The mysterious man whose whole body was covered by smoke laughed contemptuously: "Do you think I will tell you honestly?"
"Forget it, now that the crack in the nightmare here has been exposed, I don't bother to work any more. Anyway, it's just a free move left by Xavius."
"Salayan Lord Shadow."
When the mysterious man turned around and left, he let out an unpleasant chuckle: "I believe we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future. Until then, let's continue to struggle hard."
As the mysterious man left, the gray fog covering the entire space also dissipated.
Standing on the surface of the space water that became clear and clear, Sarlayan's brows never relaxed.
"The successor of Nightmare King Xavius? Tsk! Those crows' mouths really got it right."
When Sarlayan planned to kill Xavius, some barrages persuaded him to hold back.
The Nightmare King is just a puppet, and Xavius is just the most useful of N'Zoth's many puppets.
Even if there is no Xavius, the Demon of Thousand Beards can still raise another one.
Even if he is not as handy as Xavius, he can still cause a lot of trouble to the defenders of Azeroth who don't know the origin of the new king.
Some commentators believed that instead of letting N'zoth be replaced by a stranger he didn't know, it would be better to leave Xavius behind so that he could continue to control the Nightmare King whose most information has been exposed in the future.
However, the young and energetic Sarlayan at the time ignored the barrage's advice and joined forces with Maiev to obliterate Xavius without hesitation.
As expected, that guy N'zoth would not give up so easily on the Nightmare King, an excellent tool that could threaten the Emerald Dream.
Xavius has indeed fallen and is unlikely to reappear, but N'zoth raised up a new Nightmare King as expected.
The worst part is that Sarlayan is completely unable to guess the opponent's identity, and naturally has no way to prepare a response.
"Forget it...let's put this matter aside for now."
Turning his head to look at Shenzhenzi who was still asleep, Sarlayan put his chin in his hand and talked to himself thoughtfully.
"I originally thought that Shenzhenzi's sleep was just a matter of self-sealing, but now it seems that things are not that simple."
"Anyway, let's get rid of the nightmare power that has plagued it for many years."
…
Sarlayan's subjective consciousness stayed in the nightmare for several hours, but from the perspective of Valeela and Stellagosa, who had been looking after his body, Sarlayan's time to settle down was only a short ten minutes.
"Huh~"
When Sarlayan got rid of the nightmare curse on Shenzhenzi, he didn't need to make much preparation. Without the support of the power of the nightmare, the gap space that trapped Sarlayan's consciousness automatically dissipated.
Sarlayan's expression was a little heavy when he regained consciousness. Valeera and Stellagosa immediately noticed the abnormality in the atmosphere, and stopped their continued harassing actions to surround him.
Valeela asked in confusion: "What's wrong? You're not really angry, are you?"
Sarlayan shook his head solemnly: "It has nothing to do with your actions. This matter is a long story."
…
"nightmare?"
After learning part of the real reason why Shenzhenzi was sleeping from Sarlayan's mouth, Shangxi, who had always been kind and kind-hearted, showed a rare serious expression.
"It sounds unsettling... Can you please tell me in detail, what exactly is this nightmare?"
At Sarlayan's signal, the eloquent Valeera told Shang Xi and other Wuchen Temple elders about the origin of the nightmare in a simple and easy-to-understand manner. As expected, the elders frowned.
"It turns out that there are such evil creatures in the dream world."
Shang Xi asked doubtfully: "I have a question. Shenzhenzi is not a demigod of the wilderness, nor is he the Loa god mentioned by the trolls. Logically speaking, he cannot enter the Emerald Dream. Why is he affected by the nightmare?"
Sarlayan wasn't sure why.
"I'm afraid I can only wait until Shenzhenzi wakes up to ask this question himself."
"However, according to my understanding, not only demigods and Loa can freely enter and leave the Emerald Dream."
"Any life that has a connection with the wilderness and nature is likely to receive an invitation from the Emerald Dream. Perhaps Shenzhenzi accidentally entered it by chance and was contaminated by the Nightmare King after entering a deep sleep."
The former Nightmare King Xavius was killed by Sarlayan himself. Perhaps his body was contaminated with some pheromones or soul breath left by Xavius, which caused him to accidentally break into the timing.
Falling into the cracks of nightmare left by Xavius.
Although the power of nightmare that has haunted Shenzhenzi for many years has been eliminated, it still has not awakened from its slumber due to Shenzhenzi's self-sealing.
Thanks to Shenzhenzi sealing his own consciousness, Xavius's backup plan failed to play any role, and the nightmare curse never eroded its will.
This should also be the reason why the new Nightmare King left so quickly. There was no need for him to fight with Sarlayan here.
Whether he can win or not is a matter of debate. Even if he wins by chance, he won't be able to kill Sarlayan's consciousness and won't get any benefits, so why bother.
Although Sarlayan repeatedly assured that there would be no problem with Shenzhenzi's consciousness, the elders of Wuchen Temple were still a little worried, and they took turns checking Shenzhenzi's condition in the next few days.
After passing the third stage of mind training trials, Shang Xi announced that Sarlayan no longer needed to accept his teachings in this area.
The master leads him in. Cultivation is an individual matter. How far Sarlayan can utilize the knowledge he has learned depends entirely on his own efforts in the future.
At first glance, Sarlayan had no immediate gains, but only he knew how important this trial was.
The impetuous temperament that had accompanied Sarlayan since his birth had been completely reversed. According to Shang Xi, his current state of mind can be described by an ancient Pandaren saying.
The best is like water.
In the next two days, Sarlayan did not spend any more energy on training, but actually spent two days on the Wandering Island with Valeera and Stellagosa.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The population of Wandering Island is not large, and they have traveled to various villages many times. The local people are familiar with the three of Sarlayan, and some brave ones
Pandaren children even dared to climb on top of Sharlayan and ask to be lifted up.
Shenzhenzi's body was not affected by what happened on Wizong Island, and he was still heading towards the North Sea step by step.
After arriving at the predetermined time and place, Stellagosa established contact with the Sapphire Dragon Shrine in Dragonblight.
Before entering the portal, Sharlayan patted Stellagosa and Valeela on the shoulders.
"As long as the situation in Crystalsong Forest does not fundamentally change, I will not stay in Northrend for too long. You can just wait here for my return."
Valeera curled her lips and said, "Okay, don't let the beautiful female dragon in Dragon Sleep Temple lead you away."
Sarlayan rolled his eyes angrily: "You jealous little boy is here again... Don't you still know what kind of person I am?"
Stellagosa couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle: "Don't be poor, let's go quickly. The distance is too far. I can't maintain the portal for a long time. Go back quickly."
Sarlayan nodded to Shang Xi, Cheng Bo and others who were watching, and then stepped into the portal without hesitation.
The extremely cold wind of Northrend replaced the breeze of the Wandering Island and blew on Sarlayan's face. When he arrived at the Sapphire Dragon Holy Land, Sarlayan spread his dragon wings and hovered in the air. Soon, he caused a stir and stopped here.
Attention blue dragons.
"Who are you……"
A female blue dragon with a softer outline came closer and looked at Sarlayan's appearance curiously.
"Ah~ I remembered."
The female blue dragon transformed into a blue-haired high elf with dragon horns, and bowed politely to Sharlayan.
"Hello, son of Elainastrasza, I am the blue dragon princess Talygosa, the daughter of Spellweaver Malygos and Dragon Queen Sindragosa."
'Princess Blue Dragon...'
Sharlayan had heard of Tarigosa's name and her related deeds from the barrage.
It is said that this blue dragon princess inherited the strange xp of the blue dragon clan and has no interest in the male blue dragons in the clan. In the future, she chose Jorad, a human paladin, as her partner.
Oh, by the way, Talygosa is still nominally the fiancée of Kalecgos.
...Although neither of them has the slightest interest in each other.
"Hiss~"
Sarlayan always felt that the way the blue dragon princess looked at him was a bit strange, like a hunter who had discovered his prey.
[Oops, could it be that Sharlayan was targeted by Talygosa? Jorad fainted in the toilet from crying. 】
【If you want to live a decent life, you must always have some green on your head and be calm.】
"Uh~"
Faced with Talygosa's strange eyes, Sharlayan asked bravely: "I have something important to ask of Her Majesty the Red Dragon Queen Alexstrasza. Your Royal Highness, please tell me, is Her Majesty the Queen still in Wyrmrest Temple?"
