Carefree Path of Dreams Chapter 367

Chapter 367: Node

Chapter 367: Node

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

In Fang Yuan eyes, Li Bai was merely a worthless stalk of weed. As long as Li Bai did not come close to Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan could not be bothered about him.

After the banquet, the dream masters returned to their rooms. Fang Yuan sat cross-legged and began detailedly searching inside the inheritance of Sage Changli.

In his actualised dream world, a dragon pearl shined brightly. It was hazy inside the pearl and a golden-green dragon was pulling out streaks from it to be analysed.

“This is the Sage’s legacy. As I am only a dream master at the 4th Tier of Illusionary Divine, I can only at most see the middle levels and not its core… However, they are already enough!”

Based on his memory, Fang Yuan picked out a grey spot and analysed it. It turned into a magnificent map of the world.

The vast Da Qian Empire was in the centre with 99 regions in it and it occupied a large portion of fate energy. On it, there were many tiny stars littered around.

“Evidence of fate and breaths of the earth could be found in the world. This was especially so for breaths of the earth, they had meridians which could be found and nodes on the earth…..”

Areas with numerous nodes gathered would form natural prosperous lands and spiritual lands. Some of these areas were hubs of earth meridians and were key positions that would attract numerous people.

It was obvious that there was such an area inside the 9 Extremes Mountain!

“Sage Changli had calculated that there are over a thousand nodes in the entire Da Qian Empire. However, this map is slightly tattered and there are only 365 nodes shown on it, which is the number of days in a year… If arrangements are made on these nodes and they are tweaked during crucial moments, the direction of the breaths of the earth can even be manipulated. This would be a big hit to the imperial court of Da Qian!”

Fang Yuan faced turned serious as he continued to ponder, “But it seems like Sage Changli’s arrangements are not so simple, there’s more to it!”

Fang Yuan had one-sixth of Sage’s heredity while all other dream masters and Da Qian royalties solely relied on information from Changli’s investigations. Thus, Fang Yuan could naturally read more than what meets the eyes.

“It is not so simple to be just about disrupting the foundation… But I still have to wait and see what would truly happen…”

Amongst the thousand plus earth meridian nodes in Da Qian, some were big while some were small. The one in 9 Extremes Mountain was definitely an extremely important one.

Of course, Fang Yuan himself was clear of that and the Realm Alliance was clear of that too. But no one knew what Da Qian and the Hidden Dragon Guards would do.

Three days later.

An opening in 9 Extremes Mountain.

In the dense forest, a thick white fog sealed off the opening. It was a powerful restriction that seemed to segregate the mountain from everything else.

During noon, the white fog slowly dispersed and a passageway could be seen.

“When the 9 Extremes Mountain was discovered, it resulted in a calamity. It caused the demise of an ancient kingdom…”

Xing Yunzi stroked his beard and continued, “It’s such a shame that its restrictions have lived for thousands of years and have never been broken before. Especially with The Ultimate Segregation array, once you enter the mountain, not only would your elemental energy be isolated, even your dream elemental energy would be isolated! You must be careful!”

Behind him were Fang Yuan, Zhou Tian and a dream master also at the 4th Tier of Illusionary Divine called Peng Xuan. Peng Xuan was very ethereal as he held a horsetail whisk in his hand and was donned in an airy green robe.

No matter what realm or world was it, power decided a person’s standing.

Xing Yunzi was leading them and behind him were the three 4th Tier Illusionary Divine dream masters. Further behind them were the other Illusionary Divine dream masters. For those like Li Bai, they could only stand the furthest away and listen to the orders quietly.

Peng Xuan smiled and said, “Rest assured, Sir… we are well aware of the dangers of 9 Extremes Mountain. This is why we brought along a few strong men to use!”

As 9 Extremes Mountain was segregated from the outside, dream masters and spiritual knights would not be able to use their techniques freely. Hence, they could only rely on their martial artists as they would be the least restraint.

Fang Yuan looked around and saw numerous submissive looking powerful martial artists as expected. Fang Yuan could not help but to silently judge.

There were no True Divines amongst them which was very normal.

True Divine martial artists had already forged their Divine Body and were not bound by their flesh. They also have extremely powerful divine techniques. If they pledged loyalty to Da Qian, they would get to enjoy a rich and wealthy life, why would they degrade themselves down here?

Only powerful beings at the Prominent Divine stage could possibly have True Divines as slaves under them. But this was definitely not the case for these dream masters here.

“Fang Yuan….. You don’t have anyone to order about, do you want me to lend you two?”

Zhou Tian walked forward and spoke in a scornful way.

“No need!”

Fang Yuan took a glance at those behind Zhou Tian and saw a few strong men with bronze skin and divine light shining from them. They were definitely Wu Zongs at the 5th or 6th Meridian!

Such loyal subordinates had to follow their masters closely even in life and death situations. They must be groomed from young and slowly influenced which Fang Yuan would not be able to.

However, he did not felt deprived and instead clenched his fists and smiled inside his heart secretly.

Although dream masters could also refine their body, not many could endure the pain from it. Also, they would not even be comparable to Fang Yuan’s 10th Refining Body, what about his current powerful body? Hehe…

“Good, let’s go!”

Xing Yunzi spoke no further and ordered two strong men to protect him on his left and right side as he stepped into 9 Extremes Mountain.

“Rumble!”

Fang Yuan and the rest followed behind immediately and felt as though they crossed a layer of the boundary of the spiritual territory.

Their expressions change at once!

“Indeed, there is a layer of restriction that suppresses us. The channel in which I absorb dream elemental force has been isolated, wait, no! I can’t say its fully isolated, it is just restricted, like it used to be like a large river and now it is like a small stream. The elemental force which I have already accumulated is not affected. Is this The Ultimate Segregation?”

Anyone who cultivates would utilise magical energy!

Magical energy would combine with the person’s’ own mental strength, which would allow them to absorb elemental force from the surroundings to improve their body and hence, form divine techniques.

This was the case for spiritual knights! Dream masters too!

Just that the elemental force dream masters absorb were dream energy from a higher dimension, which is the dream elemental force. Dream elemental force had numerous powerful uses and could suppress everything!

Thus, to become a dream master, there would be a higher requirement for one’s magical energy. Not everyone could become a dream master and those who could are gifted!

In Da Qian, the most talented and intelligent ones were dream masters! After dream masters, it was the spiritual array masters, the medicine master, the spiritual knights, the martial artists, et cetera!

Furthermore, there would be no problems absorbing dream elemental force in other worlds.

However, this was not the case in 9 Extremes Mountain!

“In this mountain, once dream elemental force is depleted, it would be extremely difficult to replenish it! Hence, refrain from using spells! Have a sufficient supply!”

Xing Yunzi voice could be heard by the whole group.

“Elemental energy from the surroundings have been reduced by 99% too, there’s practically nothing left… The martial artists are still fine as even if elemental force was hard to recover, they still have their powerful bodies!”

Fang Yuan glanced around a saw terrified expressions on most of the dream masters’ faces.

“This is not even a situation where all their powers are isolated, they can still slightly use them….” Fang Yuan thought.

Fang Yuan could not help but sigh as he thought, “Dream masters can actualised divine techniques, but in reality, these were all gifted by the heavens from the world with the natural source…… The Ultimate Segregation array is a good point that proves this. Unless a dream master cultivates until he does not require forces outside him, he would remain affected!!!”

By not requiring outside forces, it meant that one’s own body contained everlasting powers. Even Sages could not achieve that!

After all, even their hollows needed to be rooted in a world to grow!

“Thankfully, other than inside 9 Extremes Mountain, no one else in Da Qian could cast such a powerful The Ultimate Segregation array. Else… martial arts would prosper in this world!”

Fang Yuan looked at the two martial artists in front of him.

These Wu Zongs were merely slaves in their dream masters eyes and were derogatorily called “strong men”. There were also different levels of Wu Zongs amongst them.

For example, Zhou Tian’s Wu Zongs were around 5th to 6th Meridian and so were Peng Xuan’s. Whereas, dream masters behind them only had normal or average Wu Zongs and some were even alone as they had none.

The two Wu Zongs beside Xing Yunzi were at least at the 7th Meridian and it could be felt as though they were about to forget their martial artist Divine Body!

Once they forge it successfully, they would be a True Divine martial artist and their status would rise exponentially! Even Xing Yunzi would not be able to order them around.

“Of course… martial arts is easy at the start and tough at the end. Even with the 12 Golden Gates, Wu Zongs who could go beyond the 7th Meridian were extremely rare. Even amongst 100 qualified Wu Zongs, there might not even be one who can successfully forge the Divine Body.” Fang Yuan thought.

Fang Yuan secretly sized up the two Wu Zongs beside Xing Yunzi. They appeared to be middle-aged but their bodies had a waning aura, it was evident that they were not young anymore. They might even have consumed pills that extended their life.

Martial arts cultivation was extremely tough, it required one to repeatedly exhaust his own body’s potential and even abuse their body for short-sighted gains. Even if the Wu Zongs were nourished with elemental force, they also had to break through their Meridian and hence, their vitals would be damaged and their lifespan would be much shorter than spiritual knights and dream masters.

Unless they forged the martial arts Divine Body, transformed into this new body and thus cleansed their body, else, their lifespan would remain as short.

Except, such a leap was extraordinarily difficult, not many people could pass it.

“This current mission does not require us to do much, we just have to build a stronghold at the periphery of 9 Extremes Mountain and then guard it!”

Fang Yuan pondered about the current mission.

In actual fact, if there was no interference from the royalties of Da Qian and the Hidden Dragon Guards, they only had to face the dangers of the mountain itself which were relatively simple as of now.

The forests were abundantly dense and the fog was especially thick. The entire group was silent and only the shuffling of feet could be heard.

“So quiet! No… it’s too quiet, I am afraid there’s something wrong!”

Immediately, Xing Yunzi’s yell could be heard from in front, “We have a situation on our hands!”

“Woosh!”

Numerous green arrow-like shadows appeared from all sides of the surroundings.

Upon closer look, there were numerous small snakes spitting out their red tongues that were hiding inside the thick fog. They were perfectly blended in the background before they appeared and even Illusionary Divine dream masters did not detect them with their spiritual will. As they suddenly surfaced, it was as though thousands of arrows were suddenly launched at once!

“Puff!”

One of the dream masters who stood further away did not manage to evade fast enough. A layer of protective fluorescent armour appeared over his body but blood splurged out as the green shadow penetrated right through it with no signs of it slowing down!

“Elemental Piercing Snake? This kind of snake is extremely fast and its body is like metal and can pierce through elemental defence! Be careful!”

Peng Xuan immediately warned everyone. He then shook his whisk and thousands of silver lines appeared and sliced the green snake at once which caused droplets of blood to spew everywhere.

After all, it was just a normal ferocious animal that launched a surprise attack, else mediocre dream masters would be able to manage it too.

“Kill!”

The strong men finally reacted and whipped out their weapons to fight and protect the dream masters.

Even so, a few shrieks could be heard as some dream masters were still attacked.

“Hiss! Hiss!”

Suddenly, a huge hole was torn from the ground. A green light emerged from it which charged towards Fang Yuan at the speed of light!
