My Endless Life.

Chapter 358 and Nightmare

Carol dragged Li Qi forward.

They came to the center of the capital of the Misty World and met Li Qi's parents from that life, as well as Ronnie, Li Qi's student from that life.

Their appearance was no different from what Li Qi remembered. In Li Qi's eyes, they were just indifferent passers-by, whose shapes were silhouettes with facial features outlined in black pen.

Li Qi knew why this happened, and also knew why Carol and the others appeared in front of him.

But Li Qi did not shout irrational words like "You are all fake" to these people.

He just obediently chatted with these people and talked about the past.

Li Qi's arrival made his mother Chris and father Ger in the foggy world very happy.

They really gave all their love to Li Qi, until they saw that Li Qi was indifferent, they disappeared like smoke.

Carol and the others left, and soon the images of Li Xueren, Li Wenxin and others appeared in front of Li Qi.

Next came Li Qi’s son, Li Bofan, and the descendants of the family he knew.

Compared to those who appeared before, Li Qi was more familiar with these relatives and friends from his previous life.

He could recognize everyone here, and he could also recognize all the descendants of the Li family who belonged to Li Qi's bloodline after Li Bofan.

Looking at them, Li Qi suddenly laughed and whispered to himself:

“When I was over a hundred years old in my previous life, I understood a truth.

“The past is the past after all. No matter how much regret it leaves, the past cannot be changed, and it cannot be returned.

"So, even if you let me see these, what's the point? I won't stop because of this. I will keep looking forward until there is no way forward."

As soon as Li Qi finished speaking, all the shadows in front of him turned into smoke and dissipated.

Instead, there is a pure white space.

There was only Li Qi in this pure white space, and nothing else.

After a while, a soft female voice came:
"Wouldn't you want to live with someone you cared about?"

"I do, but I know that what's past is past. No matter how beautiful the dream is, it's still just a dream. But I still want to thank you for letting me have such a beautiful dream."

Reacher said to the female voice.

Yes, this is a dream. Everyone in the town, including him, is actually in a dream.

Dreams are divided into the inside and the outside, and the two roads on the left and right are the roads leading to the inside and the outside.

But no matter which side you go, the other side will create a 'mirror image'.

That mirror image will be exactly the same as the original body. If, like Li Qi, one has practiced spiritual skills, the original body and the mirror image will be able to communicate with each other and convert each other.

So for Li Qi, he doesn't distinguish between the original body and the mirror image.

Once it comes into contact with the mirror image, no matter which side it is, it is the original body.

That's why Li Qi appears here.

If nothing unexpected happens, this should be a surface dream, representing a 'beautiful' dream.

And everything that was created before was not something that the person who was speaking actively created. She just moved Li Qi's spirit and made Li Qi himself transform into the characters in his memory that left a deep impression on him.

It was precisely because of this that Li Qi was not angry.

After all, everything comes from Li Qi's own memory, and is not something false created by others.

After hearing Li Qi's thanks, the female voice stopped talking.

She didn't continue speaking, but the white space was gradually disappearing.

Colors reappeared, buildings rose from the ground, and Li Qi's figure appeared in the town again.

He looked back at the mansion standing behind him. Inside the mansion, Sun Xiaoqing was looking at Li Qi with a little worry and nervousness, as if Li Qi had not set out yet.

But Li Qi himself knew that he had just left the town and gone deep into this superficial dream, but was finally sent back by the owner of the strange object.

She had no intention of asking Li Qi to leave, even though she knew that Li Qi was special.

But at the same time, she didn't mean to target Li Qi, it seemed that she just didn't want him to leave.

"Is it the price of the rare item, or..."

Li Qi wondered why the holder of the rare object would do this, but there was too little information at the moment and he couldn't guess the real reason.

After thinking for a while and unable to guess the answer, Li Qi turned his gaze away.

The scenery in his eyes overlapped with the scenery in his other self's eyes again, and he whispered to himself:

"That's the case during the day, but what about at night?"

If you go out from here during the day, you will have a sweet dream, then what will you encounter if you go out over there in the dark night?
Nightmare?
If it was really a nightmare, Li Qi would become a little curious.

Judging from the situation of this beautiful dream, the things that occurred in the dream were based on Li Qi’s memory.

The beautiful scenes that appear in Li Qi's dreams are all the beautiful scenes in his memory, or the beautiful scenes that he wants to realize.

If the same thing happens in the nightmare, it means that the thing that Li Qi fears most will appear there.

But the problem is that Li Qi himself doesn't know what he is afraid of.

I don’t know what will appear in the nightmare over there.

……

The daytime on the other side was peaceful.

Without knowing the truth about the town, the townspeople here continued to live as usual. Li Qi disguised himself as an ordinary child and wandered around the town.

Of course, he would also avoid the knight's sight during this period to prevent the knight from really causing trouble for Sun Xiaoqing, and also to avoid being treated as a child and protected by him.

After knowing that this was a dream, Li Qi's actions became quite free.

He no longer has to worry about the battery problem. After all, only his consciousness exists here, so it naturally does not need to consume batteries.

As for why he didn't notice this before, it was because Li Qi at that time didn't know that this was a dream. His subconscious mind believed that his body needed a battery replacement, so he always paid attention to the body's battery level.

Don't worry about that now.

Li Qi ran around the town, and no one doubted his actions, they just thought he was just playing around.

Li Qi ran around the entire town during the day to make sure that there was nothing unusual in the town.

It seems that as long as they do not violate the 'rules' of the town owner, the people here can live safely.

Li Qi explored the town during the day, and at night, while everyone was asleep, Li Qi opened the window in the room.

"After I leave, no matter who comes, don't open the window."

"What about your return?"

"I will open the window myself when I come back, don't worry about me."

Li Qi said as he jumped out of the window.

The small body fell on the lawn downstairs. Li Qi didn't even bend over and roll over. He just started away after landing.

After knowing that there was a conscious being here, Li Qi's behavior became obviously much bolder.

Because in the world of dreams, the strength of consciousness determines the strength of the dream itself, and in terms of the strength of consciousness, Li Qi believes that no one in this world can surpass him.

Hundreds of years of consciousness, coupled with the mental strength of the fourth level of Tiangong Soul Transfer, allow Li Qi to become a super-powered person with hypnotic abilities even in a world without any supernatural powers.

So there is no need to worry about Li Qi's safety here.

It would be better to worry about the safety of this unknown user of the magic item. Li Qi promised that as long as she dared to appear in front of him, he would take the magic item from her hand in an instant.

Stepping out of the mansion, Li Qiru gradually walked towards the town, just like he did on the other side.

But unlike during the day, when Li Qi left the town, endless darkness surged towards him.

The town disappeared into the darkness, and the moon in the sky disappeared at the same time.

All Li Qi could see was endless darkness, so dark that he couldn't see his hand in front of him.

Darkness represents the unknown and can most easily trigger people’s deepest fears.

But this was useless to Li Qi. He had no idea how much he had been through, and with his extraordinary strength, even if he couldn't see anything, he could still hear and sense it.

To him, darkness is not synonymous with the unknown, let alone the word "fear".

If the "nightmare" here is only this extent, then Li Qi would be a little disappointed.

But it was obvious that the darkness that enveloped Li Qi was just an appetizer, and the main course was to come.

After being enveloped in thick darkness for an unknown period of time, light reappeared before Li Qi's eyes.

As the darkness surged away like a tide, the familiar city street scene reappeared in front of Li Qi.

A person appeared in front of him, a man in a suit with short hair. Li Qi's pupils couldn't help shrinking when he saw him. He quickly flipped through his memory and found the man's name in the depths of his long-forgotten memory:
"Ma Chen?"

"Ok?"

The man in the suit heard Li Qi's voice, turned his head to look at him, then smiled and said:
"Good morning, Li Qi. Why are you here so early today?"

"Nowadays……"

Li Qi was slightly stunned and turned to look around.

He found himself standing in front of a building. Surrounding him were office workers in formal attire, each holding a cup of coffee in their hands.

Li Qi also has it in his hand.

He looked at Ma Chen, then at himself, and his memory went back to the most distant past, the past before he traveled through time.

At that time, he had just been hired as a full-time employee after his internship at a company. According to his colleagues, his career was on the right track.

At that time, Li Qi thought he could settle down. He learned from others to drink coffee and work in the office every day, but the end result was that he had to do all the dirty and tiring work, repeating the boring work day after day.

Working overtime, being conscripted temporarily, and being suddenly assigned work by the boss became Li Qi's daily routine at that time.

And then one day... Li Qi became Li Qi from another world.

After that, it was endless time travel until now.

Li Qi never thought that one day he would stand in front of that unpleasant company again. He turned his head to look at the company, frowned, and wanted to use his ability to break this unpleasant nightmare.

However, what surprised Li Qi was that he was unable to do this for a while.

At this moment, Li Qi suddenly understood what he was afraid of.

He was afraid of returning to his boring daily life. He was afraid of losing the power he had accumulated for several lifetimes. He was even more afraid of being in a world without any supernatural powers and with no way forward.

It is because I have experienced the taste of extraordinary power and the feeling of using power that I don’t want to lose them.

This is exactly what Li Qi fears.

This is also the 'nightmare' he will face at this moment.
