I can find treasures in my dreams.

As the voices spoke, a clump of dark gray ink drifted to the side of the suspended bone pen.

A strange figure could be vaguely seen hidden within the ink mass.

It has a human-like shape, but trails a tail behind it, and appears to have two heads on top of its torso.

The shadowy figure continued muttering to itself, "The target has willingly walked into the death minefield. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Should I seize this chance to kill him?"

It stared at the bone pen, then hesitated, "The target's behavior is too strange. Could there be some kind of conspiracy involved?"

A few seconds passed.

The shadowy figure couldn't resist the temptation and finally made up his mind: "If I miss this opportunity, I don't know how long I'll have to wait. As long as I stay here, no Venerable One can do anything to me."

The voice just fell.

The dozens of pained faces on the surface of the bone pen opened their eyes in unison and began to wail.

"Ah~"

A ripple appeared instantly in the surrounding gray fog.

The bone pen trembled violently, and its tip moved rapidly through the air at several times the speed of before.

Wisps of black smoke flowed from the tip of the pen and disappeared into an unknown place.

As the bone pen moved, dozens of faces appeared exhausted, their eyes closing as if they had used up most of their strength.

The shadowy figure sensed for a moment, then spoke with murderous intent: "You're dead! Even if you have the ability to teleport, you can't escape this calamity orchestrated by the 'Writer of Fate'!"

The phrase "writer of destiny" sounds like the name of Bone Pen.

And being named after "fate" clearly indicates that it is an extraordinary supernatural object.

The shadowy figure paused for a moment, then murmured, "Your Majesty the Ghost, no, I should call you Mr. Yang, I will one day etch your face into the Writer of Fate."

The information implied in this statement is quite astonishing.

Firstly, it seems to know that the Ghost of the Azure Civilization is actually Yang Fan.

Secondly, each human face on the surface of the bone pencil seems to represent a powerful venerable being.

It's not hard to guess that these lords died one after another at the hands of the author of fate, and their faces appeared on the surface of the bone pen.

If the above facts are true, then this would be an extremely terrifying thing.

After a while.

The shadowy figure's tone turned amused: "It's starting! Mr. Yang Fan, are you ready for the surprise that fate has ordained?"

It kept saying "surprise," but its tone was filled with undisguised condescension and smugness.

After a while.

The shadowy figure's expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed, "What's going on?"

It clearly saw that dozens of human faces on the surface of the bone pencil opened their eyes at the same time.

The faces then closed their eyes all at once, and this cycle repeated several times.

This is something that has never happened to the Shadow since it obtained the Fate Writer.

It immediately sensed a strong unease, and its dark body began to writhe incessantly, muttering the same phrase over and over: "Something's wrong! Something's wrong!"

Tianfeng Plateau.

Just as the shadowy figure uttered the word "surprise," Yang Fan charged headlong into the terrifying circle of death lightning.

He made two leaps and disappeared from sight, then began a third leap, and then the dramatic change occurred.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Thunderclaps rang out one after another.

Five exceptionally thick pillars of lightning suddenly descended from the high sky and landed on a gentle slope in the distance.

The intervals between these lightning bolts were very short, almost as if they fell at the same time.

The strangest thing is that they all landed in an area of ​​150 meters in diameter, which is almost like hitting the same spot.

Even within the lightning circle, this is extremely rare.

But it happened anyway.

This is undoubtedly related to the author of fate.

next moment.

The incredibly explosive dark red lightning magma erupted like a volcanic eruption, shooting up to tens of meters into the sky.

The plasma surged and formed waves tens of meters high, sweeping outwards. At the same time...

Yang Fan's figure appeared out of thin air at the location where the five lightning pillars fell, and was instantly swallowed up by the wave.

Lei Zhi sensed the danger and instantly erected a protective shield.

But the power of the lightning plasma was too terrifying; the protective shield collapsed after only a short while.

Between lightning and stone.

"Bang~"

The tip of the thunder branch burst off, and numerous fine cracks appeared on the surface of the branch.

It spontaneously decided to self-destruct in order to withstand the raging lightning and thus protect its master.

Because the treasure and its master's soul have become one, they share a relationship of mutual benefit and loss.

If it's just a single lightning branch that self-destructs, without affecting the main body, as long as the owner is saved, it's a worthwhile deal.

this moment.

With a slight thought, Yang Fan stopped Lei Zhi from self-destructing.

Because it's unnecessary, it would just be a waste of a thunder branch.

By this time.

The violent surge of lightning plasma had already reached him, less than two meters away.

Yang Fan immediately activated the three backup plans he had prepared in advance.

The first one – past celestial phenomena.

This is to trace the mastermind behind it all.

Under normal circumstances, the mastermind behind the scenes is very well hidden, and in the past, astrology would not have been able to catch them out.

Now that the mastermind has used a killer move, the two sides have essentially established a stronger connection, greatly increasing the probability of a successful investigation.

It was precisely to solidify the relationship that he was willing to endure this blow.

The second one is the "Myriad Manifestations of the Heavenly Demon Eye".

More than a decade ago, this ability had already reached the superior level. After more than a decade of effort, its evolution level has been increased to 60%.

The Magic Eye also possesses the ability to trace back; when combined with past celestial phenomena, it can further increase the success rate.

The third one is the Dream Capital.

Tracing the mastermind behind the scenes in the real world is extremely difficult.

However, tracking the other party's soul projection from the dream world reduces the difficulty by an order of magnitude.

This is Yang Fan's ultimate reliance.

"boom!"

The lightning plasma completely engulfed Yang Fan.

With the strength of this clone, it was naturally impossible to withstand the lightning plasma. In an instant, it was reduced to nothing.

The mastermind's scheme succeeded.

However, this approach also exposed their true colors for the first time.

The reason it felt uneasy was because it sensed a potential crisis.

A dreamlike world.

Inside the Dream City.

"boom!"

The vast dreamlike paradise and the Mingtang Hall trembled simultaneously.

At this moment, Yang Wanyu and her brother Yang Yanchen were diligently training their dream power in the cultivation room when they were both startled.

Recently, the number of guides has increased to more than 400, and Yang Yanchen has finally been freed from his life of hardship and has more time to cultivate.

Yang Yanchen asked in surprise and doubt, "Big sister, what's going on?"

Ever since his near-death experience in his own study, the boy has become noticeably paranoid, and his body is completely tense at this moment.

Yang Wanyu glanced at her younger brother and reassured him, "Don't worry, the Dream Capital is very safe."

She focused her senses for a moment, and then gave a somewhat surprised answer: "It should be that Father has mobilized all the dream power accumulated in the capital."

She grew increasingly astonished as she spoke: "At least half of the dream power has been drained away. What on earth is Father doing?" (End of Chapter)
