Chapter 1419

Fang Yuan sends Hei Lou Lan into the dream realm inside a Pure Dream Reality Seeker Physique body to pull Ying Wu Xie out. Ying Wu Xie’s body escapes, but since he was at the center of the detonation, his soul remains trapped in the dream. Fang Yuan cannot unravel the dream realm itself, because Thousand Transformations’ will and Dancer Hong Yun would then wake and escape. The Pure Dream Reality Seeker Physique, created by Old Man Yan Shi with dream path dao marks as an attempted eleventh extreme physique, carries a huge flaw: once its time limit ends it detonates into a dream realm. Its advantage is that a body inside can enter and exit dream realms freely with the soul protected, as Hei Lou Lan and Bai Ning Bing once used such bodies to escape danger. Fang Yuan now repeats that same method. ^{ch. 1419}

After unravel dream frees him, Ying Wu Xie’s soul is injured, and Fang Yuan heals him fully with guts Gu. Dancer Hong Yun, only rank seven, will still be dreaming when she is pulled out, and Ying Wu Xie can then seal her with lead soul into dream. Thousand Transformations’ will is the real problem. A will weakens only by thinking inside the dream, and recovers the instant it leaves. If it is not depleted when Hei Lou Lan pulls Dancer Hong Yun out, it could unleash the unknown rank eight Immortal Gu against them. No killer move of another path reaches into the dream realm, so Hei Lou Lan cannot check whether the will is depleted before she pulls Dancer Hong Yun out. Lead soul into dream cannot be used on a will at all, since it has no soul. ^{ch. 1419}

Fully depleting the will would take three to five years, far too long since Thousand Transformations Ancestor could arrive and heaven’s will is closing in around the group. If the plan works, Fang Yuan stands to gain both Dancer Hong Yun and a new rank eight Immortal Gu whose powers remain unknown to him. Fang Yuan sets a limit of one day: Hei Lou Lan will then pull Dancer Hong Yun out and he will check whether the will is gone, while the rest hide at a distance. Before the day passes, Fairy Miao Yin senses Feng Jiu Ge approaching. He has escaped the River of Time and is closing fast. Fang Yuan abandons the plan at once, leaving the dream realm behind since even Heavenly Court’s Duke Long could not touch it, and the group teleports away with omni-directional travel. ^{ch. 1419}

Feng Jiu Ge finds them gone, and Heavenly Court’s Fairy Zi Wei sees the dream realm without any report from him and sends him after the group. He closes the distance rapidly despite repeated teleports. After half a day of chase across the desert, Fang Yuan stops running rather than keep spending the immortals’ own dao marks. Bai Ning Bing argues that Feng Jiu Ge is only rank seven and isolated out here from Heavenly Court’s rank eight reinforcements, and Fang Yuan agrees to wait for him. Bai Ning Bing reads the choice at once: with no time for an immortal Gu formation, the ground that Fang Yuan picked must be a special one. Feng Jiu Ge steps out of a golden door that appears after ancient zither music, greets them, and the group feels the huge mental pressure of his reputation. ^{ch. 1419}
