Pain!
Unbearably intense pain, originating from the soul, nearly maddening, even wishing for death.
Lu Chengfeng's will wasn't considered strong; the reason he could smoothly progress to this day was more due to gifted talent refining others' foundations, which could cleanse the soul and naturally allow one's will to grow.
Adding to that, after beginning to cultivate combat techniques, using combat techniques to hone the soul enabled gradual growth and transformation, but compared to other True Monarchs, his will wasn't strong.
Therefore, when he tried to sever gifted talent from his own divine soul with the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Saber, the pain that erupted instantly sparked a thought of suicide.
Better dead than alive, truly better dead than alive!
The pain of the soul is different from physical pain, unable to be relieved, unable to dissipate, unable to be shifted, not even able to faint.
