Chapter 1302: Chapter 538 The Grey Space

"Although it’s not my first time entering this space, I still find it quite magical every time I come here..."

Shen Cuishan murmured admiringly as she looked at the gray space before her.

"Indeed..."

The others also subconsciously nodded their heads.

They had witnessed some Awakeners, and most of their awakenings were within their understanding. But Peng Nan’s awakening was different; it was like being in another dimension, and this space was vast, not something that seemed within the grasp of a Level 4... so they couldn’t understand how Peng Nan managed it. Could there be Awakeners of time and space as well?

"Follow me, don’t wander off."

Peng Nan hummed coldly, leading the way at the front. From the slightly raised corners of his lips, one could see he was somewhat self-satisfied.

Especially when he turned around and saw the look of surprise on the face of Wang Tao, the unexpected guest, his vanity was greatly satisfied.

Wang Tao was indeed quite surprised; if he hadn’t known beforehand that Peng Nan was a Psychic Awakener, he might have thought there was some kind of spatial system.

But he had already known that Peng Nan was a Psychic Awakener in advance, so after entering this gray space, Wang Tao immediately began to study it carefully with his powerful spiritual power.

Soon, Wang Tao discovered some clues—

The gray space appeared to be in another time and space, but actually, it was enveloped in a very strange psychic force.

The reason he called this spiritual power strange was that it was extremely powerful, so much that it made Wang Tao’s heart tremble. Yet, this spiritual power was dull, rigid, stubborn, and not as flexible and varied as Wang Tao’s own spiritual power.

If spiritual power could build a house, then Wang Tao’s spiritual power could simulate sand, cement, lime, steel rods, and all kinds of building materials. Wang Tao could build whatever kind of house he wished.

But the spiritual power in this gray space was different; it was like prefabricated housing materials that just needed simple assembly to become a house. The house might be large, and the assembly might be fast, but the style of the house was fixed, immutable. That’s why Wang Tao found it so dull, rigid...

Wang Tao felt that this stagnant spiritual power must have been borrowed from somewhere and didn’t belong to Peng Nan himself.

This spiritual power was basically uncontrollable; Peng Nan’s awakening could only control it briefly, and there were likely many restrictions.

After constructing this gray space, even Peng Nan might not be able to continue controlling this spiritual power. After all, the spiritual force was too strong; Wang Tao didn’t dare to attempt forcibly controlling it, and for Peng Nan’s strength, it would be like seeking death.

The reason this gray space gave the sensation of being in another dimension was because they were being led by this formidable spiritual power.

It was as if Peng Nan had borrowed this formidable psychic force to construct a virtual house, but the house was too realistic, so realistic that as soon as everyone entered, they felt like they were within the house.

So, in a way, this was also an illusion.

The only difference was that this illusion was fixed; once constructed, it could not be changed. And the range of this illusion was so vast that it almost covered the entire factory. Most importantly, the illusion was strong, so strong that even powerful zombies would be trapped and ignore them; with Wang Tao’s powerful spirit, he also couldn’t see through and break it...

These were all Wang Tao’s conjectures after his observation; whether they were correct or not, he couldn’t find out while he was within this gray space.

Unless there was someone observing from outside the boundary of this gray space, or recording with a camera or some electronic device.

Wang Tao carried a portable law enforcement recorder with him, which he quietly turned on to check the small screen.

Indeed, the picture on the screen was in color and showed the red characters on the factory walls. This basically proved Wang Tao’s conjecture was correct.

In simple terms, Peng Nan had borrowed a massive amount of spiritual power from somewhere, and this spiritual power was too vast, beyond the capability of both Wang Tao and those Level 5 Monster Lords to break through. But this spiritual force didn’t attack; it just rigidly formed this gray space...

Wang Tao was very interested in this gray space; if he could borrow this kind of spiritual power or figure out what the principle was behind it, it would be a significant help to his psychic awakening.

But for the moment, he couldn’t figure it out; besides, Peng Nan’s awakening was time-limited, and the gray space was made up of segments, with the earliest constructions disappearing first. They needed to set up the traps before the gray space disappeared, not wasting any time.

Wang Tao didn’t say much and just followed along. He was also curious about what kind of trap they were setting up that they were confident could kill three Level 5 Monster Lords.

"Friend, which faction are you from? I have absolutely no recollection of you..."

At that moment, the round-as-a-ball Yu Li came over to Wang Tao and asked in a whisper. He apparently mistook Wang Tao for someone from the Silver Serpent Base.

Wang Tao turned his head to look at him.
