In the era of Absolute Tang Sect, Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power could undoubtedly rival that of a Titled Douluo or even a Super Douluo.

Whether the three Limit Douluo of that era had reached the Spirit Domain Realm was still a question.

After all, in the original work, they had never displayed the Spirit Domain Realm's unique Spiritual Domain or thought manifestation.

Yet Legend of the Dragon King explicitly stated that the Spirit Domain Realm was a prerequisite for becoming a Limit Douluo.

Huo Yuhao could only assume it was because of Soul Spirits.

The number and age of Soul Spirits were both tied to one's spiritual power realm.

By that era, there were no longer any wild Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts to be found on the Douluo Continent. One could only advance through Soul Spirits.

Advancing by absorbing Soul Rings required far less spiritual power than advancing by absorbing Soul Spirits.

All one could say was that humanity's desire to grow stronger truly could drive humans to explore the unknown.

After the God Realm disappeared, Soul Beasts on the continent had likely dwindled away. Some genius had refused to stop at the Super Douluo level and, through generations of research, developed a mature system for cultivating spiritual power.

They had even deduced the Spirit Domain Realm and Divine Origin Realm in one stroke.

At present, the only one by Huo Yuhao's side who had reached this spiritual power realm was Electrolux.

Huo Yuhao opened his eyes. The blue-gold eye on his forehead radiated emerald light as life force surged endlessly through his body.

One thing was certain: if Huo Yuhao's arm were chopped off right now, it could regenerate on its own even without the Reversal Technique.

Moreover, the pure life force of Life Gold could be converted into Destruction Power through the Reversal Technique. If Huo Yuhao could merge Destruction and Life, he could give birth to Creation Power.

But that was incredibly difficult!

The God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life had never had children.

And the only time they had fused Creation Power was when they resisted the Space-Time Turbulence.

They died right after using it.

Their God Positions had even been given by Tang Shenwang to his son and daughter-in-law. They were truly dead for good.

No one knew whether Destruction and Life, having lost their God Positions, could ever return.

Besides that, Huo Yuhao checked his status panel. His spiritual power had already reached 5,500 points, and it was still rising continuously.

Within the world perceived by his spiritual power, Huo Yuhao clearly saw the colors of the elements.

Water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and space.

Aside from the somewhat blurry color of the space element, every other element lay clearly before his eyes. They no longer played hide-and-seek with Huo Yuhao.

The Spiritual Endowment Soul Skill could fully affect these elements as well.

After checking his equipment, Huo Yuhao sent the Shadow Cat out of the secret chamber. It definitely could not keep following him on the journey ahead.

The cat did not pester him either. It crouched outside the chamber door, warily watching for any suspicious movement.

Its gaze was so resolute that it looked ready to join the Party.

Inside the secret chamber, Huo Yuhao summoned the Remnant Dream Blade from his right hand. Its pure white hilt, rippling with colored waves, slowly emerged from the back of his hand.

Until the blade, which reflected all sorts of bizarre and fantastical scenes, fully appeared before him.

Huo Yuhao gripped the hilt tightly and could feel the closeness and joy transmitted by the Remnant Dream Blade.

The surrounding elements were continuously erased, and even space let out a piercing shriek.

The several residents of the Sea of Consciousness watched the outside world tensely through Huo Yuhao's spiritual power.

They watched as Huo Yuhao slowly swung his blade, slicing space apart and revealing a colorful door before him.

Beyond the door lay a colorful, indescribably bizarre scene.

Huo Yuhao gripped his blade. Telekinesis covered his body, Kamui was ready, and Golden Armor clad him. Then he formally stepped into that place no one had ever set foot in.

Accompanied by a flash of intense light, Huo Yuhao completely entered the Dream.

The sight before him made his eyes widen. Not just him—even the well-traveled Electrolux fell silent, staring intently at those strange sights.

A Three-legged Duck, a moving Headless Puppet, an Infinite Loop Staircase, and Eye Monsters that looked just like Old Testament Angels.

In the distance, a Black Dragon was fighting a Teddy Bear.

Huo Yuhao even saw a ghost drifting leisurely past him.

Every now and then, it twisted its head one hundred and eighty degrees to glance at Huo Yuhao.

Then it entered a white mirror and vanished.

"Good heavens, I lived for a million years, and I never imagined the Douluo Continent had a place like this!"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was utterly stunned by the sight before him.

"Yuhao! I can sense an incredibly massive amount of spiritual power here!"

"Ten of me—no! Even a thousand of me put together wouldn't have that much!"

"And this spiritual power is so strange. It's especially mixed and chaotic, completely unusable, as if it came from countless different lives."

Electrolux's aged yet powerful voice chuckled. "Big bug, you really think highly of yourself."

"A thousand?"

"That is merely the surface."

"According to my divine sense, this place should be connected to every life in this Plane."

"Every living being unconsciously releases spiritual power here."

"Mixed and chaotic, that spiritual power forms all the creations before us."

"Little Yuhao, don't even think about absorbing this spiritual power. You will lose yourself!"

Huo Yuhao smiled awkwardly. "How would I dare?"

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm immediately perked up. "The spiritual power of all living beings?"

"Is there any of Bingbing's? I want to see!!!"

Huo Yuhao's face darkened. Having such a Love Brain beside him—and one that was even his Soul Ring—was simply embarrassing.

Sometimes, Huo Yuhao truly wanted to show Sister Yu's Photo Album to Tian Meng and thoroughly save his brain from the poison of love.

A Love Brain was simply like ice in this world! Touch even a little of it, and you would be trapped for the rest of your life!

To save him, they would probably have to try Electric Shock Therapy.

Fortunately, Elder Yi was worthy of being Elder Yi. Age truly brought wisdom, and he moved even faster than Huo Yuhao.

Gray Airflow viciously slapped the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm several times.

"You've lived for a million years and are still trapped by love and romance!"

"Is your bug brain full of filthy thoughts?!"

The Golden Tortoise nodded in agreement as well. "I think so too."

"Brother Sky Dream, you've lost the confidence of a Soul Beast. Not only did you take human form, but you're also letting your little head control your big head."

"Shameful! No, shameful for a beast!"

Electrolux added another blow at this moment. "Big bug, I looked at the Silkworm Exuviae you left Yuhao."

"Hiss~ Are you really not female?"

"According to the world I originally came from, you should be female."

The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm looked as though someone had stepped on his tail, his face turning red. Sometimes, a man's blush spoke louder than any words:

"Gray Ball! Don't slander me!"

"I am a man, without question!"

Huo Yuhao ignored the commotion in the Sea of Consciousness and continued following the Remnant Dream Blade's guidance.

Ever since arriving here, the Remnant Dream Blade had continuously sent Huo Yuhao messages.

"Human, this is my home!"

"I know where the Ocean is. I'll lead you there!"

So the most reliable thing on him was actually a blade?

Of course, that was only a joke. Huo Yuhao could feel Electrolux's divine sense constantly helping him stay alert.

Though Tian Meng was making a racket in the Sea of Consciousness, he was still using all his spiritual power to guard against every moving thing.

Even the Golden Tortoise was ready at any moment to activate the turtle shell on Huo Yuhao's left hand.

The world within the Dream had no concept of space, nor even a concept of time.

A road that looked distant might be crossed in just a few steps; a very short staircase made Huo Yuhao feel as though he had climbed for nearly two hours.

He could not help but let his imagination run wild. Could someone's Martial Soul ability possibly control staircases?

Even stranger, three Huo Yuhaos could exist on the same road at once, yet the three Huo Yuhaos could not communicate with one another, as though an entire world separated them.

Even Electrolux had no idea how to explain it. Here, he felt like a raw recruit.

He had originally believed that his knowledge was enough to handle the problems of this world.

Yet after staying beside Huo Yuhao for barely a month, all the unreasonable things surrounding him had dealt him a fierce blow.

It made him realize that he still had much to learn.

The group walked for who knew how long. A day, or a month? No one knew. The rules of time simply did not apply here.

Chaos and absurdity were the eternal themes of this place!

Fortunately, after Huo Yuhao kicked away a chicken with black feet that was also wearing overalls, he finally saw an Ocean.

It was a Pure White Ocean. Waves occasionally rose across its surface, splashing spray into the air.

That spray contained every color that could exist in the universe. It was magnificent, yet dizzying.

Fortunately, Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power was enough to resist that dizziness.

"Yuhao, use my divine sense and look carefully!!!"

Electrolux's voice rang out with extreme solemnity in the Sea of Consciousness.

With Elder Yi's divine sense, Huo Yuhao finally saw the true nature of those splashes!

Every drop of spray was a living being's memory!

That Ocean was the sum of all memories!
