This is the most important.
So, continuing to eliminate heart demons is also a good option.
The Elder Priest saw that Louis seemed to have understood this, smiled, and said:
"You have a unique advantage in this area. Going from 0 to 1 is far more difficult than from 1 to 10."
