Bulwark of Light

Chapter 539 Styx
"Dream?"

Hearing this, Zhong Yuan shook his head: "Brother Gu... It's not that simple to enter a dream. My realm is much higher than yours. Even if you relax your mind, it may be difficult for you to enter my dream."

What Zhong Yuan said was the truth.

It is extremely difficult for an ordinary spiritual supernatural person to hypnotize a supernatural person of a higher level.

Needless to say, it spanned two full stages.

"If you don't try it, how will you know?"

Gu Shen smiled and said: "Brother Zhong Yuan, if you want to believe me, why not let go of your spirit..."

"it is good."

Zhong Yuan closed his eyes.

He let go of his spirit and fell into a state of relaxation.

A few seconds later, he felt a ray of fiery intent coming from between his brows... and then the "uneasiness" that lingered in his heart slowly swayed away.

This feeling has never passed since I came out of the Duolu River.

With Zhong Yuan's cooperation, Gu Shen entered his dream.

The characteristic of blazing fire is actually very mild.

Gu Shen's real level of spiritual power now is the peak of the third level, and he is trying to break through the realm for the third time, so in fact, there is not much difference between him and the fourth level transcendent.

When escaping from the storm, he could even hypnotize the entire second team, including thirteen extraordinary people including Yuan Yuan, by himself!
It can be said that Gu Shen can hypnotize any transcendent whose spiritual level is below the title, as long as he relaxes his mind.

of course.

If the opponent resists... that's another matter.

……

……

Zhong Yuan's dream was surrounded by a layer of black mist.

Black flakes of snow drifted head-on.

After entering the dream, Gu Shen came directly to the foot of the "Snow Mountain" in Zhong Yuan's dream.

Looking back, the Duolu River is meandering at the foot of the mountain, and in the distance is a high mountain peak that blocks the sky, and all the light seems to be blocked by that high mountain.

Gu Shen knows that this is just a dream... The scene in the dream does not completely correspond to the real appearance in the "disaster".

But maybe, he can find the clue that caused Zhong Yuan and Mu Wanqiu to be "uneasy".

"It seems...not caused by the 'river poison'."

Gu Shen suddenly had such a premonition in his heart.

Their uneasiness has nothing to do with Pluto.

After confirming that the dream was stable, Gu Shen slowly walked towards the top of the mountain.

He walked very slowly and was not in a hurry. Although he was just a "bystander", he also needed to be careful when entering such a nightmare... The real disaster can be spread through the spirit.

Black snow fell one after another.

Gu Shen stood still, he always felt that these "black snows" were a bit strange, not just black snow flakes.

"Blazing... come out."

A faint flame ignited in Gu Shen's hand and turned into a lantern.

He carried the lantern and walked towards the top of the mountain.

"The resistance is starting to increase..."

Gu Shen's expression froze, and he felt the snow clinging to his body became heavier... It seemed that there was an invisible force that was stopping him from moving forward.

"Could it be that...the front is the source of 'unlucky'?"

Gu Shen raised his head.

He stared closely at the top of this snow mountain... The sun was blocked by the mountain peak, and only a ray of light was exposed, which made people feel dazzling and strange. There was no warmth on this snow mountain, only cold.

The cross pendant also sent a faint guidance.

I didn't expect...even if I was in a dream, this sealed item could still work.

Gu Shen stroked the pendant and murmured softly: "Is this telling myself that it's best not to move forward?"

The guidance inside the pendant is very slight.

Gu Shen thought for a moment.

"This place is just a dream... I can withdraw at any time and climb to the top of this Black Mountain, so what?"

He was really curious.

If you really climb up, will you be able to see the scene of "the world is a mirror" as Zhong Yuan said?
However, reason told Gu Shen.

The purpose of this dream has been achieved.

He has confirmed that Zhong Yuan's "nightmare" did not originate from Pluto.

"Dream...dissolved."

Gu Shen took a light breath, shook the lantern away with his hands, and chose to stop here.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

The sky is black and snowy, and the dance begins.

The withdrawal of the dream should have happened in an instant... But this time there was an accident. The wind swept across the snow-capped mountainside, and the black snow swarmed up like bats, trying to drown people.

Gu Shen's pupils contracted.

He was pushed down the mountain, and when he fell heavily, a ray of sky light flashed, and he saw the "mirror dream" that Zhong Yuan said.

The whole world is a huge mirror.

But the mirror at this moment is no longer a mountain.

but the sky.

The black snow filled the air, and the lacquered sky was "clear". He just fell, but it seemed as if he fell into a lake and fell back into another world.

"Boom"!
Gu Shen returned to reality, his back was soaked in cold sweat.

How is this going?

The subject of this "mirror dream" is not the mountain at all... Is this a "curse" for every dreamer?

Gu Shen stretched out his hands, feeling lingering in fear.

The cross pendant slowly exudes warmth on the chest, reminding Gu Shen that everything is over.

He has returned to reality.

But Gu Shen still felt oppressed in his heart.

He had the same illusion as Zhong Yuan... He always felt that there were two worlds at the two ends of the mirror, one side was real, and the other side was false, and he seemed to have come to a false world.

Zhong Yuan slowly opened his eyes, he felt that his spirit was much better.

But looking away, Gu Shen's complexion was slightly pale.

"Brother Gu, you can actually fall into a dream..." Zhong Yuan let out a foul breath, "Did you see that black mountain?"

"……Um."

Gu Shen got up and went to the bathroom, took a handful of water to wash his face, and repeated this action over and over again.

After more than ten seconds, he slowly recovered from this weird "sense of confusion".

The fire is burning, the heart is beating, everything is normal.

But after leaving that dream.

But it seems that a seed has been planted in his heart... Gu Shen uncontrollably had an illusion, he felt that the world in front of him was "false".

"Are you ok?"

A voice suddenly came from behind.

Gu Shen was in such a daze that he didn't even notice the movement in the room.

He rubbed his cheeks hard, smiled wryly, and said frankly: "Your dream...has a bit of stamina."

Been dreaming so many times.

What nightmare haven't you seen?

This situation... is really the first time!
"But it's not a big problem." Gu Shen said earnestly, "I'm not a person who entered the disaster zone personally, I just took a peek at the content of the dream... There won't be any serious sequelae."

Because he obeyed the guidelines of the cross pendant.

The sense of confusion between truth and falsehood comes quickly and dissipates quickly.

Gu Shen quickly returned to normal.

This kind of rootless spiritual curse cannot be endless, so how can he stick to himself all the time, but because this time he watched the black dream and shared part of the curse, Zhong Yuan's pressure should be relieved.

"For this matter, I also want to thank you."

Zhong Yuan said in a deep voice: "Your spiritual power is indeed amazing... Brother Gu, you shouldn't be an ordinary transcendent, right?"

Gu Shen smiled and said nothing.

He poured another cup of tea and motioned Zhong Yuan to sit down, "I'm very interested in what happened in the disaster area of ​​the Duolu River... This time the restart mission is actually to find [door], have you ever thought about [door] 】Maybe it’s in the snow mountain?”

"What happened to me, as well as this dream, was reported to the army commander as soon as possible."

Zhong Yuan shook his head, and said in a low voice: "The investigation team sent people to that snow mountain later... Except for me, no one was abnormal, and they didn't have a similar 'illusion' after they came back."

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows.

This is interesting... Could this be a "spiritual curse" targeting Zhong Yuan alone?
Or, when he climbed the mountain, he accidentally touched something, which caused this mirror dream to come?
"Where's Mu Wanqiu? What about her dream?" Gu Shen became interested and continued to ask.

"Xiaoqiu..."

Zhong Yuan paused, a little embarrassed: "She refuses Lu Zhe to sleep, and also refuses to be hypnotized... You should know that in this case, we have to respect the opinions of those involved, and..."

When Gu Shen heard this, he understood, and turned around to continue: "Besides, the mental power of the person involved is strong enough. If there is no permission, even the captain of the first team will not be able to fall asleep smoothly."

"Yes." Zhong Yuan sighed softly, "I don't know, what did she see, why should she refuse others to dream?"

Mental state is not good.

It is the best thing to have a reliable, spiritual transcendent who is stronger than himself and is willing to enter the dream for treatment.

In the entire Beizhou, few people are more suitable than Lu Zhe.

But Mu Wanqiu refused, and sternly opposed it...she chose to fight against the "nightmare" alone, which was something Zhong Yuan couldn't understand.

"Bang" sound.

Gu Shen put down the teacup.

Zhong Yuan was slightly taken aback, "Little Brother Gu... What are you?"

"Mu Wanqiu is upstairs, right?" Gu Shen said, "I'll visit her."

……

……

long night.

The endless night.

The river was churning with furious waves. Standing on this broken log, Mu Wanqiu looked up, but she couldn't see the end of the big river. She could only see endless darkness and infinite depth.

Behind her, there was a huge snow-white ghost figure floating.

He wears a high crown on his head, his robe flutters, his face is pale, and his lips are bright red.

This is the S-level ability that the investigative legion has spared no effort to cultivate, [Judge]... This ghost figure spread its arms wide and stretched across Mu Wanqiu's back, like a huge mast. confrontation.

[Judge] The fangs are intertwined, staring at the distance.

This lonely boat struggled to survive the raging waves, desperately crashing into the end of the long night.

In Mu Wanqiu's hand, she was holding a black brush that was as tall as a person. She used the brush as a paddle to stir up her spirit, and wanted to fight against the rapids!

It's a pity that this big river is blacker than all the ink in the world.

No matter how she writes and draws, it is useless...

In this darkness, forward and backward seemed meaningless.

I don't know how long the struggle has been, but the darkness has not dissipated, but has become more intense.

Mu Wanqiu stared at the silhouette looming in the dark night.

That is the upper reaches of the "big river".

At the end of this endlessly dark nightmare stands a tall, dark and gloomy throne.

And at the foot of the throne, in the middle of the river, there is a tenacious stone standing upright.

There are two words written on it.

"Styx."
