Above Destiny

Chapter 497 Dream Bubble
The magnificent spear was like a pillar of heaven. At this moment, it pierced through the sky and as it fell toward the earth and the ocean, it set off layers of storms. Visible waves spread out from the peak of the burning red crystal, layer after layer.

The seemingly slow fall was just an illusion when compared to the exaggerated scale. The moment you noticed it, it was already within reach!
"Wen Wen!.!!"

The three-headed snake roared angrily, and six scarlet eyes raised up, staring at the Sky-Falling Spear. The harsh sound continued to ring out between heaven and earth.

Revision after revision, rejection after rejection, and virtual-real conversion after virtual-real conversion...

Totally useless!

No matter how one denies and resists the existence of the other, all the transformations, heart pivots and even etheric techniques acting on it cannot deny this pure substance.

Matter is existence, and the gathering of all matter in the world is ruins.

The purest eternity lies in the purest matter.

There is no need for illusions, no room for luck or expectations, no hope, and no despair. The existence and disappearance of matter is the manifestation of eternity.

Never affected by the observer's likes and dislikes!
The clash between transformation and ruins had already been decided before it even began!
As early as the raw stone level, Wen Wen was already the chosen one of the ruins who touched the essence of the dragon. When she completely removed the shackles and embraced the essence eroded by the vortex, the eternal power of Minerva finally emerged from her hands.

At this moment, pure matter fell from the sky, cruelly bursting all bubbles, shattering all dreams, allowing the power of the remains of the yellow millet to continue to erode, unwaveringly!
boom! ! ! !

With a deafening roar that shook the earth, the red-hot crystal spear penetrated the distance between heaven and earth, and pierced through the blood eye between illusion and reality right in the middle, and even the ferocious three-headed giant snake below, nailing them to the earth.

Then, countless crystals grew out from the deserted island, as if a magnificent scene that had been deposited in the cave for billions of years, and the criss-crossing huge crystals turned into a forest, covering the entire Punabandu.

"Long time no see, trash."

As the Sky Pillar Spear descended from the sky, Wen Wen stepped on the giant snake's head and lowered her eyes to greet him, "After so many years, it's time to end it all."

"You think you can win? Dream on!" The big snake roared, "You are dreaming!"

The giant snake squirmed, ignoring the shackles of the Spear of the Pillar of Heaven, and its three heads rose high. But then, thunder sounded in the distance, and hunting fingers flew towards it, whistling!

A hammer and a giant axe.

With the ultimate blessing of projection skills, the fleeting flying light reveals a breathtaking beauty. Spring is fleeting and good times are short.

Bitter day.

The giant snake hissed in pain, one of its heads exploded, and the other head was severed at the root. No matter how its flesh and blood squirmed, it would be difficult to revive.

And right on the center of the raised head, the Dragon Fire Spear had stabbed down again, with all its strength and without reservation. In an instant, it pierced through the skull. The Dragon Fire rolled and spread, and absolute destruction flowed and gushed out from the flames, covering everything.

Lore!

The sound of cracking was heard, and the whole world seemed to be collapsing rapidly. As death spread, the three-headed snake hissed, and from the broken body, a deformed face emerged from the squirming flesh and blood, full of resentment, staring at everyone present.

"You will sink into the illusion of paradise and struggle to your heart's content!"

The broken snake head enveloped in flames raised up and opened its mouth, revealing the cracked gem, which it then bit into pieces!
Snapped--

Huangliang's remains were completely shattered!
An unstoppable dream shot out from it like a waterfall, spreading out, and in an instant, it enveloped the entire sea and swallowed up everything.

But at that moment, a tall figure appeared in front of the spreading torrent.

He held the Dragon Fire Spear upside down in both hands and suddenly stabbed it down towards the ground.

In a flash, the eternal wall that rejected all illusions and fantasies rose from the ground, like a reef, cutting the tide of illusions in the middle and opening up a narrow gap.

Amid the sound of the crystal breaking, Wen Wen gritted her teeth and finally shouted:
“——Ji Jue!!!”

"receive."

Ji Jue no longer hesitated, and stretched out his hand towards the crumbling tower in front of him, and clenched it suddenly - locking completed, spiritual essence was diverted, and the entropy beam energy formula was deployed -

Amid the harsh sound of steel rubbing against each other, the Prosperity beneath his feet was split in the middle. Countless machines rose from the darkness, and finally, the huge cannon barrel extended out from Ji Jue's workshop.

All the spiritual energy reserves in the workshop were used up, and countless materials were consumed to complete the final intensification and triggering. The entire hull suddenly burned red, like the flames of hell raging and spreading.

A light even more intense than that of a fusion bomb gushed out from it!

After combining the fluid alchemy of the sage Mercury with the engineering alchemy inherited by the Ye family, the resulting work of heaven is the [Tears of Isis]!
emission--!!!
For a moment, the whole world turned pure paleness. Everything was dim and colorless. In the torrent of that mighty and fierce light, everything seemed to be shattered one after another like bubbles.

Only pure light rushed forward, engulfing everything.

Completely, drowning out that dull face.

Evaporated into ash.

Above the sky, there seemed to be an indifferent cold snort, and then, a crack suddenly appeared, and tremendous power surged, but then, the cold snort turned into a painful roar.

A chuckle sounded, so familiar.

It's like the wait has been long.

Suddenly, behind the thick clouds, it seemed as if some huge monsters collided with each other, and then endless blood spilled like heavy rain.

And at that moment, the tall tower, the big snake, the blood eye, the remains of Huang Liang, and even Wen Sheng, all melted in the fierce light and evaporated.

When the last ray of fierce light dissipated, all that remained between the dead and silent world were the ravaged islands and the charred earth.

When the sailors rushed to step onto the land, looked around, and touched the sand and soil under their feet, they could not help but burst into tears and shout with excitement.

"Hot earth! Hot earth!! Hot earth!!!"

The men from the north were in tears, hugged each other, cheered and shouted joyfully, it was so noisy.

But Ji Jue couldn't care less.

He walked on the broken rocks towards the burnt tower, searching hastily, and finally saw the lonely figure. But it was like a bubble, disappearing in the next moment.

Escape again.

When she turned around and looked at Ji Jue who was chasing after her, she seemed to be stunned, but soon, she seemed to understand something.

Once again, he smiled.

So brilliant.

"I always feel like I owe you another one, Ji Jue."

Wen Wen tilted her head and asked, "Is there any wine?"

"of course."

Ji Jue nodded decisively and smiled: "As long as you don't leave again, I'll give you enough wine!"

So, I won’t stop until I’m drunk.

One cup after another, the hearty feast lasted until the next day. When Ji Jue opened his eyes again, he found that he was still holding her hand.

Wen Wen woke up from her dream and opened her eyes. Seeing his stunned look, she smiled and took the initiative to hold his hand: "Why, are you still afraid that I will run away again?"

"yes……"

Ji Jue sighed and avoided her gaze, "If you run away, where can I find you?"

But she raised her hand again, forcing him to turn his head and look at her. When he smiled, his eyes were filled with bright sparkles.

"Then I won't leave."

She said, “Let’s go back together.”

"it is good."

Ji Jue looked at those eyes and couldn't help but fall into a trance.

Forget where you are.

"Wake up."

Someone shook his shoulder: "Wake up, Ji Jue."

"what?"

Ji Jue woke up as if from a dream. When he came back to his senses from his daze, he saw a familiar figure beside him.

"what happened?"

Wen Wen asked doubtfully, "Didn't you sleep well last night?"

"No, I'm just a little sleepy." Ji Jue replied with a smile, looking at his reflection in the floor-length mirror. The pure white gauze skirt was dragging on the ground, and the crystals dotted on it reflected the bright light, so dreamy.

But not as good as her eyes.

As if she was embarrassed by his gaze, Wen Wen felt a little awkward, her cheeks slightly red, and she avoided his gaze: "Is this dress suitable? I have never worn it before..."

"Suitable, very suitable."

Ji Jue answered decisively, admiring her shy look, and couldn't believe it: "It's like a dream."

"Is it a sweet dream?"

"Yes, it's like a dream."

Ji Jue reached out and hugged her slender waist, admiring the intimacy of the two in the mirror: "Maybe, at this moment, I am in a dream."

So, Wen Wen smiled again, hugged him, and moved closer. Her soft lips, without any decoration or make-up, were glowing with a crystal light, and her breath was gentle.

Feeling the fulfillment that had never existed in his dreams, Ji Jue stood there for a long time, then laughed at himself: "It would be nice if this wasn't a dream."

It turns out that I have ever had such a greedy desire in my heart?
He lifted Wen Wen's chin and moved closer without hesitation, feeling the dreamlike sweetness.

Snapped!
The sound of breaking was heard.

With the explosion and impact of spiritual essence, Ji Jue's eyes suddenly went dark, but everything that just happened seemed like a bubble and disappeared in an instant.

He opened his eyes again.

Seeing the devil's realm just ahead, Punabantu was still shrouded in illusions and fog, and had never changed at all.

Everything has not yet begun.

From the very beginning, have I actually been... trapped in it?
Ji Jue suddenly realized and sighed.

But the moment he woke up from his dream, he heard the hissing and roaring of a giant snake from the deepest part of the deserted island.

It's like, unbelievable.

"The plot is good, but it's a pity that there are too many clichés and the characters are too distorted." Ji Jue sighed regretfully, "I need to practice more."

boom! ! !
Amidst the piercing screams, spiritual fluctuations erupted, violently awakening the consciousness of those immersed in dreams. At the same time, fusion bombs fell from the sky.

Brutal shower of light and destruction.

Amid the raging air waves, the war resumed.

Soon, with the Tears of Isis fired again, the tower was broken in half again and burned to ashes. At this moment, under the huge mercury halo that occupied the sky, countless sharp blades hung high, piercing down like a rainstorm, nailing the giant snake to the ground.

Until the last moment, the giant snake's only remaining eye was still looking at him in disbelief.

"How is it possible...you..."

Snapped!
The sword blade fell, cutting it in two, and blood flowed out like a waterfall, raging.

Behind Ji Jue, cheers rang out again. Smiling faces were filled with joy and happiness, and they danced and celebrated the future that was about to be born on this hot land. But in the midst of joy, Ji Jue fell into a trance again.

How can it be?

Yes, how is that possible?
Everything went so smoothly, and all developments were within his expectations. Even the mastermind behind the scenes was severely injured by Tianlu Old Dog and escaped.

It was quick and neat, and as it should be, the remains of Huangliang were successfully taken. From then on, they were his!

Can……

My luck has never been so good!

Where is Sister Wen?
Where did Wen Wen go again?
He raised his hand, and the non-attack matrix flowed, extended, and pressed on his forehead, and began to search his cerebral lobes, memories, and soul inch by inch.

Carefully recall all the details and verify the reality before your eyes.

Come to think of it...how did I lock onto this location? Oh, yes, that's right, I remember now, ectoplasm, I left my ectoplasm beacon on the other party.

What did you use?

bullet.

He subconsciously pulled out the pistol that had been at his waist for many years. Every scratch on it was so familiar. It was the first masterpiece he had created.

When combined with engineering alchemy, it is possible to consume one's own soul and fire psychic bullets that have the ability to think and respond.

And pure...pure what? Purification, yes, the purification and infusion of fluid alchemy.

Engineering alchemy also played an indispensable role. After investing so much effort in the entropy system, it finally produced a fusion bomb that was infinitely close to the original effect.

But do I really have so much research on the entropy system? Although the scene in my memory is so profound, the impression is beginning to blur.

Wait, engineering alchemy?

project?

Why is this concept, which has only appeared in modern times, included in the thousand-year heritage of the Ye family? Could it be that similar seeds had already appeared in the Eternal Empire era?
No, there is...

But what else?
Ji Jue was thinking hard, and subconsciously rubbed his left wrist, and his movements stiffened again.

I felt empty.

When he lowered his head and looked at his wrist, he always felt empty.

It’s like, what’s lost?
What exactly is it?
Soon, those insignificant confusions were answered through recollection and thinking. After counting the past and the present, everything was seamlessly connected.

Moreover, since entering here, my consciousness has not been shaken or out of control at all.

Scare yourself.

Ji Jue laughed at himself, shook his head and sighed: No wonder Xinshu has such a bad reputation, once I get involved with him, I will feel sick for several years... Don't let me catch you again!
And so he walked towards a happy crowd.

After being busy for so long, it’s time to relax during this rare moment of victory. As for other things... let’s talk about it tomorrow!

So he picked up his glass with a laugh and joined the banquet.

Enjoy the present moment.

But why so uneasy?
disturbed.
.
"Wake up, Ji Jue."

It was as if someone was whispering in his ear, repeating his name, "Wake up!"
.
Ji Jue opened his eyes from the nightmare.

Outside the window, there was a heavy rain, and the rain kept hitting the window.

He was already sweating profusely.

"Isis, what time is it?"

"Four o'clock, Master. You rested for three hours." The workshop spirit replied, "You haven't had a proper rest time for two consecutive months. I suggest you at least make up for the sleep time."

"Sleep? After you die, you can sleep as long as you want."

Ji Jue got up, rubbed his face, felt the hard stubble and his messy hair. The person in the mirror looked like a beggar with bloodshot eyes.

But he didn't care and continued his research.

"Master, the association has sent a message - the Tiangong Mittler that you created half a year ago set a new record in the Tianshu auction today.

Mr. Gustav informed you that you have been included in the latest Grandmaster evaluation list..."

"Shut up."

Ji Jue waved his hand impatiently.

People are buying that kind of rubbish, are they crazy? After all, if something that is not outstanding can be rated as a masterpiece, the association must be somewhat blind.

Grandmaster evaluation?

I?
Is Gustave in his right mind?!
Ji Jue lowered his head, looking at the messy manuscripts on the table, and even the records and ancient books on the bookshelves behind him, and he felt his lungs spasming involuntarily.

Difficult to breathe.

The uneasiness of the past sprouted in my heart and gradually turned into fear.

It's like, marking time.

The humiliation of being left behind by everyone, the confusion of falling behind, the anger of not being able to make progress... How long has it been since I learned something new?!

It has been so long, why are there still no new theories? Why don’t teachers teach themselves new theories? Why can’t I get new secrets?

Why……

——I can’t move forward!

At best, he is just repeating past theories, and his posture of marking time is more graceful. How can he be regarded as a master?
Is that it?
Not enough! Not fucking enough!!!

Have I exhausted all my talents?

More than that!

There is a road ahead, but where is it?

Who took it away?

boom! ! !
"..."

Ji Jue covered his forehead and felt a deafening auditory hallucination. Thunder continued in the sky.

After a long period of silence, he opened his eyes again.

Determined.

He said, "Isis, prepare the work area."

"clear."

Isis's voice rang out: "Preparing, ready, master, the furnace is preheated, you can refine it at any time."

"No furnace is needed, and no refining is required."

Ji Jue walked towards the planing table, took over all the controls, and finally, pulled out the Mercy Bone Knife, pointed it at his own head, and stabbed it out decisively!

Since you can't figure it out, let's take it apart completely and have a look!
The blood flowed, spurted out from the wound, and then stagnated in place. Under the control of Feigong's hand, the skull was easily opened.

Ji Jue stared at the brain lobe reflected in the mirror, and scanned it inch by inch with his fingers. After careful analysis, he could not find any abnormal traces, so he went deeper...

The bone knife chopped down decisively.

Start slicing.

Soon, the brain tissue screening was completed and reinstalled. Ji Jue controlled the robotic arm to cut open the chest, exposing the bones and even the beating heart.

The heart examination was completed and the function was normal, so we started to check other internal organs.

That's it, from beginning to end.

Then, the soul appeared, and a sharp mercury knife flashed with a faint light, dissecting the matrix, stripping off the blessing, and then carefully examining every strand of spiritual essence.

I don’t know how long the long inspection lasted.

Until the pain gradually becomes numb.

Finally, a conclusion was reached.

Normal thinking, normal consciousness, normal perception, no dislocation, no distortion, body, brain, blessing, matrix soul, all are normal.

Everything seems to be the truth, flawless.

Maybe, I am just being paranoid.

Are you the only one who is normal? Didn't that old man Tianlu monitor the whole process? It's impossible that he made a mistake, right?
Maybe he was just too tired, too nervous, and needed some time to rest and relax with his friends. Have a drink, take a nap, and watch variety shows with his lazy senior for a few days.

Maybe he really has a problem.

Or maybe...

There is only one possibility left.

"The problem isn't me at all."

Ji Jue raised his head and looked out the window at everything covered by the storm, and made a decisive conclusion:
"——From the very beginning, this world was fake!"

Snapped!
There seemed to be a slight cracking sound.

In a trance, in the deepest part of the soul, a vague emblem like a bubble silently emerged for a moment, and then disappeared without a trace.

He is still sleeping in this self-made cocoon...

Beyond the bubble, there is another bubble; beyond the dream, there is still an illusion.
.
At this moment, Punabantu.

In the alienated demonic realm, there are no fleets, no dragon skeletons, and no outsiders.

There was only endless fog surging like a tide.

One rotting corpse after another sank and floated in the sea, rising and falling, singing, drifting towards the deserted island, one after another. The souls and consciousness of countless people infected with somnambulism responded to the call and drifted over.

From among the dead souls, gorgeous butterflies spread their wings, rose, danced, and landed on desert islands and reefs.

On the deserted island, in the middle of the ruined city, the tall tower no longer looks like it used to. Twisted branches that look like skeletons extend from it, as if it has become a dry and hideous giant tree.

Countless roots extended from the deserted island, entwined around the gathered corpses, greedily extracting souls and dreams endlessly.

A huge black snake coiled on the giant tree, its flesh and blood squirming silently, gradually merging with the tree.

The remains of Huangliang have already awakened.

The paradise of the past has reappeared in the world, greedily gathering all the illusions and fantasies, and reconstructing them again. And right under the tree roots, in one after another crystal clear dreams like bubbles, countless unaware souls are immersed in them, unable to extricate themselves.

In this endless long night, the fantasy with no end in sight has already begun!
Above the sky, Wen Zheng was quietly overlooking all this, still smiling.

What a beautiful scenery.
