My Abilities Come with Special Effects

Chapter 197: Successful Simulation of State of Mind

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the evening, Zhen Youqian came to the door and really succeeded in exchanging the Spirit Marrows.

Lin Yan counted them one by one and confirmed that there was no mistake. He put away the Spirit Marrows, but he couldn’t be bothered to absorb them. He placed them aside and continued to sit cross-legged on the bed.

The effect of the Wondrous Tao Te Ching was extraordinary. With its strengthening of his mental strength, he seemed to have really found some clues.

“Four hours have passed…

The changes in my mind are too complicated, and they change at all times. If not for my extreme control over my clones and the close connection between me and my clones, 1 might not have been able to capture the changes.

“But even so, 1 can only imitate 90% of it on my main body.

“This is only because the Wondrous Tao Te Ching is perfected. It has greatly increased my mental strength.

“Ninety percent…”

“The changes in a person’s state of mind are unpredictable to begin with. If there’s a millimeter of error, there’s a difference of a thousand miles in the end. 90% is no different from zero.

“Or is it because the changes in my mind are too fast and complicated? I still need more time to observe and imitate…”

He sat there and continuously changed and tried.

Late at night, at a certain moment, Lin Yan’s eyes suddenly opened. Divine light shone, and he simulated it 100%. He had completely succeeded!

In an instant, Lin Yan had an extremely strange feeling.

An extremely faint sense of anger involuntarily arose in his mind- he had chosen the rage mentality needed for Explosive Flame—but he clearly realized that he was very calm and did not have any anger at all.

This feeling was as if he had suddenly split into two. One had been separated from his body and was observing and controlling his body from an extremely calm perspective. He had adjusted his body to an angry state, but his self-consciousness had been watching coldly from the side!

It was as if his soul and his primordial spirit had left his body, but he had never been separated from his body.

“Success. 1 accurately simulated the mental state of the clone. However, the extreme anger of the clone is negligible to me.

“However… the mental strength in the clone’s body is so weak that it can be ignored. Not only did 1 simulate the frequency of its changes, but 1 also imitated its weak mental strength.

“This is a little like what 1 learned in middle school in my previous life. Sound has three attributes: pitch, timbre, and loudness. The frequency determines the pitch, and the amplitude determines the loudness.

“Right now, it’s as if my frequency is synchronized with my clone. However, the amplitude my mind can achieve is far beyond that of my clone.

“So… what if I take the initiative to increase my mental strength while maintaining the frequency of its fluctuations?”

BOOM!

Lin Yan’s eyes suddenly turned red, and an anger that seemed to burn the world suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, burning away all his rationality!

Slash!

Wind and lightning roared as the Azure Dragon phantom suddenly appeared. The bed under Lin Yan was directly cut into pieces and electrocuted into charcoal. Even the tables, chairs, cabinets, and furniture in the room were instantly torn to pieces by the terrifying wind blades!

Fury!

Fury!

Fu…

Just as the green dragon phantom was about to break through the wall and destroy everything unscrupulously, Lin Yan’s body suddenly trembled. The phantom of wind and lightning suddenly disappeared, and his eyes suddenly became clear.

He panted heavily, and a look of shock involuntarily flashed across his face.

In that instant, he was instantly blinded by anger for no reason. He directly used the special effect of the Azure Dragon Riding Wind and Thunder, as if he planned to perish with the entire world!

Fortunately, his stamina was greatly exhausted, allowing him to barely regain some rationality. He instantly recalled what he was doing, and only then did he disperse the mental fluctuation in time to stop and not cause irreparable consequences!

However, this huge commotion still alarmed many people. First, Chen Yuan came over and asked with concern.

Then, Ling Shuangxue’s subordinates also ran over to ask a few times.

After knowing that Lin Yan was only cultivating when he caused such a huge commotion, although they were speechless, they had no choice but to retreat.

After throwing an excuse at the people who were asking, Lin Yan took a deep breath and looked at the mess in the room that had shattered into charcoal.

Fortunately, the Spirit Marrows were extremely hard. Under such a terrifying power, they were still undamaged. He picked up all the Spirit Marrows from the ruins and put them away before letting out a long breath.

It worked!

He used the Wondrous Tao Te Ching and the Formless Clones to simulate the frequency of the mental fluctuations of the clones. Then, he increased his mental output and perfectly simulated the mental state required for the Force Feature!

Lin Yan knew that if he maintained his previous state of mind this morning and tested the Explosive Flame, his resonance would definitely reach more than 90%!

Similarly, For any other Force Features, he could simulate his mental state in the same way!

In other words, among the three conditions of the Force Feature, the most difficult state of mind was no longer a restriction to him!

After slowly calming down, it took another six hours for Lin Yan to simulate the greedy devouring mental state required by the Demon Tiger Swallowing the Mountain again. It was also a perfect success!

However, this time, he controlled his mental output and did not cause him to lose his mind.

The two simulations gave him a splitting headache between his eyebrows, and his face was pale. This was a kind of mental exhaustion. Helpless, he could only eat something randomly and lie down to sleep.

Lin Yan slept until noon the next day. He felt that his spirits had improved a little. Then, he recited the Wondrous Tao Te Ching a few more times before barely recovering.

“Last night, I had a nightmare for the entire night. Anger and hunger appeared in my dreams.

“It seems that this simulation is very harmful to the mind. It can’t be carried out casually.”

After eating the breakfast that Xiao Lu had sent over, Lin Yan checked Xiaozhi’s condition and realized that the strange aura had weakened a lot. He took out the Spirit Marrows he had picked up yesterday and finished absorbing them. He fused the Spirit Marrow fragments into the jade statue one by one.

“There are still two days before I have to explore the ruins. It’s just nice to collect more Spirit Marrows and ensure that there’s enough strange aura in the jade statue…”

Then, he took out the remaining third-grade Spirit Marrow. This was a claw-shaped Spirit Marrow. This was the compensation Xiao Ye had given him back then.

Originally, he had planned to exchange it for smaller Spirit Marrows, but the last time he absorbed the heart Spirit Marrow, he confirmed that if he absorbed a high-grade Spirit Marrow, he might be able to see illusions. Therefore, he kept it and directly absorbed it.

As external spiritual matter surged into his body from the Spirit Marrow, the Nine Wisdom Bodhi was filled and transformed into the Enlightenment Spiritual Light.

Including the Spirit Marrows he had absorbed previously, he had already accumulated five Enlightenment Spiritual Lights.

After the Spirit Marrows were sucked dry, the Golden Bodhi Scripture emitted a golden light. Another fragment-like scene flashed in front of Lin Yan.

However, the number of images this time was far less than the Heart Spirit Marrow last time. It was even less than the eyeball Spirit Marrow from before. There were only two or three sporadic images.

In the illusion, there seemed to be a strange creature that looked like a human but was not human, a beast but not a beast. It was hunting and devouring.

This strange creature looked a little like a human, but it was thin. Its skin was rough and wrinkled, but its limbs were extremely long. When it walked, it landed on all fours, like a deformed human crawling on all fours.

It used its sharp claws to cut open a corpse and take out a Spirit Marrow from its squirming internal organs.

The corpse was actually somewhat similar to its appearance, as if they were of the same kind.

It clearly revealed a ferocious excitement and carefully stuck the Spirit Marrow to its claws.

It was unknown what it did, but the Spirit Marrow actually melted softly and fused into its claw.

However, doing this seemed to make it suffer immense pain. It kept rolling on the ground and letting out a terrifying howl. Its sharp claw scratched its body until it was covered in injuries and blood surged.

In the end, it went crazy and pounced on the corpse of its kind, beginning to devour its internal organs in large mouthfuls.

The scene collapsed and the golden light dissipated. The illusion this time was very short. Could it be that the quality of the Spirit Marrow was too low?

However, the quality of the external spirit essence in the eyeball Spirit Marrow was even inferior to this claw-shaped Spirit Marrow’s. Or could it be that the eyeball Spirit Marrow had been left for too long and the spiritual substance had dissipated?

Lin Yan recalled the creature in the illusion just now. The way it absorbed the Spirit Marrow was a little similar to how Xiaozhi absorbed the Spirit Marrow previously!

It seemed to need the Spirit Marrow, but absorbing the Spirit Marrow made it suffer immense pain. Then why did it absorb the Spirit Marrow?

Shaking his head and throwing these mysteries out of his mind, Lin Yan looked at the Golden Bodhi Scripture. There were five dazzling Enlightenment Spiritual Lights. The Black Jade Bodhi would take at least two months to accumulate to perfection again.

Where should he use these five Enlightenment Spiritual Lights?
