Desolate Era: Hatching a Phoenix at the Beginning

Chapter 181: The Way to Enter the Mental World

What the leader of the Feather Dragons said made everyone look at it with a strange gaze.

“I know about the existence of the mental world.” Ye Chen nodded but then questioned, “But I’ve never heard that the mental world can let humans or mutated beasts enter.”

The Kun Peng’s skill, Devour, contained the characteristics of devouring the other party’s mental world and absorbing information. Therefore, the Kun Peng could extract memories through devouring other creatures and give them to Ye Chen.

However, even so, he couldn’t understand why a pure informationized mental world could allow a huge mutated beast like Little Purple to enter.

This didn’t make sense at all. The boundary between the mental world and the physical world should be very clear.

“No wonder you don’t believe it, Mr. Ye.” The leader of the Feather Dragons was a little frustrated. “This is an ability of the Art of Goulong. As long as there’s still some mental energy left, it can be used to create a mental space… However, the consumption of Spiritual Energy will be very great.”

“Then, what’s this space for?” Ye Chen also found it strange. “If it consumes a lot of Spiritual Energy, such a thing must have a lot of functions, right? Why did those people create it?”

“I’m not sure about its actual usage.” The leader of the Feather Dragons shook its head. “I know this characteristic. It was also taught by Divine Beast Goulong. At that time, many of our seniors had already been killed and our abilities urgently needed to be improved. Therefore, it taught us to spend a huge amount of Spiritual Energy to create a mental space of a certain high-level senior so that we can take out the cultivation method from the mental space. If I remember correctly, there were spells carved on the wall.”

“But I didn’t see any cultivation methods.” Little Purple said strangely, “The walls inside are all silver-gray and the surroundings are very clean. I can guarantee that I didn’t see any traces of spells!”

The leader of the Feather Dragons was also confused.

“Whether it’s a human or a mutated beast, the mental world after death will still have the memories of when they were alive. It’s definitely not normal to be too empty.” After answering Little Purple, it turned to Ye Chen. “However, didn’t Mr. Ye say that the Ice Fire Beetle Mystic Realm outside the array was created by humans and specially made into a Mystic Realm? It’s also possible that humans have dealt with this mental world as well.”

Ye Chen wasn’t satisfied with what it revealed.

“You’ve been talking for a long time. Where’s the main point?” he complained, “If you don’t know the reason why those people created it, can’t you tell us its characteristics?”

When the leader of the Feather Dragons heard this, it finally reacted.

“Did I not say anything about its characteristics? I really forgot. But Mr. Ye, don’t you know the characteristics of the mental world?” It quickly added, “The size of the mental world is determined by the space that the mutated beast can move in when it’s created. The material inside will be the same as the mutated beast’s Spirit Pool. Also, the mental world exists based on the Spirit Pool. Therefore, as long as the creator gets close to this piece of Spiritual Energy, it can enter the mental world through the connection with the Spiritual Energy. At that time, although the creator seems to have disappeared, the Spiritual Energy detection will show that it’s still there. This situation is very similar to what happened to Little Purple’s body just now.”

“Since you know about this phenomenon, why were you so shocked just now?” Ye Chen frowned. “If that place called the mental world can be entered through the connection of Spiritual Energy, there should also be other ways, right?”

The connection of Spiritual Energy wasn’t the best insurance. Ye Chen could completely understand.

Just like how one relied on Spiritual Energy to open the door to the ice and fire arrays, this was also a type of Spiritual Energy connection. When meeting some conditions, even a Level 10,000 mutated beast like the Godly Sea Steadying Needle could open the door. It really couldn’t be considered completely safe, although it wasn’t a big problem for him.

“How is it that easy? Although I can create this kind of space, I still haven’t figured out the principle behind it.” The leader of the Feather Dragons retorted, “The strange thing about the mental world is that only the creator can see it! When I created it back then, I could only see the space when Spiritual Energy was connected. As for the juniors whom I transferred Spiritual Energy to in order to help increase their strength, they couldn’t see it no matter what… This can definitely prove that other than the creator, no one else has the ability to enter it!”

Hearing its words, Ye Chen grasped another key point.

“Are you saying that only the creator of the mental world can see the space, but Little Purple also saw it with the Titan’s Eyes? Does this mean that the key to it is related to the eye? For example, as long as you ‘see’ it, you can enter?” He quickly asked.

The leader of the Feather Dragons was a little confused and blinked blankly.

“When creating a mental world, it’s true that you have to gather your Spiritual Energy in your eyes while performing the Art of Goulong…” It replied hesitantly, “However, creating such a space requires precision, so I’ve really never thought in the direction you mentioned.”

Instead, Little Purple shouted.

“That seems to be the case, Master! The more stable my Spiritual Energy is, the clearer I see the space. However, because I’m afraid of seeing any abnormalities again, I’m always distracted. Therefore, the time when the strengthened Titan’s Eye operates normally and allows me to see clearly will indeed be intermittent. Master, didn’t you say that my body has been flickering? This is similar to what you said!”

The leader of the Feather Dragons looked at Little Purple in confusion.

“It’s not good to confirm such important information based on speculation, right?” It advised. “How do you know that your ability to enter the space must have something to do with the Titan’s Eye? What if it’s caused by other factors…”

“Impossible! I’ve been cultivating here for a long time. Every time I see that space, I’m using the Titan’s Eye. It’s just that I don’t have enough Spiritual Energy and perceiving power to see it clearly.” Little Purple firmly denied the speculation of the leader of the Feather Dragons and made a new request.

“Master, it’s very easy to verify this matter. Can you let me calm down and see if I can enter that mental world again?” It said to Ye Chen, “I also want to know why a mental world with only a secret chamber has appeared here!”
