The realm that was originally filled with thunder fell into silence at this moment, but it was just the calm before the storm.
Then, countless crazy thunders seemed to be summoned by some kind of power. They gathered into sharp swords one after another, flashing with dazzling golden light, and shuttled between the thunderclouds.
At the moment when the giant snake swept through darkness and chaos and was about to engulf Li Muhan, all the sharp swords seemed to have found their targets, and they began to faintly point to the wave of darkness rushing towards Li Muhan.
"I will swallow your pain!! I will swallow your despair!! I will swallow your life!! I will make you live in a beautiful dream forever!!"
"Why don't you understand..."
Li Muhan sighed slightly.
"Everything!! Will fall silent in a dream!! In a dream!! You will become a part of me!! I will love you and love you!! I will give you everything you want!!"
Finally, the darkness came to Li Muhan's eyes, and the giant snake opened its huge mouth. There seemed to be a black hole hidden in the mouth, containing an endless abyss of darkness.
But Li Muhan saw the beautiful dream that the nightmare had weaved for him in the deepest part of the abyss.
In the dream, he can make up for all regrets, all shortcomings, and even find his parents, and truly live a happy life.
But so what.
If all this is just a dream...
"Then it's time to wake up from this dream!"
Fu Jiang Zhenmo slashed out again, thunder resounded across the sky, and all the swords that shuttled through the darkness stabbed at the giant snake.
"Everything, kill them all!"
boom--
The bodies of tens of thousands of thunder-tearing giant snakes dispersed the endless darkness.
Immediately, dream bubbles dissipated one after another, and the disappearance of each bubble meant the departure of a soul.
"no, do not want......"
When the giant snake's body was torn apart, the woman inside was revealed.
She cried and screamed, trying to catch the broken bubbles.
"No, no, no, please, please, don't go...don't go..."
Then Li Muhan saw souls walking out of the darkness one after another. Although the woman tried her best to catch them, the souls seemed to have figured out everything.
After waking up from the dream, everyone has a trace of loneliness on their faces, which represents the nostalgia for the broken dream and the separation from this world of mortals.
"Thank you......"
"But, we have to walk the rest of the way on our own."
"Sister, thank you."
"Thanks."
They smiled and said goodbye to the girl, and then disappeared one after another. The woman knelt on the ground, knocked one away, and then crawled to the other.
At last she clenched the hand of a soul.
"Don't go, please, don't leave... I can do better..."
Tears ran down his face.
But the soul didn't look at him, but looked at Li Muhan with a proud look.
"This kid is very strong, right?"
Soul grinned, revealing a pair of big yellow teeth that had been exposed to smoke for a long time.
As for Li Muhan, he was stunned after seeing the soul.
He wanted to rush over and say many words to the soul, but as soon as he took a step, the soul slowly raised his hand.
"Boy, you are qualified now."
After saying this, the soul began to slowly dissipate.
"Don't...don't..."
The woman was completely desperate. At the last moment when her soul disappeared, the man looked at Li Muhan and whispered.
"That sword strike just now was very handsome."
The dust of the soul was not caught by the woman in the end, all the darkness dissipated, and all the bubbles burst.
All souls have gone to where they should go.
Li Muhan raised his head blankly, looking at the light spots after the soul dissipated, his eyes changed from sadness to determination.
"…Thanks, Captain."
When everything calmed down, Li Muhan supported his tired body, sheathed his sword, walked to the woman's side and squatted down.
"...No matter whether you are a human being or an alien, you cannot live in a dream. The beauty you call is just a fragile bubble. It is just a dream after all."
"......sorry."
The woman's clothes now became tattered and her face was very pale. She slowly lowered her head, her messy hair covering her eyes.
"I just...want to give everyone a happy ending..."
"This is their end."
"...I'm sorry, maybe I am the one who has been troubled by nightmares."
As he spoke, Li Muhan noticed that the ground where the woman was slumped began to gradually form a darkness like a swamp.
"I was born in darkness, grew up in nightmares, and feed on pain, but I don't want to bring pain to anyone... Even if these people are dead, they are still being harassed by nightmares and are obsessed with the obsessions they had during their lives. Confused, so I..."
The darkness slowly began to grab the woman's body. She slowly raised her head and looked at Li Muhan with eyes red from crying with a trace of guilt.
"I'm the one who should go back to the nightmare the most, I'm sorry..."
Li Muhan quietly watched the woman being swallowed up by the darkness little by little.
"Thank you too...for not letting me make a big mistake."
"What will you do?"
Li Muhan asked.
"Returning to nightmares, returning to pain... This is the original intention of my birth, and this is what I should bear."
A nightmare that feeds on human nightmares and pain, but wants to bring a beautiful dream to humans.
From this perspective, she has violated the nightmare's law of survival.
And what is waiting for her now is the backlash, she will experience endless pain, for hundreds of years, thousands of years, until she is torn to pieces by the pain, and this may finally end.
The darkness had swallowed half of the woman's body, and she raised her head with difficulty to look at Li Muhan.
"Your eyes... are very beautiful. You can let me see such beautiful things in the end. Thank you very much."
Then the nightmare slowly closed her eyes, waiting for darkness and chaos to drag her body into the endless abyss.
Just when the darkness was about to climb up the woman's neck, a huge force suddenly wrapped around the woman's body that had been swallowed into the darkness.
"Eh?"
The woman opened her eyes in confusion, and the next moment, her body was suddenly pulled out of the darkness.
"I said you can leave?"
Li Muhan looked at the woman coldly. The thick devil's tail was currently restraining the woman's waist and pulling her in the air.
"......Why?"
The woman was very confused. She didn't understand why this demon wanted to kill her.
"What you did before violated the relevant regulations of the Special Administration Bureau. Since you made a mistake, you will be punished, and this punishment is not set by you."
Li Muhan grabbed the woman's tattered collar and stared into her eyes and asked.
"No matter what difficulties you encounter, people should live strong, and you should do the same. If you make a mistake, accept the punishment. Don't hide in the dark, you crybaby."
"...cry...crying bag?"
"Isn't it? How many times have you cried in front of us? Cry, cry, cry. Do you just know how to cry?!"
Being stared at so fiercely by Li Muhan, Nightmare's tears unexpectedly welled up in her eyes again.
"I'm sorry... ugh."
"Ahhh, don't cry! Don't cry!!"
"Ugh... I'm sorry, but I just love to cry. I can't help it..."
...
At the same time, the situation outside the tower also changed.
Just when the incense burnt out and Huang Zizai was about to let Chi Yuan strangle all the souls, things changed.
One soul after another began to turn into points of light and dissipated in the night sky.
"...Master? What is going on?"
Yue Linglong turned to look at Huang Zizai in confusion.
Huang Zizai, Monk and Sasha breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, a smile appeared on Huang Daochang's face for the first time.
"...Hehe, this kid really did it."
