At the beginning of the design, the training ground was designed with the issue of strength in mind, and there was a magic circle that absorbs impact and increases various resistances. However, the original captain who built the mage tower was only close to the legendary mage after all, and did not really reach the middle circle, and this mage tower was not really fully built, and the damage it could absorb was limited.

It had been destroyed by the battle between Shiki and Qiuhua, and although it was later restored, Shiki had not strengthened its structure.

At this time, under the influence of the battle between Miyuki and Hatsu Sakura, whose strength has increased significantly, it will definitely be overwhelming.

At this critical moment, Shiki took action.

The two attacks collided violently, and wind and flames swept through, but the training ground was not destroyed.

"Huh?"

“？”

Miyuki and Hatsuzakura both stopped because of the changes around them, and at this moment the training ground had disappeared, revealing a chaotic world and the four seasons in the center.

"The four seasons? What's going on? What is this place? ”

Miyuki looked at Shiki in front of her with some blankness, not surprised by her doubts Shiki.

"In order to avoid the destruction of the training ground, I have transferred you to my world."

Shiki explained to them.

"Sniff. The taste of the four seasons. ”

Hatsu Sakura, who is in a calm personality, said in a calm tone, but her tail kept wagging and seemed to be in a good mood.

"The world of the four seasons?"

Miyuki looked around, but of course there was nothing but chaos.

"When did you come up with this stuff?"

"From the last mission."

This is arguably the biggest takeaway from the four seasons in the last mission.

"It's not quite a world here, to be sure."

"The world?"

"The definition of the world is quite broad, and generally the scope will change according to the individual's understanding, for example, the world that has not broken through to the outside of the planet is a planet, and the civilization world that has reached the universe has also expanded to the universe. In the Buddhist concept, the range of the sun and moon that can shine is defined as a small world. That's what the world means here. ”

"Uh......"

Miyuki had an expression that made her point.

In other words, if you call a planet or a place with a relatively complete ecological cycle a world, it is not a good place. By analogy, it's similar to a mage's half-plane, technology-made subspace. ”

"Is this a half-plane?"

Explain to this extent, of course Miyuki understands.

"There are still some differences. The half-plane is a kind of simulated plane realm artificially established by the mage in the dimensional sea outside the plane, similar to the divine kingdom of the gods in the plane. There is a material basis for establishment, which is not the case here. ”

"The spiritual world."

That's when Hatsuzakura interjected.

"Hatsuzakura is right."

Shiki touched Hatsu Sakura's head encouragingly, and Hatsu Sakura's ears shook with excitement, and it seemed that no matter which personality it was, it didn't change at all.

"This is a reference to the inherent enchantment in the world of the moon, which is the embodiment of a mental world, a spiritual world that blurs the boundaries between consciousness and matter."

"Sounds amazing."

Miyuki sighed.

"No, you can do it at this level up to the middle circle. I've seen a little bit of Ramsay's half-plane, which is almost indistinguishable from the whole world. ”

"I can't do it."

"It's just a matter of direction."

Shiki didn't intend to taunt Miyuki.

"Even if you reach the middle circle, martial artists will not have this kind of realm, because the direction of cultivation is their own body, in other words, the body is their world. It's not necessary, and Miyuki doesn't have to care. ”

“……”

Miyuki, who has long been used to it, will not be entangled in this kind of problem.

Since that's all that has been said, Shiki decided to go a little deeper, because Miyuki and Hatsuzakura didn't say it because of their lack of strength, but unexpectedly they both had a breakthrough, so it was necessary to tell the two of them some inherent knowledge.

"Breaking through from the outer circle to the middle circle is not only an accumulation of power, but also a kind of personal ascension, simply put, from the original personal concept to have a profound influence on society, civilization, and the planet."

Therefore, some people, even if they are powerless, rely on their knowledge or thoughts, they will be evaluated as the middle circle, such as one of the rulers that Shiki once met in the mission world of Macross Fortress, and can almost only live in the online environment, but he is also the middle circle.

Correspondingly, when pure power accumulates to a certain extent, quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, which have an impact on the world. Miyuki's ascension is due to breaking the original concept of life. ”

"Hmm."

Miyuki and Hatsuzakura both nodded earnestly.

"This is the difference between the outer circle and the middle circle, and if you reach the inner circle from the middle circle, you will break the relationship between yourself and the world and initially complete a self-circulation system."

"Circulatory system?"

"The world."

Hatsuzakura said that Miyuki also reacted

Only by reaching this level can we initially get rid of the dependence on the world in which we live, and are no longer part of the ecological cycle, but build the ecological cycle by ourselves, so the planetary consciousness is considered to be the most basic inner circle level.

"I see."

Miyuki looked around and immediately thought.

"Doesn't seem like there's anything here?"

"Because it's just a prototype, it needs to be perfected little by little to make it closer to the real world."

"How? Planting trees here? ”

Miyuki would never admit that countless spatial stream novels flashed through her mind at this time.

"I'm afraid it won't work."

Shiki didn't know what Miyuki was thinking, so he just continued.

"This is not a space based on matter, the foundation of it is spirit and consciousness, and although it will have an impact on the real world, it has not really broken the boundary between consciousness and matter, and cannot make the illusory real. So if you want to build it in a half-plane way, you can't do it. ”

"Wait a minute!"

After listening to the words of the four seasons, Miyuki suddenly thought.

"You can't make the unreal real, so you can't make it up by imitation, unless you make the unreal real, but if you can do it, it's already the real world, right?"

"Yes."

Shiki is pleased with Miyuki's understanding so quickly.

"Isn't that like locking the key in a box and having no solution?"

"No, it won't."

Shiki shook his head, although Miyuki thought about it very seriously, but his gaze was still too limited.

"There are many ways to do this."

Since Shiki decided to use this as a way to break through the inner circle, of course he would not make that kind of mistake.

Just as Shiki was about to explain further, Hatsuzakura suddenly pulled the corner of his clothes and pointed to the corner of the chaotic space.
