Heaven Path Dream Realm

Star Constellation Immortal Venerable shows Feng Jin Huang a video of the heaven path dream realms and asks whether she has seen this kind of dream realm. Feng Jin Huang has not. She speculates that present dream realms divide into three types by source: human path dream realms, whose source is humans or variant humans; beast and plant dream realms, whose source is beasts and plants that once existed or still live; and heaven path dream realms, whose source is heaven and earth itself. Star Constellation Immortal Venerable nods, and later treats that opinion on heaven path and human path dream realms as matching her own ideas. ^{ch. 2302}

She tells Feng Jin Huang to prepare to explore the heaven path dream realms in spectral heaven. Feng Jin Huang refuses. She is only a mortal, has no confidence in exploring dream realms of that level, and cannot guarantee her own safety. Star Constellation Immortal Venerable judges that she cannot conceal the heaven path dream realms, and that it is only a matter of time before the other two venerables know of them. Ying Wu Xie has been swallowed by one. She treats that as heaven’s will getting rid of the pawn, and holds that a dream realm that cannot be explored means Ying Wu Xie is done for. ^{ch. 2302}

Fang Yuan hears of them and calls the news good. He had been planning to create a heaven path venerable clone and was worried about his lacking heaven path attainment level when they appeared. He also judges that seizing them would probably incite another battle between venerables, and he turns first to refining another rank nine Immortal Gu. ^{ch. 2302}

Fang Yuan enters spectral heaven openly and goes straight to the heaven path dream realms. Giant Sun Immortal Venerable senses them and finds this dream realm the closest to the depiction in The Legends of Ren Zu. Star Constellation Immortal Venerable names them to him as heaven path dream realms. This is the first time Giant Sun Immortal Venerable knows of their existence. He agrees to ally with her to stop Fang Yuan obtaining them. ^{ch. 2307}

Fang Yuan sends dream butterfly Immortal Gu inside. It is an investigative Gu, and he soon learns the details. He judges that the price to create these heaven path dream realms is huge and that the Heavenly Dao definitely expended its true meaning. If he obtains them and absorbs that true meaning, he holds that the Heavenly Dao’s loss will become his gain, and that his attainment in some aspects of heaven path can become even higher than the Heavenly Dao. He does not treat that as heaven path supreme grandmaster, because there are still too many things in heaven path he cannot comprehend. He tells Star Constellation Immortal Venerable that he must have these dream realms. ^{ch. 2307}

Star Constellation Immortal Venerable sees a firm attitude from Fang Yuan that she rarely saw in their earlier fights, and she reads him as bent on gaining these heaven path dream realms. Fang Yuan wants to seize them. The prerequisite is to take control of the battlefield and gain territorial advantage. Star Constellation Immortal Venerable holds the same view. ^{ch. 2308}

Once Fang Yuan has the leisure to deal with the heaven path dream realms from afar, his first method is pure dream reality seeker transformation. Ordinary dream realms would be transformed into Pure Dream Reality Seeker bodies. The move has no effect on the heaven path dream realms. They are angered instead and form a tidal wave that rushes toward him. He reads them as filled with heaven’s will, while the transformation condenses a dream realm into a human body with human will as the core, so the heaven’s will would have to be removed first. ^{ch. 2309}

He then activates heaven’s will dissipation. The move is still effective, but the targeted heaven path dream realm shrinks rapidly. He judges the move usable against ordinary dream realms and an extremely crude measure against heaven path dream realms, because it removes heaven’s will and also eradicates the true meaning contained in the dream realm. He realizes that heaven’s will and heaven path true meaning are entangled in the heaven path dream realms, so they are hard to separate. His wisdom path methods are too rough to target only heaven’s will. He brings out his dream path clone Meng Qiu Zhen and lets a heaven path dream realm devour him. ^{ch. 2309}

Giant Sun Immortal Venerable joins Star Constellation Immortal Venerable because Fang Yuan wants the heaven path dream realms. If Fang Yuan absorbed all of them, Giant Sun Immortal Venerable holds that Fang Yuan would rise in power and change the power structure of the venerables. ^{ch. 2310}

Meng Qiu Zhen is already in a heaven path dream realm and is making good progress. Because of the sharing of the clones’ and main body’s attainment levels, Fang Yuan can feel his heaven path attainment level rising slowly. He treats that absorption as the benefit that matters, even while the two venerables suppress him on the surface. ^{ch. 2310}

Giant Sun Immortal Venerable feels it unwise of Fang Yuan to fight for the heaven path dream realms, then understands the decision: they are resources that can overturn the contest of the venerables. He also infers that Fang Yuan plans to develop heaven path. ^{ch. 2311}

Star Constellation Immortal Venerable activates a killer move of boundless azure radiance. The radiance shines on the dream realms. They go berserk, their shape distorting constantly. Fang Yuan reads this as her having a method to target the dream realms, cancels reverse flow protection seal, and rushes her. ^{ch. 2311}

After Meng Qiu Zhen enters, his vision changes and he finds that he has turned into a land spirit in the shape of a pink cloth doll. He uses that power to change and manage the blessed land in the dream. Fang Yuan had made preparations. Stealing heavenly secret could not fully understand the complexities of the heaven path dream realms, but it gave a clear idea of the general rules. Meng Qiu Zhen uses butterfly explores heavenly secret, a dream path investigative move with Dream Butterfly as the core, made specifically for heaven path dream realms. It can obtain details of calamities and tribulations in them in advance. The number it can probe is related to the power of the killer move and the size of the heaven path dream realm. ^{ch. 2311}

Heaven path dream realms are different from the past dream realms. To absorb the true meaning in them, one has to develop the dream realm blessed land while also comprehending the truth of the operations of heaven and earth. When Fang Yuan explored human path dream realms, he only needed to explore them to a certain degree to raise his attainment levels. Exploration of heaven path dream realms only maintains a close connection between the person and the heaven path true meaning. That link still has to be comprehended to raise the attainment level. Meng Qiu Zhen holds that there is a thin line separating the heaven path dream realm and the human. ^{ch. 2312}

Outside interference can shake the blessed land. Meng Qiu Zhen survives one such upheaval because he has dream armor Gu and because he chose a mid-size heaven path dream realm. He reads the shaking as interference from the outside world, probably a venerable, not as development of the dream realm itself. ^{ch. 2312}

Star Constellation Immortal Venerable observes the heaven path dream realm that swallowed Meng Qiu Zhen. Chaotic intent dispels dream is already the limit of her ability, because dream path restricts her. She is almost a blank slate in dream path, has no dream path Immortal Gu, and uses a large number of dream path mortal Gu as replacement, raising the killer move to rank eight through her wisdom path foundation. That limit is why she cannot save Fairy Zi Wei and Ying Wu Xie, who are trapped in heaven path dream realms. At most she could use this killer move to kill them. She needs Ying Wu Xie alive as a Spectral Soul clone, and she wants Meng Qiu Zhen dead, but the move’s activation has to be maintained. ^{ch. 2313}

She later lures Spectral Soul Demon Venerable into the group of heaven path dream realms. They do not do anything to him. The four venerables fight amidst the heaven path dream realms. As long as it is not a dream path killer move, even venerable killer moves cannot harm the heaven path dream realms. The heaven path dream realms do not attack Spectral Soul Demon Venerable, but they attack the other three venerables. Spectral Soul Demon Venerable attacks no matter who it is, including the heaven path dream realms, and his attacks are ineffective on them. Star Constellation Immortal Venerable then uses the surrounding heaven path dream realms as part of the chaotic battlefield. ^{ch. 2313}

Meng Qiu Zhen continues to explore the heaven path dream realms, raising his heaven path attainment level and his strength in the dream realm immortal aperture. He becomes a heavenly spirit and can control heavenly power, producing strength similar to calamities and tribulations. He also finds that heaven path dream realms can annex each other, which brings both risks and opportunities in the explorations. One manifestation is two dream realm immortal apertures annexing each other. As a heavenly spirit he has to lead his dream realm immortal aperture to suppress the other and even annex it, and a crucial step is to find and exterminate the other side’s heavenly spirit. ^{ch. 2319}

On the spectral heaven battlefield Star Constellation Immortal Venerable says there are almost no heaven path dream realms left, and that they have lost this battle. ^{ch. 2319}

Fire Gu at rank nine spreads blue fire that expands toward the heaven path dream realms. The dream realms shrink rapidly and are burned. Fang Yuan recalls that The Legends of Ren Zu stated that dream realms are restrained by fire Gu, and he treats what he sees as showing that statement to be true. While fighting, his heaven path attainment level has already advanced from grandmaster to great grandmaster, with deep accumulation. He judges that if he absorbed all of the heaven path dream realms here, he might even advance to supreme grandmaster, or at least had a high possibility of becoming a quasi-supreme grandmaster. Most of the remaining heaven path dream realms are destroyed by fire Gu. In the fighting that follows, there is almost none left, and Fairy Zi Wei, Ying Wu Xie, and Meng Qiu Zhen are all burning. ^{ch. 2320}

Giant Sun Immortal Venerable later scores the battle over the heaven path dream realms. He treats himself as the biggest loser of that fight, and he treats Fang Yuan as the one who obtained the heaven path dream realms. ^{ch. 2326}
