Chapter 1732: First Lifetime! Night Ling of the Student Era!

No!

But the Frost Crown Sovereign didn't even consider it, directly refusing:

"Night Ling has already fallen into a deep sleep; how could I let you take this risk again?"

She looked at Xu Jingming, her icy beautiful face full of solemnity:

"Jingming, you are my disciple, and Night Ling is also.

I have already lost one disciple; I cannot lose a second!

If there is truly no other way, then first annihilate Night Ling's soul.

Then reverse time and space to resurrect her."

The cost of resurrection is simply too great.

She will not choose this unless it is the last resort.

However, the Xiyue Venerable beside her pondered briefly, then spoke:

"I think we can give it a try."

She stepped forward slowly, her moon-white robe swaying gently with her steps.

That mature, alluring charm naturally emanated from her every gesture.

She then looked at Xu Jingming and said:

"I have a compromise.

I will give you one minute; if after one minute you have not awakened Night Ling, I will forcibly sever the connection.

Moreover, I can share the visual experience of your time in the dream.

If any danger occurs, I can also interrupt it in time.

Although your soul will suffer damage from this, it is still far better than eternal slumber."

"Only one minute?"

Xu Jingming was somewhat surprised.

This time is far too short, isn't it?

"The flow of time differs between dream and reality.

One minute of real time is enough for you to experience dozens of lifetimes in the dream."

Xiyue Venerable smiled and explained, "If after dozens of lifetimes you still cannot awaken her, then it truly is impossible."

"I see." Xu Jingming suddenly understood.

Indeed, dozens of lifetimes of reincarnation are enough to try all kinds of methods.

Xiyue Venerable then turned to the Frost Crown Sovereign and said:

"How about this arrangement?

Xu Jingming will not face the risk of eternal slumber; at most, only his divine sense will be damaged.

And if he truly can awaken Night Ling in the dream, that would be the perfect outcome."

After a moment's thought, the Frost Crown Sovereign slowly nodded:

"Since Xiyue my lord has said so, let's give it a try."

Immediately afterward, she looked at Xu Jingming and instructed:

"Jingming, act within your limits; if it cannot be done, do not force yourself."

"Disciple understands."

Xu Jingming nodded, then began adjusting his own state.

Several minutes passed,

After adjusting his divine sense to peak condition, he then said:

"Xiyue my lord, Master, I am ready."

"Good."

Xiyue Venerable gave a slight nod, then added:

"After you enter Night Ling's dream, first find Night Ling.

That is her dream, as the master of the dream.

Her appearance and form will not change greatly; you should be able to find her easily.

Once found, try to cause her emotions to fluctuate violently.

Joy, anger, sorrow, fear......

Any emotion that can impact the soul will do.

Only intense emotional fluctuations can make her recall her true memories.

Thereby escaping the dream of the Bewildering Dream Pearl."

"Understood." Xu Jingming said in a deep voice.

He took a deep breath, then slowly closed his eyes.

The next moment, Xiyue Venerable extended her jade hand, fingertips glowing with brilliant moon-white light.

That light was not dazzling, but soft like water, slowly enveloping Xu Jingming's forehead.

Xu Jingming only felt a warm and vast power surge into his sea of consciousness.

Guiding his divine sense, it probed toward a certain deep passage.

Hum!

A slight dizziness came over him.

After opening his eyes again, Xu Jingming found himself standing beside a bustling street filled with people coming and going.

The surroundings were extremely modern buildings, with vehicles flowing endlessly on the road and pedestrians hurrying past.

The air carried a faint smell of car exhaust, and music from a distant shopping mall could be heard.

"Is this Senior Sister's dream realm?" Xu Jingming curiously scanned his surroundings.

Across the street was the gate of a school.

The doorplate bore the words "Yacheng Middle School" written in the universal cosmic language.

"Mm! Finally out of school!"

"Quick quick quick! I'm rushing home!"

It was exactly dismissal time, and students streamed out in single file.

Wearing blue-and-white uniforms, they chatted and laughed.

"Student days?" Xu Jingming raised his eyebrows slightly.

He lowered his head to look at himself.

He wore an ordinary black T-shirt and jeans.

His physique and appearance were exactly the same as in reality.

Only, the overwhelming divine power of the Immortal Stage was gone from within him.

"This environment and technological level are actually quite similar to Blue Star.

It seems this is the planet where Senior Sister was born."

Xu Jingming quickly realized this.

At that moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his heart:

"Huh huh? How did I also follow you in?"

It was Viya!

That clear voice, tinged with a hint of cute loli tone, was now full of surprise.

Xu Jingming's heart stirred.

He inwardly inspected with his divine sense, but found no trace of Viya in his sea of consciousness.

He swept his gaze and then spotted a tiny black shadow by the roadside.

It was a small cat, entirely black, only palm-sized.

Its fur was glossy, and a pair of large purple eyes stared at him fearfully.

"Meow! Meow meow meow! (How did I turn into a cat?!)"

The little black cat sprang up with fur standing on end, letting out an unhappy cry.

"You also followed me in."

Xu Jingming was also somewhat surprised.

He immediately crouched down, reached out, and picked up the little black cat.

It felt soft in his hands, fluffy.

"Probably due to the Soul-Eroding Seal."

The Soul-Eroding Seal is a soul contract; Xu Jingming can dominate Viya in every way.

He just didn't expect that even entering a dream with divine sense would trigger this contract.

"Meow wu! (On what grounds are you human and I a cat!)"

Viya the kitten struggled in his hands.

Her four tiny paws flailed wildly, but she couldn't break free at all.

Xu Jingming lifted her by the scruff of her neck, held her before his eyes, and a hint of a smile flashed in his black pupils:

"Perhaps your soul essence is close to that of a cat?"

"Meow!! (You're the one who's cat-like! Your whole family is cat-like!)"

Viya the kitten shouted angrily.

"What? You're not convinced?"

Xu Jingming raised his sword-like eyebrows.

His large hand rubbed and kneaded at will.

Besides, the feel was quite nice.

"This sensation is so real, I completely don't feel like I'm in a dream.

Even more real than in the virtual universe."

Feeling this sensation, Xu Jingming couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Let me test my current strength."

He casually tossed the disobedient Viya the black kitten onto his shoulder.

Xu Jingming casually jumped and threw a punch to test.

His physical quality far surpassed that of an ordinary person.

Roughly equivalent to a Blue Star fifth-tier ability user.

Moreover, he still retained some divine sense, so he wasn't too weak.

"Not bad, at least some strength remains."

Xu Jingming nodded inwardly in his heart.

At that moment, among the crowd exiting the high school gate, a figure caught his attention.

It was a tall and slender girl.

Wearing a full set of blue-and-white uniform, her figure had already begun to show a graceful curve.

She had shoulder-length black hair, her features exquisite and cold.

A trace of composure unfitting her age showed between her brows and eyes.

Although her appearance was quite a bit more youthful and unripe, Xu Jingming still recognized her at a glance.

It was Ye Li!

"Found her."

Xu Jingming's eyes brightened; he stroked the little cat Vira on his shoulder:

"Stop fooling around, business is more important."

"Meow...... (Understood.)"

The little cat Vira huffed unwillingly, but quieted down all the same.
