I would never have been able to forgive myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai smiled. \"Congratulations on overcoming your Heart Demon, Landlord Long. From now on, the sky’s the limit, with no Heart Demon to stand in your way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yan nodded. \"Yes, the sky’s the limit now. I can finally focus on maintaining peace in Fenglin State.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding scenery finally vanished completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything before Shen Bai’s eyes first blurred, then slowly came into focus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai opened his eyes and found himself back in the empty clearing from before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The look of struggle and turmoil on the faces of the townspeople had vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai had eliminated the Nightmare, and the crisis was resolved in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mu and the Liu State Governor were looking on anxiously, unsure of what to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though both were powerful combatants, something like a Dream Realm was far too esoteric. Elder Mu had even taken out the Dream-Entering Incense, preparing to try and enter Shen Bai’s Dream Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But before he could even try, he saw Shen Bai awaken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mu rushed forward, grabbed Shen Bai’s shoulders, and asked urgently, \"Shen Bai, are you all right? Are you hurt? Let me see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Elder Mu’s concern, Shen Bai felt a warmth spread through his heart. He shook his head and said, \"I’m fine, Elder Mu. I ran into Landlord Long, but I’ve already resolved the crisis.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’In this world, Elder Mu was one of the few people who genuinely cared about him, allowing him to feel a trace of warmth in this Otherworld.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, he recounted everything that had happened in thorough detail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mu and the Liu State Governor listened, stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Shen Bai finished, they exchanged a look, and both could see the shock in the other’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mu blurted out, \"You fought Landlord Long to a standstill? And you even forced her to use a Forbidden Technique from her embodiment arts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai nodded. \"That’s right. It’s a shame, though. If I could have defeated Landlord Long while she was using her Forbidden Technique, now *that* would have been a real thrill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corner of Elder Mu’s mouth twitched. He was at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yan was the Landlord of the Registration Office. Although her actual combat strength was far inferior to his, she was still two Grand Realms above Shen Bai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Shen Bai had nearly worn her down to defeat despite that two-Grand-Realm gap. If word of this got out, no one would believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But given what they had seen, they truly believed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Shen Bai had given them one shock after another from the very beginning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Liu State Governor stroked his chin. After a moment of thought, he looked over at the slowly awakening Liu Wufeng and asked, \"Elder Mu, is Lord Liu truly unwilling to part with such a treasure? If Shen Bai were to join the Fenglin State Government Office, I could arrange the fastest possible promotion track for him. His achievements wouldn’t be limited to just this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was now determined to recruit this talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, the Liu State Governor had thought of Shen Bai as a prodigy of the younger generation, someone worth befriending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he achieved great things in the future, perhaps that connection would pay dividends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, it seemed it was about more than just future achievements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Liu State Governor had a feeling that Shen Bai would one day stand at the very pinnacle of this world, so he was very eager to build a positive relationship with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was reality, not some storybook where every master would inevitably become the protagonist’s enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, when powerful figures saw a young person with limitless potential, they were more than happy to extend an olive branch and pave the way for the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mu glanced back at the Liu State Governor, cleared his throat, and said, \"State Governor, don’t even think about it. The Observatory can offer Shen Bai a fast promotion track as well. Between the two departments, the Observatory is a better fit for him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words already carried a protective tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, for the Liu State Governor to try and poach Shen Bai right in front of him was a sign of disrespect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Liu State Governor had simply been overeager. Seeing Elder Mu’s guarded reaction, he knew he had been presumptuous. He clasped his hands and said, \"Please, don’t take offense. I was merely overcome by my appreciation for his talent. Since Shen Bai wishes to remain with the Observatory, then so be it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they were speaking, Liu Wufeng finally awoke from the Dream Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering the Dream Realm, he and his group had been wandering aimlessly in a vast, white expanse, unable to find the supposed Nightmare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then, the Dream Realm had suddenly collapsed, forcing them out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What in the world happened?\" Liu Wufeng asked, looking at the cracked Wooden Eye in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He understood nothing of the situation and was completely unaware of what had transpired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mu thought for a moment before explaining what had happened, all the while watching Liu Wufeng’s face, hoping to see a particular expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, after Liu Wufeng heard the whole story, his face was a mask of pure shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? Shen Bai forced Landlord Long to use her Secret Technique of embodying the uncanny, and he *still* resolved the situation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Mu nodded with certainty. \"Lord Liu, you’ve really struck gold this time. Shen Bai is the greatest treasure of our Fenglin State Observatory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Wufeng looked at Shen Bai, the complex emotions in his eyes practically overflowing. \"I never imagined you’d already come this far.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Bai shook his head. \"It was just a stroke of luck. I happened to find the rule for breaking the Dream Realm. If I had to face Landlord Long’s Forbidden Technique head-on, I truly wouldn’t have been confident in the outcome.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1072,"2026-06-03T14:13:27.146Z","2026-06-03T14:13:33.433Z",1,"novelbin.me","5d027e55a2e196c9c4145c51db317db28388c8912d761e0d31ad483ea39cbae4","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-232","i-can-extract-divine-power-chapter-230",322,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-extract-divine-power-cover.jpg"]
