#1031 - Break the illusion! Kill with mental power!
"Jingming, Jingming, wake up quickly!
You have to report to the company today!"
Accompanied by a violent shaking, Xu Jingming slowly woke up from his sleep.
Scanning his surroundings, he saw a spacious living room.
The one who woke him up was a young man with short hair.
"Where am I..." Xu Jingming frowned.
"What's wrong? Still not awake?"
The short-haired youth said with a smile, then scratched his head apologetically:
"It's our fault, we made too much noise last night, we finished several cases of beer!
But we don't have time to spare, we have to report to the company today.
It wasn't easy to graduate with a master's degree and find a good job. It would be terrible if you were late on your first day."
As he spoke, the short-haired youth reached out to pull Xu Jingming.
But Xu Jingming just stood there, unmoving.
"Jingming, what's wrong?" The short-haired youth looked over in confusion.
"The illusion is very realistic, but unfortunately, it can't fool me."
Xu Jingming just looked at him quietly.
The next moment,
the short-haired youth disappeared like a bubble.
Immediately afterward, the entire space collapsed with a bang!
Rumble!!!
The youth, the living room, the scattered beer bottles, everything disappeared.
Replaced by violent mental power like thunder.
All the mental power was crowded together, like a turbulent sea.
And on this sea, stood an ancient tower.
At this time, this ancient tower was emitting a faint glow, and a powerful defense guarded the entire sea of spirit.
This was in Xu Jingming's sea of consciousness!
"I didn't expect to have the Soul Suppressing Tower and a guardian spirit.
I was still briefly dragged into an illusion by a void creature, and it even returned to the memory scene of my previous life..."
The short-haired youth just now was named Wang Hao, and he was Xu Jingming's roommate in his previous life.
If he hadn't transmigrated, he should have joined the same company as Wang Hao.
"These void creatures are indeed terrifying.
Not only can they find the weak points in my consciousness, but they can also extend them.
However, illusions are just illusions after all.
My mental power is strong enough to see through it at a glance."
Whoosh—
Xu Jingming's consciousness left the sea of consciousness, and he suddenly opened his eyes!
"S-rank, you broke free from the illusion? Are you not injured?"
The guardian, Eva, was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise.
There was no other way.
Xu Jingming was too fast.
From falling into the illusion to breaking free, the whole process took less than a second!
"I'm fine, how is Teacher Su?"
Xu Jingming turned to look at Su Qingli.
She was still stiff in place, her eyes blank.
"Teacher Su is still in the illusion, I can't wake her up," Eva replied quickly.
"Once you fall into an illusion, it's difficult to wake up with someone else's help unless you break it yourself.
If you want to wake up Teacher Su, you can only solve the source of the illusion."
Whoosh—
Mental power surged out, Xu Jingming activated his mind web and looked forward.
Then he 'saw' the group of void creatures again.
Thousands of void creatures had already left the red thunderball and were flying towards this side.
But their flying speed was only twice the speed of sound, and they were still more than a kilometer away from here.
"It's a good thing they haven't flown over yet, otherwise it would be troublesome if our mental power was devoured."
Eva, who had received the mental power sharing screen, patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
After the void creatures devour mental power, a permanent gap will appear in the ability user's sea of consciousness.
It is difficult to recover in the later stage, and can only be slowly worn away over time.
Even the smallest gap in the sea of consciousness takes several years to recover.
"The essence of void creatures is actually an aggregate of mental power, and lightning abilities have extremely limited lethality against them.
I shouldn't have used the Thunder Dragon Technique just now, I should have used mental attack combat skills..."
Xu Jingming quickly searched his memory.
If it were other elemental ability users, it would be more difficult than ascending to the sky to find a mental attack combat skill.
But he is not ordinary.
Among the mental master inheritances he had obtained, there were a large number of such combat skills!
"Found it!"
Xu Jingming was overjoyed and directly chose to add points!
Ability points -12,000
Mental Storm → Mental Storm (Beginner)!
The moment the points were added, the release method of this combat skill immediately appeared in Xu Jingming's mind, as if he had practiced it thousands of times!
[Mental Storm (S-level): Use mental power to form a storm, destroy the opponent's mental power, and destroy the sea of consciousness!]
This is just an S-level combat skill, but in Xu Jingming's opinion, its power is already enough.
"Unlike elemental combat skills, mental combat skills only need to mobilize mental power and do not require ability cooperation.
From this point of view alone, the release of mental combat skills is much simpler than elemental combat skills."
Whoosh—
A vast amount of mental power, like a sea, poured out from Xu Jingming's sea of consciousness, and then began to operate according to the operating trajectory of the mental storm.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!!!
In just an instant, the vast mental power condensed into a mental storm with a height of hundreds of meters!
This mental storm was invisible to the naked eye.
But even so, one could still feel the earth-shattering power emanating from this mental storm.
"Go!"
With a wave of his right hand, the mental storm howled and crashed into the void creatures in front!
Ah!!!
The familiar mental screams rang out from the mouths of thousands of void creatures.
But for Xu Jingming, who had multiple mental protection methods, it was useless at all, and the mental storm did not waver in the slightest.
Rumble!!
The mental storm quickly collided with the void creatures.
The mental storm was like a meat grinder running at full power, and almost effortlessly shredded the void creatures one by one.
"The mental power of a void creature is about the same as that of an eighth-level grandmaster.
There are more than a thousand here, and the combined mental power intensity is a little stronger than a ninth-level lower-ranked magic saint.
It can make Teacher Su fall for it, but it can't make me fall for it."
Xu Jingming stared closely at the mental storm in front.
In his mental perception, the number of void creatures was rapidly decreasing.
As the number of void creatures decreased and the overall mental power intensity decreased, it became even more difficult to resist the mental storm.
Entering a vicious cycle of continuous weakening.
In just over ten seconds, most of the void creatures had been completely eliminated.
But Xu Jingming was still not at ease and released another mental storm before he was completely relieved.
At this time, in his perception, there were no void creatures in the space ahead.
But there were some strange liquids.
This liquid was completely transparent, and if it weren't for mental perception, it would be impossible to detect.
"What is this thing? The remains of the void creatures after death?" Xu Jingming's expression was puzzled.
