I created a safe zone in the nightmare world.

The three giants, Yunwu Shangren, Zhenyue, and Liuyan, have also been studying superior-level spells during this period.

They knew all too well how precious superior-level spells were.

Before the arrival of the Traveler's Merchant Guild, only Master Yunwu among them possessed an exceptional spell. Precisely because exceptional spells are incredibly precious and cannot be obtained without great fortune, they were still willing to pay even though they knew they had been ripped off by the Traveler's Merchant Guild.

But now, they actually saw an excellent-level spell here with Dai Xin?

"Is it really an exceptional-level spell?"

Liu Yan asked.

The garrison commander of Zhenyue said with certainty, "It must be. This looks like an auxiliary spell, which condenses strands of special spell energy with great power through some special means."

It must be said that Commander Zhenyue has a very sharp eye; he immediately saw through the source of the curse energy.

Dai Xin, Xu Chen, and the others were amazed.

Those who reach the Ascension Realm are indeed extraordinary; their superiority extends beyond mere physical strength. Their thinking, perception, and vision surpass them in every aspect. It's not that the gap between the Ascension Realm and the Great Perfection of the Transcendent Realm is truly that vast, but in this era, those who can turn the impossible into the possible, breaking through barriers and advancing to the Ascension Realm through sheer human effort, are themselves extraordinary individuals.

Little did they know that in the eyes of Master Yunwu and the others, Dai Xin was also extraordinary.

"Even we wouldn't find it easy to comprehend such an excellent-level spell. Our souls haven't undergone metamorphosis yet, and our thinking abilities and level of consciousness are far inferior to ours... For someone with an extraordinary body to master an excellent-level spell, Dai Xin definitely has the potential for advancement. I underestimated him before," the group thought.

Halfway through my thought, I suddenly came to my senses.

The focus now seems to be not on Dai Xin's mastery of exceptional sorcery, but rather on...

"You mean you learned this superior-level spell within the safe zone?"

"Yes, the shopkeeper in the safe zone spares no effort in training Dreamers, and no matter who it is, as long as they have enough contribution points, they can exchange for a superior-level spell comprehension technique."

Dai said, "The one I learned is called 'Spell Aura.' In addition, there are two other excellent spells in the safe zone: 'Clear Eye' and 'Ultimate Spell Missile.'"

Hmm, ultimate spell missile?

Liu Yan's hair twitched slightly; she was currently studying this spell. Because she was reluctant to consume the essence of the original scroll, she had only managed to master this extraordinary spell to the proficient level after studying it for so long.

However, even at the proficient level, this spell is one of her trump cards.

Master Yunwu's focus wasn't on that. He asked, "You mean that these three spells can be learned? Anyone can?" He then looked at Xu Chen and Fu Zhixuan.

Wait a minute, could it be...?

Fu Zhixuan said, "Elder Yun, that's true. I've also mastered an excellent spell. I've learned the Eye of Clarity."

Xu Chen said, "I only recently entered the safe zone, and I don't have enough contribution points to exchange for a single enlightenment opportunity yet. Well, the main problem is that there are many places in the safe zone where contribution points are needed, and I accidentally spent a bit too many, so I can't save up any more."

Is the problem that I can't accumulate enough?

Commander Luo, who is known for his composure as calm as a mountain, is now on the verge of losing his composure.

No, I can't let my guard down in front of my subordinates.

But it's really hard to hold back!

"You mean you only need to spend a relatively short time to accumulate contribution points to learn an excellent spell?"

Is that correct?

That's an exceptional scroll!

They couldn't bear to use the original spellbook they had; they only dared to use a replica made through technical means, one that retained a little bit of its essence.

Xu Chen said matter-of-factly, "After all, I am at the half-step Ascension Realm, which allows me to take on some high-difficulty commissions and earn contribution points far more efficiently than other members who are Dream Fallen."

Is that what he asked?

Dai Xin was also a little helpless about Lao Xu's straightforwardness. He explained, "The conditions for exchanging excellent spells set by the shopkeeper are not high, and can even be said to be very cheap. So it is not difficult for someone like us who is at the half-step transformation stage to accumulate such a contribution point."

After thinking for a moment, Dai Xin added, "Well, it's probably because the safe zone has the means to create or replicate superior-level spells." That's not hard to guess.

After all, there are far too many high-level members who have redeemed opportunities to gain enlightenment.

There may be a dozen, twenty or more, or even more.

A single spellbook can only be used three times, which is far from enough for normal use.

Master Yunwu was not surprised; his expression was somewhat complicated.

On the one hand, he was indeed somewhat envious of the safe zone's ability to create superior-level spells.

He had considered whether this method could be of greater value if it were in their hands.

But he restrained himself.

After all, Master Yunwu was among the first Dream Fallers on Blue Star, the first to fuse with cursed objects, and the one who withstood the corruption of the cursed objects, restrained many distracting thoughts, and gradually arrived at where he is today.

If his mindset and will were not strong enough, he would have been completely eroded by various side effects long ago.

On the other hand, Master Yunwu truly admired him.

Putting yourself in his shoes, if he had such skills, would he have been able to take out the precious scroll so unreservedly?

I'm afraid not!

"Furthermore, even if the shopkeeper has the means, this is still an excellent-grade spell. The cost of replicating it would be immense!"

"The scroll we copied ourselves, which only captures a fraction of its essence, already requires countless precious materials, let alone..." "We do owe that shopkeeper a favor."

Liu Yan hesitated to speak, then stopped, then seemed to want to speak again.

She really wanted to ask if she could go to the safe zone to learn that ultimate spell, missile, but she opened her mouth and didn't ask.

Now doesn't seem like the right time to ask. Let's ask next time when we have the chance.

But it wasn't just her; Master Yunwu and Master Zhenyue also became incredibly curious about the safe zone.

Yunwu Shangren suddenly remembered that before they parted ways last time, the shopkeeper suggested that the two dreamers exchange ideas, learn from each other's strengths, and make progress together.

"Perhaps, we could go?"

"People from Tiannan City are coming! That's great news!"

Shi An murmured.

Once the Dreamers of Tiannan City arrive, the allure of his safe zone will be fully revealed.

Of course, his suggestion of exchange was not just a pretext.

Members of the Safe Zone possess numerous skills and are highly proficient in sorcery. Perhaps, in terms of pure combat power, members of the Safe Zone are stronger.

However, in other aspects, the elites of Tiannan City may be more outstanding.

In any case, communication is always beneficial and harmless.

The members of the safe zone have made rapid progress not only because of the wonders, but also because they frequently exchange ideas and learn from each other. "However, if we want a large number of Dream Fallers to enter Tiannan City, well, we'll have to send the Ark of Salvation there."

This Spectacular Ark is indeed incredibly useful.

Because the entrance is on the Ark, the people of Tiannan City can directly pass through the space gate to reach the safe zone island, which is very convenient. Therefore, Tiannan City does not need to prepare much for this exchange trip.

The news spread quickly.

Tiannan City will organize a team to go to the safe zone for exchanges. The team will be led by Yunwu Shangren and Director Liuyan.

"Safe zone?"

"This is, well, a faction built in the Nightmare Wilderness, but it's also very special."

Some people didn't understand why the people of Tiannan City needed to travel to other forces for exchange and learning; it would make sense for teams from other forces to come to them. But a knowledgeable person quickly explained, "You guys don't understand. This safe zone is no simple matter; it's a hegemonic force in itself, on par with our Tiannan City and the Gray Harbor City across the street. The founder of the safe zone, a mysterious powerhouse codenamed 'Shopkeeper,' once killed a Lord with a single blow." "Ahem, I digress. To reiterate, this safe zone can be seen as a loose alliance, containing Dreamers from Baijiang, Lindong, and Chongshan cities, as well as many Dreamers from Nightmare Camps and Nightmare Town."

"I know some people will say that this is nothing, but the safe zone connects all the real worlds, camps, and towns. Not only that, the safe zone is also known as a cultivation holy land. Don't be fooled by the fact that most of the Dream Fallers here come from small places. Some of them are very powerful. At the same level, people from Tiannan City may not be their match."

"Otherwise, is it necessary for Venerable Yunwu and Director Liuyan to go there in person?"

Many people don't really believe what I said earlier, except for those who have heard of the Land of Revelation.

But then, we got to the important part.

Since Elder Yun is prepared to personally lead the team, it means that there are things worth learning from the safe zone.

"Does our martial arts school have any spots available? Master, I want to sign up too!"

"I think our guild should also keep up with the official pace."

"I heard that the extraordinary beings in the safe zone displayed astonishing combat power during the trials in the Land of Revelation. I want to go and see for myself!"

In the Trials of the Land of Revelation, they can only see a ranking list, not the actual battles.

Many powerful individuals are curious whether those extraordinary individuals in the safe zone are truly that powerful, and just how powerful they are.

In short, I have to go!

Within Tiannan City, various powerful local forces sought connections to gather information or simply submitted applications.

Master Yunwu pondered, "Since getting to the safe zone isn't difficult, they can go if they want, but we still need to limit the number of people. Too many people will make things chaotic. Xiao Dai, you can arrange the details."

Dai Xin: "Understood! I will definitely take care of it."

He needs to carefully consider the number of spots available for this exchange program.

Each department of the Countermeasures Bureau and the four corps of the city defense army must assign some personnel.

Dai Xin had always hoped to deepen cooperation with the safe zone, but there was considerable resistance within Tiannan City, and Yunwu Shangren and Zhenyue Tongshuai usually did not get involved in affairs.

But now, with the instructions from Master Yunwu, his personnel could no longer stand in his way.

The exchange group was quickly formed.

There were over a hundred people in total, mostly from the Tiannan City government, and a smaller portion were core members sent by various civilian forces. These people were all Dreamers who had never been to the safe zone.

Dai Xin was already a Silver member of the safe zone, and he knew very well that the hardest part of becoming a member of the safe zone was not making contributions, but finding the safe zone.

Opportunities like today, where one can directly enter the safe zone, are extremely rare.

Yuanyang Base, assembly point.

More than a hundred people who had fallen into the dream arrived one after another. Some were expectant, while others were indifferent.

The latter are people who didn't want to go to the safe zone, but were forced into it by their superiors.

"Teacher, you don't understand, this exchange group spot is extremely valuable today."

An elite member of the Third Army Corps, already a member, whispered, "Once we enter the safe zone, go to the exchange window when you have the chance, get some resources to exchange for contribution points, and then apply for a membership. Trust me, you won't regret it if you miss this opportunity."

"But I'm your captain!"

"Oh yeah, yeah, you can't beat me now, believe it or not."

Director Dai stepped forward and said a few words.

He glanced at his watch again: "It's almost time."

He looked towards the horizon.

Splash!

Wisps of cloud and mist surged in from all directions, converged, condensed, and revealed a sprightly old man.

It was none other than the Venerable Yunwu.

Immediately afterwards, flames rose from the earth, and Liu Yan, clad in orange-red armor with a large gem embedded in its center, emerged from the flames. "Let's go."

The hermit in the clouds gazed into the distance.

There, a massive ark has arrived.

One by one, the dreamers from the exchange group boarded the ark. At this point, some people still thought, "Are we going to the safe zone on the ark? No wonder they said it would be a quick round trip."

But not.

Once they pass through the gate, they will reach their destination.

This time, however, after passing through the gate, the delegation did not go directly into the mission hall, but instead...

Shi An changed the connection point of the gate, making the gate's exit open at the southern part of the island's main thoroughfare.

In this way, the members of the exchange group can have a clearer view of the entire safe zone.

"Have we... arrived?"

The exit is also a door.

A huge archway woven from rattan.

Behind the archway was the vast hall of the ark, from which they could see the lights inside and their colleagues queuing up behind them.

And ahead,

Bustling and noisy, a straight road stretches forward, flanked by magnificent buildings of various shapes and sizes.

The sunlight streamed down, making it feel warm and cozy.

"Is this really not the real world?"

Someone murmured.

It's just too dreamy.

Even if their base city in Tiannan City is built perfectly, there will still be wisps of gray mist in the air.

There is none here.

There is only one kind of peace that can truly make people relax.

Just like when they returned to the real world, they could even see some small shops on the roadside that were similar to those in the real world.

In the distance, the pedestrians coming and going on the road appeared remarkably relaxed and in excellent spirits, showing no signs of being in a nightmare world. If it weren't for their unique attire and the various strange weapons and magical artifacts they carried, they might truly have difficulty distinguishing between nightmare and reality. Even the Cloud Mist Master was somewhat surprised by the scene before him.

A young man wearing a silver-gray coat and adorned with sun and moon pendants walked over.

It was Shi Da, the store manager.

"Welcome to the safe zone, friends of Tiannan City."
