Luo Nan did not pay attention to Qin Yikun's expression. He rode the elevator up, his mind still recalling what he had learned from the previous exchange.
He had benefited greatly from the exchange with Wan Ta. That person's understanding of order, especially the difference in the two's methods of achieving order, was described to perfection. It was displayed without restraint.
Just as Wan Ta had said, Luo Nan's method of achieving order was to change his own body, including the existences of the plants and trees around him. He formed a materialized space. There was nothing else besides these. Therefore, even though he was communicating on the mental plane, he was using material waves to influence the mental plane. He was not using soul strength.
This was even more material than fleshly body strengthening. This was the fundamental reason why his Order called it creation.
As for the so-called Creator, that was an overinterpretation.
But from Luo Nan's perspective, Wan Ta's law of creation was more like a mirror. It reflected his own understanding and practice of order.
The current effect of Luo Nan's Formatting Theory was a kind of restraint on the mental willpower. It gradually moved from the mental plane to the material plane. In a certain sense, this kind of restraint was the most thorough. But because of the extreme complexity of the mental plane, there were times when one would pay attention to the beginning and forget about the end.
In comparison, the specific rituals and methods of communication between them were just minor details.
"Mr. Luo?"
"Ah, we're here."
Luo Nan came back to his senses. He saw that the elevator door was already open. He patted his head, said good night to Qin Yikun, and returned to his room. He hastily washed his face and lay down on the bed. He closed his eyes and let his thoughts enter a more pressing track.
He did not forget that the reason he had interrupted the exchange was because there were more important things he needed to do.
Luo Nan's consciousness followed the internal connection of the sealed system. It passed through the greatly warped mental curtain and cut into the depths of the mental plane. Suddenly, a rolling mist spread out before his eyes. It was like the boiling of the ocean, roaring and turbulent.
"Tsk, I knew that this method wasn't reliable!"
After confirming the current situation, Luo Nan calmed down a bit. He went into an out-of-body state in his bedroom, hooked up the external neuron, and shot out through a crack in the window into the night sky.
Luo Nan's soul body arrived ten kilometers away in the wetland jungle of Acumen College in the blink of an eye. He locked onto the building of Gear and flew down.
Another ten seconds passed, and Luo Nan entered the cloud world.
The scene from the Wraith Sign's perspective just now was happening in front of him in an even more frenzied manner. Amidst the suddenly amplified noise, a huge amount of clouds and ice crystals swept past like an uncontrollable tsunami, displaying the worst side of the Cloud World.
Luo Nan floated in the air, his soul cloak fluttering and swirling. He continued to interfere with the surrounding material world. This could be considered a brief warm-up.
Luo Nan had already locked onto his target at this time. It was within the turbulent clouds twenty kilometers away. A Mushed Mouth Ape flew as fast as lightning, but it also showed rare signs of panic and pain. It let out an ear-piercing screech as it flew at high speed. Its body kept twisting as it tried to shake off the bindings on its body.
As for the binding, it was the Wraith Sign.
"It's only been a few days and you've already created such a scene for me!" Luo Nan was complaining, but he was actually quite excited in his heart.
Ever since he discovered and entered the Cloud World, he had always been tossing and turning, searching in the thick clouds, playing hide-and-seek with those Mushed Mouth Apes, but this world was really too big and too strange.
He didn't find any traces left behind by his parents. He also didn't find Snake Tongue's shadow. There was no way for Luo Nan to be satisfied with this sort of progress.
Things finally changed for the better when the Wraith Sign entered... Even though this was the result of the fellow not doing proper work.
The Mushed Mouth Ape that lived in the Cloud World was an extremely terrifying predator, and the Wraith Sign was one as well. The Wraith Sign was able to coexist peacefully with the Mushed Mouth Apes for the past ten days under Luo Nan's constraints.
But as Luo Nan's energy was constantly diverted by other matters, this fellow finally began to run wild.
Four days ago, the Wraith Sign used its powerful hunting instincts to silently lock onto this Mushed Mouth Ape. It used the Polar Domain to use an inconceivable method of infiltration to unwittingly lock onto the lifeline of this Mushed Mouth Ape. Then it exerted its strength today.
The Wraith Sign's originally incorporeal body had already become indistinct and visible due to it being infinitely close to the material plane. Most of its body sunk into the back of the Mushed Mouth Ape. It greedily extracted the energy and blood of the Mushed Mouth Ape, transforming it into the nutrients it needed.
Without a doubt, this marathon hunt had reached its end. The Wraith Sign bit into the throat of its prey and began to reap the harvest.
But like all nature documentaries, this primitive and wild hunting operation had a very high probability of failure. Since the Mushed Mouth Ape's energy and blood was extremely vigorous, the transformation required a certain amount of time. The Wraith Sign seemed to be in control of everything right now, but it was actually at its weakest. It was infinitely close to the material plane, which meant that normal methods could strike it.
The Wraith Sign was alive and well right now because it had effective control over the prey beneath it. But this control was unable to affect the other Mushed Mouth Apes.
Right now, the prey beneath it shrieked in pain and the turbulence brought about by its high-speed flight. The other Mushed Mouth Apes had already received the relevant information. Even though they didn't have any kinship with each other, a few nearby Mushed Mouth Apes gathered over out of curiosity.
The Mushed Mouth Ape's attack methods could cover the material plane and the mental plane at the same time. It could even blast all the way to the abyssal region on the mental plane. Once these Mushed Mouth Apes discovered the target and lent a helping hand, the Wraith Sign would become a living target.
Luo Nan needed to do something …. Even though what he could do was very limited.
The scarcity of options made it easier for him to make a judgment.
He pondered for a few seconds, and his floating soul body suddenly sped up. The strength of his soul cloak slapping against the mist and ice crystals increased to the highest level. Rustling sounds rang out, and the interference force on the material plane was completely unleashed. At the same time, he expanded the range of his mental senses to the limit. One by one, he locked onto the Mushed Mouth Apes that surged over from all directions. It didn't matter what direction or distance they came from. As long as they were within the range of his senses, Luo Nan sent out a mental attack.
The radius of Luo Nan's senses was roughly 25 kilometers. But when faced with a terrifying hunter like the Mushed Mouth Ape, the fragrance emitted by the soul body had to be at least five times the distance.
The Mushed Mouth Ape was an existence that was essentially driven by instinct. They were practically unrestrained by social organizations. Between companions and food, what would they choose?
Of course, it would be food!
