The Rise of the Black Plain-Novel

Chapter 612: Infinite Dream 2

Finally, young Stuart finished learning the basics of that mental technique when he opened his eyes and looked in the direction of those two women.

Now that he had learned the basics, he would only need to practice a few times until he could activate that technique for the first time. After that, he would achieve the minimum mastery necessary to use this alternative whenever he wanted.

So, after looking at his two girlfriends for a brief moment, Minos immediately began to execute the commands of that technique so that he could activate it for the first time.

'First, I have to circulate my spiritual energy towards my brain...' He thought to himself as he executed his first attempt.

'... After the fourth step, I have to use some of the laws for the technique to take shape...'

While thinking about the activating process, he was constantly making gestures with his hands, using his fingers to make the energy in his body follow specific paths.

Such a thing was not a requirement of the technique, but a method cultivators would use to more easily direct their energies the first few times they were to activate a spiritual technique.

When learning a new technique, the connection between the user and the technique would be tiny. Therefore, it would not be easy to execute all the commands easily and quickly. On the contrary, the difficulty would be significant, similar to what would happen to a person who had never written with a pen in his life and who was going to do this for the first time.

In this situation, even if such a person saw other people using the pen, his writing would hardly be beautiful or efficient. At least there would be great difficulty initially, and later, besides the handwriting becoming more attractive, the speed or skill would significantly increase!

And it was not so different with the spiritual techniques.

In the beginning, each technique would pass the feeling that it was very complex, something difficult to use, sometimes requiring several hours to activate for the first time.

An example was when Minos had learned his movement technique, Explosive Steps. At that time, he had fallen several times trying to activate it and was even mocked by the then little Kyla.

But contrary to what the Nine-tailed Fox had previously thought, Minos had not been throwing himself to the ground on purpose. Instead, that had happened because it had taken him many attempts to activate the technique successfully.

Despite the difficulties at first, once a technique was mastered, its user could activate it very easily, to the point where it was no more complicated than walking!

Hence, Minos wouldn't have to make those hand gestures he was currently making in the future.

"Ahh!" He made a low sound of pain as he brought one of his hands to his forehead, feeling a pain in that area as if he had been hit on the head.

'Shit! I failed the second step...' He thought about it as he realized the most obvious mistake he had made on that first attempt.

After that, he immediately returned to repeating the previous execution, trying not to make the same mistake as before.

...

After trying to activate Infinite Dream a dozen times, Minos finally succeeded!

After almost 40 minutes of doing this, he perfectly executed the commands of that technique, causing unique energy to circulate through his brain, a mixture of some laws and spiritual power.

As he did so, this energy quickly coursed through his brain until it finally reached its final destination, young Stuart's eyes!

Infinite Dream!

Suddenly, young Stuart's eyes turned colorful, with all the visible spectrum colors appearing around his pupils.

At the same time, Minos' two pupils suddenly contracted, just at the moment when he had looked in Abby's direction.

As he did such a thing, Abby immediately felt a shiver run down her spine. At the same time, she felt a powerful invisible force approaching her until such a thing penetrated through her eyes.

'Do you want to test your technique on me, you rascal?' Abby thought to herself as she suppressed the instinctive fear she had felt earlier.

She knew perfectly well that Minos would not harm her. Hence, she trusted what he was doing and took it without getting angry.

Abby had felt her vision dimming within 2 seconds of young Stuart looking at her before she began to see a foggy place that appeared to be in the middle of a forest.

'What is this?' She looked from side to side before raising both her hands to her face and looking at the place incredulously. 'What is this place? Did he teleport me here?'

She could feel the beating of her heart, the temperature in her surroundings, the sound of animals, the humidity in the air. In short, she could feel everything that would be found in an environment like the one she was in!

And since she knew of no techniques capable of doing such a thing, for just a second, she had almost thought she had been teleported somewhere else.

However, the next moment she shook her head from side to side as she thought better of it. 'No, Minos would at least need to touch me to get me to another location! Even arrays can't do something without the slightest contact...'

And after a while of thinking, she finally saw the figure of her father and mother approaching that place.

Seeing this, she immediately understood what was happening. 'This is an illusion!'

She knew very well that her parents were in the local government mansion at this moment. So, in this case, it didn't make sense that she would see them in that place, in the middle of a forest.

Abby then looked at the figure of her parents and said. "Minos, your technique is amazing! You almost tricked me..."

"Now, why don't you show yourself?"

"Show me?" She heard her boyfriend's voice as if such a thing had come from every direction in that place.

"I'm on your side."

After hearing this, Abby suddenly saw the image in front of her disappear and the cultivation room she was previously in reappear in front of her.

Gulp!

And while she felt shocked by such a sudden change of scenery, she felt one of Minos' arms around her waist as he had his head resting on her left shoulder.

"You... Weren't you in the illusion with me? What happened?" She asked in surprise as she turned her face and looked in the direction of Minos and Ruth.

Hearing this, Minos just smiled as he looked at Ruth and nodded to her.

"I don't know what happened to you, but after his eyes changed color, he just walked over here and sat down next to you." Ruth said while also feeling quite agitated at the moment.

Ruth had felt the strength of the technique that Minos had used on Abby, and she was sure that if he wanted to use such a thing on her, she would have no way of escaping such a technique!

Hence, she was pretty impressed by this, since until recently, she could still withstand Minos' techniques for at least a few breaths.

Anyway, upon hearing that, Abby understood the situation a little more. "So, you can create such an illusion and still act normally... But how could you have answered me? Were you in control of the technique or not?"

Hearing this, Minos laughed. "Hehehe, I can do both simultaneously, Abby."

"Is that true?" Ruth asked in doubt.

She had a mental type technique, but she couldn't do two things simultaneously. Therefore, she was amazed by this statement.

"Hmm, some techniques have a mechanism of action that works in our place... Anyway, I can't explain that properly myself, since I lack understanding about Natural Laws."

"But take a simpler example. You can run, talk, think about random things, all that and more simultaneously."

"Oh? So, that's how it is..."

Minos then smiled at her and Abby before standing up and saying goodbye to the two. "Well, it's time for me to get back to my work, hehe. See you later..."
