Standing on the ruins of the shattered Founding Star, what you can see when you look around is the true face of the Dark Realm.
A cosmic space wrapped in chaos and darkness. Of course, the normal cosmic space is also dark. However, here, darkness is no longer a state, but an entity that can almost be touched and felt.
The only remaining celestial fragments after the founding star was torn apart floated in the center of this space. Its remaining powerful energy still maintains the structure of this debris group today, ten thousand years later, so the shattered continents did not
It did not escape into the deadly void, but the polluted atmosphere was bound by some kind of energy field around the wreckage group, making these already desolate ruins shrouded in an even more desolate layer of mist, just like a wrapper covering the corpses.
A shroud is like a shroud.
But these are not the only things in the dark realm.
After seeing the similarly torn planet in the distance, Hao Ren began to scan the entire sky to find more wreckage and ruins. Then he saw some hazy shadows in the darkness and chaos. Those shadows were
Abnormal black mist shrouded it, making it difficult to discern the true distance. Some of them looked like torn celestial bodies, and some looked like huge palaces or battleships. Moreover, Hao Ren also noticed that not all of them were real: some shadows appeared.
There are obvious signs of translucency. This abnormal phenomenon indicates that most of the things that were dragged into this dark realm along with the Founding Star have probably suffered a terrible fate.
Thinking of the Suluen Gate that was once dragged into the dark realm and then miraculously returned to the main material world, Hao Ren expressed his opinion: "This space should be much wider than we imagined.
But the range that can be observed is very small, and many things are probably shrouded in that black mist. In the dark realm, maintaining material form does not seem to be an easy task."
"But there are also lucky people who can return to the main material world and reshape their bodies," Vivian looked up at the sky and said lightly, "like the Gate of Suluen, right?"
"It seems that the red moon you summoned in the Lahirien world cannot shine here," Hao Ren glanced at Vivian, "No wonder Nolan failed to broadcast the beacon before... The most insurmountable thing in the world
The only obstacle is reality and dreams, and if this dream is cast by gods, it will be even more difficult to deal with."
At this moment, Nolan sent the report that Hao Ren had been waiting for: "Boss, a stable release point of divine power has been detected, which is near you."
"It seems that we have finally found the sleeping god," Hao Ren smiled slightly and looked at his friends, "I hope the goddess is not angry after getting up. After all, she was violently kicked out of the dream by us."
Lily bared her teeth at Hao Ren: "You two are the ones who woke me up! It has nothing to do with me."
As expected, after falling into and out of the dream, everyone's "landing point" was near where the goddess of creation was sleeping. This distance was so close that the goddess was actually in the same place as the group of people.
On this floating land beneath your feet.
Under Nolan's guidance, Hao Ren and his party climbed over a small hill and climbed a blackened mountain. Finally, they arrived at a place that was incompatible with the surrounding environment.
A circle of rocks rising like a crater created an open space. In the center of the open space, there was a touch of green, a lawn only a few meters long and wide. On this dead planet of gods, there was actually this last
A little bit of life lingered, which stunned Hao Ren.
In the center of the lawn, there stood a rock less than half a person's height. A woman in a white dress leaned quietly on the rock and fell asleep quietly in this position.
The woman in the white dress has a very similar appearance to Leah, and even her height and body are almost the same. The difference is that she has long silver-white hair that can be spread on the grass, and even when she is sleeping, her
There was also a vague sense of indescribable sanctity in his face.
Of course, this was of no use to Hao Ren. Ever since he knew that Raven 12345 would install a holy and solemn emoticon pack on himself in order to cope with inspections from superiors, any otherworldly appearance could no longer sway him...
A lawn several meters square, a cold stone, a torn apart dead planet, and boundless darkness and chaos, this is what once sealed the Lord of Madness, created the pastoral era of the Dream Plane, and made the entire universe vibrant and lush.
The place where the thriving goddess of creation finally sleeps.
Hao Ren had imagined countless times under what circumstances he would meet this god, but now he realized that all his previous assumptions were meaningless.
Vivian touched his arm lightly and raised her finger to point upward: "Is that... the temple you saw in the vision?"
Hao Ren looked in the direction of Vivian's finger and saw a piece of scattered building debris floating in the sky. Those ruins could still vaguely see the glorious and magnificent appearance of the past. Between the columns and reliefs, he
It seems that some familiar lines can still be recognized.
"Yes, those temples once floated on the Sea of Origin, but now the Sea of Origin has disappeared. The place we are standing on is actually the seabed of the past." Hao Ren nodded, and slowly led everyone towards the Goddess of Creation while bowing his head.
Sheng said, "The divine power bound the wreckage of this planet, allowing them to roughly maintain their former structure after the explosion, so the remaining parts of the temple are floating here, just like they were floating on the sea of the origin in the past.
"
They stood at the edge of the lawn. Lily looked hesitantly at the still sleeping goddess of creation: "Landlord... shouldn't she be awake already? Why does it look like she's still asleep?"
Hao Ren did not say a word, but waved his hand to signal others to stay where they were. He came to the sleeping goddess, bent down, and was level with her face: "Immersing in dreams can indeed be soothing, but I
Know that you did not choose that dream to escape reality. It has ended. Regardless of whether it was an accident or not, the end of the dream is a fact, and there is no point in continuing it forcefully."
The goddess who seemed to be in a sleeping state suddenly opened her eyes after hearing these words, as if she had never slept and was always alert. A pair of bright red eyes as clear as rubies watched quietly.
Hao Ren: "Of course I know that the dream will end, but I never thought it would end in this situation. I'm curious, how did you discover the truth? That dream... from some kind of
In a sense, it is almost a real world, and I can’t think of any loopholes in it that people can see at a glance, especially when you are deeply trapped in a dream.”
Lily not far away: "Wow! Wake up?! It turns out that the goddess was pretending to sleep just now!!"
Nangong Sanba quickly rolled this reckless guy aside...
Hao Ren ignored the voice coming from behind him, and he was not surprised by the goddess' sudden awakening. He was just curious that the other party's first question was not about the origins of his group: "I thought you would be interested in our identity."
more interested."
"Because it's not important," the silver-haired and blood-eyed goddess said quietly, "Although I am already very weak, I can still sense something from you... So at least I can be sure that you are not 'it'
Minions, then I am more curious about how you saw through that dream."
Hao Ren stood up straight and sighed: "You are right, that dream is indeed close to reality, and for the creatures in the dream, it is okay to say that it is a real world, but a dream is a dream, at least you
The dream that was created...it still has traces to follow."
"I have never had a dream since I entered the world called 'Lahrien'. I asked my friends and they were the same. This was the first point that caused me to doubt. Now that I think about it,
This should be because we cannot dream again in another person's dream.
"The next clue was the weird ecosystem of Lahirion, where all species in the entire Dream Plane live. They originated from your memory, right? But it was enough to arouse my suspicion. Of course, about the ecosystem
The reason for the anomaly is not very important, because I know that the Kingdom of God once had a species preservation bank. On this basis, the anomalies in the ecosystem can be explained, but the anomalies in history are difficult to justify...
"Those relics, various relics, including those of the God-Slayer, if I guess correctly, they also come from your memory, but they were added to the dream without your consciousness, right? So,
Only the scholars of Lahirion call those ruins the 'Anno ruins group' and consider them to be the biggest unsolved mystery. Even if those scholars spend their entire lives, they still cannot explain the origins of those Anno ruins.
, because in your dream, there is no corresponding explanation for those things.
"In the big tunnel, those fragments are not in line with the scale, and they are floating in the endless space... They remind me of the subconscious level. They are very similar in terms of expression and operation rules, but the abstract subconscious layer has been transformed into concrete objects.
It will be difficult for people to see through the alien space at the first time, but for me... I have been dealing with similar abstract things in the past two years, and I am too sensitive to them. Those are the deepest parts of dreams,
The most trivial and disordered corners of your memory, to a certain extent, they form the cornerstone of the dream world of Lahirian, but on the other hand, those crazy and confusing information that directly reach the truth of the world are very important to Lahirian.
It is also the most dangerous for the residents, because for a dream, facing the truth means the end of the dream, so the Great Tunnel has become the most dangerous place in Lahirien's world view, even dangerous to people all over the world.
Scholars had to make misinterpretations of it, and these misinterpretations were not corrected until an outside observer, that is, I saw the memory fragments in the tunnel with my own eyes.
"But these things are not conclusive. They can only make me make the conjecture that the world of Lahirion is either an illusion or a dream. What really makes me sure that it is a dream is actually this little guy.
…”
Hao Ren said and waved to Vivian.
Weiwei understood the idea with peace of mind and released the little weak chicken.
Along with a burst of black-red blood mist, the little weakling formed a figure in mid-air and flew unsteadily around Hao Ren. Then she saw the goddess of creation in front of her. Based on her instinctive judgment,
She thought this strange guy needed a moment.
So she did.
The Goddess of Creation casually scattered the powerless energy arrows and looked at the little weakling who was facing her with interest, with some curiosity in her tone: "What I am most curious about is actually her... Who is she...
…What? Why was she the one who made you confirm that Lahirien was a dream?"
"I'm afraid it will take a long time to explain her origin, but I can answer your second question," Hao Ren smiled slightly, "Although this little guy is very weak, he has a characteristic that no one else has, at least now.
The stage is like this: she is a chaotic creature, a chaotic creature at the conceptual level, so she will not enter any rational dream at all. In short, it is incompatible. Her mushy spiritual world cannot be controlled by a person at all.
Influenced by dreams full of order like Lahirion, so..."
Hao Ren looked at the little weakling who had fallen to the ground and began to pull weeds hard, with an expression that didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "She never entered Lahirian from the beginning to the end. She didn't dream, couldn't see, couldn't feel the dream, in her eyes
The world has always been this real dark realm, and in her eyes, we are all in a daze or in ridiculous sleepwalking from beginning to end... Now I am extremely glad that this guy has no brain, so I don't have to worry about being laughed at by her."
"So, after seeing her enter the tunnel easily and move freely in the tunnel, I understood everything." 8)
