Chapter 627 Dual Possibilities of Soul Mimicry
“So... Fool's Blue, Fool's Luck, Fool's Fruit, are you willing to cooperate with for more attempts?”
I looked at the three Fool's Dream girls and asked expectantly.
“Mhm! Okay!”
“Of course, we are willing!”
“I'm fine with it.”
“Then let's begin!”
Although this was the expected answer, I still instinctively wanted not to let down their enthusiasm for their unconditional trust.
As for how I wanted them to cooperate with , this returned to the problem of the breakthrough point.
Although using the Soul Dream State to carry the Dream State consciousness of Fool's Dream was one way, it was not success.
Instead, it was more like a unilateral compromise on my part.
The Fool's Dream girls had not undergone any formal change.
The appearance of the Soul Dream State was more of a trick for the current , but it was also a part of my power, a breakthrough point.
I needed to continuously experint within the Soul Dream State to determine what kind of environnt caused the shattering of the Fool's Dream's consciousness.
The Soul Dream State unified my Sea of Consciousness and Sea of the Dream State.
The Sea of the Dream State could not carry the Fool's Dream consciousness, but the Soul Dream State could.
In that case... I could do one thing, which was to gradually convert the Soul Dream State towards the Sea of the Dream State, and then carefully observe the changes within, allowing the Fool's Dream's consciousness to engage in resistance against it.
And the ans of resistance was the "Soul Mimicry" technique, which had not yet been fully derived from the Great Wisdom Enlightennt Spell.
Since I couldn't achieve perfection in a short ti, I would proceed increntally, little by little.
The reason I called the Soul Dream State a breakthrough point was precisely this: it gave a pathway to continuously delve deeper step by step.
And all of this was to perfect the Soul Mimicry technique.
As for the purpose of perfecting it?
The use didn't seem very significant, but it allowed the Dream State creature essence of Fool's Dream to take a solid first step towards the essence of a real-life creature!
Initially, I had thought of letting the Fool's Dream consciousness complete its consciousness descent through the Enlightennt ditation thod, then slowly, little by little, try to enter my Sea of the Dream State, and then use the unification of the Sea of the Dream State and the Sea of Consciousness as a bond to descend into the Sea of Consciousness.
The Sea of Consciousness was a concept born with reality as a bond.
Therefore, by finding a different kind of anchor in reality for Fool's Dream, it would have a chance to beco a creature acknowledged by reality.
However, all those complicated initial ideas had now been simplified to the current two processes: the Soul Dream State and... Soul Mimicry.
The utilization of Soul Mimicry was a completely new understanding of the Great Wisdom Enlightennt Spell for .
The only unfortunate thing was that this did not seem to be a Sequence Derivation of this Grand Spellbook; it was rely a derivation I incorporated under the system of the Great Wisdom Enlightennt Spell, using my knowledge of the soul.
This was a perplexing point for .
If the [Transcendent Knowledge] of the Great Wisdom Enlightennt Spell originated from Fool's Dream, and Fool's Dream was a natural revelation of the Great Wisdom Enlightennt Spell, then how could the Spell ability to enable Fool's Dream's "life tamorphosis" not be a Sequence Derivation?
Of course, all of this might just be taking things too much for granted.
Since I was already firmly committed to doing it, I naturally had to witness failure firsthand to know where exactly I went wrong.
Moreover... what if it succeeded?
Besides, I wasn't aiming for instant success.
As long as this derivation could be realized, it had its inherent value.
I tried this for a whole day, and Fool's Dream cooperated strenuously.
After all, the collapse of consciousness was also a huge burden for Fool's Dream.
They even called over other Fool's Dream girls to help.
After all, Fool's Dream was a collective group.
They were the best of friends, and even the Fool's Dream girls who hadn't co to participate in my experint would be curious about what they were doing.
And my experint frequency was very fast; after just one day, I had to suspend the experint.
Because Fool's Dream was reaching its limit of endurance.
Even though they said they could continue, I stopped.
I also explained to them that I had made a breakthrough and needed to think about it alone.
Whether they believed or not, it was a valid reason to refuse them, as they needed rest.
I lay on my seat like this, my mind filled with the mories of the previous experint.
After a whole day of experinting, continuous testing, and various research thods, I couldn't say there was no progress on the derivation of Soul Mimicry; I should say the progress was substantial!
At the beginning of the experint, I hadn't imagined that I could push the not-yet-perfected Soul Mimicry technique to such a height!
But the higher I climbed, the more I could recognize one fact...
That was how significant the gap between myself and the goal truly was.
If I were to quantify my current progress, it was a continuous stacking of experience.
Every attempt felt like "Experience 1000" appearing above my head.
But the goal I was pursuing was not a specific number, but a qualitative change!
Although quantitative change can lead to qualitative change, I didn't know how long this quantitative change would need to last—perhaps ten days, perhaps a year, or even several years.
I didn't doubt whether Fool's Dream would be willing to experint with for that long.
However... there must be a shortcut to help achieve the simplest leap.
My continuous accumulation did not guarantee success, but it increased the probability of success, and this ti could extend to... a very distant future.
Since I could potentially succeed at any node, differing only in probability, a shortcut must exist.
The more I wanted to move forward quickly, the more difficult the shortcut I needed to find would be.
But rather than calling this thod a "shortcut," I preferred to call it a "Revelation."
So now, thinking back carefully, what else could serve as a Revelation for the Soul Mimicry technique?
I sat silently in my seat.
At this mont, another figure sat silently opposite .
It was as if we were waiting to see who would lose their composure first, who would speak first.
Imdiately, the atmosphere beca heavy, and even my breathing beca shallow.
This atmosphere lasted for a long ti, until...
“I surrender.”
At this mont, the Shadow of Knowledge suddenly seed unable to maintain its composure and spoke first.
“Is that so?”
“Hmph You've already figured it out. I naturally have no sense of accomplishnt in reminding you.”
After the Shadow of Knowledge finished speaking, it disappeared directly.
And everything was exactly as the Shadow of Knowledge said: I had figured it out.
In fact, the Shadow of Knowledge knew from the beginning.
I guessed it from... the mont she looked like she was enjoying the show.
She was waiting for to take the initiative to ask.
And I chose to conquer my own subconsciousness, to overco the barrier of subjective cognition, and to realize what it was.
And the final outco was obvious: I succeeded.
The answer was... myself.
What was Soul Mimicry for?
It was to allow the Dream State creature to transcend its essence, to mimic the state of a soul, and to simulate the posture of a living creature's essence.
But... from beginning to end, I overlooked one thing: my own essence of life was the soul.
To achieve Soul Mimicry, I myself was the best target.
Reverse thinking.
Now, I had built a foundation from nothing from one direction, and now I stood at the end point, deducing backward from existence to non-existence.
The process in the middle was the perfection of this technique.
When I realized this, I understood one thing: the Soul Mimicry technique was not the endpoint; it was just a goal I had set for myself, a limit I had imposed on myself.
Soul Mimicry was ultimately just a "compromise" for an action I could not perform directly.
I couldn't make Fool's Dream transform into a soul, so I settled for making their form of existence mimic a soul.
But at this mont, I also realized that I myself was already standing at the destination of the goal.
So, at the mont of realization, I perfected the other half of its concept.
The process from the empty Dream State to Soul Mimicry, and then from the mimicked soul to a true soul creature, the latter part of the process, I nad "Soul Depiction."
Therefore, Soul Mimicry was only a "starting stage."
What I temporarily nad "Soul Depiction" was the true process to complete the life interpretation for Fool's Dream.
However, the current had not even finished establishing the foundation, so I couldn't clearly define what Soul Depiction looked like.
But having a na ant having a goal, and having a goal, I only needed to strive to achieve it, and that was enough.
“Amazing... is this a Revelation? When the Revelation removed the veil of the unknown for , what felt almost impossible to monts ago now feels like a minor hurdle...”
I shook my head slightly, lanting the unpredictability of the world.
But did the difficulty of perfecting the Soul Mimicry technique decrease?
No, only my cognition had been elevated, so what was difficult monts ago now seed simple.
This was a person's true cognitive leap.
Thinking of this, I didn't hesitate to use the still-incomplete Soul Mimicry technique on myself.
Don't forget, I was also soone who had used the Great Wisdom Enlightennt Spell.
When I used it that ti, it was also during a special period, and the Great Wisdom Enlightennt Spell made a significant contribution to my self-awakening of Body Cultivation.
It was that ti that introduced to the world of Body Cultivation, and it was that ti that made understand the importance of the body's structure, the essence of life, and perception.
And this ti, I was going to delve deeper into dissecting the essence of life, the soul, using my own soul as a template to provide guidance for the Soul Mimicry technique.
At the sa ti.
Following Millian's return.
She returned to Ninglan New City with a host of news.
This intelligence imdiately detonated the student community that received it!
The Dream State Overlap phenonon at the newly discovered Seed Bank Transcendent material resource mine had actually disappeared!
This intelligence undoubtedly brought great news to everyone, and the Wan Shi Wu Club imdiately announced its joint effort with Teaching Assistant Yang Yuehan to build the second large Shelter.
Millian also brought another piece of news that was neither good nor bad: the Dispel of the Dream State Overlap phenonon ca from Teaching Assistant Xiaohan's hand, and Teaching Assistant Xiaohan was willing to teach this technique.
The crowd, upon hearing this, initially felt everything was too unreal, followed by a burst of ecstatic joy.
Then, upon hearing the learning requirents, everyone was stunned.
Because the first learning requirent was to have a Domain, and just this first condition left them dumbfounded.
They didn't even know what a Domain was.
So guessed it might be an extrely rare Domain-type Spellbook in the academy, and they even dug up old intelligence stating that Yang Yuehan possessed a Super Consumption Spellbook called "Fire Rain Domain."
Coupled with the fact that many Teaching Assistants in Ninglan New City had also left, it was no wonder they thought this way without understanding the situation.
After all, those Teaching Assistants had to personally experience it before asking their own ntors.
Domain... and Domain-type Spellbook are completely different concepts!
But many people didn't understand the difference.
However, they knew to ask.
Wasn't there a Transcendent ntor in Ninglan New City?
So, those students who thought they had a good relationship with ntor Elena spontaneously went to ask.
“Don't even think about it. Domain is not the Domain-type Spellbook you think it is. The two have no comparability. Xiaohan having Millian bring back this ssage is telling you to completely give up hope. In the Witch Academy, including all students and Teaching Assistants, only Xiaohan has a Domain.”
Elena's words were ruthless, directly shattering their last sliver of hope and completely exposing their self-deception.
Among the entire non-ntor group, only Xiaohan had one!
What kind of concept was that?
It was an acknowledgnt from a ntor, alright.
But amidst the shock, it also indicated one thing: with the ntors not taking action, the only person who could solve the Dream State Overlap phenonon was Teaching Assistant Xiaohan!
What should have been a good thing, moving from no solution to a solution.
But now, after experiencing the "we can learn it" scenario, everyone's expectations had been completely dashed.
They couldn't even be happy and now had to rely on soone else.
It was truly an unbearable situation.
Moreover, Ninglan New City would also be enveloped by the Dream State soon; this was a problem that absolutely had to be solved.
So, soon, many people began to mobilize.
However... most people won't wake up early without a profit.
Since the Dream State Overlap problem could be solved, didn't that an the many resource points currently enveloped by the Dream State, whose mining progress was extrely slow, could also be solved?
No one says no to resources and profit.
It was rely asking soone for help, and they had experienced plenty of that.
...
Ti passed quickly.
My self-research on Soul Mimicry lasted longer than the ti I spent researching with Fool's Dream.
As for the matters of the outside Shelter, I completely ignored them.
After all, by handing over the communication with Millian to those players, I had also handed over the lifeline of the Shelter to them.
My existence was more like a pillar, a pillar of strength.
“So this is Soul Mimicry... what a fascinating experience.”
I looked at myself lying on the seat.
At this mont, my soul consciousness was detached from my body, and my soul had undergone "degeneration" under the Soul Mimicry technique, becoming a state close to the soul of a Dream State creature.
I suddenly discovered that, following this line of thought, the Soul Mimicry technique did not seem to be a starting point, but a "dual-directional transit point"!
It helped the Dream State creature mimic a soul from nothing, and then complete a thorough soul tamorphosis through my conceptualized "Soul Depiction."
And I, however, could use Soul Mimicry as a transit point to reach the other extre... to beco a Dream State creature...
No, I shouldn't say that.
This was a Spell, so this should be... the Dream State Creature Transformation Spell!
But... a Dream State creature was not a life form, so it couldn't be a Transformation Spell; it should be a... Shapeshifting Spell, a Spell that transford one into the form of a Dream State creature!
But this idea was too wild.
After a brief pause, my soul returned to my body, my consciousness controlled my body, and I slowly opened my eyes.
“Soul Mimicry... should be considered a success...”
My gaze went to the large Dream State creature still scurrying around in my room, but ultimately, I did not choose it.
“Such a monuntal attempt should be reserved for Fool's Dream.”
