The Depths of the Sky

"Ah, am I being mind-controlled, or am I in the real world? Stop deceiving me!"

Ren Yisheng and the people at the Twilight Mansion established initial contact through live streaming, and also had a relatively short discussion with Zhang Xuezhou.

Ren Wuyang, on the other hand, was suspicious and paranoid.

Still reeling from the intimidation and influence of Zhang Xuezhou and Ren Yisheng, Ren Wuyang finds it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion, and even harbors a deep sense of skepticism about his surroundings.

"Being too perceptive isn't entirely a good thing. Many mental influences are amplified in Wu Yang's Wuyang, and the effects of being counter-controlled are greater than in ordinary people!"

After their conversation, Ren Yisheng looked at Ren Wuyang.

Ren Yisheng and Zhang Xuezhou exchanged and verified their understanding, seeking the connection between the three aspects of realm pressure, Mental Strengthening, and the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity, and also looking for the possible opportunities that might arise from them.

While the two appeared nonchalant during their exchange, it was arguably the most sophisticated mental battle and contest in the world today.

Even though the mental impact on the two was not directed at Ren Wuyang, the lingering effects were still considerable.

Not to mention Zhang Xuezhou, even Ren Yisheng never expected that Ren Wuyang, who pushed the Deterrence Combat Technique into the Fourth Sequence, Ren Wuyang lack the qualifications to be a bystander.

However, being subjected to deterrence to a certain extent is not a bad thing; once one emerges from it, their mental resilience and level of competence are likely to improve.

Ren Wuyang's symptoms are not difficult to resolve. One approach is to rely on Ren Yisheng Yisheng's psychological comfort, which will allow Ren Wuyang to quickly distinguish between reality and falsehood.

Another option is to rely on X432 medical assistance to help Ren Wuyang overcome the impact on her own.

Compared to the former, the latter is more likely to bring some psychological benefits.

The Ren Household's current access to high-end medical care does not stem from the share they can obtain, but rather from the compensation they receive from the Ren Household family.

The medical malpractice case involving the Luo family has been a source of endless disputes, Ren Yisheng has received limited compensation, forcing him to use medical resources with extreme caution.

However, having received numerous promises of X446 medical care from the senior members of the sequence, Ren Yisheng believed that obtaining dozens of X432 medical treatments would not be too difficult.

This means he won't be as frugal with his spending as before; as long as it brings positive benefits to himself and those around him, Ren Yisheng will not hesitate to use the corresponding medical resources.

"Go inside!"

Ren Yisheng pointed to the X432 device prepared in the medical room.

"You're lying to me again! You're lying to me again! My dad would never be that generous!"

Ren Wuyang muttered to himself, feeling that the reality he had finally managed to clarify seemed to have some conflict again.

"This situation is called a mental prison," Ren Yisheng said. "If the mental influence reaches a certain level, it can cause even those lacking subtle perception to fall into the same state of Wuyang, trapping them in their own mental world for their entire lives!"

"Will the effects be negated if one experiences physiological reactions such as hunger or thirst?" Zhang Xuezhou asked curiously.

"Even if they are fully conscious, they may believe that their feelings of weakness, hunger, and thirst are fake," Ren Yisheng said. "Even if they can maintain normal physiological functions, the affected person will deny everything they encounter, believing that they are in a huge illusory world."

"Then how can we get rid of this influence?" Zhang Xuezhou asked.

"Breaking through one's own mental threshold to clearly perceive reality allows one to break free from its influence," Ren Yisheng said. "We, who excel at deterrence, rarely experience this, but once we encounter a backlash and exhibit these symptoms, we become more deeply affected and harder to reverse than others. You can take Wuyang as a case study and see how he managed to return to his own understanding!"

"You all seem to be laughing at me. Don't send me to this X432 device; it might just be a latrine!"

Ren Wuyang shook his head vigorously.

The rugged-looking woman and the flames never appeared in his life again, but Ren Wuyang began to wonder if he had been influenced even more deeply.

Even if he cuts himself and bleeds, uses the Supreme Purity True Technique, or brings up a TV program, his brain can automatically compensate for the situation and even simulate illusory pain and cognition for him.

Seeing Ren Yisheng discussing things with Zhang Xuezhou and then directing him to the X432 device, Ren Wuyang couldn't help but be even more skeptical of its authenticity, since the Ren Yisheng he knew wouldn't be so extravagant.

"Some ancient cultivators refer to the mental prison as a 'heart demon,'" Ren Yisheng explained. "Ancient cultivators who encounter a mental prison find it difficult to escape, and the lack of a protector with higher cultivation only exacerbates their predicament. They struggle to find a true foothold, leading them to doubt everything!"

"In other words, if you encounter this situation, you either need to be freed from the influence by someone stronger, or you need to find a foothold to prove yourself," Zhang Xuezhou nodded.

"That's right," Ren Yisheng said. "After Wuyang enters the X432 device to adjust his state, he will inevitably seek his own support point, thereby breaking through the cage and clearly understanding himself."

"What you said makes sense, but I won't listen to you and squat in the latrine!"

Ren Wuyang's stubborn temper inevitably gave Ren Yisheng a headache.

Ren Wuyang cannot enter the X432 device on his own initiative; forcibly inserting him will inevitably result in resistance and damage to the device.

He was about to give up on pushing Ren Wuyang through this spiritual transformation and rebirth, and instead rely on his ability to soothe the other party to fully awaken, when he heard Zhang Xuezhou speaking to Ren Wuyang.

"If you're looking for a foothold, why not try the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity that I'm giving you, and seek a spiritual breakthrough?" Zhang Xuezhou said. "The surrounding environment can deceive you, but the vastness of heaven and earth is hard to fake. As long as you truly Jieyin with the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity, you should be able to discern your own reality."

"Brother, be more reliable when you talk, unlike my dad who's so unreliable!"

Ren Wuyang shook his head.

He began to realize that he might be in reality, but his subconscious kept telling him that everything he was experiencing might be an illusion, and that the real him might still be lying on the ground.

This feeling is terrible.

Even if Ren Wuyang is willing to believe that he is in reality, he will still doubt himself from time to time, and even think that he is under mental influence and in a dream.

As Ren Yisheng said, he needed to find a real point of support to prove himself.

Relying on the Dragon Elephant Combat Technique as support to dispel falsehoods is one approach, and this was his initial solution. However, Ren Wuyang felt that he was just a little short of it, and perhaps he needed to undergo a transformation as Ren Yisheng had suggested to reach a higher level.

Spiritual transformation is not something that can be achieved overnight. Even within a mental repair device like X432, it would be extremely difficult for Ren Wuyang to seek a breakthrough. Only if he could be injected with a dose of the Heavenly God General's Potion and have Zhang Xuezhou's pain relief would Ren Wuyang have a 50% chance of success.

Ren Yisheng's plan was highly unreliable, but using the method of inducing the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity to make a temporary boost was much simpler, since Ren Wuyang never thought this matter was very difficult.

He's not good at anything else, but Ren Wuyang is indeed very strong in perception. After only a few repetitions, he was able to activate the Righteous Qi Chapter and, under Zhang Xuezhou's guidance, also promoted the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity Chapter.

The immediate need is for him to apply the "Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity" theory to spiritual power.

This prompted Ren Wuyang to murmur incantations. As his spiritual power spread outwards, he also continuously sought out micro-energy that suited him, thus seeking mutual resonance.

Ren Wuyang felt that this sensation was like a resonant frequency; as long as he could perceive it, he could achieve mutual attraction through the resonance he sensed.

Ren Wuyang once explained this feeling to Zhang Xuezhou, but it's one thing for Zhang Xuezhou to understand the principle, but it's quite another to actually put it into practice.

In short, Zhang Xuezhou is no good, Ren Wuyang is.

He murmured the incantation for more than ten minutes, when suddenly his mind swayed and a star shone in the sky, instantly enveloping him in a white light that shone through his body.

In just a short moment, the fog in Ren Wuyang's mind dissipated rapidly, and he quickly regained his senses.

At the same time, Ren Wuyang felt his mental power in his brain constantly increasing.

In the dim light, he seemed to hear the deep roar of a colossal beast.

"There seem to be coordinates of inhabited galaxies!"

A joyful voice, though unfamiliar, could be clearly discerned. Ren Wuyang was momentarily stunned, realizing that the spiritual energy and the Resonance Between Heaven and Humanity and man were completely different from Technique Method.

In the sky where he channeled the micro-energy, it seemed that other powerful beings had already stepped into it before them.
