Chapter 773: A Clash of Hearts

Compared to other battlefields, the battle between Zhan Lan and Linaya, two spiritual controllers, showed a completely different style.

Zhan Lan was surrounded by darkness, like the vast and deep space, with stars rising and falling, and the starlight was shining. If you look closely, you will find that the starlight is actually a collection of brilliant spiritual words and mysterious spells. They are transmitted from one star to another, holding the stars together like gravity; they also attract the surrounding spiritual energy, blending into a galaxy that wraps around Zhan Lan, making her look as dazzling as the goddess of the stars.

Behind Zhan Lan is the most dazzling and heaviest silver star. The changes in the brilliance and flickering coincide with the ups and downs of Zhan Lan's heart. When it contracts, it absorbs darkness, and when it relaxes, it emits silver light. It is the center and origin of the entire universe.

——Since the team battle with the Devil Team in Resident Evil 2, Zhan Lan's "heart-phase universe" has reappeared.

On the opposite side of her, nine giant towers were built around Linaya.

The sacred and solemn golden tower, the isolated chalk tower, and the molten forging tower.

The sacrificial tower with holy fire, the mystery tower with runes circling, and the crystal tower with brilliant light.

The skeleton tower with holy relics, the mechanical tower with gears turning, and the natural tower with branches and leaves towering into the sky.

The nine towering towers all have completely different styles and origins, but they have a commonality, that is, they exude the meaning of divinity.

And around these nine towers, large-scale castles, fortresses, churches, temples, and palaces emerged from the void. Countless tall and magnificent buildings were piled together in a regular geometric distribution, laying out a mysterious layout that Zhan Lan could not understand but could know its strangeness. It was like a country, with praises, prayers, confessions, sermons, and chanting coming from it, and it was endless.

——And in the center of the city-state, Linaya sat on the throne like a noble queen, ruling everything.

Unlike the battle between Zhan Lan and Tom, both Zhan Lan's galaxy universe and Linaya's sacred kingdom are not just illusions in the spiritual space, but have actually descended into the real world.

The surrounding scenery constantly changes with the spiritual battle between the two. Sometimes the darkness of the deep starry sky surges towards the kingdom of God like rolling mist, and sometimes the holy light of the noble kingdom of God swallows the starry sky like bright sunshine, just like a piece of drawing paper that is repeatedly painted by the two, competing to dye it with their own colors.

It is no exaggeration to say that in this field, they are painters who wield brushes and ink, gods who use words as their command, and the masters of both illusion and reality.

This is the battle between the spiritual power controllers of the Zhongzhou team and the Tianshen team. Just by opposing each other, they erode each other's mental universe.

If the battle between the first-level mental controllers is a competition of mental power and skills, looking for each other's flaws, and initially turning their mental power into weapons, whoever has stronger physical strength and energy will win.

Then the battle between the second-level mental controllers gradually involves the competition between "mental appearances". Whoever has a higher intention, who has stronger strength, who can break through the opponent's defense line first in the spiritual world, break into the opponent's heart, and dig out the deepest secrets in the opponent's heart, can win absolute victory in spirit and body.

The winner is the king and enjoys the glory of the winner; the loser is a slave and swallows the bitter fruit of failure. Whether it is the large amount hidden in the mind and memory, or the absolute control over the self-spirit, it will become the spoils of others.

Then, what about the battle between the third-level mental controllers?

The answer is, "Tao".

The third-level spiritual controllers all have a unique understanding and definition of their own minds and even the minds of all living beings. Past experiences, beliefs and desires are sublimated into the path of self. Their confrontation is no longer limited to strength and skills, but a competition between the superiority and inferiority of the paths.

This level has already vaguely touched the realm of spiritual light. Therefore, when the spiritual controller reaches the fourth level, he can touch that layer of boundary and achieve the magical resonance of mind and matter... Not only those mental landscapes that were once regarded as illusory in the depths of the mind appear in reality, but even reality has become the battlefield of their spiritual confrontation!

During this period, Zhan Lan learned the "Yuanling Guixin Technique" of the Wuyue Temple. This technique emphasizes "holding the origin and guarding the oneness, the aura is self-generated, and the origin of all things is from the heart." Zhan Lan combined it with the "Star Constellation Change Diagram" that he originally practiced. Just by meditating and visualizing, he can transform the power of the mind into life and aura, and can also breathe in the external aura to feed the spirit.

She originally just wanted to optimize her body and energy circuits, which were originally weak points. However, as she practiced more deeply, she found that the connection between her mind-image universe and the outer universe became closer and closer, until she could project and display images like now.

According to the saying of cultivation, this is "internal and external convergence, internal scenery and external manifestation". Her spiritual world and the real world merged with each other, and her mind and spiritual energy merged into a barrier.

Although Zhan Lan has not yet truly unlocked the fourth-order gene lock, her long-term practice in Rongomyniad has allowed her to touch the boundary between the third and fourth levels in advance. Half a foot has already stepped into the door of the fourth level, and after integrating everything she has learned, she has a more real "mind-image universe" -

Its name is, "Star Mantra Source Heart Realm"!

"The prototype of the light of the mind..."

Staring at Zhan Lan who had begun to interfere with the reality of the telepathic universe, Linanya's voice contained a touch of surprise, and even though she tried her best to hide it, she still couldn't hide the shock.

She had wondered how she, as a true fourth-level mental power controller, could be so inextricably linked to Zhan Lan on the opposite side. It was only at this moment that Linanya finally had the answer, and everything became clear.

Although I don't know what kind of experience allowed Zhan Lan to develop such a powerful "psychic universe", Linanya can feel Zhan Lan's mental power just by piercing the opponent's field with her mental power like a probe. The momentum almost condensed into substance is as vast and vast as the real universe...

"Do you know why our Celestial Team is so powerful?"

Completing the analysis of the nature of the heart universe is not a short time effort, and it is not clear what kind of state of mind this galaxy universe represents Zhan Lan, so Linanya turned her brows and said calmly: "The reason why he can take on the role of 'god' "The name is because each of us, with the help of the captain, integrates some mythical concepts and reveals some kind of path beyond human beings."

Linanya would not be so kind and reveal her secret to Zhan Lan for no reason. Instead, she was using words as a carrier to launch an offensive against Zhan Lan.

As long as Zhan Lan hears her words, it means that his brain has accepted the information from her. For mental power controllers at this level, they can bury mental attacks in all the information they release.

A word, a look, a gesture, even the body fragrance and heartbeat frequency can become weapons for them to invade each other's minds and implant spiritual hints and vicious intelligence. The so-called "Tsukuyomi" illusion of the Mangekyo Sharingan is just something that a strong person of this level can do easily.

But Zhan Lan did not close his brain because of this, but remained vigilant while listening. Because while Linanya was testing Zhan Lan's spiritual nature, Zhan Lan was doing the same thing.

The noisy spiritual fluctuations that seemed to be composed of countless people's prayers, confessions, calls and shouts made it difficult for Zhan Lan to accurately locate Linanya's spiritual essence, just like it was difficult to hear a person's low murmur in a bustling city. , so she must seize the opportunity for Linanya to actively communicate and lock in the ups and downs of the pattern.

"Yinglong is a cultivator who has achieved true cultivation, Song Tian is a seeker who enters Taoism through martial arts, Liala is a dragon species whose body has evolved to the extreme, Alanster is a prototype human with an angel soul, and the dead Karan "Pure Energy" has been achieved."

Linanya looked indifferent and deliberately did not mention the information about Adam. She said: "I am similar to Ying Long. I represent the magical path of belief in becoming a god, and this is the fusion of what the captain gave me." After "The Fruit of Life", the 'Kingdom of God' evolved and was born based on my mind and universe."

The fruit of life, the kingdom of God.

It was like a flash of lightning flashed across his mind. When he heard these two words, Zhan Lan suddenly realized. But at the same time she understood, a massive amount of information suddenly poured into her spirit like an out-of-control flood!

Like a bolt from the blue, Zhan Lan lost his mind for a moment, because these two words were exactly the trap prepared by Linanya, the Trojan horse and worm she created!

"Unfortunately, you lack the ability to be subtle, and your experience in fighting other mental controllers is not as rich as mine."

Seeing that Zhan Lan's defense finally showed some flaws, Linanya showed a smile, feeling happy for herself to "get back a win" and also happy that she had taken the opportunity to decipher the essence of Zhan Lan's mind: "That's it...your heart Phase is 'transmission' or 'connection'."

——She was right.

The core of Zhan Lan's heart-centered universe is filled with "missing" and belongs to the power of "transmission". It is the desire to convey one's thoughts, thoughts and words to someone.

Therefore, Zhan Lan can move the world and drive the spirit with half the effort, using the method that Zhang Jie once used in Death Comes, to pass on his will to the five spirits that make up this world, and even once fought have the upper hand.

"That's right."

Zhan Lan, who recovered from a momentary trance, had no time to be discouraged, but admitted that there was a gap in experience between himself and Linanya in "information attacks".

In this case, then avoid weaknesses and exploit strengths and carry out more "real" attacks!

With the movement of turning his palm, an earthy yellow bead was held in Zhan Lan's hand. It was the earth spirit bead that Han Lingsha gave to Yang Yun and was handed over to Zhan Lan by Yang Yun before the war. It is precisely because of this miraculous thing condensed from one of the five spirits of heaven and earth that she can make up for the gap between her and Linanya with half the effort!

——During this period of practice, Zhan Lan not only practiced the Yuanling Heart Returning Technique of Wuyue Temple, but also the "Word Technique" exchanged from the Lord God, as well as the Five Spirit Immortal Techniques of the Immortal Sword World. Progress is also rapid!

The theoretical basis of Ci, that is, the art of speaking and spirituality, is the animism that "all things are inhabited by gods." All things in the world are regarded as beings that have themselves and can communicate with others.

Therefore, Zhan Lan does not rely on his own true energy and formations to control the energy of the five spirits like the monks in this world. Instead, he conveys his will through words and activates the potential spirituality in the aura from Pangu Daojie, making it active. Shape yourself.

"The art of words makes the stars sink and the earth shake!"

With Zhan Lan's shout, boundless earth-type spiritual energy surged out from the earth spirit bead, spreading wantonly in the air, and merged with the earth spirit power between heaven and earth. The countless star lights behind her combined with the earth spirit energy, turning into stars, rolling up a storm, and quickly attacking the kingdom of God opposite Linaya!

Facing Zhan Lan's attack, Linaya naturally did not dare to neglect it. She waved her arms solemnly, and the light of faith in the kingdom of God suddenly rose up, turning into golden runes arranged into a formation, releasing countless kinds of defensive spells, and together combined into a dark purple hexagonal barrier tightly arranged like a honeycomb!

——Stars fell like rain, but they could not achieve success.

Even if the rain of stars in the sky could engulf one, ten, or even hundreds or thousands of layers of barriers, as the accumulated dark purple light continued to flash, there would always be new defensive barriers emerging like a tide, like an indestructible fortress, blocking Zhan Lan's offensive again and again.

Facing the dark purple barrier in front of her, Zhan Lan retracted her slender hands, but her expression was not the slightest bit frustrated. Instead, Linaya frowned: "You..."

"Information attacks have always been two-way, just as Nietzsche said: 'When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you.'"

Exhaling a breath, Zhan Lan smiled and said: "Good skills, I already know the essence of your mind... Linaya-Bernadotte 'Teacher'."

She deliberately emphasized the last two words: "If my mind is 'transmission', then you are 'rejection'."

For the spiritual controller who has mastered the subtle power, any information can be used as a means of attack, and the release of energy is naturally no exception. Containing spirit in energy is one of the subtle skills of the spiritual controller.

"Teaching" was very successful. Every star that Zhan Lan projected to Linaya was also her spiritual probe. While colliding fiercely with Linaya's defense, she also obtained enough information from it.

Although Linaya used the power of faith to perform countless magic defense spells, which converged into a dark purple absolute defense, combined with the characteristics of "rejection" and the polygonal shape, Zhan Lan would definitely not mistake the characteristics of the A.T force field that had been repeatedly confirmed... Linaya's spiritual light was the same as Li Ala and Ernst, also an A.T force field!

The third different color, dark purple A.T force field!
