Chapter 67 Mental Power Harvesting 8
Chapter Sixty-Seven
"Just like you, when I first came here, I didn't want to come out. But improving my mental strength is a must every night. Last night, I didn't call you because your assessment was balanced. So, how many moves have you learned?"
"I learned three."
"Wow, that's amazing! I didn't learn a single move on the first day, hahaha, my body is too stiff, I couldn't even do that."
Aren't you afraid of losing your physical and mental balance?
"Don't worry, this body-strengthening method and mental training complement each other. Even if your mental strength is much stronger than your physical strength, as long as you keep practicing these movements, your body will never break down."
“These methods are all unstable. They were tested time and time again by our predecessors. In the beginning, many predecessors sacrificed themselves to achieve the stability we have today, so that we can steadily improve our spiritual power.” Xu Yue’s face showed pride and heartache, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"The highest record of her survival is that her mental strength is almost twice that of her physical strength. She survived thanks to this body-tempering method. Of course, twice is just an estimate, there is no accurate value."
"You'll know once you try, but we must all remember the sacrifices of our predecessors! That's why everyone is working so hard, to improve our mental strength and rescue our homeland and people as soon as possible." Xu Yue pointed to the people on the training ground, his smiling face showing determination.
It's the eighth day. Lin Xia was so engrossed in training last night and today that she almost forgot she was in the apocalyptic world.
The training room was filled with small cabins, all of which were already full of people, with others waiting outside. Nobody seemed to be in a hurry.
"Come on, give it a try. It's very simple, but the results will definitely surprise you." Xu Yue's voice was filled with satisfaction and joy.
Lin Xia lay down inside as well. The cold machine was pressed against her head, making Lin Xia shiver.
As the familiar drowsiness washed over her, Lin Xia paused, opened her eyes, and saw the same scene, except that above her, a black, illusory monument was suspended in mid-air.
Lin Xia gritted her teeth to keep from jumping. On the square monument, countless pipes connected to training chambers, and a surge of spiritual energy instantly merged into Lin Xia's spiritual energy.
When she opened her eyes, Xu Yue was standing outside the training pod, looking at her with a bright smile: "Isn't it great? Haha, get up, it's my turn."
The people outside looked at her kindly, and seeing that she was pale, they comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, it's normal to feel a little uncomfortable. You'll get used to it and it will be fine."
"The coaches are really something. Why are they training our mental strength and physical fitness so soon after we arrived? Have they even started training us?"
"Can mental power be trained indefinitely here?" Lin Xia asked.
"Of course not. Those who came in the earliest, no matter how much they tempered their bodies, could no longer improve their mental strength here. But it is said that if the body tempering method is practiced to its extreme, it can also increase mental strength. It's just a pity that no one has done it yet."
......
Lin Xia walked quickly back to her dormitory. After closing the door, she started gagging until tears streamed down her face before she sat down on the floor to calm down.
Lin Xia's mental strength increased by 30 points, but thinking about where this mental strength came from made her gag.
What exactly is going on? Why is the square tablet she saw in her dream located in this training base? Who built this base, and what is their purpose?
Was this disaster man-made, or were these people manipulated?
Lin Xia's mind was a bit confused. The Starfire Body Tempering Technique was a good thing. Although it could improve one's physique very quickly, its energy came from the inside out.
But the mental training method here is basically just mental infusion, just like in her dream before. It's like people raising geese and force-feeding them through tubes for foie gras. In the end, isn't it just like lambs waiting to be slaughtered?
If these people knew the origin of this spiritual power... Lin Xia couldn't imagine how desperate they would be...
Lin Xia felt she should leave, but a voice in her heart said this was a good place to improve her strength.
Lin Xia's face turned pale. It happened again. This voice in her heart hadn't appeared for several days since the thread was broken in that dream. This place is related to that dream.
Seeing that he only had 17,300 survival points, Lin Xia stopped his impulsive idea of exchanging them for mental power.
When her mental strength reached 600 in the dream, she entered that space. So she should be able to confirm that 600 is a critical point.
She strongly doubted that what those people meant by "the ultimate" was 600. That 600 could uncover the truth, regardless of who was behind it, was something that shouldn't be allowed.
Her current mental strength is 480 and her physical constitution is 456. 17300 can only push one of the values to 600.
Her best option now is to use survival points to improve her physical condition and then use mental energy infusion to enhance her mental strength as well.
Lin Xia smiled wryly; this was the best solution.
Shaking her head, Lin Xia patted her face. "Alright, stop being so dramatic. In the end, spiritual power is just a ball of energy. Are you going to give up hope of living just for some kind of morality or conscience? Don't be ridiculous."
Lin Xia exchanged for 144 points of physique and used them.
[Constitution has reached 600, Strength +110, Speed +110. Keep up the good work!]
After drinking the nutrient solution and water, I turned off the signal jammer and lay down.
Ignoring the demons and monsters that appeared, she immediately boosted her mental power. Once in this space, without further delay, Lin Xia quickly ran towards the square monument.
This time, there was no need for vigilance or caution; we quickly reached our destination.
The insects were still fast asleep, so Lin Xia went directly behind the square tablet, where she could avoid being harmed by the insects.
She waited a long time before the insect released its spiritual energy. She quickly ran to the front, enveloped the energy that was about to enter the square tablet, and gradually incorporated it into her own spiritual energy. Watching the energy value on the attribute panel increase continuously, Lin Xia cautiously probed.
Lin Xia stopped when her mental energy reached 600, but there wasn't much mental energy left in front of her. Lin Xia felt that the mental energy ball in front of her was much smaller than the one she had last time.
She waited quietly. The insects swarmed again, and the moment the silk threads appeared, Lin Xia dodged the mental energy cluster.
My mental energy instantly entered my body along the silk thread, and I finally saw it!
The thing in her mind was an identical, only tiny, transparent worm, clinging to her brain nerves, almost merging with them.
At the same time, space shattered, and Lin Xia returned.
Opening her eyes, at 8 a.m. on the ninth day, Lin Xia was pale and saw the location of the insect. She used her mental power to examine the nerves in her brain.
Perhaps because her connection with the giant insect had been interrupted for the second time, the insect in Lin Xia's mind became restless, allowing Lin Xia to easily sense its presence in the location she could see.
It is transparent and overlaps with the brain nerves in the same way, so realistic that it would be impossible to detect it unless you had seen its location beforehand.
At this moment, the transparent worm was wriggling, and the tentacles on its head were trembling, as if it was probing something.
What should she do? Based on her previous experience, Lin Xia guessed that the creature lying on her nerves could sense her thoughts.
That's why those whispers in one's heart exist.
