"Can you understand what I explained before?"

Mom looked at Lu Xin's thoughtful look, waited patiently for a while, and then asked softly.

"Okay."

Lu Xin's answer is very worthy of his university diploma.

And if he subconsciously used the power of fantasy at the beginning to destroy Midnight Court's logical chain, prevent it from judging Teacher Lu, and isolate its influence on Qinggang Satellite City No. 2, then after Mom's narration in the abyss, he did understand what kind of power real fantasy is and what levels it has...

"Then, I'm going to start explaining the other two levels to you..."

Mom nodded with satisfaction and said softly, "You have to listen carefully, because this is the level of opponent you are about to face."

"..."

"..."

"The higher level beyond the fifth step is True Creation."

When Sixth Step was mentioned, Mom's voice also lowered slightly. This might just be an unintentional move, as if he was afraid that if his voice was too loud, it would alert an unknown being and attract his hatred and destruction.

"Most of the various abilities and monsters we experience are at the spiritual level."

Mom said softly, "You should know this better than others."

"However, there will also be some special spiritual powers that have begun to have an impact on reality, thus giving birth to some monsters that should not appear in reality and violate common sense of physics and ordinary people's cognition. Such Mental Monster is often born due to a power beyond Fifth Step, a power that extends from the abyss into reality."

"..."

Lu Xin listened and couldn't help but nodded.

He understands this very well, because he had the ability to see Mental Monster from the beginning.

This feeling is very strange, because I can see Mental Monster, so I can deal with many pollution incidents in a more comprehensive way, but this also separates myself from the cognition of other ability users. Many times, in their eyes, it is just a ball of twisted and unstable spiritual power, but in my eyes, it is a real and terrifying ball of squirming flesh balls and tentacle-like monsters.

But that's not entirely true.

Since joining Special Purity Department, he has seen several monsters with entities.

For example, the brain that Black Marsh City created that could play the violin, or the ultimate creature they later created: God.

These are all Mental Monster that truly exist in reality and can be seen.

"The use of the power of creation is a very dangerous thing."

Mom said softly, "The level of this power is very high. Among humans, there are very few cases where humans can really control this power without losing control. However, just because humans cannot control it, it does not mean that humans will not discover and try to control this power..."

"It's like a child playing with fire, the behavior we hate the most."

"..."

Lu Xin suddenly reacted: Is this why Mom hated Black Table experiment so much in the first place?

In addition, when I met the experimental subjects of Black Table, I could indeed find that their creations had a great influence on me.

Because they have already come into contact with high-level power?

"The power of True Creation has reached a level that is extremely difficult for people to imagine. To a certain extent, you can even understand that this originally belongs to God's authority. It is also a power that can only be mastered by creatures that are close to touching the level of 'god'. He can release existences that only exist on the spiritual level into reality, truly disrupting the order of reality and destroying the foundation of mankind."

"To put it simply, once the power of True Creation appears, the human world will have no chance of confrontation."

"..."

"Is it so scary?"

Lu Xin couldn't help but think about it secretly.

In fact, he has already seen a little bit of the power of Sixth Step and True Creation.

It's not complete, but it already shows some qualities.

The simplest thing is to affect reality.

So far, I have met at least two people who have the ability to influence reality.

One is the number two I saw when Kindling City.

The other one is myself when I was a child, or in other words, a "tyrant".

Number Two's ability is to turn a water glass into an apple, and the tyrant in childhood can turn a vase into a poisonous snake.

Sounds a bit like a magician.

Another point is that every time Lu Xin thinks about this, I feel a little incredible.

This is not consistent with common sense in physics at all.

As mentioned in primary school physics textbooks, there is no such thing as turning stone into gold.

If you are now, you can give a stone to someone else and make them believe it is gold, or you can show it to others and make other people think it is gold. You can even ask them to test it, and then tamper with their cognition and thinking to make them believe that the test result still proves that the stone is actually a piece of gold...

But a stone is a stone.

No matter how delicate and huge the fantasy is, there will always be a fatal flaw.

Perhaps the person doing the test suddenly discovered one day that there was something wrong with the level of the test, or one day he suddenly discovered that if the test result of this stone was gold, wouldn't that mean that his house and coffee table were also made of gold?

This loophole cannot be closed.

But according to Mom, if it reaches Sixth Step, can this vulnerability be hidden?

"True Creation is the most terrifying power..."

While Mom was thinking about it, Lu Xin had already taken him to a strange place in the abyss.

This place is like a gloomy sea, and the light of Crimson Moon seems a little dim here, as if it has been swallowed up.

She looked at the sea and whispered:

"I can't explain it in detail in words, but I can give you a look and understand how this power is created."

"..."

After saying this, she turned to look at Lu Xin and said softly, "Are you ready?"

Lu Xin was slightly startled. She actually saw deep fear in her eyes, and her heart sank slightly.

What are you doing to make Mom worried like this?

After a slight silence, Lu Xin smiled and said with a deliberately relaxed smile, "Okay."

Lu Xin's smile infected Mom. She held the palm of Lu Xin's arm and exerted a slight force. Then, the two of them, under the Crimson Moon's Gaze, slowly walked down to the "sea area" below, or in other words, a deeper abyss.

Since entering the abyss, Mom has been taking Lu Xin for a walk here.

She seemed to be deliberately letting Lu Xin know about this place.

But now, they are walking deeper into the abyss, so a strange experience floats in Lu Xin's heart. He feels like he has entered a world without gravity and everything is upside down, or like he is immersed in a strange and gorgeous dream. In this dream, he sinks deeper and deeper. He is far away from reality, and even further away from this dark red abyss.

It's like diving deep into the ocean.

He saw different scenes layer by layer.

When the dark red world began to blur, he saw everything around him turn into darkness.

In the depths of darkness, there seemed to be nothing.

But when Lu Xin looked intently, he was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat.

He saw huge statue of Gods. Some were Buddhas holding flowers and smiling, some were Celestial Venerables holding Fu Chens, and some were s with sad expressions. Heavenly Father, there are also many colorful demons, foxes and snake gods. These statues exist in the boundless darkness. Each one is extremely tall. In front of them, Lu Xin feels as small as a fly and has a deep sense of powerlessness.

But the unknown number of statue of God and Buddha were hidden in this darkness, silent.

There is a sense of despair and horror...

"I'm not surprised to see anything here..."

Mom explained softly, "The abyss is the human heart, and everything is hidden in the human heart."

"Some were forgotten by them, and some were deliberately hidden by them."

"There are also some things that they will never admit in their lifetime, but they have a real impact on them."

"..."

Lu Xin remained silent and did not speak, but kept walking deeper into the abyss with Mom.

He saw scenes of bizarre scenes.

I saw huge tombstones standing in the endless darkness.

Saw rusty trophies piled up into huge mountains of trash.

I saw beautiful faces of various colors, strung on thin threads like dried fish.

I saw all kinds of firearms, and was played with in my arms by a baby who was as big as a tall building...

It's like the nightmares of countless people in the world are displayed bit by bit using abstract techniques, and turned into a huge exhibition, so people can truly and clearly feel all the weirdness and desolation in these desperate scenes.

He saw the forest of despair, the flowers of death, the lonely monster, and the confused soul.

The deeper you go, the more despair and weirdness you see.

But as he went deeper into the abyss, the illusory images Lu Xin saw became less and less, and there were only large expanses of darkness.

Like eternal loneliness and death.

Gradually, a tremor rose from the bottom of my heart.

He suddenly felt a low wailing sound, it was Jack of Spades playing cards, struggling desperately, and seemed to feel fear.

"Shashasha..."

The sound of tens of thousands of silkworms gnawing at mulberry leaves could be heard all around, right next to my ears, before my eyes, and in my mind.

"That's..."

Even Lu Xin suddenly felt extremely nervous.

"It doesn't matter, you just need to see..."

Mom's voice sounded beside him, and her face was full of determination.

And at some point, large wounds and blood began to appear on her body, but her expression suddenly became firm, even decisive.

"In order to let you see this, it's worth taking any big risk..."

Must add more today.

Before writing these chapters, I was a little hesitant. Some of the content had been mentioned in pieces before, but after discussing it with several people, I still felt it was necessary to explain it through Mom's words, and then lead to a higher level.

I talked to the editor and he thought it was great.

Although some settings of Crimson Moon were added later, they are very cool and stylish.
