Ghost Domain... No, it should be said that the sky in the world of Dream Mirror is also gloomy.

It was as if there would be a torrential downpour in the next moment.

There was no human being, except for the conversation between the two, there was only a dead silence on the rooftop, and Uesugi Kiyoshi pondered the information he had just gotten, and his face was a little complicated.

Ghosts...

This name is quite apt, the weak are ghosts, and the strong are gods.

The law of the jungle is vividly embodied.

Uesugi took a look at the deserted dream mirror world, but the doubts in his heart became more and more.

He was not polite, and asked directly: "So, this is not the real world?" ”

"So where the hell is this? How did I get here? ”

Ryunosuke Akutagawa didn't hide it anymore, and he looked like he knew everything.

"I said, this is my dream mirror world."

"It is a paradise for ghosts and gods, and a forbidden area for humans."

"The only people who can be active here are ghosts and gods, and transcendentals."

"As for what the hell is in the Dream Mirror World..."

"Have you ever dreamed?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi frowned and nodded.

"Have you looked in the mirror?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi then nodded.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa smiled mysteriously.

"That's a good explanation."

"You can think of the dream mirror world as the world of dreams, or the world of mirrors—different from the present world, but born out of another plane of the present world."

"As for the reason for the formation of the Dream Mirror World..."

"Have you ever heard of the Sea of Consciousness?"

Uesugi Kiyoshi was a top student in his previous life, and he read a lot - he didn't have any entertainment activities in college, and he liked to go to the library and read miscellaneous books when he was idle, which was his cheapest way of leisure.

So Akutagawa Ryunosuke's rhetorical question, he can also pick it up.

"Sea of Consciousness..."

"The doctrine of meditation mentions that it is the habitat of the human subconscious, a place for human beings to think, and some Zen Buddhism believes that the sea of consciousness is the nest of the human soul."

"What do you mean..."

Ryunosuke Akutagawa nodded affirmatively.

"That's right, this is the [Sea of Consciousness]!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi is not a fool who believes what people say, he looks around again, and his heart is full of suspicions.

"Akutagawa Police Department, I can probably understand what you mean by the transcendental."

"Since you have brought me here, you must be planning to talk to me openly and honestly, and I will make it clear."

"I've met evil spirits and been pulled into a similar space, and I've given it a name, it's called Ghost Domain."

"With all due respect, if you say that this is actually the [Sea of Consciousness], then this [Sea of Consciousness] is too exaggerated."

"This is a completely real world, can anyone's consciousness carry a complete world?"

Uesugi tilted his head and tapped his temples with a finger.

"My brain will be blown up, Akutagawa Police Department, don't fool me like a child!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi likes to compare his heart to his heart, people treat him with sincerity, and he treats people sincerely, since Akutagawa Ryunosuke has brought himself to the dream mirror world, it is obviously knowing that he has the strength to kill evil spirits, and it is meaningless for him to hide it.

It's better to make it clear, and by the way, find out what these ghosts and gods that have been bothering him all along, and what the ghost domain is.

His meaning is very simple, for example, some people can imagine a room in the sea of consciousness, and those who have a more fertile imagination can imagine a building, a school, or a police station, a supermarket, etc...

Maybe someone can do that.

But can some people imagine a city in the sea of consciousness?

Impossible.

Every detail of the city, every building, every street, every house furnishings, the goods on the shelves of the supermarket, the layout of every building, everything has to be clear and clear.

This is a huge amount of information, and even with the infinite potential of the human brain, it is laborious to process.

Not to mention that from the perspective of Shang Sugi, this is not just a city problem - from a distance, the endless complex of buildings is clearly a new world of life.

He had carefully investigated the ghost realm, and the surrounding scenes, from the layout of the buildings to the furniture of the surrounding merchants, were all the same as the real world.

Simulating a world in the sea of consciousness?

No kidding... It's something that only a god can do.

Ryunosuke Akutagawa's smile became even more mysterious, and he spread his hands and spoke softly.

"You're sharp and understanding, Uesugi-kun, but you're going in the wrong direction."

"Do you think the Dream Mirror World is the transcendent, or the sea of consciousness of ghosts and gods?"

"I didn't say anything like that."

"Uesugi-kun, don't limit your pattern to this level, have you ever thought that if the earth under our feet... If it is alive, will it have the ability to think like a human? ”

"Will it think, will it also have a sea of consciousness?"

"There is a saying that we usually say that nature has infinite mysteries, it regulates itself, it maintains ecological balance through very clever means, it also gets angry, landslides, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, great earthquakes..."

"Isn't it human-like?"

"In many science fiction novels, the idea of [planetary consciousness] or [world will] has been proposed, are these really fictional?"

"Huh... The so-called dream mirror world is the sea of consciousness in the world we live in! ”

"So the world is exactly as it is in the present world in terms of details."

"Do you still have any questions?"

Although he heard the news, Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't show any surprise - he had even seen this kind of thing, and he had also killed a few demons, and he couldn't deny it if you told him about the will of the world, thinking it was nonsense.

Even after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the credibility of this statement was very high.

However, there are still things that don't make sense.

Uesugi Kiyoshi narrowed his fox eyes, glanced at the giant snake on Tokyo Tower with his spare eyes, and said suspiciously, "Logically... But, I hadn't seen anything like this in the Ghost Realm before! ”

"According to what you said, the so-called ghost domain - the dream mirror world you said is the sea of consciousness of the world's will, so it makes no sense that I haven't seen this thing before, and I suddenly saw it today!"

Ryunosuke Akutagawa shook his head and continued to explain.

"You're right, the dream mirror world you entered before, there really is no [Jörmungad]."

"The reason for this..."

"I'll give you an analogy."

"If you compare the dream mirror world to an apartment building, it contains a vast number of almost infinite rooms."

"Each of these rooms has the same layout."

"Then, every time a new ghost or god is born, or a mortal undergoes an extraordinary awakening, and after stepping into the transcendent, their soul will be sublimated, and their ability to inspire will be greatly improved."

"They will possess all kinds of magical abilities, and they will be able to see things that are invisible to mortals, and at the same time, their souls will also have a basic [link] with the dream mirror world."

"This is the path that all transcendent beings in this world must go through, and if you have to ask why, I can only say that this is the rule of the world."

"After the link, the new ghosts, or transcendents, will have a suite in the apartment building of Dream Mirror World, with the same layout as the other rooms."

"This is it, Uesugi-kun, and I invited you into my room right now."

"To be honest, these things you should know, although I don't know which faction you belong to, but you have definitely experienced a transcendent awakening."

"The mirror of the inheritance of the linker, the burnt ritual of the secret ritual, the brain domain development of the true knower, the practitioner depends on what the technique is cultivated, you are a swordsman... That's mostly true sword awakening! ”

"Ordinary mortals, it is impossible to kill ghosts and gods, as far as I know, not counting the fields, you have killed at least five ghosts and gods, even if it is just a few small minions, this is also a rare achievement."

"You must be transcendent, this is not to be questioned, so, you should also have your own dream mirror world!"

Uesugi Kiyoshi's face remained unchanged, but his heart was like electricity, his thoughts were surging, and his brain was working rapidly, splicing together countless clues.

He doesn't have his own dream mirror world, he doesn't have the experience of stepping into the ghost domain by himself, and only when some ghosts and gods target him, he will be passively dragged into the other party's ghost domain.

But, if you think about it...

He has a mirage building!

Hyakki Town, Mirage Tower is located on an island, that isolated island is surrounded by sea water, and it is surrounded by a blank gray mist, he has never broken through those gray mist, and he has never left Hyakki Town.

Will... Beyond the island, a whole new world?

The space where the mirage building is located is his dream mirror world?!

The more Uesugi Kiyoshi thought about it, the more he felt that this was very likely, and he decided to do some experiments to test this conjecture the next time he entered the Mirage Building, and now was not the time to do such a thing.

He pretended to be thoughtful, raised his eyes slightly, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I don't know much about the extraordinary awakening methods you mentioned, but I do have the ability to kill ghosts and gods." ”

"As I said, I've been in the Dream Mirror world, but I don't know anything about it, no one taught me these things."

Akutagawa Ryunosuke was slightly stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Kamizumi Kenhao didn't tell you this?" ”

It was not a secret that Uesugi Kiyoshi followed Izumi Hidekawa to learn swords, and he was not very surprised when he was told at this time, the master had already shown him extraordinary swordsmanship, and he also knew that the master was the "transcendent" in the mouth of Akutagawa Ryunosuke.

But these things, the master has not mentioned to him, Umizumi Hidekawa said that he will wait for Uesugi Kiyoshi to awaken the true sword, and then tell him what is the "world of the transcendent", the more you know, the more danger there is, this is the original words of Uesuizumi Hidekawa.

When the master said so, he definitely couldn't disobey the master's orders, so he could only keep his doubts in his heart.

Seeing that Uesugi Kiyoshi shook his head slightly, a hint of puzzlement appeared on Akutagawa Ryuyusuke's face, but he didn't ask much.

"Okay, I can't take care of your master's affairs, in that case, Uesugi-kun, if there's anything else you want to ask, just ask, and I'll answer them for you one by one."

Uesugi Kiyoshi groaned for a few seconds, pointing diagonally in the direction of Tokyo Tower.

"I have a general idea of what the Dream Mirror World is, but..."

"That monster, Jörmungad, why did he appear in your dream mirror world?"

Ryunosuke Akutagawa looked in the direction of Uesugi Kiyoshi's finger, but after just two glances, he hurriedly turned his head, his face a little pale.

He smiled helplessly, and his voice was a little weak.

"Uesugi-kun, everyone is a resident of this apartment building, so it's not a strange thing to visit the door."

"For example... You're in my dream mirror world right now, and that's if you come to visit my home. ”

"Of course, Uesugi-kun is my invited guest, but in this world, there are always some uninvited evil guests."

"Like... The one you were referring to. ”

"When the strength of ghosts and transcendents reaches a certain limit, they have the ability to enter other people's [rooms]."

"Inviting others into your [room], it's very simple, like you said, you have been pulled into the [ghost domain] by ghosts and gods, and this is very easy to do."

"But to forcibly break into someone else's [room], the difficulty increases exponentially."

"The Jörmungandr you see is not his essence, if his essence comes here, then I will definitely pull you directly to flee for your life, the two of us join forces, it is impossible to deal with him, it is a [natural disaster] level ghost god."

"What exists here is just a wisp of His mind, which means that He has set his sights on me..."

"Even if it is as strong as Jörmungad, it is impossible to directly break into my [room] and devour me, but there is another way for the ghosts and gods to attack the transcendent."

"For example, almost all ghosts and gods are good at illusion - they can use illusion to influence the minds of transcendents."

"After all, the Dream Mirror World is not a present world, and staying here for a long time will cause a lot of mental pressure on the transcendent itself."

"You also said that carrying the will of the world is not such a simple thing, even if it is just to link the dream mirror world, it will bring a great burden to the soul."

"But... Because the Dream Mirror World is beneficial to the growth of the strength of the transcendental, under that kind of high pressure, the inspiration ability of the transcendent increases rapidly, so many transcendents will try to stay in their [room]. ”

"Then, when a transcendent person is under tremendous mental pressure and his soul is on the verge of collapse, if he falls for the illusion of the ghosts and gods, then his soul will [sink]."

"He will not be able to distinguish between the dream mirror and the present world, trapped in his room, unable to return to the present world, and over time, under the double attack of the illusion of the ghosts and gods and the oppression of the will of the world, his soul will collapse."

"At this time, the ghosts and gods who plot against the transcendent can occupy the magpie's nest and take the opportunity to be reborn!"

"This is also one of the most applicable ways for ghosts and gods to break free from the dream mirror world and come to this world."

Ryunosuke Akutagawa took a few deep breaths, and his originally pale face became rosy, as if he had broken free from the discomfort caused by looking directly at Jörmungandr.

"Uesugi-kun, you were pulled into the dream mirror world by the ghosts and gods before, most likely because they planned to bewitch you and then borrow your body to be reborn."

"In fact, there is a way to refuse this kind of [invitation] from others, as long as you are sane, you can refuse to enter the other party's [room]."

"You obviously don't know this method..."

"However, you chose a simpler and cruder way to crack it, and you directly beheaded the master of the Dream Mirror World with the sword."

"That's why I'm so optimistic about you... Uesugi-kun. ”

"As I said, you were born to do what we do..."
