Chapter 261 Diamond-level mental power!
The brain worm sneaked in silently, and no one noticed.
Lin Zhen was still asleep. The brain worm flapped its wings and wandered around the room for a while, then quietly landed on Lin Zhen's forehead.
A blue light flashed, and the brain worm disappeared, entering Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness.
The brain worm starts by breaking the mental power. By breaking the mental power's defense, it can control a person's soul, control his thoughts, and make him a puppet of the manipulator behind the scenes.
When the brain worm invaded Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness, Lin Zhen woke up suddenly.
He sat up suddenly, his whole body convulsing in pain, and his spiritual consciousness was in great pain! "Damn it! What is this?"
Lin Zhen could clearly see the little blue beetle in his spiritual sea of consciousness. He felt like he had seen this thing before.
"Ah! This is a brain worm. How can there be such a thing on Earth?"
Brain worms are not uncommon in the interstellar space, and are generally used to control human souls.
This thing is not considered high-end stuff, it is a kind of exotic beast. The ultimate effect it can achieve is similar to the soul-locking skill used by Lin Zhen.
Once this thing invades a person's spiritual consciousness, it will specifically destroy that person's spiritual power. Once the spiritual power is destroyed, the soul will be controlled and become a puppet that can be manipulated by anyone.
"Oh no! The appearance of the brain worm proves that there are people from extraterrestrial civilization on Earth. I didn't expect that these people are lurking here now. No wonder the extraterrestrial civilization will attack the Earth in the future. It turns out that they have been in contact for a long time."
"Why would he choose to control me? If the brainworm is used well, even ordinary stars can be controlled. Why me?"
Lin Zhen is no longer able to think about this problem at the moment, because the brain worm is already trying to break through Lin Zhen's mental blockade and enter the deep core of his spiritual sea of consciousness, which is where the soul is.
The only thing Lin Zhen could do was to mobilize his mental power to block the invasion of the brain worm! If we describe the existence of mental power, then at this moment Lin Zhen's mental power is a dark golden ball of light, floating in the spiritual sea of consciousness, with a trace of golden power inside, which is a manifestation of not yet reaching the peak of dark gold.
The core of the light ball is a person's soul, the core of his entire being, which controls his body and his mind.
This blue brain worm started from the edge of the dark golden light ball and began to dig inwards.
Those pure dark gold lights are difficult to dig out, but the dark gold aura in Lin Zhen’s spiritual sea of consciousness is still not pure enough. Those golden parts are the flaws.
The brainworm waved its two front paws and began to dig along the part with the golden aura. A trace of mental power leaked out, and a loophole appeared! The pain was like someone holding a needle and stirring it in his brain. Lin Zhen's teeth were bleeding.
But he didn't say a word. No one else could help him with this matter. Even if he called his parents or An Ning in, it would be useless. Even Xiao Nuan would be useless. They couldn't split his brain open.
The only thing he could do was to endure the severe pain and use his mental strength to resist the invasion of the brain worm.
Once he couldn't bear it anymore and gave up, the brain worm would quickly invade along the direction of the golden aura and quickly control his soul.
He clutched the quilt tightly with both hands, sweat dripping all over his body! "It hurts! It hurts so much!"
In less than five minutes, the brain worm had advanced about one-third of the way into Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness. No matter how Lin Zhen dodged and blocked it, the golden aura was a flaw that could not stop the brain worm from advancing.
"No! This won't work. Get out of here!"
The dark gold mental power began to chase and intercept. Whenever the brain worm encountered the dark gold mental power's sea of consciousness, it would automatically turn around and pursue the golden power for excavation.
“Rip!”
The quilt was torn by Lin Zhen, and he almost fainted from the pain.
"No, I can't faint. I can't faint. Once I faint, I won't be myself when I wake up. I must hold on. I can't faint!"
Lin Zhen raised his hand, and the golden Seven-Star Sword appeared in his hand.
Just when the pain became unbearable and he felt he could not hold on any longer, the blade swept across his arm.
Blood flowed out, and the pain in another place cheered Lin Zhen up. With his attention diverted, the pain in his brain was slightly relieved.
But this was only temporary, the brain worm's digging continued. A few minutes later, Lin Zhen cut himself a second time.
Rays of white light flashed across Lin Zhen's body. It was the healing power of light that healed Lin Zhen's injuries.
Seeing that the brain worm was about to dig halfway, Lin Zhen realized that this would not work.
"Is there no other way? I am destined to become a puppet if I continue like this. That trace of golden energy is the flaw in my spiritual sea of consciousness. The only thing I can do is to completely eliminate it."
"And the only way to get rid of this golden energy is to work hard to improve my mental power and allow me to advance again. Right now, the severe pain caused by the brain worm has made my mental power run at an unprecedented speed. I have also reached the peak of dark gold. If I can advance, the brain worm will not be able to find my flaws and will naturally be able to break through."
The severe pain from the soul did not knock Lin Zhen down. He relied on his soul strength that surpassed that of ordinary people to resist.
The mental power was running at an ultra-high speed. At this time, Lin Zhen came up with a last-ditch effort, which was to practice!
A trace of golden aura peeled off from Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness. Under the stimulation of severe pain, the dark gold mental power grew rapidly. Although it could not completely resist the attack of the brain worm, the flaws began to become less and less.
Maybe a miracle will really happen.
******** In the ancient god ruins, Shu Mingxuan was so anxious that he was sweating.
"How could it take so long? How could it be that it was not under control for such a long time? The brain worm clearly invaded Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness. I can feel it."
"Could it be that this guy has some kind of spiritual defense star device?"
"No! The spiritual defense star device can't stop the brain worm. That thing directly attacks the spiritual sea of consciousness, starting from the inside."
"There will be no problem. As long as I can control Lin Zhen, I can basically win the championship of this Arena of Valor."
He paced back and forth in his cockpit anxiously, constantly checking the time and sensing the condition of the brain worm.
He could feel through the secret method that the resistance the brain worm was facing was getting stronger and stronger, but he didn't know how Lin Zhen did it.
"Could it be that this kid has already reached the diamond level of spiritual power? No, that's impossible. Diamond level only appears in the Star Realm. Even ordinary Star Realm doesn't have diamond level spiritual power. How can Lin Zhen, a mere seventh level war god, cultivate to that level?"
"I'll wait another hour. If the brainworm still can't take down Lin Zhen in an hour, I'll have to choose the next target. After all, the power of the brainworm is limited."
Shu Mingxuan looked at the time nervously, and half an hour passed in a flash.
******** Lin Zhen could hear An Ning's soft voice outside. She seemed to be talking to Yue'er. If it were in the past, Lin Zhen might have eavesdropped, but he couldn't do it now.
He could feel that the brain worm's power was also weakening. Although its digging depth had exceeded four-fifths, its power was close to exhaustion.
At this moment, the golden period's mental power accounts for less than one thousandth of Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness!
As long as he can completely refine this bit of golden period power, Lin Zhen will truly reach the peak of dark gold and move towards the diamond period.
"Let's do it in one go! Get it out of here!"
Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness began to operate at a high speed, and then the pain that was like tearing his soul made his mental activity more intense, and the golden aura was rapidly decreasing.
The waving claws of the brainworm were effectively blocked by the dark gold aura. The gold aura became less and less, and it was less than one ten-thousandth of it! "Disappear completely!"
Lin Zhen activated his mental power again, and finally, the last bit of golden energy disappeared!
At this time, the brain worm was only about to dig through the last thin layer, and the soul was already within reach.
The brain worm felt the power of the soul, and it was still making its final effort!
At this moment, the pain was magnified a hundred times! Lin Zhen's sweat soaked through his clothes and even soaked the quilt.
"This is the final blow. I can't give up. I'm going to fight back. Get out of here, you disgusting bug!"
His soul saved him once again. He was able to hold on despite such pain, allowing his mental power to work once again! This was a crucial operation. After this operation, a bright light emanated from Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness!
The power of diamond! Lin Zhen has reached the diamond stage of spiritual master at this moment!
"roll!"
This trace of diamond power was like an indestructible blade, attacking the brain worm fiercely.
Lin Zhen finally launched a counterattack.
The brain worm felt as if it was stabbed by a knife. Its body trembled and suddenly retreated from Lin Zhen's spiritual sea of consciousness.
After leaving Lin Zhen’s mind, a small hole appeared in the space and the brain worm drilled in.
According to Shu Mingxuan's instructions, since it failed to defeat Lin Zhen, it must find the next target and make sure to control one person in order to win the God of War Arena.
Just as the brain worm left, Lin Zhen became completely exhausted and fell heavily on the bed.
An Ning was still wandering outside the room. She and Su Mingyue had just finished a phone call. In their opinion, Lin Zhen must be extremely depressed about not being able to participate in the God of War Arena. The two girls talked for a while but could not think of how to comfort Lin Zhen.
Just when An Ning was worried, she heard the voice from Lin Zhen's room and rushed in. When she saw Lin Zhen's condition, her face suddenly turned pale: "Lin Zhen, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me. Isn't it just that you don't want to participate in the God of War Arena? It's no big deal, Yue'er and I will accompany you."
Lin Zhen was stunned for a moment, then slowly raised his hand and gently touched An Ning's beautiful face, with an extremely happy smile on his face: "An Ning, I'm fine, I'm very happy to hear what you said just now, but I think I'd better not miss the God of War Tournament tomorrow."
