Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
“Hah?!”
Gushe made the exact same face as Ben’erba.
We’re going up ourselves, to get rid of Them?
Gao Tianyou, do you even hear what you’re saying?!
Don’t I want to go up there and slaughter everyone, kill all these Supreme Avatars and Supreme Emperor Weapons?
Gushe stared at Gao Tianyou.
Gao Tianyou smiled awkwardly. He spoke in a low voice. “This is Lin Qi’s idea.”
“No shit.”
“I figured you wouldn’t have the guts to say something like that.”
“Lin Qi has a plan, right?”
“Fine.”
“How many Supreme Avatars did he send?”
Gushe perked up. She knew that old silver coin Lin Qi definitely wouldn’t just sit back and watch Yuyao die.
Sure enough, he still had a card up his sleeve.
So this was about luring the snake out of its hole, then wiping them all out in one net.
He’s so bad. Hee hee. I love it.
“Does the Reincarnator Army count?”
Gao Tianyou said softly.
“What do you think?”
Gushe glared, uneasy inside. “Then how many Supreme Emperor Weapons did he send over?”
Gao Tianyou fell silent.
“He gives us nothing, and just tells us to go up?”
“Why doesn’t he go himself!”
Gushe laughed in anger.
“He gave a Verbal Edict.”
“And had me handwrite a Golden Edict.”
Gao Tianyou answered honestly.
This time it was Gushe’s turn to fall silent.
She looked at Gao Tianyou in disbelief.
She thought she was already quite trusting of Lin Qi.
Back then, just one affirming glance from Lin Qi, and she had resolutely sacrificed herself to become a demon and joined the Heavenly Demon Clan.
But it turned out the one who truly trusted Lin Qi was Gao Tianyou.
Well, well.
Open your eyes wide and look carefully.
What’s right in front of you, going all out, is a Dharma contest between a bunch of Supreme Avatars and Supreme Emperor Weapons.
The entire Holy Hall Cosmos was blown apart by a single strike from Them.
Not afraid? Not terrified?
Where did you get the courage to rely on a single Verbal Edict from Lin Qi and a Golden Edict you wrote at his instruction, and charge up there saying you’ll get rid of Them?!
Is living really so bad?
“Lin Qi wouldn’t harm us, right?”
Gao Tianyou said softly.
Gushe, who had been about to curse him out, suddenly felt her heart stir.
Yeah.
How could Lin Qi harm us?
So.
Gushe frowned. She still couldn’t figure it out.
But if she couldn’t figure it out, she just wouldn’t think about it.
Lin Qi wouldn’t harm them anyway.
Then she just had to charge in brainlessly.
“Fine.”
“Then wait for my signal.”
“If the Dusk Mother Goddess’s origin core is tampered with, I’ll call you the first thought.”
Gushe said softly, then widened her eyes, enduring the pain of being blinded by the radiance, staring fixedly at the Dusk Mother Goddess, who was wrapped layer upon layer like a nesting doll.
Wrapped by Kunlun Jade Pool, the Empress Wa Banner, and the willow branch in the hand of the King of Freedom Buddha’s avatar.
As for the battle between Emperor Qionggao and Dao Ancestor Qingping.
Gushe had no attention to spare for it.
It was probably a draw anyway, neither able to do anything to the other.
After all, back in the Ancient Era, there might have been gaps between them.
But now they were all Supremes, with billions of years of accumulated cultivation, their Dao Paths all walked to the end.
They simply couldn’t break each other’s moves.
…
“The Empress Wa Banner went to the Holy Hall Cosmos too?”
“Then Ali should have fallen into the Supreme Eastern Emperor’s hands, right?”
At the Foot of Mount Xiangji.
Lin Qi sat in a recliner, looking up at the sky.
The Heaven Demon Macrocosm and the Holy Hall Cosmos were too far apart.
Even the shockwaves of a Supreme Dharma contest couldn’t reach the Heaven Demon Macrocosm for the time being.
But Lin Qi saw it all as clearly as the lines on his own palm.
Whether it was this Supreme Struggle that had blown apart the entire Holy Hall Cosmos, or the Supreme Eastern Emperor’s avatar on the other side, slaughtering into the Demon Race army and capturing Ali.
Nothing could escape his eyes.
Yet he was unhurried, utterly composed.
He showed no worry for these two matters that would decide the life and death of Yuyao and Ali.
Because under the greater trend, everything left traces to follow.
And what was the greater trend?
Right now, he was the greater trend.
Even though he bore the Supreme Curse, his spiritual power entirely gone, his hands empty, unable even to leave this tiny Mount Xiangji.
Everything was still within his grasp.
The only person who truly worried him now was one man.
That was the Heaven-Abandoning Emperor.
Because even now, he could never be certain whether the Heaven-Abandoning Emperor had ever regretted it.
…
Likewise At the Foot of Mount Xiangji.
Twelve Billion Nine Hundred and Sixty Million Years Ago.
The Heaven-Abandoning Emperor wore a crown and sat upon the throne. In the very place where Lin Qi loved to lie and gaze at the heavens, he too was looking up at the sky.
Above the sky, shadows churned.
It was the expansion of shadows from the Dream Abyss.
This meant that in the great battle between the Supremes and the Heavenly Immortals, the Supremes were gradually gaining the upper hand.
Thus the Dream Abyss, which had originally spread out from the origin of the Myriad Realms, began to wildly erode and expand through time and space.
But this erosion and expansion had already stalled beyond the heavens of the Heaven Demon Macrocosm for a long time.
This meant that the Supremes, who should have been gradually gaining the upper hand in the battle with the Heavenly Immortals, had once again unavoidably fallen into a stalemate.
Only this time, the reason was not the Heavenly Immortals’ desperate counterattack.
But rather.
“What a fine play of Dog Bites Dog.”
“Heaven and Earth are not yet settled, and you all can’t wait to start Internal Strife?”
“This Venerable truly overestimated your fragile alliance.”
The Heaven-Abandoning Emperor’s gaze was like a torch. Even though he was in the distant Twelve Billion Nine Hundred and Sixty Million Years Ago.
He could neither peer into the future Age of Great Contention.
Nor grasp the battle between the Supremes and Heavenly Immortals of the past.
Yet everything seemed to be within his grasp.
For no other reason.
Under the greater trend, everything left traces to follow.
And the Heaven-Abandoning Emperor also felt the greater trend was with him.
This was not the nameless confidence passed down through the Old Lin family line.
Rather, it was because the Heaven-Abandoning Emperor, like Lin Qi, had already seen through the conflicts of the situation as it had evolved to this point.
This Supreme grand scheme, originally initiated by the Supremes, which the Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm had no choice but to reluctantly follow.
After a series of efforts by Lin Qi and the others.
Had already begun to gradually break away from the original main line of confrontation between the two great camps of Supremes and Heavenly Immortals.
It could not be said to have fallen into a chaotic situation of each fighting for themselves and internal strife.
But it had indeed changed from a bipolar confrontation into a multipolar competition.
And the most critical reason for that.
Naturally, it was Lin Qi’s speculation and deduction regarding the New World of Earth.
But equally indispensable was the Heaven-Abandoning Emperor’s wanton slaughter in this distant past.
The Heaven-Abandoning Emperor’s butcher’s blade was turned not only toward the Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm, but also toward the Five Supreme Forces, and even toward the Nine Spirits of the Dream Bubble Shadow.
With the most extreme madness.
From another direction, the Heaven-Abandoning Emperor brought a crisis the Supremes and Heavenly Immortals could not ignore.
Making Them realize that besides Lin Qi’s unacceptable possible outcome of the New World of Earth.
A mad Heaven-Abandoning Emperor likewise possessed the potential to make Them either succeed or perish.
But as it happened, the situation had developed to this point.
This scheme initiated by Them had reached a point where it could not be halted, could not be stopped.
The rolling Great Destruction they had once stirred up with their own hands, enough to sweep along the Myriad Realms and the Myriad Beings, was now likewise sweeping Them onward.
It was not that no Supreme had tried to pause first, for everyone to sit down and plan anew.
But what of the cost?
Even if They could persuade the Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm to cease fire, and everyone first join hands to clean up the old mountains and rivers and reshape the old order.
By the time They finished cleaning everything up.
Lin Qi’s side would probably have long since attained the Heavenly Immortal.
It was not that They feared a sect of ten Supremes truly being born on Lin Qi’s side.
The main thing was that having missed Lin Qi, to wait for the next Lin Qi.
How long would they have to wait?
Nobody knew.
More importantly, the number of Supremes who felt the situation was out of control and that this scheme should be paused was far fewer than the Supremes who still felt the advantage was theirs.
After all, Lin Qi had lost all his spiritual power and bore a curse.
And though the Heaven-Abandoning Emperor was mad, he was still within Their control.
As for the remaining Nine Spirits of the Dream Bubble Shadow, they were nothing but a bunch of walking corpses with price tags on their heads.
The Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm had already made a rare compromise.
The Eighth Commandment of the Dream Bubble Shadow: the Heavenly Dao had already descended.
Not to mention They still firmly held the trump card that could control the Peerless Young Master.
All signs indicated.
Although there were indeed signs of losing control on various fronts.
The greater trend was still in Their hands.
There were even Supremes who believed the Heavenly Immortal Macrocosm must be thinking the same.
Look.
What an interesting situation.
Everyone within the situation felt the advantage was theirs, that everything was within their grasp.
This truly was the most perfect scheme.
Because everyone could see, under the same circumstances, the image of themselves becoming the final winner.
Thus the rolling greater trend could no longer be stopped.
Any existence that tried to block it, even a Supreme, would likewise only be crushed beneath this rolling greater trend.
“I really want to go to the past and take a look.”
“To see Their Dharma contests and gambles.”
“And I really want to go to the future and take a look.”
“To see Lin Qi’s confidence.”
“Unfortunately, I cannot go.”
The Heaven-Abandoning Emperor sighed, then suddenly rose from the throne.
Nothing to do today, so he might as well kill a few Dao-Fusion cultivators for fun.
…
BOOM!
The Holy Hall Cosmos had completely become history in the Boundary-Wall Void Sea.
Matter flowed everywhere.
Whether it was things once as immortal as the Star, as great as Innate Spirit Treasures.
Or Ancient Gods, Heavenly Gods.
All the immortal greatness had long since been reduced, in this earth-shaking, unfathomable Supreme chaotic battle, to surging basic matter.
Reduced to rainbow after rainbow illuminating the Boundary-Wall Void Sea.
A vast amount of matter, bursting apart from the shattered Cosmos and escaping, rampaged all the way through the dark void of the Boundary-Wall Void Sea.
Charging toward one Great Cosmos after another.
Perhaps after a long span of time measured in hundreds of millions of years.
This matter escaping from the Holy Hall Cosmos would luckily crash against some Cosmos’s boundary wall.
Then be captured by that Cosmos, and even thereby give rise to a peerless Heaven’s Chosen deserving of the title Child of Destiny.
But that was destined to be a matter of hundreds of millions of years later.
For now, the best destination for this matter escaping from the shattered Holy Hall Cosmos.
Was still to be fought over and captured by the Reincarnators who had appeared at some unknown time beyond the Supremes’ battle zone.
Turned into resources for their own cultivation, or exchanged for Lord God points.
In short, the Reincarnators had come.
Under the Lord God’s compulsory mission.
Carrying shock, carrying awe, they had no choice but to form up into an army and rush over.
Then they would have no choice but to complete the despair-inducing mission given by the Lord God.
“It is heard that Supremes have thrown the world into chaos, that Supreme Avatars and Supreme Emperor Weapons contend in Dharma contest in the Boundary-Wall Void Sea, defying heaven and earth, arrogant and domineering, and already an innocent Cosmos has been destroyed by them. You Reincarnators should swiftly proceed there, act on behalf of heaven to enforce justice, and carry out the rightful punishment without error.”
“This mission may be named: Surround and Suppress the Supremes!”
