I Cheated While Cultivating - Chapter 70: Speculation Based on Previous
Knowledge
The existence of the true dream realm is quite peculiar.
Outside, the Palm Thunder cast by Zhou Heng would disappear after its roaring and flashing, naturally returning to the heavens and the earth.
But inside the true dream realm, it is not the case.
The thunderous light does not dissipate in the void but becomes an inherent scene in the dream realm, interweaving with each other and gradually converging into an ocean of thunderous light.
This spectacle is incredibly magnificent, something Zhou Heng could never achieve in the outside world.
Yet, within the true dream realm, with more and more Palm Thunder released by him, such a scene has formed.
At this moment, Zhou Heng is cultivating his Palm Thunder, eagerly anticipating the power it will have once he becomes Advanced in this Taoist Formula.
Suddenly, he furrowed his brows, feeling as if something had invaded this true dream realm.
Forced entry?
Although this is a true dream realm opened up by the Taoist Formulas cultivation card, in essence, it is still his own spirit world.
Once invaded…
Zhou Heng immediately sensed the presence of Xuan Yang.
However, before he could react, the ocean of thunder converging in the void suddenly surged and rushed in one direction!
This is a natural counterattack against an invasion of the dream realm.
Ordinary people’s dream realms would also do this, except that ordinary dream realms are very weak and their masters are not conscious, lacking the ability to resist outsiders.
Zhou Heng’s situation is completely different.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The deafening thunder roared endlessly in this true dream realm, a sea of golden light crashing madly in one direction.
“Ahh!”
An extremely piercing scream exploded in the void, causing the fog that shrouded the entire dream realm to surge violently.
No, this can’t even be called a sound.
It’s more like a strong impact that strikes directly at one’s Divine Soul, and for this reason, it has caused such a huge impact on this true dream realm.
“What is it, a ghost?” Zhou Heng looked puzzledly at the thunderous light rushing in the sky. He could clearly feel that something in the sea of thunder was being destroyed.
That must be the invader.
Zhou Heng had never heard of such a method before; he was seeing for the first
time something that could directly invade a person’s dream realm!
If it hadn’t been for his drawing the Taoist Formulas cultivation card this time, opening the true dream realm, staying conscious, and releasing many Palm Thunders that converged into a sea of thunder, the consequences could have been unfathomable.
But who is this invader?
A ghost?
Yu Shang?
Zhou Heng was puzzled in his heart.
“Congratulations! You have killed an equally matched enemy ‘Xuan Yang’s
Remnant Soul Will,’ Fortune Bag[Silver+lJ.”
The System’s prompt sounded.
But this made him even more puzzled.
Xuan Yang?
Who is that?
Could it be the name of the ghost that possessed Wang Tong?
Initially, Zhou Heng thought the ghost possessing Wang Tong might have been Yu Shang, who had escaped death, but now it seems that it is not the same entity.
Was it another ghost?
Or perhaps it has nothing to do with Wang Tong at all, and some other ghost just happened to want to invade the dream realm?
Uh, that doesn’t seem very likely.
Moreover, judging from the content of the System’s prompt, what the thunder destroyed just now was only a strand of “Xuan Yang’s” remnant soul will.
Its main body is still unknown.
At the same time.
Outside the window.
Wang Tong, who had been crouching in a hidden spot, suddenly turned pale, convulsed violently, and his whole body seemed to melt, dribbling down a large amount of viscous liquid.
The viscous liquid converged and leapt straight down from here. Upon contact with the ground, the surface acted as if it were a pool, allowing the cohesive blob of sticky liquid to sink into it.
Wang Tong regained his human form but appeared as if he had lost significant weight, his body now skin and bones and extremely gaunt. His expression was filled with confusion as he stared wide-eyed around him, seemingly unaware of why he was there.
He tried to rise and leave the place but felt his body so drained and feeble that
he had no strength at all.
Clang.
He collapsed outside the window of the room where Zhou Heng was, knocking off a number of tiles.
But before Wang Tong could attempt to get up again, a figure blocked out the light.
It was a handsome young man.
It was indeed Zhou Heng.
After realizing his dreams had been invaded, he had taken the initiative to withdraw from the actual dream to check on the outside world.
Little did he expect that just as he woke up, he would hear a noise outside the window.
He went to look.
It was actually Wang Tong!?
Was he truly the one who let the ghostly creature invade the dreams?
Was he caught just like that?
Zhou Heng felt somewhat bewildered for a moment.
While Zhou Heng was “bringing Wang Tong to justice,”
Below Yuyang County City,
The blob of viscous liquid that had sunk beneath reached an underground cavity deep down.
Luminescent rays of light shone from the depths of the cavity, yet within this light lurked shades of purple-black, as if tainted by something.
Upon entering the cavity, the viscous liquid began to squirm frantically, moving toward the edges and crevices that the light could not reach.
But its movement was not fast, and as part of the liquid was exposed to the light, it was instantly obliterated into nothingness, as if erased out of thin air. Nonetheless, one-third of the viscous liquid managed to move into the dark and cold crevices successfully.
Subsequently, the blob started to squirm in place, expanding and contracting as if it was trying to absorb something from the outside.
Moments later, traces of purple -black from the luminescent light separated and converged upon the liquid.
The viscous substance immediately absorbed this purple-black radiance, becoming still. It then abruptly began to twist and reshape, eventually, successfully transforming into a human figure.
This was a middle-aged man in his thirties, naked, with neglected and somewhat curly hair, and an ordinary, unremarkable appearance.
It was the very Xu Hai who had been swallowed by Wang Tong before!
This entity wearing “Xu Hai’s” likeness, Xuan Yang, wore an extremely somber expression, his gaze icy as he turned to look in the direction of the inn where Zhou Heng was staying.
“Damn it, the person whom Wang Tong wished to take revenge on in his desires turns out to be a mighty reincarnated soul!
“The overpowering Pure Yang and the thunder filled with suppression towards Yin spirits are clearly the light of thunder tribulation, the Tribulation Thunder! “His past life was a great figure who reached the level of Thunder Tribulation! “Even after reincarnation, the fog in the womb, his subconscious still retains the fear of Thunder Tribulation.
“No wonder he has a Pure Yang Body. This is probably not a natural occurrence but a plan laid out for his next life before his reincarnation from the tribulation.”
Xuan Yang speculated on Zhou Heng’s origins, drawing a rough conclusion from his previous knowledge and experiences.
This made him quite excited.
“If my guess is correct, this could truly be a great opportunity, a grand chance for me to break free!” Xuan Yang’s eyes lit up, and immediately, his pupils turned a blood red.
Meanwhile, beneath the night sky, clouds obscured the moonlight.
The people of Yuyang County City were all dreaming; many young women were also sleeping peacefully in their rooms.
Many of them had just received adjustments to their appearance, becoming more beautiful and confident than before.
They longed for their future husbands and dreamed of a wonderful future.
Even their dreams were filled with happiness.
But suddenly, those who were asleep sat up abruptly, eyes wide open, all uniformly looking in one direction.
