Chapter 538: Chapter 517: The Light Shines Upon the Great Thousand, the Whole World Turns White!
"Precept Taboo? Silent Observer?"
Wang Yuan’s body was above the Heavenly Gate, Yama’s Avatar resided below the Earth Gate, but the incarnation of Star Lord Taibai was exactly at the deepest layer of the collective human dream realm.
In this ghostly place where even time and space lost their meaning, there wasn’t any delay of course, and Qi Buyu had locked onto him immediately.
Instantly, a force originating from the same source as the "Yellow Millet Dream," brought forth by the Heavenly Official Descent Talisman, descended abruptly upon Wang Yuan’s head.
It also instantly restored the memories that had been blocked by the "Yellow Millet Dream."
However, just as Wang Yuan, who had luckily escaped one disaster, began to recover his memories,
the slight relief on his face from his narrow escape was immediately replaced by sheer panic.
He even cried out in shock:
"No good, I actually didn’t die!"
This was not because Wang Yuan suddenly lost his mind.
It was because this sudden "accident," although it temporarily saved the life of the Taibai incarnation, completely disrupted their original escape plan.
Of course, the one who needed to escape wasn’t Wang Yuan himself, but... Huang Wu!
But after the boundary between individual and collective dream realms was unexpectedly shattered, Wang Yuan no longer had time to react.
Clang——!
With a piercing Phoenix Call erupting from within him, a thread of brilliant silver light shot out, transforming into a beautiful Netherworld Phoenix with silver eyes, silver feathers, and a multicolored tail.
In its talons, it firmly grasped Wang Yuan’s Yang God, and together they soared skyward.
All that was left in their wake was Ji Gongsheng, who had been rapidly reduced to a dried husk by Bao Si.
Wang Yuan’s complexion, however, was extremely unsightly.
"A single oversight has led to the failure of our Plan A.
My Taibai incarnation didn’t die, the barrier between the collective dream realm and the Taiyin Star remained intact, and neither the ’Changgeng Accompanying the Moon’ power of Star Lord Taibai nor the ’Moon Rush’ power of Chang’e could be activated.
You were only one step away from taking refuge in the Moon Palace.
Who is ruining my plan?"
In fact.
After coming to realize that he was facing off against a Heavenly Official himself, Wang Yuan never thought that he could survive from the beginning.
He also didn’t fantasize about striking back at the Hundred-Eyed Spirit Official.
From the start, his only thought was to use the Taibai incarnation, one-third of his life, to create a chance for Huang Wu to escape to safety.
Only Huang Wu, a Green Seal Sage who practiced the ways of Taiyin and Dream Realm, could possibly escape from under the nose of a Heavenly Official.
The key lay in — the Taiyin Star!
If the Hundred-Eyed Spirit Official, the essence of the Tianshu’s "Sun and Moon Mountain" Mountain God, was currently the highest authority within the path of the Dream Realm,
then the Taiyin Monarch, who governed the moon, would definitely be the ultimate authority of the Dream Realm in the future.
Initially, Huang Wu inherited the powers of the Jade Rabbit’s ’Darkside Running,’ Chang’e’s ’Moon Rush,’ and the Jade Toad’s ’Death and Rebirth’ (Chapter 446) in one breath.
Especially the ’Moon Rush’ belonging to Chang’e: just by writing a Talisman Order, she could go to the "Moon Palace," which overlaps with the dream realm, anytime and anywhere!
It could be said that the collective human dream realm was her half-home turf.
According to the common knowledge of the Cultivation World, the inner world of all sentient beings is akin to a vast sea with countless islands, mainly divided into three parts.
The islands and land areas above the water’s surface represent the awakened part of their individual consciousness, known as ’Consciousness,’ or the ’Self.’ Activities like eating, reading, and farming... are all governed by this part;
The parts of the land submerged due to tidal movements represent the individual’s ’Individual Subconscious,’ which is the sediment of all one’s experiences;
And the sea bed that ultimately forms the base for all the islands is the ’Collective Unconscious,’ the historical sediment of a family, ethnicity, nation, or indeed all sentient beings.
From high to low, this signifies a person’s spiritual world moving from individual to collective, from individuality to commonality, until blending into the integrated collective unconscious.
Dream realms and collective dream realms are but attachments atop it, without any fundamental difference in structure.
Previously, the couple executed ’Phoenix Flying, Harmonious Clang,’ and before a great tide of "Yellow Millet" from the collective dream realm completely submerged them,
Huang Wu had followed the plan meticulously and hidden within the watery "Island" belonging to Wang Yuan, that is, within his ’Consciousness.’
Thus easily avoiding the tidal wave.
As long as the Taibai incarnation subsequently died in the dream, the individual dream realm would collapse along with it. The explosive burst of the ’Spirit and Body Unification’ power of his Yang God would be strong enough to penetrate the collective dream realm without warning.
Using the ’Changgeng Accompanying the Moon’ power of Star Lord Taibai as a bridge, they could catch it off guard, break through the blockade of the Hundred-Eyed Spirit Official, and send Huang Wu safely into the Moon Palace.
At least her life could be saved.
This plan may have seemed heroic.
But for a novice Martial Saint and an Inner Scene Realm Green Seal Sage to be able to save one life in the face of a Heavenly Official, it was something that could be boasted about for a lifetime.
As for Wang Yuan himself, it’s not as though there was no hope for him.
Once he successfully sent Huang Wu away, he would use her ’Mistakenly Matchmaking’ to capture a thread of fate.
He could then bind the marital ties of all the fragments of the Taibai incarnation’s corpse to himself and fish them back out of the dream torrent.
If lucky, with not many fragments lost, he could activate ’Changgeng Enlightenment’ to rewind time and piece together a new one, thus avoiding heavy losses.
Unfortunately, a perfectly good plan was entirely disrupted by Qi Buyu, who deeply despised the "remote commander."
Furthermore.
In this clearly meticulously designed "Yellow Millet Dream" that seemed like a scripted murder mystery, trying to escape from the hands of Bao Si was not so straightforward.
