Chapter 33: Strengthening as Desired
Translator: 549690339
The illusion created by Song Ying was different from others. The one she saved wasn’t a handsome man or a beautiful woman, but Qin Luan, who was at the Qi Cultivation Stage.
In the illusion, Qin Luan said that as soon as he entered the illusion, he was suppressed to the Qi Cultivation Stage and was currently being chased by bandits, relying on Song Ying for protection.
Song Ying was so delighted that she couldn’t close her mouth for a long time.
After Song Ying unified the world and shared the throne with Qin Luan, she found rare treasures to feed Qin Luan and finally let him recover to the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
Afterward, Song Ying gave up the world and retired to the mountains with Qin Luan.
The illusion determined that Song Ying had resisted the temptation of power and passed the level.
Qin Luan’s expression was dull, as if he didn’t understand everything Song Ying had done in the illusion.
Why, wasn’t the demoness supposed to disrupt my moral compass?
Why did she save me, why didn’t she eat the treasures of heaven and earth, why did she give up the throne, why…
Qin Luan’s body trembled slightly, he didn’t speak, but he didn’t have the mood to watch the water mirror anymore and walked to a distant place.
He wanted to be undisturbed for a while.
Afterward, people passed the Illusion one after another, but it took a long time. The one Qin Luan had faith in, Seven Kills Daoist, took a whole year to pass, others took even longer, and some even died of old age in the illusion before coming out. Obviously, they couldn’t pass.
The voice of Dream Pure came from the sky.
“At present, everyone has left the Illusion. The top hundred fastest people can enter the next level, and the others fail the challenge and leave the Illusion.”
Neglecting the objections of those ranked in the rear, Dream Pure directly expelled most of the people from the Illusion.
“Now announce the ranking of the first level’s test.”
Somehow, Jiang Li heard a tone of schadenfreude from Dream Pure’s voice. Probably it was an illusion created by the distortion of the voice.
“First place, Emperor Jiang Li.” “Second place, Qin Luan.” “Third place, Li Litong.”
“Fourth place, Song Ying.” “Fifth place, Li Fugui, remark, this is the Seven Kills Daoist.”
“Hundredth place… ”
When “Emperor Jiang Li” was announced, the crowd was like a barrel of gunpowder, exploding all at once.
The first place was Emperor Jiang Li?
The first reaction of the people was that the secret realm was wrong, but then they realized that the owner of the secret realm fell eight hundred years ago and didn’t know Emperor Jiang Li at all!
It could only be that the real Emperor Jian Li had arrived here!
Thinking of this, people were excited. Who would care about the test of the second level? Everyone was looking for Jiang Li’s figure.
Qin Luan and Li Litong’s reactions were the biggest. Qin Luan was standing right next to Jiang Li. Now he didn’t dare to take Jiang Li lightly, he became cautious.
Li Litong was struggling whether he should shamelessly kowtow to Jiang Li or pretend not to care to show off his noble character and let Jiang Li look up to him.
Suddenly, a wave of unignorable sleepiness surged into their hearts, even the excitement of Emperor Jiang Li being next to them could not resist this sudden sleepiness.
Jiang Li was alright. Only he felt that this sleepiness was related to the second level, and took out a quilt from the Storage Ring, comfortably entering the dream.
Everyone was amazed to discover that they were in the place where the mountains and seas met, with towering mountains on the left and endless blue waves on the right. Moreover, after entering the dream, they actually saw other people.
Could it be that the dream was interconnected?
Li Litong knew what was going on, but he didn’t condescend to explain it to a group of Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
“It’s the Dream Path.” The well-informed Seven Kills Daoist figured out what was happening.
“Everyone, don’t make a noise, listen to Li Fugui!” Someone tried to keep order, which made the Seven Kills Daoist’s veins bulge. Who the hell called that? I’ll chop him to death!
Oh, it’s Qin Luan. It’s fine then.
Seven Kills Daoist calmed his emotions, went on to say, “I’ve heard from my elders that there’s a rare cultivation method named Dream Path. You can cultivate in your sleep, and when you encounter an enemy, you can force your opponent to fall asleep, drag them into your dream, and confront each other in the dream. It’s just like the current situation.”
Jiang Li nodded. The Seven Kills Daoist wasn’t wrong, but he didn’t mention a crucial point.
I didn’t know whether he genuinely didn’t know it or was deliberately withholding information.
“Now announce the second level’s test.”
Dream Pure’s voice echoed again in the black space; this time, Jiang Li was sure that she was gloating.
“There are currently a hundred cultivators entering the dream. Here, you can imagine your strength at will!”
“Please start fighting, and the last person standing wins!”
Everyone was confused. The last sentence wasn’t hard to understand; the challenge was the fight, but what did it mean by “you can imagine your strength at will”?
Do you mean that if you think you’re strong, you can be strong?
The Seven Kills Daoist quietly snorted.
Someone vaguely understood Dream Pure’s meaning and tried to lift a distant mountain by pretending to hold it with his hand. And that mountain was indeed lifted by him!
“How is this possible!”
Seeing this, the others understood Dream Pure’s meaning.
This place is a dream, and you can do whatever you want.
Your strength is only limited by your imagination!
“Golden Core! I’ve broken through to the Golden Core!” Someone imagined himself as a Golden Core cultivator, overjoyed that he had actually broken through the Foundation Establishment stage and become a Golden Core cultivator, even a first-class Golden Core cultivator with a fully formed Core!
“Golden Core, what’s that? Watch me break through to the Nascent Soul!” Someone sneered at the Golden Core and imagined himself as a Nascent Soul master. He jumped past the Golden Core and directly became a Nascent Soul cultivator!
“All you know is breakthroughs. Look at my true Qilin form!” That person transformed into a Qilin of thousands of miles, rushed into the ocean like a sword, and turned into a huge Qilin causing huge waves in the sea!
“What good does a mythical beast have? Come, Dharma Manifestation in the
World!” “Come on, fight!”
“Come on, fight!”
The Qilin emerged from the ocean, turned back into the Roc and stirred up a massive storm, clashing with the giant person who had manifested heaven and earth-sized magic.
At this moment, both the Golden Core and Nascent Soul were nothing but dust, they didn’t marvel at them. The battle between the Roc and the Dharma Manifestation in the World was comparable to a desperate fight between great cultivators at the Body Integration Realm!
With the Roc and Dharma Manifestation in the World as examples, everyone finally understood Dream Pure’s meaning.
In an instant, the scene was in chaos, with long-lost tribes pulling the golden crow for a tug of war.
Someone was lifting a mountain to fill the ocean, someone turned into a real dragon howling, someone roared and shattered the nine heavens, someone was like a walking Heavenly Tribulation, turning everything he passed into scorched earth.
Everyone was having so much fun, so they all forgot about Jiang Li.
The ability to become as strong as we wanted, to transform into anything, was every cultivator’s dream!
“I am a true dragon, the lord ot the tour seas, who is stronger than me!” The person who transformed into a real dragon was extremely arrogant. He was the lord of the four seas, a truly powerful transcendence tribulation expert.
He was a body cultivator. The best medicine bath he had used was also diluted with a lot of Jiao blood. Now, by taking advantage of the dream, he directly transformed himself into a real dragon, which made him very proud!
“True Dragon, you are but a speck of tribulation smoke in the hand of the controller of my Heavenly Tribulation!” The person in control of the Thunder Tribulation said with scorn, and a Thunder Tribulation struck down, causing damage to the real dragon.
“That’s all?” The person who had transformed into a real dragon also responded with a scornful smile, and the wounds healed quickly. The real dragon was known for its powerful body, so its healing speed was naturally extremely fast.
The person controlling the Thunder Tribulation was furious: “You little mudfish dares to challenge my Divine Might!”
The person who turned into a real dragon was also angry when he heard this:
“If Divine Might is of this level, then I will rebel against this Heaven!”
These two went all out, the dragon howl and the thunder roar mixed together, extremely frightening..
