Endless Journey: Infinite Realms

Chapter 558 Nascent Soul Breathing Technique

[[[END OF DREAM SCENE 1]]]

"..."

This ’Dream Scene’ involving Person 1 and Person 2 did not happen in reality, nor did it happen on Alex’s past.

Instead, this ’Dream Scene’ has just happened inside Alex’s head, who at this time, can only watch the scene in a state of confusion.

"What the hell is this? Did I just witness two people that I do not know, have a conversation with each other? How the f**k did this happen?"

Due to the pain and sudden shock brought to him by the foreign memories, Alex could barely understand what he was seeing inside his mind now. Add the fact that he just fainted, and it can be considered a miracle that he is still able to think!

But even if he’s extremely muddle-headed, Alex still has a faint inkling about what was happening to him.

"Earlier, I suddenly felt a head-splitting pain as foreign memories began to invade my mind. I do not know where they came from, but they seem to be targeting me specifically." Alex thought solemnly as he felt that his awareness was slowly making a return. "Because of the volume of those memories, I fainted, as my mind was unable to process them all quickly."

With this slow return of his awareness, Alex was able to speed up his thinking, something that is beneficial to him now.

"After I lost my consciousness, my mind did not stop on processing the foreign memories. My mind has continued to work, and it only stopped when all the memories have been processed..." Alex sniffled as his mental faculties went back to 50% functionality.."It was only after all the foreign memories have been processed that I regained my consciousness, although it is still extremely wakened."

At this point, even the throbbing pain inside Alex’s head has began to subside, along with the light-headed feeling inside his mind.

This further helped Alex to deduce his current situation.

"Now that my mind has processed all those memories, what it did next was obvious. It began to play some of these memories inside my head, which is the reason for my dreams right now!" Alex thought, with half of his mind focused on stopping himself from getting angry. "Tsk, I already have a busy day, and this still has to happen to me? Ugh, why did this have to occur!"

Alex seemed to be pissed with what had just happened to him, something that is sensible for him. After all, who in their right mind would be happy when someone starts randomly injecting memories inside their head? Alex obviously won’t.

In fact, if Alex can just move right now, he would be most likely using all of his powers just to find the one who made him like this. He will surely beat that person up, and make him/her explain why he/she have to do this.

But with his body still paralyzed and his mind stuck on showing the ’dreams’, the lucid Alex cannot do anything else but watch these dreams with a sulk.

"Hmph, I don’t really understand why these memories has invaded my head, but I am not happy with them making me like this! These memories surely must have something sinister hidden within them...." Alex thought sourly. "As I am still paralyzed and weak, I might be forced to watch at least 2 more ’Dream Scenes’ from these memories..."

If Alex could just click his teeth from frustration, then he could have done it countless times already. But because he’s paralyzed, he can only vent his frustrations inside his mind.

"Tsk, it’s a good thing that the first ’Dream Scene’ was just normal. It was just about Person 2 accepting Person 1 as his disciple. Person 2 then talked something about Essence Cores? Is that the right term? Well, whatever. The first ’Dream Scene is still bearable. But what about the next ’Dream Scene’? Will it still be easy? Or will it change something in me?"

Alex felt a sudden cold inside him, as he realized that he is about to face a trial that might very well change him fundamentally.

"Sigh, so I have a set of foreign memories inside my head, which I am being forced to watch in the form of ’Dream Scenes, which will have a sure effect on me..." Alex thought solemnly, with his mind clearly having a small-scale panic right now. It was hard for him to feel calm, as he knew that the next few minutes of his life could be extremely difficult.

"Tsk, if the contents these other Dream Scenes are like Dream Scene 1, then it will be good. But If their contents are malicious or are intended to damage minds, then I will be in a bad situation!"

As he reached this realization, Alex began to do all the things that he can do just to stop his mind from showing more of the foreign memories. After all, Alex cannot just expect that the other Dream Scenes will be beneficial. At most, these memories could bring him into ruin.

"Wake up, b***h-ass Alex! Wake up!" But no matter what Alex did, his weakened mind stubbornly kept him down. Even when Alex tried to injure his Virtual Body, his mind still did not loosen up.

[LOADING: DREAM SCENE 2]

"Ah f**k. Alex, I said wake up!" As this hollow-sounding voice resonated inside him, Alex doubled his efforts to rouse himself. "If you don’t wake up, the Arcane Sorceress or the Immortal Empress could kidnap your body! You don’t want that from happening, right?"

But just like his futile efforts from earlier, Alex was still unable to wake himself up, leaving him under the mercy of the invading memories.

"Ah!" Alex could only hiss as his mind began to roil, with the familiar feeling of nausea assaulting his brain again. His head then resumed its painful throbbing, leaving Alex screeching madly.

[DREAM SCENE 2 LOADING COMPLETE. INITIATING PLAYTHROUGH]

"Af f**k!!!" With that announcement, the furious Alex found his mind plunged back into darkness once more.

****************

"Hmm...this part with my Cores will be the hardest one." Person 4 muttered as she adjusted the temperature of her Pure Yin Cosmic Ice ever so slowly.

In order to let it reach its optimum potential, Person 4 decided to just use the temperature of around -10 Degrees Celsius to cool her Cores.

If she used a temperature much lower than this, her Cores might freeze much faster before the Cores’ internal components can arrange themselves.

But to Person 4’s disappointment, she found that even with the temperature she used, none of her molten Cores showed any signs of freezing.

"This just means that I need lower temperatures to freeze my molten Cores." Person 4 thought as she cupped her chin. "Not only that, but I guess that just like with the flames earlier, the freezing point of my Cores will also differ too."

With that conjecture, Person 4 decided to decrease the temperature of her Pure Yin Cosmic Ice, with her decreasing the temperature by 1 Degree Celsius per second.

No matter what happens, Person 4 will only decrease the temperature at this rate, as this is the way for the Cores to freeze slowly.

"...."

Because of the slow decrease in temperature, it took Person 4 much longer time to affect all the Cores with her Pure Yin Cosmic Ice.

"This is bad..."

Two hours have already passed by, and the only Cores affected by her Pure Yin Cosmic Ice were the two smallest Cores and the 7 similarly-sized Cores.

As for the remaining 4 Cores, Person 4 could still see no signs or indications of their freezing point.

"Ugh, if this goes on, then my spiritual power will run out before I am able to freeze them all!" Person 4 muttered as she felt her consciousness starting to fade away.

Two hours of precisely controlling her Pure Yin Cosmic Ice consumed Person 4’s spiritual strength so quick that at this point, there’s only 5% Spiritual Power left inside her.

"If I do not do anything now, all my hard work will be wasted!" Person 4’s eyes then gleamed knowing that right now, she had no choice but to go for broke.

Since she has limited spiritual power, then all she needed to do was to just replenish this!

But how can Person 4 do this at her situation right now?

Consuming a pill or herbs that can recover her spiritual power is impossible, as Person 4 should not ingest any pills or herbs to recover her Spiritual Power during the Smelting process.

Introduction of foreign spiritual power will produce a disturbance inside Person 4’s body, and it will severely impede Person 4’s Smelting process!

This means that Person 4 has to produce more spiritual power naturally from her body in order to avoid the disturbance.

But how can Person 4 achieve this?

All of her Cores cannot be used now as they were all being Smelted, so Person 4 has to find a different way to produce Spiritual Power naturally.

Luckily for Person 4, there was something that her second master, Person 2, left to her.

After Person 4 succeeded on creating her Essence Cores while she was at the Second Stage, Person 2 decided to give Person 4 some things that will be useful to her.

At that time, Person 2 knew that he will be going into a slumber, so he decided to give Person 4 some of the things that can be of use to her while he was asleep.

One of the things that Person 2 gave to Person 4 was a Technique related to Spiritual Power!

When Person 4 received this technique, she scoffed a little, as she saw that only when she reached the Third Stage that she can use this technique.

Person 4 was at Second Stage at that time, so she decided to just keep this technique at the back of her mind.

But now that Person 4 has reached the Third Stage and that she was also in dire need of more Spiritual Power, Person 4 decided to use the technique given to her by Person 2!

Even if it will be dangerous, Person 4 decided to proceed on using this technique, as using this technique will be the only way for Person 4 to obtain more Spiritual Power!

"Remember my disciple, once you decided to use this technique, there is no going back for you." Person 4 remembered Person 2 saying these words as he gave Person 4 the mentioned technique.

"Either you complete this technique and live, or you fail and die."

This grim reminder was something that Person 4 can still remember up until now.

Person 4 used whatever consciousness she had left to scour her mind.

After 10 seconds of frantic searching, she found what she was searching for.

It was a manual that was imprinted by Person 2 inside Person 4’s mind.

It looked like a brown book, with golden letters adorning its cover.

These golden letters formed a set of words which read,

"Nascent Soul Breathing Technique."

Person 4 took a shaky breath as she saw this title.

Before, she was not interested in this technique, so she did not bother reading it.

But now that she needed to use it, she decided to read its contents now.

"...."

After using her divine sense to read its contents, Person 4 realized something.

"This technique... this is just the sequel to the Essence Core Creation Technique!"
