Before King of Destruction, who had just fallen into the deep pit, could react, another red light wave came in from the top of the pit. King of Destruction quickly raised his Zanpakuto to block it. At this time, he did not have the time to borrow strength and could not block Kirito's powerful attack. He was once again smashed deeper into the ground!
Kirito looked at King of Destruction, who was smashed deep into the ground, and heaved a sigh of relief. Looking at the bottomless pit, he thought, No matter how strong King of Destruction was, he was now a hundred meters underground. It was impossible for him to not die, right?!
After Kirito used up all the spiritual power in his Zanpakuto, he temporarily lost his spiritual power. The faint red light also slowly dissipated.
At this time, Kirito's spiritual energy was depleted by half due to the fierce battle just now. After such a fierce battle, the anger in his body slowly dissipated after venting out his anger.
At this time, after the fierce battle, Kirito's face showed exhaustion. He slowly walked toward Kazumi Kuroki and the others.
Kazumi Kuroki and the others saw the powerful King of Destruction get smashed into the ground by Kirito's attack. Their worries slowly disappeared.
Although King of Destruction was powerful, he was still an ordinary person. He was not a god, nor was he invincible. Although he did not die after falling into the Long River of Blood, it was obvious that his body had been corroded by the Long River of Blood. This ruled out the possibility that the heavens were not helping him, but that he had just escaped death by luck.
Although King of Destruction managed to escape, he was not satisfied and insisted on coming here to seek his own death. Originally, he could have continued to live. Even if he was sentenced to death by Yhwach when he returned, he could have chosen to stay somewhere else. He believed that with King of Destruction's strength, even if he did not return to Yhwach's strength, he could have simply found a place to rule over. It would have been much better than being killed right now!
What Kazumi Kuroki and Kirito did not understand was that the long river of blood would devour everything with spiritual power. Why was King of Destruction fine after falling in? Although some of his flesh was corroded by the long river of blood, his overall strength was not affected at all?
At this time, Kazumi Kuroki looked up and saw Kirito's tired face. Without thinking, she went over to help Kirito up and slowly helped him to Wise Joe Yifeng and the others.
"Kirito, are you okay?
All the anger and resentment in your body have been vented out. Do you feel better now?
Do you feel any changes in your state of mind? "
Kazumi Kuroki looked at Kirito's tired face. She could not tell that the current Kirito was the same person as the Kirito who had stomped his feet in anger earlier.
"I'm fine. As for my state of mind, I don't feel any changes." Kirito was not being humble. Kirito had just suppressed a part of his state of mind. He had not suppressed it for too long before releasing it all. The changes were minimal!
What's more, Kirito still hasn't experienced enough emotions. He's only experienced anger, and there are still a lot of emotions that he hasn't experienced yet. The growth of one's state of mind isn't only by suppressing anger, but also by experiencing the baptism of many emotions. Only then can one grow a little bit.
As the saying goes, it is easy to cultivate the body, but difficult to cultivate the mind.
Cultivating one's own physical skills and cultivating one's own combat skills was very simple. All one needed to do was find the right direction and then work hard every day. Even if one felt tired or a little lazy in the middle, it wasn't a big deal. One just needed to make up for what they didn't cultivate in the past.
Cultivating one's own state of mind was different. Cultivating one's own state of mind was not an easy thing in itself. Take Yamamoto for example. Yamamoto had cultivated for so long before he could cultivate his state of mind to the level of small success. When faced with major events, he could remain calm and deal with them calmly. Even if his subordinates were massacred in large numbers, he could still remain calm.
But even if Yamamoto had cultivated his state of mind for so long, when faced with extremely special situations or things that were far beyond his expectations, it was inevitable that his state of mind would change. This change was not bad, but it was not good either. As the saying goes, it was a blessing in disguise. When the state of mind changed, wasn't it also a kind of experience for one's own state of mind?
Kirito's state of mind was only at the beginning stage. He had suppressed his own emotions, and only one of them. In such a short time, it was impossible for him to gain much experience. Therefore, Kirito said that he did not feel any changes in his state of mind. This was not his fault. After all, the path of cultivating one's state of mind was long and difficult.
And it was precisely because the path of cultivating one's state of mind was long and difficult that many powerful people had poor mental endurance. That was to say, the level of their state of mind was too low. Only those who really valued strength knew that at the same time, they also had to cultivate their own state of mind. Only by doing both would they be able to develop more steadily.
As for those who only cultivated their external strength, although the short-term effects were obvious, over a long period of time, their increasing strength and their state of mind did not grow at the same time, causing a huge imbalance. This could easily lead to them falling into a demonic state, and then being easily killed by others!
For those who only cultivated their state of mind, because they did not have strong strength as protection, even if their state of mind was strong, they did not have the ability to protect themselves and were easily destroyed. Therefore, the lifespan of the literati of the past was very short. Even if their state of mind was strong, they could not withstand the impact of the surrounding environment and were easily forgotten in the long river of time!
Therefore, only by cultivating one's state of mind and external strength together could one survive in this cruel world. When one's state of mind and strength were cultivated to a certain point, one would be the king in the eyes of most people. The reason why Yamamoto had such prestige was not because he was the strongest, but because Yamamoto had cultivated both his state of mind and strength to the highest point at the same time!
Kazumi Kuroki had been cultivating for a long time, so it was impossible for him not to understand these principles. Therefore, he patted Kirito's shoulder lightly to show that he understood.
At this time, Kirito finally could not help but ask Wise Joe Yifeng. His tired face was filled with questions. He wanted to ask all his questions. "Wise Joe Yifeng, tell me, that bastard King Destroyer. We clearly saw him fall into the Blood River with our own eyes. The Blood River can easily devour anything with spiritual energy. Why wasn't King Destroyer torn apart by the Blood River? Why was he only corroded for a while?
