"What is going on? I feel like the spiritual power in my body is dissipating too quickly, and taking pills can't replenish it. I almost thought that the spiritual power in my body was going to be drained out." Ning Jing said loudly.
"Me too. Although there is only a little spiritual power left in my body, it's almost as if it has been drained out." Su Yao also echoed.
"Yeah, I'm in the same situation. What the hell is going on in this damn place?" Xu Fuyi wailed.
"I'm in the same situation as you. I just hope that no new monsters will appear next. Otherwise, given our current situation, I'm afraid we'll be in great danger." Nalan Jingyue also said from the side.
Su Yao thought about it and said slowly: "No matter what, let's start meditating and regulating our breathing to see if we can absorb spiritual energy first."
"Okay." The three of them agreed with Su Yao's suggestion, so they began to sit cross-legged on the spot and tried to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
But the strange thing is that although there is spiritual energy around their bodies, they just can't absorb it into their bodies.
After trying several times without success, I simply stopped.
Su Yao was about to speak, but she found that her body seemed to be recovering on its own. Although the speed was very slow, it was recovering in a real way.
If your body was exhausted before, now it feels relaxed and comfortable.
"Strange, I tried several times just now but couldn't absorb the spiritual energy into my body, but after I stopped, I felt that my body seemed to be recovering?" Su Yao said with some surprise.
The other three nodded.
"Yes, we are in the same situation." Ning Jing agreed.
"Since we can't absorb spiritual energy, how can this body recover? This ghost place is really weird." Xu Fuyi said in surprise.
"Since we cannot absorb spiritual energy, but our bodies can recover on their own, then this is the same as our previous guess. It seems that what we are consuming now is not spiritual power, but our own mental power. If this is the case, then it can be explained." Nalan Jingyue said slowly.
"But this doesn't make sense. When we used spiritual power to deal with those monsters before, it was very real. If it was mental power, how could we kill the monsters?" Ning Jing asked.
"Is there a possibility that we now exist with spiritual power, and everything we did before was an illusion of spiritual power, and those monsters did not really exist." Nalan Jingyue spoke again.
Su Yao's expression changed instantly: "Do you mean that we exist in spiritual power now?"
"That's right. Only in this way can everything be explained. In fact, it is very simple to verify all this. We can go to the place where we just killed the monster and see for ourselves." Nalan Jingyue continued.
Everyone looked at each other, but in order to verify this guess, they chose to stand up from the ground.
Xu Fuyi was the first to speak: "Let's go and see if this speculation is true."
If they had known about this earlier, they would not have chosen a place far away to rest. However, the bloody smell of the corpses of the monsters mixed in the air was really unpleasant.
But when they returned to the place where they had killed the monster before, they were all stunned by the scene before them, because there was no monster corpse in front of them, but a large open space.
Xu Fuyi said in surprise: "Jingyue, it seems your guess is correct."
"If the monsters we killed before were real, there would definitely be no trace of blood in this place now. It seems that this guess is probably true." Su Yao also spoke from the side.
"Yes, at this point, I am more and more certain that we are not in the Fire Realm now. We should be in the body of the Shaoguang Mirror. Only in this way can everything be explained."
"I think so too. You said before that the Shaoguang Mirror can train a person's mental strength, or it can train a person's consciousness. Then the monsters we killed before were all to train our consciousness to be stronger. If that's the case, then I can figure it out." Su Yao said slowly.
Ning Jing seemed to be lost in thought, then she said, "If that's really the case, then the rapid loss of our spiritual energy was all an illusion? What's really being lost is our mental energy?"
"I think that's right."
"Yes, this can explain why we can't absorb spiritual energy, but our bodies are starting to get better, because what we consumed before was our own spiritual consciousness and mental strength." Su Yao continued.
"Ah? Is this good or bad?" Xu Fuyi asked in some confusion.
"I think this should be a good thing. Since we are here now, let's practice well here. I don't think this Shaoguang Mirror will trap us here forever. We should be able to get out when our spiritual consciousness and mental power can be cultivated to a certain level." Nalan Jingyue said calmly.
"Yes, since we are here, we should just make the best of it and wait. Our top priority should be to recover quickly on the spot. If we are really in the Shaoguang Mirror, we will probably encounter other monsters later." Su Yao said with a smile.
Now that the cause of the incident has been guessed, they are no longer so nervous.
"Yaoyao, what you mean is that we will continue to consume our own spiritual power, oh no, should we consume our own mental power? And then recover after it is used up, and finally torture ourselves repeatedly!" Ning Jing wailed.
Su Yao smiled, and then said: "I think, according to the development of the plot, this should be correct."
Ning Jing and Xu Fuyi wailed at the same time: "Ah! No, this is so tiring!"
Su Yao laughed out loud instantly: "Don't worry! Now as long as we can improve our strength, we don't have to mind what form it is used to improve. After all, the gate of the immortal clan will surely reopen soon. I also hope that I can quickly improve my strength and ascend, and then go to the immortal world to help Mr. Huo and others."
Ning Jing and Xu Fuyi were both embarrassed by Su Yao's words. "Yaoyao, you are right. We should improve our strength quickly. However, it seems that we can only wait for our bodies to recover slowly. After all, we can't recover on our own."
"Yeah, it's okay. I think the next monster attack in this Shaoguang Mirror will come after we fully recover."
And what happened next was just as expected. When their mental strength recovered, the next wave of monsters would suddenly appear. Then, when they were completely exhausted, their bodies would begin to recover on their own, and this cycle would repeat.
