The Path to Godhood Begins from the Otherworld

Pale words of comfort are too redundant at this moment.

Luo Shu knew very well that before he successfully solved the trouble with Jinghe Yinghua, it was not an opportunity to pry open Jinghe Ashaji's gradually closed heart.

He silently connected to the World Tree Terminal through his consciousness, and used his identity as the "World Lord" of the Sky Island World to send messages to the women in the City Lord's Mansion.

In particular, he sent a message to Alice, informing her of the arrival of the Jinghe sisters and briefly telling her his plan.

Alice didn't expect that Luo Shu would bring the Jinghe sisters to his world so quickly. After listening to Luo Shu's general plan, she quickly shared a brief information with her sister, Kurumizaka Ruri and the other three people.

So, when Luo Shu entered the City Lord's Mansion and walked towards the guest room, Alice appeared in the corridor with her sister Isis at the right time.

"Princess Alice, I'm sorry for bringing outsiders here without informing you in advance."

The moment Luo Shu saw Alice, he immediately put his hand on his chest and saluted.

"It's okay. We'll just have to make do in this emergency." Alice saw Jinghe Ashaji carrying Jinghe Sakura on her back, and a hint of thought flashed in her eyes. "Miss Jinghe Ashaji, we meet again. What happened to your sister?"

"Mr. Luo said that my sister was hit by a spell cast by the Dream Demon Clan and fell into a coma."

When Jinghe Ashaji saw Alice and Isis really appear in front of her, she had a more intuitive understanding of the relationship between Luo Shu and the elves.

It seems that Mr. Luo's relationship with the elves from another world is much closer than I imagined.

"The Succubus clan's ritual?" Alice exchanged a quick glance with Luo Shu upon hearing this. Then, hearing Luo Shu's telepathic message, she quickly changed the subject, "Then you've definitely made the right decision to come here, Luo Shu. I didn't expect you to even know about the Succubus clan's habits."

"Princess Alice, I didn't mean to hide it."

"Well, since we have a patient, let's not waste time here." Alice smiled. "Mr. Luo Shu, please take Ms. Jinghe and her sister to the second floor for treatment."

"Thank you, Princess, for your understanding." Luo Shu said respectfully after hearing this.

Jinghe Ashaji didn't expect Princess Alice to be so easy to talk to in private. When she heard Luo Shu say that, she quickly followed up with thanks, "Princess Alice, thank you very much."

"That's all right," Alice said, looking at her sister, Isis. "Sister, please take Luo Shu and the two guests to the second floor."

"I understand." Isis nodded silently after hearing this, then looked at Luo Shu, "Mr. Luo Shu, and Ms. Jinghe, please follow me."

"Thank you."

Upon hearing this, Luo Shu glanced at Jinghe Ashaji who was following behind him.

Jinghe Ashaji felt a hint of strength from Luo Shu's eyes.

This dispelled her inner anxiety.

Soon, under the leadership of Isis, Luo Shu successfully brought the Jinghe sisters to the second floor of the City Lord's Mansion, avoiding a head-on collision with the hot girl trio including Jinghe Ashaji and Kurumizaka Ruri.

Although Luo Shu did not think that Jinghe Asaki would have any intersection with the JK beautiful girls studying at Chengshen Academy, he would not forget that Jinghe Asaki's main job was Taimanin, and Taimanin was derived from the ancient profession of Fuso Ninja, and has always been an expert in assassination, intelligence gathering, and reconnaissance.

In order to be on the safe side and prevent Asaki Igawa from realizing that the sky island world she is in is not the different world where Alice is, it is necessary to prevent the three hot girls including Kurumizaka Ruri from meeting Asaki Igawa here.

After all, Luo Shu couldn't explain why the three hot girls were invited by Alice, a princess from another world, to visit the other world, especially at night.

The day and night problem between the Sky Island World and the Inner Derivative World can be explained by the different day and night cycles in the two worlds, but no matter what, it is too unreasonable for the hot girl trio to be invited to visit another world at night.

What's more, Princess Alice is studying at Seishen Academy, and it is very likely that Jinghe Asha knows this information. It is difficult to rule out that she has already learned about the information of the first-year high school students at Seishen Academy.

Don't forget that no matter what, Asaki Igawa is the "strongest Taimanin" in the derivative world, and her intelligence gathering ability should not be underestimated.

Therefore, Luo Shu chose to let Alice temporarily put aside the discussion with Kurumizaka Ruri and others on the establishment of a company and cooperate with him in this play.

On the second floor of the City Lord's Mansion, the innermost guest room away from the stairs.

Following Luo Shu's instructions, Isis brought the Jinghe sisters in.

"Your Highness Isis, please take charge of the alert."

Luo Shu waited until Jinghe Ashaji put Jinghe Yinghua on the bed, then he glanced at Isis and telepathically said, "Be sure to keep a close eye on Jinghe Ashaji and don't let her go downstairs. Also, have Alice inform Liuli and the others to go back there tonight. I don't want her to know about the relationship between me and Liuli and the others for now."

Isis heard Luo Shu's mental message, but did not answer. She just nodded slightly and barely noticeable.

"Mr. Luo, I'll leave the rest to you."

After Jinghe Ashaji put her sister on the bed, she reached out and gently stroked her sister's face, and combed her slightly messy hair.

"Ms. Jinghe, I will do my best."

Luo Shu answered seriously after hearing this, and then he added, "However, for the rest of the treatment, please ask Miss Jinghe and Her Highness Isis to stand guard outside the room."

"I understand." When Jinghe Ashaji heard Luo Shu say this, she did not ask herself why she could not stay in the room. She just reluctantly left the bed and followed Isis out of the guest room silently.

Luo Shu waited until Isis took Jinghe Ashaji out of the guest room, then he looked at the unconscious sleeping face of Jinghe Ashaji on the bed with a leisurely look.

If you look closely, you will find that Sakura Igawa is prettier in person than in her portrait.

However, I remember that in the original work, Sakura Igawa seemed to have a crush on her sister's fiancé. How would she feel if she woke up and heard the news of his death?

At this moment, the consciousness of Sakura Jinghe, wrapped in a dream-eating bubble and arriving at the depths of her dream, looked at the strange threads woven by the dream demon's dream-weaving technique that was gradually spreading near her, and a faint despair grew in her heart.

Could it be that the man just now lied to me?

Chapter 59: Stick it before you dream

Luo Shu didn't know at this time that Jinghe Yinghua had already developed a serious crisis of trust in him.

He waited until Jinghe Ashaji and Isis left the room, then he first wrapped the room with a barrier.

This is to avoid being unable to take care of your own personal safety when diving deep into other people's dreams for the first time.

After all, this was the first time he had negotiated in advance with an individual who was unable to gain control of his own body and entered the other person's dream portal under special conditions.

Although he would basically not encounter any danger in the Sky Island world, he still made preparations in advance for any eventuality out of caution.

Luo Shu doesn't want to reveal the secret that he is carrying the "World Tree Seed".

Mystery will only succumb to higher mysteries. He cannot guarantee that if his consciousness temporarily leaves his body and enters the deep dream of Jinghe Sakura and makes conscious contact with her, it will cause some changes in his body.

If there is a possibility of some changes, setting up a barrier in the room can at least have a hindering effect. Before he completely resolves the nightmare invasion that Jinghe Sakura encountered, there is still a huge difference whether this room has a barrier or not.

Based on this, Luo Shu set up a [Mirage Barrier] in the room that had been upgraded to A-level proficiency, and placed quite a number of psychedelic boundary stones in the barrier.

Psychedelic boundary stone refers to a small barrier pillar engraved with a psychedelic array. The psychedelic effect of a single stone on the five senses may be quite limited, but when hundreds of similar psychedelic boundary stones are stacked on each other and hundreds of psychedelic arrays are intertwined, the psychedelic composite magic array that can be constructed is enough to deal with the invasion of those with strength below the demigod level.

Of course, this is also thanks to the new effect of [Mirage Barrier] when it reaches A level, which can construct a "real and illusory" mirage that is comparable to reality.

Luo Shu mixed the classic element of dungeon maze into the fantasy works based on the memories he had read in his previous life, and used it as a reference for the architecture inside the psychedelic array, making this barrier have the disgusting effect of consuming other people's mental energy.

Simply put, if you want to break the A-level [Mirage Barrier], it is best to break it with force. Trying to outsmart it will fall into Luo Shu's trap, because the maze inside the barrier is not designed as one layer, but as a hundred layers stacked up with countless spirals.

Even if one is a demigod-level warrior, if he doesn't want to break it by force, he has to honestly start from the first floor and climb the tower.

As long as you choose to climb the tower, you have already started wasting time.

Because Luo Shu didn't design too many difficult levels in each level of the maze, he simply extended the overall length of the single-level maze.

It can be said that Luo Shu's design of this barrier is quite counter-intuitive, because the essence of illusion is to make the false look real, to the point where the illusion erodes personal reality, thereby affecting or even destroying the spirit of others.

However, after Luo Shu modified the [Mirage Barrier], the ultimate effect of this barrier became to exhaust other people's mental power.

Moreover, after the barrier itself changed its focus from the strong effect of eroding personal reality and destroying other people's spirits to the weak effect of weakening other people's mental strength, the total time required to clear the 100-story maze tower by using wisdom was fixed at a minimum of more than two hours, assuming that force was not used to overcome cleverness.

It can be said that as long as an unauthorized person breaks into the barrier, two hours will be wasted regardless of whether you want to pass the level or not.

And two hours is enough for Luo Shu to make many responses.

He also didn't think it would take him two hours to resolve the nightmare invasion of Sakura Jinghe in the Sky Island world.

Of course, the decision to set up such a barrier was made taking into consideration that among the women invited to the Sky Island World tonight, there were no demigod-level strongmen like Ursula.

If Ursula was also invited tonight, his first choice would be to send her back to the derivative world.

After all, he thought that he was temporarily unable to confront a demigod-level powerhouse head-on.

Although it is not difficult to kill a demigod-level strongman in the Sky Island World's home turf, you will need to pay a sufficient price to do so.

Although his body is at the demigod level, his mental strength and mystical accumulation have not yet reached the standard, and he is still far from being a true demigod.

Not to mention that after he traveled through time, he had never faced off against a demigod-level powerhouse in the true sense.

Back to the topic, after Luo Shu set up the barrier needed to delay, he walked to Jinghe Sakura's bed, took off her Taimanin attire, and then touched the restraints on his body.

In fact, he didn't need to do this at all, but considering the need to speed up the conquest of the Jinghe sisters, Luo Shu could only take some unavoidable measures.

The main reason was that after his good time with Alice was interrupted today, he had no place to vent his anger, which led to a significant decrease in his self-control.

What's more, Igawa Sakura is also in a relationship at this time. He doesn't know whether Igawa Asaki has told her about the death of her fiancé, Kyosuke. If she didn't tell her, that would be the best. If she did, then the other party's defense would probably be the most vulnerable at this time.

Luo Shu didn't intend to attack slowly and methodically.

He took advantage of the opportunity to help Jinghe Sakura solve the nightmare invasion, concealed the fact that he had physical contact with Jinghe Ashaji, and achieved the goal of conquering Jinghe Sakura in the future.

The appearance of Ursula made Luo Shu realize the threat posed by the demigod-level strongman to himself, and at the moment of conflict with Nomad, he had to become stronger as soon as possible.

Edwin Black, the behind-the-scenes boss of the Taimanin series, is at least demigod-level and may even reach god-level according to the information collected so far.

Luo Shu must make himself stronger as soon as possible, so he must plunder the origin of the world more efficiently and unlock the second form of the world tree seed as soon as possible.

During Shirakawa Miwa's previous strategy process, he wanted to verify whether he could plunder the origin of the world by directly skipping the strategy steps and occupying the other party's body and mind when the target was in an abnormal state. When he found out that he couldn't, he realized that it was not advisable to use various special props to achieve his goals.

Then, all Luo Shu could do was to use his intelligence advantage to create the most favorable conditions for his attack.

In the more than ten years in the evil world, he has figured out a set of action plans on how to use the information gap advantage of the plot prophet to interfere with the fate of the original characters.

In the process of conquering the Jinghe sisters, he planned to flexibly utilize his previous experience to save time.

After Luo Shu removed the restraints on his body, he found a comfortable position to lie down next to the little white sheep Jinghe Yinghua, and then hugged her tightly in his arms.

I have to say, the skin of this pair of ninja girls feels really good.

Luo Shu explored leisurely for a moment, then suppressed his inner anger, concentrated his attention, and gradually infiltrated his mental power into the other party's dream gate deep in his mind.

Soon, he sensed the residual aura of magic left by the dream-eating bubble.

Chapter 60: The Nightmare in a Dilemma

Luo Shu quickly activated the dream-eating spell and created an identical dream-eating bubble outside his consciousness body. Then, following the guidance of the remaining magical breath, he began to invade the door to dreams that was blocked by the dream-weaving spell.

As a result, he soon discovered that the density and quantity of the silk threads woven by the dreamweaving ritual around the outer edge of the dream gate seemed to be much lower than when he escorted Igawa Sakura's consciousness through before.

How is this going?

Could it be that the Dream Demon Clan discovered that changes had occurred in the outside world, causing changes in Igawa Sakura's personal dream world as well, so they began to speed up the pace of eroding her personal dream?

Thinking of this, Luo Shu did not dare to delay any longer and sped up the speed of manipulating the dream-eating bubble to dive into the depths of Jinghe Sakura's personal dream.

Fortunately, because of the magical aura left over from the dream-eating bubble, Luo Shu did not have to replan his route. In addition, he also discovered during the dive that it seemed that the collective consciousness of the nightmare had discovered that Jinghe Sakura's consciousness had returned to the depths of her personal dream, and that the external environment had changed. On the way, he clearly discovered that the gaps in the layered blockade network constructed by the dream-weaving technique had increased.

"Did you find out you can't dream warp, so you're desperate?"

Luo Shu put himself in their shoes and thought about it, then he understood why the Dream Demon Clan made such a decision at this time.

He estimated that the nightmares had discovered a collective consciousness that had invaded Jinghe Sakura's personal dream, and were unable to establish contact with the entity in the gap between the reality and dreams of the derived world, and were even unable to make a dream jump, so they noticed that the world had changed.

The Dream Demon Clan now has no way to retreat, and there are only two choices left for this group of Dream Demon collective consciousnesses that invaded Jinghe Sakura's personal dream.

The first option is to destroy Jinghe Yinghua's consciousness before Luo Shu reaches the depths of the dream and merges with Jinghe Yinghua's consciousness, resulting in mutual destruction and preventing the information about the existence of the nightmare from being leaked.

The second option is to suppress or even control Jinghe Sakura's consciousness before Luo Shu arrives, so as to make Luo Shu hesitate and break the deadlock set by Luo Shu.

After figuring this out, Luo Shu no longer cared about the obstacles of the spiritual threads that stood in his way.

Luo Shu chose to announce his arrival directly.

Since sneaking in secretly has lost its meaning at this time, directly announcing one's arrival can instead put pressure on the already nervous consciousness of the nightmare cluster.

"Okay, I've announced my arrival. How will you respond next?"

Luo Shu has no intention of following the pace of the Dream Demon Clan.

So, he chose to act according to his own ideas.

The consciousness of the nightmare group noticed that a consciousness from the outside world had unknowingly sneaked into the depths of Jinghe Sakura's personal dream and was now close to it, and was immediately caught in a dilemma.

Because, at this time, the consciousness of the nightmare cluster had already sensed the dream-eating bubble existing outside Luo Shu's consciousness, and it emitted exactly the same aura as the dream-eating bubble wrapped around the consciousness of Jinghe Sakura, whom they were besieging.

This made the consciousness of the Dream Demon Cluster realize that there was a being that mastered the dream-eating technique of the long-extinct dream-eating tapir clan in the demon world, and this became the key for Jinghe Sakura to break the deadlock.

At this time, the Dream Demon Cluster Consciousness discovered that their previous assumption that Jinghe Sakura had found external aid had completely become a reality. In addition, they had accumulated a lot of uneasy emotions because the cluster consciousness that invaded Jinghe Sakura had severed their connections with many of the original individuals, which led to more noise within the Dream Demon Cluster Consciousness, which should have been united.

Luo Shu's relentless pressure further amplified the noise.

Although the Nightmare Clan masters the dream-interaction and group combat method of invading dreams, the Nightmare Clan is not a social structure with a single command structure like the Zerg.

In the social structure of the Nightmare Clan, there is no absolute core unit like the Zerg Queen who can make decisions with a single word.
