After the destruction of the Immortal Realm, I took in the fallen fairy.

Lin Heng, who lived during the Demon Calendar era, had never felt such a rich spiritual energy surrounding him.

Even when the Spirit Restoration Array was activated, the spiritual energy in the Cloud Oasis was far less abundant than it is now.

Mu Tinglan just said that this Source Water Dreamland is like the Immortal Realm. This does not refer to the surrounding environment, but to the spiritual energy of this dream space, which is just like that of the Immortal Ancient Era, the golden age of cultivation!

But speaking of the environment...

"It seems to be on a small island?"

Lin Heng looked around.

All around, there was an endless ocean.

"Huh? Master!"

Suddenly, Mu Tinglan looked at Lin Heng with some surprise.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Heng looked at Mu Tinglan with some confusion.

"Master, please feel it!"

Mu Tinglan said excitedly to Lin Heng.

Lin Heng looked at her suspiciously. He had only ever seen her with this expression before, when she was enjoying her water spirit root...

However, once Lin Heng calmed down and listened carefully, he understood why Mu Tinglan was excited.

Here, Lin Heng sensed the endless rules of the source water.

However, there are two forces of rule that do not originate from this source water dream itself.

One of the source water rules originated from Mu Tinglan, who herself was the Goddess of the Nine Seas.

And the other source of the rules... actually came from his own spiritual root?!

Even without using the Goddess's Delusional Array, his own Chaotic Spiritual Root was activated in this Source Water Dream Realm.

"Master, please don't accidentally turn into a little Xuanwu!"

Mu Tinglan chuckled and teased, "But it's alright if I've changed. Here, my spiritual energy seems to have been soaked in the Immortal Spring, and I can also become like my master... um?"

She was only halfway through her sentence when her relaxed expression suddenly turned serious.

Lin Heng, who was already sensing the power of the rules, frowned: "It seems that something has come from the sea."

Almost simultaneously, their gazes fell on the same spot on the beach.

Wow!

As a wave surged, crabs adorned with black, magical patterns emerged from the water.

Their bodies were the size of a normal person, and their dense, seemingly endless numbers.

At this moment, Mu Tinglan casually said, "Master, these are low-level demonic creatures called Demon Armor Crabs. Don't be fooled by their sharp pincers; their shells are actually their real weapons. Once touched, they will devour your spiritual energy."

Monsters appeared in my dream?!

However, Lin Heng did not panic.

Since Mu Tinglan said that, it means...

"Although their magical armor is extremely threatening, with me here, they can't touch their master in the slightest."

Mu Tinglan stepped forward, without even taking out the Mermaid Tear Tide-Summoning Flute from her chest, and directly circulated her spiritual power to form the immortal technique at her fingertips.

Bang bang bang!

Bubbles were released toward the armored crab.

Almost instantly upon contact, the bubbles exploded, easily annihilating the armored crabs.

In just a moment, the dozen or so demonic crabs had all turned into wisps of demonic energy and disappeared into the Source Water Dream.

Mu Tinglan said with a smile, "These demonic crabs are at most equivalent to the Qi Refining Realm."

"Qi Refining Realm?"

Lin Heng raised an eyebrow and then said, "Wait a minute."

"Oh? Could it be that you, Master, are also here?"

Mu Tinglan understood almost instantly and immediately dispelled the immortal technique that had already been formed.

Lin Heng recalled how Mu Tinglan circulated spiritual energy when she created the immortal technique, then aimed at a demonic crab and waved his hand.

Bang!

The same bubbles also defeated the armored crab.

"Master, you... you can create immortal techniques so quickly?"

Mu Tinglan looked at Lin Heng in surprise.

Lin Heng smiled and said, "It was just the application of some rule-based power."

"Using the power of rules... Yes!"

Mu Tinglan also started to try it herself.

really!

Driven by the rules of the source water, his immortal techniques were indeed much faster than before.

However, compared to Lin Heng, he was still a step behind.

"Master truly lives up to his reputation as a master array builder."

Mu Tinglan said with emotion.

As a formation master, her understanding of the power of rules is naturally much deeper than hers.

"Let me try a few more magic spells," Lin Heng said to her.

"Um!"

Mu Tinglan nodded and immediately created another immortal technique, gathering spiritual power into a beam of blue light that pierced through the demonic shell of a demonic crab.

Lin Heng followed suit.

Because of his profound understanding of the power of rules, he only needs to see Mu Tinglan use it once to be able to replicate it.

Although he was only facing low-level armored crabs, Lin Heng felt the exhilarating thrill of combat as he killed them time and time again!

That's more like it!

In the world of cultivation, if I can't even use immortal techniques, then what was the point of my transmigration?

Seeing Lin Heng's undiminished enthusiasm, Mu Tinglan knew that her master was enjoying the battle with the Demon Armor Crab.

If I were to intervene, it would only spoil the master's enjoyment.

So after demonstrating several immortal techniques suitable for Foundation Establishment cultivators, she simply stood by and cheered Lin Heng on with a beaming smile: "Master is amazing!"

"..."

Everything was perfect before, and now there's only one Magmortar Crab left.

However, Mu Tinglan's sudden remark caused Lin Heng's magic to go astray.

Fortunately, Mu Tinglan managed to adjust the rules of the source water in time and correct the distorted immortal technique Lin Heng had used.

The bubble that was clearly behind the armored crab deliberately veered off course before bursting on its body...

"My owner is still great!"

"..."

Lin Heng was speechless.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Mu Tinglan beside him paused for a moment.

Coming to her senses, she opened her eyes wide and excitedly said to Lin Heng, "Master, my depleted spiritual root... seems to have really recovered! And it's not the temporary recovery I experienced when I soaked in the Immortal Spirit Spring with you, but a real recovery! Although it seems to have only recovered somewhat..."

"Spiritual root recovery?"

Lin Heng raised an eyebrow.

However, he was not surprised.

After all, the very purpose of this Source Water Dream is to restore the strength of one's immortal servants.

At the same time, a notification also came from Lin Heng's Immortal Slave Manual:

[Because the Slave Master and the Nine Nether Goddess jointly repelled the Demon Armor Crab, the Nine Nether Goddess's strength has recovered to the Foundation Establishment Realm. The Slave Master's realm has increased to the late Foundation Establishment stage.]

Should we challenge the next wave of demonic energy?

Therefore, after defeating these demonic crabs, even if Mu Tinglan doesn't use the Immortal Spirit Spring or the Spirit Restoration Array to recover his strength, he will still possess the strength of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Moreover, in the Dream of the Source Water, not only can Mu Tinglan's strength be restored, but her realm can also be improved.

If I'm not mistaken, if I continue to fight the next wave of demonic tide, Mu Tinglan's cultivation level should be able to recover to an even higher level.

Honestly, this is a bit of cheating.

After all, in this Source Water Dream, Mu Tinglan's strength had reached the Enlightenment Realm!

But since there's such a bug, why not keep trying?

So Lin Heng chose "Yes" without even thinking!
