Chen Ming shrugged and said, "No matter how you look at it, it’s a meeting on the Legion’s territory about something so important; there’s no way I can’t let you know, right?"

Bai Quan smiled but didn’t respond to this, instead saying, "Now you’re a big shot too."

Chen Ming instinctively glanced at the spot where Qiu Bowen and the star realm leader’s holographic projection disappeared: "It seems so."

The holographic projection patted Chen Ming’s shoulder twice virtually, and Bai Quan’s holographic projection also disappeared.

He Gu, who hadn’t left yet, immediately came over with a smile and said, "I feel like I’m just here to make up the numbers too."

"How could that be? The Ship Research Institute studies phase technology with ordinary people. Now that phase technology is linked to dimensional infection, it’s naturally related to Spiritual Energy. Of course, the Legion has to involve the Spiritual Ability Research Institute, right?"

Although this matter seems unrelated to the Spiritual Ability Research Institute, in reality, when expanding to the entire Legion’s perspective, dimensional infection is the most relevant issue to them.

It’s just that their scope of responsibility is larger, so their role doesn’t seem evident in this experiment.

He Gu, of course, knew this too. He pat Chen Ming’s shoulder twice virtually and similarly disappeared from the meeting room.

The president gave Chen Ming one last look, and the holographic projection also disappeared from the meeting room.

However, the president’s call soon came through to Chen Ming’s terminal.

Chen Ming glanced around; at this moment, only the director of the Ship Research Institute and some others he called in remained in the meeting room, discussing the specifics of subsequent actions.

Chen Ming left the meeting room first, went to an unoccupied corner outside, and answered the president’s call.

"Tell me, what’s the connection between phase space and dimensional infection?"

After confirming no one was around and no equipment could eavesdrop, Chen Ming asked, "President, you must have entered phase space, right?"

"Yes, after learning about the development of phase ship technology, I tried entering it myself, but I didn’t tell anyone. I had no time to manage the development of phase ships."

"But in the phase space, I didn’t feel any impact; the markers were just markers, so what did you mean at the meeting?"

Chen Ming replied, "It’s like this; what affected me wasn’t the markers, but something else."

"What is it?"

Chen Ming did not answer directly but said, "I have entered the dimension that is the source of the dimensional infection."

"What?"

The president immediately suspected he misheard.

Chen Ming repeated, "I have entered the dimension that is the source of the dimensional infection."

The president was momentarily at a loss for words, as he didn’t think Chen Ming was lying.

After a while, the president suddenly exhaled, "I also once found a way to enter that dimension, but before actually going in, I got scared."

"Because I sensed that if I went in, I would inevitably die, and it would be a death I couldn’t clearly perceive."

Chen Ming thought about the president’s past record, realizing he had been a level six Psychic decades ago but couldn’t enter...

"And now?"

"Almost, I might die, but it’s no longer certain death."

"But as I age, I have more and more responsibilities to shoulder. I can’t risk it anymore."

"The most I might do is try it when my time is nearly up."

Chen Ming thought about the last time he saw the president, who looked no older than forty: "Aren’t you quite young, President?"

"But in reality, I’m already over sixty."

"Forget it, let’s not talk about the past."

The president proactively ended the topic of the past and returned to the present, "You’ve been in, so can you tell me how you got in? When did you go in? What did you encounter?"

"I’d like to keep how and when I got in concealed for now. I’ll talk about what I encountered."

"Alright."

The president didn’t force Chen Ming, just listened.

After briefly considering his words, Chen Ming said, "I stayed in that dimension for about half a second."

"It was a crimson dimension, filled with all sorts of ’knowledge.’"

"This knowledge rushes towards whoever enters at that moment, and if you can’t handle it, the only result is going insane to the point of death."

Although Chen Ming spoke abstractly, the president seemed to understand his words.

He continuously compared what Chen Ming said to everything he had personally felt before.

Being overwhelmed by knowledge to the point of madness indeed aligned with the dangerous feeling he had when he could enter that dimension.

This made sense.

Meanwhile, the president silently thought in his mind.

Has Chen Ming recently been involved in any events similar to the dimensional infection besides what’s happening with Cai Mo?

Chen Ming could mimic the effects of a Spatial Ability User, but he wasn’t one.

If he could enter that dimension, it must be related to the dimensional infection event.

However, in his contemplation, there was absolutely no recent event related to dimensional infection, only the matters concerning Cai Mo.

Cai Mo...

The president shook his head slightly and asked Chen Ming, "So after entering that crimson dimension, what knowledge did you acquire?"

"Knowledge of Spiritual Energy. I gained a deeper mastery over Spiritual Energy."

"Could you be more specific?"
