Chapter 1482: Chapter 437 Midsummer Night

"Why haven’t you caught on yet!" Elder Andulan shook his head with a wry smile while looking at old Liu: "The clone magic of the Mirage Bead Overlord is purely an illusion crafted with mental power. Essentially, Silvester isn’t a full-spectrum Magical Beast at all; he is just a monster that can clone and imitate any magic using mental power. Therefore, the frostiness contained in these Mirage Beads is also his residual origin power---------mental power simulated into frost breath."

Old Dragon lifted an Ice Pearl and peered through it at Xiang Pa, not waiting for Liu to be shocked before continuing, "My dear daughter-in-law Ning Yu can also create all sorts of incredibly gorgeous magic, but it’s all for show, with no attacking power! What’s impressive about the Mirage Bead Overlord is that what he conjures can make the illusion real! But illusions are still illusions, and this fact is ultimately unquestionable!"

"Does that mean the icy chill I feel from these Mirage Beads is just an illusion, and essentially the frosty aura of these pearls is merely mental power?" Liu, struck with amusement, laughed heartily: "No way, right?"

"The illusion of this chill is too genuine, convincing you, me, and all things in the world beyond doubt!" lamented Old Dragon, reciting a scripture, "This is what’s called ’When the false is treated as true, the true also becomes false; when the true also becomes false, the false also becomes true.’ What a pity that Challenger Silvester, with his once illustrious reputation, ended up dying at the hands of an ignoramus who knew nothing about him!"

"According to what you’re saying, dad, if Ning Yu develops her illusion magic to the highest level, couldn’t she also reach the state of ’when the false meets the true, the false also becomes true’?" Liu, with his arm around Ning Yu’s slender waist, looked down at his beautiful wife and chuckled.

"That’s impossible! The Mirage Bead Overlord’s talent is not something Mo Shao can compare with! Richard, if you fully absorb the mental power contained in hundreds of Mirage Beads, although you won’t reach the Challenger’s extremely perverse cloning ability, the benefits of pure mental power to a Mage and a priest are immense—I don’t need to tell you what those are!" Elder Dragon hinted while tweaking his longevity brow, "Congratulations, mental power is the most mysterious elemental power, directly linked to the soul, usually innate, and very rarely obtainable through external ways!"

"Then how can I obtain the mental power from these Mirage Beads? Should I eat them?" Excited, Liu saw one-in-a-million boon for mages and priests in the formidable mental power; like the Aegean Flower that granted the mute elder in the mountains the ability to speak without a tongue, the mental strength accumulated within these Mirage Beads was surely noteworthy. To combine both, if it granted him the ability to wield powerful mental command and use solitary control aura, he would undoubtedly become the strongest priest ever among the Beamons!

However, he also knew that whether it was absorption or transfer of elemental power, there were only a few limited and usually extremely demanding methods; naturally, mental power would be no exception.

"Nonsense! It will freeze you to death! Right now, these mental powers are disguised as frost power!"

"What should I do then? Come on, tell me!" Liu was getting anxious.

"Have you forgotten? You still have the Thousand-Year Aegean Flower!" Elder Andulan chuckled: "That thing has already been appraised by Elder Cruyff of the Shepherd-tree People, and old Ent thinks that it should be a Desert Shepherd-tree Person he’s never seen before! It’s just not quite three thousand years old, while it has taken on humanoid form, it is still far from evolving into a fully sentient Ent with complete wisdom!"

"Right, where’s Elder Cruyff? Why haven’t I seen him tonight?" Liu whistled, "That old codger, he wouldn’t have gotten entangled with a young female Ent and sneaked off somewhere for a tryst, would he?"

"He took those Ents to the Chesang Continent to graze the forests. The old Ent is very spirited right now!" Elder Andulan laughed, "As for whether he is smitten by a younger pear in the presence of a flowering crabapple - that’s none of our business! Don’t be like the green Giants, playing with same-sex love, and relying on artificial reproduction."

"Are you suggesting he makes me a Magic Grafting Scroll? Elder Cruyff, though proficient in Plant System Magic, seems to have a bit of a rocky relationship with the Elves; I wonder if he would know that spell?" Liu scratched his head, feeling a bit dubious.

"We don’t need to rely on that old coot Cruyff, we can figure out a way ourselves! The Thousand-Year Aegean Flower is the best solution!" Elder Andulan pointed to a cluster of pearls that had clumped together: "Do you see why these pearls are stuck together? It’s not due to freezing, but because of the unique permeability of mental power—since you placed them closely together inside a cloth bag, they’ve all fused with one another!"

"What connection does the Thousand-Year Aegean Flower have with the Mirage Beads then?" Liu asked blankly; the Thousand-Year Aegean Flower has been a lingering issue for him, he had not approached this plant to acquire mental communication abilities, mainly because there was a psychological barrier, but he knew that he would eventually take action.

Hurried footsteps sounded outside the door, and a petite figure rushed in and "swooshed" a hand, hurling a dark object at Liu.

"What’s the matter?" Liu deflected it, only to find that what had been thrown at him was a book.

Elise was trembling with anger, while the old lecher watched her with a mischievous grin.

The Aegean Flower wiped the tears from her lovely face, and with a backward summersault, her legs "whooshed" up in a swift kick, aiming straight for old Liu’s jaw.
