Chapter 336: Airuohuge

Odaili was still thinking, and Suzi's voice continued to sound in her ears.

"Dreams? Then all the delicious things I ate last night are fake."

Odaili felt as if she heard a heartbreaking sound from Suzi's words; this dream also had a certain ability to confuse cognition and affect people's thinking. Why am I not affected? Is it because I've realized this is a dream and am no longer influenced by the subconscious? In the depths of the dream, Rex's consciousness wanders through layer upon layer of dream labyrinth; here the dream layers accumulate, vast as smoke and sea, and he can't even see the boundary.

"Not quite right. This isn't a normal dream labyrinth; have I fallen into some strange realm? Or is it an illusion acting on the spiritual level?"

In his pondering, Rex stopped his steps, and the pale blue light in his eyes surged.

Immediately, he leaned back, arms spread wide, as if embracing the sun.

A pure, blazing miniature sun, surrounded by countless holy flames, was summoned by him.

The miniature sun kept expanding; its blazing light swallowed everything, and the original dream labyrinth instantly turned into a blazing, blinding expanse of pure white.

"Indeed, it's not a dream labyrinth,"

In his muttering, he reached his right hand toward the half‑air, trying to dispel the surrounding light and restore the original appearance.

After a moment, there was no response at all.

He lost control of that miniature sun.

Rex didn't care at all; he casually chose a direction and muttered ahead:

"Airuohuge?"

"I came by the God of Knowledge's decree; at most I'm just a medium for your communication. Refusing to meet me is useless—when you exert influence on me, the Omniscient One has already seen you."

"Hmph! Traitor, still dare to try to communicate with me?"

"I'm not that cowardly old Alex, who merely turned to the traitor to prolong his life a bit."

An extremely oppressive voice directly echoed in Rex's mind; the intense 'shock' feeling caused his spirit a moment of confusion.

When he came to, the dazzling, blazing pure white gradually faded, revealing a towering mountain peak; at its summit lay a slender, lizard‑like monster.

Its body was the size of a small hill, its surface covered in huge gray‑white stone‑like scales, each etched with a complex, three‑dimensional mysterious symbol; its eyes were pale gold and vertical.

Rex merely glanced at the mysterious symbols on its scales for a moment, and his mind felt disordered, his thoughts twisted.

"A giant dragon—its true form is that of a mythical creature. After a thought flickered, he steadied his state, his voice somewhat low as he said: 'Airuohuge?'"

The gray‑white giant dragon perched on the summit seemed both infinitely far away and right before his eyes; its pale gold vertical pupils shone especially bright, clearly reflecting Rex's figure into its gaze.

In just an instant, Rex felt his body and mind stiffen, with no spare thoughts able to turn in his head.

"It's not just a pure 'shock' ability; it also mixes some psychological suggestion and hypnosis. When?' 'When you set foot in this realm.'"

"In front of an ancient dragon, to casually tread in dreams—your courage is far greater than that traitor's, to some extent." Airuohuge's voice directly echoed in Rex's mind, permeating his spirit, giving a feeling that makes the soul tremble.

He did it on purpose—what a nasty disposition. I'm just a messenger; what's the point of making things difficult for me? The God of Knowledge is watching here, each thought flickering through Rex's mind, soon calming down as he waits for the ancient dragon's answer.

"This is my mental domain; even a true god would find it hard to intrude."

Airuohuge's voice echoed in his mind, sounding very confident.

"Even the Omniscient One?"

Just as he opened his mouth, Rex suddenly felt the pressure on his body lessen greatly, and he could speak again.

Airuohuge didn't answer that question—perhaps out of disdain, or perhaps because he himself wasn't sure.

His voice still directly echoed in Rex's mind:

"You've been trying to recall the Dragon King and the 'Miracle City' just to draw me out? What do you want to tell me?"

An urgent desire to state the truth began to spread in Rex's heart, gradually growing stronger.

He didn't pay much attention to Airuohuge's guidance; merely pondering his words, he said: "The Miracle City's Levihid was hidden by the Dragon King in a book titled *Groserel's Travelogue*, which just happened to be taken by members of the Church of Knowledge."

"Inside that book lies a completely real world."

"The beings living in that world have their consciousness intertwined, also forming a mental world."

"Levihid is hidden deep within that mental world."

"Levihid." Airuohuge's voice, tinged with longing, echoed in Rex's mind: "When that book appeared, Levihid was still floating above the sky."

"Perhaps the Dragon King once imagined more than just one Miracle City. Have you been to Levihid? What's the situation there now?"

Airuohuge's voice gradually returned to calm, but as a prophet's intuition, Rex felt that this mental dragon was undergoing some subtle changes.

He was about to awaken. A thought flashed through Rex's mind, then he answered truthfully: "I haven't been to Levihid yet, but I know the situation there."

"There, the hall will directly echo the hearts of the surrounding beings; beneath the lofty throne lies a seal that seems to imprison the Dragon King's former fear and other negative emotions."

"On the stone wall behind the hall is also carved a mural, taking *Groserel's Travelogue* as its core, depicting stories from the Second Era through to the Fifth Era."

"Why not let *Groserel's Travelogue* meet Alasuohod's Pen? How did he know that Airuohuge is my lingering fragment? And why does he help me return?"

Airuohuge's voice interrupted Rex's narration; he could feel that the previous guidance and 'shock' acting on his body and mind had vanished, but his spirit felt even heavier, as if facing something utterly terrifying.

At this moment, the personality of the former 'Dragon King' Angeerde awakened in the ancient dragon Airuohuge, the fragment he left behind! He seemed somewhat more terrifying; his appearance showed no change. Hmm, not completely unchanged—his eyes became brighter and deeper, abnormally calm.
