"Break time is over, the second round begins."
The scenery around me changed; was this the sea? I was stunned. I couldn't swim, how could I move forward? Breathing was difficult; it felt like it was going to take my life. I struggled desperately, but I sank faster. Oh no, if a few more Sea Beasts showed up, I'd be done for even quicker. My mind began to scatter, and I was about to lose consciousness; the water was my Water's Nemesis.
"Hold your breath, remember, Pure Sound first layer, Golden Garment, defense." A voice suddenly echoed in my mind, and I calmed down. I felt a layer of golden light surrounding me about a meter away, as if I were on land, with no discomfort at all. However, not long after, three massive creatures charged at me quickly. They collided with the golden layer; although they didn't break through, I felt a strong pain.
"Your Soul Energy won't last long; quickly use Bone Flute to attack." The voice sounded again. I activated my Soul Energy and began to play the Bone Flute. The attack power of the Bone Flute seemed weaker in the water; the Sea Beasts didn't retreat but merged into one giant Sea Beast that repeatedly struck and broke through the protection of Golden Garment. Little Pink appeared again; it seemed to be struggling here as well. "Master, let's attack together; I'll assist."
I gathered the little remaining Soul Energy and forced myself to play a melody. A column of milky white light surged towards the Sea Beast, followed by Little Pink's attack. There was a loud bang as the seawater exploded. I felt my body thrown out along with the blasted water. It was over; there weren't many in this second round, but their strength was a level above the first round. This illusion really shouldn't be underestimated.
Soaked to the skin, I lay down again without caring about the sand sticking to me; as long as I made it to the next round, that was fine. Who was that voice earlier? It wasn't Little Pink; Pure Sound had already merged with me, and I had never heard it speak.
"You haven't fully merged yet." The voice rang out again, seemingly emanating from within my body.
"Who are you? How can you be inside my body?"
"I am the master of Pure Sound." The voice sounded ethereal. Suddenly, my head felt heavy, and I fainted. When I opened my eyes again, everything was dark; what was happening?
"Don't be afraid; I brought you here." A faint white light appeared in the darkness and slowly transformed into a person dressed in pure white, radiating a sacred aura that resembled Snow Spirit but also didn't.
"I am Yu."
"That day, when Snow Spirit placed Pure Sound inside me, it mentioned you." I felt a deep respect for him, and the aura around him made me unable to look directly at him. This was the gap, the difference between humans and gods.
"Ah, I know all about that. In fact, I have been hiding within Pure Sound all this time. When I gave it to Snow Spirit, I left my last remaining Soul Energy there because I wanted to accompany her. Although she later gave it to you, Pure Sound still carries her essence."
"I'm sorry. If it weren't for me, Snow Spirit wouldn't have disappeared." I felt that he was very lonely, like a prisoner; if it weren't for me, at least he could still be with Snow Spirit.
"Don't blame yourself; this was our choice. During this time, you have done well. I believe Snow Spirit would be very happy too. After the previous adjustments, Pure Sound has truly merged with you now. My time is limited, so listen carefully to what comes next."
"Pure Sound is now a part of you. Previously, you were only using a tiny fraction of its power. The Golden Garment you just used is the most basic defensive skill. As your Soul Power increases, it will also grow stronger. The existence of Pure Sound can enhance your own strength as support. The Bone Flute in your hand is your main offensive weapon. Pure Sound has five layers: Defense, Speed, Flight, Break, and Restoration. You have now entered the first layer. Besides these five layers, purification is its characteristic; this is how you can survive here. The first four layers are easy to understand; when it's time for you to learn them, I will teach you myself. The last one, Restoration Technique, even if you learn it, I hope you won't use it. After all, you are human; restoration is an act against nature. The first time costs half your lifespan; the second time leads to complete annihilation. Do you remember?"
I wouldn't be foolish enough to sacrifice my life to save others; that would be counterproductive. Although I can be impulsive at times, I still understand the principles of nature.
"Yes, I remember everything."
"Good. This time I manifested thanks to your power. I left some Soul Power in Pure Sound, and when it's time for you to acquire skills, it will teach you itself. Now my Soul Power is about to run out; promise me one last thing: do not become a demon."
"I solemnly swear: Pure Sound will always remain pure; if I break this vow, may Xi Meng be shattered."
When I opened my eyes again, I saw Little Pink looking at me with concern. I stood up and said, "Alright, Little Pink, I'm fine now. Let's hurry and prepare for the next challenge."
Since becoming a Dream Soul Master, I've witnessed many lives fade away; regardless of who they were, once they disappeared, they were gone forever. For Snow Spirit and Yu, I will continue to strive on behalf of both of you. Prisoner, I'll be waiting for you.
