Chapter 441 Dream Practice
At the same time, outside Lingyuan Island, somewhere under the sea.
In an underwater area heavily covered by seaweed and terrain, strict restrictions shone with a cold light.
In one of the two caves shrouded by the ban, the huge incense burner was shining with burning fire, and the faint fragrance rose from it like a circling white bird, filling the entire room.
These are the spirit-condensing incense and the dream-enhancing incense, specially used for practicing dreaming.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Chen, who was lying on the jade bed, slowly opened his eyes under the light of the soul lamp in the center of the room.
His pupils dilated at first, and he looked a little confused, then he realized something, held up his hands, and sat up from the bed.
Lin Chen looked at the surrounding environment, especially the reaction of the soul lamp in the center of the room, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems we can't continue like this..."
Lin Chen rubbed his eyebrows, looking a little tired.
In less than three days, in order to study the practice of dreams, he experienced falling into and waking up from dreams countless times, and he was almost reaching his limit.
If it weren't for the existence of the soul lamp and the use of the same breath soul spell to anchor reality, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to tell whether the reality in front of him is reality or a dream.
After all, the most important thing about dream practice is to anchor self-cognition, but if you frequently jump back and forth between dreams and reality in a short period of time, it may cause irreparable damage to the individual's cognition.
By then, if reality and illusion have been deceived and confused, the silence and death of consciousness may not be that far away.
However, he paid such a high price to finally sort out and verify the memory of the dream practice in the golden elixir of the Demon Sect.
"But what Jean didn't expect is that dream cultivation seems to be a completely different path from refining qi and cultivating immortality. No wonder the ancient monks were helpless about it, because the essence of dreams has nothing to do with spiritual energy..."
Through this period of research and verification, Lin Chen finally discovered why the Heaven-Shaking Universe Formation left by the ancient monks could not control the dream.
Because the former is based on the essence of aura, but the essence of dreams has nothing to do with aura.
As for what it was related to, Lin Chen didn't know, but he had a vague guess that it should be the knowledge of intelligent life.
But this is not what he can explore now. The key he cares about now should be the practice of dreams!
In this world, the so-called dream practitioners are actually a group of people who often deal with dreams!
Dreams are the most magical things. Why can people dream?
Why are the subconscious minds of all living beings and the projection of souls
Forming a boundless dream that stretches from ancient times to the present?
Why do fragments of the future appear in dreams? Or even a different world?
What is the nature of dreams? What is the purpose of His existence?
These are the problems that dream practitioners strive to solve.
And once you realize that you are dreaming and take control of your sovereignty, you are omnipotent in the dream!
Although this kind of topic seems illusory, Lin Chen knows the essence of the dream master's practice.
Psychoactive substances! Consciousness affects reality!
To describe it in four simple words, it is——
Refining falsehood into reality!
Dream practitioners are roughly divided into three types based on the depth of their dreams.
The depth of dreams is a theory agreed upon by both the Nanhua Dream Sect and the Demon Sect.
In their view, dreams are mainly divided into three major levels: shallow level, deep level and lost level.
Shallow dreams are mainly born from individual consciousness and memory. As long as you realize that you are dreaming, you can reversely control the dream.
It can be said that shallow dreams are the gathering place of memory and cognition of intelligent beings, and it is also a safe place for them to protect themselves in dreams.
But if you go deeper into the dream, you will touch the deep memories, even the memories left by countless ancestors on this land in the blood of future generations. This is the so-called deep dream.
The deep dreamland is also the subconscious sea of a collective, a region, or a group, and is the true gathering place for the souls of all living beings.
The key to hiding from the Heaven-shaking Universe Formation and distorting the individual databases within it lies here.
Further down, you will reach the lost layer, and it may be difficult to tell whether what you are seeing is a dream or reality, and even the past and future will be distorted in this area.
This is a truly twisted and chaotic place, with weird illusions, future worlds, twisted areas, and even another legendary world. It can be called a famous dangerous place in the world.
As for the level below the lost level, it is truly a restricted area.
According to the speculations of the top beings of the Demon Sect, it was a place where there were no rules, or it could be said to be chaotic.
In that place, big and small, light and heavy, light and dark...all an individual's understanding of the world can be distorted and violated, and the soul of any existence will be confused as soon as it arrives there.
If the low-level logic of the world is orderly, and one plus one equals two, then below the level of confusion, this rule will be completely tampered with, causing unimaginable horror.
Therefore, since ancient times, any monks who have reached the lost layer have never come back. Even the Nanhua Dream Sect and the Demon Sect dare not get involved.
"As for the practice of dreams, according to the research of Nanhua Dream Sect and Tianmo Sect, according to the level and depth of dreams, there are roughly three types!"
One is the dreamer of shallow dreams!
The dreamer can artificially create a dream that is under his complete control based on his own knowledge and cognition.
The Utopia of the Heavenly Demon Sect and the human brain computer array dream created by the Taoist sect when he was spreading the inner alchemy method in the past are all based on this principle.
Based on your own cognition, create a dream similar to reality!
The second one is a sleepwalker in a deep dream. Of course, among the Demon Sect, they are also called nightmares or inner demons!
They can walk in the sea of minds of all living beings, use memory, cognition, or images related to them as a rocker to descend into the soul of an individual, thereby completing the tampering of cognition and being a slave to the soul!
Such existences are very terrifying. Not only can they invade the memories of others and are difficult to resist, their existence form cannot be anchored. Even if they are killed, they can be reborn in the memories of others.
It can be said that unless such beings have the supreme killing sword or possess terrifying divine soul attainments, once they have mastered it, even if they are only at the golden elixir level, the God-Transforming Heavenly Lord will not be able to completely kill them!
However, such an existence is very difficult to achieve. In the other party's memory, there are only a handful of people from the Demon Sect who can achieve this path.
Finally, there is the Ruler of Dreams in the Lost Layer of Dreams, also known as the Dream Fairy and the Heavenly Demon!
Beings who can do this can peek into the past and future in dreams, distort the definition of reality and illusion, and tamper with the laws of reality!
The longevity of the monks who have even achieved this step far exceeds that of other gods. No, to be precise, as long as their cognition can be maintained, they can continue to exist in the dream, which is comparable to A different kind of longevity!
"Dream makers, sleepwalkers, and the legendary dream immortals and demons, should they be said to have dreams about the power of the upper world? They actually have a path to immortality that is different from spiritual cultivation..." Lin Chen learned after learning After these news, I couldn't help but sigh.
But then he seemed to think of something again, and couldn't help but sigh softly:
"But having said that, people like the Mengxian of the Nanhua Dream Sect can actually fall into dreams. Should we say that those who are really good at swimming die from drowning?"
"However, the Heavenly Demon Sect Jindan said that the Nanhua Dream Sect was trapped in the [End World] in the dream world and the [End World of Dharma] in Guixu. Where are these two places? They actually have such power and can capture a whole world. The God-Transforming Heavenly Lord who is famous for walking the path of dreams..."
Out of curiosity, Lin Chen continued to look through the other party's memory and checked for information related to the two.
However, the next moment, a look of deep shock mixed with disbelief appeared on his face:
"How is this possible?! Why is the aura of this end world exactly the same as the aura of the snow in my dream that I got when I broke through the golden elixir?!"
