Chapter 2842

Then, the Heavenly Demon disguised as "He Lingchuan" and "Pao Chi-hai" appeared, urging him to enter the Sea Emperor's Palace to find a way out.

The timing was just perfect, fitting the style of the Goddess of Illusory Music.

And the true Nine Abyss also entered the Dream Realm to find it; the Goddess of Illusory Music discovered this and simply blinded its eyes, letting it beat its own reinforcements, hoping to use its hand to eliminate the Nine Abyss.

All of this is the Heavenly Demon's poisonous scheme, link by link! Hateful, truly hateful!

Seeing things had come to this, the Sea Emperor Xuandu urgently said to the Goddess of Illusory Music: "Endu Heng's method won't work. You separate the Earth Mother and the two of them, and we will kill them separately!"

Let the Earth Mother and the Nine Abyss kill each other—this trick was devised by Endu Heng. The Nine Abyss can mostly find the Earth Mother in the dream realm, and since the Earth Mother's destructive power in dreams and its high incompatibility make it hard for Illusory Music to completely hide it, there's no need to specially conceal the Earth Mother; better to just let them clash with a small scheme.

Making the Earth Mother see allies as enemies and enemies as teammates—isn't this just the Goddess of Illusory Music's specialty?

This tactic at least has one advantage: even if the Nine Abyss finds the Earth Mother, it cannot forcibly take it away, and the Earth Mother will still cooperate with the Heavenly Demon in attacking them—

The Earth Mother's power is no joke.

Endu Heng's strategy sounds reasonable at first, but Xuandu's execution is always flawed: the Earth Mother is not as foolish as he expected, and having lived with the Cangyan people day and night, they already have tacit understanding.

Now the Earth Mother has broken through Illusory Music's blindfold, sees everyone clearly, and of course immediately returns to He Lingchuan's side, giving Xuandu one more strong enemy.

No choice, we can only return to conventional tactics.

Fortunately, the Heavenly Demon still holds the home-field advantage here, for this is still the dream realm woven by the Goddess of Illusory Music.

At the same time, He Lingchuan also spoke quickly to the Earth Mother:

"Come with me, this place is not suitable for lingering!"

Countdown of the Great Square Vessel, seven breaths!

The Earth Mother had long been enough of staying in the Goddess of Illusory Music's dream realm, its mind set only on escaping, and for this it could even suppress its killing intent, temporarily not settling scores with the Goddess of Illusory Music:

"Good!"

It must admit, whether in the past battle with Shangguan Biao in the Secret Realm, or now in the dream realm contest with the Goddess of Illusory Music, these are not its forte.

These battles are too complex, too deceptive, and too multi-dimensional, fundamentally unsuitable for it; better to leave the mental strain to the Nine Abyss. Whatever it says to do, it will do.

As the words fell, the surrounding water-separating barrier suddenly shattered, seawater surged back in, and slammed into He Lingchuan and the others.

This is Illusory Music's dream realm; He can freely control the barrier's switches. Earlier, He set up the barrier merely to facilitate everyone's combat, after all, most Heavenly Demons are not used to fighting in water. Now Xuandu gives one order, and He unleashes a flood to wash away the Earth Mother, Himself needing not to advance and risk danger.

Whether Heavenly Demon or Pao Chi-hai, seeing the surging seawater rush forward, they cannot help but curse, only He Lingchuan pays no heed, again taking out that golden lotus of wind and dew, and says to the Earth Mother and Pao Chi-hai:

"Enter!"

The lotus responds by opening, revealing a pale yellow lotus pedestal.

Enter……go?

The Earth Mother hesitates, yet sees Pao Chi-hai transform into a streak of light, rushing into the lotus pedestal.

Indeed, this is the dream world. Pao Chi-hai once told it that powerful souls here can consciously control their own form transformations.

The Earth Mother follows suit, with a thought, likewise transforms into a streak of flowing light, rushing toward the golden lotus of wind and dew.

The prey wants to flee—how could the Sea Emperor tolerate it? He raises his trident, about to strike the light-form Earth Mother away.

But at this moment, a nightmare lunges forward, bearing two faces of deep hatred and grudge, fearlessly shoving aside the trident.

The Sea Emperor's trident is not so easily pushed; upon contact, this double-headed nightmare, like ice meeting a hot iron, hisses and turns into gray vapor.

Yet the trident was ultimately deflected, failing to strike the Earth Mother directly.

This double-faced nightmare is one of the "Hundred Faces" transformed by the Hundred-Faced Demon Lord.

With a swoosh, the Earth Mother also rushes into the lotus pedestal of the golden lotus of wind and dew, just like Pao Chi-hai, transforming into a lotus seed, tightly embedded in the lotus pedestal.

He Lingchuan dodges a strike from the Heavenly Demon, casually stuffs the golden lotus of wind and dew into his mouth. This action startles the Sea Emperor Xuandu and the other Heavenly Demons.

His side originally had few helpers, yet he even took back the Earth Mother and the nightmare—does he intend to single-handedly take on all immortals and demons here?

Because the Blood Demon also returned to He Lingchuan's back, turning back into a cloak. And the main body of the Hundred-Faced Demon Lord also slipped back, transforming into a long spear, which He Lingchuan grasps in his hand.

In a blink, all his helpers return to him, only he himself stands tall before the strong enemy.

At this moment, the flood has already surged forward, raging and turbulent.

The Sea Emperor Xuandu's trident points far away, and the waves instantly form two water dragons, fiercely lunging toward He Lingchuan.

In water, Xuandu's combat level increases at least severalfold.

Countdown of the Divine Bone Necklace, two breaths remaining.

He Lingchuan presses the Divine Bone Necklace with one hand, raises the other, and the head of the Floating Life Blade once again flashes purple light, chopping toward the water dragons.

Wave-Slash.

He once practiced this move, determined to face torrents and great tides; back then he could already cleave the oncoming spray. Now, wielding the power of the Nine Abyss Great Emperor, he performs this move again: not only are the two water dragons cleaved in mid-flow, but the rushing torrent is also split in half by invisible gangqi, as if there were a barrier where he stands, water only able to flow past his sides.

Suddenly, the Goddess of Illusory Music exclaims: "Wrong! He has cleaved the dream realm!"

Looking closer at the slash mark of the Floating Life Blade, one finds that the blade has torn open a rift in midair, which instantly expands into a laughing mouth, into which the rushing water pours, vanishing without trace.

He Lingchuan's this blade seems to have split the canvas, revealing the purple starry river background beneath.

That is……

Everyone now understands: the other side of this rift is the Purple Dream Star River of the Goddess of Illusory Music.

That is to say, He Lingchuan's this slash has indeed cleaved the dream realm barrier.

The Earth Mother, after exhausting the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, barely shattered the dream realm barrier; He Lingchuan achieved the same effect with just one blade. Needless to say, not only the Goddess of Illusory Music, but even the Sea Emperor, seeing this, is shocked beyond measure.

Three years ago, he clashed with the Nine Abyss in the Liuli Sea; back then, the Nine Abyss was far from being as formidable as it is now.

Know that, having reached their current level of cultivation, it is already the peak of a hundred-foot pole where no further inch can be gained. In merely three years, how has this fellow achieved such a meteoric rise in cultivation?

The Heavenly Demons are unaware, this is the effect of the Great Square Vessel two-piece set.

The Sea Emperor lets out a great shout, his body and spear merge into one and shoot forward; amidst the surrounding waves, countless water arrows also shoot out, blocking He Lingchuan's further approach to the dream realm rift.

To He Lingchuan, it feels like a person fallen in water having to face a high-speed charging swordfish.

The last breath.

The two sides clash head-on, the suddenly exploding water waves hurl all the charging Heavenly Demons several zhang away.
