The crystal trembled for a moment and then came to a stop, with no further changes. Chen Fei tried to increase his elemental force, but aside from keeping the crystal trembling, the result remained the same.
Chen Fei’s expression shifted slightly. The world’s elemental energy nourishes all things, and elemental force is derived from refining this energy. Therefore, most things react to elemental force in some way.
Even those specialized mystical tools designed for peculiar uses, powered by elemental force, can still be influenced by it, although their practical effects may not be very good.
After some thought, Chen Fei decided to use his own mental power instead.
The crystal began to emit a faint light, and the frequency of its tremors wasn’t strong, but a strange aura began to emanate from it.
Chen Fei watched with curiosity as this aura seemed somewhat similar to the illusion he had been dragged into earlier. Initially, he thought that the illusion was a manifestation of his own abilities.
Now it seemed that it might have a close connection to the crystal in his hand.
As Chen Fei’s mental power continued to pour in, the crystal’s response grew stronger. In a hazy state, Chen Fei saw birds, beasts, insects, and fish within the crystal.
They were vivid, exceptionally lively, as if these creatures were sealed within the crystal.
Chen Fei’s curiosity deepened, but as the crystal reached a critical point, it still couldn’t undergo any further changes. No matter how much mental power he invested, the result remained the same.
It was as if there was a barrier, blocking his way. No matter how great his mental power was, it passed through the holes in this “net,” but it couldn’t reveal the truth behind it.
Chen Fei withdrew his mental power, and the crystal, which had been floating, slowly descended into the palm of his hand.
“It responds to mental power, but it’s still not quite there,” Chen Fei muttered to himself.
Standing in place, Chen Fei pondered the situation. His Qianyuan Sword trembled and flew into the hand of his doppelganger nearby. With a tap of his right foot, the Dragon Elephant Formation’s array instantly formed on the ground, providing protection for Chen Fei within.
When it came to mental power, the Strange Heart Realm was unavoidable.
At this moment, the area seemed relatively safe. There had been a few presence fluctuations in the distance earlier, but they appeared to have been frightened away by the electromagnetic cannon’s power. Within several miles, there were no other cultivators in sight.
Chen Fei formed hand seals with both hands, and in the next moment, he slowly closed his eyes.
A cacophony of murmurs filled Chen Fei’s ears, and when he opened his eyes, he found himself in a grayish world. He looked down at the palm of his hand, and sure enough, the crystal had been brought into this place.
Glancing around, Chen Fei deemed this location relatively safe. The closest presence was just a Tier-1 Evil.
Facing a Tier-1 Evil, Chen Fei had completely ignored it because creatures of this level held no value in his eyes.
As long as these Tier-1 Evils didn’t provoke Chen Fei, he would choose to coexist peacefully with them.
Chen Fei began to channel his mental power into the crystal. As soon as he started, he felt the difference from the real world. This crystal was absorbing his mental power at a rate that increased by several times.
With a hazy glow, but in this grayish world of the Strange Heart Realm, it didn’t appear out of place.
The aura emanating from the crystal began to grow thick, dreamlike, and in the end, the crystal no longer drew from Chen Fei’s mental power but actively absorbed the power of the Strange Heart Realm.
The crystal, which had been no larger than a fingernail earlier, had now grown into a one-foot-sized grayish sphere. Through the mist on the surface of the sphere, various images could be seen constantly changing within.
Birds, beasts, insects, and fish were the most basic, but soon, Chen Fei saw scenes of Pingyin County and its people.
However, these images flashed by quickly, and scenes of other cities appeared. They all passed by in a flash, but they were all vivid, as if those cities were right there inside the sphere.
Slowly, the sphere stopped flashing images and returned to a state of chaos. At this point, the crystal no longer absorbed any energy and simply floated quietly.
Chen Fei stared at the sphere, not sensing any danger. After hesitating for a moment, he extended his right index finger and tapped it gently.
If something unexpected were to happen later, the Godslayer Sword would directly sever the contaminated portion. This would injure Chen Fei’s mental power, but it could prevent further losses.
“Hum!”
As Chen Fei’s finger touched the surface of the sphere, ripples spread across the entire sphere, and a bundle of information was transmitted into Chen Fei’s consciousness.
Sensing the contents of the information, a hint of surprise flashed in Chen Fei’s eyes. He then closed his eyes and began to fully receive this bundle of information.
It seemed like an eternity had passed, and the sphere had long since returned to being a crystal, resting in Chen Fei’s hand. Slowly, he opened his eyes.
The Dream Devourer, a mythical creature said to be able to control and even devour dreamscapes.
Chen Fei had come across sporadic mentions of it in the records of the Primordial Sword Sect, but it had always been regarded as a myth. After all, this creature had not been seen for many years, not even by those in the Combined Aperture Tempering realm.
Due to its long absence, many people had come to see it as nothing more than a creature of imagination.
Chen Fei had thought the same until he received the bundle of information. Because this crystal was the remains of the Dream Devourer’s body.
It had been obtained accidentally by a powerful individual, who had then used the Dream Devourer’s body to create a technique for dragging people into dreams, leaving it within the crystal..
