Capítulo 185: MD-Chapter 184 The First Time Opening My Eyes!
The Ancient One's words were so cryptic that Arthur was left dazed.
What does it mean to be "within" or "outside" the world? Why is the relationship between his power and the world so unclear?
However, upon closer thought, Arthur realized that the Ancient One's statements weren't entirely wrong. The Disassembler Disassemble weapon and item did indeed come from a broad range of sources.
All powers were converted into colorless small crystals, eventually becoming his own colorless energy. It could indeed be said to come from all things.
But what does it mean to transcend all things?
"There is a world within you."
The Ancient One's enigmatic words once again reached Arthur's ears.
Arthur looked down in curiosity and then scratched his head, "Well, this world inside me can't be very big."
In novels, he had read about similar descriptions. Those who practiced intensely would sometimes create a world within their own body. What was even more terrifying was that such worlds could often give birth to life.
Not just life, but even people! They would live, reproduce, and create unique cultures until one day, a monkey child would shout, 'I control my own fate,' and make a hole in 'heaven,' only to discover that they were actually inside someone else's belly…
Arthur quickly shut down his wandering thoughts. His own belly probably didn't have that many 'people,' so he didn't need to worry about being 'forced' into reproduction.
The Ancient One had no idea of the chaotic thoughts swirling in Arthur's mind at that moment.
She continued seriously, "The language of mysterious spells has existed since the birth of civilization. Long ago, Sorcerers referred to this mysterious language as spells. We extract power from other dimensions within the multiverse, recite spells, and forge shields and weapons to cast spells."
She paused here, seemingly organizing her thoughts, and then continued, "But you are different. Although you exist within the world, you are independent of it. In a normal manner, you would not even be able to perceive the multiverse. This is because… you yourself represent a world. Your spirit cannot connect to the multiverse. Even with precise spells, you can only mobilize your own self, not the world."
Arthur was a bit stunned. After all this, it seemed that the implication was… he was a magic novice.
"But you are also uniquely gifted."
The Ancient One's next words opened a new door for Arthur: "Although you cannot feel the multiverse and cannot draw power from it, you are a world unto yourself. You only need to sense your own self to wield your power and unleash incredible phenomena."
"Remarkable!"
A trace of excitement appeared on the Ancient One's face. "No wonder you slept for so long. You once came into contact with one of the most fundamental powers in this universe. But instead of being assimilated by this power, you assimilated it, incorporating it into your own body! This is… astonishing!"
"Do you realize!"
The Ancient One suddenly came closer to Arthur, placing her hands on his shoulders and looking at him as if he were a rare treasure. "In the future, you might… become a true immortal!"
Arthur felt like a bystander, watching the Ancient One in her mystical state.
Is she talking about me?
Should he break into a song, "We Are Different"?
"But not right now…"
The Ancient One spoke again, "You still have a long, long way to go. You need to learn to use yourself…"
Arthur glanced at his right hand instinctively and then quickly shook his head. Such whimsical thoughts were clearly inappropriate at this moment.
"Don't be in a hurry to reject." The Ancient One seemed to misunderstand, "What I can teach you is limited, but I hope to help you achieve greatness. You need to learn meditation and understand your own definition. Right now, you are still too weak. But it's alright. You are favored by fate and will eventually become extraordinary…"
At this point, a trace of sadness appeared in her eyes.
Arthur couldn't understand where this sadness came from and didn't know what to say.
The Ancient One, however, continued to smile, "You are good, at least very honest. You have found your heart and your own laws. At least so far, what I see about your future… once again fills me with hope."
"Hmm… What kind of hope?"
Arthur blinked.
"This hope… is change." The Ancient One clearly had a knack for being mystical.
Arthur was somewhat exasperated; this seemed no different from saying nothing at all.
"You will know in the future."
The Ancient One let out a soft sigh, "In return for your honesty, the knowledge of Kamar-Taj can be opened to you. You are not a student of Kamar-Taj, but you can receive its friendship."
"So what… should I do now?"
Arthur felt that despite all the grand promises from the Ancient One, there was nothing concrete. After all, no matter how impressive the Ancient One's praises of him were, he was still not a match for her, nor for that old man from Asgard. Even Thanos, who liked to collect stones from the universe, was beyond his current abilities.
The Ancient One had painted him a grand picture, but now he could only look at it and not enjoy it.
"Follow what is in your heart. What do you wish to do now?" The Ancient One asked.
Arthur scratched his head, "I want to learn meditation."
"Then I will teach you."
The Ancient One was a woman of her word. As soon as Arthur finished speaking, she promptly placed him on a chair.
Immerse in thought, understand yourself, empty your mind, and shift your spirit!
The Ancient One used many technical terms, then explained in layman's terms: "Close your eyes, stay alert, don't let your mind wander. You will lead yourself into a wonderful realm."
Arthur closed his eyes and tried hard to empty his thoughts, but he couldn't feel his own spirit.
In his drowsy state, he was worried that he might fall asleep.
Just as he was about to drift off, a voice appeared by his ear: "Seek the mysteries within your body! Then open your eyes…"
The voice was not loud, but each note seemed to fall directly on his heart. In an instant, Arthur's mind felt like it had plunged into a misty dream, and he opened his eyes in a daze!
Brilliant like the galaxy, even more dazzling than the universe!
Arthur saw countless large stars, each as massive as the sun, but emitting a strong white light.
"What is this…"
Arthur muttered, staring at the scene before him.

It seemed like the universe, yet it was absolutely not as big as one!
Huge stars moved within it, their trajectories creating a fascinating and unique aura in their surroundings.
The stars swirled around, dense yet completely non-interfering.
"This is… the true nature of the colorless energy?" Arthur tilted his head in thoughts he silently muttered to himself. "It's so much larger than I… imagined!"
He had always been able to feel the state of his body but had never really 'seen' it for himself.
He could never have dreamed that the power he relied on so much had such a dimension.
With a thought, the white light instantly surrounded his body, changing its shape according to his will and thoughts.
This power guided Arthur, allowing him to traverse freely between these 'Stars,' suddenly appearing 'above the heavens,' and then dropping into the 'abyss.'
Suddenly, Arthur saw blue mist swirling outside the white light.
With a thought, the entire scene began to shrink, and he soon saw the true nature of the blue mist.
It was a mass of blue light, surrounded by blue particles, with a faint glimmer at the center that was impossible to clearly see.
Arthur thought for a moment before he plunged into the blue light, only to find that the faint glimmer he had seen from a distance had completely disappeared from his view.
Instead, he unexpectedly discovered a white light band embedded within the blue mist, forming a weak junction that continually transformed into the blue mist.
"Is this Spatial Energy?"
Arthur was somewhat stunned as he looked at the white 'light band,' which was his colorless energy.
"There seems to be a subtle connection between colorless energy and blue light. They seem to be forming a kind of… coexistence?"
He frowned while pondering the possibilities: "The blue light must be spatial energy, its color almost identical to the Tesseract. But why can colorless energy transform into spatial energy? Hmm… I did Disassemble some space energy weapons created by Schmidt's people back in the day. Could this be the reason? Because colorless energy inherently has spatial energy properties, it can connect and transform?"
Following this line of thought, Arthur muttered: "And the reason this blue light is blue is due to the residual effects of forcibly disassembling the Tesseract. They didn't go through the 'magic extractor' conversion, so they didn't become colorless energy. The instant teleportation skill I've been using is achieved with this power."
"But…"
Arthur scratched his head: "Colorless energy can transform into spatial energy, so why can't spatial energy transform into colorless energy?"
As this thought arose in his mind, Arthur suddenly felt a wave of dizziness. The next moment, the colorless energy abruptly withdrew from his body, and a massive suction force came from behind him.
He felt himself speeding away from the swirling blue mist and white light and stars became mere specks, growing increasingly distant until they finally disappeared!
"Whew!!!!!!"
Like a drowning person gasping for air, Arthur abruptly opened his eyes and began to breath heavily.
"It's okay, calm down!"
The Ancient One's voice reached his ears: "You need to relax, calm down. Control your breathing…"
After catching his breath, Arthur finally recovered to normal, though his mind still felt a bit dizzy. He shook his head and asked, "Does every meditation session end up like this?"
"No."
The Ancient One thought for a moment before saying, "At least not for us."
"...Then, what about me?" Arthur blinked.
"I don't know." The Ancient One shook her head and said, "You are a completely different individual from us. You will have your own experiences, and nothing from the past can serve as your teacher on this path. Only you can gradually seek out possibilities and forge a path that belongs to you alone."
"…"
'As a teacher, isn't saying something like this a bit irresponsible?' Arthur thought this but didn't voice it out loud and he could only silently grumble in his mind.
"What did you see?" The Ancient One suddenly asked with a curious expression on her face.
"The power that's like the universe… I feel like I'm invincible, you know?" The corner of Arthur's mouth twitched as he spoke.
"Believe me, you're still far from that." The Ancient One considered for a moment and said, "But what you saw should be your own power. You need to understand it, analyze it, feel it, and eventually learn to use it."
Arthur thought for a moment, and a streak of white light appeared in the palm of his hand: "Like this?"
"This is not usage; this is mobilization."
The Ancient One glanced at the white light, then lightly waved her hand in the air. The next moment, the white light turned into flames.
"I'm familiar with this flame," Arthur said. "I could do this from the very beginning."
"What about this?" The Ancient One's fingers moved again, and the flames turned into ice, then into lightning, and finally into a whirlwind…
When everything settled, Arthur spoke with a helpless expression on his face, "Are you using my hand to perform magic tricks?"
"No, I'm just stimulating its inherent properties, altering its characteristics."
The Ancient One said, "Your power doesn't have any precise characteristics, but you can transform it into any imaginable characteristics. To achieve this, you still need more learning. Go ahead, even though you cannot learn the magic of Kamar-Taj, knowledge remains constant. You can freely read any books you wish here."
After a pause, she added, "Finding your own path might be a bit early for you now. Before that, you should try to understand yourself better."
…
…
After parting with the Ancient One, Arthur felt a bit lost.
How did he end up not understanding himself?
However, the colorless energy indeed contained many secrets. After the Ancient One's somewhat vague explanation, Arthur felt that the secrets of this power had only grown more complex.
"Next, perhaps I should focus on understanding myself as much as possible and seek more possibilities."
He took a moment and then thought, "When I use instant teleportation, what changes occur in that blue mist?"
After pondering for a while, he smiled: "I can't stay in Kamar-Taj forever; there are many other things I need to handle. But since I'm here, I'll take this opportunity to dig into some things I didn't know before; there might be unexpected surprises."
"What if I disassemble a few books from the Ancient One's library? What would happen?"
Arthur glanced at the library's direction and then shook his head. Such a reckless approach is definitely not advisable!
