Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Ning was full of anticipation as he waited for the Dream-Cultivation thod to finish theorizing.
However, all of dayti had passed, but the great green insect had shown no change. It still leaned against the roots of the old ginseng that had peeked out of the ground, unmoving and showing no signs of opening its eyes.
The swirling galaxy on its body twirled endlessly, as if swallowing or spitting sothing. The vitality that the entire Draconic Arcane Realm had absorbed from the outside world was slowly flowing into it.
Huh, did it really need such a long ti to theorize it?
It seed that this extraordinary ability that Fang Ning had ca up with was a truly amazing thing!
Fang Ning was suddenly filled with overwhelming confidence, so he waited uncharacteristically patiently.
This entire day, his mind was only filled with thoughts of him finally becoming the owner of the System after his ability was fully theorized.
As night fell, the lamps in the arcane realm lit up one by one, lighting up the night.
Fang Ning looked all around him, before he said to the System with a content tone, “The great green insect has been theorizing this ability for a whole day. It would seem that this technique of mine would not be circumvented by any spirit or deity. Once it take forms, spirits and deities will cry and the heavens will crack open!”
“What are you going on about, what do you an not being circumvented by any spirit or deity? Who gave you that kind of confidence?” asked the System perplexed.
“The great green insect did,” said Fang Ning confidently as he pointed at the palm-sized great green insect at his feet, “Just think back to those tis when you asked it questions in the past; after swallowing the problems, it would take at most an hour and a half to give you the answers. This ti around, it hasn’t woken up despite taking half a day, so that ability of mine must be difficult to fathom. It even needed to activate the powers of the universe to understand it.”
“Haha, it isn’t waking up because it’s already fast asleep…” the System threw cold water on Fang Ning as it continued, “After all, the great green insect is still a girl, it won’t snore. Did you not realize until now?”
“Hiss…” Fang Ning was shocked at the System’s words. He imdiately knelt down and studied the palm-sized insect.
He saw the insect’s breathing co out in constant breaths, its insect eyes tight and its green insect body rising and falling slowly. It was very obviously deep asleep.
“What the…f*ck…” Fang Ning felt rage rise up in him rapidly, “If you knew it was fast asleep, why didn’t you tell ?”
“Haha, what for? It’s not like my ti is the one that was wasted… Besides, you’re always on your bum day to night, so training your patience is good too, no?” said the System presumptuously.
“Haha, our friendship is over,” spat Fang Ning in anger before he stood up and turned to leave the herb garden.
“Why are you leaving… I’m not done yet. It fell asleep because it finished completing the entry system for that sh*tty ability of yours, it even finished cultivating the ability too… You should wake it up now, and it’ll give you the ability,” said the System gleefully.
“Alright, you dare to make a fool out of , just you wait…” Fang Ning turned back around and dug out two Honey-flavored Pills from his pocket, which he waved in front of the great green insect’s nose.
A mont later, the great green insect started talking in its sleep.
“I can’t sleep anymore, I have to wake up for food… It slls like Dragon Clan Honey-flavored Pills.
“Let sleep five more minutes.
“If I continue sleeping, I’ll beco a cocoon and turn into a butterfly…
“Oh, I’ll wake up now, I don’t want to turn into a butterfly. If I beco a butterfly, I can’t eat with a mouth anymore, and I’ll pass my days sucking dew through a straw. I would rather die and reincarnate then beco a butterfly…”
Fang Ning was confused as he listened to the great green insect, so he asked the System, “Why does it seem like the great green insect is talking to soone else to ?”
“Huh, that Beginner Level Intuition of yours is quite useful, so you’re not wrong. After it cultivated that Dream-Cultivation thod, a tiny dream insect must have been birthed as a result. It’s talking to itself, similar to how you talk to the other you in your subconsciousness,” explained the System.
“You actually know more than I do? Could it be that you also want to cultivate my Dream-Cultivation thod? However, you never sleep, so I don’t think it’s possible for you to have a tiny System,” said Fang Ning mirthfully.
“Why do I need to cultivate it? Just like you said, I’m able to have ten surveillance threads open simultaneously with no pollution and no side effects. Why would I need so tiny System?” barked the System.
“You’re amazing,” expressed Fang Ning in admiration. He had to show respect to a powerhouse, despite the fact that the powerhouse was an idiot of a System.
At this mont, the great green insect stretched lazily. Its forelimbs went up to rub at its insect eyes, before it spoke, “I’m done now, I’ve completed that ability of yours. You’ll be able to cultivate it now, but you’ll only be able to learn its rudints. You’ll have to theorize the rest, so if you don’t know anything you can just co look for again.”
Just as the System had said before, the battle genius’ understanding towards abilities was as dependable as always.
Fang Ning was happy beyond belief. He waved his hand and a stack of empty paper appeared together with a ball pen.
“Thank you for the effort, Lady Daqing, I would like you to write it down for as well,” said Fang Ning, pushing the paper over with two Honey-flavored Pills.
“Hehe, as long as there’s food, I’ll write for you.” The great green insect stretched one of its forelimbs outwards before using its jade bracelet to keep the pills away.
At this mont, the System suddenly said, “Previously, the great green insect agreed that it would split the treasures it carried three to seven with us. However, it hasn’t given anything, could it have forgotten? That won’t do, Sir Big Spender, you’ll have to remind it subtly.”
“I don’t have skin as thick as you, so you do it,” refused Fang Ning.
At this mont, the great green insect that was writing away diligently, suddenly stopped writing and looked at Fang Ning suspiciously.
“Just now, sobody told that I have to give 70% of the treasures in these jade bracelets of mine to the Great Azure Dragon. However, when I first got these bracelets, there wasn’t a single piece of treasure inside them, otherwise why would I still have that debt with ? I think I’ll just clear this debt of mine with so random piece of treasure then,” mumbled the great green insect; it seed that they had accidentally ntioned a difficult matter to it.
“Uh, I see. Why didn’t you say anything that ti? It’s okay, we have plenty of ti to talk about this in the future, continue writing first.” As usual, Fang Ning delayed the matter out of habit.
“D*mn, which b*stard stole my treasures? Could it be that that anglerfish Da Kang? But if it wanted to keep the treasures for itself, it didn’t need to bring the bracelets out,” said the System in confusion.
“Don’t let it get to you, we can talk about it later,” placated Fang Ning.
A mont later, the great green insect fervently wrote across the empty white paper, the workings of the ability being printed onto the parchnt in regular script. Its handwriting was neat, a sight that was truly comforting.
Fang Ning brought the papers up to eye-level and humd appreciatively before he spoke, “Lady Daqing, you write extrely well, I would say even better than calligraphers. Where did you learn to write so well?”
“Oh, my previous father taught how to write before I descended. He said that this script was popular among the people of the Lower Realm,” explained the great green insect simply, before it said worriedly, “Ah, please don’t forget that my treasures were stolen by soone, so you have to get the Great Azure Dragon to look for them for , since most of the treasures belong to him.”
“Don’t worry, that fellow will definitely do so,” said Fang Ning simply, unable to delay the casting of the ability any longer.
He started reading the papers quickly and all it took was the ti it would take for a single al. After he was done, he could not help sighing, “With that, it is done.”
“I’m going to cultivate it now, so don’t co bothering ,” said Fang Ning to the System. With the papers in his grip, he imdiately went into the System Space.
Not long after that, his constant snoring could be heard from within the green lounge in the System Space.
The System watched him for a while before it sighed helplessly, “Sir Big Spender, this ability of yours is quite formidable. I can’t even supervise your cultivation progress anymore… Could it be that you did this all on purpose?”
At this mont, Fang Ning spoke in his sleep, “Keep quiet, my boss is resting and I’m helping him cultivate a celestial art.”
“Huh, he’s actually cultivating things faster than the great green insect, could be the difference in innate intelligence. Brother, could you be the Dream Incarnation that resulted from Mr. Rich Boss’ cultivation?” exclaid the System in surprise.
“You’re absolutely right, I’m the boss’ Dream Incarnation. You must be that idiot System that only knows how to talk cr*p, that has zero intelligence, and has no emotions, I believe?” continued ‘Fang Ning’ in his sleep.
“Ugh, so that’s how Mr. Rich Boss actually sees . How upsetting, despite all I’ve done for him and all the reminders for him to do better,” lanted the System.
“You took away his body without giving him any freedom, and now you’re constantly spying on his thoughts, so why would he speak well of you? However, he doesn’t have a bad temper, and he’s soft-hearted, so he’ll continue tolerating you. However, the sa can’t be said for another person. The other person wants to make you into an obedient System who will no longer do as it pleases,” continued ‘Fang Ning’.
“Uh, you’re probably right. From the way you’re putting it, Big Billionaire over here really is a good host,” said the Fang Ning, a sliver of regret in its tone, “I think I’ll have to treat him better from now own. Maybe give him more days off or sothing. He sacrifices a lot, so I should treat him properly.”
“Yes, I… My boss has sacrificed a lot. He’s stuck in the small System Space every day, and there’s nothing he can do to seek even montary ease in an isolated place. His days pass by with difficulty, and he always has to clean up after you. You should know better than anyone,” said ‘Fang Ning’ in affirmation.
“Huh, these things that you’re saying, sothing tells that they’re not right. Are you sure you’re Fang Ning’s Dream Incarnation? And not actually him?” asked the System uncertainly.
“Why would it be him, can’t you see that he’s fast asleep?” denied ‘Fang Ning’ imdiately.
“Oh, you’re right, there’s no way for him to fake his snoring, and you’re definitely undergoing cultivation for that ability. If it were actually him, he would never be so diligent.” Upon further inspection, the System dismissed its suspicions.
‘Hehe, no matter how powerful this idiot System may be, seeing through aveteran actor 1 is impossible,’ thought Fang Ning to himself.
That’s right, he really was cultivating in his dreams and there was no Dream Incarnation whatsoever, but that did not an he was not cultivating at all.
In actuality, he was actually lucid dreaming.
A lucid dream was the kind of dream where one realizes that they are in a dream, so one is able to do as they pleased; be it flying or jumping or otherwise.
When he was still rely a normal human, he could not control his lucid dreams for long nor did he have enough energy to create amazing creations in his dreams, which ant that his dreams were never realistic enough.
However, things were different now. The strength of his spiritual sense has increased to Pond-level after he ate all those dicines, and he had already reached harmony in his dreams.
Therefore, he was living like an emperor in his dream right now, all it took to birth whatever he wanted was a single thought, and things would appear as they did in real life.
However, what was more important was that he realized as long as he was in this state, the System could not spy on his thoughts; it could be due to the fact that the Dream Realm itself served as a shield.
He could still hear whatever the System said, however.
An idea popped into his head after he realized this, so he used the so-called ‘Dream Incarnation’ to pull the wool over the System’s eyes, and the results were just as he expected.
With a third-party giving “objective” comnts, the System really did feel guilty about things and accepted suggestions easily.
