Chapter 1521: The Dawn of the Manifestation of Order Force, Re-entering the Heavenly Realm

Xia Duo still could not perceive Yalun, Mengte, and the others, but these names, including Sikabeilumu, had already become inherent attributes of the Order Force, capable of being perceived and utilized by Xia Duo.

The operation to drive the 【Special True Name Order Force】 cycle was no different from other Order Forces, only that during this process, the migration direction of the Order Force was inconsistent with other Order Forces.

As for the Outer Planes, Xia Duo did not pay much attention at first, but as the first passive cycle was completed, he discovered something was wrong.

Originally, in a state of deep Perception, he could not perceive the Soul; the Soul must be in a state of high concentration to be perceived, and Perception itself and concentration are two directions of conscious activity.

The former is divergence, while the latter is tightening.

But now, Xia Duo was in a state of deep Perception, and Spellcasting itself was already very strenuous, let alone perceiving the Soul, which required even more concentration than Spellcasting. (The former perception is similar to a Priest's perception, requiring divergent consciousness, and counts as a technical term; the latter perception refers to the process of consciousness receiving information, which is the original meaning of perception, or one could say it is consciousness seeing.)

Yet, it was precisely in this state where one should not perceive the Soul that Xia Duo perceived the Soul.

Initially, he only vaguely felt the existence of the Soul, but as this 【Special True Name: Order Force】 cycle was completed time and again, Xia Duo's perception of the Soul became increasingly clear.

Until reaching a certain limit, this perception underwent a qualitative change, just like a nearsighted person suddenly putting on glasses; Xia Duo had a premonition that from now on, he might not need to enter a state of high concentration to perceive the Soul.

At this moment, the Soul he perceived was exactly the same as the one perceived in a state of high concentration, including the Mysterious Glow excited on the surface of the Soul, as well as the small space reflected by the glow.

Of course, this also included the scene of the Outer Planes within that space!

Just at this moment, other Order Forces that Xia Duo was not actively controlling suddenly became active, and the Order Cycle seemed to have accelerated quite a bit.

At the same time, the Mysterious Glow around the Soul also grew at a speed almost visible to the naked eye!

This unexpected change left Xia Duo both happy and startled; what made him happy was that the Mysterious Glow outside the Soul had finally found a way to replenish quickly, making it more convenient to travel back and forth to the Outer Planes in the future, and at the same time, it further proved that the Order Force was real and not illusory.

But the shock was no less significant.

Xia Duo was not yet sure what consequences the collapse of the Order Cycle would lead to, although as far as the current situation was concerned, only the reality order affected the Order Force, and the Order Force did not affect reality.

But under the premise that the Order Force was real and not illusory, the Order Force would almost inevitably affect reality; it was just a question of what form it would take.

If the reality order collapsed because of an accident in the Order Cycle, that would truly be an unprovoked disaster!

Regarding the sudden change in the Order Force, Xia Duo acted very cautiously, almost immediately taking active control of the Order Cycle.

At this time, the Order Force's replenishment of the Mysterious Glow outside the Soul stopped immediately; the cycle was still the same cycle, only the speed was slightly slower than at the beginning, and there was no increase or decrease in the Order Force itself.

Xia Duo immediately realized that the Order Force interfering with reality probably did not involve direct interference using the Order Force; there should be some specific conversion interference methods.

The Order Force is related to the reality order; as long as reality does not change, the Order Force itself should not have any changes, and the cycle is an extra attribute that appears under artificial operation.

Perhaps the manifestation of the Order Force is related to the Order Cycle!

Thinking of this, Xia Duo released his control over the Order Cycle again, letting it run on its own, hoping to discover some clues from it.

But until the glow reached a certain limit and the Order Force no longer replenished it, he still failed to discover any clues, and he even had no discovery at all regarding how the Order Force replenished the glow!

"What exactly is going on here?"

Xia Duo was completely baffled; the only thing he could be sure of now was that the 【Special True Name: Order Force】 played a very critical role in his ability to perceive the Soul while simultaneously perceiving the Order Force!

As for exploring the process of the Order Force replenishing the Mysterious Glow, it would require long-term planning; at the very least, he would have to consume the glow before he could continue to attempt replenishment.

……

Thinking this way, Xia Duo already had an idea; his consciousness returned to reality, and Niya was still quietly leaning on him. Xia Duo moved, and Niya immediately noticed:

"What's wrong? Are we going back?"

"Yes, I suddenly remembered something, and it's not convenient here."

Actually, it wasn't that it was inconvenient, but that he was uneasy, but the meaning was about the same. Niya did not pursue the question, just nodded slightly and was about to call the Tower Spirit to teleport.

But Xia Duo stopped her, "Go to the Territory Logistics Department with me to get something before we go back."

"Okay." Niya naturally had no objections.

……

Tower of Time, top-floor Study.

Xia Duo and Niya were still sitting close together just as they were in the Territory, facing the Projection Window, watching the busy scene of the Daxia Territory residents in the projection. Niya couldn't help but ask curiously:

"What are you doing with those tools?"

"Using them, of course, but not by me; they are for someone else to use. As for who, let me keep a little suspense and tell you later!"

It wasn't that Xia Duo didn't want to tell Niya about the Outer Planes, but that Niya's connection with the Princess had not been interrupted, and it was even more convenient to contact her than before; he did not want to expose that village in the Boundless Wilderness to the Princess's eyes too early.

Of course, it was possible that the Princess already knew, but from Xia Duo's own perspective, he certainly wouldn't abandon his existing plans and preparations just because of this possibility.

Fortunately, Niya always knew how to be discreet and knew that Xia Duo had his reasons for doing so, so she did not continue to ask.

And after Xia Duo adjusted his state slightly, he activated Soul Transition and arrived at the Outer Planes, the Boundless Wilderness, next to a nameless small village.

"Yalun, Mengte, I've come to see you again!"

Hearing the voice, two vigorous figures immediately darted out from the village; the people who came were not Yalun and Mengte, but Yalun and Sikabeilumu.

Although Mengte highly identified with Xia Duo's ideology, due to his own personality, he was not particularly enthusiastic about Xia Duo personally, and instead often bickered with him.

However, it was precisely because of this that Xia Duo had some feelings for Mengte that were different from others. As for calling Yalun, it was because Yalun, with his outstanding leadership ability, was considered the person in charge of this village now.

"Xia Duo!"

"Lord Territory Lord!"

Yalun's attitude toward Xia Duo was not out of line; he had always believed that Xia Duo was a traveler, while Sikabeilumu, although he had lost most of his memories from his previous life, had not forgotten Xia Duo, this Territory Lord.

And perhaps because of the reincarnation, Sikabeilumu's brain seemed to be missing a few strings; he was respectful and obedient to Xia Duo, a bit like an artificial intelligence that had set a target for allegiance and had its loyalty attribute maxed out.

Of course, regarding Sikabeilumu's unusual performance, Yalun and the others had never shown any abnormality from beginning to end; perhaps this was also due to the reincarnation.
