Dream Weaving

The requirements were simple: enough Achievement Points.

According to the reward rules for conquering beauties,

the greater the item's potential, the stronger its power, the higher its beauty, the closer its connection to the original plot, and the more loyal it was to the host, the more generous the reward.

Among the beauties who were both powerful and beautiful, there were only a few: Bibi Dong, Bo Saixi, and Sea Witch. Spirit Hall seemed to have another female Titled Douluo, too.

He'd set aside the Titled Douluo for now.

There were many choices among those with decent potential and high beauty: Qian Renxue, Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Hu Liena, Shui Bing'er...

If he factored in the effects of Immortal Herbs, Zhu Zhuqing just barely made the cut as well.

The likelihood of achieving the goal... Staring at those words, Huang Tian's lips curled into a sly smile. Silently, he typed three words into the system interface: romance-obsessed.

The moment he learned what the Life is a Dream System could do, an idea had instinctively taken root in Huang Tian's mind: he could mass-produce reincarnators.

"Dreams?"

"Who says those are dreams? Believe me, I'll sue you for slander!"

"They're clearly my wives' memories of their past lives."

"Conquer beauties?"

"Conquer my ass!"

"Show off my abilities, offer comfort, play the hero, manipulate their hearts, hope for their approval..."

"All those old tricks are such a hassle. Wouldn't it be better to just give them a dream and let them realize for themselves that they're actually my wives?"

"Simple, straightforward, no fuss."

"Skip all those pointless steps in between and go straight to the result. Get it done in one fell swoop."

Huang Tian wrote down his first screening condition: romance-obsessed. He planned to use the process of elimination to choose the most suitable target.

But as soon as he looked up, he froze, not moving a muscle.

To his surprise, by this standard, not a single person had been eliminated except Sea Witch and Lingyuan Douluo of Spirit Hall, who barely appeared in the story.

"Nice!"

"No wonder this is the Romance-Obsessed Continent."

"Truly lives up to its name."

"But I like it. Romance-obsessed is exactly what I want."

"I can understand why people can't stand it when someone is obsessed with someone else. But what if she's obsessed with me?"

"Now that's a beautiful thing!"

Soon, Huang Tian added a second condition: strength. For his first wife, strength took far higher priority than potential.

The first thing about a no-frills product was that it had no backing. He needed enough security.

Forget Soul Hunting and all that. Just knowing Tang Hao was holed up in Notting City was enough to make him feel like thorns were digging into his back.

This time, most of the candidates were eliminated, leaving a choice between Bibi Dong and Bo Saixi. Huang Tian frowned deeply, hesitating.

Bo Saixi was on Sea God Island, where she bore the duty of High Priestess and could never leave for the rest of her life. That would make the backing he'd created for himself a wasted effort, with no practical effect.

As for Bibi Dong, according to the conspiracy theory, she was controlled by the Divine Realm throughout. Even without the conspiracy theory, her twisted personality made it risky to try to change her with a single dream.

What if he failed to win her over, and the dream's contents were seen by Rakshasa God and Asura God, revealing information about the future? That would be a real disaster.

With other options available, there was no need to take the risk.

"Wait, why does it have to be a human?"

As Huang Tian was agonizing over it, a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind, and he suddenly saw the light.

In an instant, all the words on the screen disappeared. Three new characters appeared in their place: Silver Dragon King.

If he weren't afraid God King of Destruction would smack him with a hammer, he might have been tempted to write Goddess of Life.

Aside from Goddess of Life, Gu Yuena was undoubtedly the strongest female deity. At her full strength, even Goddess of Life wouldn't dare compare herself to her.

There was no need to mention her power. She had once been a God King. She was the most beautiful woman in Douluo III, and she might even have the potential to advance further.

She was also a top-tier romance obsessive, willing to abandon the survival of her entire race for love.

"Woohoo, it's you!"

Huang Tian was instantly overjoyed.

He took another deep breath, doing his best to calm himself. A moment later, he began typing furiously, weaving memories of a past life unique to Gu Yuena.

In less than half an hour, he had produced a standard outline for a Douluo fanfic.

He'd read countless web novels, including plenty of brilliant Douluo fanfics, and he'd even written some himself.

He could say he knew the ropes. It was no challenge at all; he could do it with his eyes closed.

From the Silver Dragon King's perspective, she would watch a lone orphan rise rapidly from humble beginnings, create miracle after miracle, and step by step become a Supreme God King, ruling the Divine Realm while bringing blessings to all.

Along the way, he'd beat Tang San to a pulp, research new Martial Soul Theory, drive Yu Xiaogang to the brink of vomiting blood, foil Asura God's schemes, and save the world.

Of course, there had to be romance, too—every kind of sweetness, and love that lasted until death.

Once he'd finished, he read it over carefully, made a few tweaks, and nodded in satisfaction.

All done!

Perfect!

He immediately gave the system an order in his mind:

"Begin simulation."

The simulation function could fill in details missing from the outline, find flaws, and expose loopholes. It was one of the core modules of the system's Dream Weaving function.

Very quickly—bam!—two glaring scarlet characters popped up on the interface: [Failure]. Huang Tian's smile froze.

"What's going on?"

Huang Tian used his thoughts to open the details page. Only then did he discover that dreams couldn't be woven arbitrarily. In particular, if he wanted the target to believe completely that the dream was her own memory from a past life, without doubting its authenticity at all, certain conditions had to be met.

According to the simulation results, the outline he'd created had at least three major loopholes.

First, it didn't explain where the memories of the past life came from. A vision of the future suddenly appearing in her mind would feel more like the effect of some Soul Skill.

The Silver Dragon King would suspect that the Divine Realm had discovered her hiding place and was preparing to make a move against her.

The second problem was his excessive womanizing.

To prepare her for it in advance, Huang Tian had described in the outline how he already had many wives before meeting Gu Yuena. He'd also written that even so, the Silver Dragon King didn't mind at all and was determined to step into the mire.

The system judged that there wasn't enough buildup here to convince a top-tier romance obsessive.

Even if she chose to believe him, the likely outcome would be that she made the first move, using her own methods to nip the possibility of other wives in the bud, rather than accepting the situation and watching it all happen.

At this point, Huang Tian suddenly jolted.

"Only one wife left? Turning into a henpecked husband? How can that be?"

It wasn't that he was lustful; it was just that the system's mission required it.

Besides, many of the glorious achievements he'd attain in the future, as described in the outline, relied on continually earning Achievement Points and buying supplies from the shop.

For example, his Martial Souls. In Gu Yuena's memories of her past life, he'd awakened Twin Martial Souls with Innate Full Soul Power, rather than Blue Silver Grass with a mere 0.1 innate level.

He'd written that because he knew he would buy powerful Martial Souls after winning over the Silver Dragon King.

If he didn't meet the prerequisite, he wouldn't have enough Achievement Points to buy Martial Souls. Wouldn't that make her memories of her past life wrong?

And third, the villains were beaten down and crushed the entire time, leaving no room for emotional tension. Besides, Gu Yuena could handle many of those things herself.

After awakening her memories of a past life, the target might not feel sufficiently stimulated or pressured. She might choose to take charge herself instead of placing her hopes in Huang Tian.
