Carefree Path of Dreams

Panda Novel

Fang Yuan really envied the concealment technique of Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang.

It had been highly risky for him to sneak into Heavenly Court. Even the name of Lord Bright Jade could only guarantee at most a thirty percent chance of success.

But this woman disguised herself as a Heavenly Consort and managed to deceive the Celestial Thearch, who was the closest to her. If he could learn such an incredible concealment technique, he would be much more likely to succeed.

“You have a sharp eye! However, even with my concealment technique, there’s only a thirty percent chance of deceiving the Celestial Thearch.”

The Heavenly Consort let out a bitter laughter. “This Thearch has been busy guarding the heart of the Massive Heavenly Cycle Stellar Array ever since he appeared on the Mental Demon Battlefield. He hasn’t slept with any consorts, and I only see him occasionally. Even if you’ve deceived the Divine Reflection Mirror at the Gate of Heaven, you still need to be examined in the Massive Heavenly Cycle Stellar Array before entering the Mental Demon Battlefield. This array is designed to guard against existences like us. The Celestial Thearch directly examines the Essence Soul’s natural source, and it’s almost impossible to pass!”

“Thirty percent? That’s enough!”

Fang Yuan nodded. He had thirty percent confidence initially, and the chance of success would exceed fifty percent with the help of this ingenious concealment technique. It would be a good bet!

“Since that’s the case, I’ll teach you the Major Chiliocosm Illusion Art!”

The Heavenly Consort had no other choice.

She had overestimated the power of the mind-controlling token and passed Fang Yuan the key to removing the seal, only to let him take it away.

It was impossible to obtain another Black Source Pearl, so she had to cooperate with Fang Yuan.

The cultivation techniques of this Heavenly Consort are unfathomable, and she wants to save someone sealed in the Mental Demon Battlefield… Perhaps it’s her real body!

Fang Yuan continued learning the Major Chiliocosm Illusion Art and yet was shocked inside at the same time.

“The Major Chiliocosm can transform into thousands of illusions. Once you master the highest stage of the Major Chiliocosm Illusion Art, you’d be able to trick even the Divine Dao Emperor…” Yun Xiang explained in detail, but felt regretful inside. Who’d have thought this God was a being from the Mental Demon Realm in disguise? Damn it!

She had originally wanted to let a native sneak in so that she would be safe, but Fang Yuan took the spot and she had to cooperate with him despite the increased risk.

“I see. The Major Chiliocosm Illusion Art has three realms: Minor Chiliocosm, Medium Chiliocosm, and Major Chiliocosm!”

Fang Yuan carefully savored the art and acquired a lot of information. Suddenly, he transformed into the figure of Yun Xiang, every movement identical to her’s.

“The Minor Chiliocosm Illusion Art allows you to disguise yourself as anyone at the same level as you, simulating every detail in habit and movement! The Medium Chiliocosm Illusion Art enables you to disguise your Essence Soul and so on… As for the masters of the Major Chiliocosm Illusion Art, they can pretend to be Gods and demons at will, without any risk of suspicion,” Fang Yuan said in a voice identical to Yun Xiang’s.

“The Minor Chiliocosm? Have you learned this art before?”

Yun Xiang was astonished by Fang Yuan, but shook her head afterwards. “It’s not possible. This magical power belongs to me and me alone, and I’ve never taught it to anyone before! Your talent is indeed astonishing! At this pace, you can probably become a Medium Chiliocosm Illusion God straightaway.”

She was absolutely not worried that Fang Yuan would break his promise.

After all, both of them were spies from the Mental Demon Realm. Neither would end up well if either of their true identities was exposed.

Furthermore, it was Fang Yuan risking his life going through the Massive Heavenly Cycle Stellar Array, and she would still have a chance to escape if anything went wrong.

“Very good. I’ll seclude this palace. You have seven days to advance to the Medium Chiliocosm realm.” Yun Xiang gazed at Fang Yuan. “Even with me negotiating, you’ll still have to enter the Mental Demon Battlefield after seven days. You can’t blame me if your identity is revealed then!”

“Of course!” Fang Yuan agreed resolutely. As soon as the palace gates closed, he arranged a number of restrictions to completely separate him from the palace.

“Never would have expected that Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang is a spy from the Mental Demon Realm!”

After finishing with the restrictions, he exhaled a long breath and started to think carefully. “The possibility of me sneaking into the Mental Demon Battlefield increases significantly with her assistance, but I have no idea about the being she asked me to release!”

In fact, a skilled being from the Mental Demon Realm was doubtlessly a treasure to Fang Yuan currently.

He really wanted to restrain this woman and interrogate her for more information about the Mental Demon Realm and higher-level cultivation techniques.

“Too bad no one can be certain of her real intrinsic quality as long as she wishes to conceal herself with the illusion arts.” Fang Yuan shook his head. “On the other hand… my future realm as a Dream Master will depend on myself!”

While the Dream Masters of the Da Qian World were initially part of the Mental Demon Realm, they had embarked on a completely different Dao path and had endless possibilities. Even the higher beings in the Mental Demon Realm wanted to take over their cultivation techniques, which only implied their great future potential.

“The Dao of Dream Master begins with entering dreams and building dreams. Next, they pass through the gates of consolidating Illusionary Divine and then become Prominent Divine Creators!”

When the Dream Masters of Da Qian became Creators, they reached the realm of Sages, which was already the peak.

At that stage, they were equivalent to Heaven Immortals and Marquises in the Spiritual Realm!

But Fang Yuan had made use of origin power to forcibly break through the barrier of Creators, refining himself into the Body of Origin Power. This was comparable to the Ancient Gods, Golden Immortals, and other higher beings in this realm.

“What realm will follow the Body of Origin Power? The Dao of Dream Master is the Dao of Creation. What did the being who deprived the Dream Master Dao path comprehend in the end?”

A multitude of questions drove Fang Yuan into a deeper level of meditation.

After a long time, he sensed an abnormal movement from the Black Source Pearl and snapped out of his thoughts. “I must deduce the future Dao path and cultivation techniques of Dream Masters by integrating the strengths of both the Spiritual Realm and the Mental Demon Realm. But what I need to do right now is to reach the Medium Chiliocosm realm, sneak into the Mental Demon Battlefield, and devour the origin power there!”

Origin power was a manifestation of the Mental Demon Realm’s natural source.

Common Heaven Immortals might not even be qualified to refine origin power.

But Fang Yuan had gained sufficient experience in the lower realms and had now advanced to an entirely new realm. Thus, it was not that troublesome for him to refine it.

“With sufficient strength, I can surely break through using brute force!”

He thought silently and observed his sea of consciousness.

A black, spherical pearl was whizzing all around his sea of consciousness. Origin power had split into many streams of power and whistled as they scrambled for the pearl just like dragons.

“It seems that this pearl is related to origin power and beneficial to my cultivation. Perhaps this is a precious treasure originating from the Mental Demon natural source?”

Fang Yuan looked at it for a while. “I can even speed up the refining of origin power with its assistance. The Heavenly Consort definitely won’t let me take away such a treasure so easily.”

Of course, since this pearl was key to removing the seal, she had to pretend to be generous.

But as soon as that being was released, she would display her true intentions.

“Speaking of trust… I don’t trust this woman and she similarly won’t completely trust me. Thus, I’m afraid that she’ll create a situation that forces me to remove that seal on the Mental Demon Battlefield… For instance, my identity might be leaked, making me be persecuted?”

Fang Yuan put himself in her shoes and was immediately shocked by the many possible methods that could prevent him from escaping.

“But it’s too late to regret. I have to go ahead!”

…

Seven days later, the gates of the palace opened, revealing the figure of Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang. “Lord Mountain River, please!”

“Thank you, Your Highness. I’ll return the favor in the future!”

Fang Yuan sneered at the sight of Yun Xiang and the two maids beside her.

He had comprehended the essence of the illusion arts in these seven days and discovered its similarity with the Dao of Dream Master. Thus, he had quickly progressed to the stage of Medium Chiliocosm.

This was by no means any cultivation techniques, but merely an auxiliary skill.

Actually, Fang Yuan had thought about asking the Heavenly Consort for a few Mental Demon cultivation techniques, but in that case, he would have to expose too much information about himself.

It would be horrible if this woman associated him with the lower realms.

Furthermore, fundamental cultivation techniques were much more important than auxiliary skills, especially for realms above Golden Immortal. Fang Yuan did not believe that this woman would willingly pass such techniques to him without playing any tricks.

“Very good… As expected, you completed cultivating the Medium Chiliocosm Illusion Arts.”

With an inscrutable tone, Yun Xiang whispered softly into Fang Yuan’s ears, “I’ve stopped Duke East Woods from harming you quite a few times. Be careful.”

She still appeared calm and majestic. “Since you’ve finished your seclusion, follow me to the Stellar Array. That group of Ancient Gods is running out of patience!”

“Okay!”

Fang Yuan shook his robe. Using his magic as a God, he cleaned up his clothes with a thought.

“The existence I want to release is right in the Bottomless Blood Abyss at the center of the Mental Demon Battlefield… The method of removing the seal is…”

Along the way, Yun Xiang repeated all the details and made numerous promises. Fang Yuan did not give a damn.

Just before they left the Heavenly Court, an Ancient God in a long robe and tall crown walked out from a corner. “Consort Xiang, please wait a moment!”

“Oh? What’s the matter?” Yun Xiang gave the God a cold glance.

“Nothing. I just came to meet Lord Mountain River after hearing that he was done cultivating.”

Duke East Woods walked forward slowly and mechanically. “So you’re Lord Mountain River, Fang Yuan?”

“Yes, I am. Greetings, God!” Fang Yuan stepped out and cupped his hands.

“It’s fine. The Mental Demon Battlefield is a place of the Divine Dao under the protection of the heavens. You must work diligently there!”

Duke East Woods gave some encouragement and then waved his hand.

This God… somehow gained a connection with Consort Xiang… but that won’t help. He got into too much trouble in the lower realm, and even Consort Xiang can’t protect him from the Immortal Dao’s prosecution. He’ll have to be sent to the Mental Demon Battlefield.

Duke East Woods gazed coldly at Fang Yuan’s back.

There were no grudges between Fang Yuan and him, but he was dissatisfied by how Fang Yuan managed to resolve the difficult situations created by him every time.

Ancient Gods were as superior as heaven. Someone who refused to die at heaven’s inclination had to be guilty and deserved punishment!
