Walker VS Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle

"Since the demon beast army obeys your orders, as long as you are killed, the beast horde will not want to make any more unnecessary sacrifices and will retreat on its own!"

Walker held his three-foot-long sword, its tip pointing directly at the giant bird in the sky. With a flick of his toes, he leaped upwards, soaring straight into the heavens.

A flash of azure light appeared in the void, and tens of thousands of semi-illusory sword shadows covered half the sky, surging towards the giant bird like a tide.

"Bah!!!"

A sharp whistle suddenly rang out, and the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle flapped its wings wildly. A fierce wind suddenly arose in the sky, and countless tiny whirlwinds collided and merged in the sky, forming hundreds of huge whirlwinds that reached from the sky and touched the earth, which collided with the sword light.

The sky rumbled, like muffled thunder in summer.

"I'd like to see how many of my swords you can withstand!" Walker roared, unleashing a series of powerful strikes with his cyan blade, creating several enormous cyan sword energies that stretched across the sky.

"Hmph, human, you underestimate me too much!"

Suddenly, flames surged on the wings of the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle, and with the flapping of its wings, two Flame River rushed forth, colliding with the azure blade energy.

"Boom! Boom!! Boom!!!"

The cyan blade energy shattered inch by inch, while the crimson Flame River dissipated foot by foot, staining the entire sky with cyan and crimson hues.

The impact of their battle not only caused the entire planet's surface to tremble, but also tore more than ten thread-like cracks, each tens of meters long, into the sky. Those below could clearly see these spiderweb-like cracks rapidly healing themselves through the self-repairing mechanisms of space.

The battle between the two was spectacular, but few had the leisure to watch or learn from it. Under the onslaught of the beast tide, the original nearly five hundred people were reduced to just over a hundred, each desperately trying to avoid being overwhelmed.

Liliath and Hake, however, willingly fed themselves to a giant python—a strategy most people wouldn't consider. Furthermore, demonic beasts have exceptionally sophisticated digestive systems; normally, entering one's digestive system is practically a death sentence.

However, Liliath's plan had taken this into account, so she and Hake did not enter the Unicorn Python's digestive system. Instead, they remained in its mouth.

After the Unicorn Python coiled around them, the two immediately used their daggers to secure themselves to the upper wall of its mouth. Furthermore, to avoid being Unicorn Python, Hake launched an attack along the upper wall of the python's mouth, directly crushing its brain.

The gluttonous Unicorn Python lost its life because it ate something it shouldn't have.

The two then hid behind the giant python's head, enduring the pungent stench, and observing the battle within their field of vision through the gaps. Their view included Walker and the Fire Feather Phoenix Eagle.

"Those cracks caused by their fight..." Liliath's focus wasn't on the fight itself. "If I'm not mistaken, if someone can tear a crack big enough for us to pass through, we should be able to escape this dream."

"A crack of this size is too small, and it's closing too quickly. Even if your guess is correct, we won't be able to cross it even if we find an opportunity." Hake had been watching the two fight, also shifted his attention after hearing Liliath's words.

"They are only true gods of the Eighth Sequence. It would probably take at least the Ninth Sequence to achieve this. If it were the Tenth Sequence, it would be even less of a problem." Liliath nodded in agreement.

"Finding Tenth Sequence is easier said than done. There's only one Baden on this planet, and as for Ninth Sequence powerhouses, there seems to have been no news of them for many years." Hake frowned. "Isn't there any other way to leave this dream?"

"I haven't thought of anything yet," Liliath shook her head.

"What if you die in a dream? You should wake up, right? I remember when I was a kid, I would have nightmares and when I was being chased and there was nowhere left to run, I would wake up in a fright. It should be the same principle," Hake suggested.

"It's different. Normally, the dreams we have during sleep are just caused by our consciousness drifting away. Once we are startled, we will automatically retreat, like the self-protection mechanism of some crustaceans, which is an instinct of consciousness. But this dream is a complete Dream World. Your consciousness and mine have both left our bodies and are completely immersed in it. Once we die, we will not only not wake up, but will fall into a deeper Dream World, and it will become increasingly difficult to wake up."

"We are currently in the First Level of the Dream World. Once we die, we will fall into the Second Level Dream World. A second death will send us to the Third Level, and so on. Each layer of the Dream World is incredibly realistic, so realistic that it's hard to distinguish between reality and illusion. If we fall into the Second Level after our demise, our chances of successfully escaping the dream will be less than half. If we die more than three times, the chances of successfully waking up will decrease exponentially, to less than one in a thousand. What I'm saying is not an exaggeration, but the experience of an illusionist."

When Liliath brought up the topic, her tone was very serious, and it was clear that she also found the current situation very difficult.

"What's the way to get back to the Real World?" Hake was eager to know the answer to this question.

"Judging from the current situation, we can only find a glimmer of hope in you," Liliath said, looking him up and down before continuing, "This Dream World was constructed based on your memories and imagination. In a sense, you are actually the supreme ruler of this world. But you, the supreme ruler, are a guy who has lost his crown and throne, and has lost control of this Dream World. If we can regain control of you, then we can leave at any time."

"So what should we do?"

"All we can do now is wait," Liliath offered a suggestion that sounded rather improbable.

"I don't quite understand, what are we waiting for?" Hake couldn't help but ask.

"Let things develop naturally. Since it's a dream, it can't be perfect. If there are weaknesses in the space, we might not need to rely on Advanced Sequence true gods to tear the void apart."

"Also, although I can't see what's happening in the Real World, I know that Gu Ding will definitely do everything they can to save us. So, what we need to do most right now is to stay alive as long as possible and stay on the First Level of the Dream World for as long as possible, so as to buy Gu Ding more time to rescue us."

Liliath remained convinced that Gu Ding would definitely find a way to rescue them. (To be continued~^~)
