Chapter 657 657 Immaterial Self 2

"What is he doing in there?" Shinari was curious, but she was wise not to disturb him and decided to walk away.

His presence alone exerted a subtle influence on the surroundings, a testament to the immense power he now held within. 

The Essence Pearls, as manifestations of his inner strength, began to radiate auras corresponding to their respective abilities. The air swirled with fiery hues, water droplets materialized and danced, a gentle breeze swept through the room, and the earth beneath him resonated with a deep, grounding energy. 

With each passing moment, Aldred\'s comprehension of his own power deepened. The magical effects in the material world intensified, and he could sense a connection between his mastery of magic and the alterations in reality. 

Aldred continued his meditation, delving even deeper into the ethereal realm within. However, as he reached the profound depths of his magical consciousness, a sudden disturbance disrupted the tranquility of the sea of mana. A malevolent, daemonic energy began to swirl around him, darkening the once vibrant magical currents.

Aldred felt the intrusion immediately and opened his eyes in alarm. The space within his immaterial world warped and contorted, giving way to the ominous presence that now threatened to devour his consciousness. The daemonic energy, like tendrils from the abyss, reached toward Aldred\'s magical essence, seeking to corrupt and consume.

"Where are these energy coming from?"

Suddenly, the Eye of Clairvoyance appeared within his consciousness as well. "Be careful, Aldred. This corrupt energy comes from the Veil to turn you into its dark slave."

"Elder?" Aldred wondered how she got here. 

"The Eye of Clairvoyance will help you fend them off. We have to fight together or you will lose your sanity."

Aldred grimaced, understanding the stake.

Aldred continued his meditation, delving even deeper into the ethereal realm within. However, as he reached the profound depths of his magical consciousness, a sudden disturbance disrupted the tranquility of the sea of mana. A malevolent, daemonic energy began to swirl around him, darkening the once vibrant magical currents.

Aldred felt the intrusion immediately and opened his eyes in alarm. The space within his immaterial world warped and contorted, giving way to the ominous presence that now threatened to devour his consciousness. The daemonic energy, like tendrils from the abyss, reached toward Aldred\'s magical essence, seeking to corrupt and consume.

As the daemonic energy encroached upon his magical realm, Aldred\'s sea of mana responded with an unexpected surge of power. The sea, once calm and orderly, erupted in a tumultuous wave that clashed against the dark forces. The clash created an otherworldly battlefield within his own consciousness.

The hellish energy persisted, attempting to penetrate Aldred\'s defenses, but the sea of mana fought back fiercely. The magical currents, infused with Aldred\'s innate strength, pushed back against the daemonic intrusion. It was a struggle between light and darkness, a battle for dominance within the confines of his own magical realm.

The dark energy pushed even harder, threatening to destroy the consciousness whole. 

"Damn it! This is harder than I thought!"

Suddenly, the sea of mana surged forward with unprecedented force, not only repelling the daemonic energy but also purifying it in the process. The once malevolent tendrils now emitted agonized screams as they were cleansed and transformed into pure magical essence.

Aldred, bewildered by this turn of events, watched as the sea of mana reclaimed its serenity, the Essence Pearls pulsating with renewed vigor. The hellish energy had been obliterated, leaving behind a residue of purified magic that merged seamlessly with Aldred\'s own power.

The echoing voice of the system resonated once again, breaking the eerie silence.

[Congratulations, Master. You have successfully repelled and purified a daemonic intrusion. Your inner strength and magical prowess have proven to be formidable.]

Aldred, still trying to make sense of the unexpected confrontation, questioned, "What was that? Why did my magic attack me?"

"The daemonic energy was drawn to the overwhelming power within you. It sought to corrupt and consume your magical essence. However, your sea of mana, fortified by your innate strength, not only resisted but also purged the intruding energy. It seems your magical prowess has reached a level where it can defend itself," the Eye of Clairvoyance spoke.

"So this is what you mean The Veil exist within every sentient minds."

"That is correct. And you can see how dangerous it is, if the masses know about it. I am certain that the human in your world gatekeep this information with all of their power."

"The Veil exists within every sentient mind," the Eye explained. "It\'s a dark force that preys on the vulnerabilities and fears of individuals. Governments in your world go to great lengths to keep this information hidden from the masses. The corrupt energy you just faced is a manifestation of The Veil, attempting to enslave and manipulate those who are not prepared." 

Aldred furrowed his brow, a mixture of frustration and concern clouding his features. "So, the the Imperium are aware of this danger?"

The Eye nodded solemnly. "Yes, they are. The existence of The Veil and its potential influence on the minds of the masses is a closely guarded secret. Revealing this information could lead to chaos, panic, and the unraveling of the very fabric of society. The consequences could be catastrophic."

Aldred pondered the implications of such secrecy. "But by keeping this hidden, they leave people vulnerable to The Veil\'s influence without their knowledge."

"The delicate balance between protecting the masses and preventing widespread panic is a difficult one. Governments believe that ignorance, in this case, is a form of protection. However, it also means that individuals remain defenseless against The Veil unless they possess the means to protect themselves, like you just did."

"What if the people suddenly catch a sight of these energy?"

"Then they will be killed and exterminated. The whole planet will be burn to prevent the widespread of this information," the Eye of Clairvoyance said. "Not just the human races, but other races do this as well. Well, all except the Orks and other races that couldn\'t be affected by the Veil."

"That\'s very interesting." Aldred rubbed his chin as he delved in thought.
