Chapter 124: The Dream State of the Primal Witch is the Primal Dream State
I was with Ji Niang, and we had arrived at the academy cafeteria.
The cafeteria was very conveniently located in the Central Teaching Area, and it was even more convenient since I was riding on Ji Niang's Flying Broom.
"You look very practiced. Did you get your Flying License?"
"Mhm... I got it during the break."
I quickly nodded.
"Have you considered buying a Flying Broom? Having one at the academy is very convenient."
"Mhm... I've thought about it, but my financial situation doesn't really allow it."
I said softly.
"Okay, I'll figure out a way to get you one."
"Huh? This... isn't that too much trouble for you, Teacher?"
My eyes widened in disbelief.
Was Ji Niang really that generous?
But then I thought about how she had just pulled out a Spellbook for to study this morning, and it seed she really wasn't short on money.
"It's not too much trouble. I have a few retired Flying Brooms that are still usable. It's no problem to give one to you. After all, it takes you a lot of ti to get from your dorm to here even if you take the shuttle," Ji Niang shook her head and explained.
"Then... Thank you, Teacher."
This ti, my gratitude to Ji Niang was genuine.
After all, a Flying Broom was very expensive, even a retired used one.
No matter how bad it was, could it be worse than those old-fashioned walking brooms from the Flying License Training Club?
No way, right?
I could even drift on that broom, so I don't even need to ntion the others.
"No need to thank your teacher. Let's go. The cafeteria is ahead. Is there anything you want to eat?"
"Mhm... I'm not picky."
I subtly expressed that I was fine with anything and gave the decision back to Ji Niang.
"Since you're not picky, then let's try that new stall."
Ji Niang raised an eyebrow and didn't decline again, making the decision herself.
"Whatever the Teacher says."
I nodded in agreent, hoping it wouldn't be so kind of 'dark cuisine.'
Since this was a regular cafeteria, there shouldn't be any overly bizarre food.
Speaking of bizarre food, I thought of Senior Tang Yihan's handiwork.
There shouldn't be anyone more outrageous than Senior Tang Yihan, right?
Then she shouldn't be staying in the cafeteria to harm others.
Fortunately, when the dishes were all served, they were all very ordinary, with no overly strange food.
"Little Han Don't be shy with your teacher. Just take your ti and eat."
Ji Niang herself ate unhurriedly, her movents very elegant.
"By the way, how many students in the class group haven't been contacted yet?"
"Huh? Oh, most of them have joined the group, but a small portion are still unreachable and aren't replying to ssages."
I was stunned by Ji Niang's question.
I just realized that after all my busyness, I had forgotten to manage the class group.
Although not many people registered on this last day, there were still so, right?
"I see. That is a problem. The class will also be gathering tomorrow. I don't know if this ssage can be sent to all the students. After all, as a counselor for the new students, I also have to say a few words."
"Um... Teacher, is the academy so lenient with new student enrollnt? Aren't you afraid the students won't know anything?"
I asked tentatively.
"It's mainly hard to manage. Even after school has started, the academy will still have a lot of new students that have just been 'recruited.' These will have to be arranged into classes on the fly."
"But if they've already been 'recruited,' the academy can't just ignore them, right?"
"You can use your permissions to locate the students in your class and bring them back. Otherwise, what do you think a Class President is for?"
Ji Niang said as if it were a matter of course.
"Okay..."
I pressed a hand to my forehead.
It was my job again.
Being a Class President was really tiring.
"Don't be so discouraged. A Class President also gets better resources than others, and a lot of opportunities at the academy are given to the Class President first. For example the matter with the Earth Vein Stagnation you saw before."
Ji Niang comforted .
"Mhm..."
I didn't say anything else.
Compared to the trouble, in the academy, opportunities were what mattered most.
In my understanding, shouldn't the transcendent world be all about competition?
"By the way, let's talk about your Spirit Vision. You said just now that using Spirit Vision is very tiring, right?"
"Yes, if I use Spirit Vision at a deep level, I quickly get overworked, and my brain starts to hurt."
I told her the truth.
There was no need to hide this, or I'd be the one suffering later.
"Teacher, is there a way to alleviate this situation?"
"Generally... It's just about getting enough rest or using so transcendent aromatherapy. Incense works too. The consumption of Spirit Vision should not be underestimated in terms of ntal Power."
"Huh? Isn't incense for ditation?"
"Who said incense is only for ditation? It has so many uses. ditation is just one of its uses. When you get your supplies, I'll bring so aromatherapy for you. It should be helpful."
"Then thank you, Teacher."
"No need to thank ."
"By the way, Teacher, you still haven't said how I can solve the problem of not being able to express the information feedback I receive from Spirit Vision this afternoon."
"Are you very curious?"
Ji Niang looked up, smiling at my slightly stiff way of changing the subject.
"Mhm... very curious."
I nodded.
"When information is transmitted to a life form, the life form generates cognition. If you can bypass the expression level and directly synchronize at the cognitive level, this problem will be solved. Little Han, have you heard of a Dream State device?"
"A Dream State device? No, I've heard of the Dream State, but only the term itself."
I said honestly.
"It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. A Dream State device is a device specially developed to help prospective witches enter the Primal Dream State."
Ji Niang began to explain carefully.
"You should know what dreams are. In the Dream State, it's pretty much like a regular dream you have while sleeping. But the Dream State we're in isn't the one from our usual dreams. It's in the Dream State of the Primal Witch."
"Huh? The Primal... Witch? The Dream State of...?"
I received a lot of new information all at once, but none of it made any sense to .
"The Primal Witch... is?"
I asked in a low, tentative voice.
After all, any being with the prefix "Primal" was a terrifying existence.
Was such a being still alive and well?
How long did witches live?
"Naturally, she is the original source of the witch race and the first Transcendent Witch. If you want to learn about her legend, you can search for it yourself. I don't want to give you a lesson on this common knowledge, because our focus is on the Dream State."
Ji Niang gave a simple introduction and quickly pulled the topic back.
"Okay, then what is the Dream State? Can it make people's cognition levels interconnected?"
"It's possible to make people's consciousnesses interconnected, but it's not worth using that ability in the Dream State. I brought up the Dream State because a lot of information cannot be described or taught through language. To gain that cognition, you need to use the power of the Dream State to instill cognition at a conscious level, similar to how learned knowledge naturally enters your mind. It just depends on how long it takes you to learn it."
"I see so I'm going to enter the Dream State to study this afternoon?"
I asked tentatively.
"Mhm. Otherwise, you won't be able to complete the analysis report. And have the side effects from your deep use of Spirit Vision just now gone away?"
"No..."
"That's right. It's very necessary to take this ti to learn about the cognitive information in Spirit Vision."
In my simple back-and-forth conversation with Ji Niang, the lunch break quickly passed.
Afterward, I followed my teacher back to the laboratory.
This ti, I saw Ji Niang had brought in a huge, oval capsule that was taller than from sowhere.
I only knew that she had pulled it out of her storage equipnt.
"Teacher, is this the Dream State device?"
"Mhm, it's a student-use Dream State Sleep Pod. Generally, this is a last resort to help so students with supplentary ditation. I got this one. You can try it out later."
Ji Niang stepped forward and felt around the huge capsule.
Then, she pressed a switch, and the giant capsule opened.
The space inside was very compact, just enough for one person to lie down.
"Want to give it a try? I'll also go into the Dream State to guide you later."
She pointed at it and asked with a smile.
"Huh? Right now? But, there's only one Dream State Sleep Pod here, right? How will you guide , Teacher?"
"It's fine. I have my own way of entering the Dream State. You don't have to worry about that."
Ji Niang waved her hand, and finally gestured for to get inside.
As soon as I sat in it, I felt a sense of softness, and even had the illusion that I wanted to fall asleep.
"Okay, just like that. Slowly, follow its guidance. I'll close the pod door right away."
As my vision gradually went dark, I knew there was no escaping now but the Dream State.
If it's the Dream State, wouldn't I enter it after ditation?
The subjective space that looked like a series of illusory spaces was everyone's ditation space.
So this machine was going to take into the so-called Dream State of the Primal Witch...
This naturally made feel very scared.
But from Teacher Ji Niang's tone, this Dream State had a very wide range of applications, and I probably wouldn't be noticed by that lofty Primal Witch.
Although my brain still hurt a lot, I couldn't help but lightly use Spirit Vision to observe how I was entering the Primal Witch's Dream State.
And as soon as I activated Spirit Vision, I felt that this capsule-like device was essentially just a core with an extra design.
The real Dream State device was actually the core component, which was right under my butt...
So how could a small thing like that take into the Dream State?
But I soon experienced it.
I just felt that in this instant, I was swallowed by a terrifyingly massive world.
When I blinked again, I was in a space that was entirely white.
"Did I just enter the Primal Dream State?"
I spoke in disbelief, but I could feel that all of this was fake.
This was just a dream scene.
But soon, I felt a sense of disharmony.
Even though everything was a white world, it showed a bizarre dream scene.
And in the next mont, a figure appeared in my sight, but I didn't recognize them.
It was a twisted figure.
"Little Han, are you listening?"
A voice suddenly echoed throughout the entire dream, but as I listened to the echo, I felt sothing was off.
The other party, who had intruded, Ji Niang, had only one voice.
But it contained so much information!
No, on second thought, the words Ji Niang just said weren't normal language.
"Yes, I'm listening, Teacher Ji Niang. Can you hear ?"
I quickly called out, but what I said was normal language.
At this mont, I felt like a person who had fallen into deep water.
This clear awareness of being in a fake dream still gave a sense of emptiness and ungroundedness.
"What should I do now?"
"It seems you're adapting faster than I expected. An ordinary person entering the Dream State for the first ti would be very uncomfortable, and many would need a long ti to adapt."
Compared to those people, the Little Han in Ji Niang's eyes was very normal, without even a hint of discomfort.
As expected, she was a terrifying genius who could directly start the Witch ditation thod without guidance.
After all, she knew the relationship between the Dream State and ditation.
At this mont, Ji Niang saw in the Dream State.
Although objectively, the distance between and Ji Niang in the Dream State might only be face-to-face, the Dream State was the most likely illusory world to get lost in.
Even if the Primal Witch had anchored this part of the dream world and used Dream State devices to give every Transcendent Witch the right to enter the dream world, it was not foolproof.
Not to ntion that the person entering the Dream State now was a prospective witch who had not yet beco a Transcendent Witch.
There was nothing here because this was a shallow layer of the dream world specifically for prospective witches.
After all, prospective witches usually only needed to use Dream State devices to assist in ditation.
And now, only after I had recognized the other person's existence, I could see Ji Niang's presence here.
After seeing her clearly, I recovered a bit from my flustered state.
This might be the sense of security a teacher provides, even though I was still very wary of her.
"Isn't the Dream State a very magical world? This is just the shallow layer of the dream world, but it's enough for our next step."
Ji Niang floated over and stood guard by my side.
Even though she thought I was in good condition, she still had to prevent from doing sothing out of the ordinary that could cause an accident.
"The next step?"
"Yes, have you forgotten why we entered the Dream State?"
Ji Niang chuckled and then began to operate sothing.
Naturally, she needed so "plugins" to assist in using any functions in the Dream State.
Praise the Primal Witch, for she designed this part of the dream to be so user-friendly.
"It's to learn about the unknown information feedback I see with Spirit Vision."
"That's about right. So let's begin. Try using Spirit Vision to look at this."
Ji Niang nodded, and then a crimson Spellbook appeared in her hand.
"Huh?"
My eyes widened.
I didn't expect a Spellbook to exist in the Dream State?
And could I still use Spirit Vision?
I subconsciously looked at Ji Niang, seemingly waiting for an explanation.
"This is the Dream State. You can naturally obtain a dream model of a Spellbook through operation. This is normal. Of course, Spirit Vision can also be used in the Dream State. Don't underestimate this blessing given by the world."
"A blessing given by the world..."
I chewed on the aning of that phrase, but I still did as she said.
But the side effects from using Spirit Vision this morning hadn't completely disappeared, so I could only use it to observe lightly.
But at this mont, I suddenly discovered sothing unusual.
The information feedback I received from my Spirit Vision entered my mind, and I actually started to understand it.
It was an incredible feeling of sudden enlightennt, as if knowledge had appeared in my mind out of thin air for no reason.
And Ji Niang, who was beside , was very satisfied when she saw my wide eyes.
"How is it? Do you feel like you can understand it now?"
"Mhm... I understand it... but... this unfamiliar cognition..."
"You need to adapt, learn, and rember this unfamiliar cognition yourself. This is a long process. The Dream State provides you with a platform for learning because it's a level you might not be able to reach in your entire life."
At this point, Ji Niang rarely showed a bitter smile.
"Sotis, becoming a Transcendent Witch can be quite despairing. I have a lifespan that is close to eternal, but the path I've walked is only the footsteps left by past witches. The one who forges the truth at the very front is always that great Primal Witch and the Truth Witches who dedicated themselves to the witch world."
"Heh... why am I complaining to you about this? My apologies, forget about this. This is too far away for you. If you delve too deep, you might fall into terrifying nihilism, which is the hell of transcendent long-lived species."
