Light Barrier Novel Chapter 66

According to the data survey from Deep Sea, the optimal sleep duration for human health was around eight hours a day.

If people went without rest or sleep for a long ti, they would quickly experience an inability to concentrate, ntal confusion, followed by heart failure, and eventually death. Typically, the maximum duration ordinary people could withstand without sleep was about three days.

Of course, this data was only applicable to ordinary people. All scientific data couldn’t be applied to transcendents.

Evidently, this lady had already reached the brink of her limits.

After three days without sleep, she no longer even had the ability to say a complete sentence. With Gu Shen’s help, she made it to the clinical recliner and closed her eyes.

But it was just closing her eyes.

Closing her eyes didn’t an she could sleep.

“I… can’t sleep…”

After the lady closed her eyes, her voice trembled as she said with difficulty, “Since three days ago… no matter what… I can’t sleep…”

Who would have thought that the greatest nightmare was not being able to dream?

“Don’t worry. I’m here. Close your eyes and clear your mind.” Gu Shen’s voice was very gentle.

As he squatted beside the recliner and gently comforted her, the space between his eyebrows slowly opened, and a tiny but hot fla blood.

The appearance of the Blazing Fire this ti was markedly different from before.

This fla trembled violently without making a sound.

There’s a residual transcendental aura. Gu Shen narrowed his eyes, his expression becoming solemn.

He tried to release his ntal power through the Blazing Fire.

Hiss, hiss!

The Blazing Fire emitted a faint sound.

Gu Shen felt that his current state was sowhat strange. It was as though he had opened a third eye.

He saw a larger, vaster world.

Or rather… this was a more real world!

When ntal power was projected through the Blazing Fire, everything that ca into view, every object, was analyzed and dissected.

Is this the ‘sight’ unique to ntal-type transcendents?

However, this thod consud ntal power. Gu Shen guessed that as the Blazing Fire grew stronger, the world he could see would beco bigger and bigger, but the amount of ntal power consud would also increase.

At present, this level of consumption was nothing.

Thanks to his continuous cultivation of the Jingzhe Breathing Technique these days, Gu Shen’s ntal power was now very well-developed and robust.

He carefully examined every inch of the lady’s body.

She was an ordinary person, and unlike Sister Xin, she didn’t carry a sealed object. Her current insomnia shouldn’t be due to wearing a sealed object accidentally.

Affected by transcendental power, she can’t sleep. Since I can’t find the reason at the material level, I might be able to find the answer in her dream. Gu Shen pondered for a while and silently ca to a conclusion. I need to hypnotize her, induce her into dreaming, and find the truth in her dream.

In fact, he had decided this from the mont he laid eyes on her.

Gu Shen was already thinking about sothing more important than hypnosis. It wasn’t difficult to treat this kind of insomnia patient. He had already awakened transcendence, and with the assistance of the Blazing Fire, he could let her sleep peacefully in just a second.

But the most important matter… was to find the source.

This was undoubtedly a transcendental incident.

Perhaps this was also part of Cui Zhongcheng’s inspection of him.

While he was deep in thought, the room was silent.

The lady followed his instructions and closed her eyes. But after waiting for a minute, she finally couldn’t help whispering while trembling, “Dr. Gu… I still can’t sleep…”

Gu Shen’s thoughts returned to reality. “You can open your eyes now.”

When the lady heard his voice, despair washed over her face.

She thought that she had found the right person. But it seed like Dr. Gu was also unable to help her.

She slowly opened her eyes. The incandescent lights on the ceiling dazzled her. She hadn’t slept for dozens of hours, and the entire world was spinning.

At this mont, the lady felt that she was experiencing a severe hallucination.

She seed to see… a fire appear between Dr. Gu’s eyebrows.

It was brighter than the incandescent lights.

But it wasn’t blinding. Instead, it was very gentle.

Buzz.

All the noise in the world disappeared, leaving only Gu Shen’s gentle, deep voice. “Sleep peacefully. You will have a good dream.”

The woman on the recliner closed her eyes again, and her exhausted mind finally found sleep. She fell into a deep sleep, accompanied by faint sleep talk.

The young man sat silently by her side, guarding motionlessly like a stone statue.

…

In the endless darkness, Gu Shen opened his eyes.

He stood in utmost darkness, surrounded by howling icy wind blades that seed to want to tear him apart.

I’ve entered the dream. Gu Shen’s expression was calm. This was the first ti he had hypnotized soone, and it was also the first ti he had used the power of the Blazing Fire to enter soone else’s dream.

It was different from the ti with Han Dang.

The Blazing Fire had just condensed its form, and he had yet to unearth an ability like a domain. In other words, Gu Shen had yet to complete the structure of his dream domain. Back at the orphanage, he had been forcibly pulled into Han Dang’s True Words Domain.

This ti, however, he had taken the initiative to ‘imrse’ himself.

The dream of an ordinary person is actually so cold and dark. This should be a terrible nightmare.

Such a terrible nightmare ant that her mind was on the verge of collapse.

If she hadn’t encountered him or a special existence with a hypnotic ability, this lady might have been… dood.

Gu Shen stretched out his five fingers and slowly grabbed. A series of flas tore through the darkness, roaring and dancing. Finally, they turned into a floating lantern that illuminated this dark dream.

The Blazing Fire drove away the frost, snow, and wind blades, creating a circle of light around Gu Shen’s feet.

In the dream, the power of the Blazing Fire is much stronger than I imagined. Gu Shen clenched his fists, feeling the fluctuations of his ntal power. As expected, my transcendental characteristics lean more toward the ntal type.

He exhaled slowly.

The Blazing Fire swirled and spread, and the circle of light gradually expanded.

Gu Shen wanted to spread the light of his fire as much as possible to see this dreamscape more clearly. Expand.

The order was like the command of a god.

The Blazing Fire ford a continuous tide and surged into a sea, completely tearing apart the dark night and burning it.

The woman sleeping on the recliner showed a blood-red flush on her face, and her cold body gradually began to warm.

Amidst the monstrous sea of flas, this nightmare was torn open, revealing its truth.

Gu Shen looked up with a gloomy expression.

Amidst the countless burning flas, he saw dark clouds covering the top of this nightmare world, tinged scarlet by the flas. He could vaguely see a nose, eyes, and fangs.

It was a human face.

Or rather, it was the face of an evil ghost.

The clouds at the top of the nightmare world hung extrely low, blood-red and nacing. The evil ghost face opened its lips, seemingly poised to devour the world together.

If he didn’t guess wrongly, with the arrival of this evil ghost face, this dream would eventually be overwheld and devoured. At that ti, the dream’s host would experience a complete ntal breakdown.

If this was the ntal imprint of a sealed object… then the characteristics of this sealed object were too vicious. How could an ordinary person resist?

Gu Shen took a deep breath.

He recalled the scene that day in the Cage of Ghosts, where he had cut down countless ghosts.

He had slain thousands of evil ghosts.

Having seen true Hell, he no longer feared evil ghosts.

He extended two fingers and pointed them at the enormous ghost face in the sky.

He silently uttered a word in his mind. Cut.

His two fingers slowly swept across.

The dream trembled violently, and the night was as fragile as paper as it was instantly torn into pieces.

In the final mont, a mix of shock, astonishnt, and fear appeared in the eyes of the evil ghost’s face. But in just an instant, even the dark clouds were cut in half.
