Xiang Nan relied on the invincible and immortal dream of the way to sprint all the way to the outside of the etheric forest.

The tens of thousands of Aether Spirits haunted him and attacked him continuously.

Under the cycle of being destroyed again and again, Xiang Nan finally broke out of the edge of the aetheric forest and entered the vast plain.

And at this moment, Xiang Nan suddenly felt that those etheric ghosts stopped suddenly, and even one of the etheric ghosts seemed to rush out of the forest boundary because they didn't have time to stop, and at the same time, the ghosts were actually Peng's collapse into countless particles and disappeared.

This phenomenon has attracted Xiang Nan's attention.

Originally, he didn't think that escaping from the forest would be able to escape the pursuit of the Aether Ghosts, he just wanted to escape as far as possible and let these Aether Ghosts slowly give up.

"What's going on?" Xiang Nan turned his head sharply, frowning at the Aether ghosts who had stopped at the edge of the forest.

At this time, these etheric ghosts are all slowly swimming ((swing dàng) dàng at the edge of the forest, but none of them will take the initiative to come out.

If it were someone else, I guess I would be very happy at this time.

But Xiang Nan, who has been exploring and thinking all year round, has developed a very good habit, he will not let go of any kind of abnormal details, and think about them.

"These things didn't come out. The serpent was also thoughtful.

Xiang Nandao: "Could it be that they can't break out of the forest?

The Great Snake said: "Or, is there any powerful formation here that is controlling the Aether Ghosts, and once they leave the formation, they will lose the support of the formation?"

Xiang Nan's eyes lit up, and he immediately began to look for the answer in his heart.

He first tested his own thoughts, whether this Aetheric Forest was a prison.

He turned on the lightning eyes and carefully observed the forest border, if it was a cage, if it was a cage, the Aether Ghost would be punished if it touched the cage border, that made sense.

But no matter how you look at it, the border of the Aether Forest doesn't have any (forbidden jìn) power.

Moreover, whether it was himself or the divine envoy before, he could come and go freely and did not feel any control, which showed that Xiang Nan's own thoughts were wrong.

Let's check the conjecture of the great snake again.

Xiang Nan looked down at the Aether Forest to see if there was a formation to support these ghosts, but the result was none, proving that the Great Snake's conjecture was also wrong.

"That's weird. Xiang Nan frowned, and said to himself: "It's neither a cage nor a formation, so why can't these etheric ghosts chase them out?"

"From a logical point of view, this doesn't make sense. ”

"Snake, with your understanding of life, you analyze it at the level of life, and whether there are any other possibilities (sex xìng). ”

The serpent groaned for a while, and then said, "Oh...... I see what's going on, we're both thinking in the wrong direction. ”

Xiang Nan hurriedly said: "Tell me quickly." ”

The Great Snake said: "First of all, let's start with the formation of these etheric ghosts, according to the main god of nature (temple diàn), the ether ghosts are made of ether particles, and ether particles do not belong to any of the five element elements. ”

"When the aether particle is dispersed, it is so thin, even thinner than air, that nothing can touch it, and it can easily penetrate it. ”

"But if someone catches the attention of the Aether Ghost, their consciousness will coalesce and they will combine the Aether particles to form the Aether Ghost and attack all living things. ”

Xiang Nandao: "I know this. ”

The Great Snake said: "Have you noticed that the targets of the Aether Ghost are good and evil. ”

Xiang Nandao: "Hmm. ”

The Great Snake said: "Only the higher intelligence race will distinguish between good and evil, but the selection basis for the target of the ether ghost attack is not in this category. ”

"This is the most typical, natural forest law. ”

Xiang Nan asked, "What do you mean?" ”

The Great Snake said: "Why didn't we attract the attention of the Aether Ghost when we came in, and why did the Aether Ghost attack anyone for no reason after the Aether Ghost appeared?"

"Haven't you noticed, it's because we're fighting in the forest that the Aether Ghosts have appeared, they're protecting the forest!"

Xiang Nan thought for a moment and said, "Oh...... That makes sense, but why? Do Aether Spirits need to depend on the forest environment to survive? Why protect forests? ”

The serpent said: "This is the crux of the matter! The aether ghost is not an independent life form! In other words, the aether particle does not have the concept of 'living'. ”

"It is this forest that activates the self-protection mechanism, and ((cāo)cāo) controls the aether particles to attack, and the people who may cause harm to the forest, in other words, this forest is alive!"

Xiang Nan's eyes lit up: "So after we leave the forest range, this forest will not be able to continue to transmit its consciousness to the ether particles, causing the ether ghost to collapse." ”

"Ha, I see!"

Only then did Xiang Nan realize that it was not the Aether Ghost who was alive, but the forest itself! It was like a person controlling many marionettes in ((cāo)cāo).

"Then that's interesting. The serpent smiled: "The forest uses consciousness to control the aether particles, but you are a master of consciousness control, what if you can take the aether particles away?"

Xiang Nan smiled: "Bai (日rì) Dream Dao! I can try to invade the consciousness of the forest and let these etheric ghosts be used by me." ”

With that in mind, there's no reason not to give it a try.

Xiang Nan immediately opened the white (日rì) dream path, and sure enough, he instantly discovered the consciousness of this forest.

The difference is that the consciousness of the forest is different from the consciousness of human beings, it is not a whole body, but a large number of scattered clusters, just like a forest with countless trees, and the consciousness of the entire forest is scattered in a dotted manner.

Xiang Nan worked hard to contend with the forest consciousness, and used the white (日rì) dream to expel the forest consciousness.

Sure enough, in the next instant, all the aether ghosts collapsed into aether particles and disappeared.

"Hahahaha!" Xiang Nan laughed: "Try again, see if I can condense the ether particles into an ether ghost!"

Thinking of this, Xiang Nan tried, like a forest, to control those aether particles.

As a result, a large amount of aether particles suddenly appeared in the sky, and these aether particles quickly gathered together, and eventually, condensed into a ball.

"What?" Xiang Nan was stunned for a moment and said, "Why didn't the Aether Ghost form?"

The big snake said: "You take it for granted, the forest not only condenses the ether particles, but also endows the ether particles with a soul, the Protoss is the strongest and strongest person this forest has ever seen, so the aether ghosts it condenses are shaped according to this, and it looks like the Protoss." ”

"This is a good indication that the forest does give souls to the ether particles, but you can only control the consciousness, but you can't give them souls. ”

Xiang Nan was inevitably a little disappointed, and said, "According to that, I can't get my own army of etheric ghosts." The big snake said: "That's pretty much what it means, but it doesn't mean that we have no harvest at all." ”
