Chapter 206: Combining the Heart and Soul (1/2)

Zhi Qing left the two alone inside the Stellar Sky Foundation.

Once again, Grand Researcher Ou and Ming Yue activated the room.

”Good, your energy is much more refined compared to before”, Grand Researcher Ou's voice spoke within her head.

Their energy swirled around in a large sphere, encapsulating the two within. Under the Grand Researcher's control, the sphere began to convert their power, taking it as its own. The sphere suddenly dispersed into particles, covering every part of the Stellar Sky Foundation. It shined and shimmered, changing the surroundings and transforming it into a field of grass.

It was very calm and the weather was peaceful.

However the transition was incredibly strange, the sensation was different from that of an illusion. Ming Yue's head began to ache and her eyesight was blurred. She rubbed her temples while GRand Researcher Ou walked around.

”I assume that Zhi Qing has given you a short introduction to Mental Energy?” she asked.

Ming Yue nodded.

”Yes, Elder Shen was the one who had discovered it and created this room to make it easier to foster that energy.”

”That is correct. Shen Zhong was the one who found it and researched it to its utmost capabilities. Mental Force is fundamentally different than anything else because it has no physiscal form. It is ethereal, more so than that of our Quintessence Force and the World's Energy. It deals with the matters of the mind, influencing them through illusions like this. This is also how I can speak to you directly through your mind and how I know that there is another you inside. Speaking of, you can speak now.”

Grand Researcher Ou smiled as she spoke those words.

”What? How did you detect me?” Xue Yue's voice perked up.

Ming Yue was surprised but quickly understood that someone like Xue Yue could not be hidden. After all, Elder Shen was able to detect her, it was no different for Grand Researcher Ou.

She only smiled at Ming Yue while answering Xue Yue's question.

”Shen Zhong's sigil had a message hidden within it, telling me of your unique situation. I confirmed it the first time we had activated the Stellar Sky Foundation.”

”I see”, Xue Yue's voice turned quiet as Ming Yue asked a question.

”If the elder has told you about Xue Yue, then it must mean that you can do something about this?”

”To an extent, with the help of the Stellar Sky Foundation, I can improve the connection between your two minds. But sensing it now, merging them together is next to impossible for they have become two seperate entities.”

”Oh...” said Xue Yue.

She was silent as was Ming Yue Yue. Though they did not speak, it was simple to see that such words had caused waves in their emotions. Though most of their conversations had been telling each other off and arguing, the idea of becoming one was strange. As low of a chance as there may be, there was still a chance.

”That can come later. First, we must start on unlocking your Mental Force.”

Grand Researcher Ou saw the strangeness in Ming Yue's eyes and changed the topic.
