Chapter 1690: Chapter 429: The Subtle Use of Suppression and the Voice of Soul Imbuement

Dream Island.

Star Dust Pollen dances in the breeze.

The Explorer sits cross-legged in front of over ten Alien Race musicians, sharing his explorations.

This is an attempt.

He hopes the Alien Race musicians can depict the ambience he desires through music.

"During my journey, I’ve seen a city, a city nestling against an ancient giant tree, I stood afar, looking up, its canopy like a jade dome, sunlight filtering through layers of emerald leaves, forming soft beams, with motes floating beneath the tree’s crown..."

Before he finished speaking, the Wind Speaker "Yong’s" slender wings began to gently tremble.

It emitted a series of rustling sounds that grew stronger, like the breeze brushing against treetops, the subtle friction of branches and leaves.

The Explorer’s eyes lit up, immediately guiding:

"Yes, that’s the kind of wind sound, but please make it more gentle, like a greeting from afar, whispering to me."

Yong closed his eyes, adjusting the frequency of his wingbeats.

The sound became increasingly ethereal, spreading slowly in the air.

At this moment, the vines wrapped around the Vine Spirit Clan Qingxiu moved without wind, producing a dense rustling sound, interweaving with the wind noise.

"Still not enough." The Explorer slightly shook his head:

"From this city, I sensed a rich breath of Life. It’s a city where green and life coexist harmoniously; I need the music to have life force."

The Tide Clan member Xige seemed to understand something. She softly hummed a wordless melody, like the morning mist soaking everything, her ethereal voice seeped into the gaps of wind noise and leaf rustle, weaving them together perfectly.

They interwoven into a hazy beautiful scene seen from a distant view.

"Yes, just like this." The Explorer excitedly leaned forward:

"Please maintain this tone. Stone Hammer Elder, could you add some steady rhythms that feel like ancient tree roots burrowing into the earth?"

Stone Hammer Elder gently tapped his pincers on the shell chest, producing a deep "dong dong" sound.

Carrying a reassuring heft, it securely supported the other ethereal tones.

The Explorer listened to this nascent melody, continuing to depict with words:

"Now, imagine the motes dancing within the light beams..."

Yong instantly understood, adding twinkling high tones to the continuous background wind sound.

Different sounds preliminarily blended under the Explorer’s guidance.

At this moment, the Explorer felt like he was a conductor of hearing, balancing the harmony between all voices.

Though still lacking the desired musical feeling, the initial stage was quite nice.

The specific reason was not difficult to understand.

The creators need to enter his story first before emotionally resonating with him.

Specific techniques can be refined, but the soul’s touch must be empathically felt.

The current performance was more about technique coordination guided by his words, not a genuine emotional flow.

This issue also led the Explorer into contemplation.

Realizing that solely relying on language description is too lacking for emotional resonance.

Words can sketch outlines, but cannot convey the warmth of sunlight on the tree bark; cannot reproduce the floral scent carried in the wind.

Simply cannot make them deeply feel the impact of seeing that city then.

To solve this core issue, there seemed only one way, taking them adventuring.

Turning descriptions into personal experiences.

But evidently, that’s not realistic.

Not to mention, this group of Alien Species can’t use their own Space node Teleportation Array.

Even if they could, they wouldn’t go.

Only players can freely adventure in the Monster World, even Demigod Realm powerhouses find it difficult.

For these Alien Species of the Bright Star Sea Area, leaving the relatively safe haven, stepping into the unknown ahead, is essentially a gamble with Life as the stake.

Even he himself, exploring unknown scenes, faces great danger.

Struggling to assure his own safety, how could he possibly assume the responsibility of protecting these precious musicians?

Inviting them along is tantamount to sending them to a dead end.

At this moment, inviting these musicians along for adventure, equates to telling them: Come, let’s take the Huangquan Road.

Then he returns midway, but the musicians remain on the Huangquan Road.

This thought flashed and was promptly abandoned by the Explorer’s mind.

Regarding video footage display, it can indeed be arranged through Guidance authorization.

Directly displaying his recorded stunning footage to them.

But video display cannot offer the first-person experience like players.

The light screen shown externally, resembles watching TV, incapable of achieving immersive consciousness-like personal experience.

The core issue still lies in missing the journey itself.

He recalled the scene when he first saw that giant tree city.

After enduring a thirteen-day arduous trek, traversing Miasma Forest laden with a decaying aura, having encounters with lurking bloodthirsty creatures several times, thoroughly exhausted... Clearing through thick vine leaves.

That magnificent city basked in the sunset, encircling the ancient giant tree, thus unexpectedly collided into his view.

The shock and emotion of that moment, apart from the city’s own grandeur, also lies in the process of reaching it.

All the preceding hardships and perseverance laid an emotional foundation for this spectacle.
