Zhang Ming did not know whether doing this would alert [Unfulfilled Wish], but he had to take the gamble.
He had to rescue Gourd Lady!
Otherwise, even if he survived by sheer luck, he would spend the rest of his life in regret.
Without the protection of the Gourd's power, his soul clone began to burn fiercely.
"I... I've got it!!" Drenched in sweat, Zhang Ming clutched his beloved notebook. Only after finding it undamaged did he let out a long sigh of relief.
Wild joy welled up inside him. Life was full of surprises after all.
Even a Demon God could not account for everything.
He grew smug and viciously cursed inwardly, [Unfulfilled Wish], you fucking idiot!
[We escaped?!]
"All we can say is that we've escaped that mental prison for now." Zhang Ming turned around and saw his soul clone burning fiercely. It would soon burn away completely.
He ordered the clone to self-destruct, then severed their mental link.
[May I come out? I feel a little embarrassed staying in here... If I were outside, I could protect you better.]
"I don't need your protection right now. Stay put in there!"
[O... okay...]
He raced through the shattered dream, putting distance between himself and that mass of frenzied flames.
Countless monsters seemed to have noticed something and gave chase behind him!
Meanwhile, the soul clone trapped in the bottommost dream was slowly burning to death.
The instant the clone burned to death, the number of souls in the prison dropped from one to zero.
[Unfulfilled Wish]'s flames surged, searching everywhere!
Of course, with a domain between them, [Unfulfilled Wish]'s lingering power was still limited.
Soon, Zhang Ming reached the edge of this dream scene. Something like an invisible wall blocked his way.
These dream ruins were actually dreams
