Mysterious Lord Meditation Art Upgrade! Xu Lang Had Money to Burn!

In the depths of the dream.

This place differed subtly from the outside world, but its basic shape remained the same.

Xu Lang lay on the Nightmare Bed, holding the Dream Bear in his arms, with Cao Yaxuan and the other women beside him.

Wisps of purple energy drifted through the air and condensed into purple coins.

Nightmare Coins.

Suddenly, Xu Lang giggled himself awake.

"At least two Nightmare Coins are coming in every second. Just one level of difference, and the drop rate has multiplied several times over."

"How did I ever survive those lean years?"

"Mwah~"

As he spoke, Xu Lang kissed the Dream Bear.

The kiss woke her, and she squirmed shyly.

Then she sprang out of bed and flew into the sky, circling as if on patrol, alert for danger.

The Dream Doll's original description included this line.

—Dream Dolls accompany the Nightmare Lord to sleep and guard the Nightmare Lord's dreams.

Could the Nightmare Lord be troubled by nightmares too? Xu Lang wasn't sure.

Every Sequence carried the risk of losing control. Whether the Nightmare Lord truly had no such risk, or whether it would emerge later, Xu Lang didn't know. He kept his guard up all the same.

Beyond that, Dream Dolls had two other core traits.

—Dream Dolls possess extraordinary divine power in dreams and grow stronger each time they sleep beside the Nightmare Lord.

—Dream Dolls can increase Nightmare Coin earnings.

The second was especially important.

Building momentum and snowballing—that was the foundation of Xu Lang's rapid growth.

Because he had built such a solid foundation, he had barely needed to spend Nightmare Coins to increase his strength later. That alone showed how important early growth was.

Effort was never wasted.

Hard work paid off in the end.

Xu Lang hadn't slept
