More than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. During that time, Li Ming had been testing the loopholes in Dream Space.
Of course, this did not interfere with his cultivation.
His Soul Power had been rising rapidly every day, already soaring from level 22 to level 25.
For him now, cultivation was as easy as drinking water.
He simply did not know whether someone with innate Soul Power of level three would face a Soul Power bottleneck.
He did not know whether such a bottleneck would obstruct his path to greatness.
However, even if there was a bottleneck, he had a way to solve it: find some Immortal Herbs.
Li Ming shook his head, casting aside his distracting thoughts as he gazed expectantly at the Satellite Spirit in his palm.
Dream Space had basically been verified. Now, he needed to find some users for experiments.
For the first batch of users, he planned to choose ordinary people without Soul Power.
Because they had no way to resist his Soul Skill!
Li Ming began selecting the lucky ones.
After the Satellite Spirit fused with the Nightmare Beast Soul Ring, its extremely long-range detection abilities meant that anything the Satellite Spirit could observe could be targeted by the Dream Soul Skill.
He merely made selections on the map, and the first batch of users was quickly chosen.
When night fell, those ordinary people appeared within Dream Space.
Li Ming hid in the shadows and observed them, silently recording information.
There were no problems with data transmission. Their movements were normal and showed no lag, which meant there was no latency.
None of those ordinary people were missing arms or legs, which meant there was no data packet loss.
After one test after another concluded, Li Ming released the ordinary people with satisfaction.
Perfect!
A grin spread across Li Ming's face. It seemed Dream Space could proceed to the next stage: a true Closed Beta.
For this Closed Beta, he would select users valuable enough to be worth testing.
In the dead of night, a test with far-reaching consequences quietly began.
Li Ming was naturally still awake. Having fused with the Satellite Spirit, he now had a Satellite Map before him.
Under his control, the Satellite Map gradually enlarged until it finally locked onto a location.
The map even displayed its name.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan!
This was where the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan was located. Through the satellite's infrared camera, dense red dots immediately appeared across the map.
Every red dot represented a person.
As he continued zooming in, levels were even marked beside the red dots.
After searching for a while, he found several red dots and zoomed in further.
There were three red dots here. Judging from their positions, they were separated, though they appeared quite close together on the map.
One red dot was marked level 97, while another was marked level 95.
The Satellite AI had calculated those figures using a large model built from all kinds of data over the years, so there should not have been any errors.
As for the remaining one, it was level 79.
Li Ming raised his brows slightly and tapped the red dot marked level 79.
In an instant, a facial portrait appeared on the map. It was a facial image recorded by the Satellite AI.
If he was not mistaken, the man surrounded by two Title Douluo was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan's leader, Ning Fengzhi.
Li Ming placed one hand on the red dot and slowly closed his eyes.
In an instant, he became a satellite in the sky, looking down upon Douluo Continent. With a blink, the image rapidly enlarged until it focused on Ning Fengzhi's location within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.
However, the building obstructed his view.
With a thought, he activated the infrared camera, and a red human silhouette immediately appeared on the screen.
Judging by his posture, he seemed to be meditating and cultivating.
Li Ming extended his palm toward him. The satellite he possessed manifested two yellow Soul Rings.
Dream!
At that moment, he unleashed his Dream Soul Skill upon the level 79 Spirit Saint, Ning Fengzhi.
Ning Fengzhi, who had been meditating, frowned slightly as a wave of drowsiness washed over him.
His eyes suddenly snapped open, instantly dispelling the drowsiness.
"Who is it?"
The next moment, Ning Fengzhi rose to his feet and shouted sharply, vigilantly scanning his surroundings.
Before long, two figures barged inside. They were Chen Xin and Gu Rong.
"Clan Leader, what happened?"
The moment they entered, their eyes swept around the room, but they found nothing unusual.
"Someone used a Soul Skill on me. Although its power was extremely weak, I definitely felt it."
Ning Fengzhi frowned. He had thought some powerful enemy had infiltrated the place. After all, with two Title Douluo as his bodyguards, someone had still managed to use a Soul Skill on him. That alone showed how serious the situation was.
Yet nothing had happened. The two Title Douluo were completely unharmed and did not seem to have encountered anything.
How had the person in the shadows bypassed Chen Xin and Gu Rong to use a Soul Skill on him?
"Strange!"
Ning Fengzhi searched around, but truly did not find any enemy.
"Perhaps they left."
In the end, Ning Fengzhi could only speak helplessly.
"If it was not an illusion, then something definitely happened.
Perhaps a rat truly infiltrated our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.
Gu Rong, I will protect the Clan Leader here. Patrol the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and see whether any rats really slipped inside."
Chen Xin immediately said this. Naturally, he did not believe that Ning Fengzhi, a level 79 Spirit Saint, had sensed it wrongly.
Chen Xin then remained in Ning Fengzhi's room to guard him.
On the other side, Li Ming was not surprised when his Soul Skill was broken.
He was only level 25. How could a Soul Skill he cast possibly deal with a Spirit Saint?
This satellite could no longer activate its Soul Skill after it had been broken and needed some time to recover.
But that was fine. He still had more than a thousand satellites. He refused to believe Ning Fengzhi could reject him more than a thousand times!
Naturally, he was not worried that Ning Fengzhi would locate the satellite.
It would be strange if they could find it.
His satellites were in orbit high above Douluo Continent. The reason he could lock onto Ning Fengzhi from such an absurd distance was none other than the satellites themselves.
These were creations of human technology, containing all sorts of advanced technology.
Even Title Douluo could not fly very high, yet his Satellite Spirit could. The reason was simple: it was a satellite.
And satellites were meant to fly, which was why they could enter orbit.
The reason he could use Soul Skills from so far away was not because of ordinary human eyes, but high-tech cameras.
The answer lay in the technological creation that was the satellite itself, not in his Soul Power level or the results brought by Soul Rings.
Therefore, neither Ning Fengzhi, a level 79 Spirit Saint, nor the other two Title Douluo could discover the satellite's existence.
In this regard, he was practically invincible.
Li Ming continued controlling other satellites to cast the Dream Soul Skill on him.
Yet he broke free almost the instant it was cast, leaving Li Ming rather helpless.
But he refused to believe it. Could this man really be so stubborn? If he had the ability, then reject him a thousand times!
At that moment, Ning Fengzhi sat in his room, feeling waves of drowsiness continuously assaulting him as his brow gradually furrowed.
He glanced at Chen Xin, who was also in the room, yet Chen Xin had not noticed anything at all.
Chen Xin was a Title Douluo!
Someone had actually concealed himself beneath Chen Xin's very nose while casting a Soul Skill. That showed just how formidable the other party was.
Yet that was precisely what made it strange. If the other party was so powerful, how had he managed to break free from that person's Soul Skill?
After breaking free more than a hundred times, Ning Fengzhi narrowed his eyes and made a decision.
Since this Soul Skill was so weak yet so persistent, and Chen Xin, a Title Douluo, was guarding him, he might as well see what the other party wanted!
