Boom!!!
The colossal tal fortress high above erupted in a blazing inferno, plumting like a burning teor shower toward the city below.
Deafening explosions echoed endlessly, sending towering plus of smoke and dust billowing across the landscape. Stone buildings crumbled into rubble, leaving a trail of craters nearly a kiloter deep.
"Master!"
The Silver Armor Warriors of the Ancient Taiduo Empire finally snapped out of their stupor. Sha and bitter resentnt burned in their eyes as they heard Chen Feng's words. How could they possibly abandon Lord Spirit King and flee alone?
They opened their mouths to protest, but—
Roar!!!
From within the dense black mist, a pair of crimson eyes, each several tens of ters wide, suddenly materialized. Their vertical pupils glead with a faint, dark-amber light, freezing the very space around them.
The Heaven's Fall, poised for a Warp Jump, shuddered violently. The barrier surrounding it rippled intensely, threatening to shatter under the overwhelming pressure.
The Silver Armor Warriors' faces flushed crimson, their bodies trembling as veins bulged on their necks. They felt an invisible force gripping and crushing them from all sides, threatening to burst their bodies from within.
At that critical mont—
Thump!!
A thunderous heartbeat reverberated across the world, causing the oppressive black mist shrouding the sky to dissipate slightly.
Everyone was stunned and looked up.
A massive teor streaked across the sky, resembling a blazing fist.
The crimson-gold Divine Fla burned fiercely, causing the surrounding black mist to hiss and rapidly evaporate as if encountering its natural predator.
A fleeting, straight path cleaved through the pitch-black sky, revealing a sliver of azure heavens and white clouds.
Legion Warriors across the battlefield paused to gaze upward, so with wistful rembrance, others with hopeful anticipation, as they witnessed this montary radiance.
Then:
"Falling Sun: Polaris!"
Boom!
The cot-like fist struck the colossal creature within the mist, revealing a massive, serpentine dragon coiling through the air, its back adorned with two imnse wings.
A devastating shockwave erupted, shattering Black Tide Creatures into scattered remains.
A torrential rain of blood splattered down, clearing the ark's path of all obstructions.
Buzz!
Blue light flared explosively, its powerful repulsive force pushing away all surrounding entanglents.
Subtle spatial distortions rippled as the ark's prow appeared to rge with the shifting currents of space, preparing for a Warp Jump into another dinsional world.
The silver-armored Legion Warriors snapped back to attention, their eyes drawn to the towering youth clad in golden armor.
Chen Feng's blood-red cape billowed fiercely as he leapt into the air without hesitation.
Whoosh!
His figure soared upward, trailing a golden light that pierced the heavens, as if destined to plunge into the boundless sky.
Then, the Platinum Giant surged from the ground, its massive back arched to catch Chen Feng mid-air.
Man and golem ascended together into the mist-shrouded heights, just as a colossal, winged serpent, its hideous head easily a hundred ters wide, erged from the dark fog.
The serpent's dark amber vertical pupils reflected the impending doom of the world below, where Black Tide Creatures rampaged through the land.
Yet, even in this final hour of Heavenfall, as civilizations crumbled and fell,
Buzz!
The ground trembled as terrifying sandstorms erupted, spiraling a hundred ters into the air.
The majestic, silent Colossus braced itself against the Heavenly Falling Sun Stance, while the Azure-Gold Unihorn figure, his eyes burning with crimson slaughter, glared into the serpent's icy gaze.
In that instant,
The two angels collided, unleashing a cataclysmic force.
Boom!
Buzz!
Chen Feng's mind reeled, his eyes flickering with disorientation.
"A Lower Angel..."
The final strike within the Dream Realm had been far more devastating than Chen Feng had anticipated. The colossal serpent had surpassed the level of an Envoy Rank being.
As the ark initiated its Warp Jump, Chen Feng simultaneously returned to the present reality.
"Heaven's Fall..."
"Could Heaven's Fall Mountain be the wreckage of the Heaven's Fall warship, which crashed here after a Warp Jump?"
Chen Feng's eyes flickered, struggling to make sense of the situation.
Was what I just witnessed truly a dream?
Uncertainty gnawed at him. He even wondered if his actions had failed to avert the civilization's annihilation.
Perhaps it was rely a mory recorded within the Dream Realm?
Then there were the discrepancies in the visions he had experienced.
So of the colossal constructs differed significantly from the modern technology exhibited by the Ancient Taiduo Civilization. He hadn't seen any cha Warriors or other cybernetically enhanced warriors.
And what about the mbers of the Human Legion?
Third-eyed Ancient Taiduo People were exceedingly rare, yet the majority of the Legion Warriors had normal human faces.
All these details contradicted his previous experiences in the Cloud Dream Forest.
"Perhaps the Ancient Taiduo Empire doesn't fully represent the Ancient Taiduo Civilization."
A series of speculations swirled in Chen Feng's mind, leaving him shrouded in doubt.
Until finally...
Phew!
Exhaling a long breath of stale air, he suppressed his wandering thoughts and focused on the golden fragnt in his hand, shaped like a rhomboid crystal.
[Fragnt of Divinity - Collect?]
The system prompt had already appeared, confirming that the Dream Incursion hadn't been in vain.
He couldn't shake the peculiar feeling that this might have been a trial orchestrated by the Fragnt of Divinity itself.
Shaking his head gently, Chen Feng dismissed the strange notion and made his decision.
"Collect."
Buzz!
In an instant, the golden fragnt shattered into shimring particles of light. Like intangible energy, they dissolved into his palm.
At the sa mont, a notification appeared:
[Fragnt of Divinity (Quantity): 1]
Chen Feng's gaze flickered.
He wondered if this single fragnt could awaken a Lower Angel within the Heroic Spirit Hall.
Though the possibility seed slim, he still felt compelled to try.
Then, as if sensing the fragnt's disappearance...
Buzz!!
The walls of the spacious chamber pulsed with white light. Linear streaks of energy shot downward, converging beneath his feet.
The white ring reford, and Chen Feng couldn't help but notice its striking resemblance to the Inverted Pyramid he had previously explored.
But then...
In the next instant...
Whoosh!
A beam of white light surged upward, engulfing him completely.
The familiar sensation of weightlessness and distorted ti returned. He cautiously scanned his surroundings. This update is available on novel⦿fire
But as soon as he recognized his environnt, his gaze sharpened, and a violent storm erupted in his mind. The carefully constructed theories he had painstakingly pieced together shattered like glass.
The reason?
The azure sky of the Serpent Spirit World and the verdant Greenfield Mountains of Heaven's Fall Mountain had vanished. In their place stood a familiar wooden pavilion, a courtyard pond rippling in the breeze, and golden carp gliding through the water.
"The Dharma Transmission Assembly starts in an hour. So many people have arrived at the Mountain Gate!"
"It's too crowded. Several Grandmasters have shown up, and even the Sect Leader is struggling to manage them."
"Thank goodness Senior Yang is here. Still, these guests are quite enthusiastic."
"Senior Brother still hasn't erged from seclusion. Senior Brother Cao, should we go remind him?"
The hushed conversations of Fla Tiger Sect disciples continued to murmur. Cao Tong, clad in loose robes, paced back and forth in front of the courtyard, seemingly hesitant to interrupt Chen Feng's secluded cultivation.
Flying cars streaked through the sky, landing one after another. They carried directors from major corporations based in Nanjiang, Feng Province, and even other cities. Councilors also arrived in person, transforming the sect's back mountain into a bustling hub as representatives from various Martial Arts Sects began to appear.
In an instant, Chen Feng's perception snapped back.
Waves of emotion churned within him. He had never expected to return so abruptly. Previously, his Dream Incursions had always ended when he deliberately stopped activating the Dark Dream Mark or when the Evil God Power was completely exhausted.
But now, had the transmission power of Heaven's Fall Mountain's suspected Star Ring Device actually sent him straight back to Earth?
Almost doubting his own senses, Chen Feng imdiately connected to his shared vision, accessing the feed from Stone Statue No. 2.
Olon, Molly, and the others were still circling Heaven's Fall Mountain, even attempting to enter the mountain's summit passage to explore, fearing for Chen Feng's safety. Yet, an invisible force seed to block their way, preventing them from succeeding.
"So... I'm really back?"
His expression grave, Chen Feng slowly rose to his feet and gazed out the window of his courtyard house.
More and more Flying Cars arrived, their white contrails lingering in the azure sky.
A gentle breeze rustled the pond, its waters murmuring softly.
The air carried the delicate fragrance of prepared fruits. Chen Feng reached out and touched the wooden table inside the house, finding it slightly cool to the touch.
Everything felt undeniably real. He even attempted a World Imprint, glimpsing the Martial Dao Heavenly Ladder reflected in his mind.
Finding nothing amiss, he was certain he had truly returned to Earth.
Even the Serpent Spirit Power displayed on his interface remained frozen, no longer being consud.
Buzz!
In the next instant, the Black Dream Space resurfaced in his consciousness.
Chen Feng actively tried to retrieve the silver short blade imbued with the Power of the Holy Sword.
But...
"It failed."
His gaze sharpened, all lingering hope vanishing.
Chen Feng was now absolutely certain he had returned to Earth, to the real world.
Only in this reality could items from the Secret Realm be unusable.
His expression turned grave as a startling thought struck him.
"A Secret Realm World accessible through a second Dream Incursion."
"Could it truly be a living, vibrant world parallel to Earth, existing independently and undeniably real?"
Previously, he had hesitated to fully believe this, fearing it might rely be a mory recorded by the Dream Realm's power.
Looking back, it all seed undeniably real. Otherwise, how could that device, suspected to be a Star Ring, have transported him directly back to Earth?
Moreover, there had long been signs blurring the lines between the Dream Realm and reality. In every Secret Realm World he visited, his talents like Heart of Glory and Azure Armor thrived, growing stronger. Yet Qinggang City remained conspicuously quiet, showing no signs of activity.
The puzzle pieces fell into place. Chen Feng stood silently, his expression complex.
This revelation wasn't entirely unwelco, but its suddenness and profound implications overwheld him. If Earth coexisted with these Secret Realm Worlds, did that an other humans could also enter the Serpent Spirit Continent or the World of the Dead?
And what about Ancient Taiduo? Had this advanced civilization, capable of interstellar travel, truly vanished? What was its connection to the Ancient Taiduo Empire?
Whoosh!
As these questions swirled in his mind, Chen Feng exhaled a long, turbid breath. His formidable spiritual will transford into disciplined instinct, restoring his composure and focus.
The answers to these mysteries would undoubtedly erge in ti. Moreover, this new discovery wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The true terror of the Black Tide Disaster lay in its relentless, unending nature.
Uniting with other worlds might significantly improve our chances of survival. After all, the World of the Dead is ho to True Gods who once repelled an Evil God. Even though they are currently dormant, that doesn't an they won't find other ways to resist in the future.
Suddenly, Chen Feng's mind cleared. He regained complete composure, free from further turmoil or apprehension. He turned his gaze toward the Mountain Gate.
Disciples bustled about their tasks, while golden carp leaped from the courtyard pond, sending ripples across the water. Cao Tong, who had been pacing indecisively, finally stopped. Under the watchful eyes of several disciples, who regarded him with a mix of concern and admiration, he gritted his teeth and strode forward.
Tap, tap!
His steady footsteps echoed as he reached the wooden door, raising his hand to knock.
But just then—
Creak!
The wooden door swung open, and Chen Feng erged slowly, clad in a black robe embroidered with crimson patterns. A faint crimson fla flickered deep within his piercing eyes, montarily startling Cao Tong, who had been about to knock.
"Let's go," Chen Feng said in a low voice, brushing past him as he strode forward.
While the disciples waiting outside remained montarily stunned, Chen Feng had already crossed the corridor and reached the courtyard gate.
An aircraft descended with a humming sound, its buzzing drowned out by an invisible barrier that deflected the gentle breeze.
Walking steadily, Chen Feng turned his gaze toward the rear mountain. No matter how secret the Dream Realm might be, it was rely the future.
But now—
The heroes of the world had gathered.
He, the foremost Martial Artist who would proclaim the Dharma and transmit the teachings—
It was ti for him to make his appearance.
