There's something wrong with me

Chapter 255 Fighting with Me?

'The heavens... are a hunchbacked old man...'

The emperor was genuinely stunned when he discovered how vivid the memory was.

He even had a strange urge to draw what the 'Heavenly Dao in Dreams' looked like.

'Wouldn't that be disrespectful to Heaven?'

He hesitated, then walked to the nearby bookshelf. 'But...it was just a dream...'

And as the emperor, could my dream of observing the heavens be some kind of predestined opportunity?

After much deliberation, the emperor finally decided to proceed with the painting.

He even planned to worship this portrait whenever he wanted to pray to Heaven.

Because the memory is so vivid, it really gives people a special feeling of 'deceiving the real thing'.

Indeed, the emperor now clearly knows that it was a dream, but he also feels that perhaps it was a message from heaven and earth.

This feeling is very abstract.

After all, the emperor was a Golden Core cultivator with considerable strength, and thus knew some knowledge related to the human body.

For example, after a person has a dream, they basically forget it as soon as they wake up.

Especially when it comes to strangers in dreams, it's difficult to recall their appearance in an abstract way.

This applies to all the Golden Core cultivators in this world as well.

But such a vivid memory was not right in the emperor's mind.

In his view, this could very well be a kind of 'prophecy' or a dream sent by the heavens!

Because of our normal dreaming, the body subconsciously filters out useless information as a self-protection mechanism to prevent reality from mixing with dreams and causing confusion.

In addition, due to sleep cycles and biological principles, forgetting dreams is a very normal thing.

Especially since the Golden Elixir has not yet touched upon the 'divine' realm, it is naturally inseparable from this bodily instinct.

Although the emperor didn't have such professional knowledge, he roughly understood the meaning.

Although ancient people did not have the advanced technology of modern times, they were not fools; they also explored some of the mysteries of life.

Ancient medical techniques and various schools of thought are all related to this, representing an exploration of human physiology and thought.

And also this mystery.

The emperor felt that this dream was not simple.

That immortal realm might really exist!

And their world is perhaps just a corner of outer space.

at the same time.

Thousands of miles away.

Zhang Feng used his divine sense to look at the emperor who was drawing his own portrait and felt that his idea about forgetting dreams was comparable to research in ordinary reality.

But even the Golden Elixir can cause one to forget dreams.

This also proves that the Golden Elixir in this world cannot enter other people's dreams, nor can it accurately interfere with other people's thoughts.

Of course, this interference is done without harming the other person in the slightest, by recording a complete memory into the consciousness of another cultivator.

This is exactly what Zhang Feng is doing now.

It is entirely related to advanced neuroscience and biotechnology, as well as the high-dimensional specialness of the God of Transformation.

Then add incomparably realistic computing power and real data.

Scenes within the dream world.

Although many are blurred, they are all objects that were touched by the emperor.

Zhang Fengke's calculations were all based on existing data.

It is even possible for the emperor to remember this data and study it after waking up.

Zhang Feng did not cut corners.

They also felt that if the emperor could easily come up with a few, the celestial realm might have an even higher level of refinement.

It's quite interesting that items from dreams can reappear in reality.

But now it seems that he had no such idea other than painting.

Never mind then, I'll stick with myself anyway.

Thinking.

It is now late at night.

Zhang Feng glanced at the tents at the back of the convoy; the bandit was sleeping in a half-awake state.

He looked like he was about to run away.

Then try entering the dream thief's body again to see if you can awaken his 'mystery of the womb'.

Although it was unrealistic, Zhang Feng still had the idea and put him to sleep.

And then he started dreaming again.

Zhang Feng, filled with curiosity, entered his dream.

then.

A fragmented dream world of an ordinary person.

Zhang Feng watched as the crazed thief punched and kicked a figure from his dream that resembled "himself".

How to say this.

Is it true that what you think about during the day, you dream about at night?
Zhang Feng now feels that this statement is quite true.

This master thief was having a great time in his dream.

Even in reality, the sleeping thief revealed a slightly unnatural smile.

It seems he really had a good dream.

Afterwards, Zhang Feng thought for a moment, pointed his finger, and in his dream, he transformed into a Nascent Soul cultivator and began punching and kicking the great thief again.

In an instant, the beautiful dream turned into a nightmare from which I could not wake up.

"Don't kill me... before..." In reality, the thief also uttered words in his sleep, like a mosquito buzzing, and the expression on his face turned to terror.

At the same time, in order to let him rest and sleep well, Zhang Feng also sealed off his surroundings and silenced his voice so that the Crown Prince and others would not find out and wake him up.

Wait until all this is done.

Zhang Feng began to wander in his shattered dream world.

His shattered dream was like a game where everything was generated in real time; wherever the 'master' looked, that's where it appeared.

But Zhang Feng is an outsider, offering a panoramic view from a God's-eye perspective.

He could use the characteristics of neurology and spiritual transformation to reveal all of his dreams at once.

We'll wait until everything is fully displayed.

In short, it was indescribable chaos.

It contains not only street vendors, but also deadly swordsmen, as well as scenes of forests and water flowing through the city.

This is a dream of fragmented memories.

Zhang Feng also thought that the reason why people experience large-scale scene changes when they dream is because of this kind of 'fragment transition'.

But generally speaking, people only do what they think of.

Zhang Feng, on the other hand, used the thief's brain as a storage device through the 'materialization' of dreams, and extracted it all at once.

The reason why we say "dream materialization" is that dreams are a kind of virtual mental projection, a state of unconscious and undefended thinking in the brain.

then.

Zhang Feng can easily use the materialized spiritual characteristics of his primordial spirit to establish a 'wavelength' connection with dreams and extract data from the brain.

Of course, this is also how I usually observe other people's thoughts, but it's not as convenient, concrete, or vivid as in dreams.

Look, in my dream I'm about to subject the thief to the most brutal torture, and the thief is so terrified in the dream that he faints several times. How realistic is that?

In most cases, a person can wake up.

Just like when someone falls from a building in a dream, or encounters something terrifying, they will wake up suddenly.

But now that Zhang Feng is suppressing the dream, the great thief cannot wake up.

But it won't scare him to the point of brain death or anything like that; at most, it will just make him feel uncomfortable.

Zhang Feng pondered, then looked at his strange dreams again, only to find they were of no use.

Think about it carefully.

He doesn't even know how many lifetimes he's been through.

Even if the original spirit was intact at the beginning, it would have been worn down over time and would have been finished long ago.

Otherwise, he would have gone to find jade long ago, and that jade wouldn't have remained in the royal family for so long.

Just like myself, if I were to carry the memories of my primordial spirit to another body, I would basically become invincible after a few years.

but.

Zhang Feng had another method, which was to test the jade he had kept for himself.

With a thought flashing through his mind, Zhang Feng copied all the prototypes of the talismans inside the jade stone in his dream, and then marked the information about the cave.

After finishing, Zhang Feng set up a stone carving next to the great thief, just like the one in the cave.

Then he dispersed the image of 'himself being executed' and threw the thief into the cave.

The next second, it truly became a bizarre and fantastical dream.

After the thief discovered that Zhang Feng was missing, he didn't care about it at all, and instead thought it was quite normal.

At the same time, he looked at the jade in his hand and then at the carving.

What is this?

The thief was completely baffled; the dream world remained unchanged, and no extraneous fragments of thought appeared.

When Zhang Feng saw this scene, to be honest, he wasn't disappointed. Instead, he suddenly felt a sense of 'sorrow'.

An ancient cultivator, a genius who has already touched the edge of cause and effect, and may be the one who creates the Five Elements Rule Body.

A genius whose spiritual insights are no less than those of the Great Immortal of Lingshan.

Now, although his soul is still the same as before, in this life he is just a wandering swordsman with many evil deeds and low cultivation.

If only he had known from the beginning that his future life would be like this.

Will he choose to reincarnate?

Thinking of this, Zhang Feng knew that he couldn't have calculated that far ahead, even if he didn't know anything else.

Even ten thousand years ago, in his next reincarnation, he may have experienced a mystery in the womb, which led to his subsequent lives drifting along with the tide.

The thief's 'answer and treasure'.

It is precisely this 'mystery in the womb' that makes mountains appear as mountains.

It is a state of mind that one gains insight into.

When one recognizes that the master thief is a genius no less than the "honored guests," one has already obtained the treasure within the answer.

……

In the days that followed, the thief continued as before, and even upon waking that day, he forgot all about the terrifying nightmare.

And in the following nights, he remained in a semi-conscious state, ready to flee at any moment.

In his view, Zhang Feng hadn't eaten for over two months.

Zhang Feng remained seated at the front of the car, and also used his divine sense to scan the thief.

His current morality score is both 0.

But his temperament remained unchanged.

This also gave Zhang Feng some answers about mindset.

That is to say, a person's actions and temperament seem to have no relation.

However, if one has a good character, one is likely to do more good deeds, and thus have a higher merit value.

It's not that he did a lot of good deeds and therefore had a good character.

This also corresponds to the saying, "A gentleman judges by actions, not by intentions."

Human beings are inherently chaotic.

Zhang Feng gained some insights and made appropriate adjustments to the structure of the talismans.

The primordial spirit is formed from the spirit and the seven emotions and six desires. Whenever one gains insight, its structure can be optimized for a better future.

It is also equivalent to completing.

This was Zhang Feng's first time cultivating the Yang Shen path, and he made every effort to fill in the gaps in the details and foundation.

Because the experiences of those geniuses who fell into demonic possession are still vivid in my mind.

Although I am no longer plagued by inner demons, not completing the necessary repairs will leave me with a flaw in my strength.

It's basically just patching and mending.

It's like building a skyscraper with mahjong tiles. If you see a missing corner, you just put a mahjong tile in to fill the gap.

Now, my understanding is crammed with everything from the basics to the pre-Golden Elixir stage.

Zhang Feng could now confidently say that, under normal circumstances, once I reach the Foundation Establishment stage, I will be invincible below the Golden Core stage.

Furthermore, according to the calculations of this world, one could also try a one-for-one exchange when facing a cultivator who has just entered the Nascent Soul stage.

This leap in power also means that within its own system, conventional global combat strength has collapsed.

After all, he was able to reach the Foundation Establishment stage right from the start, which is equivalent to the "initial entry into the Nascent Soul stage" in the normal world.

Of course, this is a different story if the old man is the only one starting out.

And some unconventional aspects of the world should be considered separately.

Zhang Feng felt that he might be facing some unconventional aspects of the world from now on.

Because according to the inherent logic of language, the world of growth is basically a small example of the world that follows.

……

Two days later.

When they were still hundreds of miles away from the imperial city.

Zhang Feng suddenly discovered something interesting today.

That was in a small county town ten miles away, where a Foundation Establishment Perfected wolf demon, disguised as a human using magic, was discussing a 'risk-free business' with a wealthy man.

It's basically a scam.

For example, the wolf demon Taoist priest would first go to a house and cause trouble, creating the illusion of being 'possessed by a ghost'.

Then the wealthy man used his position in the county town to claim that he knew a certain master.

Then came the usual scam: the wealthy man, accompanied by the wolf demon Taoist priest, went over and performed a grand ritual to "solve the ghost possession."

In reality, it was their own doing.

At the same time, Zhang Feng found it quite amusing to hear about such a childish scam.

Because they then went on to say that it was difficult to handle cases locally, so they suggested trying out people from other places first.

Then, according to their luck and guidance, their 'first target' was their own convoy.

This made it hard for Zhang Feng to suppress his smile.

After all, putting aside themselves, the Crown Prince alone is someone they can't afford to offend.

In particular, his own convoy included not only the Crown Prince who was about to enter the Golden Core stage, but also two Golden Core experts and more than a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators.

These scammers really have a clever plan.

Instead of choosing people they knew from the county, they picked a group of outsiders.

Zhang Feng didn't know what they would think after learning their identities.

But I probably won't be very happy.

Thinking to himself, Zhang Feng suddenly spoke for the first time in months, addressing the approaching Crown Prince and his entourage:

"Let's go to Yiliang Town."

This town is where the wolf demon and his companions are located.

Zhang Feng also wanted to have some fun, so he thought that instead of having him come over, he and his men would go directly to their residence.

"Yes!"

The prince and the others didn't ask any questions; they simply went wherever the immortal told them to go.

at the same time.

Zhang Feng and his group had just arrived outside the town.

It was on a street about 100 meters away.

The wolf demon gazed at Zhang Feng and the others from afar, never expecting that these merchants would actually enter the city!

'I saw this caravan from a high place before. They were dressed in fine clothes and looked like wealthy merchants. Perhaps they had some treasures on them.'

I intended to go out of the city again to investigate, and if nothing happened, I would make trouble for them at night.

I just didn't expect them to actually enter the city...

The wolf demon was not happy that his plan had been interrupted.

Because it was the first time he was doing these things, he had been planning for a very long time.

Then, during discussions with the wealthy man, they finally came up with such a good plan.

But the caravan's sudden turn into the city thwarted all his plans.

This feeling is very uncomfortable.

It's like setting up all sorts of traps in a forest, waiting to see how the prey will be caught by them.

But the prey suddenly rushed out from the side and crashed headfirst into a tree next to it, dying instantly.

That feeling of being in complete control vanished instantly.

However, now that the prey has arrived, we still have to do our work.

The wolf demon thought to himself, then touched his skin mask again. After Zhang Feng and the others entered the city, he silently followed their caravan.

at the same time.

The prince and the two Golden Core cultivators in the entourage suddenly sensed a demon following them.

Its true form is a wolf hidden inside a large garment, and it walks upright on two legs.

The illusion of a person was created by him using the hide of a wild animal.

"Go to the wealthy man's mansion."

Zhang Feng ignored the crowd's probing questions and instead turned his gaze to a street eight miles to the southeast.

The prince and the others remained silent, making no mention of a demon following them, and obediently followed Zhang Feng's orders.

Now it's in their minds.

I could clearly sense the location the immortal was pointing to.

But after sitting in the car for a few minutes, Zhang Feng turned his gaze to the corner of an inn.

There were a dozen or so strange ants there.

These were the first beans that were scattered to create soldiers.

Now they are tilting their little heads up, smelling the aroma of food at the entrance of someone's shop.

How did things get to this point?

Seeing their expressions, Zhang Feng couldn't help but chuckle.

rustle-

At the same time, the little ants also saw 'Your Excellency' and wanted to run over.

During these days, the first batch of brothers and sisters have all separated and are searching for their venerable one in various places.

Of course, they also saw a bigger world, and then, like they do now, they became curious about everything.

But in the early stages of spiritual awakening, under the weight of innocence, one is also afraid of everything and dares not do anything out of line.

'You don't need to follow my example.'

Zhang Feng sensed their curiosity and saw their exploration of the world. He gently transmitted his voice, saying, "Find your fellow disciples and travel the world together. You don't need to look for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Feng had a sudden thought, and they found themselves in a forest thousands of miles away.

And there were also stacks of fragrant dishes placed in front of them.

Zhang Feng still dotes on his "creation," treating it like a junior or a descendant.

at the same time.

The county town, the rear of the convoy.

The wolf demon, who was following at a distance, was unaware of a scene unfolding within the caravan ahead that he could not comprehend.

Otherwise, even if he had a thousand times the courage, or even if he were to reach the Nascent Soul realm, he wouldn't dare to provoke such an immortal who could casually use the 'Teleportation Technique'!

But it is precisely ignorance that breeds fearlessness.

The wolf demon continued to follow, trying to guess which inn Zhang Feng and his companions would stay at.

Especially as the convoy continued its journey.

There's an old, dilapidated house in the backyard of Xilai Inn that could be considered a haunted place...

Feiyan Inn is...

The wolf demon also kept an eye on the inns that the caravan passed as they walked.

As soon as the convoy stops, he can quickly come up with a plan.

This is called planning before acting.

The wolf demon was well-versed in human military strategy, and although such terms were not found in these strategies, he deeply understood the meaning of planning before acting.

However, as the convoy continued forward, turning through several streets and passing several inns, it showed no sign of stopping.

The wolf demon was a little curious, wondering what the caravan was up to.

Especially when the convoy turned another corner and headed towards the street where the wealthy man's mansion was located.

The wolf demon felt that something was amiss.
