The Dream Has Awakened
Each treasure is the culmination of a Supernatural Civilization, woven from the supreme laws of the immortal path. When they vibrate together and their patterns expand, one can imagine the consequences.
"This is the lingering effect of the complete decay of the Old Mythological World." Behind the Great Curtain, a supreme being spoke, watching the three supreme treasures resonate in the distance, but did not try to seize them.
At this critical juncture, the World-Crossing Sword, the Carefree Boat, and the Ascension Banner all activated on their own. No one dared to approach. This time was not suitable for capturing them, as their destructive power was astonishing and could wipe out the world!
At this moment, several supreme treasures streaked across the sky, seemingly floating in the flow of history, resonating with the supreme laws of this era, vibrating together, and influencing all extraordinary beings.
They seem to be lamenting, witnessing the collapse, repeating history, and bidding farewell to this civilization.
"Our era is coming to an end, the twilight of the immortals is approaching, it is truly unbearable, but we are powerless to stop it." Ling Luanxian spoke from the clouds, one of the few female immortals in the Sky-Veiling Realm at the Mutian realm, a red mole between her eyebrows reflecting various magnificent scenes from ancient and modern times.
Those scenes depict major events from the turbulent era of the Immortal Realm, including the grand scenes of the golden age when all the immortals made a vow, as well as the turbulent scenes of the decline of talents and the downfall of the old emperor. Everything has come to an end, and even the Immortal Realm will become a scene in her memory.
"It's like a long dream, and now the dream is ending. Everything will be gone." Someone whispered. Every time the treasure trembled, it was a reminder that the Immortal Realm was about to collapse.
Everyone can sense that the Celestial Realm is dimming and becoming infinitely weak. The Great Universe Error Correction, and this semi-material, semi-energy plane cannot last much longer.
"No one has ever truly become an immortal. All that exists are fragments of broken spirits that have escaped here, hypnotizing themselves in this illusory world, believing this to be the celestial realm and that they have achieved immortality. What is the truth? We are nothing more than remnant souls dancing in shackles, indulging in self-delusion. In reality, we died when we Ascension to Immortality. Our true bodies were destroyed by lightning, our remaining bones, carrying a sliver of life, are buried in this mortal realm. You and I in this illusory world are neither human nor ghost; we are not true immortals. We are merely Primordial Spirit Fragment from our tribulations, Dream Walking for many years!"
Some people, like neurotics, reflect on the past, saying that thousands of years have passed in vain, and the splendor of the immortal realm is nothing but fleeting smoke and a dream, and it's time to wake up.
"Listen to the funeral song of this mythical civilization, which is also our own funeral song. The Immortal Realm is about to perish." A supreme being walked on the land of the Immortal Realm, as if to remember the last scene. The curtain was decaying, and the extraordinary fire was about to be extinguished. From now on, they could only pursue everything they once possessed in their memories. It was as if they, who once possessed extraordinary power, had died!
As for the present world, the problems are just as serious. There is no longer Super Material, and the rules have completely collapsed. What we can borrow now is only a portion of the residual energy radiated from the Immortal Realm.
At this moment, the treasure trembled, as if it were wailing, revealing that there was a serious problem with the survival of the Immortal Realm Supreme Rule.
In the Old Earth, Ancheng, Zhou Qinghuang sighed, "It's so cruel. We've been suppressed again, and we feel the malice from the unseen forces. There's not even a shred of room for maneuver. Once the Great Universe corrects its course, the Mythological World will be bloody and a terrible sight."
Gu Mingxi said, "You're wrong. This isn't bloodshed at all. It's clearly the decay of Supernatural Civilization, just one last fire away from burning it all away."
Even two renowned fairies in the celestial realm were treated this way, so it's easy to imagine that everyone else was targeted and suppressed.
"What should we do in the future? Are we really going to consider Zhou Shiqian's invitation and form a group with her to make a living on the battlefield stage?" Gu Mingxi frowned.
Thinking about all the possibilities for the future, she was very anxious. If she didn't have enough extraordinary strength to protect herself, then she would have to arm herself with social status and wealth. Otherwise, a famous fairy like her might become someone else's prey.
Zhou Qinghuang adjusted her glasses and said, "The more you're in the spotlight, the more likely you are to attract greedy eyes. This kind of accumulation is even more dangerous. If all else fails, you should just marry a talented young man. I don't really like men anyway."
In the present world, this shockwave is unprecedented. Even the lower-level cultivators were shaken, and those at the top of the pyramid were naturally the most affected. They were violently slammed on the heads by the ceiling, an unbearable weight.
However, many people were not afraid this time because they were used to it and numb to it. What else could they do? In a few more months, all their cultivation would have dissipated with the wind, so they wouldn't care about a few more shocks at this stage.
At this time, many extraordinary individuals are using their still-powerful Mental Power to learn various modern knowledge, from art to warships, from humanities to scientific research, covering all aspects of life.
Many others have already found angel investors and started businesses using what they can still control. For example, large quantities of herbs from the celestial realm are being transported here for cultivation, and existing technology is being used to analyze various elixir formulas, attempting to replace the original spiritual medicines with ordinary herbs.
Wang Xuan seriously doubted whether he was hallucinating. As he left, he vaguely heard a faint howl coming from deep within the meteorite tunnel, a sound that was both mournful and eerie.
Even when he looked out with his Spiritual Heavenly Eye, he caught a fleeting glimpse and, in a daze, seemed to see a deathly pale face.
"Is it an illusion? Or is it the real source...? Is there a monster? I smelled the fragrance of flowers shooting into the sky. Is something coming?" He wondered to himself.
"Or perhaps, the demonic flower has given birth to something, or it's due to my mental mutation, or there's a split version of myself here, waiting for me to subdue it?"
"Never mind, next time I advance to the twelfth level, I'll kill them all, merge them all, Only I am True, Only One!"
Wang Xuan left the meteorite passage and paused by the Life Pool, where he pondered, drank tea, relaxed, and took a short rest.
The First Immortal Tea is lush and verdant, bearing various tea fruits—golden, shimmering with silver light, steaming with purple mist... The colorful tea fruits are quite beautiful, shrouded in Light Mist, and very sacred.
The leaves of the trees were covered with fragrant dew. Wang Xuan's incarnation Yanyan, personally picked tea leaves and collected the dew, while his incarnation Fang Yuzhu, used the lid of Nurturing Life Furnace as a teapot to brew tea.
As for Zhang Daoling, who was transformed into a human, Wang Xuan instructed him to copy scriptures there and silently comprehend the Dao.
The incarnation of the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor was locked in fierce combat with the incarnation of the Demon Ancestor, a battle that drew frequent nods of approval from Wang Xuan, who watched with considerable interest.
Of course, his leisure was only temporary and brief. In no time, Yanyan rebelled, abandoning her tea and fruit. What looked like a gentle touch on his shoulder was actually a powerful, white fist that suddenly erupted and began to attack him viciously.
In fact, all the incarnations here are him, and they are all proud. None of them think of themselves as clones; they all want to be the main body and will challenge him from time to time, wanting to take his place and go to the mortal world.
Fortunately, they are all confident for now and are engaged in a chaotic melee, not ganging up on Wang Xuan alone. Otherwise, he would have had no choice but to use the furnace lids to suppress them.
These people are supported by the patterns of that strange paper within their bodies, making them extremely powerful, and they possess traces of the Sky-Veiling Mirror.
Finally, Wang Xuan couldn't take it anymore. He packed up a lot of tea and fruit and ran away. At this stage, he really couldn't subdue so many incarnations, and there was still no hope of advancing to the twelfth rank. So, he had no choice but to leave.
He returned and immediately saw Chen Yongjie's young yet resentful face staring at him.
"I was by your side, and I even had the Good Fortune True Crystal, which allowed me to absorb near-real matter, but I was still shaken off by you!" Old Chen was very frustrated.
He went from nearly 9th dan to the early 8th dan, which wasn't too outrageous overall. However, Wang Xuan realized that the ceiling must have been hit harder.
If you were by his side in the past, absorbing the overflowing substances of the same origin from him wouldn't cause you to drop in your cultivation level.
Indeed, that's true; the earthquake was excessive this time.
Deep in the universe, inside the ancient spaceship, Fang Yuzhu, the Demon Lord, Zhang Daoling, and the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor were all severely shaken. Despite using all their methods, they still lost their cultivation levels, falling to the third level of the Carefree Journey. This time, they were unable to defend against it!
"It actually broke through the defense. It will be very difficult to get back up!" Old Zhang was a little incredulous. With a bang, he threw the broken mirror that was stuck to his face to the ground.
Following this trend, even if the main body in the grand scheme returns and Fusion and Unity with them, they will still find it difficult to obtain the Earth Immortal Dao Fruit when the extraordinary fire is finally extinguished.
"The earlier estimates were too optimistic. Let alone Earth Immortals, even those at the early stage of the Carefree Journey realm will probably find it difficult to maintain their level in the end. I hope we don't regress too much!" The Nether Blood Sect Ancestor was the most pessimistic.
"We were shaken off our feet as soon as we got back. Not long ago, our primordial spirits departed. What exactly happened during those last moments?" Demon Lord Yanyan tried to recall, but couldn't remember at all.
In Fang Yuzhu's words, Wang Xuan constructed them in his spiritual meditation. Everyone was his incarnation. They studied the Great Law of Mental Illness together and participated in solving it. In a sense, it was Wang Xuan himself who performed all of this. He was creating an alternative method.
Now they've returned, and everything has vanished without a trace; they have no memory of what they were involved in.
However, they knew that the disappearance of the primordial spirit's light was related to Wang Xuan, because Qing Mu sent a message and provided physical evidence that Wang Xuan had almost collected half of the skirt, which made the Demon Lord Yanyan quite uneasy!
"Could this tremor that followed be related to Wang Xuan?" Zhang Daoling wondered, but then he dismissed the idea, saying, "It's unlikely. It's mainly caused by the tremors of several supreme treasures, which are constantly affecting the Immortal Realm Supreme Rule."
"The dream has awakened, and the mental problem is solved." After Wang Xuan returned, he became one with his physical body. In an instant, his flesh and blood began to undergo a qualitative transformation. A large amount of active substances flowed, transforming his body. He was changing from head to toe.
This dramatic acceleration of metabolism truly surprised Chen Yongjie and Qing Mu, far more intense than Wang Xuan's usual process.
To advance from the Ten Stages to the Eleventh Stage, Wang Xuan shed his skin three times in a row, leaving the ground covered in blood and various kinds of mucus, all of which were substances from intense metabolism.
This was a transformative change, a leap forward to the forefront of the field. It was as if he had been reborn, his strength increasing more dramatically than ever before, and his life level and combat power growing significantly!
"This realm can be called the frontier," he muttered to himself. Since he had reached the end of theoretical research, he could name it that. If he wanted to continue, he would have to cross the frontier and find New World.
He had a feeling that with the Nurturing Life Furnace, he could travel far in the mortal world. Even if that evil dragon came again, he would fight it first.
There were things he couldn't do before, but now he can. He wants to go into deep space!
Twenty minutes later, the second chapter will also be uploaded; it'll be ready soon.
