Soul Trigger

Chapter 207: Fragmented Dream (I)

WTF?

The moment Ji Li became alert, he saw a red light rushing towards him.

He had just dodged a few centimeters when the ground on all sides of him suddenly tore apart, turning into broken and sticky shapes that flashed with colorful colors and tightly wrapped around his body like a chain.

He instantly turned into a demon, but was unable to break free of those "chains". Realizing that the other party might have some ability to control dreams, he immediately used all his strength to activate "nightmare fission".

The entire body instantly turned into a dark nightmare, breaking into pieces and regenerating in the distance—

The ability of "Nightmare Fission" in previous generations has the spatial effect of exchanging positions with the clone.

Combined with the ability of clones, when used in dreams, special displacement abilities can be achieved.

As Ji Li's body was reorganized, the huge red light flashed by and rushed into the unfathomable darkness in the distance.

The next moment, fragments like quicksand entangled him and grabbed his wrist.

At this moment, Ji Li discovered that this chain was actually composed of countless densely packed memory fragments——

The fragments flashed with colorful colors, like densely packed small color screens, or irregular color films, flashing and flowing wildly, turning into the shape of chains that wrapped around his body:

"You ignorant ant! Prepare for the funeral the king has bestowed upon you—"

The next moment, the red light descending from the sky completely engulfed him, and before the voice finished speaking, the wild syllables suddenly changed:
"Ok?"

Ji Li's body was standing there unharmed, with a look of doubt in his eyes:
Is your attack tasteless?

But his body did not stop, as "Nightmare Fission" was fully activated, his body turned into thousands of nightmares and pounced towards the boundless darkness at the end of the space.

At the same time, the corner of space he pounced on also began to disintegrate at a high speed:
Something is not right, let's retreat first.

"Leave!!!"

Following an angry roar, the darkness at the end of the space burst into a large red light, dyeing all the darkness red.

The thousands of "nightmares" that Ji Li transformed into collided with a glass-like boundary, causing large translucent cracks to appear.

He could only avoid this corner and look for other breakthroughs.

But the dreams he created were broken, and at this moment, a surging red light burst out from inside, and they healed at a high speed in a very short time.

"Why, do you still want me to stay as your guest?"

His body reassembled in mid-air, and he turned around to look at the door of flesh and blood that opened in his dream.

"You are special."

As the words fell, Ji Li's eyes blurred and he found himself being pulled across thousands of miles to the door of flesh and blood, standing among countless blurry figures.

Although those blurry figures were kneeling on the ground at this moment, they all turned their heads and looked at him.

The "pig face" with a clearer image and the suspected "mouthpiece" figure also turned around and cast a condescending look.

"To open a branch rudder in other people's dreams and pay respects through a flesh and blood door, is this the method of a predator?"

As Ji Li spoke, he secretly used his spiritual essence to probe the current dream space.

The dream that could be easily disturbed before now feels as still as a mountain.

It is impossible to create a way out, and the perception is restricted. It is impossible to check whether there are people sleeping or dreaming around, so as to escape.

Now he could be completely sure that this being called "Predator King" possessed some deeper dream control ability.

"This is the method of the Lord of All Beasts."

Unexpectedly, the voice responded to Ji Li's casual teasing.

It was at this time that Ji Li realized that the person who was speaking was not the figure sitting on the throne, but the blood-red figure standing in front of the door, who he identified as the suspected "mouthpiece".

The other party opened his arms and raised them high:

"It's the method of the Predator King!"

The countless figures around him suddenly burst into wailing and crying like demons and ghosts, as if responding to him.

The "Mouthpiece" slowly put down his hands and stared at Ji Li in front of him:
"Intruder, tell me your origins."

"be lost."

"Lost in the minds of my subordinates?"

"I can't help it. I'm just born with a poor sense of direction."

"Are you really not afraid?"

"Who are you?"

The mouthpiece was silent for a few seconds, then burst into laughter:
"It's been a long time since I encountered such a special self-will..."

"That means you should go out and see the world more."

The laughter stopped abruptly:

"You are from the Special Management Bureau."

"You destroyed my business and captured Edric. And you entered his dreams to get something from him."

"So that's what the scorpion is called."

"You admit it?" "Nonsense, I was just kidding you."

The atmosphere in the entire space suddenly stagnated, and Ji Li felt a tremendous pressure sweeping over him, like a ton of pressure sinking on him:

"My patience has its limits..."

"Then I apologize?"

The mouthpiece fell silent again, and spoke after a while:
"Aren't you curious about why this scene is here? Why did that little soldier named Luo Hu die of a mental explosion?"

"From what you said, it seems that you are ready to tell me."

Ji Li listened attentively, while the "Mouthpiece" sneered:
"You are very special. Your 'essence' must be different from that of ordinary people..."

"But if you don't suffer a little, you won't have a fearful heart towards the Lord of Beasts—"

Before he could finish his words, the overwhelming debris turned into tentacles and slapped him fiercely. Ji Li, who had been ready for a long time, instantly turned into an evil spirit.

Thousands of hyphae exploded from his body, tearing the figures around him apart. He exerted force on the ground with his feet, turning it into a dream shard, which shot out like a cannonball and rushed towards the throat.

Because ectoplasm and the Trinity themselves come from the soul and consciousness, the power exerted in this dream space is almost the same as in the real world.

But the space around Ji Li was stretched very long in an instant. Even at the instantaneous speed of Soul Mach, it felt that the figure of the mouthpiece was far away in the horizon.

The figures around him were twisted and roaring as they pounced towards him.

Ji Li, who had no intention of confronting head-on, gave up his feint attack instantly. His powerful spiritual essence transformed into mycelium that wrapped around his hands and entangled them, turning into a surging biological auger that slammed into the ground.

Instantly, the ground began to shatter, with thousands of cracks spreading over dozens of meters, stirring up fragments of memory all over the sky.

Ji Li directly tore the dream space under his feet and jumped in. He heard the roar of the throat:

"Don't think about it!"

The next moment he felt dizzy and found himself back to where he was. The broken ground that he had torn apart was filled with red light and was healing at a high speed.

It seems that I can't get out for the time being unless I kill this guy.

The moment his thoughts locked onto Ji Li, he leaped up again, his arms transformed into thick, knotted hyphae and burst out towards the throat, but the latter just sneered, and a figure exploded into a twisted monster that blocked Ji Li's attack.

The figure was tall, almost the same size as Ji Li in his desperate state, and was dressed in black, looking like a strong silhouette.

He stood in front of Ji Li's attack and was smashed into black fragments. Ji Li's arm was also bounced back fiercely.

The next moment, the figures around him turned into twisted silhouette monsters and pounced towards Ji Li.

His spiritual essence burst out and he stomped on the ground suddenly.

Large pieces of hyphae exploded like bombs, shooting out from the soles of feet in all directions, hardening and pulling at high speed in the air, clearing out the surroundings in an instant.

"Now that you have some strength, I am more curious about your true nature..."

Mouthpiece was not surprised but delighted, and casually threw a red light into the body of another figure——

It's "pig noodles".

Its body exploded instantly, transforming into a flesh monster with a pig's head and a human body, with dense sutures all over its body. It raised the bone butcher knife in its hand and chopped it down fiercely at Ji Li -

A bloody track rising into the sky rose from the ground. Ji Li stepped back brazenly, stomped on the ground hard and bounced out.

The mycelium hardened its entire body and entered an armored state. Huge and hard horns grew out of its shoulders and slammed fiercely into the monster transformed from the "pig face".

But the pig-headed man, whose body was as big as a hill, just roared and raised the bone knife to block Ji Li's attack. His body slid backwards at high speed for several meters before stopping with a bang.

The next moment, the belly split open like petals, and countless furry tentacles emerged from it and pulled towards Ji Li.

Ji Li opened his mouth and gave him a mouthful of overflowing spiritual fire. The pig-headed man screamed and retreated madly.

At the same time, behind Ji Li, Houshen's eyes became more and more satisfied. He flicked his fingers again and shot out a red light that penetrated into the bodies of "Scorpion" and a man with a feminine face.

The former transformed into a scorpion-tailed lion with a pitch-black body and a mane burning like green flames, and rushed towards Ji Li.

The latter transformed into a corrupted lizard made of magenta flames, rumbling forward while opening its mouth and spitting out magenta flames.

They were all several meters tall at the shoulder and over ten meters long. Their huge bodies carried overwhelming power and rushed forward like chariots:

"Feel the power of the Predator, and you'll want to become one of us..."

But before the mouthpiece could finish his words, the scorpion-tailed lion with green flaming mane let out a mournful howl and flew backwards like a cannonball, leaving a green flame trail and a huge gully on the ground.

The magenta giant lizard was covered by the powerful spiritual fire that Ji Li sprayed out when he turned around.

Then, the pure spiritual essence gathered in the high-raised horns of the Desperate One, and turned into a thick laser with a black background and white edges, which pierced through the sky and hit the lizard in the shape of a column that penetrated its body.

Almost covering its entire body, the head and the internal cavity of the body disappeared, only half of the flesh and limbs remained in place, and suddenly fell to the ground and dissipated into fragments all over the sky:

"It's just a little bit of essence, not reality. It really can't stop you... Good, very good——"

Facing Ji Li who rushed towards him and punched into his chest, the "Mouthpiece" showed an extremely weird smile on his face -

Ji Li's heart skipped a beat and he felt a strange throbbing coming from the trigger of his soul. His body suddenly froze in place.

The next moment, a thick red liquid burst out from the facial features of the blood-colored figure, as if it was a blood-colored light that was compressed into a solid form, and it continued to drill into the visor of the Desperate Man:

"Welcome to our home, a new predator!"
