In the outer layer of the Dream Realm, one of the spaces was enveloped by howling winds, with countless mountains and rocks standing tall.
One large rock, subjected to the wind’s erosion for a long stretch of time, suddenly—
The large rock moved, naturally transforming into a figure with black scales and golden horns, which was none other than one of Luo Feng’s three main avatars that occupied the outer layer of the Dream Realm. While the Perfect Divine Body completely immersed itself in comprehending the Great Dao of Destruction Origin, Luo Feng’s other avatars were almost in a state of slumber.
“The cultivation with the Five-Colored Treasure Medicine is over; it’s time to properly cultivate the Spiritual Will,” Luo Feng’s one avatar quietly left and swiftly proceeded on its journey.
While dividing other avatars for reconnaissance, Luo Feng quickly arrived at the deep layers of the Dream Realm.
“The deep layers of the Dream Realm.”
Luo Feng could see a space ahead, even more dim and with faint thunder flashing.
Whoosh, Luo Feng carefully flew into it.
“Indeed, it’s the deep layers of the Dream Realm,” Luo Feng felt a terrifying pressure acting upon his spirit, with layers upon layers of heart pressure enveloping him, seemingly endless, exhausting Luo Feng considerably.
“The ancient beings from the Land of Origin form teams, yet they seldom venture into the deep layers of the Dream Realm,” Luo Feng was well aware of this.
Only wills at the God King Ultimate Realm could maintain lucidity here, and most of the ancient beings also cultivated the Primordial Bloodline, needing to divert their attention to suppress the residual will within their bloodlines. So, to form a team where every member could traverse the deep layers of the Dream Realm? That was exceedingly difficult!
“For an individual to sneak into the deep layers of the Dream Realm, dealing with more powerful Dream Realm Creatures becomes very difficult,” one of Luo Feng’s avatars encountered three flame Exotic Beasts, each with a black body. Merely judging by their aura, each could rival the Stone Monster Leader.
One of the flame Exotic Beasts noticed Luo Feng and immediately whooshed into a clump of black flames, enveloping him.
“Escape,” Luo Feng’s one avatar immediately divided again into ten smaller ones, scattering and fleeing.
“Pfft!”
Soon, one of the avatars was trapped by the black flames, burned for a moment, and eventually was extinguished.
“The deep layers of the Dream Realm, the influence on the Spiritual Will is even greater, and the Dream Realm Creatures are even more terrifying. But the treasures here are even more precious! Only… there are very few who have the capability to come here and harvest these treasures,” Luo Feng thought to himself.
Even Emperors and Monarchs, for the most part, needed to divert their attention to suppress the will of the bloodline, and not many were qualified to come here.
“Too dangerous.”
Luo Feng divided many avatars and briefly explored a portion of this deep Dream Realm space, “With my current strength, I can’t even grab a single treasure.”
In the middle layers of the Dream Realm, Luo Feng could still harvest treasures from a limited number of regions based on his abilities.
The deep layers of the Dream Realm? A few random creatures could rival the teams from the Reincarnation Tower. Even some terrifying Dream Realm species, any true body of an Emperor or Monarch daring to enter might not be able to escape.
“These Dream Realm Creatures all contain a trace of will but possess no soul,” Luo Feng was also curious.
Without souls, most Dream Realm Creatures remained within their territories. Only a few would leave their domain due to special reasons… yet they could never leave this Dream Realm Space!
Over time, the Dream Realm Space would change, Dream Realm Creatures would perish, and new terrifying Dream Realm Creatures would emerge.
“Dream Realm, Dream Realm, is it truly just a dream?” Luo Feng pondered.
Some powerhouses in the Land of Origin believed that the Dream Realm… was merely a dream! A dream created by Yuan.
Yet others objected, after all, they could enter with their True Body and the wonders of heaven and earth they harvested could be used normally in the outside world! It was hard to explain with ‘just a dream.’
This also made many powerhouses further revere ‘Yuan.’
“Let’s do it here,” after exploring the surrounding area, Luo Feng chose a secluded spot on the mountainside of a desolate mountain, sat down cross-legged, and naturally turned into an inert stone.
Luo Feng then started to cultivate the ‘Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique.’
In the deep layer of the Dream Realm, since Luo Feng was not seizing any treasures and not provoking any Dream Realm Creatures, merely cultivating here was quite safe.
“Rumble~~~” The pressure of the Dream Realm on the Spiritual Will was relentless and endless, and under this terrifying pressure, Luo Feng continued to sustain the Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique, causing an immediate surge in the pressure on his Spiritual Will.
Hiss!
Taking the ‘Five-Colored Treasure Medicine,’ and the enhancement in comprehending the Great Dao of Destruction Origin, made the ‘Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique’ also evolve, increasing its might substantially.
“Hmph!” In an instant, Luo Feng felt extreme pain, extreme torment.
“Increased potency of the Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique, harsher conditions in the deep layers of the Dream Realm… dual refinement, truly uncomfortable,” Luo Feng found every moment excruciating as his Spiritual Will seemed to be crushed to pieces and then congealed again.
“The Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique… indeed painful!”
Like the Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique, which refines the heart with emotions, and is a relatively pleasant experience during cultivation. But the Seven Emotions of Heart Refining Technique cannot be sustained for long.
The Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique shows ordinary results in a short time but has the advantage of being sustainable over the long haul.
“To have obtained the ‘Lie Yuan Technique,’ and to learn the ‘Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique’ within it, I’m already fortunate,” Luo Feng endured silently, and in the process of tempering, gradually discovered the many unstable thoughts of his spirit, relentlessly eroded time and again.
In this ongoing process of Destruction Refinement, the erosion by the deep spatial layers of the Dream Realm also continued ceaselessly, and unbeknownst to him, the influence of the Dream Realm’s erosion grew deeper.
Hum!
About half an era into Luo Feng’s cultivation in the deep layer of the Dream Realm, his increasingly tired spirit was completely eroded by the Dream Realm.
In an instant, Luo Feng fell into a deep sleep.
At that moment, all his avatars in the outside world, including those in Infinite Space, also fell into slumber.
“Whoo, whoo, whoo~~~”
The piece of inert stone in the deep Dream Realm space became a complete stone.
…
Luo Feng forgot who he was, as if he had turned into a massive creature flying through the air.
“What a mighty Primordial Life,” accompanied by hearty laughter, a towering hand had already grabbed him. Luo Feng felt a fear emanating from the depths of his soul. He had no desire to resist; there was only fear and thoughts of escape.
“I must escape.”
“Flee for my life.”
“Ancestor, save me.”
A jumble of disordered thoughts.
It seemed like Luo Feng had escaped that giant hand, but soon he was enveloped by a Formation, and he escaped again! Another figure was in pursuit…
This dream was twisted, as if he was constantly running, fleeing in terror.
While “asleep,” Luo Feng lost control of himself and naturally stopped the Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique! His Spiritual Will had long reached the bottleneck limit of the Godly King Tier.
Just under the mere deep layers of the Dream Domain, Luo Feng gradually began to awaken from the terrified flight in his dream.
“Am I, am I dreaming?” Luo Feng was astonished.
Dreaming was such a distant concept for him.
With his spiritual state, he should have perfectly mastered control over himself and not dream at all.
“I’m Luo Feng. I’m cultivating in the deep layers of the Dream Domain.” Once Luo Feng became aware of his existence within the dream, he felt the dream start to shake and become unstable.
“This dream is interesting, stabilize it,” Luo Feng tried to harmonize more with the dream.
Because at this moment, the massive creature he had become…
Was too vast, even more magnificent than the ‘complete Life Origin Great Dao’ he had observed before, and it even carried a hint of the ‘Supreme Rules.’
And the figures that seemed to chase after him from behind appeared even more terrifying than the entire Source World.
“What is this?”
Luo Feng wanted to maintain the dream, but he eventually woke up. The longer he was awake, the more fragmented the dream became.
Bang!
Finally, the dream completely dissipated.
In that space deep within the Dream Domain, on a barren mountain’s mid-slope, a stubborn rock opened its eyes.
“I fell into a slumber, that dream just now…” But Luo Feng found his memory of the dream to be very vague, only remembering that he had turned into a massive creature, only remembering that what chased him was terrifying.
The appearance of the pursuer, Luo Feng could no longer recall. The methods they used, he also could not remember.
“How could I have such a dream?” Luo Feng was somewhat puzzled.
When other strong beings enter the Dream Domain, if they fall into slumber, it’s very difficult for them to awaken.
Either they rely on other strong beings to bring their True Body out, or they have a lucky breakthrough in their spirit in the dream, but the odds of that are negligible!
Luo Feng had consciously entered into spiritual Cultivation here, which is what led to his slumber. But once asleep, he naturally stopped the Great Destruction Heart Refining Technique! Given the real strength of his Spiritual Will, it was easy for him to regain consciousness.
“Cultivating for half an era, indeed, I’m somewhat fatigued. Time to rest for a while.” Luo Feng immediately left the deep layers of the Dream Domain silently and returned to the outer layers.
…
Within the Primordial Cosmos, that Mysterious Land.
Luo Feng’s Divine Power Incarnation was observing the complete Life Origin Great Dao before him.
“I didn’t expect that in just three eras, with the help of the Five-Colored Treasure Medicine… the accumulation of the Great Dao of Destruction Origin would be comparable to the Great Dao of Life Origin,” Luo Feng thought. “But once I use up the treasure medicine, the speed of Cultivation will become very slow again.”
The path of Life has the advantage of facing the Great Dao directly, always ensuring a higher efficiency in Cultivation.
“There are only two doses of the Five-Colored Treasure Medicine, and the ‘Boundary Beast Blood Talisman’ is even more precious… Even with the status of my master, I can only exchange for one,” Luo Feng mused inwardly. “The use of the Boundary Beast Blood Talisman must be even more prudent.”
Master Emperor Chu cultivated the Great Dao of Destruction Origin, which is why he could exchange for one. It is possible that other Emperors couldn’t even make the exchange. As for Ke Qing God King? They didn’t have the qualifications to see it!
“Whether it’s the Five-Colored Treasure Medicine or the Boundary Beast Blood Talisman… they must be used at critical moments.”
Understanding the Great Dao, many of the superficial aspects are relatively easy to understand.
Without using treasures, one could comprehend them over time.
The real key things, the extremely difficult ones, might make one stuck for a long time. At such times, using a treasure is highly efficient.
“I’ll take the Five-Colored Treasure Medicine again in thirty eras,” Luo Feng decided. The Five-Colored Treasure Medicine is slightly less precious, after all, even a Ke Qing God King can exchange for it. With some extra effort, he should still be able to obtain a few more doses.
But the Boundary Beast Blood Talisman… Luo Feng wanted to save it for use during the Second Realm of Godly King stage to better charge towards the Ultimate Realm.
“Life and Destruction, indeed, are quite distinct.”
Luo Feng faced the Great Dao of Life and began to immerse himself in cultivation.
Cultivation, after all, also requires a change of mind! If one hits a bottleneck in understanding Destruction, try understanding Life then attempt ‘Life and Destruction Fusion’… and then go back to comprehending Destruction, the bottleneck might just loosen.
Cultivation is about daily accumulation!
In this way of cultivation, Luo Feng soon received a second invitation to action from Emperor Gui Xu.
