Carefree Path of Dreams

Shadows flickered about.

Fang Yuan knew that today was the first time he had seen so many powerful beings come together.

The final showdown between the two sides had seen the best of the best pitting against one another. Among the Imperial Court, True Elementals and True Divines gathered and shouted as they advanced.

In such a war, normal soldiers were expendable.

Even Shi Longtu himself could only flee with embarrassment and couldn’t care less about his own army.

"Rumble!"

Fists and palms were flying about, and so were spiritual spells and dream soldiers... Everyone displayed their powers beneath the wall of the Jade Capital and in no time, the already tattered wall became even more damaged.

At this stage, the forces of the Imperial Court were continuously retreating, giving up more and more land to the powerful beings to fight with each other.

The soldiers who were unable to escape from the battlefield, be it from Da Qian or from the allied forces all died a gruesome death and had no way to escape.

It was from this chaos which Fang Yuan could detect a murderous intent coming for him from somewhere.

This murderous intent was extremely strong, like the sun rays coming from a huge sun. If anyone else were to be targeted, he would have no chance of escaping alive.

"Is a True Divine trying to ambush me?"

Fang Yuan leapt up and quickly retreated. In an instant, he had already moved 35 yards backwards.

"Hmph! As a True Divine, how can you allow yourself to be the lackeys of dream masters!"

"You deserve to die!"

Two spiritual wills were heard in Fang Yuan’s consciousness.

From afar, two majestic looking silhouettes appeared. They were both True Divines.

Seeing that their ambush had failed, they quickly adapted and started to strike towards Fang Yuan in quick succession.

This was similar to if a dream master were to encounter another dream master from the Hidden Dragon Guards. They would treat the latter as a traitor. Therefore, the True Divines and True Elementals of the Imperial Court would treat Fang Yuan as a traitor since he was with the allied forces.

Traitors were always more hated than normal enemies and this was the perfect representation.

The Imperial Court was the base of martial arts and spiritual spells. It was no surprise when these two True Divines had a murderous intent towards Fang Yuan whom they assume to have defected from the Imperial Court.

"The information about me in the Imperial Court should only include that I am a dream master and a talented martial artist, my cultivation as a dream master is at the 4th or 5th Tier of the Illusionary Divine stage and that I have just achieved a breakthrough to become a True Divine. I am the perfect weak person for them to pick on..."

In a flash, Fang Yuan understood everything. "These two True Divines are combining forces to deal with me to ensure that they will be victorious. Furthermore, they can use me as an excuse to avoid the stronger enemies. They are really scheming!"

However, Fang Yuan felt pleased.

Although these two True Divines were looking to use Fang Yuan to avoid the other powerful beings, they had no idea that Fang Yuan was thinking about the same thing, which was to make use of the both of them.

In such a chaotic war, the wise ones would be those who remain a low profile.

With a sidestep, Fang Yuan attempted to escape to the sidelines of the battlefield.

"Don’t think of escaping! Today, the Lefty and Righty Ambassadors will take your life!"

The two True Divines hollered in unison as though they were up against their nemesis.

A True Divine would be extremely quick in his footsteps!

In a few moments, the 3 of them had already ran a few miles and had arrived at the sidelines.

"This place is scenic and is most suitable to be your place of burial!"

Fang Yuan examined the both of them with his hands behind his back. With a smile, he glared at the both of them who were already catching up.

"You’re overconfident!"

These two True Divines were well trained in combat. Without resting, they immediately struck their opening moves.

"Thousand Crane Claw!"

"Tiger God Searching Palm!"

The both of them bellowed. Their martial arts were not only at the peak but could also complement each other to deliver the perfect blow.

Martial arts willpower gathered from the surroundings to form the illusionary shape of a ferocious tiger and a white crane. Together with the wind, the strikes went for Fang Yuan’s weak points.

These two people were True Divines and both of them had already formed the martial artist Divine Body. However, they held back and did not reveal them. Instead, they were purely harnessing their physical strength, but it was already enough to even split mountains and oceans.

"You shall know in a moment if I am overconfident!"

Fang Yuan took in a deep breath. Similarly, he did not release his Pangu Eagle Body and only leveraged on his physical body to receive the hits. "Eagle Claw!"

"Bang! Bang!"

He struck towards the left and the right to deflect the incoming attacks. As soon as the martial arts willpower settled into Fang Yuan’s consciousness, it was destroyed in an instant. A loud gong was heard as soon as the energy of the illusionary tiger and crane landed on Fang Yuan’s body.

"Metal Body Technique?!"

Lefty and Righty Ambassador were shocked. Having such a level of cultivation in this technique meant that Fang Yuan was as skilled as those highly-skilled generals in their army.

After shock came embarrassment.

Both of them were experienced True Divines and they could not even take down a junior in a single hit. Instead, both of them were being counterattacked.

How could they accept such a fact?

"Brother, let’s go all out!"

Lefty Ambassador roared as his physical body started to expand in size. Energy started to flow on his back as he turned into a giant with the prints of a ferocious tiger on his skin.

"Alright!"

Beside him, another Divine Body was being formed. It was long like a crane from the heavens. With outstretched wings, it started to fly.

"So, it’s the Tiger and Crane Divines!"

Fang Yuan laughed as he recognised the both of them.

"30 years ago, in the South of Da Qian, there was the Divine Dragon Sect. The Sect Head, Lord Divine Dragon was a True Elemental. He had two ambassadors under his charge and another 5 lone cultivators. All of them were True Divines. However, your sect had offended the Source Seeking Sect and Lord Divine Dragon was killed. The 5 lone cultivators had surrendered to them while the both of you were missing. I see, so you guys have turned to the Imperial Court!"

"We shall avenge both our sect and our country today!"

The Tiger and Crane Divines roared and manipulated their divine bodies to attack.

"Tiger Crane Double Kill!"

The two True Divines combined forces and since they were in close proximity with each other, coupled with the fact that the two brothers had exceptional chemistry with each other, they could easily kill even a True Elemental!

"Whooo..."

Fang Yuan released a long breath and his skin started to turn into a natural violet hue.

"Whoosh!"

The spiritual aura which he exhaled was long and sharp like an arrow. Swiftly, it flew towards the two of them.

"Pangu Eagle Body!"

Fang Yuan started a chant and an empty plot of land appeared behind his back. A muscular giant started to emerge from the land.

Although Fang Yuan had already restrained himself, the divine body which he had just released was still much taller than the Tiger and Crane divine bodies on the other end. It was as though he was bullying two kids.

"Kill!"

The 3 silhouettes quickly came together and fought at a speed unable to be observed by the naked eye. As the fight progressed, space around started to warp and the ground beneath them turned into an irreversible mess.

"This is impossible! He is merely a new True Divine. How can he even keep up with us combining forces?"

In an instant, the 3 of them had already fought over a thousand times and the Tiger and Crane divine bodies started to retreat.

"This person seems to have cultivated a perfect version of martial arts and he must have only broken through after reaching his limits. This is perfection!"

Lefty Ambassador appeared pale and started to feel an indescribable sense of jealousy. "You are indeed a talented and a powerful True Divine.... Why do you want to join the dream masters?"

"We have 5 sages in the allied forces and our victory is unquestionable. It is the both of you who are confused as to which side you should choose!"

Fang Yuan laughed heartily and his heart sank as he gazed and the both of them who remained silent.

As Fang Yuan gathered his spiritual will, he could vaguely observe the 9 Heavenly Sky Net Array. Although it would be hard to imagine a fight among sages, it was almost impossible for the 5 Prominent Divine dream masters to lose this war.

Suddenly, Fang Yuan struck his hand out and the Pangu Giant behind him started to roar. With an open palm, it started to grab towards the two True Divines.

’After all, I am not looking for recognition in this war. I am only hoping that I do not offend anybody... I have already done my part to hold these two True Divines back, considering the cultivation level which I have revealed...’

After engulfing the two True Divines with his energy, Fang Yuan could still look around and observe the other fights between the other powerful beings.

The situation now was tensed.

However, something was not right!

’How could the Imperial Court gather so many powerful beings? Why are all the powerful beings so loyal to the Imperial Court?’

Fang Yuan felt that all of these were unbelievable. ’Everyone can see that as soon as the 5 Prominent Divine stage dream masters win the fight in the battlefield in outer space, even if the other powerful beings win here, their victories would not matter.’

Although Da Qian had dream masters, they had more True Divines and True Elementals and these martial artists and spiritual knights were willing to put their lives on the line. Not only were they able to resist against so many 7th Tier Illusionary Divine dream masters, they had slowly gained the upper hand and everything was unbelievable.

...

On another battlefield, Elder Black Water had black water gushing about him. As the black water flowed, it corroded everything in its path.

"3,000 gallons of black water shall corrode everything!’"

"Whoosh!"

From the black water, a few thick Xuan Snakes appeared. Sticking out their tongue, they targeted a spiritual knight and two other True Divines within. It was as though a spider had trapped its prey in its spiderweb and was about to slowly enjoy consuming it.

"How dare you 3 servants dare to fight against your master?"

Elder Black Water controlled the black water towards the 3 of them and appeared satisfied. "Or would you prefer to be corroded by my Black Water Array?"

"Let’s give it our all!"

The two True Divines shrieked as they walked on the black water. They were surrounded by a dense layer of elemental force.

"Hiss! Hiss!"

Two Xuan Snakes appeared and blocked their path.

"Kill it!"

"Buzz! Buzz!"

The two True Divine immediately revealed their divine bodies. With a ferocious punch, they smashed the snakes’ head and continued walking. They were making their way towards Elder Black Water!

As they ran, white smoke started to form beneath their legs. Thick layers of elemental forces started to corrode and even their feet were beginning to bleed. The black water started to cover them and corroded through their flesh, revealing parts of their bone.

"How dare you kill my Black Water Xuan Snakes!"

Elder Black Water was infuriated as he unleashed a tsunami. "Even if you manage to find our the weakness of my array, I can alter it immediately to kill the both of you in an instant!"

Before Elder Black Water could alter the array, a silhouette appeared behind him and a spiritual will entered his consciousness. "Calm!"

Elder Black Water froze as he glared at the silhouette approaching him with a sharp knife. He appeared stunned for a moment before his head exploded and blood spewed everywhere.

"Whoosh!"

At the side, a Black Water Xuan Snake appeared. Its forehead started to split, revealing Elder Black Water’s face. "This is the Head of Hidden Dragon Guards’ bodyguard... Shadow Dragon Guard?!"

The ambush had gone undetected. Fortunately, Elder Black Water had prepared a few bodies for himself and with some time, he would be able to restore his powers.

"Kill!"

At this moment, the True Divines had let loose and came before the black snake. With their bloodshot eyes, they hollered in unison. "Die!"

"Roar! Roar!"

As the two divine bodies sandwiched the snake in their palms, a gruesome explosion happened. A soul emerged from the snake which was subsequently stabbed by Shadow Dragon Guard before dissipating.

The 7th Tier Illusionary Divine dream master of the Realm Alliance, Elder Black Water, was dead!
