Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 705 Knowing people, knowing faces, but not knowing hearts

The problem of spiritual power not being able to break through its limit has not only plagued the outer city for countless years, but also caused headaches for the races in the wilderness. It has always been a problem that all races are eager to solve, but they have tried countless methods but have never found the right solution.

Now someone is suddenly claiming to have a method to break through the upper limit of mental power?

To be honest, Mo Li, An An, and the others didn't believe it at first.

But when they thought that it was Li Zheng who said these words, the former patriarch of the three clans who was willing to entrust the entire clan to him, they believed him a little more.

"Are Lu Li and the others there? Go find him, Ma Long, and Qian Bukou," Li Zheng said to Wang Chaoran, instructing him to go find them.

"okay!"

Wang Chaoran was very excited to receive the mission, and he ran out to find Lu Li and the other two.

"The others..." Li Zheng looked at Xiao Siyuan and took out a few fairy fruits from the capsule: "Your mental strength is not strong enough for now. You can eat these fruits to strengthen it. When you can actively absorb magic crystal energy, I will have someone teach you how to condense mental strength nodes. This time, just watch from the side and accumulate some experience."

"Alright." Xiao Siyuan took the fairy fruit, handed one to Lin Fengjiao, then examined it carefully. He obtained the fairy fruit's effects through the Eye of Preer before putting it in his mouth and taking a bite.

Wang Chaoran was very fast. Before Xiao Siyuan and the others had even finished eating a single fairy fruit, he had already found Lu Li and the other two.

Lu Li has become much more composed than before. Li Zheng had him undergo excessive training for two or three days, and the results were remarkable. His intermittent mental illness was greatly relieved, and now he might not even have an attack once a day.

Li Zheng glanced at Ma Long and called him over: "It seems that you martial artists have much more spiritual power than ordinary people. You have reached the limit of being able to condense a node. You will be one in a while. Before that, eat another fairy fruit to stabilize it."

After having Xiao Siyuan give Ma Long a fruit, Li Zheng said to the selected group, "Everyone, lower your mental defenses. If you're unsure how to lower them, just don't resist when you feel an intrusion in your mind."

Mo Li and the others agreed, but Dan Fenglai looked at Li Zheng with a wary expression, seemingly not trusting him.

Li Zheng ignored her. In any case, he was giving the three clans a chance this time. If Dan Fenglai couldn't seize the opportunity, it wouldn't be his problem, but Dan Fenglai's problem.

After everyone sat down cross-legged, Li Zheng said to Miriel, "Go and keep watch at the door. Don't let any unrelated people in."

“Okay,” Miriel replied, then went to stand at the door.

Li Zheng released his mental energy from the crowd who were preparing to condense their mental energy nodes, and entered their mental world, shouting, "Do not resist! Otherwise, if you miss this opportunity, I will not teach you a second time!"

The mental world is a very fragile place. Once it is invaded by external forces and the other party has malicious intentions and wreaks havoc in it, it is very likely to fall into an abyss of no return.

The Blood-Patterned Black Dragon Clan had studied this before, but due to limitations in their strength, their research was not profound enough. However, the Black Dragon Ancestor had reached a similar conclusion and had it communicated to all members of the clan.

At this moment, Mo Li sensed a mental force invading his mind and instinctively tried to resist it.

After a long struggle to calm herself down, she finally managed to suppress her instincts and allow Li Zheng to continue delving into her mental world.

Li Zheng multitasked, first invading Mo Li's spiritual world, connecting with her spiritual body, and guiding her on how to condense spiritual energy nodes.

The second one is Malone.

As a fellow player, Ma Long wasn't particularly familiar with Li Zheng, but he knew in his heart that the other party wouldn't harm him, so he endured the discomfort and relaxed his mind and body to accept Li Zheng's mental power into his spiritual world.

The third is Feng Yue, who regards Li Zheng as his guide and trusts him greatly.

After only a few instinctive resistances, I let my guard down.

Surprisingly, Li Zheng had expected Dan Fenglai to be the most resistant, but she turned out to be the third person to accept him, and his spiritual power quickly entered her spiritual world. Finally, it was An'an from the Suffering Clan.

This girl, who appears to be completely obedient to Li Zheng, has never truly trusted him in her heart. At this moment, she is consciously resisting the mental power that Li Zheng is probing into her mind.

Li Zheng frowned, dispersed that portion of his spiritual energy, and stopped paying attention to her, instead focusing on instructing the other four.

The four of them have very interesting inner worlds.

Mo Li's spiritual world presents two distinct landscapes.

One half is a dimly lit cave environment, with a large grass mat made of a certain type of dry grass in the cave; the other half is a small space at the entrance of the 902 block portal, with tables, chairs and snacks placed there.

It is evident that these two places hold many precious memories for Mo Li.

Li Zheng guided her to successfully condense a spiritual energy node. Once the node was formed, it slowly floated up and finally embedded itself in the very center of the intersection of the two environments, shining brightly like a luminous pearl.

Ma Long's mental world is a training ground similar to a military camp, with many of the equipment that Li Zheng had seen on television.

When Li Zheng looked up, he found that the sky above Ma Long's mental world was a bright red, dotted with a few golden stars.

Beside the stars, there was a crescent moon shaped like a sickle.

Ma Long's spiritual body was slightly weaker, and the spiritual energy node he condensed was only the size of a grain of rice. It fell into the bright red sky and merged into the brightest star in it, which was very inconspicuous.

Just like his obsession, Feng Yue had completely replicated a medium-sized gravity chamber, with himself standing in the very center of the gravity field.

Unlike others, the spiritual energy node he condensed would not rise into the air; instead, it floated to the control room on the other side and landed on the materialized control panels, resembling an operation button, which looked rather strange.

Danfeng's spiritual world is an ancient castle, decorated in a very girly style, with pink decorations everywhere, and a soft, large bed filled with all kinds of dolls and toys.

Danfeng's spirit body sat leaning against the edge of the large bed, hugging her knees, her gentle and weak demeanor a stark contrast to her own willful personality.

"What are you doing sitting here?" Li Zheng asked, frowning. "Generally speaking, a spiritual body should occupy the very center of the spiritual world to be considered normal. You've gone astray, which means you have some problems with your mental state..."

"You're the one who's sick!" Dan Fenglai curled up like an injured cat, but still raised her claws and showed a tough side to Li Zheng.

Li Zheng looked at her for a while and then smiled gently: "So that's how it is. You're actually a tsundere."

"You're the arrogant one!" Dan Fenglai's current aggressive behavior seemed strangely cute to Li Zheng.

Li Zheng pointed to her brow and said, "Don't panic. Carefully feel the simulated scene I'm giving you. In a moment, you will condense your spiritual energy nodes in this way."

Dan Fenglai paused for a moment, then became captivated by the simulated images appearing in his mind, immersing himself in them.

Outside, Mo Li and Ma Long opened their eyes after condensing their first spiritual energy node.

Mo Li saw that An An was already standing to the side, her eyes flickered, but she didn't say anything.

She could tell at a glance that An'an had not successfully condensed a spiritual energy node.

This also shows that An'an was the only one who resisted Li Zheng and did not allow him to enter her spiritual world.
