Chapter 202 - 0202: Dream Spirit World (Three additional requests for subscription)
“What is this?”
The unrest within the city escalated and seemed to plunge into an even more terrifying situation.
Su Lu rose to his feet, approached the window, and opened a small gap. He saw a vast sea looming in mid-air.
“The Mental Realm… has it been eroded to the second level this quickly?”
Su Lu sat back down, pressing and kneading his forehead, his expression grave.
If Nia City was eroded to the extent of the third-level Spirit World, even his spirit would not be able to travel freely.
“But there’s still a last resort…”
He stared at the card in his hand that sealed the Evil Spirit Knight.
As a Cursed Spirit and a high-ranked Spiritual Body, the knight undoubtedly possessed the ability to traverse the Spirit World.
If he just underwent ‘Evil Spirit’s Possession’ one more time, he could try physically traveling the Spirit World!
“But… the price is also horrendous, not to mention the burning of the soul… I currently can’t fully control the power of the Evil Spirit Knight. Every use involves great risk and I might be overtaken by its consciousness, allowing it to reincarnate using my body…”
“Moreover… external power ultimately is external, difficult to control precisely… even if I could traverse the Spirit World, it would be difficult to position it accurately with my Soul Trance LV4…”
The ability to traverse the Spirit World inevitably requires utilizing the power of the third-level Spirit World and above.
However, at this moment, Su Lu’s strength had not yet reached such a level.
This means that even if he could escape Nia City, the price might be being lost in the depths of the Spirit World.
In that case, his fate might be even worse than struggling within Nia City.
That’s why he wanted to see first what kind of plan the officials had. Now that everything has gone awry, he could only rely on himself.
“I must increase my Soul Trance level, and at least touch the third-level Spirit World… LV5 might not even be enough…as for the Experience Points, I can only supplement them from the ‘Unnamed Necronomicon’. It can be very useful for enhancing abilities relevant to the Spirit World, although its side effects are also significant…”
Su Lu looked at the two Blood Vials placed next to him.
These were what he had previously acquired from Blood Therapist Angie. They were allegedly very effective remedies for mental abnormalities.
But the possible ‘God’s Blood’ inside, made him reluctant to use it.
“At critical moments, they can only be used as therapeutic methods… Even if this attempt fails, the Ancient God’s Blood may be the last way out.”
Su Lu gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and focused on his attribute panel:
[Consume 1200 experience points… Soul Trance level increased to LV5!]
[Soul Trance LV5: Increase in Spirit Affinity, Increase in Spirit World Sensitivity, Spirit +0.8!]
The experience points consumed quickly, and the ability of Soul Trance increased rapidly.
“Ugh…”
Su Lu groaned, grabbing his forehead.
His inspiration was once again enhanced, and his perception of the Spirit World became even more in-depth.
He even faintly sensed a space that was above the Mental Realm.
No!
It can no longer be described as ‘a space’.
It was an omnipresent, pervading, bizarre world.
In that world, many rules of the real world had either failed or distorted, full of incredible things, along with various mysterious symbols and representations.
Its name is––the ‘Dream Spirit World’!
The ‘Dream’ here does not mean it is a world composed of various dreams, but emphasizes the distortion of the rules, where time and space become meaningless, similar to the absurdity of dreams, where anything can happen!
Of course, since anything can happen, it is possible to connect to dreams, but this is not everything, only a tiny part of it!
Although Su Lu could sense this Spirit World layer at this moment, his spirit trying to break through was nearly impossible.
“Even I feel this way… No wonder the research on the Spirit World in this world is still backward, mostly concentrated on the first level… Even the [Mysterious Master], I’m afraid, can’t touch the secrets of the Dream Spirit World, huh?”
Su Lu sighed and took a look at the insufficient experience points, and then opened the “Unnamed Necronomicon”.
Soon, he saw that page that was full of chaotic, abstract art with various colors and lines.
“Praise you, the spirit of all spirits, your domain is infinitely vast…”
“I’ve gone across the sea of the mind, coming to the third level of the spirit…”
“I saw… the distortion of rules…”
“That vast, absurd, everything, are your masterpieces…”
This time, he was prepared and highly concentrated, or perhaps his Soul Trance level had increased, which allowed him to continue reading.
“Countless dreams… just stones picked up randomly on the roadside…”
“The land is vastly broad, located above the ocean… capable of holding the power of the divine…”
[Ding! Fifth-order profession information detected – Soul Reaper, analyzing…]
The prompt on the attribute panel appeared at some point.
Immersed in the book, Su Lu caught glimpses of his inspiration value and immediately stopped reading.
“Phew… Luckily, it hasn’t reached the limit… There is no need for treatment.”
He breathed a sigh of relief, closed the “Unnamed Necronomicon”, and checked the other data. Soon, he discovered two interesting notifications:
[You’ve read the “Unnamed Necronomicon”, Spirit +1.5!]
[XP +1500]
…
“Directly increasing the spirit? There wasn’t any increase before… It seems that although this book is dangerous, it also brings great benefits…”
Su Lu looked at the prompt and the surge in experience points, swirling with thoughts: “There was no direct increase in the spirit data before, and the experience points increased less. Could it be because I didn’t see a critical point?”
This point should be the appearance of the fifth-order Legendary profession!
He glanced at the thickness of the book and found that he had already read more than half of it.
“The remaining content is the real treasure… but it’s a pity… it’s not something I can unearth right now,” Su Lu sighed, then firmly said: “Increase the level of Soul Trance!”
[Consume 2400 experience points… Soul Trance level increased to LV6!]
[Soul Trance LV6: Detect the third layer of the Spirit World, Spirit +1!]
Crash!
Su Lu’s body trembled.
When he opened his eyes again, he was astonished to find himself in a bizarre world.
The land was semi-transparent, and he could vaguely see the vast sea below. It seemed that he was walking in the sky.
Higher up, a pink pig was flying freely.
“Unconsciously… I am in Soul Trance, and I have come to… the Dream Spirit World?”
Su Lu muttered to himself, sensing his physical body, which could return at any time, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief.
He carefully observed his surroundings, communicating with various kinds of information through his Spiritual Body, and immediately gained a lot of knowledge:
“Here, most of the rules of reality become invalid or distorted, becoming bizarre, like dreams, but also exist in reality… Meanwhile, touching the third layer of the Spirit World is the prerequisite for Spirit World Traversal!”
Only in the Dream Spirit World, would the distance rule become invalid, a single step he takes, might cross thousands of kilometers in the real world!
The so-called ‘Spirit World Traversal’ takes advantage of this property!
