Mishan found an oak tree and placed his hand on it; his vision imdiately began to blur.
He saw the Druid.
The tall figure passed swiftly through the woods, closing in on him rapidly. Then a faint light enveloped his body as the Druid’s deep voice rang out: "Do not speak!"
"Listen to ."
"You are in great danger now!"
"Your bodies are still near the grove by the stream, but your souls have already left by dozens of kiloters, trapped in the real dream."
"Now."
"Quickly return to the caravan, wake the others, and have them retrace their steps back to the starting point."
"The Forest Sages will attempt to pull you back from the real dream!"
What?
Soul?
Mishan’s consciousness wavered for a mont, realizing that everything around him beca faint and indistinct. The forest, which had seed so real just a second ago, had now turned illusory.
The figures of his companions also vanished.
"Am I dreaming?"
"No! The caravan had been traveling for two days."
"Have we been dreaming all along this journey?"
After the Druid conveyed everything, he swiftly set up an array on the spot, summoning a bird, to which he said in a deep voice, "A caravan stuck in the real dream has been found."
"Notify the Great Druids imdiately!"
"The Divine Abomination of the Dream Plane may have awakened!"
"The towns around the Shadow Forest have been eroded by the Dream Plane, with many people falling into a deep real dream."
Everything around gradually turned into grey and white images.
When Mishan’s consciousness recovered, he imdiately headed to where the caravan rested, grabbing his companion in front of him and saying in a deep voice, "Sothing’s wrong. Go back the sa way we ca."
"Otherwise, everyone will die here!"
As he spoke, Mishan looked up, and his body trembled instantly at the sight of the others in the caravan, each sleeping figure wrapped in a cocoon-like substance. Even his companion appeared confused, with grey mist-like threads entwining him and completely enveloping him.
It was then that Mishan realized his hand had already passed through the other’s body.
He seed to have turned into a ghost, invisible to everyone.
Dream realm awaken.
He beca a spiritual body.
Damn it!
Mishan circled the resting camp of the caravan, seeing faces of people struggling with fatigue and pain. After a mont of struggling, he imdiately turned and dashed back the way he ca.
Everything around was gradually changing.
The dense forest increasingly felt unreal, the ghostly shadows seeming alive, and the reflections of the trees opened wide, bloodthirsty mouths as if they would swallow him the next mont.
At that mont, a howl of a wolf erupted.
Mishan saw a giant wolf running wildly, its shimring silver fur appearing to faintly glow, its size akin to a young bull. Upon discovering him, it imdiately guided him with its howl as it ran.
In legend, Del Region had Animal Lords, which were wise spirits of nature.
He didn’t know how long he had been running.
Everything along the way was changing, from real to void, void to real, and he seed lost in layers upon layers of space. If not for the giant wolf guiding him, he might have gone mad long ago.
Finally, he saw a ray of light.
Mi Shan saw the campfire, saw the rchant caravan’s wagons, saw the figures lying flat in the camp, and the scattered Druids around.
"There’s a spiritual body over there."
A Druid’s eyes locked directly onto Mi Shan’s position, and in the next mont his consciousness blurred. When he opened his eyes again, he was already lying on the carpet beside the wagon.
Under the gray sky, several eagles’ silhouettes flew by.
All around was already set up with a barrier of protection from evil, the Forest Sages supported a shelter with the stones of the Holy Sanctuary, while thousands of people lay inside the camp, all in a deep slumber.
"Has the support not arrived yet?" A Druid’s voice sounded.
In the sky, an owl descended, speaking in a human-like voice: "It should be arriving soon."
"There are disturbances on Mist Island as well."
"The aura of death is restless, maybe other divine abominations and ancient evils have awakened."
Who knows how much ti has passed.
It seed as if a sun appeared in the sky, the blinding light enveloped the earth, evaporating every shadow of void. In that dazzling brilliance, Mi Shan suddenly heard painful groans beside him as the people lying on the ground gradually awoke from their sleep.
anwhile.
On Mist Island in the Material Plane, a solitary island overseas, in just half a day’s ti, the ground was covered in countless dark purple flesh moss, these moss-like flesh substances spread ceaselessly, absorbing nearby nutrients, then differentiating into flesh pipelines. In the subtle tremors of the ground, fleshy mound-like organs rose up, like little hills of flesh, about thirty ters high, integrated into the flesh pipelines on the ground.
Thump, thump, thump!
Resonant sounds akin to heartbeats echoed.
From the deepest underground, waves of death energy converged here, those incubated fleshy hill organs gradually seed to beco inflated wombs, foul pus swelling them like balloons, faintly revealing embryos forming, growing continually in death, ultimately becoming giant infant corpses like mummies.
This region’s Inner Earth World.
A dead embryo with a diater of about five kiloters was gradually dissipating, as if being disassembled, countless nutrients transported along the Pillars of Flesh and Blood to the surface, where the dissolved flesh infiltrates the ground, differentiating into dozens of incubation organs, like lumps on the earth’s surface, relentlessly birthing mummy-like divine abomination dead embryos.
—— Incomplete Shrinker [Divine Abomination] [Ancient Dead Embryo] (Challenge Level 22)?!
The orphan of Mist Island emitted cries of distress.
Since humans reclaid the power of the Law of Death, all ancient embryos related to the death concept nurtured deep in the earth have been gradually turning into dead embryos. Now, the world’s Law of Death is becoming more solid, even incubating as dead embryos is no longer possible. Their divine power continually splits, transforming into dozens of prematurely birthed incomplete divine abominations.
These premature divine abominations emit cries of sorrow, endless gray mist surging, as if calling for the mother that gave birth to them.
Ancient Battlefield Ruins, Atlantis.
Upon the ruins of an ancient grand city stretching across vast distances, a gorge spanning tens of kiloters constantly emitted foul pus and blood, filling the surrounding gorge like a river. The pus and blood of the earth erupted in all directions as violent earthquakes occurred, with a blood-like umbilical cord organization over hundreds of ters long breaking through the soil. It danced frenziedly like a poisonous snake, striking everything nearby, venting its fury and agony.
Boom!
The earth shattered.
Endless magma spurted out, and then a giant hand erged — a dry giant’s hand covered in magma, with veins visible beneath its ash-brown skin. As the gorge opened up a crack extending thousands of ters, a shriveled head protruded, possessing only a lone eye on its forehead, devoid of facial features, like a faceless giant. The massive placenta dragged from underground as this faceless giant with a single eye slowly rose, its height approaching a thousand ters like a mountain, emitting sorrowful cries towards the empty earth.
—— Premature Geworlo [Ancient Embryo] (Challenge Level 35 ).
The world’s laws can no longer accommodate it.
Soone has stolen the laws intended to nurture it, never to allow it to grow into a complete form. Driven by survival instinct, it chose to be born prematurely, with endless pus and blood spreading along the earth’s veins. This nearly thousand-ter-high faceless giant dragged its yet undeveloped body, devouring the placenta, and crawled continuously across the ground. Its lower half was like an enormous slug, while its upper half was a shriveled giant’s body; its lower slug-like form was swollen as a mountain, crawling towards a distant location, with waves of pus and blood erging from the incomplete body.
A trail of blood sars stretching hundreds of kiloters extended towards the horizon, relying on the sensing of Law Origin. This prematurely born ancient embryo approached the existence that stole its law power.
In an extrely short amount of ti.
Throughout Terra Planet’s Inner Earth World, those ancient embryos unable to further condense the laws began to erge prematurely, while the still intact ancient embryos also began accelerating their incubation in the Inner Earth World. They extracted nutrients from those ’abandoned embryos’ and even competed for nutrients among each other, hastening their own birth.
The world’s Root Source Law is in an everlasting turmoil, as two forces vie for authority over the laws.
The colossal womb of the Inner Earth World seed to squirm, sending one nurtured ancient embryo after another prematurely to the Real Plane.
The mother of the past is expelling embryos from her body.
