Chapter 65: How Can Improving Mental Power Not Be Meditation!
It seems that there is a soundproofing solidifying spell in the meditation room. After using Spirit Vision, I can clearly feel that the “sounds” are separated by a barrier.
Is there also a voyeurism protection spell?
However, I don’t understand why my Spirit Vision can pierce through the voyeurism protection spell to see these images. Has my Spirit Vision already reached a level that ignores the existence of such spells?
I walked back to the center of the meditation room, finally sitting down again. After much thought, I decided to give it another try.
I am unwilling to give up, and there’s still plenty of time. I paid for this!
Even if I end up sleeping and dreaming here, I must make use of the time—it’s just a day’s salary, money spent is spent, but I cannot let it go to waste.
As I meditate again, although I haven’t activated my Spirit Vision, it feels as if I’ve opened Pandora’s box, and “dream” seems to have entangled me.
After I relaxed my body and mind and emptied my brain, recalling the meditation described in the books, I proceeded step by step, ultimately entering a dream state without even realizing it sometimes.
This is too strange.
At this moment, I am sitting cross-legged in the dream, pondering my strategies. I can’t just be trapped here forever, can I?
Is this where my extraordinary path comes to an end?
I certainly refuse to accept that.
And I am extremely unwilling!
Why can all the seniors here meditate while I’m just dreaming?
Besides, except for that first time when I saw the seniors, I haven’t seen them again after realizing I was in a dream.
It’s as if another consciousness cannot appear in my dream.
“Can I meditate in the meditation space, the mental space, or the dream space…?”
At this point, I could hardly pay attention to what I was saying. When I finally realized it, I suddenly reacted as if I had said something profound.
If I can also improve my mental power and refine the mental power strands in the dream space, what’s the difference from meditation?
There’s no difference, right?
Perhaps I was wrong from the very beginning; in this state, I shouldn’t be thinking about continuing to meditate but rather trying to enhance my mental power!
I calmed my excited emotions and began to recall the contents of the books I had read.
It mentioned how to refine mental power strands and how to enhance mental power as a byproduct.
First, one needs to enter a meditation state, then sense the substantial existence of mental power, capture one’s mental power, and only then can one proceed to refine it.
By the way, can one really capture one’s mental power in this state?
I can’t feel it at all…
Looking around in confusion, the scene became illusory due to my lack of focus, and finding this concept of mental power seems too abstract, right?
How do I even know what mental power looks like? In this state, I can’t even discover its existence, can I?
After all… this is a dream.
I continued to hug my arms and thought about possible solutions. Eventually, I decided to use Spirit Vision.
Although in the dream, Spirit Vision seems meaningless for everything here, even the information gradually faded.
But that doesn’t mean there’s no information.
If Spirit Vision sees information, it means the existence of the dream is a “meaningful” proof in the Inner World, meaning that dreams exist in reality, just in an abstract way I don’t understand, and I coincidentally felt the existence of dreams in a way I didn’t fully comprehend.
When I peeled away the information blocked by my subconscious, I found that there was far too much information hidden in my dream, and I ultimately discovered the “mental power” information that I wanted the most.
It was so abstract among many pieces of information but also the most prominent.
Because everything I can recognize here is constructed from mental power!
“This is mental power?”
My fingers pressed against the wall, my tone shifting from skepticism to determination.
At this moment, the solid wall seemed to be clamped between my two fingers, almost like I was peeling it away layer by layer.
This was the first time I had so directly sensed the existence of mental power, and in my excitement, memories of how to refine mental power from the book flooded back to me.
“Use it for me!”
I shouted loudly in the dream like a character from a fantasy story, as if that phrase focused all my energy and shattered the false illusion created by mental power.
At that moment, my vision twisted, and everything in front of me seemed deformed as if I had dragged and pulled it.
With the aid of Spirit Vision, I could more intuitively sense the changes in mental power.
It seemed like the transformation of my self-awareness forged the final outcome of the refinement.
I appeared to be back in that void dream again.
However, there were still numerous disordered images reflecting familiar scenes like a shattered mirror.
At this moment, it seemed that something extra appeared in my hand.
It looked like a thin thread. I pinched it with my fingers and pulled it straight into view.
Even though I wanted to see it clearly, I couldn’t quite grasp its essence as if it made me nearsighted.
Illusory yet solid.
Two opposing traits appeared in the same entity.
Is this what the book describes as a standard mental power strand?
Looking at the scattered shattered images around me, it felt like I was struggling to piece together a complete picture. So, could it be that these “mental powers” that I cannot control are actually more than just a standard unit of mental power?
So my current mental power can only barely condense a thin strand of mental power?
If I lack enough mental power, could refining the mental power strands fail?
That’s truly a relief.
I released my grip on the mental power strand. At this point, the strand had become a different form than the mental power influenced by my subconscious.
This strand of mental power was already under my conscious control, and I could even make it construct a detailed dream environment according to my thoughts.
As for how to enhance mental power… that’s a very good question.
Although the Witch Meditation Method has corresponding content, the description isn’t very clear. After all, improving the upper limit of mental power is an effect even attached to the Witch Meditation Method, and it mentioned that the method of enhancement may differ for individuals.
But I clearly understand that mental power won’t come from nothing; there must be some method to enhance it.
Mental power is my own attribute, which implies that training one’s will, honing it, and other means can all enhance mental power.
Thus, continuously practicing here, repetitively exercising, and consuming energy to strengthen and augment mental power is indeed a feasible way to enhance it.
But wouldn’t that method be too tedious?
I controlled the mental power strand to create a beautiful scenery for myself, which is quite an energy-consuming task. Although the enhancement of mental power isn’t obvious, it is visibly obtainable.
It seems that I need to accumulate effort over time to see results.
I gradually detached myself from the dream. After all, I proved that I could do what meditation in a dream does, so I didn’t need to continue, as just trying to enhance my mental power had already exhausted my energy significantly.
The drowsiness was nearly overwhelming my consciousness.
At this moment, the fragrance of incense wafted over. What previously felt like just a pleasant scent now transformed into a soothing remedy for my spirit!
So this is the effect of incense… it really helps with meditation.
Upon reflection, this subtle fragrance seems to have been accompanying me all along; I just didn’t realize it in the dream.
After recalling this, I realized that the incense was truly worth the money.
After all, this is the scent after a full day of work.
But that’s not the main point now.
It seems that the incense has burned out. My hand rested on the incense burner, and there seemed to be only a trace of warmth left.
