MMB Chapter 32 Mutation
Chapter 32 Mutation
Su Fan frowned. It was only a dozen or so missing, which wasn't a big deal. But how could his emotional crystals in the Mountain and Sea Realm disappear for no reason?
This is unreasonable. With a thought, Su Fan sensed the entire Mountain and Sea Realm and found that there were no extra emotional crystals in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Su Fan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ying Zhao beside him, feeling that he had been stupid. Why didn't he just ask?
"The number of emotional crystals doesn't match, what's going on?" Su Fan asked.
"I felt this thing would be beneficial to me, so I absorbed one." Yingzhao didn't hide anything and frankly admitted it.
"That's not right either. There are more than a dozen missing. Where are the others?" Su Fan wasn't concerned about why Ying Zhao, a creature in a dream, would absorb emotional crystals, the fuel that offsets lifespan activation. He just wanted to find the missing emotional crystals.
"I have been absorbed by the world. I am part of the rules of the dream world, but I have no right to resist the will of the world," Yingzhao explained.
This question completely baffled Su Fan. The world had consumed his emotional crystals? Why would a dream world be competing with him for fuel?
In a flash of inspiration, Su Fan suddenly remembered that after Libervin died, his soul did not seem to disappear completely, but rather a small part of it was assimilated or absorbed by this world.
At the time, Su Fan didn't take it to heart, but now, upon closer reflection, he realized that his dream world seemed to have been absorbing strange things all along, but he hadn't noticed it before.
Su Fan swept his will across the Mountain and Sea Realm, but did not sense any changes. Undeterred, he examined Yingzhao, which had absorbed the emotional crystal, and found that it was essentially no different from the other divine beasts he had created... probably... not much different.
So he was robbed, and it was an inside job; all his emotional baggage went down the drain.
So, is it that strange things have sprung up in this dream world and are about to rebel? That's outrageous! That's defying the heavens!
Su Fan used the Dream Control ability of the Dream Pillow to completely transform this dream world. A continent in the Mountain and Sea Realm, the enormous Seven Treasures Tree at its center, and the eighty-one floating islands surrounding it, along with countless mythical beasts, were all annihilated. Su Fan unleashed the World Annihilation.
Everything went smoothly during this process, so the dream control ability did not fail.
Su Fan had no clue either. Within a year, the dream world had transformed back into the Mountain and Sea Realm.
It's certainly cool to destroy the world with a single thought or create it with another, but it doesn't change anything.
Su Fan decided to use a sting operation, taking out several emotional crystals and placing them beside him, intending to see how the world would absorb his emotional crystals.
Su Fan felt he needed to understand what was going on.
Time passed slowly in their almost frozen focus, but nothing seemed amiss. It was crucial to understand what was happening in the dream world while their [dream control] ability remained intact.
The emotional crystals remained unchanged, which annoyed Su Fan. He thought to himself, "Why don't you eat them? This world isn't stealing my emotional crystals, so why aren't you eating them now?"
With a thought from Su Fan, without any warning, energy fluctuations, or changes in light and shadow, there was no warning.
One of the emotional crystals placed on the ground vanished into thin air, not shattered, not melted, but as if erased by the most precise eraser, or as if it had never existed at all, returning directly to nothingness.
At this moment, Su Fan was unusually focused and naturally sensed that his dream control ability had not disappeared and had indeed been absorbed by the dream world.
But shouldn't the dream world be unconscious? How come this is happening?
After some experimentation, Su Fan discovered that his dream control ability had not failed, and he disagreed with the theory that the dream world would not absorb emotional crystals.
Or rather, Su Fan's authority to control dreams is higher than the authority of the dream world to actively absorb emotional crystals.
As for absorbing emotional crystals before, it might be because the other party's subconscious did not stop it.
Now that we understand the problem, the next step is to solve it.
Su Fan quickly came up with a solution. With a thought, another Su Fan appeared in the dream world.
"You now possess the highest authority besides mine; you are now the Heavenly Dao of the Mountain and Sea Realm," Su Fan said to the version of himself he created in his dream.
This created Su Fan is exactly the same as Su Fan, and even Su Fan gave him all his memories, so in a sense he is Su Fan himself.
Why am I who I am, and not someone else? It's because of my memories. My memories contain my experiences, therefore I am who I am.
Therefore, the Su Fan created by Su Fan is also Su Fan, but he can only exist in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
"So, I'm practically schizophrenic now, right? Or did I create another version of myself on my own initiative? From now on, you'll help me manage the Mountain and Sea Realm, and your main task will be to protect my emotional crystallization," Su Fan said.
"By the way, what's your name? Doppelganger Number One? Heavenly Dao? Gaia? Or should I just call you Su Fan like me?" Su Fan chattered on, looking at his other self.
"Enough with the noise! From now on, I shall be the Heavenly Dao of the Mountain and Sea Realm. You may call me Heavenly Dao. There is no difference between you and me. There's no need for this nonsense." Heavenly Dao disappeared and retreated, after all, the other party also had the authority of the Dream World.
Su Fan awkwardly touched his chin. So this is what happens when you find out you're a clone! Seriously, I can be this cold too.
Speaking of which, how could I be so chuunibyou (delusional) to directly call myself the Heavenly Dao? It's obviously the influence of that guy Chen Yang. It seems that chuunibyou is starting to spread from person to person.
The Mountain and Sea Realm is governed by the Heavenly Dao, so Su Fan left the Mountain and Sea Realm and returned to reality.
Su Fan did not directly put the Dream Pillow into the Seven Emotions Gourd, but instead examined it, and found that the Dream Pillow had changed.
[A Marvelous Item: The Shared Dream Pillow]
Rank: Dust Level
Feature: Shared Dreams
Consumption: One year of lifespan
rule:
1. [Shared] Up to ten consciousnesses can be connected to enter the same dream.
2. [Dream Control] users possess basic control over their dreams.
3. [Sleep Aid] Those who touch the pillow and intend to fall asleep will naturally enter a deep sleep within three minutes.
cost:
1. Users will experience persistent mental fatigue.
2. After each use, the artifact needs to "cool down" for six days.
The attributes of the [Shared Dream Pillow] have changed, and the number of connectable consciousnesses for the [Sharing] ability has changed.
Previously, only five consciousnesses could be connected, but now it has increased to ten, doubling the number, and the cooldown period has also been reduced by one day.
This shouldn't be happening! What's going on? Why has the 【Shared Dream Pillow】changed?
As mentioned before, Su Fan's ideal scenario is that the [Shared Dream Pillow] can connect with enough consciousnesses, so that each person can use an Emotion-Absorbing Gourd in a big city to help absorb and condense emotional crystals.
However, Su Fan cannot afford the cost of directly strengthening the [Shared Dream Pillow], at least not at present. So why has the [Shared Dream Pillow] undergone a benign mutation?
