1514 Establishment
“Albra’s Pupil is seen as a product of Occult. Look carefully, observe, and try to establish a link with Albra’s Pupil. You can obtain Occult knowledge from it through praying.”
“Establishing communication requires a lot of mental strength. We are in a hurry. If you don’t have enough mental strength, drink some potion to replenish it.”
Ivanson said softly beside Fang Heng, “But you must be careful. You are only at elementary Occult now, so your cultivation time must not exceed three hours. Otherwise, your life will be in danger. If you die here, it will be very troublesome for me. Do you understand?”
“Yes.”
“And one more thing you must remember. See that red circle?”
Fang Heng looked in the direction where Ivanson was pointing.
A circle was drawn on the ground about three meters from the glass cylinder, surrounding the entire cylindrical glass artifact in the center.
“Albra’s Pupil will produce violent fluctuations when humans approach it, so don’t go near it. The Occult Society members have set up a large number of alarm devices on the ground, some for humans outside and some for Albra’s Pupil. Once you go over, you will trigger the alarm, so don’t go near that red line.”
“That’s all you need to take note of. Do your best. There won’t be any problems. Also, I can’t stay here for too long. You will stay here on your own to cultivate.”
After Ivanson finished his instructions, he patted Fang Heng’s shoulder and gestured to the surveillance cameras in every corner of the room with his chin.
“If there’s anything, just give me a signal. I’ll keep an eye on you in the monitoring room. If anything goes wrong, I’ll come over at any time.”
“Alright.”
Fang Heng answered and watched as Ivanson left. He then slowly walked forward and sat on the ground like the other cultivators, facing Albra’s Pupil.
Fang Heng slowly activated his Perception.
Whoosh!
What was that?
Pressure!
Upon activating his Perception, Fang Heng immediately felt a wave of pressure released by Albra’s Pupil pressing down on him.
The Coercion that was caused by mental strength.
Albra’s Pupil did not release it on purpose.
The intensity was not high, and Fang Heng could easily resist it with his current spirit strength.
After Fang Heng got used to the pressure, he gradually released his mental strength, wrapped it around his Perception, and directed it over. He gradually approached Albra’s Pupil and tried to establish a spiritual construct with it to achieve the goal of ‘praying’ to obtain knowledge.
Due to the special barrier between species, communication between the two was very difficult and required a lot of mental strength.
Fang Heng tried hard, and his heart skipped.
Did he succeed?
It was easier than expected.
The Albra’s Pupil in the hall seemed to have been trained countless times. The mental strength required to complete the connection was not as much as he had imagined.
A deep, heavy stream of consciousness was transmitted through the Perception that Fang Heng had just established.
Albra’s Pupil had existed in the world for hundreds of millions of years and witnessed the existence of countless Occult knowledge.
Fang Heng tried to convey his request to obtain knowledge.
Soon, a weak information flow was gradually transmitted back through the Perception wrapped in mental strength.
Fang Heng immediately felt awakened and allowed that stream of consciousness to enter his sea of consciousness.
A wave of profound and incomprehensible knowledge surged into his sea of consciousness.
Fang Heng closed his eyes and tried to sense the information.
Soon, Fang Heng found a huge pit.
Most of the information that flowed into his sea of consciousness was useless and messy. Only a portion of it was related to the Occult.
That was troublesome.
He had absorbed too much at once, and the mixed information flow had caused a huge impact on his sea of consciousness!
For a moment, the entire sea of consciousness was somewhat unstable.
He needed a lot of mental strength to clear that unclear and miscellaneous information and simultaneously receive useful knowledge related to Occult. Therefore, Fang Heng immediately cut off the spiritual link with Albra’s Pupil and began to digest the information in his sea of consciousness.
The game hint appeared in front of him.
[Hint: The player has prayed and communicated with Albra’s Pupil to obtain knowledge. The player has obtained 812 occult experience points.]
[Hint: The player has prayed…]
The game hints popped up on his retina every ten seconds.
Every time, a figure of nearly 1,000 experience points popped up.
If it were an ordinary person, that cultivation speed would be considered fast.
But Fang Heng was different.
The messy Academic Bloodline in his body exceeded the game’s limits by too much. The difficulty of leveling up Occult was dozens of times that of ordinary people!
After praying for knowledge from Albra’s Pupil, Fang Heng realized that a part of the mixed information that flowed into his sea of consciousness was bizarre and was running amok in his sea of consciousness.
It was very time-consuming to process those obscure and meaningless information streams.
It might not be a problem if he did not deal with it in a short period, but if he allowed it to continue accumulating, his sea of consciousness would be filled with a large amount of information trash, which might damage his sea of consciousness.
Moreover, as the sea of consciousness was filled with more information, the available space would become lesser, and his consciousness would also be affected.
He had to eliminate them quickly.
Fang Heng was well aware of the dangers in the sea of consciousness. He couldn’t help but open his eyes and look up at the surveillance camera in the corner of the hall.
Ivanson didn’t tell him that such a cultivation method would cause permanent damage to his sea of consciousness if he didn’t handle it well.
Fang Heng closed his eyes again and controlled his mental strength to remove the impure energy in his sea of consciousness quickly.
It took him half an hour to finish before Fang Heng opened his eyes again.
No way.
After going back and forth for almost an hour, he had only gained less than 8,000 experience points.
His Occult level hadn’t even reached Level 3.
Such a method of gaining experience from praying to the mysterious creature required using the sea of consciousness. He could not use the zombie clone to gain experience in batches like before.
It wasn’t suitable to farm experience.
Was there perhaps a better way?
Fang Heng looked at the eyeball levitating in the cylindrical glass artifact in the middle of the room and fell into deep thought.
Once he focused on Albra’s Pupil for a moment, relevant information immediately appeared in Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: The player has discovered a special object – Albra’s Pupil]
[Hint: The player can try to approach or touch the object to obtain more information.]
Approach?
Looking at the game hint, Fang Heng could not help but look around and stand up.
More than ten Occult students were cultivating in the cultivation hall. Although they were cultivating with a calm mind, any commotion would definitely attract their attention.
Moreover, Ivanson had specifically instructed him not to cross the red line, so Fang Heng did not dare to get too close. He only slowly took a few steps closer to Albra’s Pupil.
Fang Heng stared at the eyeball in the glass artifact.
That won’t do. It was still too far away. He still could not obtain any information.
Oh right.
There was that!
