Chapter 237 Forced separation of illusions, the importance of dual cultivation of life
Illusions? Or is it a sign of cuteness?
Su Fan only had time to think of this question before he felt a strong sense of dizziness sweeping over him.
Mental erosion.
Stronger than before.
Many terrifying and colorful illusions began to flash before Su Fan's eyes.
Even he cannot fully see these illusions. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are completely chaotic light sources flashing rapidly.
In my ears, the regular sound of tides gradually amplified. At the same time, there was some movement on the sea surface shrouded in gray mist.
Some "being" is coming.
Is it the body? Or is this just a prelude?
But at this moment, Su Fan could no longer care about these external developments.
He could feel that his senses were being distorted and polluted, and he tried to resist, but could not completely contain it.
If this continues, Su Fan may have suffered heavy losses before the dragon in the sea officially emerges.
He had a splitting headache, but despite the great fear and erosion, he forced his head up, hoping to see the changes in the ocean!
It was at this time that the twisted and expanding dialog box appeared in Su Fan's mind.
Are the system dialog boxes also distorted?
No...no...it's because the mental erosion has deepened.
[Warning...]
[By touching books with strange powers, you are pulled into some unspeakable fantasy. 】
【You came into premature contact with items left behind by high-level mysterious beings, which had an impact on your spirit and soul. 】
[The situation is urgent and forced separation is being carried out immediately. 】
The moment after the dialog box appeared, all the scenes in front of him disappeared.
The ocean, gray fog, and decaying pier that we saw before have turned back into floor tiles and bookshelves.
Su Fan took a few deep breaths and felt that his spirit gradually stabilized before he raised his head again.
A stream of warm blood flowed out from the tip of his nose. Su Fan raised his hand to wipe it away, and saw a touch of bright red when he raised his hand.
From beginning to end, he never saw the true face of the source of the power of books.
Just by being pulled into the illusion, the intensity of the mental erosion increases exponentially.
So much so that the system appeared and forcibly interfered.
It was right to let the Winchester brothers leave first.
If they are involved, there is no other possibility except losing their minds and going completely crazy.
[High-level mysterious existence...]
The key words in the system description emerged in Su Fan's mind.
Is it a so-called high-dimensional creature?
In the past, it was popular among people on the Internet to use dimensionality reduction strikes to describe the unsuspicious and despairing gap between the two sides.
High-dimensional creatures attack low-dimensional creatures, and the latter have almost no ability to fight back.
After Su Fan thought for a moment, he shook his head.
It is impossible for high-dimensional creatures to directly descend into low-latitude space.
To say that you have no power to fight back is to increase the enemy's prestige and destroy your own ambition.
As long as high-dimensional existence appears in low latitudes, it means self-degradation.
As long as the health bar is up, there is always a way to defeat it.
But obviously, the other party's current level is much higher than Su Fan.
Not to mention face-to-face competition, I am afraid that if the long blood bar is even slightly closer, Su Fanchuang will vomit blood.
Thanks to the systematic forced intervention, the other party didn't seem to notice Su Fan's existence.
He had a hunch that if he was watched by a being emerging from the sea, he would definitely be targeted by the other party. "At least there is still time to practice slowly and improve your strength."
Thinking of this, Su Fan couldn't help but sigh.
What the hell is this place...
The perverted murderous family that I randomly encountered existed in the study.
Su Fan weighed the book in his hand, wrapped it in paper, turned and left the room.
——
After returning to the antique shop, Su Fan did not immediately start practicing, but began to restore his slightly polluted spirit.
It is worth mentioning that when the book was brought back, the female astrologer ghost showed great hostility and panic.
If Su Fan hadn't still held her soul contract, he might have fled to an unknown place.
This situation gradually improved after Su Fan used the talisman to seal the book.
During the days when Su Fan was away, Ron kept the antique shop in order, and even taught himself about appraisals in his spare time.
The two or three scattered antiques recovered were not judged wrong.
It was only after seeing the other party's excellent performance that Su Fan suddenly remembered that the other party was a top student at Stanford University and also had an extremely difficult doctorate in medicine.
Academic qualifications do not necessarily represent ability, but in most cases it can represent a person's learning efficiency and the speed of mastering knowledge.
So good that Su Fan almost wanted to keep him as a long-term employee of the antique shop.
However, I just stopped thinking about it.
News came from New Orleans that there was an important meeting within the Mayfair family that required the head of the family to attend in person.
Ron had no choice but to say goodbye to Su Fan and boarded a private plane to New Orleans.
After leaving this antique store, she became the head of a multi-billion dollar family again.
Su Fan, who stayed in the store, also felt a little cold, but soon he sorted out his mood and devoted himself to his daily practice.
After he left, Su Fan's life got back on track again.
It’s just that the focus of practice is slightly different than before.
The last mental attack incident made Su Fan realize his shortcomings in xinxing.
In the face of high-level mental interference, this weakness is fully exposed.
So I changed my previous practice method which only focused on cultivation.
Reciting the Calming Mantra morning and evening increases the amount of homework related to the state of mind every day.
After starting, Su Fan realized how wise this decision was.
Many sages such as Huang Lao Liezhuang have emphasized the importance of dual cultivation of life and life, and comprehensive cultivation of body and spirit to achieve the highest state of perfection.
This idea has deeply influenced Chinese culture and many myths and legends.
In his previous life, Su Fan could always see many foreign literature and film and television works, describing and exploring the impact of immortality on people.
Most of the content is about the sadness of the lifespan theory, and the fact that the protagonist cannot bear the weight of a long lifespan and wants to die when he has had enough, or that his humanity has been wiped out over the long years and his mind has become twisted and insensitive.
But what’s interesting is that in various Chinese myths, we have never heard of the existence of cultivating the great road, living as long as heaven, and the soul will change in a bad direction.
Su Fan thought that part of the reason was that both those who made up myths and legends and those who listened to these stories assumed that those who obtained the fairy fruit must have a matching character.
As time goes by, Su Fan can gradually feel the changes in himself.
The connection between many magical powers and skills is more arbitrary, and at the same time, the application is more nuanced.
The trauma to Su Fan's soul caused by the illusion of the book was completely healed within half a month.
Of course, Su Fan has not fallen behind in his own realm and physical training.
While recuperating from his injuries, Sheriff Dyson came to visit and talked to Su Fan about the recent developments in the high-level political circles in Los Angeles.
The son of a certain city councilor was exposed by the media as having committed serious crimes against humanity.
The situation was not buried as usual, but intensified.
The congressman was dismissed, his son was imprisoned, and the congressman's wife seemed to have gone crazy due to the drastic change. In the end, she was involved in a serious car accident while driving and died on the spot.
