"Mortals aren't allowed to observe it." The Chaos Codex smiled. "However … I'm fascinated by your potential. I can see a miraculous possibility in you … a possibility for myself … So, I can let you have a look."
The Chaos Codex slowly twisted its body and crawled around Lu Sheng.
"There's never been a second Chaos Core in this world. Those who can see it with their own eyes are the lucky ones. Those who have the ability to possess it are the true heroes and legends …"
She clasped her hands together and then opened them slowly.
It was as if she was holding a ball of light in her palms. It was a pulsating, purplish-black circular halo.
There were many silver light spots flowing in the halo. The countless light spots gathered together like the Milky Way, gathering toward the center.
"So beautiful …" Lu Sheng praised. This was a heartfelt exclamation.
In his eyes, the halo before him was not flowing with silver light spots. Instead, it was a vast amount of mysterious energy crystals.
There were hundreds of millions of energy crystals. The energy waves emitted by each of them were comparable to the black energy crystals he had used to descend. These countless crystals formed a complicated and beautiful galaxy in the circular halo.
Lu Sheng even felt that this was only the surface of this thing.
"Yes, it's indeed beautiful …" The Chaos Codex nodded. "However, it's already very good that you were able to hold on the moment you saw it and didn't faint …"
"Yes, it's too beautiful …" An infatuated expression appeared on Lu Sheng's face. "Can … Can I touch it?" He was a little hesitant and uneasy.
"No way …" The Chaos Codex shook its head.
"I'll just touch it. Really!" An infatuated expression appeared on Lu Sheng's face. "I'm just a mortal. I'm just an ordinary person. Perhaps this is the peak of my life. It's the most exciting moment of my life. I really … really don't want to have any regrets … "He looked sincere." You know that I'll forget about it when I leave this place. "
The Chaos Codex giggled.
"I really don't know what to do with you, cute child …"
She hesitated.
"Alright, you can touch it lightly. But it must be for a short time. Otherwise, the information in the Chaos Core will overwhelm you. Don't take chances. "
She slowly moved the Chaos Core in her hand closer to Lu Sheng.
The purplish-black halo illuminated Lu Sheng's clothes with a purple hue. He reached out his hand and touched the Chaos Core slowly and tremblingly.
Hiss!!
In that instant, his consciousness was suddenly pulled towards his core by some kind of force, as if it had rushed into his core.
It was as if he had entered a tunnel, a purple tunnel with walls moving at high speed on both sides.
The tunnel twisted and turned, moving faster and faster.
Boom!
He dashed into a vast space filled with purple smoke.
A gigantic meatball covered in snake-like skin floated in the air.
There were countless tentacles and tendrils crawling on the surface of the meatball.
"Accept … Destroy … Eternity …!!"
A loud voice entered Lu Sheng's consciousness.
"Who allowed you to come here? Lowly insects!! "
Following that voice, the surface of the meatball rapidly rotated and converged, forming a large fleshy eye.
"I'm here to pay my respects to the legendary Chaos Core," replied Lu Sheng immediately.
"Get out!!"
"I just want to …"
"Get out!"
The meatball abruptly opened its eyes, and countless purple rays of light blossomed. They were like circles of rotating whorls, and quickly exploded.
Lu Sheng felt his brain explode, as if he was struck by lightning. He felt dizzy.
In that instant, his vision blurred and he regained consciousness.
In front of him was a pitch-black night sky with stars twinkling faintly. Lu Sheng reached out his hand and touched his nostrils. It was filled with blood that kept flowing down.
He was still lying on the grassy slope. In the distance was a pitch-black library. There were no dazzling lights or platinum gilding at all.
Apart from the dim streetlights, there were also occasional students hurrying past in the corner. In the distance, there were also couples hiding in the woods playing games. Even though they were a few hundred meters away, Lu Sheng could hear their breathing clearly with his sharp senses.
He wiped the blood from his nostrils.
"What … What was I doing just now? Why am I having a nosebleed? "Lu Sheng looked confused.
But in the blink of an eye, his main body that was hidden deep inside Jack's soul began to revolve its enormous and terrifying soul.
Vast amounts of memories surged out like a tide.
Lu Sheng's expression darkened. He quickly stood up and walked toward the dormitory.
Along the way, he quickly recalled all the amazing memories that had happened. Especially the scene where he encountered the Chaos Codex.
Not only did he have two more clues about the Level Five and Level Six Codex in his head, but he also had the memory of coming into contact with the Chaos Core and being expelled.
"Bam."
Slamming the door, Lu Sheng lightly flicked the door. The door immediately lit up with a blue light. This was a gadget that he had made himself. It was an alert rune that could be triggered with mental strength. The technique used was part of the book on Gula's Power in the library.
In theory, this rune would take an ordinary Misca student five years to master. It was an advanced application in the field of investigation.
Lu Sheng plopped down on the floor, sucked in a deep breath, and massaged his temples.
Suddenly, he felt something warm flowing out of his eyes and ears. He reached out to touch them, and they were all blood.
"F * ck!" Lu Sheng could not help but curse.
At least 70% of Jack's soul was heavily injured. The core was almost damaged. Once the core was damaged, the entire soul would never be able to recover and would be completely destroyed.
If he was still the original Jack, he would probably spend the rest of his life feeling weak and unable to focus. Even his intelligence would be greatly affected, and he would become an idiot.
"To put it simply, I was almost f * cking turned into an idiot?" Lu Sheng quickly got up and washed the blood off his face. He released air from his pores, and the coagulated blood clots deep in his ears were flushed out.
He recalled the meatball monster inside the Chaos Core and could not help but lick his lips.
"Don't let me find out who you are!" He exhaled. This was the first time he had suffered such a huge loss since he came to this world.
After all, if something happened to Jack, he would have to expose his main body.
Although it had been a long time since he came to this world, and he had adapted to the rules, if his main body was exposed, he could not maintain it forever. He still needed a physical body as a cover.
If that happened, it would not be long before he would be forcefully sent out of this world due to the rules' suppression and rejection. He would have to return to the space-time vortex.
'Fortunately, I didn't return empty-handed this time.'
Lu Sheng calmed himself down. He recalled the memories in his mind. The clues regarding the fifth and sixth codex were clearly marked. On the third level of the library at night.
The last and most important point was the brief contact with the Chaos Core.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk …" Lu Sheng looked at the Mental Energy column at the top of Deep Blue's interface. He could not help but click his tongue in admiration.
'I've only been in contact for a short period of time, and more than 60 million units of Mental Energy have surged into my body … As expected of a mysterious treasure that has existed since the universe was born. The amount of Mental Energy stored in it must've reached a ridiculous level.' Lu Sheng licked his lips greedily again.
He was just worried that he might not have enough Mental Energy. Now, it seemed that his urgent need had been alleviated.
'I've rested enough, and could've increased my strength again. However, my spirit was heavily injured this time. I'll probably need to heal for a few days. Fortunately, compared to what I've gained, this is worth it. '
However, when he thought of the meatball entrenched in the Chaos Core, Lu Sheng could not help but feel gloomy.
That fellow was definitely not an existence inside the Chaos Core. He remembered the last scene he saw. The meatball was still devouring the purple mist around it. The mist was the special power that permeated the Chaos Core.
He had only been in there for a short period of time, but he was already tainted by the purple mist. He had converted more than 60 million units of Mental Energy.
This showed how terrifying the Chaos Core was.
'The Chaos Core … I'll definitely get it!' Lu Sheng clenched his fists. 'But first, I have to find out what that meatball monster is …'
He set his goal, and calmed his mind. He began to mobilize the Earth Qi to nourish the heavily injured Jack's spirit.
Countless Earth Qi surged into Jack's spirit at high speed. It expelled some special residual energy and nourished Jack's spirit.
The night passed just like that.
Early the next morning, Lu Sheng finished his morning class and went to the lakeside to rest and recuperate. He planned to go to the lab in the afternoon to get some more food. He wanted to see if he could find some Void Devil specimens that could speed up the recovery of his spirit.
He had already cultivated the Light and Darkness Codex to the third level. He needed more types of Void Devil flesh for the later stages. He had almost finished all the types of flesh in the lab. Recently, Lu Sheng had been encouraging Professor Dahl to request for more types of flesh. However, it would take time to deliver them.
Walking to the lakeside, Lu Sheng was about to find a spacious place to rest. Suddenly, he glanced around and saw an unknown white object lying in front of him.
"Why are you lying here?"
The one lying on the ground was Yi An. She was curled up into a ball. There were still traces of tears on her face. It was obvious that she had just cried. Her body was wet. It was unknown what she had gone through. She looked very pathetic.
"I … The little girl I … brought with me yesterday … She … She's … dead …" Yi An cried sadly.
"Dead?" Lu Sheng was stunned. That little girl should not have died so easily.
"Yes … She died in my arms … I saw with my own eyes that her stomach seemed to have been kicked by something. Her whole stomach flattened. It was like … like two metal cans were smashed together …" Yi An said sadly.
"She was like a doll. She flew out and hit a big tree … When I rushed over, her stomach and waist were all smashed …"
Speaking up to this point, she could not help but lower her head and cry again.
"…" Lu Sheng already knew why that little girl would die.
If there were no accidents, that little girl might have been kicked to death by him.
