Chapter 842: Aina’s Setback…
“Yes… the facts are right before our eyes…” Aina was also momentarily stunned, then calmed down; she couldn’t lose her composure in front of a little witch.
“Then… can you tell me how you did it?” Aina asked with great hope.
To open the Holy Realm in a dream!
She hadn’t even dared to imagine such a thing before!
Moreover, she had never even heard of such a thing, and if one could open the Holy Realm in the Primordial Dream World, shaping the Order of the Field, why would witches still be so far from deep exploration of the Primordial Dream World?
One must know that the current achievements in the exploration of the Primordial Dream World were all products of great strength, like… the Primordial Dream World refined by the great power of the Primordial Witch.
Without some background knowledge, one couldn’t even navigate the Primordial Dream World. It was only during the rise of the Soul Great Topic that there was a major development concerning the Primordial Dream World.
So even though she knew this might be an extremely confidential matter for Xiao Han, she still mustered the courage to ask, and besides, she was prepared for rejection.
In her view, if even a little witch like Xiao Han could do it, then she, being an Extraordinary Witch, ought to be able to achieve it as well.
“How I did it…”
Although I anticipated that this witch Aina would definitely inquire about it, explaining this principle was indeed quite difficult, and the threshold was very high.
“Actually, I can tell you, but it’s very hard, and the threshold is high, okay?” I reminded her.
“I knew you would refuse… wait! You really want to say it?!” Aina seemed to just realize this, looking at me in astonishment.
Suddenly, it seemed she remembered some rumors about Xiao Han.
Among those rumors was one that said Xiao Han loved to share, and most of it was done without compensation, from the free distribution of the structure of Fireball Spell’s Spellbook’s Floating World level to the public sharing of Dream Demon Spells and the Dream Rewriting Spell, even the derivations of the Great Spellbook and the comprehensive promotion of the Great Knowledge Seed and Knowledge Seed, the open-source techniques of the Wanlian Main Network Tree, and recently, Xiao Han was also preparing to promote the topic of Self-Generated Magic…
And now… Xiao Han was even willing to share with her the method of opening the Dream Realm in the Primordial Dream World!
This was the first time she felt so intuitively Xiao Han’s “selflessness”!
If it weren’t for the fact that this was just her soul consciousness, she felt her heart racing; this emotion of excitement was beyond her control and was already spilling over!
“Yes, I don’t mind making this method public, but I want to say that it is very difficult and hard to popularize.”
“That’s fine! Xiao Han, just say it! If I can’t learn it, that’s my problem, definitely not yours!” Aina said confidently.
“Alright… since you’re insisting…” I sighed and began to explain.
“From my practical experience, the primary requirement is to have a certain accomplishment in the Soul Great Topic, to have a thorough understanding of the relationship between the soul and the dream…” I then slowly started to share my experiences.
“No problem, I am a practicing witch of the Soul Great Topic, then what?” Aina enthusiastically asked.
“Then you must use the power of Self-Awakened Body Cultivation combined with a thorough understanding of the essence of the soul, link it with the sixth sense Heart Sense, shape the Heart Realm Field, unlock the connection to dream information, establish a perception channel between yourself and the dream information, thereby completing the initial connection to dreams. After that, understanding the essence of the Primordial Dream World—it doesn’t have too much of a threshold for personal ability. As long as you understand its essence, you will naturally align your cognition with instinct and understand how to use it…”
As I spoke this lengthy explanation, Aina had completely stiffened.
Or rather, she had been dumbfounded since she heard the first threshold, “Self-Awakened Body Cultivation.”
Wait… did she miss a big chunk of it?
Why was it that she could understand the previous sentence, but couldn’t comprehend the next one?!
“Um… Sister Aina? Am I not clear enough? Should I use the Great Knowledge Seed for information sharing? Is it that I spoke too quickly?”
“Um… ah… no.” Aina, reminded by me, realized she had lost her composure, “That… Xiao Han, does it really need Self-Awakened Body Cultivation from the very beginning? Why is the leap so large?”
“Yes… sorry, Sister Aina, I was just speaking too quickly.”
“I knew it! How could it demand such high requirements right from the start～”
“Actually, one can also practice through Five Senses Body Cultivation without Self-Awakened Body Cultivation. After completing the sixth sense Heart Sense, one can barely meet the subsequent requirements…”
“Why does it still require body cultivation?”
Aina couldn’t help but complain as she heard my words. Was body cultivation really that essential?
This demand was too high for witches like them who practiced magic!
It’s like separating fields; moreover, this was also the difference between thinking and doing… she had previously mocked body cultivation witches as just being full of muscles… but she didn’t dare bring it up now.
“Sorry… Sister Aina, body cultivation is currently the only way I can establish a perception channel to connect with dream information. You also know that there’s no Extraordinary Energy in the Primordial Dream World, only dream information. My basic concept regarding the current Primordial Dream World mainly includes dream consciousness, information, dream state soul material, etc. And…”
“Wait… wait a minute.” Aina, feeling a bit overwhelmed, raised her hand. This was the first time she felt her understanding of the Extraordinary was so shallow that she couldn’t even comprehend the theoretical basis of a little witch.
After regaining her composure, Aina continued to listen to my explanation.
Realizing that “body cultivation” could not be bypassed, Aina understood she seemed to have reached her limit here, but that didn’t stop her from wanting to learn more.
Even if she might not be able to succeed, what about other witches? Were other witches not capable?
Was there really no witch among the Witch Race who excelled in both body cultivation and academic research?
There must be some!
It’s just that she hadn’t encountered them much until now.
However, the more she listened, the heavier her doubts became, for example… how did Xiao Han discover such a complicated process?
Surely this couldn’t be explained by coincidence!
“In simple terms, you replaced specific information within the Primordial Dream World with the Extraordinary Energy of the real world, restructured the composition of the field to comply with the rules of the Primordial Dream World?” Aina tentatively inquired.
“Mm~ It seems Sister Aina has fully understood!”
“Haha… haha…” Aina awkwardly chuckled a few times; she really wanted to say she understood nothing at all!
What did she even understand?
Xiao Han grasped this principle and process, then achieved this final result, but what about her?
She didn’t know anything!
And let’s not even mention Self-Awakened Body Cultivation—there was also the later methods using [Extraordinary Knowledge] still applicable in the Primordial Dream World… requiring body cultivation as the core foundation to establish the body cultivation field, then using the Great Spellbook to shape it into a composite field with the previous body cultivation field…
Who came up with this plan?!
Oh—it’s the Xiao Han in front of her…
Then there’s nothing to be done…
She even felt like wanting to k*ll her earlier self who had boasted; that was really too embarrassing for a witch!
“Um… Sister Aina? Are you alright?” I watched the seemingly wanting-to-dig-into-the-ground Aina and reminded her.
Aina’s condition even affected her cognition; her form seemed to be gradually shrinking, and if I hadn’t reminded her, it truly felt like she might dig into the ground.
This wasn’t unusual in the Primordial Dream World, just like those students whose consciousness went mad, who could not even distinguish if they were an individual’s cognition; their sensory body in the Primordial Dream World would become vague and even lose human characteristics!
After being reminded, Aina suddenly woke up, and her form “restored” to its original size, as if nothing had happened.
“Oh, okay… mm… not bad… mm…”
“In fact, there’s no need for Sister Aina to care so much. From the very beginning, I knew my method was truly difficult to replicate. Perhaps I might create a low-threshold technique in the future, but I am very clear that even the Academy Head might not meet these requirements, so there’s no need to feel disheartened.”
“Indeed… even the Academy Head might not be able to do it…” This remark made Aina feel a bit better, but for some reason, she still felt strange.
“Yes, let’s talk about such things later, just like my Self-Generated Magic topic; at first, the threshold was also about Self-Awakened Body Cultivation, but hasn’t it decreased to a point where it can be promoted on a small scale now~”
“Then Xiao Han! You are simply the hope of the Soul Great Topic!” Aina suddenly reacted and recalled the once deemed impossible topic of Self-Generated Magic, and now… she couldn’t help but wish Xiao Han had such abilities! “Xiao Han, if you can indeed lower the threshold of this technique in the future! Your achievements will definitely be remarkable!”
“That’s still far off~ There’s still a long way to go! Let’s settle things first… hmm?”
“What’s wrong?” Aina noticed a change in my expression and keenly asked.
“Fool Village has visitors again… this perception… it might be another mad student’s consciousness passing through my screening, sorry, I need to excuse myself for a bit; there have been quite a few surprises in Fool Village lately.”
“It’s fine, Xiao Han, go ahead…” Aina said, “Do you need me… um… never mind, I won’t cause any trouble.”
“It’s nothing~ Just dealing with a maddened consciousness, I’ll be back once I’m done.”
Watching my figure leave again, Aina found herself somewhat dazed.
She suddenly recalled something someone once told her: “It’s easy to admit that one is smart, but it’s hard to admit that others are smarter than oneself.”
She had already donned the title of “Extraordinary Witch,” and she really couldn’t accept that she was inferior to a little witch.
Sure enough… this little witch known to all was truly capable, and even there were rumors in the academy that Xiao Han might even qualify to be a Truth Witch… which she had scoffed at back then.
If… she was saying if… Xiao Han were to ascend to become an Extraordinary Witch, spreading such techniques for the Dream Realm and lowering their thresholds, then she wouldn’t be unable to admit that Xiao Han deserved the title of Truth Witch.
Just think about it… the Great Knowledge Tree derived enough to structure a large communication technique, the Non-Extraordinary Self-Generated Magic Shaping Technique, along with a low-threshold Dream Realm technique… all these returning to the entire Witch Race in the form of Truth Contribution would grant Xiao Han enough prestige to attain the identity of a Truth Witch!
One must know that the title of Truth Witch is not easily obtained; generally, there are two main ways to acquire it: one is through the recognition of the vast majority of witches to achieve the reputation of a honorary Truth Witch, and the other is to obtain the title with absolute strength, which could refer to combat power, academic proficiency, research ability, and correcting the abilities of the reverse witch race, etc.
In summary, a Truth Witch is a title widely recognized among witches, regardless of the method, even if it’s through forceful persuasion of the majority of witches, that is still the capability of the witch~
Of course, there are also rumors that the title of Truth Witch is not just a title but also a blessing of truth from the Grand Library of the Witch World, but these are only speculations.
If Xiao Han accomplished these three basic Truth Contributions, such an achievement would be enough to win the recognition of most witches!
It might even improve the acceptance degree of “Preparatory Witches” among the Witch Race!
The Non-Extraordinary Self-Generated Magic Shaping Technique is a technique that could fundamentally change the teaching methods of major witch academies in the Void!
It might even rapidly increase the number of transformed witches in the future.
This is a great merit for increasing the population of Extraordinary Witches! Although there might be some pure-bl**d original Extraordinary Witches who would resist, the Primordial Witch can foresee and definitely support the dissemination of this technique.
Recollecting these scattered thoughts, she felt that it was still too early to think about these things, at least for Xiao Han, it was still too early.
After calming down, Aina’s rationality and intelligence gradually began to dominate, and then it seemed she thought of the sense of dissonance she felt earlier.
That is… how did Xiao Han know that those consciousnesses were students from other Extraordinary academies, sent as experimental materials?
Following the timeline, Xiao Han should have been the first to enter the Primordial Dream World, followed by the Academy Head and others from other Extraordinary academies.
Theoretically, Xiao Han had no possibility of knowing what had happened in reality.
The more Aina thought, the more she felt this possibility; could it be that everything she encountered was a dream?
After all, the Primordial Dream World is extremely strange and bizarre; combining her memory with the special plot could result in some outrageous situations… could it be that she was already trapped in a special dream?!
Just as Aina was thinking this, my figure returned here once again.
“Alright~ I’ve taken care of it; this time it was quite efficient.”
“Xiao Han…”
“Mm? What’s wrong?” I looked at Aina, whose expression was somewhat unusual, and instinctively asked out of curiosity.
“How do you know what happened in the outside reality? During the time you were trapped in the Primordial Dream World, you shouldn’t be aware that those Extraordinary academies were using students as experimental materials.”
