Dream Travel

Chapter 479 We're the Trouble
"Are they so easy to talk to?" Bai Mu and Shan Qifeng were chatting with the old man as they walked back to find the Mingjing Sect.

"They're not stupid. The people from the Reverse Yuan Cult have all jumped out. Why are they staring at us two passersby?"

"Then why don't you go after the Reverse Yuan Cult?"

Shan Qifeng bluntly stated, "The Reverse Yuan Sect is not strong enough. They are skilled in the Reverse Yuan Demonic Art, which is adept at stealing people's essence, but it also makes them too dependent on it."

They'll only show themselves at this time because they're attracted to the zombies; the zombies can be used as a furnace for their Reverse Yuan Demonic Art.

"Ah, this..." Bai Mu was shocked. Thinking of the zombie's withered tree bark appearance, he composed himself several times: "Are all the people in the Demonic Sect this perverted?"

"That's not entirely true." Shan Qifeng shook his head. "Actually, there are some who aren't bad, but those people act unconventionally and don't follow the rules, so they easily offend others."

Furthermore, the members of the Demonic Sect were no good either, so some of them were dragged into the demonic path.

After fighting together, Shan Qifeng became more talkative about local affairs.

"For the members of the Demonic Cult, dragging those people into the demonic path can help relieve their pressure. As for the harm to the Demonic Cult, everyone hates the Demonic Cult, so what harm could it possibly cause?"

Shan Qifeng glanced back at Qingzhou. The Demon Slayer Division existed to control these demonic sects.

The Demonic Cult and the Demonic Path are similar, but they are also different.

People who walk the demonic path are not necessarily bad. It's possible that they are driven by short-sightedness and a desire for quick success, or it could be the situation he described.

However, he always stayed in Tianshan Village. He had been involved in these matters when he was young, but after he grew old and reached the age of 'knowing one's destiny,' he lived in seclusion in Tianshan Village.

"So, according to you, I'm considered a demonic cultivator?"

"What do you think? Controlling demonic souls, and even using lightning magic, are all tinged with something unorthodox."

Lei Fa was masculine, and Bai Mu's lightning was powerful enough, but something about that lightning just didn't look right.

"There's nothing I can do about it. The materials I obtained are all dubious. But lightning shouldn't be a problem, right? This is considered bio-lightning."

Bai Mu glanced at the weapon case. This thing was made with scales from an electric dragon, which is why it could generate electricity. The materials were affected by Dream Erosion, which allowed it to be sublimated.

However, such fusion of foreign materials and dream-eroded materials is rare. The effect of the dream-eroded materials he obtained was biological fusion.

This is why imported materials can be transformed into 'Dream Erosion Materials'.

If you use dream-etched materials like hell metal, you can't achieve this level of quality.

Therefore, the original upper limit of the scales of the electric dragon has been forcibly increased by the Dream Erosion material.

"The lightning you unleashed was powerful enough, but not yang enough," Shan Qifeng shook his head.

"Oh, so the numerical value is high enough, but it doesn't have any effects like warding off evil, right?"

"..." Shan Qifeng nodded after understanding for a moment.

The description of the White Curtain is not wrong; it has strong attack power, but it is not very effective against evil spirits and the like, and its main purpose is to inflict damage.

Then there's hellfire, which is obviously not a good fire.

There are also demonic souls that can be commanded, which is a genuine demonic method. He wouldn't even be surprised if Bai Mu released a zombie in the next operation.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. The Reverse Yuan Demon Art is destined to fail and will not amount to much. Compared with the Mingjing Sect, the Reverse Yuan Sect is just a minor player."

"So you specifically chose the toughest ones to guard against me, and now you've even got the Demon Slayer Division to keep an eye on me."

"Hahaha, I'm about to die, so of course things need to be done thoroughly. Besides, you're not being honest either, willing to get involved in these things, you must have other motives."

"You're absolutely right, shall we hurry up?"

"It seems Qingzhou doesn't have anything that attracts you either."

"Nothing really appealed to me, I just bought a few small things. You still don't have enough money." Bai Mu said casually. The mechanical arts in this world have developed for civilian use, but Bai Mu still wanted to play with computers and other things.

"Then what you bought is not an ordinary thing."

"Hmm, a few pieces of clothing... Why aren't there any storage items here?"

"what is that?"

"It's a small bag that can hold a lot of things."

"Never seen it before." Shan Qifeng shook his head.

The two quickened their pace, and when they arrived at the headquarters of the Mingjing Sect, Shan Qifeng looked exhausted.

He took a breath and looked melancholy: "So this is how I was abandoned by the heavens after I left the Land of Destiny. Now that I think about it, it's fortunate that you came, otherwise things would have been even worse."

He originally planned to wait two years before returning to public life. If things have already turned out this way two years earlier, and he waits another two years before going out, he's afraid he'll find it very difficult to make any progress.

Now at least he has a helper; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to reach the Mingjing Sect headquarters in full condition.

He encountered too many troubles along the way, many of which came to him on their own initiative.

Encountering a zombie king was just the beginning; they encountered other troubles along the way.

The earth dragon's transformation was a once-in-a-millennium event. Did an earth dragon actually escape, or was it a grumpy one that charged straight at them?

They went through a lot of trouble to get rid of it, mainly because that thing was not only difficult to kill, but generally they would avoid killing it if possible.

Earth dragons are beneficial to the earth.

In addition, the people from the Reverse Yuan Cult also came knocking, but they were after Bai Mu. They wanted not only the weapons and equipment on Bai Mu, but also the two of them.

One is a Qi Refining expert, and the other is a Body Refining expert; both are excellent vessels for the Reverse Yuan Demonic Art...

In addition, the zombie incident offended the Reverse Yuan Cult, so the evil cult relentlessly pursued them.

However, Shan Qifeng was happy to see this happen.

The more people on both the righteous and demonic paths who pay attention to the White Curtain, the better.

Do you think we might run into new trouble?

"This is the headquarters of the Mingjing Sect, how could there be any other trouble? We are the trouble!"

Shan Qifeng said with certainty, "The Mingjing Sect has been developing for decades. How could there be any hidden dangers at its headquarters in such a short time?"

"That's not necessarily true..." Bai Mu glanced at Shan Qifeng. When they encountered the earth dragon, Shan Qifeng had stated with certainty that the earth dragon was a benevolent beast.

The places where earth dragons live are not necessarily blessed with favorable weather, but at least the earth's veins are stable and unobstructed. Therefore, in this ancient world, earth dragons are rare 'wild protected animals'.

Moreover, even without protection, earth dragons are quite powerful and have few natural enemies; after all, the word 'dragon' wasn't added to them casually.

However, the 'benevolent beast' that Shan Qifeng spoke of went berserk as it turned over and charged at them.

Moreover, Bai Mu discovered that along the way, the traces of dream erosion on Shan Qifeng's body were becoming increasingly intense, even though the person involved was unaware of them.

But Bai Mu, as a dream walker, could sense these things; the traces of dream erosion were similar to the hazy feeling brought by the source of another dream.

However, what Shan Qifeng felt was not a sense of haziness, but a sense of tearing, as if the signal image had been severely interfered with, resulting in severe image tearing and shaking.

Under these circumstances, for Shan Qifeng to survive would probably have to defy the heavens...
