In addition, there are various other means of peeping, which are so diverse and dazzling.
Under such circumstances, even if a late-stage cultivator wants to become invisible or sneak in and out of the Eighty-Six Palaces, it will be difficult for them not to be discovered.
But no matter what kind of peeking method, the ability to attach shadow cannot be found.
Therefore, Chen Hao came and went, and no one who was peeping in secret knew about it, nor did they find any clues.
From their perspective, the Eighty-Six Palace has not changed from the beginning to the end.
Chen Hao specifically looked at the faces and clothes of these hidden monks, and found that none of them recognized them. Even the clothes they wore were not the clothes prescribed by the palace. He had no idea where they came from.
Obviously, the people who sent these monks had already made preparations to avoid being recognized.
Chen Hao was not interested in pursuing it any further. After watching others peeking at him for a while, he felt a little tired of it, so he secretly used his nightmare ability.
These hidden monks were unaware of anything. In the last breath, their eyes were still peeping at the Eighty-Six Palaces without blinking. In the next breath, the surrounding environment suddenly changed. They were either in pitch-black darkness, or they were entering various kinds of darkness.
A bizarre fantasy.
The monks who were hiding were extremely shocked. They didn't know what was happening. They were panicking, whining and shouting. They even couldn't help but run around to see what was going on.
But in reality, they were all motionless, with dull expressions and empty eyes.
"It's fun, it's so fun..." Chen Hao smiled. After using his nightmare ability, he opened his eyes of illusion and looked at the nightmares experienced by these hidden monks one after another.
The Eye of Illusion can see through everything, and naturally it can also see nightmares, just like watching a movie.
Darkness, terror, terribleness, cruelty... all kinds of absurd nightmare scenarios unfold based on the memories of these monks.
And often the more you fear something, the more likely it will come.
Those who are afraid of bugs are covered in furry bugs with countless legs and ferocious faces.
Fear of the unknown is invisible, intangible, and unknown, but can accurately create all kinds of terrifying sensations, making people feel breathless and suffocated.
Those who are afraid of monsters will be chased by countless terrifying monsters.
Without exception, they all turned into weak mortals in the dream. Even if they retained a little bit of cultivation, they were not worth mentioning in the face of danger.
These monks didn't know about the weird existence of nightmares, and naturally they didn't know that they were being pulled into nightmares. They thought it was real, and they were all so frightened that they cried for their fathers and mothers.
Some simply collapsed, sat down on the ground, covered their heads and remained still, resigned to their fate.
Of course, the nightmare will not let them go. Since Chen Hao does not need to swallow emotions like the nightmare, the nightmare transformed by the nightmare ability is quite lethal from the beginning.
"Ah..." Amidst the screams, one monk after another died miserably in the nightmare.
After they die in the dream, they will die in reality. The two are synchronized.
There were no injuries on the body, and even the most detailed autopsy could not find the cause of death.
After the death of these monks, Chen Hao could clearly feel that their spiritual power did not dissipate with death, but condensed into a ball, floated towards him, and merged into the soul.
The soul immediately became plump and solid as if it had taken some supplement. Although its strength did not increase, it felt refreshed and nourished.
"Is this what it feels like to absorb spiritual power?"
Chen Hao absorbed it comfortably and thought to himself.
The weird nightmare can strengthen itself by devouring emotions and mental energy, but Chen Hao's soul absorbs mental energy and has no real changes other than comfort and nourishment. This can't help but make Chen Hao a little disappointed.
It's like killing an enemy but not getting any loot.
Although killing the enemy is already the biggest gain, Chen Hao habitually wants to reap all the benefits.
He thought for a while and came up with an idea.
When other spiritual powers came over, Chen Hao used the blood phantom's ability to directly transform them into spiritual powers, and then used the spiritual powers to fuse these lost spiritual powers.
He didn't know if this trick would work, so he could only give it a try.
The result was surprising. Wu Zhu's spiritual power merged into his spiritual body without any suspense, just like raindrops blending into a river.
Although the mental power of these monks was pitiful, and part of it would inevitably dissipate after death, and the nightmare ability only absorbed most of it, Chen Hao still felt the improvement in mental power and was very happy in his heart.
Chen Hao's mental strength was originally at the peak level of the late Mahayana. After the Red Light Tribulation and the Paper Man Kingdom in the Southern Mountains, it has increased a lot. Just based on the strength of his mental strength, he even far surpasses the world.
limit.
If Chen Hao were a purely spiritual creature, he would have already transcended the tribulation and ascended to heaven at this moment.
Although the mental body has no effect on physical objects, and when it is strong, it can only deal with creatures that are also spiritual bodies, but it is still a good thing.
As the saying goes, from quantitative change to qualitative change, as your mental strength continues to grow, different changes will definitely occur.
Chen Hao is looking forward to this.
And at least in front of your eyes, absorbing mental power to become stronger can also expand the range of the mental force field, making the nightmare ability stronger.
This is a real benefit.
In the blink of an eye, all the monks who were hiding and peeping were buried in the nightmare. They all froze in their original postures and refused to close their eyes.
After death, their hidden magical powers, spells or treasures lose their effect and are revealed one by one.
Chen Hao disappeared into the shadows and left quietly.
He did not prevent the fire from destroying the corpses, because this was outside the palace, a public space, and there was a large array of scanning records. If the corpses were set on fire, they would be recorded.
He didn't want to go to the trouble of sneaking into the core of the formation and modifying the records of the formation like he did before.
Anyway, the exposed body is a violation of the palace rules at first glance. The hidden peeping person is dead. No one will admit that he was sent by them. After searching, they probably won't find anything. In the end, they can only deal with it.
Leave and then let it go.
But the royal family and the forces that sent these secret peepers will definitely be shocked. At least for a short period of time, they will no longer dare to send people to secretly watch the Eighty-sixth Palace.
As for Concubine Zhang, Chen Hao didn't bother to think about how the 152nd Prince and the 97th Prince would react.
Anyway, his strength has greatly increased after acquiring the nightmare ability. If the other party dies, forget it for the time being. If they still want to kill him, then let them do it.
Okay, now that the new ability experiment has been tried, and the novelty is almost there, it’s time to calm down and practice hard.
After all, Chen Hao also plans to improve "Da Chaoyang", which will take a lot of effort.
After returning to the palace, Chen Hao first visited Du Xueqing, then returned to his room, sat down cross-legged, and started practicing seriously.
