Light Fortress Chapter 2020 - 61: [Dream of Reality] _3
Previously on Light Fortress...
Li Chen was not mistaken.
This strand of silvery brilliance does indeed resemble Gu Shen’s Chi Huo.
Because this is exactly Gu Xiaoman imitating Gu Shen’s Chi Huo, and through it, deriving the Fourth-order Domain 「Real Dream」. When the domain is released, 「Dissolving Dream」 transforms into an elemental form similar to Chi Huo and then disperses... Four years ago, she used 「Real Dream」 to envelop herself in a coffin, thus avoiding the first wave of reckoning from the Source Tower.
At this moment.
The 「Real Dream」 domain begins to spread.
Gray Dragon’s pupils glimmered with a touch of spiritual light. It did not dodge but accepted the enveloping of the 「Real Dream」 domain, adjusting its stance, preparing to fight!
Since stepping into the Awakening Era, the number of S-level ability users across the Five Continents has not increased much, remaining as rare as phoenix feathers.
S-level abilities are so scarce because the Transcendent must bear not only the "halo" brought by strong abilities but also the burden required to wield them.
Take 「Judge」 for example, once the 「Judge」 domain expands, as long as the master of the domain wills it, low-order Extraordinary Creatures enveloped by the domain would be slain instantly!
But no ability is perfect.
「Judge」 has its shortcomings; slaying Extraordinary Creatures requires consuming Spirit. If the domain master’s spiritual power is insufficient to support it, the domain will shrink.
The more powerful the ability, the stronger the force consumed.
This principle applies equally to 「Dissolving Dream」.
The determinants of the upper limit of the Extraordinary Domain are often twofold: one is the Transcendent’s spiritual intensity, and the other is the amount of Source they can wield.
Once Gu Xiaoman’s 「Dissolving Dream」 is cast, she stands virtually invincible. She can make herself the center, transforming objects she touches, pulling them into the 「Annihilation Dream Zone」 that lies between reality and illusion!
Yet, the larger the 「Dissolving Dream」 domain, and the longer it lasts, the more Source and Spirit are consumed!
Gray Dragon’s change in gaze signifies the presence of a second spirit within its body... Today’s Gu Castle battle is Gu Xiaoman’s moment to validate her strength, and her opponent is not only the Gray Dragon which evolved to the Sealing Title Battle Power level but also Deep Sea, who controls the entire Traveler Tribe and suppresses the rhythm of war!
Gu Xiaoman pointed two fingers at the Gray Dragon floating in the air in front of her, softly saying, "Are you ready?"
The Gray Dragon, covered in iron thorns, had a thread of indifference flash through its cold pupils.
Staring intently at the little bud of the human race before it, under the supreme will commanding within the Divine Sea, it began to flap its iron wings, attempting to ascend into the sky.
But in the very next moment...
Gu Xiaoman pressed down with her two fingers.
A strong sense of detachment rose in the Gray Dragon’s heart!
Suddenly, the Gray Dragon plummeted to the ground, crashing into the Snowfield. Great fear arose in its heart as it jerkily turned its head, discovering that the "massive iron wings" growing on its back had vanished!?
Then, the next moment, Gu Xiaoman gently lifted her two fingers.
The iron thorns on its body flew off like flower thorns!
"???"
In Gray Dragon’s Heart Lake rose an intense sense of absurdity. Due to the strong environmental stimuli, it began to rapidly "evolve," growing iron armor, gills, and petrified skin. But Gu Xiaoman simply walked calmly, gradually approaching, lifting her fingers lightly as if pressing the strings of a zither, sometimes picking up, sometimes sweeping horizontally, and the "armor" enveloping it piece by piece flew off!
Ultimately, only a bare "self" remained.
Finally standing before the Gray Dragon, Gu Xiaoman looked down at the formerly proud and majestic Extraordinary Life as if gazing at a lowly grass.
She whispered, "This is the power of 「Dissolving Dream」... Did you see clearly?"
This sentence was not said to the Gray Dragon.
But to Deep Sea.
