Free Web NovelChapter 1929: Chapter 1925: Lu Xiaoman’s Dream
Li Zhaojun and Min Shang are still looking for a way to leave the place where they are trapped. In this world, time passes very slowly, and both can continue to cultivate.
But the power they cultivate is no longer limited to the surrounding forces, there is a peculiar energy source, the location of which they do not know. They are using all their efforts to try to complete their cultivation. The situation before them is a great challenge for both, even with Li Zhaojun’s encouragement, Min Shang feels she can no longer hold on.
On Earth, Ye Fan still cannot perceive Li Zhaojun and Min Shang’s location. Ye Fan continues his solitary cultivation, and after finishing, he went to check on Mo Xiaoyan, who has still not woken up.
"Ye Fan, what’s wrong with Xiaoyan? She doesn’t seem to be in pain, but looking at her is really distressing. Can you find a way to wake her up?" Lu Xiaoman looked very upset, standing beside Ye Fan, she spoke in a gentle tone.
Ye Fan slightly shook his head and said, "Xiaoyan’s condition these past few days is much better than before. For now, I haven’t found a way to wake her up. There are too many matters at present, perhaps the skies’ tribulation is about to arrive. What exactly the tribulation is, I’m unsure, but I suppose before it completely arrives, I should be able to find a way to wake her."
Lu Xiaoman nodded, her eyes filled with even greater regret. She wished Ye Fan could help her, but now it seems there are matters beyond Ye Fan’s control.
"Ye Fan, do you have any news about Mr. Li’s whereabouts?" Lu Xiaoman suddenly asked.
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "I’m searching as well, but there’s no information yet, so you needn’t worry too much."
Lu Xiaoman said, "I don’t know why, but recently I’ve kept dreaming about a very oppressive space. Oftentimes, I’m just sitting there, and suddenly I’m in this dream realm. It seems that I can hear Mr. Li calling out your name in the dream."
"Hmm?" This news startled Ye Fan, he never thought there might be something hidden within Lu Xiaoman, but it now seems that Lu Xiaoman has some secrets in her beyond just cultivation.
"I’m not trying to deceive you or anything, Ye Fan, you must believe me. I truly feel like I’ve entered a closed-off space. I don’t know where this space is, each time I dream, I can feel Mr. Li calling your name. It seems there’s a girl beside her, her voice is very pleasant, but as to who she is, I can’t say." Lu Xiaoman explained.
Ye Fan frowned and said, "The person you’re talking about should be Min Shang beside me. She disappeared alongside Zhaojun. But since you can dream of this, I believe... there should be some kind of connection within your heart related to them, or a connection with some kind of power."
"Ye Fan, what kind of connection is that, do you know?" Lu Xiaoman asked nervously.
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "If I knew, it wouldn’t be so troubling. Previously, I couldn’t find any traces of Zhaojun and Min Shang. Since you say you might enter this dream realm, perhaps I should stay, try assisting you in entering the dream realm to see the connection you have with it, and try to search for clues, alright?"
"But..." Lu Xiaoman seemed somewhat hesitant and said, "I don’t know how to enter this dream realm, is that possible?"
Ye Fan nodded and said, "No worries, trust me, I can find an excellent way to help you enter the dream realm, without causing you much pain. As long as I understand the source of the dream, and can perceive things beyond it, that’s enough, trust I can assist you."
"Alright, Ye Fan. I completely trust you, as long as I feel you’re beside me, that’s enough." Lu Xiaoman held Ye Fan’s hand, her grip was firm, even showing great attachment to Ye Fan.
...
...
In order to find Li Zhaojun’s whereabouts, Ye Fan could only try to find clues from Lu Xiaoman.
Lu Xiaoman sat down, attempting to clear her mind of all thoughts to quickly enter the dream realm, yet for her, it wasn’t easy. After much time, she found herself unable to get into rhythm and eventually opened her eyes, saying, "Ye Fan, I feel like I can’t fall asleep."
"Let me help you." Ye Fan started employing some methods to hypnotize Lu Xiaoman. With Ye Fan’s cultivation, hypnotizing Lu Xiaoman wasn’t complicated, and shortly after, Lu Xiaoman entered the dream realm.
But when Lu Xiaoman lost consciousness, she seemed unable to wake from the dream realm or discern anything within the dream. Ye Fan tried entering Lu Xiaoman’s dream realm but had no method.
At this moment, Ye Fan couldn’t feel any connection between any power and Lu Xiaoman, feeling quite stumped, wanting to help Lu Xiaoman yet knowing he couldn’t control the subtle power.
"I don’t know whether Xiaoman has entered the dream realm she described, but even if true, it’s hard to detect any clues. If things continue like this, while Xiaoman is tormented by the dream, I can’t help her—that’s the most painful part."
Ye Fan felt very apologetic towards Lu Xiaoman, wanting to help her yet lacking a better way, as Lu Xiaoman couldn’t express her true thoughts.
"Looks like I can only wake her up; I can’t let her endure more pain." Seeing sweat beads on Lu Xiaoman’s forehead and her pained expression, he hurriedly tried waking her, and as she opened her eyes, she embraced Ye Fan, seemingly yet to emerge from the dream realm.
"Ye Fan, I felt like I had a very long dream, but this time... Mr. Li wasn’t there. I don’t know why," Lu Xiaoman said.
"Then what did you dream of?" Ye Fan asked.
Lu Xiaoman earnestly replied, "It seemed like a very dark place, almost like the universe. I don’t know what it really is, lots of swirling clouds. It felt like there was a person, but very far away, I couldn’t see clearly who it is, only felt like they were holding an axe, as if it was a meaningful dream. Ye Fan, do you know what this dream means?"
Ye Fan shook his head and said, "I don’t know what you’re talking about, so knowing what’s in your dream is impossible. You needn’t feel bad, now that you’re awake, treat it as nonexistent."
