Swallowing the Stars: Level 1, One Talent, Invincible Chaos Origin

Chapter 229, The Source of Star Illusion

"The information about the Illusionary Star River that I received is incomplete, but since the 'Source of Star Illusion' possesses intelligence, it must have likes and dislikes."

Star Illusion King continued.

"The Nightmare Clan was wiped out too long ago, and after countless years of extermination by the Zerg, it is almost impossible for Nightmare Clan creatures to still exist. Even if they do, they may have forgotten their past history."

Therefore, it is possible to obtain the treasures within.

"Yes, that's true. If there are Nightmare Creatures, there's no need for others to compete for it."

Jiang Ming nodded, agreeing with Star Illusion King's opinion.

If the 'Source of Star Illusion' contains the wisdom of the entire Nightmare Clan, its bias can only be towards the Nightmare Clan beings; there is no other choice.

"You said I might have already attracted its attention, so what should I do?"

Jiang Ming frowned slightly in thought, unaware that he was being observed.

"This observation is very subtle. I only became aware of it after practicing the Star Illusion Manual. If you have also practiced the Star Illusion Manual, you will probably be able to perceive that observation."

Star Illusion King said with a smile.

"I see."

Jiang Ming raised an eyebrow slightly, immediately showing some interest.

"I have sent you the inheritance information of the Starry Sky Codex through the virtual universe. With your talent and my guidance, you should be able to achieve something in just a few hundred years."

As Star Illusion King spoke, Jiang Ming's consciousness, which was in the virtual universe, received Star Illusion King's email.

Consciousness is immersed in it.

For Jiang Ming, the "Star Illusion Codex" was not a high-level codex; it was merely a fundamental text for training and utilizing soul power to construct a realistic illusion.

For ordinary powerful individuals, this manual could be considered an unparalleled secret technique, but it wasn't difficult for Jiang Ming to understand.

The Abyss of Calamity.

The illusory will clone stopped its constantly changing will structure, sat quietly in the void, and began to comprehend the "Star Illusion Codex".

"Although it's not particularly ingenious, this approach is a solution I haven't tried before, and it's somewhat novel."

After reflecting on it for a moment, Jiang Ming gave a slight thumbs-up.

Many of the concepts in "Starry Sky Codex" are completely different from his own cultivation path, but they can still provide some new perspectives and supplements.

Time turns silently, and decades pass by without a sound.

Seeing that Jiang Ming was slightly focused after receiving the email, Star Illusion King did not urge him.

When you acquire a new secret manual, you need to decipher it and try it out according to your own understanding, which takes some time.

However, given Jiang Ming's speed of receiving will, Star Illusion King estimates that this time will be very short.

Just over ten minutes later, Star Illusion King saw Jiang Ming lightly raise his head.

"So, do you need me to explain anything to you?"

Star Illusion King looked at Jiang Ming and smiled.

"So that's how it is. No wonder I couldn't sense its gaze."

Jiang Ming looked up, and although it was just the ceiling of the lounge, he saw something different.

"Can you see?"

Following Jiang Ming's gaze, Star Illusion King looked on in shock.

How much time has passed since I received the email? Fifteen minutes?

Although the "Starry Sky Codex" is slightly incomplete, it is still a book that is enough to cultivate to the level of a king. The massive amount of information contained in it is enough to overwhelm the minds of some weak people.

Even if a strong person accepts it, it will take some time to fully decipher it.

Faced with Star Illusion King's shock, Jiang Ming did not explain, but looked up.

Just as he activated the Star Illusion Codex, Jiang Ming felt a vague will descend upon him.

Following the source of this will, Jiang Ming saw a blurry phantom. That phantom did not exist in the spacetime dimension of the original universe, but rather in a vast, illusory spiritual domain.

It is similar to the spiritual realm that Jiang Ming once saw in the River of Dry Bones, only more complete and more hidden.

A strange place that cannot be described by conventional dimensions. Its size is enough to cover the entire Fantasy Galaxy, yet it seems so small that it does not exist in a real realm.

This is not a material world, but a vast spiritual realm woven from endless thoughts, memories, and patterns of laws.

At the heart of the spiritual realm, a slowly rotating light source of indescribable color floats.

It has no physical form; rather, it is more like an aggregate formed by countless streams of information and pure mental power.

Just as Jiang Ming's gaze fell upon the 'light source', a consciousness entered his ears.

"By integrating spiritual imprints, one can participate in the test, and by passing the test, one can inherit the legacy."

"This method of establishing a spiritual domain is quite interesting. It must be a special technology of the Nightmare Clan."

Jiang Ming observed that without activating the "Star Illusion Codex" and relying solely on willpower or something else to detect the location of that spiritual domain, it would be impossible to detect it at all.

"This is the wonder of the 'Source of Illusions': the last glory left behind by a race powerful enough to give birth to a cosmic master."

Seeing Jiang Ming's gaze, Star Illusion King snapped out of his shock and spoke to Jiang Ming.

"It is indeed amazing. Without special means, it would be useless to use divine power or soul detection in front of the other party."

Jiang Ming nodded.

"After all, it was the last glory of a powerful race; it's normal for it to be a bit miraculous."

Star Illusion King smiled slightly, and then continued.

"Did you find anything?"

"It allows me to imprint my spiritual mark upon it so I can participate in the trials. Can you do the same?"

Jiang Ming turned to look at Xing Huanwang.

"NO, I have not."

"Star Illusion King said solemnly."

"This means you've already gained its recognition and qualified to participate, while I haven't."

Star Illusion King continued.

"I understand."

Jiang Ming nodded, and separated a wisp of his spiritual imprint, merging it into that spiritual domain.

Within the illusory starry river, that spiritual realm is omnipresent.

It's no wonder that Star King said that in the Star River of Illusion, the 'Source of Star Illusion' can sense the location of every 'Fragment of the Holy Decree'.

The moment Jiang Ming's spiritual imprint merged into it, Jiang Ming's 'consciousness avatar' appeared on a vast, desolate land.

The sky is an unchanging, hazy yellow, devoid of sun, moon, and stars, only containing energy bands like the aurora borealis, intertwining and radiating various colors of light as time passes.

On the cracked earth, only a massive palace stands.

The palace had a circular passageway door, but the door was completely closed.

"To escape this spiritual domain, all you need to do is disperse this spiritual imprint."

Jiang Ming assessed the current situation and thought to himself.

He now sends a wisp of his spiritual imprint into this spiritual realm, which is different from the spiritual realm that he previously descended directly into the River of Bones, carrying very little power.

This spiritual imprint is more like a projection of consciousness.

"Should I go to that palace?"

Jiang Mingxin was subtly drawn to that palace.
