Thick smoke billowed, and the dark figure became clearer and clearer. Finally, she lifted up the flying dust, revealing a terrifying face. It was the Nightmare King who was knocked away by the little monkey's fists.
The stunning beauty that all men would go crazy for has long since disappeared, her clothes are ragged, her hair is unkempt, and the exposed parts of her body are still flashing with fire.
The most frightening thing is that haunting face. Half of it has been completely burned at this time, exposing the bright red flesh and blood. The hot steam lingers around her whole body, as if she is a devil from hell.
"Bastard, bastard, bastard, I changed my mind. I want your soul to sink into this dream and never be reincarnated."
Nightmare had fallen into a state of complete madness at this time. She had not suffered such a big loss for many, many years. She was still in the dreamland she had constructed, and her opponent was only an eighth-level monster and a monk who had entered the Infinite Realm.
"Old witch, you finally show your ugly face? Do you think that relying on cultivation to maintain your appearance can hide your despicable heart? It will only make people sick, you know?"
Li Mu, who knew that his plan had failed, no longer held back, raised his head with all his strength, and faced the nightmare that was getting closer and closer with a burst of "violent output", everything that had been said and unsaid in the two lives, I spat all the "blessings" I heard but dared not say at the enemy.
"Go ahead and enjoy your last moments, but if you can tell me how you blocked my attack that combined the power of space and dream just now, I might consider letting you suffer less pain."
At this time, the nightmare has returned to its original delicate appearance, and her eyes are coldly looking at Li Mu, who is still breathing fragrance. She still doesn't understand why a monk who has just entered the Infinite Realm can withstand her full blow.
As a dream builder, she should have absolute authority in every dream. Although this "miss" did not affect the overall situation, it was the first time that the "dream" that she was proud of was no longer perfect, so she Anxious to know the answer.
"Haha, do you think I will tell you? You are not invincible at all. If you leave this dreamland, you are just a soft-legged shrimp. You are only worthy of hiding in the shadows. Once you meet someone like Brother Baili or Patriarch Ling, If you are truly strong, you will only have the life of running around with your head in your hands."
But how could Li Mu let the enemy get what they wanted? He would seize this "flaw" and verbally attack again, trying to disturb the nightmare's mood, trying to gain the last moment to call Xiaopi, hoping for a miracle like when he fought against the Insect King. Such a comeback.
"You are right. Outside, I am indeed no match for the half-step ascension realm of your Li family, but in the dream I constructed, there are really not many people in this fairy world who can defeat me. You monks are against me. My understanding of dreams is so poor that I don’t even understand what a dream is.”
Hearing Li Mu's "sarcasm", Nightmare unexpectedly did not refute, but the second half of her sentence, which was just to show off her own advantages, exploded in Li Mu's ears.
"What... is it a dream? Yes, this is my dream. I should be the master of this dream. She is just a dream builder. In theory, her strength should depend on me. Myself."
Nightmare's unintentional words opened a door to a new world for Li Mu in a desperate situation. In fact, this king-level strongman of the "Blood" organization did not say anything wrong. In terms of understanding of dreams, the entire fairy world has no People can be better than others.
Only a strong person whose strength far exceeds that of Nightmare can break through the limitations of the dream through crushing cultivation. At least at the level of Xi Penglai Baili, this is not possible.
In addition, Nightmare is extremely cautious in his actions and will not easily use his dream powers on enemies whose cultivation level is higher than his own, thus creating his illustrious reputation as the King of Nightmares.
But it is this kind of cognitive gap that is "natural" in the eyes of nightmares, which has brought an unpredictable turning point to this dream war that has come to an end.
Because Li Mu is not from this world, and the place called "Earth" where he originally lived has many pioneers who have persistently explored the origin of dreams in the long history.
And it just so happened that there was one of the most famous pioneers, whose research results were widely disseminated. Even Li Mu, who spends time on the Internet every day, once read his book. This book is called "The Interpretation of Dreams". 》.
Facing the approach of death, Li Mu instantly stimulated all his brain cells to the extreme, constantly searching for the few words in the "Dream Authority" in his memory, trying to find the key to defeating the enemy.
Fortunately, his memory has been greatly improved after time travel. With the blessing of spiritual talent, the words in the book soon flashed in his mind like a slideshow. If he were the one who could only smoke Huazi in his previous life, Li Mu, who was playing games, definitely couldn't remember such crucial information.
"The pioneer named Freud said that dreams are the satisfaction of subconscious desires. In the waking state, people can effectively suppress the subconscious, so that desires that violate moral customs cannot be done as they please."
"But when a person enters a sleep state or a relaxed state, some desires will avoid the censorship of the subconscious mind, secretly emerge from the conscious level, and express themselves in various images. This is the formation of dreams."
"So, dreams are actually a substitute for human desires. It is the main way to release repression and experience the satisfaction of this coveted instinct in the form of fantasy."
"The fire of desire hidden in the subconscious is suppressed and cannot be satisfied due to practical reasons, and the impulse and repression in the subconscious are constantly fighting, forming a pair of contradictions, and then forming a driving force."
"This motivation makes desire find another way or satisfaction. This is a dream."
Li Mu suddenly understood. He finally understood the true core of the dream and how the Nightmare King did whatever he wanted in other people's dreams.
"Desire, the essence of controlling dreams is to control desires."
As if he had grasped a life-saving straw, Li Mu, who was about to sink into the sea of death, desperately tried to grasp the glimmer of hope. Now he has understood the nature of dreams, but if he wants to make a comeback, he still needs to find the desire to control. Methods.
"When I think about it, when I think about it, there must be something in that book about how to control desires."
Li Mu's silence made Nightmare finally give up questioning. He stretched out his right hand, and the colorful "cube" turned into a sharp cone, and pierced the vital point of his heart fiercely.
"Now that I think about it, it's subconscious!"
"Dreams are a manifestation of wish fulfillment, and the one who can control this manifestation is the subconscious mind. Why are there so many incredible things in dreams? It is precisely because the subconscious mind has relaxed its vigilance, so as long as I wake up my subconscious mind, then I can It’s unreasonable to control everything in dreams.”
Nightmare watched the seven-colored light flicker on Li Mu's chest. The next moment, the monk from the Cangyun Empire who had defeated the Black Mist King and the Hundred Snake King, and even the leader's clone could not be killed, would die completely in her hands. , although the process was slightly flawed, the result was still worthy of her joy.
"How can it be?"
