The modified Soul-Guiding Banner was erected, and the chaotic thoughts surging throughout Shengxin's body seemed to have found a breakthrough, rushing into the Soul-Guiding Banner.
It can only be said that, as a race known for its spiritual power, the distracting thoughts within Shengxin's body were quite numerous and complex. After the cleansing was completed, the entire banner was dyed black.
With his distracting thoughts cleared away by Li Xingkong, Shengxin's condition improved significantly.
Although she was in better condition, her eyes were no longer as innocent as before; instead, they had become somewhat clouded.
The return of so many memories still affected her condition.
Moreover, Li Xingkong keenly sensed that the state of the entire dream world had also changed; the whole world seemed to be evaporating, and it looked somewhat unstable.
"She's waking up, come quick!"
Li Xingkong sensed something was wrong, so he immediately sped up his work and then spoke to the last few dragons remaining.
"Coming!"
They had witnessed the changes in the world, and the sight of the world before them, as if they had been thrown into flames, gave them goosebumps.
Li Xingkong and sent Geraint and Black Dragon away first. The two large groups of consciousness surged out as they left and flew towards the location of the Shengxin.
Courage and power—these are the core of these two concepts.
Although it appears to be a positive emotion, this awareness has a significant impact on Shengxin at this moment.
Li Xingkong reached out and stopped it, then looked at Ajieta.
She remained until the very end, becoming the last person truly in this dream universe.
"How is she doing now...?"
Ajieta didn't leave immediately, but instead looked at the goddess who was struggling to stay afloat.
She is in a very bad state right now. As the entire dream world is in turmoil, the aura around Shengxin is also growing stronger dramatically.
"Come."
Li Xingkong sent Ajieta out as well, and an even larger consciousness appeared before Li Xingkong.
It is a hope...
No wonder the Shengxin remained unharmed despite investing so many distracting thoughts into this dream world; it turns out that the three dragons that helped her maintain the world's operation also represent three admirable human qualities.
It is precisely because of the guidance of these three qualities that the world has not descended into chaos.
After Ajieta left, Li Xingkong no longer stopped the return of the three wills. Li Xingkong released his control, and the three wills surged into Shengxin's body like wild horses.
As their wills merged, the Shengxin glanced at Li Xingkong amidst its struggle, and then, in the next second, the entire dream world began to collapse and crumble.
Li Xingkong grabbed the Guapilong, holding it as they floated in the Mist outside the dream world, watching helplessly as the entire world collapsed.
After the world crumbled and melted into the Mist like bubbles, the Mist that had been around them also vanished completely. In the blink of an eye, Li Xingkong and Guapilong were already on the ship.
Fortunately Heavenly Palace Above the Clouds was large enough, and Li Xingkong had also expanded the space, otherwise the ship really wouldn't have been able to fit so many people.
Nevertheless, the first thing Li Xingkong was to raise his hand and expand several of the cabins several times over.
There were far too many lives on the continent; the ship appeared to be severely overloaded.
Moreover, simply bringing the people out doesn't solve the problem; they still need to eat.
Not everyone can survive without food and water; with so many people, the amount of food needed is astronomical.
Fortunately, after Li Xingkong advanced to the Golden Core Nine Revolutions, he became quite adept at using space. He used the Heavenly Palace Above the Clouds as a foundation to create a small plane.
Previously, when Li Xingkong constructed the Three Palaces, he was already able to open up a space the size of a continent. Now, the small plane he opened up is as big as two Earth Star. After opening it up, Li Xingkong hurriedly launched the spaceship and traveled outward along the correct path.
It also absorbed all the substances it encountered along the way, transforming them into various elements within the smaller plane: land, ocean, rivers, air...
Li Xingkong also made minor adjustments to the environment of the entire small plane, making it almost identical to the world in his dream. He even restored the towns in the entire world because of the Thick Earth City Fortification Technique.
After the spaceship had been traveling for nearly a month, and just as the minor plane was half completed, Shengxin awoke.
As the smaller plane was constructed, the people crammed onto the spaceship gradually moved inside. After all, while spaceships were indeed novel, flying in the void always made people feel uneasy, especially those whose worldviews were already fixed and who couldn't accept it for a while. These past few days, they had been living in constant fear and anxiety.
Only after setting foot on the land of the smaller plane did they feel at ease.
Ajieta hasn't gone anywhere these past few days. Although Li Xingkong rescued her and she should have come to thank him, in fact, ever since she escaped and came to the real world, she has been staying close to Shengxin.
The moment she emerged from the dream, she also realized her place within it: she was the only hope, a crucial pillar in maintaining the dream's stability.
The moment she left, the entire dream world was truly gone forever.
A sense of homelessness and displacement lingered in her heart, refusing to subside for a long time.
Only when she looked at the sleeping Shengxin could her heart find peace.
Yes, the world may be gone, but the gods remain.
And... now she is truly sitting with the real gods.
The moment Shengxin awoke, Ajieta noticed it. Seeing Shengxin's hands flailing about unconsciously, Ajieta immediately reached out and took her hand.
Seemingly grasping at a straw, Shengxin gripped Ajieta's hand tightly, unwilling to let go for even a moment.
After a short while, Shengxin suddenly sat up in the open life support pod.
Then, with a look of caution and surprise, she slowly opened her eyes.
After many years, she regained her senses and once again used her eyes to observe this cruel reality.
Fortunately, the first person she saw was not someone else, but Ajieta sitting next to her.
Am I still not awake?
Feeling the warmth of the person beside him and the softness of his hands, Shengxin felt a little uncertain.
Ajieta... actually came out of her dream.
"You're awake now, back in the real world. What are your thoughts, Miss Shengxin?"
After sensing that she had woken up, Li Xingkong came to the life support pod.
"It feels like a dream, everything has turned upside down... How much time has passed now? And... I never thought you could actually pull them out of the dream."
Shengxin sighed, as if waking from a dream. She should have been alone, filled with fear and unease.
But now, those surrounding him are the very people from his dreams, the people he has cared for through countless grand and enduring dreams, and that sense of alienation has faded considerably.
He still held onto Ajieta's hand tightly, even though he was certain that she had truly appeared in reality. Shengxin was still afraid that this was just a dream within a dream, and dared not let go.
