Arad's unruly savior

Chapter 3941 The Pillow of Happiness

The sudden darkness swallowed up almost all the light, and the naked eyes of mortals could no longer see anything. Only a few powerful individuals could barely see the stars in the universe turn into blurry streaks of light, flashing across the sky like shooting stars, and being left behind in an instant.

Ye Lin brought the Endless Demon Chronicles world to the life-bearing planet "Yudia". Thanks to his and Sirocco's care, this life-bearing planet has far exceeded the time required for the development and evolution of normal species, and has a group of primitive life forms.

Normally, the succession and evolution of life species are often measured in "hundreds of millions of years," a process so long it seems tedious.

The Endless Demon Chronicles World was placed by Ye Lin on the edge of a continent, where the land was perfectly connected. A huge amount of seawater was pushed aside by the continent that fell from the sky, stirring up terrifying waves and making a deafening roar. It swept across the entire continent like a tidal wave, and the ground underfoot also felt a clear tremor.

In that instant, the warm light once again illuminated the endless world of demons.

Many people were so frightened by the thunderous sound of the tsunami that they turned pale, thinking it was a natural disaster and the world was about to be destroyed. Many others panicked and shouted, instinctively hiding in their homes or in small, safe places.

Only after the sounds of the earthquake and the loud noise gradually subsided did the natives of the Endless Demon Record emerge from their hiding places, still feeling lingering fear. Their legs were still weak as they looked up at the familiar yet unfamiliar sky above.

"What exactly happened?" Someone quickly calculated that about half an hour had passed since Benali announced the Great Transfer.

A gentle breeze stirred, and Benali, dressed in a red and white shrine maiden's outfit, stepped onto the beautiful cherry blossom bridge, holding a meowing umbrella in her hand, and happily announced:

"The Great Shift is over, and we have arrived in a new world."

Upon hearing Benali's voice, many people subconsciously frowned, wondering if she was playing some kind of prank. The "witch" lineage was most adept at deception and creating illusions.

It's important to know that nearly a hundred years ago, our ancestors spent ten years just preparing for the creation of a scroll that could traverse the void. Cutting off a corner of the world and drawing a star map were both enormous projects. Some of the necessary magical materials couldn't be found in the Endless Demon Record World, so they had to risk trying to capture them in the void.

But only half an hour has passed, which is not even enough time for a nap.

Benali, holding her meowing umbrella, stepped across a bridge made of cherry blossoms, spreading the good news to various towns: there would be no more strange phenomena, and there was no need to worry about the world's safety.

Ugna, from the desert region, and Ersri, from the frozen snowfield, exchanged a glance, and the former slowly spoke:
"At our speed, even with the influence of unknown environments, we can complete a round trip in half a day if we travel at full speed. I'll go north, and you'll go south. No matter what we see in half a day, we'll meet here."

Ersri nodded silently, then transformed into a howling, freezing wind, carrying fine snowflakes and ice shards, disappearing from the spot and heading towards the southern region of the Endless Demon Scroll.

boom!
Ugner stomped his foot, cracking the ground beneath his feet. His figure moved like an arrow, creating a terrifying sonic boom, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared nearly a kilometer away. He was heading in another direction to search for the truth.

……

"It rained just now, and there was thunder?" The door opened, and Bailey came out rubbing his eyes, still a little sleepy. Then he yawned a long yawn and stretched happily.

Like Xiaochu, she loves to sleep. She can close her eyes and sleep soundly whenever she wants. However, the two are slightly different. Xiaochu needs to sleep for sixteen hours a day, which has become an instinct. She feels uncomfortable if she doesn't get enough sleep and will keep yawning.

Pele mainly says that when she has nothing to do, she sleeps. She has always been calm and composed, without any anxiety about her appearance, figure, social status, or marriage. She feels that as long as she earns enough to live on, she is fine. She is carefree and relaxed. The absence of anxiety often means that there is nothing to do, so she just sleeps.

As for losing money in the stock market that time, it was mostly because she followed the crowd; everyone said to give it a try, so she did too.

Beyana fiddled with her spear, rolled her eyes, and said:
"I really want to see what you dream about every day. You always look so happy when you sleep. Do you never have nightmares?"

"Nightmares? I don't think I've had many." Bailey thought about it seriously for a moment, then nodded.

Sometimes I don't dream; I fall asleep and my consciousness goes completely black. When I open my eyes, it's already dawn.

My dreams are mostly strange and random thoughts. For example, I dreamed that Principal Sharon gave up her position as principal, which was inexplicable and definitely not scary.

Bailey's words were overheard by Benali, who was returning on the wind. Her eyes lit up immediately, and she said after landing:
"Pele, can I see your pillow?"

"Huh? Sure, but why are you looking at my pillow?" Bailey scratched his head, not quite understanding, then turned and went back to his room. Benali immediately followed, and the others, curious, also crowded around.

“Here, my pillow.” Bailey picked up a white square pillow covered with a pillowcase from the still unmade bed.

Her pillow was originally a sofa cushion, but Bailey took it and used it as a pillow. It turned out to be a perfect fit and very comfortable, so she has been using it as a pillow with a pillowcase underneath.

Benali held the pillow as if it were a treasure, and then asked, "Miss Bailey, how long have you been using this pillow?"

"I can't remember exactly, it's been several years, maybe six or seven years," Pele said, counting on his fingers.

"Have you been using it throughout this period?"

"Yes."

Thanks to the spatial items provided by Ye Lin, it is very convenient to carry daily necessities. Familiar things such as pillows and toothbrushes are always carried with them, and it is convenient to use one's own things.

The others who followed saw Benali repeatedly examining Bailey's pillow, her face filled with surprise and a smile, as if it were some incredible treasure.

“Miss Bailey, may I take a little bit of cotton out of your pillow? Just a little bit will do.” She used her thumb and forefinger to form a gap, indicating that she meant just a tiny bit.

"It works..."

Only after Benali carefully pulled out a strand of cotton and held it in her hand did she explain why she wanted Bailey's pillow.

Her lineage has many names, such as shrine maiden, onmyoji, wizard, exorcist, etc., and they possess many strange and mysterious spells, some of which require specific materials to use.

There has always been a strange saying in her lineage... As the most intelligent of all beings, humans are born with extraordinary spirituality, and the head is where the human soul flourishes, where the light of wisdom shines.

Then, humans spend roughly a third of their lives sleeping, meaning that for a third of their lives, their intelligent and spiritual minds are in close contact with their pillows.

Therefore, this lineage believes that the pillow is connected to the soul, a gateway for humans to enter the spiritual world during sleep, an object of the most recent wisdom, and a temporary dwelling place for the soul to travel back and forth to the spiritual world while sleeping.

Benali paused for a few seconds, took a breath, and then said, "However, human dreams, which are the mental world, are very difficult to manipulate. Good dreams and nightmares are both experiences and reflections of the mental world."

"Therefore, the properties of the pillow's adhesive are very murky."

There's a saying in her lineage that people who have never had nightmares must have pure and flawless souls. When the soul travels back and forth between the spiritual world and the pillow, it imbues the pillow with divine power. Over time, that pillow will acquire extraordinary spirituality and become an extremely precious material.

Using this material, combined with the magic of her lineage, she can create talismans that soothe the mind and calm the soul. Wearing these talismans can help those suffering from insomnia achieve restful sleep and also nourish a weak soul.

Basically, getting enough sleep improves your mental state.

This spell wasn't anything particularly powerful, but it was interesting, and she'd always wanted to try it. The problem was that the raw material—a pillow that hadn't been used for nightmares—seemed ordinary, since everyone has a pillow, but it was actually quite rare.

A pillow that's only been used for a few weeks or months has little spiritual effect, but a pillow that's been used for several years is bound to cause nightmares for its owner.

A single nightmare can pollute the dwelling place where the soul comes and goes.

“Miss Bailey, as a token of my gratitude for taking the materials, how about I teach you a spell?” Benali was going to teach Bailey a pillow spell, which was also an ability of her lineage.

The spell's effect is that it allows the user to see what dreams they had the previous night through their pillow, but this is limited to the previous night only.

Of course, it's not 100% effective; it's just something to try.

"This spell sounds really interesting, can we learn it too?" Maruko raised her hand high, it sounded really good.

……

As time passed and the sun gradually set, the Endless Demon Chronicles world welcomed its first "otherworldly" night. A bright moon rose, gilding the earth with a layer of cold, frosty silver.

When Ye Lin was transferring the Endless Demon Chronicles world, he paid attention to the seasonal issues and deliberately placed the world in a place with a season similar to the original one, so the seasonal changes were not obvious.

"Is the moon a little bigger than it used to be?" some astronomers are comparing.

Suddenly, two beams of light streaked across the night sky, one from the south and one from the north, before falling to the same spot. Ugner and Ersri met again at the pre-arranged location. After exchanging a silent glance, both were filled with complex emotions, and neither of them spoke for a moment.

After a long while, Ugner took out a section of emerald green branch, about a foot long, with leaves growing on it that were almost perfectly round and covered with veins like the lines on a palm.

He whispered:

“I stepped out of my domain, left the desert, and saw a new world, towering mountains and wild swamps. I had never seen a tree with such leaves before, never.”

"If this is Benali's illusion, then it is too terrifying."

Then Ersri opened his palm, revealing a handful of damp sand, as if he had grabbed it from the beach. The sand contained tiny silver-gray particles, substances whose effects he did not understand.

"This is what I found from the south..."

"But if it wasn't Benali's illusion, then there's an even more shocking reality: everything she said was true, and we were falling into a new world like meteorites."

"That adventurer's power has reached a level that we cannot comprehend or describe."

The night was silent, and after another long period of silence, Ugner, who was always proud and adept at taking on challenges, sighed with an extremely helpless and embarrassed expression:
"I actually wanted to challenge him and test his strength before, but now it seems that I was really overestimating myself."

……

Benali didn't really have a good idea about what would happen to the Endless Demon Codex. She didn't know what the world would become, whether everyone could work together to face the unknown, or whether the outlines of nations would emerge.

But perhaps that's what makes the "future" so fascinating.

“Let it develop naturally over time,” Benali said.

That night, the woman's long, shapely legs wrapped tightly around his waist like a rope, her starry eyes hazy, and she asked softly, panting:
"Didn't Benali send you a paper butterfly?"

"not yet."

……

The next day.

The demons and gods alike lamented their misfortune, as the star map was now useless. With the great shift of the endless demon records, the positions of the stars in the sky changed drastically, rendering the original star map obsolete.

Ye Lin pointed out the star coordinates to them, then opened a spatial gate, packed up these troublesome guys and sent them to Wuling, giving Ergenzi a period of peace and quiet.

Whether they can get rich or acquire good stuff depends entirely on the blessing of the fat carp.

Then Ye Lin led Benali to the easternmost part of the Endless Demon Scroll. The land swept past their feet, the mountains and fields disappeared in the blink of an eye, and finally, the damp scent of the sea and the boundless, magnificent atmosphere rushed towards them.

The Endless Demon Chronicles world has no concept of oceans; this is the first time Benali has ever seen the sea.

"This is the ocean...!" Benali's delicate face was filled with shock. The vastness stretched as far as the eye could see, and the boundless sky seemed to merge with the sea at the edge of her vision.

Just by looking at her, she felt something deep inside her cracking, bursting forth, surging with the urge to shout, to vent, to stand taller.

Mahu, carrying a travel bag, was also stunned, while a flag with cat paw prints was waving wildly next to the bag.

At the same time, in Benali's eyes, she also saw that the ley lines belonging to the Endless Demon Codex had perfectly merged with the ocean and land of this planet. The original decaying aura had been completely wiped out, and not a trace of dust could be seen.

Whoosh!
Mahu was the first to rush into the surging sea, tumbling and crawling all the way.

Benali smiled knowingly, then turned to look at Ye Lin, her eyes filled with a special emotion as she gazed at the lines of his face and his deep black eyes.

Feeling her gaze, Ye Lin smiled at her, lowered his head and kissed her soft lips, skillfully prying open her neat teeth and entwining them with the smoothness in her mouth.

Then, he slowly kissed Benali's collarbone, buried his face in her high-rising shrine maiden robes, obscuring her cheeks, and touched the delicate curve of her skin with the tip of his nose.

It's confirmed; her panel is significantly larger than Xiaoyu's.

Benali felt him like a baby, her body trembled slightly, and she said:

"Xiaoyu, will she be angry?"

"Xiaoyu? She'll probably join."
