Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2977 1627: The Incredible Origin_2

Given that it's a person's dreamscape, it's logical that the Light Elves possess no defenses. As long as the dream's master permits it, everyone else is merely a shadowy embellishment.

This also accounts for why our group's arrival did not startle the other Light Elves. We had, after all, encountered the master of the dream initially.

Furthermore, the vacant expressions of the Elf Villagers and the abrupt darkness are undeniably consequences of this being the Dream Space.

If one attempts to view the dreamscape through the lens of real space, it would inevitably appear peculiar and surreal.

"So, does this imply that Anna is the master of this dream? And that both the Bright Elf Anna and the Dark Elf Anna are, in essence, the same person, Anna herself?"

Leo Ray gently stroked his chin, swiftly grasping the core of the situation.

It was no wonder Dark Elf Anna could effortlessly nullify my attacks and construct an inescapable prison, exuding invincibility as the dream's sovereign.

"Precisely, Your Excellency's deduction is accurate. The objective is to locate the Forbidden Land, as it serves as the dream's nucleus. Destroy that place, and this dream concludes. There is no alternative!"

The peculiar Stone Spirit nodded vigorously, stating to Leo Ray, "Follow me, I know the location of the Forbidden Land!"

"Unfortunately, none of you are going anywhere!"

A voice, both distorted and sharp, echoed through the air. Dark Elf Anna materialized abruptly nearby, accompanied by a horde of Dark Elf enforcers, resembling a pack of wolves with eyes burning red.

Judging by the immense aura emanating from them, at least a hundred individuals at the half-step seventh-order cultivation level were closing in.

"Even within the Dream Space, the sheer number of these half-step seventh-order powerhouses is excessive, wouldn't you agree?"

Xiao Jing's brow furrowed deeply, her expression taut with apprehension. "There's simply no path for evasion!"

"Therefore, if the Human Majesty agrees to remain with me, all will be well."

Dark Elf Anna's smile widened into a more sinister grin as she began to laugh maniacally. "Otherwise, do not hold me responsible for any harsh measures. Rest assured, I shall not inflict harm upon you!"

As Dark Elf Anna concluded her statement, the Dark Elf enforcers surged forward like a swarm of locusts, completely blocking any possibility of escape for our group.

Considering the disparity in strength, our chances of victory were clearly nonexistent.

"You deranged elf, you've crossed a line. Do not forget that this is also my domain!"

The peculiar Stone Spirit's freckled, sun-kissed face contorted with a flash of anger. With a soft snort, she declared, "Human Majesty still needs to pass my trial. How can you possibly impede them here?"

With that declaration, the peculiar Stone Spirit conjured numerous colossal giants, each standing ten meters tall, their massive axes radiating martial energy—identical to those we had begun to subdue.

In an instant, the combined might of dozens of half-step seventh-order giants created an overwhelming presence, akin to a piercing rainbow. Although their overall strength paled in comparison, their towering stature and colossal axes effectively held all the advancing Dark Elf villagers at bay.

"Your Excellency, we have respected each other's boundaries for all these years. Now that you have disrupted the established order, do not expect me to show any leniency!"

Dark Elf Anna's long tresses billowed as if caught in a gale, scattering through the air. Her extreme fury was palpable.

With a sweeping gesture of her hand, countless meteors, trailing streaks of ferocious fire, plunged from the heavens, reducing the giants to fragments.

It was entirely understandable. While the peculiar Stone Spirit possessed the authority to summon giants within the "Gate," this dreamscape ultimately belonged to Anna, its true sovereign.

"I have long anticipated your lunatic elf tactics!"

The peculiar Stone Spirit refused to be outdone. With a mere thought, dozens more giants materialized.

However, this time, the giants erupted from the very ground, scattering the Dark Elf villagers and forging an escape route for our group.

"Follow me, Your Excellency!"

The peculiar Stone Spirit seized Leo Ray's arm and vanished in an instant. Meanwhile, Sheila and the others reverted to their [Divine Stone] forms and nestled securely within Leo Ray's embrace.

"That infuriating giant leader is driving me to madness!"

Observing the Stone Spirit rapidly escorting Leo Ray and the others away, Dark Elf Anna, her countenance twisted in rage, violently stomped her foot, cracking the very ground and nearly causing the earth to tremble.

Upon halting, Leo Ray found himself situated within the hall of the elf village chief, the very location where the welcoming banquet had initially transpired.

"What are we doing here? The Forbidden Land isn't located in this room, is it?"

Xiao Jing reappeared, voicing the very question echoing in Leo Ray's mind.

"Certainly not. This is the deep dream, also the domain of the mad elf. The Forbidden Land resides within the shallow dream. Naturally, we must first return to the shallow dream."

The peculiar Stone Spirit slightly arched her eyebrows, providing the explanation.

"So, the sudden onset of darkness signifies a transition between dreams?"

Leo Ray tilted his head, his thoughts drifting, "So, does this imply Fei'er and the others aren't truly bewitched, but rather ensnared within separate dream layers? And those faint presences I sensed were merely phantoms?"

"As expected of Your Excellency! Indeed, your companions are presently caught in distinct dream strata, unable to break free. But rest assured, while that lunatic elf is exceptionally vexing, she has refrained from any direct action, her primary focus remaining solely on you, Your Excellency."

The peculiar Stone Spirit scurried back and forth beneath the lavishly laid dining table, her eyes sparkling with discovery. "I've located the trigger to ascend back to the superficial layer!"

With a press of a hidden mechanism under the table, the surrounding darkness instantly dissipated, replaced by the radiant glow of the sun once more.

"It was akin to flipping a light switch; the entire expanse above felt like an immense lampshade."

Witnessing this phenomenon, Leo Ray and the others couldn't help but marvel. However, understanding this to be the Dream Space, where conventional logic holds no sway, made the spectacle less surprising.

"Now, we can proceed to seek out the Forbidden Land!"

The enigmatic Stone Spirit acknowledged Leo Ray with a nod, and the group promptly took to the skies, their destination the heart of the village.

Before long, they found themselves on the threshold of the Forbidden Land.

The structure, remarkably resembling a Temple, still stood, its imposing gates veiled by the shimmering luminescence of a magical ward.

Yet, in stark contrast to its previous state, this magical ward appeared significantly more robust, radiating an aura of unyielding majesty.

Observing this, Leo Ray and his companions couldn't suppress a frown; it became apparent that breaching the barrier would not be a simple endeavor.

"Heh heh, I'm quite familiar with this type of restriction, leave it to me! I'm also immensely curious about what secrets lie within!"

The peculiar Stone Spirit smote her chest plate and strode directly towards the entrance of the Forbidden Land.

Placing her palm flat against the luminous portal, she uttered a series of arcane syllables. A vibrant, violet magical energy erupted outward, causing both the gate and the encompassing magical ward to tremble violently.

As the tremors escalated, the magical ward sealing the gate fractured audibly with a series of sharp cracks, and the previously sealed gates creaked open.

"I had initially assumed this Stone Spirit lass was merely a physically oriented powerhouse, but it now appears she possesses formidable magical prowess as well."

Without further contemplation upon witnessing this, Leo Ray, alongside the Stone Spirits, surged forward into the opening.

Upon crossing the threshold into the Forbidden Land, Leo Ray and his companions found their eyes wide with utter astonishment.

"I never would have imagined the Forbidden Land would present such an appearance."

Amidst his surprise, Leo Ray drew a deep breath and swiftly moved towards the core of the Forbidden Land.
