Spiritual space, gluttonous columns.

Xu Yue sat casually on the pillar, holding a milky white chain in his hand, which spawned into the purple sea of fire outside the barrier.

A churning purple ball of flame is attached to the end, and the whole gesture seems to be fishing by the sea of fire.

However, it is similar to fishing, he is indeed borrowing the powerful spiritual body of the ancestral python to give birth to a new consciousness in the sea of fire.

With the improvement of his intellectual attributes, the more he understands his mental space, the more he can feel its wonders.

This psychic ability, granted to him by Professor Charles, contains endless possibilities for development.

The scope of the spiritual space is very large, but it does not only refer to the floating island above his head and the eight extreme prisons under his feet, these existences wrapped by the spiritual barrier are just the embodiment of the rational part of his thinking.

The floating island on the upper level is a polymer that tends to be biased towards positive emotions in the memory mind, so the image it first born from is the forging room in Xu Yue's hometown, which carries his most peaceful and soft memories, similar to the Xavier Genius Academy in the professor's mind space.

The lower Eight Prisons are the polymers of negative emotions in the memory mind, so its external image is the octagonal ring representing gladiatorial fights and fights, where he faces the most blood and death before entering the paradise. Similar to the Mutant Endless Graveyard in the Professor's Mind Space.

These two are the only places where he can manipulate and change, because they are themselves the embodiment of rational order.

The golden sea of stars at the top represents the connection between the soul and the outside world, and the spiritual space is not completely closed under the premise of self-independence.

It's just that what the professor's mental space is connected to is the collective consciousness of all humans in the X-Men world, and as for the place where Xu Yue's mental space is connected, it is impossible to explore it for the time being.

Finally, it was the purple sea of fire located in the lowest part of the mental space, and it and the golden sea of stars became the upper and lower boundaries of the entire space.

These flames are not endless fires, but innumerable, non-subjective, mixed thoughts and thoughts.

On the pillar, another chain was thrown out of Xu Yue's hand, passing through the spiritual barrier and falling into the purple sea of fire, and then the end of the chain quickly wrapped into a ball, enveloping a wisp of flame in the sea of fire.

After completing all this, Xu Yue pulled the chain back with all his strength, and the sphere composed of chains suspended above his palm, slowly opening up, revealing the wisps of demonic purple flames in the center.

The appearance of a flame is the same as that of a fire, but its essence is completely different.

After the flames were fully revealed, it seemed that he sensed Xu Yue's existence, and after a fluctuation, the flames quickly merged into his palm.

Allowing the flames to invade his body, Xu Yue did not resist, but just closed his eyes and silently felt all kinds of pictures suddenly appear in his mind.

There is a picture of himself holding a Fang Tian halberd and wantonly slaughtering in the paradise city.

There is a picture of himself letting go of the group of old and young workers who voluntarily surrendered during the Divine Paradise Massacre.

There is also a picture in the Assassin Tavern, when Gu Yu said that any request would be granted, he asked him to take off his clothes............

Many unwarranted images flashed through his mind one by one, and with them, all kinds of emotions rose from the bottom of his heart one by one, madness, pity, lust.........

All kinds of distracting thoughts turned over and over in his heart, but they were indifferently extinguished one by one, and after a long time, Xu Yue opened his eyes, revealing a pair of slightly reddened eyes.

This was one of the essences of the purple sea of fire, a myriad of complicated thoughts that he had never cared about in his daily life.

As Sigmund Freud's theory of the iceberg of the subconscious suggests, all the rational and orderly behavioral choices that we manifest outwardly are just a small corner of the iceberg.

Hidden underneath it are a multitude of mental activities and emotional motivations that we are not aware of, but which are actually there, and these are the huge mountains under the iceberg, that is, our latent consciousness.

And this purple sea of fire in the mental space, from the point of view of its essential existence, is similar to the potential consciousness mentioned in the iceberg theory.

These chaotic thoughts contained a large number of thoughts, emotions, memories, concepts, needs, desires, and so on that belonged to the depths of his consciousness.

The sea of fire is very important, it is the foundation of the spiritual space, carrying the rational and orderly part of the mind, without it, the reason cannot be constructed, and the floating islands and the eight prisons above will no longer exist.

The sea of fire is no less dangerous, it is the embodiment of chaos and disorder, containing too many complicated thoughts that will instinctively devour all rational beings.

The small wisp of flame that he grabbed before would take Xu Yue to digest for a long time, and if the whole person fell, the end could be imagined, and he would be washed away by countless distracting thoughts and become a madman.

But there is an old saying that says it well – honey for A, arsenic for B.

For rational and orderly spiritual bodies, the sea of fire is naturally arsenic poison, but for those blank spiritual bodies whose consciousness has been burned and their thinking has been reduced to nothingness, the sea of fire is the best honey.

With a sufficiently tough blank spiritual body as a hotbed, so that countless complicated thoughts and thoughts are entangled and aggregated in the hotbed, in this way, it is possible to construct a new core of consciousness for this blank spiritual body, and condense a rational and orderly thinking body.

This is also the reason why the fierce beast gluttony can be born, it is with the help of the professor's blank spiritual body, fused with Xu Yue's mixed thoughts, the independent thinking and self-consciousness that was born.

When he absorbed the professor's spirit body, he had not yet opened the vital equipment of the spiritual barrier.

In the absence of a barrier to separate the inside and outside, and in the case that the Eight Extremes Hell itself fits into the sea of fire, the spiritual body should be the existence of gluttony that was born by chance after passively absorbing too many distracting thoughts and flames at that stage.

Of course, all of this is an inference based on speculation as his understanding of the mental space deepens, and whether the experiment can be carried out depends on the results of this experiment.

Looking at the churning purple balls in the sea of fire, Xu Yue sat cross-legged on the pillar, with a hint of expectation in his eyes, if he could really succeed, then his development of the spiritual space would go further, and the Dominating Soul of the Jiuli Battle Banner would also have a stable source.

Before he has the skill of leading the crowd, he will never blindly do this kind of experiment, as the gluttony said when he was first born, the consciousness born in this way is similar to Xu Yue's split soul, or split personality.

They are the beings that were conceived in the sea of fire through Xu Yue's miscellaneous thoughts, and they are not strictly speaking, a complete and independent life.

They share the same potential consciousness foundation with Xu Yue's subjective consciousness, and belong to the personality consciousness that exists dependent on Xu Yue, living and dying with him, sharing the same fate, and also having the possibility of disturbing Xu Yue's thoughts, and even taking away him.

Of course, after having the absolute control ability of the Jiuli Battle Banner over the soul, this biggest hidden danger was basically eliminated.

Otherwise, Xu Yue would not take the initiative to try to create this uncontrollable new consciousness, even if this ability is very strong, but the power that is not restrained will only harm himself.

Charles's son, Daqun, is a prime example.

The Great Swarm is an omega-level mutant with thousands of personalities, each of his personalities has different mutant abilities, and the source of these personalities is through the absorption of the consciousness and soul of others, and the separation of self-personality.

With thousands of superpowers in one, he is comparable to a god, but thousands of uncontrollable personalities have made him miserable all his life, and he can't exert his full power at all.

The large number of split personalities possessed by the large group is quite similar to his ferocious gluttony.

Xu Yue was seriously suspicious of how the large group of mutant abilities operated, and its basic principle was also to make use of the latent consciousness ocean of the mind space, which was what Xu Yue was doing now.

It's just that Xu Yue is actively experimenting, while the large group is unconsciously operating passively, so there will be a steady stream of new personalities.

Even the growth equipment of the Spiritual Barrier was given to him by Professor X in order to prevent Xu Yue from having the same situation as his son after learning the Spiritual Space, after all, there are too many similarities in the expression of the abilities of the two.

Daqun was able to absorb the soul consciousness of others, while Xu Yue could also absorb the pure spirit bodies of others through the fire.

This also explains why when Xu Yue was about to say goodbye and leave after asking questions in the professor's room, the professor suddenly stopped him, not only took the initiative to grant him such a powerful ability of mind space, but also presented his mind space to Xu Yue completely.

At that time, Xu Yue was still wondering if his 5 points of charm were missing, but now that he thinks about it, the reason why the professor did this should be that he thought of his son after learning about Xu Yue's ability, he knew very well what would happen in the end with a large amount of spiritual soul accumulated in his mind, he didn't want Xu Yue to become the next big group.

That's why the professor is so enthusiastic, teaching the spiritual space, and sending the spiritual barrier, after all, the help Xu Yue has given and the remuneration given by the professor are completely unequal.

The main purpose of this chapter is to explain clearly the setting of the mental space and the birth of consciousness, and many aspects of this ability involved in the later stage.
