The Eternal Calamity of the Heaven-shading

Chapter 123 The Eternal Dream
The Dragon Girl woke up suddenly, and the first thing she saw was Chen Wu lying on the stone bed, still motionless.

The spiritual world under the moonlight disappeared, and Weiyangxian also disappeared. If it were not for the fragments of the Tao that filled his body, everything he had just experienced would have seemed like a dream.

"You seem to have changed a little. What happened just now?"

A voice came from deep in the mind. It was the god of Wanlongling, who sensed the dragon girl's emotional fluctuations.

The dragon girl thought about it for a few seconds before replying, "Nothing, I just went to meet someone."

"Met someone?"

The god of Wanlongling was stunned, as if he had seen a ghost.

From beginning to end, no abnormalities were found in this ancient imperial weapon, which shows the strength of Weiyangxian.

Wan Longling wanted to ask something, but suddenly shut his mouth.

The Dragon Girl turned her head and saw Shen Yan walking towards her from a corner of the hall with a curious look on his face.

"How do you feel after meeting Sister Weiyangxian?"

"It's okay. I know some secrets."

The dragon girl's voice was very calm, as if she was talking about something very ordinary.

Hearing this, Shenyan's eyes rolled around, with a cunning light in them.

"It's rare for Sister Weiyangxian to show up on her own initiative. It looks like you two are getting along very happily."

"Ah."

The dragon girl nodded lightly. She wanted to end the topic, but suddenly found that the other party's expression changed. The corners of his lips raised and shallow dimples appeared on his cheeks.

"Master, are you awake?" Shen Yan was ecstatic.

At this moment, the dragon girl's delicate body trembled and she quickly turned around to look.

It turned out that Chen Wu opened his eyes at some point and then sat up from the chaotic stone bed.

Seeing this, the Dragon Girl stretched out her hand and was about to say something, but another person was faster than her and pounced over.

"Master!"

Shen Yan hugged Chen Wu tightly and cried with joy.

The Burning Demonic Lotus also flew over and circled in the air. In a hidden corner, a hazy figure was looming...

But strangely, Chen Wu did not respond at all. His eyes were confused. After glancing around, he tore through the void and disappeared from the hall.

This scene shocked Shen Yan and Long Nu, and they immediately chased after him without thinking, followed closely by the two supreme imperial weapons, the Ten Thousand Dragon Bell and the Burning World Demon Lotus.

After years of silence, the Burning Emperor, who looked down upon the world, finally left the Heaven Burial Island.

However, this time there was no overwhelming imperial aura, and no one was alarmed.

Chen Wu arrived in the Eastern Wilderness without any summons, and then quietly transformed into an ordinary person. His earth-shaking cultivation seemed to have disappeared.

He came to Wei, a small secular country located in the southern part of the Eastern Wilderness.

It is more than 5,000 miles long from north to south and more than 7,000 miles from east to west. Such a territory is just a drop in the ocean in the Eastern Wilderness, and there are endless countries similar to it.

If we have to say something special about it, it is that Wei State is a rare country dominated by humans, with a large number of mortals living here.

In the ancient times, the Big Dipper was respected by the royal family and all races lived in harmony.

The human race is in a weak position. Although there are two human emperors, Taiyin and Taiyang, they are very old and their Taoist lineage remains on Ziwei Star, so their influence on the Beidou star field is limited.

As for the current Burning Emperor, he is not a human either, but a transformed red lotus.

……

In this way, Chen Wu entered the capital of Wei State. The city was bustling with traffic, pedestrians were shoulder to shoulder, and the sounds of hawking were endless. It was very prosperous and lively.

At the same time, two figures stood in the sky, looking down.

"Master, what happened? You suddenly plunged into the mundane world."

Shen Yan was a little puzzled. She had already scanned the area and found that the strongest cultivator in Wei State was only at the second level of the Immortal Realm. The same was true for the surrounding countries. They didn't even need a saint. Any immortal at the third level of the Dao Zhan Realm could easily defeat them. She really couldn't understand why Chen Wu came here.

Beside him, the dragon girl's beautiful eyes were also filled with doubts, and she couldn't help but guess: "Is this also a special kind of practice?"

Above the two people's heads, the god of the Burning Demonic Lotus spoke: "Master has blocked my call."

"Let's go, let's go down and take a look." Shen Yan made a decision. The Dragon Girl did not hesitate and flew down immediately after.

"Delicious meat buns, come and have a taste!"

"Hey, candied haws. If it doesn't taste good, I won't charge you for it!"

Amid the shouts of vendors around, Shen Yan and Long Nu quietly followed Chen Wu.

……

A quarter of an hour later,
"What should I do? Master has not responded. Do I really have to experience the life of an ordinary person?"

Shen Yan looked frustrated. The two tried to communicate with Chen Wu and found that he had lost his memory of being the Ancient Emperor. It seemed that he was just an ordinary person of unknown origin.

They didn't dare to interrupt him and could only watch Chen Wu walking in the mundane world in silence.

"Let's ask Sister Weiyangxian. She might know something."

Shen Yan muttered to himself, and then decisively used his magical powers to contact Wei Yang Xian who was far away on the Burial Heaven Island.

"What? You said Chen Wu became a mortal and entered the secular world?"

After hearing the detailed description, Wei Yangxian was somewhat surprised.

"Ah."

Shen Yan nodded helplessly. He thought Chen Wu had woken up, but who knew this would happen again.

"That's not right. He has just achieved enlightenment not long ago. Why would he start that step now?"

Wei Yangxian fell into silence and began to think and study.

After a long time, she spoke again, "Don't worry about this for now. He should have received his divine consciousness and started practicing the Great Dream of Eternity. It will be difficult to wake him up with external forces."

"Excuse me, Sister Weiyang, what kind of practice is this?" Shenyan and Longnv asked after hesitating for a moment.

Hearing this, Wei Yangxian was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "Oh, I forgot, you two have too little experience, it's normal that you don't know each other. This is a supreme method, in deep sleep, you will dream for eternity, and you will experience thousands of lives in the dream, cleanse your mind and refine the Tao in the long river of time, and transcend the world of mortals."

Wei Yangxian explained this method, which is only a theoretical way and extremely dangerous. After all, no one dares to live in a dream all his life. It is too dangerous and no master of the imperial way is willing to try it.

"In the mythological era, there was a celestial master who created a method called Heart Transformation into the Red Dust. It emphasizes going from the real to the imaginary, from the present to the past, and transforming the fruit of the Tao into a dream."

"And now Chen Wu has sublimated the eternal dream, returning from the virtual to the real, from the ancient times to the present. He has embarked on a completely opposite path. He wants to truly experience life and walk through the ages." Weiyang Xiandao.

Of course, what she didn't say was that upon closer inspection, this was actually the same person.

"So what you mean is that the future Master will remain like this until the end of this life?" Shen Yan was surprised.

Not only her, but the Dragon Girl was also unwilling to believe it.

He had just been certified as an emperor and should have ruled the nine heavens and ten earths, but instead he ran away to the mortal world and hid his identity. How could this be possible?

Wei Yangxian nodded slightly, and said unconfidently: "Actually, I also hope that I am wrong. After all, the Great Dream of Eternity is a method of reverse transformation. Logically speaking, he should not try it at this time."

"So we can only follow behind and watch like this?"

Shen Yan and Long Nu looked at each other, but Wei Yang Xian was helpless.

They then immediately looked at the Burning Demonic Lotus floating above their heads. This weapon was refined from the Burning Emperor's old body after he attained enlightenment. Perhaps it could have a certain impact on the Burning Emperor.

“No, there’s no point in looking at me. I don’t have that much power.” The god of the Burning World Demonic Lotus quickly denied.

Now the two of them really had no choice but to follow Chen Wu and observe silently.

A year later, Chen Wu joined a caravan and began to travel around Wei and neighboring countries to do business.

Spring passes and autumn comes, traveling from south to north.

Gradually, Chen Wu began to climb up with his clever mind and extraordinary learning ability, and was fortunately appreciated by the caravan leader, who even intended to marry his daughter to him.

But to everyone's surprise, Chen Wu inexplicably refused, which directly offended the leader of the caravan. Coupled with the alienation and frame-up of some villains, Chen Wu was gradually neglected.

Finally, during a routine journey to purchase goods, the caravan encountered bandits. All the people, including Chen Wu, were killed, and both the people and the goods were lost.

In this life, Chen Wu only lived for 30 years.

When the bandits hurriedly left, Chen Wu, whose body was pierced by swords, suddenly stood up, and his injuries recovered. Then he stepped into the void and left the State of Wei.
