A Line Connecting Dreams!

Night falls.

Inside a coffee shop.

Yang Lin changed into casual clothes and sat with Jiang Chen in a corner of the coffee shop.

As Jiang Chen stirred the pattern on his coffee with a spoon, he smiled and said, "Do you know why I'm targeting that guy?"

"I don't care about this."

Hearing Yang Lin's words, Jiang Chen raised his head and said, "Don't rush, let me finish. My second uncle and Lao Jin used to be sworn brothers."

"You can guess what they do without me saying it. Although it might not sound nice, my ancestors were indeed tomb raiders."

"At first, the two only did small business, but later the team grew and they had more and more people under them, and gradually they also took on some big jobs."

"Until one day, they found a large tomb in Hebei."

"There is something in that tomb that can be described as priceless."

"I don't know if you've ever heard of the story called 'Returning the Jade Intact to Zhao'."

"The He Shi Bi?" Yang Lin was immediately taken aback upon hearing this.

"You can't believe it, can you? When my second uncle and the others came back, before they could even confirm whether it was true or not, my second uncle was murdered that very night."

"What about the He Shi Bi?"

"I don't know. Maybe that guy sold it abroad, or maybe it was sold to some domestic collector," Jiang Chen said.

Yang Lin tapped his fingers on the table. "Are you sure that's the He Shi Bi?"

"As I said, there's no way to verify it, since I didn't see it with my own eyes; it was only mentioned in a letter left by my second uncle."

"What does this have to do with the tomb of that Qing Dynasty official you later robbed?"

Upon hearing Yang Lin's words, Jiang Chen's lips twitched. "Would I call that tomb raiding? What did I steal?"

"According to the provisions of the Criminal Law..."

"Stop, let's skip this, okay? Didn't you want to know about the Nine-Tailed Fox?"

"I'm telling you now, the Nine-Tailed Fox is a special organization that stands above all countries. They are in charge of all supernatural matters in this world," Jiang Chen said.

"Then what?"

"What happens next?"

"More information about the Nine-Tailed Fox."

"That's extra content."

Upon hearing this, Yang Lin took out his phone and said, "Come on, come back to the station with me for a cup of tea."

"Hey, hey, Comrade Imperial Guard, here's what I'll tell you. I'll tell you something else that I guarantee will satisfy you."

"Then our business ends here. You continue arresting your criminals, and I will continue being a law-abiding citizen."

Upon hearing this, Yang Lin put down his phone. "I'll listen to the rest before I give my opinion."

Jiang Chen took out his phone. "Do you have any memory of what happened six days ago?"

"I think there must be, after all, you asked me this question during the day."

"Then I can now tell you very clearly that this was done by the Nine-Tailed Fox. They used some kind of supernatural thing to carry out a large-scale global memory erasure."

"Their initial manifesto was containment, protection, and control."

"But now, they are using these supernatural things to achieve absolute control."

"Why are people nowadays unaware of these things, even though so many large-scale supernatural events have occurred on Earth?"

"The answer is already clear. The Nine-Tailed Fox is like a giant hand that blocks out the sun. They hide the truth and let everyone live in darkness."

"Their targets are many, including but not limited to people with superpowers who form alliances to protect themselves."

"I don't know why you're asking about this, but here's a friendly reminder."

"Ignorance is bliss; the more you know, the more terrified you become of the world."

"That's all I can tell you. Saying more wouldn't be good for either of us."

Yang Lin fell into deep thought.

Jiang Chen stood up, waved goodbye to Yang Lin, and said, "That's how the world is. They are the guardians, we are the prisoners, and you are the lambs."

After Jiang Chen left, Yang Lin remained silent for a long time.

Just then, a man in black robes wearing White Mask suddenly appeared in front of him.

The visitor was none other than Meng Qing.

He used the Snake Talisman to become invisible and sneaked into the coffee shop, then appeared silently in front of Yang Lin.

What are your thoughts?

Yang Lin looked up. "I didn't believe everything he said."

Meng Qing placed the Demon Blade on the table. "That's right. Don't believe everything others say. There are many things in this world that nature cannot explain. The Nine-Tailed Fox calls these things 'Containment Object'."

"Like this knife."

"Master, I have a question. What's your stance?" Yang Lin asked calmly.

Meng Qing's gaze sharpened. "Standard?"

"I am a selfish person; I only stand on my own ground."

"I don't care about the lives of most people. I don't oppose killing innocent people indiscriminately, but I don't approve of it either."

"Everything I do is for myself."

"You're an exception."

As Meng Qing spoke, he took out a document from his black robe. "This is a copy of the Nine-Tailed Fox's advanced internal cultivation method."

"You have exceptional talent. As long as you put in the effort, you will surely achieve great things."

Yang Lin picked up the document, glanced at it, and then took out a wooden carving from his bag.

"Master, there is something I would like to ask you to take a look at."

The moment Yang Lin took out the wood carving, Meng Qing's pupils dilated beneath his mask.

"Where did you get this?"

"It was in the hands of a Grave Robber Gang; they said they acquired it," Yang Lin said.

"Throw it away as soon as possible."

As Meng Qing spoke, his figure vanished instantly; he had recognized the wooden carving.

That's not a good thing.

That thing is related to 002 Li Yuan. Ordinary people cannot see the Silk Thread formed by Mental Power on it.

That Silk Thread connects to the world of dreams; it is a calamity, an ominous sign.

If it has any function, its only function is to communicate with the ancient, bygone existences in the Dream World.

This gave Meng Qing a bad feeling.

This wasn't the first time he'd seen this kind of wood carving; the Silk Thread resembled fishhooks sinking into the deep sea.

They are slowly pulling an invisible, terrifying thing up from the depths of the sea!

Dreams do not exist.

But when many people have the same dream at the same time and believe it to be true, the dream becomes reality.

Dream World.

A giant octopus-shaped monster opened its eyes, "Chu Yang... Meng Qing."

Do you think you can escape?

On the other side of the Dream World, both Starry Sky Principal and Qin Leng, both pure energy beings, locked onto Li Yuan.

Fifth tier, two bottles of Forbidden Potion.

Satan is listed as Forbidden Potion because it is a derivative sequence of Death, possessing the same ability as Death to tear apart the mental and material spaces.

The reason why Stardust is listed as Forbidden Potion is that it is another Immortal Body.

A pure energy body cannot be attacked by any form of energy; it can even absorb the energy from attacks by others.

There are no useless drugs among the Forbidden Potion.
