Once again, Luo Nan discovered that his train of thought had run too far. What he wanted to do at first was just to observe the heavily chained crow.
But who would have thought that this toy would undergo a Phaseless Transformation the moment he made contact with it? It transformed into an incorporeal power that enveloped the living starry sky. It naturally guided him to the level of 'My heart's a prison'. The range expanded in an instant, and the relevant connections became even more complicated. Most people would not be able to separate themselves.
Looking at the effects of the Self-Format on the living starry sky, how could one clearly distinguish between inside and outside?
Right now, only the core of the dense cluster of stars still maintained the outline of the Self-Format. It could correspond with the classical visualization diagram.
As for the Societal Format, the Tetrahedron was already old news. This toy could be said to encompass the entire living starry sky. In any case, from the concept of Formatting Theory, the Societal Format was centered around the self. It formed a social structure that could be used by the self. There was no problem with this judgment, given the strength of the current distortion of the living starry sky.
Just these two points encompassed everything that Luo Nan could currently observe with clairvoyance. Even so, there was still no place for the Heaven and Earth Format!
If Luo Nan still wanted to observe the heavily chained crow in this situation, he would be under the suspicion of not turning back until he hit a brick wall. Luo Nan pondered that he could set a slightly broader target for his observation.
He still remembered that half a month ago, he had received Gym Master Xiu's guidance in the daoguan. He had entered a deep meditative state and had seen the internal structure of the Self-Format. He only remembered that the chains were crisscrossing, dense like a spiderweb, mysterious and unfathomable. Would such a situation change after the heavily chained crow mutated and became illusory?
Luo Nan was even more afraid that he would do something else with this thought. He no longer hesitated, and the light of the heart lantern changed direction. This time, his telepathic thoughts successfully penetrated the dense cluster of stars. They collided head-on with the brilliant and powerful light that was like the radiance of a myriad of stars.
Fortunately, such a powerful light only flashed on the mental plane.
The heart lantern of the eyes orifice swayed slightly, automatically adjusting its interference strength and changing the coupling method. This wave of powerful light dissipated into nothingness.
Luo Nan had once heard Gym Master Xiu say that the heart lantern of the eyes orifice was the first of the nine orifices and six roots in the act of introspection. After all, everyone was used to using their eyes to observe. Viewing the scenery and taking images was the most suitable habit.
Especially since Luo Nan had mixed in the marvelous coupling effect. The mental plane and the material plane interfered effectively. It was like a gentle breeze and faint light. No matter how deep and indistinct the land was, it could be seen. It could be touched. The corresponding information was much more abundant. Through the effective integration of the consciousness, Luo Nan felt as if he was immersed in the scene.
At this moment, it was as if Luo Nan had crashed into the center of a galaxy. It was as if he was surrounded by the twinkling stars of a high-density stellar group. It seemed to be near yet far, and it surrounded him from all directions. On the other hand, it was like he'd encountered an enormous black hole at the forefront of his thoughts. It was dark and deep, and it intended to completely swallow his mind.
It was indeed different from the last deep meditation experience.
Luo Nan's mind went straight to the depths of the black hole. The heart lantern of the eyes orifice pierced through the gloom, illuminating the deep space below.
"Wow, it's not easy." Luo Nan was a bit surprised. The clairvoyant scene before his eyes overlapped with the scene in his memories to a large extent.
Formatting Theory's star atlas transformation was so intense, but the core area of the Self-Format still maintained its basic structure. It manifested as a bottomless pit of deep space. Endless dark chains crisscrossed and weaved together, forming a complex and dense structure.
Of course, the details had changed quite a bit.
The last time Luo Nan's thoughts entered, the space was dark and misty. It was as if it were a black prison constructed by a demonic god. All hope was trapped, and it possessed an unshakable dignity of deep silence. Back then, he had gathered all the vital energy in his body with great difficulty. He had wanted to feed the soul flame in the depths of the prison, but it had been sucked dry by the great net of chains. In the end, only a few pitiful strands remained, and they trickled down.
This was why Gym Master Xiu commented that Luo Nan couldn't use his skills on himself. Gym Master Xiu even said that Luo Nan could absorb external techniques. This was what Gym Master Xiu meant.
However, many days had passed, and the situation was vastly different. Luo Nan had built his foundation through internal refinement. He had achieved success in the eyes orifice, and he had comprehended the coupling technique. The God Gear and Body Gear meshed and revolved, and the interference between the mental and material planes deepened layer by layer …. Every step of progress was clear and real.
Luo Nan could see that the stability of the deep space seemed to be wavering a bit. From time to time, subtle explosions would transmit through, causing the tens of thousands of chains to rattle. Upon closer inspection, one could see some structural changes and reorganization.
If one were to insist on saying that these unforeseen events were affected by the star atlas transformation, then it would be very hard to find a similar explanation for the increase in brightness and temperature of the deep Black Prison.
The heart lantern of the eyes orifice took a look within itself. Luo Nan's thoughts did not need to dive too deep. He could clearly see the halo of light at the bottom layer through the many layers of chain structure. There was also a bit of heat that rose up, closely intersecting with the vital energy that constantly seeped in.
Looking down a bit further, the soul flame could be seen within the net of chains. It was extremely lively. Especially when the beam of light from the heart lantern fell down. The energies of the two sides connected, and the soul flame became a bit crazed. It exploded and ignited, and the tail of flames soared. It broke through the lowest layer of the net of chains and was about to burn to the middle section.
Luo Nan could vaguely see that the lowest layer of chains had broken. Half of the chain hung down from the tightly woven net of chains. It lay low by the side of the soul flame, receiving an even more intense calcination. There was a great sign of mutation.
Wonderful! Truly wonderful!
Luo Nan already had a general confirmation. If the star atlas transformation of the Format Pyramid was said to be the embodiment of Formatting Theory's external influence and method of use, then this Black Prison was the embodiment of his level of control and manipulation over Formatting Theory.
In the past, he could only be said to be a user of Formatting Theory. He was like a driver, a jailer. He had to act strictly according to the rules drawn by Formatting Theory.
But the current situation was clearly reflected. No matter what sort of changes the star atlas transformation of the Format Pyramid brought, Formatting Theory, this external technique, was suppressing Luo Nan's core strength. It was shaking, and Luo Nan began to obtain more and more autonomy.
His progress was without a doubt.
Luo Nan couldn't help but let his imagination run wild. What would happen if the soul flame completely covered this Dark Prison, completely incinerating these thousands upon thousands of dark chains? What sort of situation would that be!
Luo Nan let out a long breath. He felt that he had gained a great deal, so he temporarily stopped his internal clairvoyance. He drew a perfect end to today's closed-door training.
It was already late. His aunt and uncle would probably be back soon. It would not be good to hole up in his room any longer.
Luo Nan's body fell back, and he stretched his back on the bed. He moved his muscles and bones a bit, relieving the strain of sitting for a long time. But a certain feeling collided with his mind just as he unfolded his arms. It caused his body to freeze on the spot.
His soul strength seemed to have grown again …. It was explosive!
