Although some aspects of the process were beyond Chen Luo's expectations, the outcome at least matched Chen Luo imagination.

The rule that one is immune to any force in a bar is indeed above all other rules.

This is why Chen Luo didn't go directly to the Honkai World to construct the visualization method, but instead stayed in the bar and connected to the Honkai World through the Bar Door to visualize it.

Although Chen Luo still had Fried Egg in his hand, Chen Luo still valued his life quite a bit.

"The ending is fine in every way, except... they actually deducted 2000 Primogem from my account. Waaah!" Chen Luo burst into tears upon seeing the reminder he had just remembered.

[Ding! A special force has been detected causing widespread destruction. Please select whether to eliminate it.]

"No!"

Just kidding, how could I possibly throw away such a precious power from the real Imaginary Tree and Sea of Quantum that can promote the development of the Imaginary Tree and Sea of Quantum in the Sea of Consciousness?

[Ding! This special power is extremely precious and we are unwilling to give it up. It is currently being shaped. Please wait.]

Everything was normal up to this point. Chen Luo originally thought that the talent panel might have suddenly had a change of heart, or that since he was currently in a bar, he was definitely not going to get hurt, so it was giving him a free benefit.

[Ding! Shaping complete, 2000 Primogem deducted]

"Damn it! You didn't say you'd deduct Primogem! This isn't just deducting Primogem, it's stealing Primogem! You deducted them without even giving a confirmation option, you're really doing whatever you want!"

It hurts, it hurts so much.

2000 Primogem!

How many Little Loli's Lollipop? Chen Luo couldn't even count them all.

Oh well, Primogem are meant to be used anyway.

But the premise is that the cost is worthwhile.

But Chen Luo still wanted to say: Please tell me clearly before charging next time whether or not you want to be charged.

If Chen Luo had known earlier that there would be a charge, he would have simply thrown away the power gathered from the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum.

LOL, what's so great about this power that it's worth 2000 Primogem?

Indeed, never try to take advantage of someone else.

Otherwise, you might lose everything.

"It's okay, it doesn't hurt, it's okay, it doesn't hurt." Chen Luo took several deep breaths and finally managed to expel the pain.

Okay, think about it carefully, it's only 2000 Primogem. It's just completing two 4-star missions or one 5-star mission, right?

Well, okay, four-star missions are indeed difficult.

To put it another way, isn't it like snatching a little girl's lollipop 400 times?

Oh no, my heart aches even more now.

However, this decision fully proved the accuracy of Chen Luo's decision: if you're going to do something reckless, do it in a bar.

And you should have at least 3,000 Primogem in your hand, not for lottery, but to prevent reckless mistakes.

"So what's the point of this wrecked ship anyway? It's worth 2000 Primogem! Is it covered in gold or something? It can't just be floating in the Sea of Quantum of consciousness, can it?"

"Did I just spend 2000 Primogem to build a nest for the Herrscher of Knowledge?" Chen Luo was a little dumbfounded.

Those Herrscher of Knowledge cannot touch the Sea of Quantum; if they do, they will easily sink to the bottom and will not be able to swim back up.

Therefore, those Herrscher of Knowledge have always been lying on the Imaginary Tree.

Moreover, ever since Chen Luo's sea of consciousness became the territory of the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum, the Herrscher of Knowledge could no longer see what was deep within Chen Luo's consciousness, and could not even build a ship to float on the sea.

"Let me see..." Chen Luo muttered to himself as he took a Little Boat out of his sea of consciousness.

Yes, this ship can be taken out.

[Ship of the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum] (Vehicle): A ship formed by the fusion of the power of a massive Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum, possessing the power to travel freely within the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum.

Furthermore, it is invincible during its journey through the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum, and is protected by the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum.

As a ship, it's perfectly normal for it to float or submerge in any sea area.

(Note ①: Extremely suitable for rescuing people)

(Note ②: The appearance can be changed, but the structure needs to be entered.)

(Note ③: Evolution is possible by drifting in the Sea of Quantum and the Imaginary Tree for an extended period of time.)

"That's it, that's it, that's it? I'm not going to the Sea of Quantum or the Imaginary Tree, so what's the point of this thing? Besides, who are you trying to get me to rescue? Kevin and Seele, you think?"

"Wait a minute! According to general rationality, the world of Honkai Impact 3rd is a real world on the Imaginary Tree, which means... the Honkai World also belongs to the Imaginary Tree?"

This proves that as long as you have this ship, you can do whatever you want in the Honkai World.

A scene suddenly flashed into Chen Luo's mind.

In the Finality War, Kevin and Chijie Little Boat under Chen Luo's command, while Chen Luo sat on the boat. Elysia was responsible for providing a lap pillow, Mobius was responsible for feeding grapes, and Chen Luo himself was giving the middle finger to the Herrscher of the End.

Meanwhile, the Herrscher of the End stood outside the ship, coldly watching Chen Luo.

Yes, Chen Luo just loves seeing that expression on someone's face when they want to hit them but can't.

Chapter 502 Patchouli: MD Chen Luo!

"Although it might be a small loss, this thing is really good." Looking at the Little Boat in his hand, Chen Luo stroked his chin and pondered.

The Little Boat in Chen Luo's hands can evolve; this is an open secret. It can also change shape, not just be a simple wooden Little Boat like this.

However, unlocking the form requires evolution, and the structure also needs to be manually entered.

The current Little Boat is only at level one; it's still just a wooden boat even after being unlocked. You need to upgrade it to expand the plugins.

Moreover, the material of this Little Boat is indeed sturdy enough that there is no need to worry about it capsizing while sailing.

As for how to upgrade... naturally, you can upgrade by soaking in the Imaginary Tree or the Sea of Quantum.

In addition, Honkai Crystal can be used for upgrades, as Honkai is indeed one of the powers belonging to the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum.

It can even be upgraded using elemental power, since the Teyvat Continent is also within the scope of the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum.

Since elemental power can be used for upgrades, it means that Mora can be used for upgrades as well.

Chen Luo suddenly felt as if he was cultivating a special vehicle, since he could use Honkai Crystal and Mora.

"It's just that this name doesn't sound very good. How about we just rename it Hyperion? That way, I'll be the captain of the Hyperion too."

"Hyperion, is it such an inconvenient thing?"

"Wait a minute, if I import the Hyperion's data into this wooden ship, and then use Mora or Honkai Crystal to upgrade the Little Boat and make it evolve in the direction of Hyperion, does that mean I can really build a Hyperion warship that can travel through the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum?"

"I have a feeling that this thing is somewhat similar to the Second Divine Key: Thousand Worlds of Chariots Journey. However, the design of this thing is also quite similar to the Second Divine Key; the aesthetics are equally terrible."

Although this might hurt Vill-V's feelings a little, Vill-V's locomotive was truly eye-opening.

From a generally rational perspective, it's not that Chen Luo alone can't appreciate Vill-V's aesthetic sense, but rather that most people can't appreciate Vill-V.

According to her own words, the locomotive was originally created by a certain "Vill-V" who liked to create genius little pieces of trash.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Luo threw the small wooden Little Boat into his sea of consciousness.

The ship isn't the key right now. Although it cost Chen Luo over 2,000 Primogem, it wasn't a huge expense. The key is how effective the visualization technique is. If it's not effective, Chen Luo will go and fight Patchouli to the death in a bit.

Hmm, never mind, I'll just eat Patchouli- flavored ice cream like crazy in front of Patchouli.

Within Chen Luo's sea of consciousness, the Imaginary Tree swayed wildly, and the Sea of Quantum occasionally rippled, while the Little Boat, though small, remained steadily afloat on the Sea of Quantum.

What's even more surprising is that, on the turbulent Sea of Quantum, only the spot where that Little Boat was located remained calm, as if the place where that Little Boat was located was a pure land.

"My consciousness seems to have been expanded quite a bit by the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum. In terms of volume alone, it should have increased by more than 50%, and the mental energy within it seems to have undergone a baptism, becoming of higher quality."

Previously, Chen Luo had vaguely sensed that after the addition of the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum to his consciousness, his mental power seemed to have acquired certain special attributes, but it was still somewhat unreal. After this anomaly, it finally became fully apparent.

Spiritual power is originally an attribute-less thing. Although Chen Luo can still output his spiritual power as an attribute-less spiritual power, spiritual power imbued with special attributes will have different bonuses in different aspects such as attack, defense, and healing.

From this perspective, this is indeed a good thing.

Moreover, after the volume of Chen Luo's sea of consciousness increased, the upper limit of his mental power also increased. Now, Chen Luo only needs to go back and get a good night's sleep and rest to fully replenish his mental power, and he will feel that his mental power has increased significantly.

The increase in mental strength is quite important for Chen Luo. In addition to being able to control magic more accurately, it also means that the power of Chen Luo's Tai Xu Sword God will become greater.

"Wait, I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel like the visualization method is always running." Chen Luo, who was observing his sea of consciousness, suddenly sensed something unusual.

Although Chen Luo's consciousness was expanded to its limit under the forced expansion of the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum, the Sea of Consciousness, having reached its limit, seemed to be slowly expanding, but this expansion was very subtle and difficult to notice without attention.

This kind of expansion is different from forced expansion. Forced expansion does have its limits, but slow, self-improvement has no limits.

"... I feel my consciousness is still expanding under the operation of the visualization method. This is the original effect of the visualization method. What's so important about it?" Patchouli rolled her eyes at Chen Luo while drinking red tea.

Patchouli thought that Chen Luo had rushed up to her and was talking about her physical condition, and assumed that something unusual had happened.

"But the problem is that my sea of consciousness seems to be expanding, like right now. And I do feel the special sensation of the visualization you described, but the problem is that I'm not actually practicing visualization, since visualization can only be used during meditation."

"How is that possible? Visualization can only be used during meditation. Your current situation is very abnormal. Tell me what happened?" Patchouli became slightly serious.

"Here's the thing, I have a friend... well, it's me..." Chen Luo started to say, but seeing Patchouli's disdainful look, he finally admitted the truth.

As expected of the Sage of the Seven Stars, he can even see this.

After Chen Luo explained his situation, Patchouli fell into a long silence.

"What's wrong with you? Say something! Am I hopeless?"

"There's no hope. Let's find a coffin and bury him quickly." Patchouli, awakened from her silence, glanced at Chen Luo.

"Am I going to die again? Hmm, thankfully I have one more chance to be resurrected. And thankfully I have a habit of preparing my own coffins, so I prepared 10 coffins for myself. That's me for sure." Chen Luo suddenly marveled at his own foresight.

"... Are you out of your mind? You're actually preparing a coffin for yourself?"

"Yeah, he's sick. Didn't he just get an incurable disease?" Chen Luo sighed.

"Alright, shut up, you're fine," Patchouli said irritably.

"How is that possible? My consciousness is still expanding. I think if it weren't for the problem with this bar, I might have already burst. So, do I really need to die again?"

"... Chen Luo, let me ask you, what is the usual procedure for practicing visualization?" Patchouli said after taking a deep breath.

Patchouli worried that if she didn't calm herself down, she might lose her temper and smash the person in front of her with the book in her hand.

"When you're sleeping or have free time, enter a meditative state, and then materialize the objects you've visualized within your sea of consciousness to gradually improve your mental strength," Chen Luo replied instantly.

Furniture Mastery would allow Chen Luo to learn this technique instantly.

It's absurd that someone Furniture Mastery has been turned into someone with a photographic memory.

"So here's the question: what is the object of your visualization?"

"The Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum."

"What are the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum doing now?"

"It's right here in my sea of consciousness... You're not suggesting that because the Imaginary Tree and the Sea of Quantum have always existed in my sea of consciousness, this creates a special situation where the object of visualization still exists in my sea of consciousness even when I'm not in a meditative state, allowing my mental power to keep increasing until it reaches the upper limit of the object of visualization?"

After being asked the question twice by Patchouli, Chen Luo instantly understood the crux of the matter.

"So now stay away from me, thank you, let me have some peace and quiet." After seeing that the other person truly understood her situation, Patchouli took a sip of her red tea.

Hmm, why does this black tea taste a bit sour?

Oh, I was just jealous. It's okay now.

mmp

Patchouli is really jealous.

In fact, this visualization method was developed by Patchouli based on her 200% Forbidden Poison transformation method and a combination of many common visualization methods she had collected before. In other words, Patchouli is the original author of this visualization method.

That's how Patchouli realized just how much potential this visualization method had.

Unlike the kind of alluring but safe, low-risk, low-return approach, Patchouli's visualization technique is highly dangerous, but its potential and returns are determined by her own aptitude and the quality of the object she visualizes.

Isn't it just about being able to enjoy the benefits of visualization from a supreme being at the pinnacle of a single universe without even having to lift a finger?

Isn't it just about being able to increase the upper limit of one's consciousness and mental strength anytime, anywhere?

Isn't it just about being able to read and master 2000 magic books to a certain extent within half an hour?

Isn't it just about having a mysterious puppeteer school?

Isn't it just about having a bar that's completely invincible, where you can conduct magical experiments at will without worrying about accidentally killing yourself?
