The legendary warrior

Boom!

At that moment, there was nothing but utter chaos in Ricky's mind. He felt like the sky had fallen, and the earth seemed to have been pulled from under him, rendering him afloat in a dark, endless void. All kinds of cruel and painful experiences flashed in his mind as he floated in this void, continuing until he was ready to succumb to devastation.

"This is a test and an opportunity at the same time. Besides, the king and the queen set up this pool, and it only allows warriors who have condensed the heart of illusion to get their inheritance."

The illusion power aimed to overwhelm and break his mind. He needed to resist its efforts with his tenacious willpower.

If he remained steadfast against this test, then he could finally have the chance to condense the heart of illusion.

There was one gargantuan problem though: he could not use any power or ability. He could only use his will.

Ricky valued perseverance and tenacity when it came to the martial arts, and he was exceedingly persistent in accomplishing something that he had already set his mind on. Perhaps, his tenacity could have some negative effects, but he persisted in what he thought was right.

He sorely needed strength. If he were strong enough, he could help Tina drive the evil spirit out of her body, and he would be able to go to the Phoenix tribe and the Celestial Sect as well.

Most importantly, only by his strength could he see his mother.

That was what he wanted to do the most, and he was prepared to sacrifice a lot for these things.

To succeed, he desperately needed to use his will to evolve the mind power, as the power of his body could not be used.

His objectives and inspirations held his mind together by a thread, encouraging him to fight and overcome this challenge. That was the power evolved from his mind power. It appeared invisible and faint, but it could become invincible with enough persistence.

Under the pressure of relentless illusions, Ricky's mind couldn't register the flow of time.

The only thing he could remember was that whenever an illusion started, he had to break the illusion through his strong will. He had to fight against the grief and invisible cruelty brought by the illusion to his heart, ripping it without mercy. At this point, he had repeatedly turned away from his family members and friends despite their phantom entreaties.

He reminded himself over and over again—they were illusionary. He could only rescue them in real life once he passed this terrible test.

Ricky suffered so much that he couldn't even tell how long this torture had been going on.

Finally, his mind entered his body, which had been in a trance. He opened his eyes and found the Illusionary Pool and the mist in the surroundings welcomed him.

"Very good! It seems that you have a strong will!" The voice of the queen's will rang out with great admiration.

"No matter the situation, you always come out on top, shining clear and bright at the last moment. With such strong willpower, you must have suffered a lot."
