chapter 213 - Breaking the Safe Distance
Today, Mo Si was teaching Jiang Qiuqiu about attacks.
“During the entrance exam, besides testing mental perception, they will also test mental attacks.”
The former depends on your understanding of mental power, while the latter depends on your control over it.
“To attack someone’s mental power, the most basic step is to look into their eyes and reach their mental sea. This is the basics.”
After Mo Si finished speaking, he suddenly approached. The two of them break the safe distance in an instant. Jiang Qiuqiu instinctively leaned back, and Mo Si frowned, gripping her shoulder.
The man is strong, and Jiang Qiuqiu’s body was instantly held in place.
Like waves of the sea, his eyes met hers. A warm breath swept across her cheeks. He wasn’t gentle, but his deeply reassuring and charming voice sounded in her ears, “Let me take you into my mental sea first.”
Afterward, a profound and mysterious sensation followed.
Suddenly, Jiang Qiuqiu felt herself relax entirely. She felt like a solitary boat floating on the sea, riding the waves and drifting with the wind among the spray. Then, she sank into the ocean, immersed in its boundless expanse of sea water.
In her half-conscious state, it felt as if a hand gently pushed her up from behind.
The warm temperature caused Jiang Qiuqiu to open her eyes.
At this moment, Mo Si was looking at her.
“How does it feel?”
“Um…”
“?”
“Your mental sea is really vast.”
“Do you remember how it feels to enter someone else’s mental sea?” Mo Si asked, lowering his gaze.
Jiang Qiuqiu pondered for a moment. “I think I’m starting to feel it.”
“I’ll guide you a few more times. Remember this sensation, then try it on your own.”
Under Mo Si’s mental influence, Jiang Qiuqiu felt a sense of being controlled, enveloped by a majestic power. After several attempts, she seemed to grasp some techniques.
Mo Si began to withdraw his assistance, allowing Jiang Qiuqiu to proceed on her own.
This required keen observation. Jiang Qiuqiu focused intently on Mo Si and soon touched upon his mental sea.
The feeling of being led into someone else’s mind was completely different from entering on her own. Jiang Qiuqiu relaxed in Mo Si’s mental sea for a while, but suddenly, she felt a slight mental agitation. Her headache, and a sense of oppression struck her. She quickly retracted her mental energy, but due to the delay in withdrawing, there was still a slight backlash.
The pain left her face pale.
Then, Mo Si’s calm voice sounded beside her ear, “You were careless.”
“I’ve told you before, mental power is the most important thing for a person. When entering someone else’s mental sea, you must remain vigilant at all times.”
Jiang Qiuqiu: …
She looked at Mo Si with a strange gaze. On her face, which had always been smiling, there appeared a slight surprise, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
“What’s wrong?”
“…Nothing.” Jiang Qiuqiu softly uttered these three words. “I remember. Next time, I won’t be careless.” The atmosphere was pleasant, and Mo Si’s occasional charming words made Jiang Qiuqiu feel increasingly relaxed around him.
Unexpectedly…
He actually taught the class with such meticulousness and seriousness.
“Are you angry? This is a required course in mental learning. I’m teaching you how to protect yourself.”
“I’m not angry.” Jiang Qiuqiu shook her head. “Let’s continue! I’ll pay attention.”
“Very good!” Mo Si praised her for her proactive attitude, then reached out and placed a hand on Jiang Qiuqiu’s shoulder. “Let’s proceed.”
As the distance between them closed again, Mo Si couldn’t help but feel a strange sense of unease when he looked at Jiang Qiuqiu’s somewhat pale face.
Obviously… This was a common injury in mental training.
